Hide And Seek With The Devil

~Chapter XII~

     Someone could say that the young demon didn't know the place at all and that he was just stunned by the appearance of this girl while she was trying to guide him to the streets of this 'new home' of his but.... They would have been so wrong. Edward knew everything, but what's the best way to keep being with someone that you just met and guide her somewhere else in the so-called hotel he wanted to find. Whoever was new to this place wouldn't stay for long, they would have been send in circles of hell and God knows where everyone would end up. So the woman would guide him to one of the two places that the souls were staying while waiting to be judged. This place was only for one day or two, then, the souls were either staying in Hell or send back in Purgatory to suffer.

"Here we are ~" Her soft voice heard after a whole evening of them walking, making him almost wake up from the dream of him taking a better 'look' of her. He was always thinking about stuff that many would say that they were sick or just too 'inappropriate' but.... He was a demon of lust how couldn't he think or do such things?

"Won't you stay with me a little longer? You know.... I don't know where to even go in there. "

"You won't get lost, don't worry ~ You can ask them though, um-" She thought for a second and smiled softly, she remembered that...she didn't know his name. Not that it was important but he seemed that he wanted to spend more time together than just ask for help. "What's your name again?"

"I'm Edward, yours? " The man breathed out  he had walked all this way with her to guide and him to just be hypnotized by her voice...even her accent reminded him something from the past but he knew he hadn't see a woman like he before.

"Adriana, hope to see you again, Eddie~" She chuckled and waved before stepping backwards. The girl had to admit he was a cute one but she had to leave.... Her job there was done after all. Suddenly, a hand held her arm only to pull her back

"I insist Adriana... I'm in need of some company... " Her eyes were fixed to his yellow sad ones, her cheeks would soon turn to pink as the distance between them was so small, though he didn't close it, yet.

"Fine, I..... I think I can be a little late to my meeting " She murmured and smiled before standing still and following him inside the building. The whole place was covered in black or white, the curtains, the floor, the doors were wooden and the room that Edward had taken for now had all shades of grey. Her long dress that covered her slim form was crawling on the floor making a characteristic sound of the fabric touching the wood and soon the man closed the door behind. He wouldn't mind to talk for hours since the woman seemed to not be that hard to fall. After some minutes would pass by, they both were in a fight of who would dominate the situation as Edward pressed the redhead against the wall. A silent grunt escaped her lips and her hands were pinned by his above her head. Eyes were closed and their tongues were dancing like the flames of the candles around the room. Even if they didn't need the light they were both too occupied to go ahead and blow them off. His muscular arms crawled around her thighs only to lift her up and gently place her down on the soft bed before brushing some hair away from her face

"You're gorgeous... " He stared in her oh so beautiful eyes and would soon nibble all the way down on her neck as the girl tilted her head up and bit her bottom lip with a smile. She didn't have to answer that, only by instinct she would now start to take off his shirt as his fingers trailed down on her torso. He took off the top of the dress only to quickly pull the strings of her corset and throw it away. His lips touched her soft skin between her breast and crawled all the way down on her belly and even lower. The whole evening and night would run out like this as none of them was willing to even end this night and go home.

    Meanwhile, the hours were passing by quickly in the mansion and the so-called -by Sue- princess, was finally looking forward to see him but..... Once she did, he was almost boiling inside while walking to the hallways of the mansion.

"Good evening, princess" He spoke fastly and would leave a small sigh, continuing "I have to tell you something " His tone was both serious and sad, thing that made Dorothy get worried. What happened and he was so sad? The only things she remembered was that he had a job last night so she left the house for a while only to return soon and then.....the memories were becoming foggy.

"About what? " She gave him a concerned look and raised her hand to touch his shoulder. He seemed too sad to not accept it. His orbs turned to look at her and quickly enough, he gave her the answer "Tomorrow, I won't be here, I will have to leave for a week " Her orange eyes only widened to stare at him, quickly holding his arm by the sleeve. "What? No.... I want you to be here... " She would almost pout but... It wasn't up to him and she didn't know it. How could he leave her? Why? Her being alone in the house was the worst thing that could happen yet there he was.. Telling her that he wouldn't be there. She could go outdoors but...she didn't know where or where to stay to have people around and not feel that scared.

"My apologies but I can't do anything else, a....friend of mine will be here to take care of you and I will be back as soon as I can, okay? "

She couldn't do anything else than nod.. A friend of his.... Could that be Ai? Dorothy thought. If it was her then...maybe she wouldn't be that anxious about living in there with her. She had talked to her once and....even if she seemed to be too close to Sue, she didn't look like someone who would hurt her.

His feet took a step back and gave her the casual smirk of his before he walks back to his room saying a 'good evening' between his steps. He left horribly that he had to let go of her but he was sure that Priscilla would find someone that wouldn't harm the girl. She was as important to her as important to him after all. His eyes were closed finally when he laid down on his bed and let out a sigh. He had to calm down. With a move of his hand, his fingers started to burn, he didn't feel anything neither his skin was burning like a normal human would. His eyes stared at it and slowly plaid with the flame while trying to forget that the next time he sees the princess of Hell..will be the time that he would have to leave Dorothy.
