12. The Devil was Tempting
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56That night I went to my bed at half-past eleven, feeling extremely exhausted. Thankfully no one discovered my gender yet, with that thought in mind, I settled on my bed and closed my eyes.
My phone pinged with notification. I ignored it and raised my comforter to my nose. I felt like I was floating on clouds.
My phone pinged with another notification, making me groan. Come on, give me a break, I was exhausted to my bones. I rolled on my stomach and reached for my phone. My eyes were drooped due to sleepiness.
I opened my phone and my eyes stung with the little light that emitted from its screen. I usually put my phone in a dark mood and today was no exception but still, it affected my eyes. After my eyes got adjusted to the light, I opened the message clumsily. It was from my dear boss, it read,
*Mr. Sandros,
As my personal secretary, I expect you to be at my home, sharp at six O'clock every morning, to organize my morning rou

I could see his defined muscles underneath his see-through shirt. It looked like it was carved out of white marble. I took the tie and stood on my toes to tie it around his neck. I could feel his hot breath fanning my cheeks. I was breathing through my mouth to calm down my racing heart. I looked up and his eyes were solely focused on my face. I had a feeling that he was trying to study my reaction and trying to observe my face. I diverted my eyes to his neck instantly and tied it around it with perfection. I was a sucker for a guy's neck. I knew it sounds weird but I'm telling you this, he had the most beautiful neck. His neck was naturally protruding with veins, not too much, just the right amount to make it look gorgeous. It looked so strong and masculine. I could see three beauty spots on his neck, and his, Adam's apple was well defined. God! I sounded like a pervert. Adeline, focus on what you were here for, he was your enemy. He was in the mafia
The Girl We Desire 14. A Storm was Rising
I was printing some copies for the meeting that would be held this evening, the soft sound of the printer working, filled the room. Suddenly, someone entered the room with the door screeching. I turned around and it was the brunette from the reception. Her face lit up seeing me; she gave me a polite smile and entered the room with a stack of papers in her hand. "Mr. Sandros, right?" she queried me and went near an unoccupied printer. "Yes," I nodded my head in confirmation. She seemed like a good person maybe we could be friends. "What is your first name again?" she asked me all of a sudden and started to make copies of her papers. "Reynold, Miss…" I trailed and I realized she hadn't given me her name. Her eyes widened as if, she had forgotten something. "Oh! My goodness, I haven't introduced myself. I am Betty Fernandez." She rushed out and I could see her cheeks flushed with embarrassment. I laughed at her cuteness and waved her off,

"Rehor! Happy seeing you, it has been a long time since I met you." The redhead chirped, there was a taunting smile on her face. She must be Ms. Knight, I thought to myself. I scanned the room for Arsenio and he was standing at the far corner to my right. There were also two other bodyguards in the room. They all were standing so close to the wall as if, they were the shadows. Arsenio's gaze shifted to me and he looked taken aback by my presence. Well, that was expected, I never told him about my job or anything about me, for a matter of fact. He scanned my entire body up and down which made my body, left tingling. He raised his eyebrows at me as if, he was questioning 'So this was why you were purchasing men's clothes ' I shrugged my shoulders at him and concentrated on my boss who was busy grinding his teeth. I was grateful that Arsenio didn't approach me. There were only seven people in this room. My boss and I on one hand, on the other hand, stood, Ms. Kn

I literally dragged myself to his room and yawned. My eyes felt so droopy and all I wanted to do was to lay on my fluffy bed and sleep. I entered his room with the sound of his door creaking open. He looked up at me and motioned me to come near his desk. He observed me for a while without saying a word. I probably looked like shit, and the suit I was wearing was suffocating me. And on top of that, I had to wear this bloody tie around my neck! I couldn't understand how these men were wearing these kinds of suits all day without breaking a sweat. But I had to admit that guys look much better in suits than in any clothes. The price you pay to look good! If I hadn't needed to pretend like a man, then, I would be wearing a shirt and a skirt which was so comfortable and airy. I don't even wear a camisole, just my bra, and panties, underneath my clothes. "Let's go home, Mr. Sandros." He stated out of the blue after analyzing me from top to bottom.
The Girl We Desire 17. Me? A Fat Chipmunk?
We both were swallowed by the dark greenery of whispering trees and unknown beasts that were lurking in the shadows. I could hear the crunching sound of crusted leaves beneath our feet as we ran on them. My heart was pounding hard against my ribcage. I could feel the thugs trailing behind us. The cold night wind nipped my exposed skin as we both ran. There were numerous trees and we had to run in zigzag to avoid bumping into one. It was so dark and the light from the moon and stars were dappled by the trees. The bullets were rained upon us, my feet protest against me but my grip on the devil's hand was firm as if, he would protect me from these thugs. I was breathing hard and my lungs squeezed painfully. My throat felt dry and painful as if, I ate sand. I felt thirst and in desperate need of water. My eyes stung from exhaustion and pain. I stopped running, pulling my hands away from my boss, and rested them on my knees panting heavily. "Mr. Sandros, c

