Isabelle's POV
"They're by the corner wall. I'm sure they're waiting for you," Maggie said pointing in the direction to my hind left."They?" I questioned."Yeah. I'm pretty sure they were looking for you earlier. Right, Tina?"Tina replied, "Well.. yeah.""Now run along," Maggie said, "I'd hate to ruin your night by bickering with you.""Thanks. That's so nice of you," I mocked.I didn't care about anything that she wanted to say afterwards. I was determined to have fun with my friend tonight.. and whomever she was with, since they couldn't have been apart of the cheer squad.Walking in the direction Maggie point me toward, I bumped into the usual couples who were swapping saliva like there was no tomorrow & the other usual people who were grinding upon each other like it was the only thing keeping them from ripping each other's clothes off. It was disgusting."Get a room, people," I said."Get some cRelated chapters
The Devil’s Kryptonite 32. E/B
"If you're the devil, then what the hell is going on? You have hell hounds running around. Oh my god, I just kissed the devil! My life is ruined.. You're going to make my life a living hell, aren't you? Not that you haven't been doing that already," Isabelle rambled.Lucian only laughed at her. She shot him daggers and he toned it down a tad; he bent down and the hound wagged its tail before stopping in front of Lucian. Isabelle could feel the heat emanating from the hound; it felt like she was the one on fire. She rubbed her leg and retreated by a few steps away from the creatures of hell."Probably should have told you to stand back; the heat from them would usually kill your kind, but you're different," he said to her."I knew you were the devil all this time. You and that psychopath with the scythe talking about me dying all the time. It's insane and unbelievable, but I know I'm different," Isabelle said."Good. Then I won't have to
The Devil’s Kryptonite 33. Part2
Isabelle's POV "You want to what?" I asked."Are you deaf? Or did you actually not hear me?""I think I heard you, but I want you to repeat it just in case I didn't hear you correctly," I said in shock.He seemed fed up with me already. "You heard me correctly. Now let's go.""You asshole! Do you expect for me to just up and leave with you?""I do actually. If you don't come now, you'll come later. Guaranteed," he stated cockily."Go to hell," I spat."Oh, we're going."I wasn't gonna go. I'd never go with him. That's what I said. I wasn't going to go back on my word. That was five months ago. FIVE MONTHS!! I had my mind set that I'd never go anywhere with that egotistical asshole, but I did. And everyday, I saw the reason why I should've never changed my mind. I actually don't know what changed my mind, and even if I did know, I just couldn't see myself coming to terms with it.Hell
The Devil’s Kryptonite 34. Hot
•Part Two•Isabelle's POV Right now, beyond the balcony of Lucian's castle, I am gazing at hot, red roses as they sway gently in the breeze. I was allowed to visit only certain parts, and as such, this became one of my favorite places to visit. I come here to think; sometimes, to escape and other times, because I'm angry. Just seeing the fiery roses calmed my nerves. My nerves wouldn't need to be calmed if it weren't for a certain someone. Five months here off and on, and I've gotten nowhere. Except maybe now, I think I'm closer to being insane.Time here moves extremely quick. A few minutes above ground could amount to a day here, give or take— but mostly give. Time.. Home.. It all passed me by too quickly. I berated myself for actually coming to this place even if it was beautiful. The sound of steps brought me out of my thoughts. I could tell who it was before they said anything.Clearing his throat, he
The Devil’s Kryptonite 35. Five months
Isabelle's POV "This is Yuhan, Lehos, Megi, Acules, and Lena. They're my best underlings. If you need something or if you need to find me, you can ask one of them," Lucian explained to me. I waved awkwardly and they either spoke or nodded to me in return. Megi and Lena didn't seem too happy about me being here."I still don't get it. Why does she need to be here? I'm sure the demons above could have protected her," Lena interjected.Lucian hissed, "Because I want her here and what I say goes. Do you have a problem with it?""No, my Lord. I was just curious as to why you did such a risky thing.""Well that sounds like you have a problem, my dear Lena. I did so because I wanted to. Get out."Without another word, she vanished. The air seemed to be crisp and crackling with hesitancy. Megi spoke, "She's just distraught. She'll get over it soon. I will go take care of her so forgive her, my Lord. Don't punish her."Megi bowed and flashed me a dangerously dim glare before disappearing in
