A Deal with the Devil
He smirked, knowing he was on the winning side. "So it's a done deal for three months?" He raised his eyebrows, putting his hand forth for a handshake. I looked at the long fingers and perfectly aligned nails and then at his patient face. Sighing to myself I my own hand into his and ignored the tingles that flowed through every nerve as his fingers curled around my hand and shook it lightly. "Yeah three months." "Goodnight then." He winked, removing his hand from mine and turned to walk away. "Hey wait!" I called out, suddenly remembering something. "You don't have my number." "What makes you think that? I have my ways Smith." And with one last wink I saw him take a turn and disappear from my sight. I let out a long breath, leaning on the nearby wall. Looks like I just made a deal with the Devil. * A sarcastic girl, a cocky guy. Throw in some mystery, murder, filthy jokes, wonderful friends, tons of kisses, secrets, surprises, eye-rolls and a killer on run. And you have got yourself a story never read before. ***So grab a cup of hot chocolate, some chips and a warm blanket and get ready to laugh, cry and bite your lip in anticipation. Enjoy!!

Chapter: Chapter 27 - Cast of Magic Mike XXL is effing hot.$ChapterChapter 27 - Cast of Magic Mike XXL is effing hot.~~~Colton's POVI stared at my soon-to-be ex-girlfriend and ignored the pang in my heart at the word 'ex'. This was what was for the best, I tried telling myself but the look of pure devotion and authority on Racheal's face made that thought disappear. She looked like a woman on a mission and all I wanted to do was take her right there, right then which I knew wouldn't be appreciated. Stupid hormones!I had gotten so damn excited when she agreed to get a room just a few minutes back and then was nervous when she suddenly stopped, I thought she was regretting her decision of getting intimate with me which was stupid because every girl wants to be intimate with me. But the look of panic and distress on her face made me go crazy with worry. And her next words about knowing the killer were definitely not calming me. That girl drove me crazy!She had just suffered a trauma, I had no clue what memory she accessed when her eyes gla

"Yeah okay okay baby, okay" I teased, spreading my feet vertically, getting comfortable on the couch.Colton of course can't see me in any sort of comfort

Chapter: Chapter 34 - Why are you not naked? The last chapter! Thank you for sticking around and being so awesome. Thank you for reading it all and tolerating the errors and flaws. I really hope you enjoyed this book! And hopefully you weren't a silent reader. Love ya! -- Chapter 34 - Why are you not naked? ~~~ "What do you think you are doing?" I jumped at the sudden sound, pressing a palm to my heat. "Dammit Colton, you scared me." I muttered turning around to face him. I almost stumbled back at the view, Colton stood there, proudly exhibiting his naked glory. I swallowed, hard, vivid images from yesterday's night invading my mind. The way he moans, screams, and gasps I muffled with a kiss. The way I took pleasure in his bliss. Head titled back and toes curled with joy, I felt a thrill run through me. I knew I wanted to do all of it, again and again, I was in deep trouble, oh boy! Colton stalked towards me, his eyes barely leaving mine. "What are you wearing?" I blinked at the question and looked down at my outfi

Chapter: Chapter 33 - Make me scream again.The story is ending....:( But on the brighter side, this chapter is naughty! So, you'll like it :P Intimate scenes ahead, you are warned. Proceed with caution. -- Chapter 33 - Make me scream again. ~~~ The funeral was torture. Everyone dressed in black with teary faces and a miserable body language, even the weather seemed to cooperate, it was drizzling lightly putting a gloomy envelope over us. It wasn't my first time attending a funeral, I had attended one, my own father's, 4 years back. And though that one was fake, I was sure this one wasn't because this was an open casket and I could see the silent pale dead body. I gulped, feeling my tears in the eyelids, I blinked them off. Looking around I realized I knew quite a few people. My eyes stopped as they landed on my father's rigid body, his eyes strained on the coffin. People talked beside him but he was too focused on the dead body to listen to their words. As if sensing my gaze, he looked up, sending me a sad smile. I b