"I know." "You are staying in my mansion today." He replied coolly without looking at me. My eyes widened at his response. "But, si…" I tried to protest. "No more buts, Mr. Sandros." He shut me with his raised palm. What the fuck was going on here? I was in deep shit. Could this day get any worse? He looked so relaxed and lay back on his seat while I was full on panicking with this new situation. Why was my life like this? We reached his mansion in a flash and before I knew it, I was standing in my allotted room which was next to his bedroom. What was I supposed to do now? The chance of getting exposed was so high when I stay the night here. I could not sleep here. What about my wig? I didn't even have the glue to stick my wig if it comes undone. Not to mention that I was a messy sleeper. I was doomed and I was exhausted to my bones. The bed looked so soft and inviting, all I wanted to do was get off my clothes and jump
The Girl We Desire 19. Trouble in Paradise
Rehor Jedrick~ I couldn't believe what happened now. I was frozen to my spot to process what was going on. I could see, Mr. Sandros' figure rushing to his bedroom as if, his ass caught on fire. He was a peculiar man who keeps on tripping on me and keeps on invading my personal space and that too a very personal space of mine with his palm. The first time when he landed on my lap and touched my length, I was very shocked that my body reacted to his touch instantly. His hands were so soft and fluffy like a baby's hand. I knew it was an accident but the way my body kept on reacting whenever his palm touches my manhood was so unusual. I am Hades, the God of the underworld, I am the devil himself. I disguised myself as Rehor Jedrick to assess the life of humans. Many females tried to catch my attention by flaunting their assets to me but they failed to do so. I couldn't be attracted to the flesh, because the lust of the flesh, and the lust

"We have places to go," he informed me and resumed his eating. I stopped chewing at the new information. I thought I was going home after breakfast, not to mention. I need my fucking wig to be fixed. It was not glued. It would have fallen off if I move my head too much. "Can we stop by my apartment on our way?" I asked him hopefully. "No," the reply came instantly without any hesitation. That bastard! I thought everything was going great so far, but I judged too quickly. I was doomed. "At least, can you tell me where we are going?" I tried to get something out of him. "No," his answer was curt. He didn't even spare me a single glance. My attempt ended in vain. After our breakfast, I was apprehensive about the upcoming disaster. I hope we were not chased by some goons, this time. My wig would have probably flown away for sure if I attempt to run. "Have you seen my bag, sir?" I asked him suddenly remembering about

The door closed behind him on its own as soon as he entered the bedroom. He placed me gently on the bed and gave me a heated look, which made me shiver with anticipation. He started to undo his dress shirt while maintaining eye contact with me. I gulped at the sinful sight in front of me, slowly his marble-like skin started to peek out of the undone buttons."H-Hades…" I whispered his name with a stutter. I had no idea whether I was protesting against his actions or calling him to devour me. I tried to sit straighter from my lying position but he discarded his shirt as swift as the wind and in a blink of an eye he was hovering above me.His hard chest was pressed against my soft feminine one. He intertwined his hands with mine and forced them flat against the bed. I was caged under him and he was burning hot as if he had a fever.All of a sudden, my mouth felt dry as a Sahara, so I licked my lips to moisturize them. The action drew his attention from my e

"Then, do you love me?" he asked me without batting an eyelash. My heart skipped a beat at his question. I liked him as a person but deep down I knew that I don't love him. I didn't say anything for a while, I just looked down at my feet with my slumped shoulders. I heard him heave a sigh, "It is okay Adeline, I can understand. You don't have to reciprocate my feelings." His voice sounded poignant. I lifted my head and took a glimpse at his face with a culpable expression. "Hey! Don't look so down, Now, I can date other girls of this realm. That red one looks hot, don't you think?" He cheered me up and winked at a tall blonde with a figure-hugging red dress who walked by us. She gave him a lingering look as she passed by us. I hit his arm playfully which made him chuckle at my red face. "Come on, let's get going. We don't want to anger your man, now, do we?" he teased me. I blushed at his words as he wrapped his arm around my shoulders and we

The chair screeched as Jedrick stood up to his feet with a feral look on his face."Boyfriend?" he clenched out the word with malice. Arsenio remained unaffected by his outrage; instead, he just smirked in his direction and tucked his hands into his pockets."Yup but we both haven't discussed it yet after our first kis…oomph! Hey!" I stomped on his feet and shut his mouth by interrupting his sentence with a death glare."Ahaha…he is just bluffing, just don't mind him, Jedrick," I told him as I laughed it off awkwardly. Before Jedrick could lash out at us, the waitress arrived with our meal. Jedrick composed himself with an intake of a deep breath. As I was about to sit beside Arsenio, Jedrick grabbed my arm and pulled the chair beside his for me to sit.I gave him a baffled look but he only glared at me as if I was a brat. I instantly looked away from his intimidating eyes and took a seat near the window sill and Jedrick placed himself besid

