Making a deal with a demon

Ethan ran. Like everyday, he ran. Everyday he was so eager to get away from the people around him. The ones that are blind to the truth and laugh at his claims.
"Hey Runner" Jake jumped out from the ally, blocking the way with his larger then life stature, eerily grinning down at his next target.. "Runner" was one of Ethan's least favorite nicknames. "Where are you going at such an hour?"
"Oh, nowhere" Ethan stepped back, keeping his expression cold and emotionless.
"Oh really? It looks like your going back to the cemetery. Gonna go ghost hunting again?" He laughed mockingly, Ethan could have sworn seeing a couple of Jake's goons shuffling in the dark ally but as the sun set it made it more difficult to make sure.
"Their demons, not ghosts. And no, I'm just going to the pharmacy before going ba-" His words where quickly cut as someone griped on both his shoulders so aggressively that he was sure that his collar bone was about to break.
"Oh really? Well I think we can take care of that for you" Jake held his palm out patiently.
"No" Ethan replied, trying to stop fear from spilling out along with his words.
"No?" He clenched his fist. "Wrong answer"
"No catch!"He lifted his hands defensively. "Just the usual payment method! All I need is a cup of your blood! That's all!"
"A cup? Why so much?" Ethan wasn't particularly surprised by his payment method. Suicide always used to tell him stories of his past jobs. Some poor soul wants him to kill someone, he asks for some blood and he gets to work. However he also gets to keep the victims soul in strange playing cards. Ethan never understood that.
"There where four people in total, that's a cup! And... you don't have to give it to all at once... I'd like to savor it" He wiped the droll from his mouth. He always used to say how he could sense how "rich" a person's blood is by the smell. Apparently Ethan's what the "richest" smelling he's sensed in a while. He promised that he wasn't "friends" with him for that reason and that he actually found the mortal entertaining,  whatever that meant. The demon held his hand out patiently, strange black testicles curled around his figurines (which he always used to use to play pranks). "What do ya say!"
Ethan froze for a second. Mentally debating if he should or shouldn't accept his offer.
"And since I like you! I'll give back all the money they stole from you before this incident! Aren't I nice?"
That was all he had to say.

WHOOO! I DID IT!

I had this on my mind for a while. I'd love to hear your thoughts on this!
Btw Silos is a sort of Demon species called "Periculum Demons" which keep the souls of their victims as a playing card form which can be used as currency between other Periculum Demons as well as an ingredient to reviving the dead. And yeah, they are mostly immortal as they are demons. They remain alive as long as they eat and not get killed however they can quickly regenerate their body parts and organs similar to the Ghouls in Tokyo Ghoul. They don't have to drink blood however human blood does strengthen them as well as it tasting really good for them. They have to eat regular food though. Unlike humans who need about 2000 calories a day, demons need around 3000 calories. So fast foods are really good for them, however most hate grease.
They can turn invisible to humans and become visible as they please, however some humans are born with the ability to see them regardless if the demon wants to be seen or not (e.g. Ethan).  And no, their not all evil like what most people believe.
P.s. Periculum means "risk" in Latin

If you have any question on the species please ask away!

And I love Silos so much. He's my heart bro- I MEAN my baby XD
