CROWLEY POV
Damn. I'd heard of the attraction between mates. The stories anyways, but that kiss… My dick was going to be hard for a while. She tasted sweet like candy and I'll be damned if I don't have a craving for it now. I wanted to taste her everywhere, see if I could find other flavors to. Devour her till she screamed my now. Those little moans alone would haunt my very thoughts every time I looked upon her now. I wanted to woo her though so I needed to be patient but still I couldn't help but be pleased she agreed to our deal. It was clever if I do say so myself, she expected a deal after all and with this she will be bound to me. She is mine.
I grab her hand and lead her back inside to her seat at the table and sit her down. I lean forward to pull the laptop closer to her. When I glance up I see Castiel smile and mumble 'lucky bastard'. It seems my mate has corrupted poor Cassy with her potty mouth. Usually I'm the one causing corruption, I can only imagine the trouble we will create together. Glancing back at the computer,
"See this folder here." I say pointing to the one labeled new soul's. "This is really quite easy. Each page you click on in the folder will show information on one of our new souls. It will tell you why they were sent to hell. All the things sins they have committed, their age and so on. At the bottom of their page will be a box. You simply decided what level of punishment you think they deserve. It's a scale of 1 – 5. 1 as the easiest and 5 as the worst possible torture you can imagine. Then simply save. When you are done I will email it back to my advisor."
"So I'm deciding what they deserve?"
"Exactly. You seem like someone who is honest in their judgements, also you know what the consequences of their actions throughout their life could cause to someone else. I'm sure you will see plenty similar to something you have been through. Who better to judge than someone who understands the plights of others and is as honest as you."
I found myself blushing at that. "Thanks Crowl. I can handle this, don't worry. Focus on the crossroad deals."
"Very well, I will be working at the table with you. I can do that work from my phone."
Castiel stepped closer, "I am going to check on the state of heaven. I'll be back later." You hear the flapping of his invisible wings before he was gone.
She worked diligently for hours without a single complaint. I had to force her to stop when her stomach growled.
"Take a break Bella darling. I'm going to order us some food."
"Okay, I think I'll go shower and change."
As she walks over to her bag to grab her things, I go to reach for the computer to see how much she had gotten done but I get distracted by her ass in those skin tight pants. Feathers was right, I am a lucky bastard. Bella is by far the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. Anyone who would leave or turn their back on her was a damn fool. After she walks into the bathroom and closes the door I'm finally free to clear my mind of the deliciously naughty things her very presence brings to my thoughts. Ordering our food only took a moment, while I waited for it to be delivered I checked her work. She already had a couple hundred souls done. It was impressive. I noticed in her work that anyone who was involved in the harming of children was automatically a 5 to her. Which in fact was what I always put as well. I only checked a few because I trusted her judgement but the ones I checked she labeled just as I would have as well. I placed the computer back as I heard the knock on the door. By the time the food was payed for and placed on the table, Bella was out of the bathroom and putting her things away.
Her hair still damp and clinging to her face and neck. It had slight curls in it from the moisture. It was sexy as hell. Another pair of skin tight jeans that made her ass pop out. A large baggy shirt that slid off one shoulder showing her creamy skin. She left off shoes and socks, leaving her feet bare and I'll be damned if I didn't find her toes were sexy to. Everything about her was perfect.
"I hope you don't mind Italian darling. I was craving pasta."
"God I can't remember the last time I had pasta. That sounds great."
Sighing, "How many times must I tell you, not God. CROWLEY. C-R-O-…"
She popped me in the shoulder on the way to her seat. I chuckle. Girl just hit the King of Hell. Ballsy little thing. She grabs her food and twirls the spaghetti around the fork.
"You know just because you're a king your majesty doesn't mean you have to be a royal dick." She grins before taking a bite.
I don't need to eat but I always have. The food some humans made were quite delicious and I finally had someone to enjoy a meal with. Even though we are eating and continuing our work at the same time, I don't mind. Her company is all I need for now. I will never pressure my mate for more than she is ready for. Right now this is still just a business arrangement to her even if the sparks between us are strong.
She only eats half of her food before closing it back up and continuing our work. About another hour later I remembered what I wanted to talk to her about.
"I've sent some demons that used to be vampire's out to find the Cullen's. They are going to keep me updated on everything they do once they find them."
"Awesome. Thank you Crowley. Do you know anything about them yet?"
"Not really, they haven't been found quite yet but I'm sure they will be before the week is up. However I did learn that Jasper was not a part of the coven."
"Yea I figured they abandoned him like they did me. I hope he is alright."
"I could help you find out about that as well than. He is important to you?"
"I truly considered him a brother. It's the way I feel when I'm around Cast."
"Then I will find him for you as well. He may want to help with revenge on the Cullen's after all."
"I honestly didn't think of that but you are right. He deserves the choice at least."
"Very well. I will have the one's I sent to the Cullen's listen for anything involving Jasper. I'm also curious, we know exactly where the shifters are since they don't leave their land. Do you want to get revenge on them first or on everyone at once?"
"We can do the pack first. I think having them all at once would cause too much trouble. Like you said they stay on their land so it'll be easy to get done fast. Plus Cast said he can bind their spirit so they can't shift. Cast will probably want to be there for it, he seemed pissed about the whole thing."
"I was Bell. And I do want to be there, I want to see their faces when they find out they hurt the friend of an angel and their actions go against the very reasons God made them in the first place." We both turn to see Castiel leaning against the patio door.
"Well than Darling. That's planned, we can even take care of it in a couple days if you like. I just want to catch up on some more of this work."
"Sounds good to me Crowl…" Bella grabs the rest of her food and waves it at feathers. "You need to eat again for your vessel Cast." I watch as the angel obeys and reaches for the food than begins to eat. "I have to admit though guys… I'm a little scared. I want this more than anything but they nearly killed me last time I was there. I'm not even allowed to go back to visit my own father's grave."
I growl at this, "You have my word they will not come anywhere near you Bella. Feathers and I will kill them first. While we are there we will pay respects to your father. I will take you to see him whenever you wish."
Castiel hums and nods his head in agreement while stuffing his face with food causing my little mate to giggle.
"I know. I don't think I can be scared with the two of you by my side. Just…. Don't leave me." She whispers.
"Never." We both say at the same time. She smile's while still typing on the computer.
"What about the other? Victoria correct?" says Castiel
"I've yet to find her. She is constantly moving probably searching for Bella. I'm not sure where to even look now."
Laughing grabs our attention Castiel and I look upon Bella wondering what had come over her. She's staring at my computer and laughing so hard tears are in her eyes.
"This is just too fucking good! Oh my God." She clutches her stomach. "Well I think I know exactly how to find Victoria and trap the bitch now. Secondly, Crowl is there a worse punishment in Hell than level 5?"
"Yes, there is one. You put an S instead of a number. How do we trap Victoria?" I ask my mate.
"Take an S you damn cunt." She mumbles while typing on my computer than looks up at us. "When I go to bury my mother that Victoria just killed. She will probably be waiting for the funeral just to get to me. We can grab her before she grabs me and kill her. Well torture than kill her after what she did to my dad."
"Bell how do you know she just killed your mother? And are you not upset that she is gone to?" Castiel asks and I have to admit I'm curious upon the answer myself as well.
"No, I hate my mother, especially now." She turns her head away not looking us in the eye.
"Why Bella darling?" I ask.
She turns the computer around and pushes it over to me.
"See for yourself. She's apparently one of your new souls. And don't you dare change that S Crowley." My mate hisses while getting up and stretching. "I'm getting some air." She mumbles and walks out onto the patio where I can still see her.
