" So, I'm Daemon. It's my first year in Hellviore Academy." He introduced himself to his friend.
" It's our first year too. I'm Alice. She's Hayley. He's Ronan and..."
" And I apologize for my crazy friend who is stalking your room," Alice added. There's no use in arguing.
" Sabrina, the craziest friend ever," Daemon murmured to himself. Nobody told him my name. How does he know?
" We are already late for class. Come on," Hayley called us. I started at him once. " I got my eye on you. Don't disappear again. We really got a lot to talk about, Daemon," I glared at him.
" Sure. But when we talk, I hope you won't pass out like you did yesterday." He said, turning his back to walk on the other side. I did lose my consciousness yesterday.
.....
The Orientation class was the most boring thing ever. I just want to move forward with the classes. When it's finally over, someone sat next to my seat.
" Hi. Can you move here? I gotta talk with Ronan." A girl asked me. Indeed I know who is she. Sam. Seeing her every time with Ronan makes me jealous. Due to a lot of stress, I haven't really thought about him a lot or talked with him.
My answer is Hell no. " Yeah, sure," But I exchanged the seat for her. I want to be a few seats away from them to avoid hearing their conversation.
" Joining here wasn't been my dream. Now, see how boring the classes are?" Ronan told her.
" The class haven't even started yet. But I know you joined here for me. It really makes me feel happy." She replied. I really convinced him to join here so Alice, Hayley, him and I won't part apart. But she's the reason all this time.
I walked out of the hall as fast as I can when the class ended. They might be good for each other. Who am I to disturb it? I'm so desperate for Ronan's attention. Why do I even like him in the first place? Is it because we have been friends for a very long time? Or he's the sweetest guy I have ever seen in my school? He doesn't get involved in any fight. He's perfect in everything. His life is perfect. Am I just addicted to the good qualities?
" Where are you going, Sabrina? Isn't your class on the right side?" I heard Ronan's voice behind me.
" Oh, yeah. Silly me. I was lost in my thoughts again. Thanks for reminding me." I acted normal.
" Are you okay?" Ronan asked me the same question which annoys me.
" I'm fine. Why does everyone keep on asking this? It irritates me."
" You don't look fine, Sabrina. I feel like you want me to leave you alone. If you want to share something, you can talk when you are feeling okay. Until then, bye," Ronan calmly spoke and left me alone.
I started losing my patience. But he's right. I need to be alone.
.....
After attending five classes with a break, I decided to go back to my room. But there's someone I forgot to think about. The Mysterious boy Daemon. I just remembered him as he's standing in front of me blocking my path.
" Can we talk now? We got a lot to catch up on."
" Yeah, you should explain why you broke into my room or I will report you in the principal's office."
" I didn't break into your room. You called me with your prayer. Believe it or not, I'm the devil in disguise. This Academy boy look really suits me." He said, running his hand over his black hair and fixing his tie. If I could admire his beauty, I would but his words confuse me.
" You have come up with a good lie. Now, what's the truth?"
" It isn't a lie. Come with me, if you don't believe me. I don't have time to have a chit-chat with you." He grabbed my hand and walked straight to the lift.
" Take your hands off me,"
" Listen carefully. You just used a spell to summon me here. I can make any of your seven wishes and then your life is yours. You would be dead. Your soul belongs to me forever. That's the deal. You can't step back from this."
" I don't get it. You are just a human. Are you pranking me?" I asked as he pressed the floor to reach our dorm floor.
" I'm in disguise. When you summoned me, I was in my true self. You can't handle it if a weak human saw me with their eyes. Now, we got to do a blood oath, then we are bounded until I collect your soul. That's what I have been doing for centuries. The box you are having right now travelled every corner of this world."
I don't want to believe any of this. But I can feel that I caused all this since I started the spell. But this is more dangerous than I thought. I don't want seven wishes to happen and then boom, I will be dead.
" Is there a way to get out of this deal? A witch gave this box to me. It wasn't my choice. I want to take it all back." I panicked. Daemon lifted my chin up to make me look into his eyes.
" There's no going back, Brina. What's done is done."
" No, there's always a way out of any trouble. You are not telling me."
" Even if there's a way, I won't be telling you. So, what do you want to be your first wish? Is it Money? popularity? A boyfriend? revenge? Tell me."
I'm speechless here. The lift opened. I walked out of it looking like a corpse.
" I don't want anything right now. I need answers to all my questions." I commanded him, hoping he won't kill me without making any wish. He's looking both dangerous and handsome. He's making me lose my sanity.
" Okay. Go on," He said, walking casually towards his room with his hands on his pant pockets.
" Um...What did you do after I passed out yesterday?"
" I was supposed to do the blood oath yesterday. But you are sacred and lost consciousness. I cleared all the mess in the room and put you in your bed. That's all."
" Can a devil sweep a broken piece of glass? I haven't heard that before." I laughed nervously.
Daemon turned back and snapped his fingers continuously until the lights on the floor started blinking fastly.
" What are you doing? Tell me it's some technical problems," I said, looking up at the lights.
" But it would be a lie. What I'm trying to say is, I can do a lot of things with the snap of my hands. I'm quite a different devil from the stories you have heard." He smirked.
Should I ask the next question or be speechless again. All this information in one day is driving me nuts. I followed Daemon as he entered his room.
" Next question, how are you living in this room when it has been locked all these times? What happened to my friend's memories? They don't remember anything about room 113."
" I already told you this. I can do anything. I can make people believe anything I wanted them to believe. Once I succeeded in collecting your soul, no one will remember me and 113 will be locked again. Do you understand?" He asked, closing the door. Being alone with him is terrifying. I never wanted to die at an early age. I don't deserve it. My death is approaching me and I bought it all to myself.
" I get it. Now, I want you to show your real identity."
" You are too weak to handle." He said, holding five to six candles in his hands. That's when I really looked at the room's surroundings. Every single object is in red and black. There are some scary faces, objects.
" Don't step on the floor," Daemon warned as I stepped back. I looked down at a star symbol and two circles outside it.
Suddenly, Daemon pulled me towards him. I didn't notice he turned off all the lights and closed the window in a way no light would enter the room. He opened my hand and slashed my palm with a knife.
" Oh my fucking god. What the hell are you doing?" I cried out in pain.
" First of all, it's 'Oh my fucking devil'. Now, don't move. We have to take a blood oath."
I'm in love with the devil. How did I let it happen?
I'm Sabrina Steward. My life is nothing special. I have feelings for a boy who doesn't even notice it. My parents worked hard to get a seat in Hellviore Acadamy for me. I was managing my life well until a small wish box found its way through my life. It transformed my life. The wish box is capable of summoning the devil and granting seven wishes. After seven wishes, I will be dead.
I should have been careful. Now, my life is in danger. Death is approaching me. And my heart is longing for the devil's love who's incapable of any emotions.