Chapter: Chapter 32 - One day we'll get married and have kids.Chapter 32 - One day we'll get married and have kids. ~~~ Hospitals and I didn't have much contact, the only time I had visited one was when Josh thought it would be funny to jump on the bed and ended up falling and spraining his wrist and ankle. But right now, right here, the huge white hallway felt too small, almost suffocating. The distinctive smell of chlorine didn't help at all. Everything seemed so blurry, my eyes couldn't focus on anything. Nurses dressed in pale blue rushed with plates, hardly glancing anywhere else. The speaker in the hospital called for some doctor for an emergency. A kid shouted some distance apart and was instantly scolded by his mother to shut up. Somebody let out a pained cry and instantly there were whispers of consolidation. I gripped the handle of my seat tightly, swallowing the ball of fear. My eyes closed and I hoped I would never have to come to a hospital again. "You fine?" I jumped up a bit, startled, and looked at Simone. I couldn't even no

Chapter 31. - The bleeding won't stop! ~~~ Finding my voice after a few seconds, I found the courage to utter the word to the person I never thought I would see again. "Dad?" "Well isn't this joy? Now I get to shot father and daughter." Angelo said, smiling like a devil. And then two shots rang through the night. -- "Don't talk to me." "But babe!" "Get lost." "Honey, I am sorry." "Go pee on yourself." "Very mature." Mom looked through hooded eyes at my dad. "Really Ashton? Do you really want to set fire to my anger?" Dad raised his hands, shook his head wisely, and took a good step away from her. Mom rolled her eyes, giving dad another stink look, and went and stood beside Liam. I wanted to shout, scream, scold them to stop acting like children and start realizing the deep shit that we were in but I had basically lost my voice or the will to speak. We were all huddled up in mom's room at my place, seeking comfort from each other, and

Chapter: EpilogueThank you for being such an amazing reader! I love you! Epilogue "Oh my god! Push it harder." I groaned. "I am trying." Bryan said breathlessly. "Try harder and do it fast." "Why don't you move and help me too?" He huffed, trying to push it deeper. I smiled slickly, spreading my legs wider on the bed. "Because this is the guy's job." He gritted his teeth and with one last push it finally reached inside. We both exhaled in contentment. "Finally." "I told you it was too big to enter." Bryan said smugly. I just rolled my eyes. "But it did right?" "Thank god you two finally managed to push the damn box inside the drawer." Logan remarked, entering the room. I stuck out my tongue. "The guest bed and couch are in place?" He nodded. "Yeah though Alan and Ian did most of it. Since my leg is still unfit." He grinned haughtily. "Please it's been almost two years since that incident and we all know you can run a marathon now." I snorted, smacking his back. Logan smirked. "Hey don't

Chapter: Chapter 33The last chapter! :( Who else is sad this is ending??? -- Chapter 33 - Wrap it before you tap it. ~~ It was awkward. Super-duper awkward. I glanced through my eyelids as my dad shifted on the beige colored couch, picking up his coffee mug from the table all the while glaring at the extremely uncomfortable Bryan, or at least trying his best to glare. Connor sat beside my dad stifling a smile. I and mom were huddled on the opposite chair, glancing nervously at the scene playing in front of us. "So..." My dad cleared his throat, pausing as he thought of something to say. "Your name is Bryan." And that is what he comes up with! To say my father couldn't interview my boyfriend was the biggest understatement. "Yeah." Bryan nodded, touching his blue shirt collar anxiously. This was probably the first time he was wearing a shirt that too with a tie. He looked pretty hot and I would have kissed him senselessly if my father wasn't in front trying his best to act strict. "Why are you