The Devil’s Kryptonite 36. Authentic
Isabelle's POV The gossip stopped, but Lucian was still being a pain in the you-know-what. He openly held my hand and kissed me even though I begged him not to—even though he knew I'd curse him out afterwards. He would suddenly pull me away from the groups or crowds & he'd rudely interrupt all of my conversations. One morning, (particularly on the first day of the second week of the month) Mother Nature stopped by for her usual visit, but it was heavier than normal. I think Lucian forgot to brainwash my parents because they suddenly asked why there was about sitting next to me in their kitchen. I had no idea how to explain it, but Lucian waved it off and I guessed he brainwashed them soon after. "What was that?" I asked."Nothing. All fixed, isn't it? Are you ready to go?""I haven't even taken a bite yet. Go away," I narrowed my eyes at him. Sometimes, I wished I could tell my parents these things I was going through, but I don't think the
The Devil’s Kryptonite 37. Want
IsabelleWhen I woke in the morning, a stupid laugh left my lips. I knew it was all a dream. There was no way something like that could've happened for real. I yawned and stretched.I jumped up out of bed and ran towards my bathroom. It's my bathroom, right? I shouldn't have to knock. But I totally should have.When the door opened, a tall, nude Lucian was standing in front of me. I thought I was still dreaming. I rubbed my eyes and he was still there sure enough. That's when it hit me."Oh my God, I'm not dreaming," I said. And then I tried to scream but nothing came out. I couldn't even move an inch of my body. My eyes wouldn't close and I was stuck looking star-struck at the bare King in front of me.He looked amused. Apparently, he didn't care that I could see everything of his. He teased, "Have you gotten your fill?"I took a deep breath and shut my eyes. "I didn't know you were here. I swear I'm going crazy."He chuckled and my knees almost gave out. "I need to use my bathroom
The Devil’s Kryptonite 38. Hurt
Isabelle The day passed by slowly, as if I was in a trance, cursed to feel unnerved for one day because of my hurtful words. Lucian wasn't here. I couldn't feel him. I couldn't smell him. I couldn't see him. He wasn't here. The hurt on his face played in my mind like a broken record. I felt a pang in my chest, for I knew why, but I didn't actually know why. I mean— it was true, wasn't it? Wasn't this just for show? Wasn't this all just for a dam deal? Just so he could win?That's right. I was being used. And I didn't want to be used. But what other choice did I have? My mom, my dad.. me. We wouldn't be able to survive if I didn't make a deal with Lucian. I looked to my left. Empty as I felt. My mind wandered to my dream, letting the words replay that were spoken from a twisted, angelic mouth. "I like you. Maybe a bit more than I care to admit. Even though I just admitted it."I smiled at the thought. I wis
The Devil’s Kryptonite 39. Not done
Isabelle I thought we were done, but we were nowhere near it. Things were just getting started. But of course, I didn't know that and neither did he. "Just like that?" I was stunned as I realized what had just happened. Our deal! "My parents, Luce! What about my parents?""I don't care," he glared at me, "I never cared. You say you aren't weak, so prove it. Protect your family. Protect yourself. Don't look for me to save you because I won't be there. Pray about it.""I can't believe you," I was still. "I really hate you."I stormed off with my lunch. It had started to rain. "Just my luck," I said under my breath. I walked under the awning until I couldn't anymore. My favorite tree welcomed me without asking any questions. The rain turned into drizzle and I allowed myself to bask in its glory. Something about it just felt right. For some reason, the ground beneath the tree wasn't wet and so I sat down without a care in the world. I ate the rest of my lunch silently. I inhaled the f
