Caiden’s smile was one of understanding and Clara smiled back. They were close enough to be able to tell how the other person was feeling.

“You know, you can use him instead,” Caiden said. “Just because you’re not getting revenge against him doesn’t mean he can’t be part of a future revenge plan.”

“Is that a hint?” Clara asked. “If you think I’ll need him because he’s an investigative reporter, you’re wrong. I have Arthur for things like that.”

“It’s not quite because of that. Xavier has a vendetta against the same people as you. It will help to have some way to contact him when you meet your targets later on.”

Clara nodded and lurched into action. The demon was trying to subtly tell her that she would need Xavier in the future. She ran up the beach and caught up with Xavier.

“Xavier!” she called out. “Can we exchange contact information?”

Xavier looked delighted to be asked that question.

    Clara took a moment to process Caiden’s words. He was in love with her?She had never expected a love confession from the demon she was contracted to. Clara stared at him with wide eyes. She had never ever felt so lost for words. Some part of her brain registered that she had technically received two love confessions in the past week. Clara had never ever considered Caiden as someone she would be romantically attracted to. He was very kind and she enjoyed spending time with him, but she had never thought of romantic love in relation to him. “I can see you are too shocked to speak,” Caiden said softly. “I thought this would happen. I am aware that you probably don’t return my feelings. I just couldn’t stay silent on the matter for any longer.” Clara opened her mouth and closed it again. She didn’t know how to reply. She couldn’t reject him right after he confessed and she couldn’t return his confession either. She had been put on the spot. She could feel her cheeks heating up. She

    “Who am I going to encounter by working at St. Clair?” Clara asked excitedly. “When do I ever tell you that much information?” Caiden retorted and poked her cheek. “Have some patience.” Clara pouted and blinked her eyes. Caiden simply ignored her. Despite being in love with her, he was immune to her pouty face. “Is it one of the four bitches?” she questioned. “You can tell me that much.” “It is,” the demon confirmed. “I didn’t know you had any other targets in mind.” Clara resumed picking out clothes that were suitable for working in an office. Due to the fact that she would be working at a fashion company as the granddaughter of the CEO, she had to think about her outfits carefully. “We’ve never actually fully discussed who we consider revenge targets. At one point I considered my youngest step brother as a target.” When she had drawn up a list of people to get revenge on early on, she had written Ryan’s name down. He had destroyed all her possessions on that day and in

    Clara smiled in satisfaction. She had only been at the company for two hours and she had found a way to get to her latest revenge target. Caiden appeared next to her. Clara did her best not to react to the sudden appearance of the person she wanted to see the most. “I see you’ve found why I directed you here,” he said. “Are you excited?” Clara did her best discreet nod and risked a smile in his direction. “Excellent. I think you will enjoy this one,” Caiden said. “I’ll leave you in peace now. You’ve got some actual work to do.” Clara knew he was very right. She had picked out Victoria immediately for revenge, now she had to pick four other influencers that would actually be a good fit for the company and could contribute well to an advertising campaign. She also needed to prove why Victoria would be a good choice for the experiment. Clara opened up an internet browser on her computer and began to search up the names on the list. She needed to pick people were interested in f

    “She took the bait,” Clara said happily to Caiden when she got home. “She is coming to London next week for the fitting.” Clara was over the moon at her successful plan to entrap Victoria. The bully would be completely unsuspicious when they met and Clara could proceed with her plan to attack her image. “You work fast,” Caiden said in bemusement. “Did you put this amount of effort into contacting the other influencers?” Clara pouted at him. “Well, I sent the same email to the other four influencers and communicated with them. They sound very nice in their emails and are all excited about the opportunity to work with St. Clair. I wouldn’t neglect the job I agreed to do just for revenge.” “I know you do everything to the best of your abilities,” Caiden said quickly. “It was a joke. Have you planned your outfit yet? I think you’ll want a power outfit for when you meet with her to show your superiority.” Clara grinned. Victoria had always had fashionable accessories and hair at

    Clara stepped into the hotel lobby and took out her phone to call Victoria. “Hello, who is it?” Victoria drawled when she picked up the call. “I’m a busy person so make it quick.” Victoria’s voice was gratingly familiar. Clara proceeded calmly with the conversation. She wasn’t going to let her past bad memories involving Victoria bother her. “I’m Clarissa from St. Clair. I’ve arrived downstairs for our meeting,” she replied. “Have I come at a bad time? We arranged to meet at this time yesterday.” “No, it’s fine. I just get a lot of nuisance calls,” Victoria said quickly. “I will come downstairs now.” “I will be in the restaurant,” Clara said and ended the call. She walked into the hotel restaurant. This hotel was not quite the Savoy, but it was still very expensive to stay at and had been Victoria's choice. St. Clair was footing the bill for the hotel stay to compensate Victoria for her travel expenses. The other influencers had selected considerably less expensive hotels. Clara