After our little chat, Cerberus transformed into his real form. Oh boy! I thought that he was so big and intimidating when I first met him, but he was thousand times much bigger and scarier now. He had the body of a single dog but he had three heads. He looked exactly the same way how he was described in mythologies. His eyes were yellow and snake-like. His fur was dark as the midnight sky; it was such a contrast to his eyes. His teeth were literally the size of me, it was sharp and dripping with saliva. He gave me an adorable frown as if he didn't want to part away from me. I smiled at this big baby, and he bent his head to my height. I petted his snout. "Let's go, Adeline," Jedrick told me from my behind. I could feel his heat radiates off him. he was always very warm. I could feel him even without touching or seeing him. I always had this feeling of being protected whenever I was with Jedrick even when I thought he was a mafia boss. Cerberus whined

“Jedrick?” I called him softly. His face was only a few inches away from mine and my arms were wrapped around his neck. I could hear the crunching of leaves beneath his boots as he walked with me in his arms. He raised his eyebrows at me. “What? You are not my boss anymore,” I shrugged with an innocent look. I could see his lips slightly twitch at the corners, and he shook his head at me with a serene look. “Can I ask you a question?” I asked him. “Do I even have a choice?” I thought about his question for a second and grinned at him toothily. “Definitely not,” I replied him enthusiastically. His eyes were shining with laughter. “What is your age?” My question made him pause in his tracks. He looked down at me with an unreadable expression. I looked up at him with my big gooey eyes.

He looked at me with a funny look as if he was laughing internally at my horrifying expression. Wait a minute? Was he lying to me? His face didn’t give away anything but there was a possibility of that. I scrutinized my eyes on his face and saw him biting his lip. “You are lying, aren’t you?” I asked him with my evil eyes. As soon as I asked this, he burst out laughing, and it was the most beautiful sound that I had ever heard. “Nope, I am telling you the truth. You should have heard of what you were saying last night. You were moaning my name, and you completely took advantage of this poor soul.” He told me with an innocent look. I could say that he was lying from the way he was looking at me. I frowned at him and smacked his head with a pillow. “You are lying!” I yelled at him and kept on smacking him. He burst out laughing and he didn’t look like he was bothered by my pillow fight. “You should have seen your face. You looked mortified as if

His eyes looked unyielding. It took me a second to process what he was saying. When I realized what he was implying, my eyes widened like a saucer. I shook my head at him in disbelieve and I was speechless. This was absurd. "You are impossible. I am resigning my job and I am leaving this place tomorrow on the first flight to Seattle." I told him angrily. "And you mister! Open this damn door this instant!" I ordered him and gave him the stink eyes. He looked at me with laughter in his eyes which made me to scrutinize my gaze on the twitching of his lips as if he was trying hard to hold in his laughter. He took long strides and stood in front of me. I stood my ground with a firm face. He bent down to my height by placing his palms on his knees. I leaned my head back at his proximity. He observed my face with his dark eyes. There was a lopsided grin on his face which made him look all smug but at the same time, it made him look like a Greek god, oh look
The Girl We Desire 38. Jealous Hades
Adeline’s pov~ I had no idea what was going on in my life anymore. I couldn’t believe that I was standing in front of the Greek god and that too, one of my favorite characters from Greek mythology. The moment I saw Arsenio with his wings was the moment I started to believe in mythology. But even then I didn’t believe in the concept of god. I was not the most spiritual person on this planet. The moment my parents died, I lost my faith in a higher power and that was the moment I turned into an atheist. I became so angry with higher powers when I felt lonely and abandoned and my grandmother’s death was a cherry on the top. Though I understood that she died of old age, I felt like everyone abandoned me. My whole view on spirituality and the concept of god had changed today. I was awe-stricken when he opened the door with the snap of his fingers. All these times I thought that Jedrick was a mafia boss but in reality, he was only punishi

“Hades! Don’t hurt her! Open the door, you have to see this!” Helena’s voice came behind the door. Adeline adjusted her clothes at the sound of Helena. She looked disheveled as if she had rough sex with me and the thought alone made me to swallow. I was having this sinful image of her in my mind and only my father could help me. I focused on Helena’s words and frowned in her direction. I snapped my fingers together. The door opened and there stood my grim reapers aka devils. Helena sauntered inside my room, followed by Grudgecous, Skull, and Victor. Adeline looked startled by their sudden intrusion and by my ability to use magic. Since she knew that I was a god there was nothing to hide from her. She moved a little closer to me, beside my bed, as soon as she saw them approaching us. Helena was holding a document in her hand and she looked tensed and worried, even Victor looked tensed. He was the most playful grim reaper among them but he the most dangerous wh
