Nicolas's Grandfather passed away. The last thing he gave him was a nice house. An old Grimoire in the attic caught his eye. It contains several spells, rituals, and conjurations. Blowing off the dust. He then begins to read the ancient text.

Ba'lam a mighty ruler of hell, controls love and lust in humans. His appearance is a man, or a creature with horns. Since his marriage is rocky he decides to summon the mighty spirit. Finding six candles in boxes that were stored. A piece of chalk on a desk next to him. Moving things around to make room to perform the ritual.

Studying a few more of the pages. Mostly focusing on drawings of the circle and demons seal. "I can do this!" Taking a deep breath with confidence. He begins making a large circle and stands in it. Next lighting the candles and placing them on the outside. Following the directions given he glances at the sigil and calls the entity.

Raising one hand while holding the book in the other. His eyes turn upward in a trance state. The energy is different in the area. Music can be heard like trumpets playing. Shadows surround the circle. A bright green light enters the room.

Right above he looks up in amazement. Big red eyes watch and the face of a raging bull stares at him. Hearing a deep and strange voice. "Why have you woken me?" said the demon. Lost for words at the moment. Nicolas collects himself and stated his desire.

"I shall do as you ask." Very excited it worked. Quickly dismissed the magical king. Within a matter of minutes a car blows the horn. Looking out the blinds see's his wife. I better hurry up thinking to himself.

Trying to clean up fast so nothing can be found with the naked eye. Blowing out the wicks. Tossing the book of shadows in a safe spot. He rushes to open the window let it air out smells like smoke. Running down the stairs threw the kitchen and out the door. There she is waiting for him to help with the groceries.

"Hey Honey can you help me?" She said grabbing some Kroger bags. Lots of them are filled with good foods. Nicolas kisses her forehead. Then carries the heavy waters first. After getting settled she makes dinner." That fried chicken smells lovely." He said taken a small piece off and trying it.

Looking at him in a very romantic way. Watching as he eats more biting her lips. " Come over her " she said in a soft voice and kisses his soft lips. A thought pops in his mind. "This stuff must be working she's in a better mood." Dinner is finally made after a few minutes using the air fryer.

Rolls are in the oven on the way out. Smells so good with seasoned greens also. They both decide on a movie Netflix it is. Helen his wife can't keep her hands off of him. Clothes are coming off. The covers are up and things really start to heat up.

A picture gets tossed off the wall. Everything stops quickly. "Did you hear that?" she said looking lost. His face is under the covers then peeks out.

"Hear what baby?" As he continues wanting to have more fun. She shakes her head and joins back in. Kisses back and forth along with a bang. They both jump up. "I really heard something." she said loudly taking the blanket.

In the bathroom the windows fog up and a face forms. The door locks there's no where to run. She knocks hard as she can crying to get out. Her husband even try's to get it open, but no luck. Breaking down the door getting her out. Something will not let them leave.

"Go get help!" he said as she takes the car. Trapped in his own house as the shadows surround him. Making his way upstairs, and reciting the magic words written in his grandfathers writing. The green light vanishes without a trace. Be careful what you wish for is seen on the back of the book. Hell's gates are now open.
