what are you doing demon

When the car finally stopped in the market, everyone's face was ashen, and eyes bulged out. They had never thought that a car could be driven so fast. It felt like the car was talking to the air.

They came out stumbling, it took some time for them to maintain their balance. They were surprised to see Bella and Evelyn standing there just fine. In fact, Evelyn was laughing too.

Bella came forward and helped Anna by holding her hand, the way she had seen in the movie with Anna.

Anna smiled, and slowly they started moving together. Bella noticed Evelyn looking at the distance. She followed her eyes only to find a group of elves hiding in a corner.

She narrowed her eyes at Evelyn, just what was she trying to do? Why were a bunch of elves following them?

"Girls, why don't we go ahead, and let Bella and Alex go to the jeweller?" asked Mike, eying Anna, who nodded her head.

"Yes, I want to have something to eat," said Anna, winking at Mike.

"Didn't we just have breakfast half an hour ago?" asked Alex furrowing his brows.

"Oh, I mean I want to eat ice cream," replied Anna with a sheepish smile.

"Why are you asking so many questions?" asked Mike, "it won't look good if five people go to a shop just for a small exchange." he reasoned.

And without waiting for Alex's reply, he took Anna and Evelyn with him.

Bella wanted to join to stay close to the mother elf. Although she knew elves did not harm humans, they could play a trick or two. They were known for their mischievous nature after all.

But they were already gone, and Alex was looking at him with his bright blue eyes. Sun was reflecting in his eyes making it brighter than usual, even his blonde hairs were shining.

Bella blinked, not because her system was reading the emotions or mind of Alex, but she was feeling something strange again. Why was she looking at Alex like that?

'He is her saviour' she mused and nodded satisfied with the answer.

Alex was also watching the girl who has emotions on her face for the first time. Mostly she just remained blank. He was walking while looking at her when suddenly she pulled him in her arms.

For a moment he was dazed in her arms. He couldn't hear what she was asking though he saw her lips moving clearly. All he felt at that very moment was an overwhelmingly warm and indescribable feeling. A feeling that made him unconsciously clenched his fist tight. A feeling that was unknown to him.

But before he could dwell deeper in it, the girl let him go. He felt the jerk on his shoulder and saw Anna there with a worried expression.

Mike and Evelyn were also standing there. 'What happened didn't they just go to have ice cream'

He blinked and saw all those have the same worried expression, and when his hazy senses cleared, he heard Mike shouting, which he rarely did

"Are you fucking blind, or do you want to die. Come let me help you then."

Although he was shouting he could feel the concern. Alex didn't know what happened, all he could remember was Bella pulled him and hugged.

But he could guess what had happened through everyone's reaction. He looked around and found a car had hit the tree at the distance. 'Was that car going to hit me?'

He gulped, and replied, "why are you so worried, am I not standing here without even a single scratch."

"That's because Bella pulled you, brother Alex. What were you thinking while crossing the road?" asked Anna in a worried voice.

'I was lost in her expressions' he widened his eyes when the thought crossed his mind, he was actually lost thinking about her dreamy expressions just a while ago. How! Why!

Looking at his lost face they all thought that he was still in a daze because of the accident. So they let the matter go.

"It's okay, just pay more attention into the future," said Mike. "Thank you, Bella."

"Thank you, Bella, you saved my lifeline," said Anna hugging Bella.

"Thank you, Bella, I will pay more attention next time, are you hurt anywhere?" asked Alex, looking at Bella.

Bella blinked at them, she never felt so strong feelings from anyone around her. They all hated her in hell, but now she could feel care and concern.

When all the eyes were set on Alex and the demon, Evelyn was also staring at the demon. She could not believe that a demon had saved a human.

When elves told her that a demon had come here, and tried to attack them, she was furious.

How could a demon just walk into their house and try to hurt them? But then Lazby, a grumpy elf told her that she didn't attack anyone just came here to find me, the mother elf.

Confused, she had checked the recordings from the cameras she had fitted in the room, to check their working progress.

And as Lazby had said, the demon just tried to talk to them and left her address.

So, the mother elf took the address with mischief filled eyes and decided to check what the demon was actually trying to do.

The moment she met the demon, she could smell blood on her body. As expected the demons just knew killing. She was ready to send her back to hell, but she was afraid as the humans around her got implicated.

So she was trying to find a chance.

But she had never expected that the demon would danger her life for a human. Because demons don't have souls. If she died, she would go extinct.

Only in the morning, she was so determined to stay here and now!

Their eyes met and Bella narrowed her eyes looking at her. The way Bella was looking at her was like she was blaming her for the accident.

'What are you trying to do demon!'
