The Secret Life of the Demon's Wife

“You tried to kill me before, why can’t you do it now?” she asked, her eyes burning with fury. “I didn’t love you back then.” He shrugged. “What?” Ladislas Forester was a bored immortal looking for a thrill. And then, Anna Dunn crash-landed into his monotonous life. The first time he saw her, she had sneaked into the men’s bathroom and seen more of him than anyone else had. The second time, he saw her sitting at the back of the class during his lecture, dozing off. The third time, he found out that she didn’t even flinch at the sight of a dead body. The supervillain in him was intrigued. Death to those that say Anna Dunn was a boring girl with no future! She was clearly living a secret life! For once, Ladislas was fascinated by someone. He was willing to put her over the greater good. He was selfish and unkind. She was the invisible hero who could only offer him the second position in her life. Her duty came first. He, though… He could burn the world for one last glimpse of her. And so, the supervillain fell in love with the hero. That couldn’t be a good thing, right? Sometimes, the hero is corrupted by the villain and switches their side. Other times, the villain becomes a wife-dotting slave and gives her everything she asks for. Which one do you think will happen?

I Came Prepared

Not that she cared much for it. As long as the current Director was at the helm of operations, she was safeguarded from being hunted down. She didn't care about the security of the rest. In serving his selfish desires to stay in power, she would probably help a few people along. 

As long as she survived. That was the only purpose of her life, right? To serve, to follow every command without question, and keep her mouth shut about the rest. 

She placed the drink in front of Ladislas. He watched her closely.

"It's close to the last call," he commented. "He really wanted to talk to her privately."

Her eyes fluttered close as she thought about it. "I'll call you when I am alone. Don't save the number, understood? Don't call back." She gave him a no-nonsense look.

He nodded eagerly. "This is my last drink. Bring me the bill after this, okay?"

For some reason, the seats beside him had not filled in. Everyone just sat at the tables.
