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?

She Was Hired

She didn't know which utensil went where, so the boy could do that. He had been here longer than her, at least.

The night flew by just like that. With her scrubbing diligently while the boy got better and better at drying the dishes and running to get them back into their original places.

By the end of the shift, the cooks and chefs were sitting on top of their small chairs.

"New Girl," an older gentleman called. "Care for some food?"

Anna didn't know what to say.

"Don't worry. It's leftovers that we are supposed to eat once the club closes. You worked a good night, so join us."

She was hungry enough that she didn't act polite. She joined them promptly and chewed her food slowly.

"Eat a bit more," someone said, handing her some more food. Anna looked at them oddly, suspicion blooming in their hearts. The guy shrugged. "We saw you coming in yesterday. No one is gonna feed you here if you don't ask for it. We cook for others every day so we are feeding you."
