“Let’s make a deal.” He whispers into my ear.

” Deal? What kind of deal?” I asked while my feet won’t stop trembling. One thing that I knew for sure is that he isn’t some normal human. But what is he exactly?

“Nothing serious just a simple deal. You give your body when the right time comes.” His completely pitch-black eyes are terrifying me as he speaks. Give my body? What does he mean by that? So, I exactly asked that.

“What does that mean?” my voice shaky but I am still trying to stand my ground and come across as confident as I can. Not that I am doing a job at it, looking at my wobbly legs and fear-stricken face. Yeah, I am being obvious but shoot- who won’t freak out in front of weird creature. God knew what he is capable of. That is why me being able to hold a conversation with this thing without fainting is enough of an achievement for me.

“Simple I just want you to give your body to me when the time comes. You only have to agree to this condition and your mother will be strong and healthy again.” He told me in his deep voice which gave my whole-body shivers- not the pleasure ones. It was horror.

“So, if I agree my mom will wake up now?” I ask again just to be sure that I have heard him correctly at the very first time.

“Yes, only that. Isn’t it simple!” he is looking at me, waiting for my reply.

Am I really going to do this? Have I lost my mind to listen to this crazy thing? But day by day my mother’s condition is getting worst. There has been no sign of improved and now all had even slipped into coma. I can’t see any hope. I have been praying God, begging him all this time to make my mom alright but God has turned deaf ear to all of my pleadings. Maybe this is my only chance? Maybe this is the miracle that I have been looking for.

“Okay but before I agree I need to know what are you exactly.” He is something supernatural there was no denying in that but the question is what is he out of all those supernatural things.

“Demon… I am a demon.” The moment those words leave his mouth my head starts to spin. What the freaking fuck! He is a demon.

“Like the demon kind of demon.” I stutter. All of a sudden, I am feeling like my throat has gone dry and I choke on my own saliva.

“Yeah, the demon, demon.” And he smirks as if he has just cracked the funniest joke. But hello, I am not laughing if anything I am losing my shit.

“You mean demons are real?!” I guess I am dreaming. It must be some sick dream. There is no way that demons actually exist.

“You are looking at me right now.” He points out as a matter of fact. So apparently demons do walk on earth. They are not some characters of childish horror movie.

“How can I trust you?” well he maybe kidding. I can’t believe just because he says so. What if he is actually trolling me.

He doesn’t say a word. Stay quite anticipating his answer. But he never does. Instead, he just glares at the street light and it starts flicker and then the bulb explodes. And as if it isn't enough, he stretches his hand out and raises my car in the air like it weighs nothing, without even touching it. I blink once, twice but no my car is in the air until he decides that it was enough and my car falls down on the ground forcefully with a loud thud sound.

“I guess now you believe me.” He says finally looking at me again. I have my mouth clamped shut. I have no idea what to say. Should I just scream the hell out and run way from here. But then what about my mom. She is only family I have got. I can’t just go.

“Don’t be afraid I am harmless.” He tries to assure me when he catches onto my fear. And I suppose to trust that because a demon says so, the joke is on me.

“I won’t let anything happen to you. You are important Alissa. I need you and you need me so stop with these terrifying expressions.” He is right he must have something in this deal for him self that is why he is here. Yeah, my body right.

“Now, you agree with the condition?” he questions me and all my doubts are thrown out of the window when I think about my mom. I need to do this for her.

“Yes, I agree.” I reply with a little nod and he grins.

“Great! Let’s seal the deal now.” He starts to close off distance between us and before I could wonder how we were going to seal a deal; his lips capture mine. It’s a kiss.

He sucks onto my lower lip I moan. My hands seem to have their own mind as my hand snakes around his neck while other ruffles his hair and I hear him groan into my mouth as our tongues fight for dominance. We don’t break the kiss and I don’t know, maybe it is my hormones acting up but it felt so good that I didn’t want it to end. With our chests collided and no distance in between, the kiss grows more heated and passionate.

His tongues swipes over my lips before I finally give him and let him take the lead. His tongue enters my mouth and a delightful grunt leaves his plum, sexy lips. His lips are so soft and full, I swear that they are meant to be kissed, totally kissable. The way he groans make my knees go weak and a weird sensation raises in my lower region. This is better than signing any contract. Which reminds me, I just made a deal with a devil.
