Daemon

"Take it easy, Daemon. I forgot to introduce myself. My name is—well, most people simply call me the grim reaper and I think that’s sufficient for you.”

The names didn't sound familiar, I was still in the dark and it was becoming quite frustrating but it didn’t matter.

I was going to figure out who he was one way or the other and that smirk he had on his face would be wiped off completely.

I crushed the butt of my cigar as my expression suddenly grew serious.

"Do you know why you're here?" I asked.

“Yes, I do. But before you ask me any other question, can I get what’s on my chest off and then, you can do whatever you want?”

I sighed, running my hand over my hair.

“Okay, shoot.”

“Do you know who I am?”

I fixed him with a glare that meant he just asked a stupid question but since I was doing my best to be civil, I felt it would be best if I stay calm.

"No." My reply was curt.

Another agonizing pause followed.

  • Sinful Desires: Craving My StepBrother’s Touch   Chapter 38

    DaemonI dropped her off at the house before racing down to the location picked for the meeting. My uncle had arrived an hour ago and the meeting was supposed to have started already. I knew he was going to get mad that I was running late for the second time in a row. I asked Bene to come up with a plausible explanation for me but my uncle was smart and the chances of him buying it was close to zero. I parked the bike in the parking lot before racing into the club, trying to cut down on how many minutes I’ve wasted already. “You’re late.” It wasn’t a question, it was a statement that hit me as soon as I walked briskly into one of the rooms that my father had often used whenever he wanted to have a private discussion with anyone. It took me a long time to convince my father to come on board with this plan and he eventually accepted after he survived an attack. He had gotten better over time and the doctor deemed it fit for him to return to his office but he had fallen in love wit

    DaemonWe spent the next one week at the hospital and while I recover after two days, it took longer for Julienne because of the amount of carbon dioxide she had inhaled while she was in the burning house. The only time I left her bedside was when Bene brought the damning news of the so-called Grim Reaper’s escape to me. I saw red that day and I took turns in beating every single guard that had been on duty into a pulp before tossing them out on the street. There was no room for mistakes and margins for errors didn’t exist. This was the second attempt at me and members of my group, I had to get answers from someone or somewhere soon before I would be the recipient of another attack. Bene was searching the city for the Grim reaper but I knew he was long gone by now, probably in another state or another country. He was a smart man and if he had infiltrated a private dinner that had state of the art security system and personnel then he sure as well knew how to shake off a trail. A

    DaemonA couple of hours agoI checked my watch as I looked towards the direction in which Julienne passed through about half an hour ago. She was supposed to be back a long time ago but she wasn’t. I tried to put it down to her trying to calm herself down before coming back but I was starting to get worried for her safety.I knew I shouldn’t have let her go alone but it was too late to cry over spilled milk. “Maybe she’s just being extra or she’s talking to a new friend that she just met, you know how women are when it comes to gossip, Daemon.” Bene said, trying to reassure me that all was well but I could detect the hint of worry in his voice. He knew as much as I did that something wasn’t right. Ten minutes passed and I had enough, I couldn’t wait anymore. “Someone needs to go look for her in there, Bene. It’s been forty minutes, man. Something isn’t right.”“Do you think she might have run away?” Bene asked, his eyes glued to his phone as he tapped on the screen furiously.

    JulienneI blinked severally, trying to see who my assailant was, to see if it was the same man but I couldn’t and I slowly slipped into darkness. When I woke up, I was in a little room that appeared to be a cabin. I felt a wave of fear take hold of me, as I believed that I was in a boat or ship that might be taking me to a place I didn’t even know existed and no one would be able to find me. To make matters worse, the chamber was extremely cold. Glancing around the run-down chamber, I yelled for help and for the presence of someone to explain to me what the hell was going on. I was shouting at the top of my lungs, trying to gain some sense of clarity in all of this. The man’s empty eyes flashed in my head again and I suddenly realized that he was the last person I could recall seeing while I was conscious. I watched as the door opened and a man entered—the same man that had attacked me in the restroom. There was an aggressive smirk on his lips. I recognised the man’s face and at

    JulienneDespite my initial attempts to turn down his offer, Daemon made me tag along to the dinner party he was going to attend. There was nothing I said or tried to do that changed his mind, he wanted me to come and that was the end of the discussion. Technically, I would have resisted further but I knew that if I said anything else, Daemon would have no problem throwing me over his shoulder and bringing me here with or without my consent if he had to, he was that kind of man. As we made our way in, I took one look around to know that I was out of my place. There was no room for someone like me here but Daemon felt otherwise. I didn’t know why he was being nice to me all of a sudden, but I welcomed the change regardless. I was tired of being treated like trash anyways so this new development felt nice for a change. “You should’ve left me at home, Mr—Daemon.” I sighed.I was still getting used to calling him by his first name in an informal manner. Bene had been surprised by the
