Here you go with your surprise!

ERIK'S POV.

I looked at the person standing in front of me. Jeremiah had brought him here.

I played with my gun as I held his gaze. He was sweating.

"What you want to tell me?" I asked him.

Jeremiah walked to my side bending down, his hair grown till his shoulder coming forward.

"He lives in the Wing." Jeremiah whispered.

It didn't take me long to realise he was talking about Damion's Wing.

I nodded as my mind spun with the thoughts. I knew he was not to be trusted. I knew I should not hear whatever he was about say.

This might be just Damion's plan.

The Rey!

I scoffed internally.

I nodded at him. I was going to let him speak. Believing him was totally my option and I wasn't planning to.

"You are?" I asked him.

"Leonardo." He said scared.

He had sharp features with hazel eyes and blonde hair. His fingers trembling slightly on the glass table causing a small sound.

I could see him glancing every where in the room.

"Speak up." Jeremiah snapped.

He flinched at the voice as if he was lost somewhere.

"Damion. Uh.. He sent me to you." He said in a shaky voice.

I raised my eyebrows at him.

"Yeah. To spy over you and give him some information." Leonardo continued.

"Why are you telling me this then?" I asked leaning over the table.

"Because I don't like him." He stated.

"No one does. But once he finds out, you know what he will and he can do." I pointed out.

"Yes. I know." He said.

"Then why are you risking your life?" I asked him, "It can't be just because you hate him..?" I said.

He nodded.

"I want to help my best friend." He replied.

I again raised a questioning eyebrow at him.

"Argyl, she is in love with him. He is not good for her." He said.

It took me a moment to catch what he actually was saying. I was caught by her name.

I didn't show any trace of emotions on my face.

I felt Jeremiah stiffening at his words.

She was in love with him. The Demon. The Rey. She was in love with him.

I nodded at him encouraging him to continue.

"He says he loves her. But she deserves better. I want to help her get out of there. She is not able to see what he really is. What he really does." He said in a small voice.

"So you want him to fall?" I asked him.

He nodded.

"I will do anything to save her." He said.

I nodded taking in everything.

"So you want to work for me?" I asked him.

He nodded.