    Victoria’s face flushed red with anger. “I thought you would understand me because you grew up rich and influential,” she pouted. Clara resisted the urge to say something very rude to Victoria. She needed to come out of this conversation as the sophisticated winner. “I never did anything like that during my time in school,” Clara said calmly. “Not all rich people think they are above people who are not as fortunate as them. You could have not bullied that girl to the point of suicide and you would be a better person for it. There’s blood on your hands.” Victoria slammed her coffee cup onto the table and Clara knew she had successfully put pressure on her. “You’re such a goody two shoes,” Victoria said. “I was a bully in high school and I’m not happy that Clara killed herself because of anything that I did. I just don’t see why it should haunt me.” That was the closest thing to remorse Clara had seen from Victoria so far. The difference between talking to Xavier and Victoria abou

    Clara woke up to the sound of her alarm clock. She groaned after seeing the early time and then she remembered that she had something to look forward to. She silenced her alarm and reached for her phone. The email account that was connected to all her fake social media accounts was jammed with notifications for new comments on her posts. Clara flicked through the comments to see that people were angry with Victoria and wanted her cancelled. Clara was pleased with that and checked the news sites to see if her posts had received sufficient traction to warrant new articles. The top post on the first news site was about the downfall of Victoria Hayes courtesy of a leaked video. Clara nodded in satisfaction and moved onto another new website. She found the same results there. She had been asleep for seven hours and this much had already happened. She was expecting other things to occur over the course of the day as more people became aware of the scandal.Clara took note of the time. S

    Clara waited for Victoria’s reply. There was no way that Victoria would turn down an opportunity to revitalise her career. “I’ll meet with you,” was the eventual reply. “It would have to be somewhere private. Our last meeting was a disaster.” Victoria’s normally confident tone was gone and she sounded considerably more subdued and miserable. “What’s your room number?” Clara asked. Victoria willingly gave out her room number and Clara entered the hotel. Caiden appeared at her side when she walked through the hotel lobby. “Don’t worry about her getting violent, that won’t happen. You are in the superior position,” Caiden reassured her. Clara hadn’t been too concerned about Victoria trying to attack her, but she appreciated that Caiden had thought she might be worried about it.“Thank you,” she said. “Are you staying to watch?” “I think I will,” Caiden said. “You can ask me to leave if it gets too personal.” Clara smiled at him. “I will do that.” She had preferred to speak to X

    “I’m getting married!” Clara announced happily. She smiled over her coffee and Arthur watched her with a bemused look on his face. "When is the wedding?" he asked. “Next month,” Clara told him. “I was planning to invite you. We’ve only just decided on the date so there’s no invitations to give out yet.” “Do you not have wedding planner then?” the hacker questioned. “Invitations are normally sent out much sooner.” “I don’t want a big wedding,” Clara replied. “James was fine with it and just asked that I invite him.” She was a little surprised that her grandfather had agreed with her desire to have a very small wedding. They both enjoyed high positions in society and people like them normally had grand weddings with a long guest list and a high budget. “I shall consider an invite as a great honour then,” Arthur quipped. “How many guests are invited?” “I’m inviting 12 people,” Clara said. “Caiden has invited a couple of friends. He doesn’t have any relations to invite.” “Of cour

    Their first month of dating passed by quickly. They soon fell into a routine of meeting after work and going on dates. Clara was blissfully happy, but she knew they needed to discuss their future together. Caiden was only living temporarily in the UK after all. She chose to ask after they had finished eating Caiden’s latest attempt at a home cooked romantic meal. His cooking skills were unique to say the least. “Are you going to stay here in London when your job here is finished?” she asked. “Where would you like to live?” he questioned. “Here or in a different country? We have lots of options.” Clara thought about the matter seriously. She had grown up in the US and had been unexpectedly pulled into a different country. She did prefer living in the UK, but there were other countries to try as well. “We can move around,” Clara said. “I think we should make this our main country and travel to other places. That is if you want to. This is a decision we should make as a couple.” Ca

    Clara kept a careful watch on the office building opposite so she wouldn’t miss seeing Caiden leave when his work day had finished. She had already missed seeing him before, she wasn’t going to do it again. Fortunately, he was one of the first people out of the building and Clara immediately began to pack up everything she had brought with her. Caiden entered the coffeeshop and beamed when he saw her waiting by the door. “Excellent. You’re ready to leave on our date,” he said and held his hand out to her. “Can we take a diversion first?” she requested. It was only fair to let Arthur know that she had found Caiden, but she had decided a text wouldn’t suffice and it was better to let them meet in person. “Will it take long?” “I want to introduce you to someone,” she explained. “Arthur has been helping me look for you and I think he would like to see the success of our search.” Caiden looked thoughtful and then he nodded. “I would like to meet him. He has provided assista

