Chapter 45



“I’m embarrassed about what happened to her, Sir,” Avery said.

Reed sat on the swivel chair, while Avery stood in front of his table. He asks questions as to why Avery avoids Emy.

“If you’re bashful, you shouldn’t treat her like that, and you shouldn’t avoid her,” Reed said. “Are you aware that what you’re doing is causing Emy pain? She’s about to die because she saves you, Avery, and that’s what you’re going to do?”

Avery burst into tears. “Damn it, Avery, why are you crying?”

“I’m sorry,” Avery apologized.

“I believe you should tell Emy that,” Reed said. He took up the intercom and led Emy into his office. A knock on the door soon interrupted them.

“Come in,” said Reed.

Emy approached Avery as she opened the door with astonishment. “Did something happen?” Emy asked. Emy spotted Avery sobbing. “What are you sobbing about?” Emy stared at Reed, then quickly approached him and slapped him on the arm.

.....

“Aw, why?” Reed asked, surprised. He was astonished as Emy abruptly slammed into his arms. He caressed his arm.

“Why did you make Avery cry?” Emy asked.

“What?” Reed asked.

“Miss Emy,” Avery said. Reed and Emy both turned to look at her. “Please accept my apologies.”

“Avery,” Emy said. Emy approached Avery, who was astonished when she unexpectedly hugged her. “What’s the matter, Avery?”

“Sorry, I don’t want to ignore you, Miss Emy,” Avery, who was crying, explained. “I just don’t know how to cope with you. I can’t even look you in the eyes.”

“What?” Emy said. “Avery, why are you uncomfortable with me? It has been a month, and I’m OK.”

Emy hugged Avery after she said nothing. “Haist, Avery, you don’t have to be guilty. I’m okay.”

Reed quietly smiled. He noticed his wrist scar was vanishing. He frowned and stared at the two women.

‘How is this even possible?’ Reed thought.

He even massaged the area that was slowly vanishing. He did not know Emy was looking at him. Avery was no longer in the room, and Emy was on the other side of the table in front of him. Emy saw the vanishing Reed’s scar on his wrist vanishing. Reed continued to caress it, and it, like him, was astounded by what she saw.

“Thank you, Reed...” Emy said.

Reed stared at Emy and then turn around, and Avery was no longer there. Emy noticed this.

“Avery had left earlier,” Emy explained. “You’re too focused on your wrist.”

Reed rose to his feet and approached Emy, wrapping his hands around her hips and kissing her on the lips. That was really quick.

“Are you happy?” Emy asked.

“I am. Let’s have a date later.” Reed said.

“OK,” Emy answered with a smile.

Reed let go of Emy’s hip. “I’m going back to the chin. Today is a really busy day.” Emy said as she stepped out the door.

“It seems that you are happy with my present.”

Reed looked over at the girl who was standing next to him. Reed chuckled and sat down in front of the child.

“You’re so cute!” Reed said. The child surprised Reed with a loud slap. “Aw! ”

Reed grabbed his cheek. “I told you to watch your speaking,” the child said.

“Fine,” Reed responded as he scooped up the child and set her in the chair in front of his desk. “What kind of present are you referring to?”

“Every good act you do for humans in return heals your wounds and eliminates the scars on your body,” the child explained. “However, no matter how horrible a human seems if you kill someone...”

“I already know that thing,” Reed said.

“But you have to be reminded every time that your patience is running out,” the child said. “Did you realize that emotion can kill?”

“I know, I’m a demon. That’s my strength,” Reed said.

“I’m leaving,” the child said as she sprang out of the chair and dashed out the door.

Reed looked at the child until it was no longer visible. He took a glance at his wrist.

‘Is it to all humans or just Emy?’ Reed thought.

Meanwhile, Devin was watching Emy’s office from the opposite side of the road, in a coffee shop. He sees Emy from his seat. He couldn’t understand why he was covertly watching Emy all the time after he helped her. She seems to be a fool for what she is doing, and the most infuriating part is that Reed chose her to be the queen of the realm.

‘What the hell happened to me?’ Devin thought.