Chapter: Chapter 32Chapter 32 - The python turned into a butterfly. ~~ I hated hospitals. The smell of bleach filled my nose and I wrinkled it, not liking the smell even a bit. The corridors seemed stuffy as families huddled in corners weeping and hugging each other. The walls so empty and plain reflected the lives of many people present here. The floor shined brightly, way too brightly as the workers kept wiping it even though it was more than clean. Nurses moved swiftly, only stopping to give sympathetic smiles. Doctors rushed all over the place, their faces twisted with tension. My blank eyes drank in the scene without any emotion. I felt hollow and extremely guilty. My back pressed against the wall and my hands buried in my pockets, I knew I never wanted to come back to hospitals again. "No! Please try. He can't die yet. Just try one more time. I beg you, please." I blinked at the commotion. A young lady with a small boy in her hands wept uncontrollably as she begged an old doctor to save some

We need her alive."Alan and Ian fought as they gripped a furious Anastasia's arms tightly while Connor, Logan and Max were busy fighting the bodyguards. Dylan was throwing punches at Riyaz and Blacky was hitting Scar-face. Wait! What? Blacky is on our side? Woah.My eyes finally settled on Bryan who was regarding me with cautious eyes. I allowed my eyes to roam all over him. Those messed up hair, honey brown eyes, kissable lips, thin layer of beard over his jaw, the way his red tee clung to his sweaty chest and his faded black jeans. He was a tremendous sight and all mine. Just as I was about to run to him and kiss him senselessly something hit my back from behind.I turned and saw Mr. Unfamiliar’s back to me

Oh yes, apparently minds works in a ridiculously dirty way when bored. Mr. Unfamiliar slapped Ian's back as a warning and I pressed my lips together fighting the bubbling laughter."Make sure they reach there. No more drama. I'll call the others." Mr. Unfamiliar said to Alan and walked off.As soon as he disappeared round the corner, Ian and I burst into laughter."Go deeper inside." Ian repeated walking ahead. "We are all going deeper inside, it'ssohuge."I laughed even more, clutching my stomach. "Shut up Ian and find thespot.""Go right." Alan said from behind us and I detected masked laughter.

I couldn't. I was frozen in complete shock."You are a pathetic excuse for a friend." He snarled.Alan stumbled back from the punch but held himself together. The blank vile expression on Alan's face didn't change. He spat on the ground and looked at Ace with so much hatred that it even shook me to the cores."You are a pathetic excuse for a gang member." Alan sneered. I blinked my eyes hoping that the Alan I knew would come back.Where was the friend who held me when I fell in my freshman gym sessions? Where was the friend who made me smile when I was feeling low? Where was the friend whom my mother adored and let him have the cookies even though he dropped crumbs all over the floor

I breathed out as he took another step closer, standing so close that I could see his eyelashes under the dim light."I need you to answer this." he replied, looking into my eyes. I felt my breath hitch, as I felt his eyes leave mine and travel below, stopping at my lips. Unconsciously I licked my lips, his lips darkened and his face came closer, or was it mine that went closer to his? I didn't care.One more breath and I would feel his lips on mine.

Chapter: Chapter 42.Chapter 42. I should make you wear my red lingerie.I started at the creepy line of warehouses with a shiver running down my spine. There were three and all of them looked worn down.How did Athena even know about this place? Or was it Ray’s idea?Either way, the place was old, deserted, and looked pretty haunted. Perfect for hiding. Perfect for killing.I took small steps towards the first warehouse, my car was parked a few blocks away to avoid attention. My eyes scanned over the place but it was so silent except for the annoying noise of crickets.As I neared the place I paused straining my ears to hear any movement or noise from inside the warehouses but it was still silent. I wondered if they were even in there, maybe it was just a hoax. I quickly looked around for any signs of cameras but I couldn’t see them either.“Wow.” I whispered to myself. “I can’t bel

It’s not from your ex-boyfriend. It’s from your future husband.”Ray Parker’s haughty cackle was the one to haunt me forever.“So are we burning that fish now?”I stared at the talking fish in ultimate horror.“Is-” I took in a shaky breath, clutching on the couch for support, afraid that I might faint from shock and fear. “Is that Ray?”“I am afraid so.” Zivah’s voice shook, coming closer to me. I could feel the waves of fear coming from her too. “Do you think he can see and hear us?” she whispered into my ears.I continued t
