Deal?
(Sebastian Michaelis)
At first look you are an ordinary girl, average height, chest size and weight, with (h/l)(h/c) hair and big (e/c) eyes, you looked so innocent and sweet, but if someone were to look into your eyes they would see the suffering of your past, the pain you had felt and the hideous things you had seen.
If anyone looked at you long enough to see that, they simply turn and start walking the other way, you didn't care, as far as you were concerned they were no different than the people that had destroyed your life.
One particular cloudy day you were roaming the streets, not looking for anyone or going anywhere you were just wandering, when suddenly it started to pour down with rain, not wanting to get wet you ran to find cover under a nearby building, in your haste, you ran straight into someone, the force of the impact knocked you back, you waited for the hard concrete to make contact with your body … but the expected pain never came, instead 2 warm, strong arms wrapped around your waist and suddenly your feet were no longer on the ground … you were being carried? You should have struggled but for some unknown reason you felt safe in the arms that now held you.
When your feet hit the ground and the arms left your waist you were left feeling cold and empty, you opened your eyes to see a tall and very handsome man standing in front of you. Usually you would have just thanked the stranger and walked off, but this man held your attention, you found yourself lost in his eyes, they were a deep shade of red, almost like blood.
You were so captivated that you didn't even notice that he was speaking to you until he placed his hand on your shoulder and asked if you were ok.
"Oh … yes I'm fine, thanks for helping me back there" out of your trace, you gave him a quick smile, turned on your heel and started to walk away. You didn't get very far before you there was a small pressure on your wrist and you were pulled back onto his chest.
You immediately started to struggle, the memories of your brother mangled corpse and the sight of your parents disfigured bodies came flooding back.
"Let me go you 2 faced son of a bi-"
"That is no word that should come out of a lady's mouth" you could basically hear the smirk in his voice, you could feel his hot breath on our ear as he spoke "tell me … what exactly did you see that night?" his voice had dropped, sounded more gentle and the grip on your body lessened.
You slumped in his arms.
"I saw a man force his way into our house, my father jumped to my defence and ended up with a bullet in his head, my mother was next, after they defiled her body they killed her with one of our kitchen knives. Then they got my brother and broke every single one of his bones before they killed him … when it was all over I begged them to kill me, but they refused, they wanted to see how long it would take me to break" you had tears running down your cheeks
"A single man?" he asked. 'really? Out of everything you just said he focused on the fact that there was. Only. One. Man.'
"I-I think so" everything was quiet for a few minutes … suddenly you were turned and you saw nothing but the deep red of his eyes.
"What would you do if I told you that I could absolutely destroy the man and the company that killed your family" you let out a small sigh and laugh, but when you looked back into his eyes and saw that he was dead serious.
"Well … where do I sign" he gave you a small smirk, which you returned
"I'm a demon, so you must choose the place I will put my mark" at first you thought this man was absolutely crazy, there was no such thing as Angels and Demons or Satan and God, but then his eyes started to glow with an abnormal power, turning from their usual blood red into a bright fuchsia.
Did you really want to do this? Sell your soul to the devil? Was it really worth it?
"I have one question before I 'sign' … what summoned you? How did you find me?"
"When I found you and saw the veil of death that constantly surrounded you, I looked into your soul expecting to see a dark soul full of hate and despair, but that's not what a found, despite the pain and suffering you had seen your soul was still a sparkling gem, pure. A tasty treat. Then there was only one thing to do after that … make a deal with you."
"Deal … put your mark on the back of my neck, my hair will cover it there" he moved behind you, pushed your hair away. First you could feel his soft cold lips on the back of your neck that sparked a warmth, then that warmth quickly transformed into a searing pain started spreading, moving all over your body, you lost all the strength in your body and fell backwards into his arms.
When you were able to move again, you pushed off his chest and turned to him, he immediately put his lips to yours, the kiss was short but so full of promise,
"Command me, My Lady"
