Devil POV. Elle been living with me for two weeks now, she’s trusting me more these days, I’m trusting her back too. Maybe that’s my biggest mistake, trusting someone, having someone new in my life, I don’t trust, there’s a story behind my trust issues, Elle been asking questions. Questions about my past, about why I’m what I am, she’s not letting it go, although I loved hearing her stories about me, the ones she made up about me being a lost soul, me being hurt, me being the victim. But that’s where she’s wrong, she only thinks I’m the one who’s hurt, she wants me to be a victim who needs to be saved, but the thing is little Elle doesn’t get, is I’m not the victim, I’m a full-on psycho. But Elle doesn’t know that, Elle doesn’t get it, Elle wants to believe I’m a good person, and I want her to believe that, I never want her to know what it’s all about.

Devil POV. “Devil…Satan…King of hell…” I heard a voice calling me with a giggle, I love her, I love the way she wakes me up, I had a late night last night. My last assignment isn’t an easy one, it takes most of the day and night, I’m keeping an eye on my target, but it’s not easy, my target loves late night, and loves staying up. I didn’t have any real goal, not to get dirty or to find something, just watch, I lost interest in that job fairly quickly. But now I had Elle who was awake early, and ready to get up, she acted like a lost puppy sometimes refusing to get out of the bed without me, waiting for me to wake up, waiting for me to take care of her, I loved taking care of her. My pain made me into who I am, a psycho, but her pain, it made her even more innocent than she ever was, she transferred her pain into art, she made it into stories, and she lived through her characters until she became one with them. She’s into something called age regression, my therapist tried to talk m

Devil POV. “I’m driving you Elle” I decided later that day, Elle had work, I knew the owner, I had done a job for the owner before it was a protection job, but the owner loved me, he trusted me and I trusted him. That’s why I decided to allow Elle to work there, last time I was over they were short on waitress, I might have had a talk with the owner, including a raise, it wasn’t the café paying, it was me, but that is our small secret. “No need, I can walk” she replies, it wasn’t an option, it was more of an order, she need to get used to obeying me, I can’t keep her safe unless she does as I say. “I said I’m driving Elle, let’s go” I ordered her walking her outside of the bedroom, she’s still wearing her old clothes, I wanted to buy her a new wardrobe, but that would be hard, she doesn’t agree on it yet. I didn’t want to force her, it would happen, but I had to get her to agree to it, it just took some time. “You are meanie, you know that?” she says pouting walking with me towar

Devil POV. Elle, ohh little Elle what did you do to me? I sat in my car calming myself down, that guy who works with her is with the Irish, he doesn’t look like them there were no clear tattoos, so maybe that means he’s still a newbie. Still, it all made my blood boil, he knew what I was, he knew I was the Devil, better not touch what’s mine. But at the same time, I just gave up my weakness, I announced to one of the many mafias around here in London that I have a weakness, that’s not good for the job, having a weakness and no other loyalties, no ties or protection, I just screwed myself for Elle, but I knew she’s worth it. “Elle, I’m home baby” I call to her, she’s my baby even when she’s not in her little headspace, she’s my baby. “Devillllll” she yells running toward me, she lift both hands up giving me a hug, I pull her closer to me, smelling her, she smells like honey. Her favourite shampoo is honey-scented, she smells just like sugar, how appropriate. “Hi sweetie,” I say, I

Devil POV. “Don’t you want some more little items?” I ask her, it’s been a few days, how days pass without me feeling, I always thought days take forever to pass, a year feels like a century to me, I never felt the days pass as quickly as they do right now. “Little items?” Elle asks, she’s been going on her laptop for the last hour or so, she doesn’t even look up while working. I’ve been reading more of her stories, it’s a way to get to know what she wants, I want her to be happy. I plan on buying her a laptop too, but after she got back to her big self, she tried to fight me off, saying I shouldn’t have bought her all of those clothes. “Yes sweetie, like the one you type about. Don’t you want Mommy to get you new things?” I ask playing on her little side, little Elle doesn’t mind me buying things for her. “You’re not my mommy Devil,” she says with a sigh, that’s what she thinks. “Oh no sweetheart, I believe you called me mommy before, I’m the one who takes care of you, I feed yo

Devil POV. “Mommy, how about I cut my hair?” Elle asks messing with her wet hair over the mirror, I looked at her brown locks, she hardly does anything with them, she could use a hair cut, maybe add some layers. “I can cut it for you” I say, I knew how to cut hair, I learned how back in my family house, mom used to cut my hair all the time. “You know how?” she asks looking at me with confusion, I know how to do lots of things. “Of course, I do” I say pulling her back into the bathroom, I closed the toilet seat and made her sit there, I got my scissors and started to cut a bit from the length. Elle sat quietly watching me work through her locks, I added some layers, something I learned from Brad Mondo on youtube, a girl gets bored sometimes. “Done,” I say messing with her hair, she looks at herself in the mirror before turning back to me with pleading eyes. “Can I have bangs?” she asks, I didn’t mind adding bangs to her haircut, I thought they’d go well with her face. “Sit” I or

Devil, we never sleep by ten” she replies while whining behind her laptop, she had her day off today, and although I’d love to stay in and baby her all she wants, I have a job to do, I can’t have her staying awake the whole night typing at her laptop while watching animal planet. She have a history of crying when the baby lion died, being killed by another predator, she’s so pure and light-hearted, crying over mother nature, she’s my opposite but I have no plans on letting her go. “Yes I said ten, and I expect you to obey even if I’m not here” I warn her, I expect obedience from my subs, even if they are a little like her. “You are evil Devil, just wait I’m

Devil POV. I thanked Nikolai and left, he smiled again, he’s been smiling too often during our lunch, and although we haven’t said much, the eyes talk enough. We have plans for later after we end up our work, a very important work as it seems. Find the mole, find who he sells his information to, great fun for me, interrogation, it’s always fun to interrogate someone, especially when they play hard to get, hard to break, not wanting to tell me things. I left him and went toward a bar to meet my people for the mission, I was only introduced as someone who was here to help, no one called me Devil, I went with an alias name, not my favourite thing to do in the world, I love my name, I loved being the Devil, but for today call me Maria.