    When Clara finally looked up from her phone and glanced back at the door, the person she had been waiting for had already left. She had missed a lot in the two minutes her attention had been diverted.A member of staff approached her table with a cup of coffee in her hand. Clara looked around in confusion. “I didn’t order anything,” she said. Clara was aware that she was the strangest customer in the coffeeshop and the staff were probably wondering when she was going to leave. She had been the first customer of the day and had only ordered two drinks in the past three hours. “One of our regulars came in a couple of minutes ago to pick up his online order. He saw you looking tired and bought an expresso for you,” the staff member explained with a smile. “He’s a nice person.” Clara blinked in surprise. She had never noticed any of the customers paying attention to her. The incident must have occurred when she had been occupied with her phone. She checked the name tag on the girl’s

    The weeks quickly turned into months and soon an entire year had passed. Clara had taken a position at St. Clair that had enabled her to travel around the world just so she would have better chance of finding Caiden. She returned to the family mansion on the anniversary of her return from the demon realm after an unsuccessful trip to New York. Her actual work had gone well, she just hadn’t found any signs of Caiden in the city. There hadn’t been any traces of Caiden in any of the 10 countries she had travelled to over the past year. He didn’t have any presence on the internet either and Clara didn’t have any idea of how she could improve her search methods. Clara collapsed onto her bed and closed her eyes. She was physically and emotionally exhausted from her search. Despite everything, she wasn’t going to give up. She would sleep for a while and then she would look at other highly populated places to visit. “Clara Kennedy.” Clara’s eyes opened immediately at the sound of

    Clara landed on the floor of her bedroom alone and fully aware of the gravity of the situation. She didn’t have Caiden at her side anymore. She needed to find him for that to happen. Clara stood up and realised that her legs were shaking. She had been feeling intimidated by the demon king and had refused to let him know. Now her nerves and lack of sleep had got to her. She took a deep breath to calm down. She had vowed that she would be able to find Caiden and she needed to start working on that.One person came to mind immediately. Arthur would be able to help her. She took her phone out of her pocket and called him. “...Hello?” Arthur asked cautiously when he picked up the call. Clara realised he had assumed that the phone call was someone else using her phone to inform him of her death. “It’s me, Clara,” she told him immediately. “Things have changed. Can we meet up? I have a lot to tell you.” “Of course,” he said. “I think we'll need to go somewhere that allows for private c

    Caiden was lost for words as he watched the events that he had foreseen so many times play out in front of him. It was no longer a vision of the future; it was happening in reality. It was finally the end of Clara’s life. Her soul floated in front of him as her eyes slowly closed. Caiden made his decision in that moment. He grabbed hold of Clara’s soul with his hands and pushed it back into her. Despite being very light, her soul wouldn’t move until he exerted all of his power. Clara’s eyes snapped open when her soul returned to her. “...What’s going on?” she asked breathlessly. “I can’t take your soul,” Caiden admitted. “I want you to keep it.” He had no real idea what was going to happen now. The contract had not been fulfilled properly. He had completed his part of the contract and he had stopped Clara from fulfilling her part. There was no precedent to follow here. He was the first demon to refuse a soul. “What’s going to happen to both of us?” Clara questioned weakl

    Clara knew that her grandfather was confused to hear her sentimental words. They rarely talked about their personal feelings. “I haven’t been the best grandfather,” James replied with a deep frown. “I brought Beryl here to be your mother figure as I had felt that it would prevent you from becoming like my daughter. It turned out to be the worst decision I have ever made.” Clara could not deny that James’ decision to date Beryl and bring her into the family had been lethal for Clarissa. She decided to focus on something else. “Thank you for rescuing me when I was a baby,” she said. “I’m sure Clara would also thank you for looking for her.” “You don’t need to thank me for that,” James replied. “I would also like to thank you for taking me in instead of leaving me to the care system,” Clara continued. She didn’t know much about the British care system, but it was likely similar to the American one she had lived through. She had been lucky to be adopted by a decent set of foster pa

    “It was a good ride,” Arthur said with a wink. “You kept me guessing for so many years. I’m so pleased to finally know what was going on the entire time.” Clara relaxed. The hardest part was over now. “Is everything over now?” he asked a moment later. “You’ve brought all of your targets down apart from Xavier King.” “It is,” she confirmed. Arthur nodded and then he looked deep in thought. He coughed awkwardly before speaking again. “Where did Clarissa go if you are in her body?” he questioned. Clara had been expecting this question. Arthur was the only person who had a connection to Clarissa and knew that she was using her body. It would have been odd if he didn’t ask where Clarissa had gone. “...She died when she committed suicide four years ago,” she explained. “Her body was alive for a short time and I was put into it. I’m sorry to tell that she died all that time ago.” Arthur frowned and looked away. “I see... That’s sad,” he said. “It’s odd to hear that Clariss
