All Chapters of In The Devil’s Arms: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

I couldn’t believe it! Here? Now? Of all places and times?My jaw felt like it was cast in iron as I gave that impeccable face of his the once-over. He looked as if he'd struck a deal with Lucifer himself to get a mug like that.His hair, black and short, was always slick as the silk pillow I buried my face in every night. His eyes, dark as an insomniac night, twinkled like stars making light of the moon's absence. And that jawline... oh, that jawline..."Reina?" "Damn!" I cursed, louder than I intended."What?" "Nothing!" A little too quickly, I collected myself. "Are you okay?" Of course I wasn't. The CEO of the company I worked for – the stingy, insufferable, unrecyclable piece of trash – was the VIP guest. How could I be okay?"Absolutely! Why wouldn't I be?" I forced the corners of my mouth to curl up in a smile, while my right eye twitched like it was sending Morse code for 'SOS.' "Good! I need you for your A-game today."Easy for her to say. Her boss wasn't sitting right a

"Seriously, what the hell!” I sputtered, my lips twisted into a frown. The absurdity of his declaration was absolutely baffling."Your slave? Are you joking? First thing in the morning, no less!" I raised my voice, incredulity seeping into my tone. 'What an idiot!'"Reina," he began, his voice held a hint of impatience. "I know it's difficult for you to act with any semblance of normalcy, but I'm not here to engage in some childish game." He lifted his head, his gaze pierced mine with a startling intensity. His eyes, they usually were so calm and unreadable, now seemed to glow, reflecting a brilliant, almost demonic red. "Are you wearing lenses, by any chance?" I attempted to divert the conversation, his intimidating countenance made me feel quite uncomfortable."No. I will explain more when the time is right." he answered casually, adjusting his tie as he did so. I had to admit, the man had a sense of style. His wardrobe was a walking, talking fashion trend. Or maybe it was just his

As Aryan's gaze locked with mine, his strict look softened, and a ghost of a smile danced at the corners of his lips. The oppressive silence that had cloaked the room lifted momentarily as he pondered my question. The air was still thick with the remnants of our earlier confrontation, and curiosity gnawed at my insides. But before I could voice my thoughts, he beat me to it."Reina," his voice was like a soothing balm against the tension, "what you've stumbled upon today is just the tip of an iceberg. The truth is a labyrinth, and I promise to guide you through it. But understand this: I'm not the man you think I am."His words were like a siren's song, luring me into a mystery that begged to be solved. My heart pounded a tribal rhythm in my chest, *thump* *thump* *thump*. Each beat was a battle between the instinct to bolt and the desire to decipher the enigma that was Aryan."As for 'Devil,'" he continued, a wry smile tugged at his lips, "it's a moniker that holds weight in this w

Reina’s POV‘To a meeting filled with devils…’ I mumbled. What on earth was this guy talking about here now? As we walked through the buzzling mall, butterflies kept dancing in my belly. I felt the joy filling it up inside my heart. I was happy to receive this bag, very happy. But seeing how easily I got it, it makes me wanna think if this contract with him was something that I complained about too much. “Here, this way.” He gently placed his right hand near my back to protect me from something, and allowed me to get inside first into the dimly lit room. “Aryan, where are we?” “Sshh. Don’t say anything, just follow me.”Walking through the door, I had no idea what awaited me in that meeting. But the sight that greeted me was anything but expected – a sex shop filled with an assortment of toys and bondage items. “What is this…?” I mumbled, and glanced at Aryan. ‘Why did this weirdo bring me here?’My discomfort was obvious, and now I couldn't help but label Aryan as a pervert in

Aryan picked up Reina in his arms and carried her into the hotel. He walked up to the reception and looked at the woman. "Give me the keys to an empty room," he whispered.The woman looked like she was hypnotized. She handed the room key to Aryan like a zombie, without talking back.Aryan walked inside with Reina in his arms. He looked around and dropped her on the bed, gently. Then she brushed her shoulders off and woke up, looking at Aryan standing in front of her.“Do you still want to be pleased?”Her face boiled in heat, but she answered, “yes…”He then got closer and started to unbutton her blouse again, saying, "Will you let the devil take you tonight?"Reina nodded and lay on the bed, with only her bra saving her chest from exposure. Aryan smirked and leaned forward. The muscles of his arms tightened when he looked at her eyes.Aryan's lips brushed against Reina's neck. He kissed her gently, then passionately. “Aah…” Reina moaned softly and wrapped her arms around his neck.
