THE DEVILS TRADE

EPHEMERAL

Slowly and reluctantly, I uncover my face. I blink, close my eyes, and blink again.  The aching in my skull ebbs and flows like a cold tide, yet the pain is always there. I understand at once why they call it a hangover, for it feels as if the blackest of clouds are over my head with no intention of clearing until late afternoon. I stretch my arms above my head and yawn.

From the pounding head, vomit taste in my mouth and dehydrated feeling i figured i must have been drinking heavily last night. my throat felt like sandpaper. It hurt to move. i preyed the blanket off me and the cool breeze hit my bare body...wait!..i quickly clutched the sheets around me why the hell am i naked! i looked around the room alarmed and saw my torn sequin top lying idle on the floor followed by my pants..

i buried my head in my arms and tried to remember traces of blurry night but all i remember was dancing with him..i must have made out with someone! soon the embarrassment engulfed me and  Eventually I got out of bed and stumbled across to the other side of the ill-lit room and walked towards the bathroom..my eyes still struggling to stay open..suddenly i hit something concrete that caught me off the guard and i landed bare butt on the rough carpet..

'WHAT THE f*****g HELL?' i shouted. My brain stutters for a moment and my eyes go wide there in front of stood none other than Lucifer with nothing but towel wrapped around his perfectly sculpted waist.

"WHAT THE f**k ARE YOU DOING HERE?" I screamed at him..he stood quietly with his infamous smirk plastered on his face. he licked his lips. s**t!

i quickly got up and lunged towards the blanked and grasp it around me. 

"calm down lady!" his said in his seductive voice

"DONT YOU LADY ME!!...ANSWER MY QUESTION NOW!" i pointed accusingly at him.."o my god did you drug me" i stared disbelievingly at him.

"whoa! there hold your horses..you really were wasted last night dont you remember what we did"

i suddenly felt sick and pale my eyes and  my mouth were frozen wide open in an expression of stunned surprise...my cheeks went crimson and i was overcome with embarrassment.

"d..did you .ss.screw me last night" 

"actually..we screwed each other last night"

"oh my god..why..why!!" tears threaten to spill and i felt disgusted at myself.

"hey! you loved it believe me after two rounds you still wanted to come more" he stated feeling proud.

i stared frustratingly at him..." I WAS f*****g DRUNK LAST NIGHT OKAY?!? I WASN'T IN MY SENSES BUT YOU WERE YOU SON OF A b***h AND YOU TOOK ADVANTAGE OF ME YOU..YOU.DEVIL! I HATE YOU"

"first of all...i didn't took advantage you and what the f**k are you making such a big deal out of it huh it was just a one night stand!" he sounded pissed 

"you dont understand.i am not your whore...now please get out of here" i whispered my voice was broke now and tears were spilling. 

he gave a one seething glance at me and  slammed the door..i buried my head in my hands and cried until i couldn't. i wasn't supposed to cheat on my husband! at least not with the f*****g devil himself!

LUCIFER POV 

i woke up to the sound of gentle breathing of angel beside me i opened my eyes and silently admired her..last ngiht seemed so magical..she slightly stire beside me and i pulled her closer i traced her lip lightly with the tip of my finger. It pouts slightly, and I have such an urge to bite it, to kiss it, to wrap us up in a quilt and listen to our gentle breathing.. Her lip feels slightly chapped under my feather light touches but I simply cannot bring myself to give a damn.

 I gaze so intently at each divot of that lip, as if it could map out ancient seas and tell me everything I don't know. And I don't want to look up. Because if I look up, I may find myself at the mercy of questioning eyes, pleading, begging to know what I was doing!

This feeling is so strange; it stretches throughout my whole body. It’s overwhelming, yet makes me feel complete. It has no bound nor length nor depth; it’s just absolute. It feels as though I’m in a dangerous fire, yet I’m completely safe at the same time..it felt so wrong...i took my time to match every curve of her...she is so beautiful...Roseangel! just like her name shes a rose with thorns..fierce and fragile at the same time..i sighed and brought myself to my feet and headed towards the bathroom.

i couldn't stop thinking about her...no matter how hard i try..i splash cold water on my face..this is so wrong! stop youre the  ruthless devil!  

then i took a quick cold bath and and tied towel around my waist and got out..out of nowhere i knock myself to something and there in all her beauty lay my Aphrodite naked on the floor. i stare amusingly at her while she screamed at me...it was like she doesn't remember what happened last night i felt a bit disappointed 

"hey! you loved it believe me after two rounds you still wanted to come more" i said feeling pride.  

." I WAS f*****g DRUNK LAST NIGHT OKAY?!? I WASN'T IN MY SENSES BUT YOU WERE YOU SON OF A b***h AND YOU TOOK ADVANTAGE OF ME YOU..YOU.DEVIL!...I HATE YOU" she said with pure hatred. i was taken back and anger bubbled in me.

"first of all...i didn't took advantage you and what the f**k are you making such a big deal out of it huh it was just a one night stand!" i tried to sound cool but i myself knew to me it was more than a one night stand.

  "you dont understand.i am not your whore...now please get out of here" i was in utter shock..is that what she thinks...

i quickly bolted out of the room to the corridor. my heart thundered wildly against my chest..and my lips quivered...I have never felt this way..i clicked my fingers and got dressed and headed towards the Limbo...
