Chapter One/ Part two

Macy/

Last night was supposed to be another night of freedom where I could indulge. But things didn't go that way since the man I choose happened to be a saint inside of a bar. Most makes would seize the moment presented but he just put me to bed. How did I even fall asleep I felt awake but then I drank what he made and felt sleepiness wash over me. The smell of breakfast was flowing freely through the house which my stomach couldn't resist the need for the substance.

The moment my feet touched the ground I could walk so freely but normally I stumble. The hangover is also missing this entire thing is so strange. After entering the kitchen the smell of eggs and tea brewing was strong. I felt ravenous for food.

" Mmm... Good Morning I'm surprised I don't have a hangover, how are you holding up."

 " Alcohol doesn't affect me. I made you some light breakfast before you head out I'll have my driver take you home when you eat."

 " I have a great memory when I get drunk and I'm curious why we didn't have sex."

" Because I don't indulge in half-measured pleasures. Consider yourself lucky, going home with strangers can be dangerous."

" So you keep saying with that devil talk but all I hear and see is a gentleman before me."

" Have you never seen a devil be a gentleman."

" They don't exist in this world, you are one or the other. But on that note, I need to get home so I don't miss my job interview. Thanks for breakfast"

Much to what I said he escorted me outside like a gentleman would and just like that I was heading home. However, I didn't have much time to get ready for my interview after arriving home. Managing to be presentable before rushing out the door to hopefully my new workplace. The offered amount for a secretary's salary was insanely high how could I not take it.

The moment I entered I was greeted by a friendly face who took my information. Hopefully, they don't mention my lateness today since it was nearly thirty minutes late to arrive here. While flipping through a magazine an older gentleman in a butler-like outfit greeted me. At first, I thought he was needing something.

" Miss Macy Evans, I am Deacon please come with me. We are running late so try to keep up with me as I balance between my work and the interview."

I quickly nodded before hopping up to follow him as we traveled the floors of this building. Everything he was telling me about my responsibilities and how things run was standard enough. This wasn't my first time in this position either so I expected this to be easy. However, we arrived at my workplace, and then I got hit with a strange curveball.

" The rules had been emailed to you have you taken time to read them, Miss Evans.?"

I had no idea they would have specific rules here but perhaps they are just normal common knowledge rules.

" Not yet but I will go through them soon."

" Perhaps I should quickly tell you the rules to be safe Miss Evans-"

" You are busy enough I won't let you down sir, just tell me I have the job and ill get started."

" Hm... Alright Miss Evans I shall leave you to it then, the job is yours."

"Thank you, Deacon."

Deacon must have a lot of work to do with how quickly he moves around. Thankfully I have the job without any issues but so far nothing seems to be piled up. The computer emails are even empty which is strange leaving me nothing to do in the meantime. Exploring the floor was my only other option for now hoping to introduce myself to the others working this floor, Which surprisingly enough it's mostly empty. Before I could look any further I heard a phone call coming in from my desk so I rushed back to answer it.

"Hello, this is -"

"Hello, I have a devil's card and I am making an appointment for Nathan, I will be arriving in about an hour or so."

"Uh I'm sorry could you-"

"Thank you have a good day."

She didn't even let me speak a word which makes this a blunder I am lost on. I decided to ignore the call for now since I didn't even have a name or reason for her setting an appointment. What could a Devil's card possibly be since this isn't some weird nightclub establishment. As I was lost in thought I didn't hear the person approaching me till she tapped my shoulder.

"Everything okay for your first day?"

"Yeah just some weird call, do they happen often?"

"Weird call?"

" Some woman who wouldn't let me speak told me she was setting an appointment with Nathan. And she had a devils card or something like this is a nightclub"

For some reason, she was laughing at me and I couldn't understand it at first. Then she pulled open the drawer which had a bunch of red and green cards inside. This furthered my confusion which I am sure she could see.

"You write the time on this card and slip it into the little letter slot behind you. Nathan will receive it, have you not read the rules yet?"

I had forgotten I said I would do that and just like that my phone was dead so my luck is just crashing. She headed back to her workspace as I thanked her so many times while searching for my charger. The rest of the day was pretty simple after that luckily and the woman did show up for her appointment. That was still something I didn't understand at all but it wasn't my business to ask.

I was still going through the rules before me when a woman came by to drop some files on my desk. The sticky note on top was marked urgent but it was almost time for me to head home. I also haven't gotten the rules read yet either which I didn't expect so many of them that's for sure. According to the rules, I was supposed to put all urgent files in the cabinet's top drawer near his door.

With everything organized and done for the day I decided to peak in his office to let him know I was heading home. The moment I opened the door I was greeted by an intense darkness blinding me from seeing anything.

" Rules are meant to be followed, perhaps you haven't had the proper training to know that."

The voice came out so suddenly I felt my voice fleeing me before I could apologize. I tried to locate the voice in the dark which became futile and Just as I tried to move to leave the door had already closed.

" You need to learn the rules."

My body was soon betraying me to a stranger in the darkness as his hands commanded me fully. He directed me and I obeyed unable to resist him but something familiar was in the air between us.

" Freedom is one word."

" Sir... Please I-"

I couldn't pretend I didn't enjoy this since it was a fantasy of mine but I couldn't help battling two sides of a single emotion. This situation was making things difficult to think clearly almost like I'm being devoured by this man. Will I make it out of here alive.
