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?

You Went Shopping?

Manners could get you a long way. The hierarchy demanded respect and if you followed it, your life was easy.

When Pops came out, his eyes were weary. He noticed her sitting on the ground. His shoulders visibly relaxed. "You going somewhere?" he asked.

Anna nodded. "I wanted to take your permission before leaving. I just wanted to get some stuff to wear. I got… a few complaints yesterday," she explained, making sure to add embarrassment to her tone. 

Pops nodded. "It is important for people in the service industry to look their best. Go ahead. None of us want to follow you around as you shop," he told her. Having received her notification, he didn't find it weird that she had to go. And this one followed the rules to a T.

Anna was already wearing her boots by the time Pops came out of the bathroom. He gave her a quick nod as she opened the door and left.
