I stirred in my sleep and felt something very soft under me. It felt like I am sleeping on clouds, so soft and comfortable. I don't want to wake up. I snuggled more into the clouds to feel heaven.
But then I realized that I am not into heaven but in hell. I opened my eyes to see the devil sitting on the couch with a cigarette in between his fingers. His expressions were neutral and his eyes were unreadable as always. He was looking at nothing in particular. It seems like he is planning the murder of someone.
What a lovely starting... Isn't it?
I tilted my head to see the time and it is 10 past 6 in the evening.
Oh my God! I was sleeping for the past 19 hours. Wasn't that too much?
"Finally! You are awake" the devil spoke grabbing my attention.
He stood up from his place, used a sturdy ashtray to dispose off the cigarette, and walked towards the bed.
He sat on the bed b

Elena's POVIt is still a mystery why and how he got my number. I don't think that any of my friends will share my contact number with him.Nevertheless, I didn't give this issue a lot of attention as it is not a big deal to get someone's phone number.He texted me his address and now I am on my way to his home. I never thought that study will make me go to his home and that too willingly.Only if I was living alone or my roommates are trustable I would have called him over to my place. But currently, I can't do anything about this.After few more minutes of wandering my thoughts here and there and cutting my time by observing people around me, I reached his place.I pressed the doorbell and within a minute he came out. Wow! Wasn't he too fast? He must be waiting for me. Hah!He opened his arms along with the door giving me a perfect view of his perfect muscles that were budding out of t

Elena's POV His lips were getting closer and closer and with every inch, heat rose in my chest as his smell hypnotized me. And before I could react his lips landed on mine and my heart thump in my chest like a frog jump on a muddy bank. The time stopped the moment his lips touched mine, but the thumping of my heart only intensified. I could not feel anything except his soft lips placed over mine. And hey why I am not pushing him away? How could I let him kiss me like this? This is not right. With this thought, I moved my hands up and placed them on his chest to push him but instead of pushing him away, I found my hands pulling him to my side. I know this is wrong then why is it feeling so right? My brain wanted to push him away but deep inside I wanted him to move his lips against mine. Before I could take action and move my lips against his, he pulled back. Why? I stopped

Oh my God! I am so dead.....He moved towards me with predatory steps. I could easily read the greed hidden behind those blue orbs. His gaze halted my movements. I was trying very hard to move or to do something, but I couldn't because of his hypnotizing stares.He stood in between my legs, knees to be exact, and placed his hand over my exposed thigh.

After four years Third Person's POV As the doorbell rang, Elena ran towards the door to welcome her husband and as usual, her husband engulfed her into a bear hug. "What happened? Is everything fine?" Raphael asked when he found his wife low in energy. "I just get tired of running behind the culprit all day long" she answered him. "Culprit?" His eyebrows knitted in confusion "When did you join the police?" He asks still standing on the door. "Your hundred culprits can not complete my one as mine is no less than a terrorist" Raphael was still confused with the words of his wife, this is when she took a step aside to show him the actual culprit. The little terrorist was smiling up at him, showing her tiny and white teeth, while he looked down at her in pure admiration and love. "Ohh!" Raphael now understood why his wife was so irritated. He steps in and closes the door beh

Elena's POV "How long will you take?" My mother asked getting all irritated. "Just five minutes more!" So today is the biggest day of my life as I am going to get married to the man of my dreams! The anxiety and nervousness are at their peak. My palms and feet are numb and my head is so full of thoughts that I can't think anything specific. The only thing that my heart is chanting like a mantra is that every time this day should not turn out to be a dream. I want it to be a reality. Strong emotions have overpowered me, making me feel surreal. We have kept the wedding very simple as our families are small. My family has arrived two days back and Raphael has invited a few of his colleagues to attend the wedding. The decoration is very modest because both of us have decided to spend money on a world tour instead of doing unnecessary expenditure on the wedding. "Bui, daddy is

For the past twenty minutes, we are switching from one dress to another, not able to reach any concrete decision."Yes, I know but I want you to look the best at the party. Please" she made a puppy face "I request"How can I deny her request when she is asking me so lovingly?"Ok""Yay," she squeaked like a kid.This brought a wide smile to my face too."Don't make me wait for long" she made her way out of the room.I for my part started sliding into the red midi to get ready for the party.The day when Raphael took me to the dungeon and I whipped Xaphan, I cried a lot.

Elena's POVIt is been three days since the doctors have discharged Raphael. That day he kept waiting for me but I didn't go to meet him. I am still not able to muster enough courage to face him.In fact from the day he has come to the home, I am just ignoring him, trying to avoid eye contact, refraining myself from indulging in any kind of conversation.Today, at the time of lunch he was sleeping so I and Mimi had lunch together. I woke up from a siesta when I felt thirsty. I checked my bottle just to find it empty. I walked towards the kitchen to refill it.As I was crossing the hall I saw that Raphael's room door was open. I peeped into it slightly and found him having his lunch on the bed. He was struggling with the food because of the bandage on his right shoulder. He was trying to eat with his left hand.After giving it a thought, I decided to go into his room. The ignoring game is not going to work for long.He

Elena's POV Shock is a very small word to express what I am feeling at present after looking at the completely changed demeanor of Raphael. I never thought even in my worst nightmare that he can trade his mother for money and love. This is not the person whom I loved and if this is his real face then I am not going to accept him in any way. I flinched at my place at the gunshot and snapped my head in the direction of the voice and found Xaphan standing there with a gun pointed towards the sky, firing in the air. He was looking drunk as his eyes were bloodshot red and his knees were wobbling. He was not able to stand still on his feet. He yelled like a beast and pointed his gun towards Lucifer. "How dare you?" He roared, clasping the gun with both hands and making the balance. "Put the gun down, Xaphan" Lucifer instructed. But he was too high to give heed to anything. He was looking thirsty fo

Yes, I wanted adventures in my life but not the storms that desolate me completely.I am sitting in this room all alone from the moment Lucifer has locked me here, and no one has come to even see me.As if God heard my voice, someone, someone entered the room.