Reed’s senses are stronger than everyone else’s, therefore he can see Reed’s hand slipping on Emy’s hip and kissing her. He averted his gaze as he felt a stinging sensation in his chest. He wasn’t familiar with the feeling, but he didn’t care and disregarded it.

‘Tsk, scumbag humans. Why am I wasting my time with her?’ Devin thought.

Devin frowned as he noticed Reed talking with a child from the office. ‘Where did that child come from?’ Devin thought.

Devin saw the child racing out of Reed’s office and waited for it to come down the stairs, but a woman spoke from in front of Devin. He was distracted.

“You could,” Devin replied. The woman sat on the opposite side of the table and he peered back into Reed’s office, but there was no sign of a child.

‘Where did that child come from? And where did it go?’ Devin thought.

Devin cast a peek at the woman, who returned his gaze. “Stop looking at me,” the woman said.

“Don’t think too highly of yourself. I’m not interested in low-class humans,” Devin said as he raised his hand and involuntarily spilled the iced coffee the woman was drinking on her dress.

When he got out of the coffee shop, he noticed Eve standing outside Emy’s office in the distance.

‘What on earth is she doing here?’ Devin thought.

He smiled as Eve approached Reed’s office, but Reed hastily dragged Eve away.

Devin thought, ‘Interesting.’

“He came out, Miss Emy. He just seemed to be heading somewhere. ”

Emy looked towards the office door. Their office will be closed after 30 minutes, and Reed invited her out on a date. Emy frowned as she recognized the man who had walked through the door. Avery and Jasmin were equally distracted. Jasmin instantly approached a stunning man who was staring at Emy.

“Hello Sir,” Jasmin said.

Devin turned to face Jasmin. “Hi.”

Emy went up to Devin. “It’s you”

Devin shifted his gaze to Emy. “Hello. You seem OK. ”

“Y-Yeah...” Emy said. “What are you doing here?”

Devin moved closer to their mini model houses nearby, and Emy followed.

Devin chuckled. “I want you to date you,” Emy was blown surprised by what he said. “I’m just kidding, but it’s fine if you bite it.”

“How can you make such a prank on me? I don’t know you yet,” Emy said.

Devin came up to Emy. He was incredibly near, and no other man could approach her like that except Reed. Jasmin and Avery saw what the man was doing.

“Haist, why do only good-looking men approach Miss Emy?” Jasmin whispered to Avery.

“But isn’t it cute? What if Sir Reed found out about this? Another man is interested in his girlfriend. What may happen?” Avery hushed. “Who will Miss Emy choose?”

Emy gulped and drew her face away from Devin as he moved his face closer to hers. Devin noticed Emy blushing. He studied Emy’s eyes, from her nose to her lips. Devin remembers Reed kissing it earlier. Devin shifted his sight away from Emy’s lips and back to Emy’s eyes.

“Would you date me if I said my name?” Devin asked.

“I’m sorry, but I already have a boyfriend,” Emy explained.

Devin chuckled. “Okay. So I guess I’ll simply compete with your boyfriend.”

Devin noticed Emy’s quietness. “Fine, no more jokes; you seem to be more afraid than laughing.”

“Yeah, well, you noticed,” Emy said.

“I want to buy a house. Fully furnished and ready to move in.” Devin said.

“All OK,” Emy said. “I have some fantastic spots to recommend to you. What is your preference?”

“Tell me, which option should I take?” Devin asked.

Emy simply nodded. “All right, let’s take a seat.”

Devin and Emy both moved closer to the sofa. Emy took a seat next to Reed and opened a clear book.

Meanwhile, Reed and Eve were seated in a coffee shop in the mall. Away from the office so that no one could see, even Avery or Jasmin. Eve is stunning, and because she is disguised in human clothing, no one suspects that she is a sex-obsessed demon. And it seems that every man and woman in the realm has had a taste of her, but not him.

“What brings you here?” Reed asked.

.....

“I’m intrigued,” Eve said. She took a glance around. There are many people in the mall, and the coffee shop is busy.

“Are you curious about this world? There is nothing wonderful in this world,” Reed said.

Eve cast a peek at Reed. “There’s Reed,” Eve pointed out. “Your chosen queen.”

Reed frowned as he looked at Eve.
