chapter 10: people in the painting

The place was surprisingly quiet when I got back.

There was no nice at all and i was finally free of Toni although the shopping day was nice.

As I walk down the hall and to my room I bump back into varcity.

She was dressed up into a small dark purple frock with a small bow wrapped around her waist.

"Why are you all dressed up?" I ask in curiosity.

Varsity returned a happy smile and looked up at me with excitement as my confusion and curiosity list grew more.

"Angelica said she would take us all out to dinner. Even you" she said and smiled happily again before dragging me to my room.

I let out a small chuckle as varsity rummaged through my things for something nice for me to wear.

After a while I was changed into a long white tank top with a picture of as skill inked onto the fabric, a black jacket, pair of blue skiny jeans and wight trainers with ankle high socks.

Looking into the large mirror on the wall I smile and look over the outfit varcity picked out for me.

For a childish demon she sure did have a good taste in style.

I smile happily before following varsity to meet Asher and angelica.

☆☆☆☆☆☆

The restaurant was once again nicely done up and looked very wealthy and posh.

You could tell Asher and angelica had gone out on many posh dinners as I hardly would have ever left the house... that was always chaise job, the only time I would is when it would get dark and hardly anyone but the pissed teenagers or people coming back from doing the close at places they worked.

Everyone was in very nice cloths but they wasnt to fancy like people would wear on a meeting.

Angelica had a pair of tight white leggings with a light blue shirt with ling sleeves and a white cardigan, her shoes were white nike trainers and no socks.

Around her neck was a small silver chain.

When we ran out of drinks asher would get up and grab another bottle from the kitchen and would sometimes come out with two wine glasses as he looked at us all. 

There was two other people with us as well.

One was girl with raven black hair that had a beautiful blending blue Colour in it. Her eyes were a dim light green. She was wearing a black lether jacket a pair of black denim riled shorts and a pair of tights under them. Her shoes were black boots with a small heal. The boots when up to her knee.

They had a lase and a zip to keep them done up. Next to her was a boy with dark brown messy hair and lovely brown eyes. He was wearing a black lether jacket blue jeans and trainers his top underneath was a plane wight with one pocket on it.

The other was a male with curly locks combed and tammed as mutch as It could, His eyes a beautiful brown.

He wore a dark blue suit with brightly polished black work shows ans black socks that you could see ever so slightly.

A cough erupted out of the conversation drawing all of aware attentions to angel as she cut some food on her plate with slow slices and gently putting it in her mouth before swallowing and begging to speak.

"Now that we're all settled in." She said with a small smile. "Could we talk about your deal Asher that you made with this girl?"

The Male named Alex nodded his head as did the girl named sophie.

The idea they was talking about me made me uncomfortable and made me wish I wasn't there now.

I didn't want to talk about chaise and how he had cheated on me with my best friend.

It was as still a aching pain in my heart and the feeling never really went away.

"Angelica this isn't any of your business!" He growled coldly as Asher shoot a warning glare to her way.

If looks could kill angelica would be a pile of vaperised dust on the floor.

Sophie huffed and looked at Asher as she placed her glass down to talk.

"Actually Asher she is right after all we all have a part of the circles to rule. Your the king. Alex is the boss of the first circle Limbo. Angelic takes the deals to do with death or preventing death and I'm the boss of Wrath the fith circle of hell" she stated looking at him with a calm manor.

Asher let out a huff and growled.

He clearly wanted things his way and leave it at that.

"Fine but I'm not changing my deal with her" he said and glared at them all and he squeezed his glass harder.

My hand started to feel as if it was tingling before long it started to feel like it was burning.

I feel a tug in my arm to look at varsity just for her to pointo out my marking from the deal was glowing brightly.

I wanted to run away from the conversation.

I hadnt wanted to try that since the first week here but more I was the center of attention, a problem and it made me scared.

It made me feel sick and anxious.

"Your mark is glowing is somone regretting there deal?" Angelica giggled.

I shake my head quickly my heart pounding.

If course i regretted this, this hole thing was a mistake, I could have just said now and have been laying in my own bed right now and texting somone else or watching a movie, I would even prefer to be yelling at cora and chaise right about now, at least then I would have a choise in what heppend with my life.

Instead I'm here having people talk like I wasn't even around like I was nothing but below them.

Like a weak human.

"So lucy? What was your deal?" Alex asked as he sipped at his drink and watched me carefully.

The memory was fresh in my mind about that night.

I could remember the lights only giving off a a small amount of light.

I was so paranoid that night when I figured somone was following me.

The street was dark cars and even the people on the streets were oddly quieter them what they should have been.

"I was made the deal to save my boyfriend but if he hurt me or left for a reason in would have to come to hell" I said simply

"She's a human it's against the rules for her to be in your home technically" sophie stated.

So far I liked this girl I wanted to leave this hell hold even if it had grown on me slightly.

No ophens to asher or any of them but I wanted my life back even if it was crap,. Asher eyes when black at Sophies words he, wasn't happy.

"Little sister no ophence but I make the rules for my land" he said before calming down and his eyes started to return to normal.

I was suprised that he was so strict on me being here.

Angelica just smiled and hummed as she talked about the deal and how the rules went, she clearly knew how to get under his skin and anoy him.

"Do you don't have a written contract with him? Just a marking?" Angelica asked.

Asher growled again and glared at her as alex just chuckled and smiled as did sophie.

"Okay big brother calm down. Honestly I dont care that mutch about her I need to get back to my ring as the river isnt going to gain soles on it own" she smiled "but as we are in this subject would you move someone from my realm for me?"

Asher nodded and smiled before she  snapped her fingers disappearing into a large curtain of blue fire.

Asher huffed gulping down more alcohol he clearly had a large intolerance to it.

Alex was still sat down in his chair watching the scenes play out before him.

"So Angelica? Are you still working for gabe?" Alex asked teaseing a brow with a smile on his lips.

Angelica didn't answer she just sat there and frowned as she narrowed her eyes at alex in annoyance.

After a while everyone had finished there plates and polished the last bits of there drinks off.

Angelica smiled trying to flirt with Asher as alex asked me a few normal conversational questions like were I came from? What I liked? Favourite things to do? He even asked about my hobbies and favourite colour.
