“Who are you?” Jasmine asked with fear surging through her. This man before her looked nothing like anything good. If you judged by his multiple tattoos and the soft faraway look on his face, Jasmine felt like taking the easy way out of her apartment. His features looked soft but it was doing more of scaring her than making her actually calm. She didn’t want to die just like her mom.

Her carelessness and forgetfulness was the reason her mum and this might be her fate too.

Instead of answering her question, he takes time to tear apart the rose flower he was holding. He removed each petals with a soft smile and he hummed to a tune Jasmine has never heard before. The sound was soft and calming, something she hadn’t felt in months.

“Call me peace, I bring that to people.” He said softly and she scoffed. If someone covered in tattoos could preach peace, then the men that killed her mom could be mistaken as popes. He didn’t find her scoff amusing so he continued ripping apart the flowers.

“I thought you brought that for me, why are you tearing them apart.” She asked and he looked up at her before flashing her a smile. He took the last petal away from the thorn and he smiled. She rolled her eyes before she walked to the fridge to grab another beer. This man sitting in her siting room made no sense and nothing made sense in her own life. She was getting used to nothing making sense to her anymore. She turned around and he was no longer sitting where he was, he was close to her and that alone made her scared.

"Hey, don't you be scared, I brought you a rose!" The strange man who stood by the door spoke. He stretched his hands to give her another rose. She had thought he tore them to bits and him producing her another one felt like a cheap magic thrills.

Axel has the power to read minds, being a Devil; it's a neat trick up his sleeves.

He felt when her heart jolted, He felt her fear and her shock. She stood like a log

Is it because I am irresistible? I know I can be what the ladies want but this silence isn't something that should take this long, she isn't even stuttering. What gives?!

He stared in her eyes and watched her. Her mind was blank, not a question she asked herself or an expression she wore.

She sighed and folded her arms, she seemed fearless.

I like fearless. He nodded when he saw she changed her stance.

"Thanks for the drinks, now who are you?" She asked as she sat down, Jasmine didn't care who he was or what he did. She didn't even say thank you, she took out a bear and dropped her bag. With her teeth she opened the beer and took a gulp.

"Well!" Axel wasn't completely surprised but I would say he didn't expect that at all. He closed the door and stood to watch her.

"Ahhh" She said when she took the bottle out of her mouth. "So what did you say your name was again?" She asked, her legs were on her table, she removed her shoes when he looked away.

"Hades, my name is Hades" He lied about his name, he didn't have a reason to lie, he just wanted to….for the fun of it.

"Hade! That's a nice name now what are you looking for in my house?" She asked it seems she wanted to have a conversation this time.

"Oh wow, that was direct; wasn't it?" He asked her calmly while he smiled; he liked how calm she was.

She seemed prettier. "That dark cloud has disappeared." He thought to himself.

He has spent nights watching her sleep and days watching her wake up, he saw how she would enter the bus and ride to work, the same coffee that she always ordered. She wore the same face everyday, she wore the same cloth for a week and carried the sake bag, the bottles of bear was always changed but she never noticed, some nights the pizza would be steaming hot which he was the reason. And some cold nights that she slept without a blanket, she would wake up to one.

"I did say I was your peace after all; so that's why I am here. Didn't you notice how neat your home is? Or how nice they smell? Your outfits? Can't you see how arranged it is?" Hades asked Jasmine who seemed to have zoned off.

"So you are a what? Home services? Thanks for beer." She replied coldly, without a smile. She was sarcastic.

"An home service?" You must be kidding!" He growled and fumed, he took deep breathes and laughed it off.

"You wanted to be my peace, buying me drinks was enough the whole cleaning was just Being extra!" Jasmine added with a smirk, she finished the first bottle and was going to the next.

"Alright, calm down on that." Hades spoke and grabbed her by the hand, he only wanted to take the bottle away. He didn't know what activated; they teleported together.

In seconds they appeared at a park. Hades closed his eyes and opened them, he wondered what happened. He gulped softly.

"What? What just happened? We went out?" Jasmine asked as she realised they weren't at her house anymore, the touch made her drunk side disappear, he calmed her down but it had another effect.

"Yeah, you said you were feeling stuffy, so we went for a ride; you intentionally and decided for us to come to the park!" He lied for the second time. He sighed when he did.

He wondered what activated his teleportation powers.

Was it because she was drunk? Or was it the rose? What just happened?

He felt a surge of energy when he touched her and when they teleported.

"Was it she? Did she wanted to come to the park?"

Unsure of what happened, he waved the thought away

"I don't remember wanting to come to the park." Jasmine explained when she felt confused.

"I already explained, you don't believe me?" Hades asked her as he stood in front of her.

"I don't trust you!' Her tone suddenly changed. He felt she became stronger.

"What's wrong? Why did you stand up?" He asked when she saw how strange she acted.

"And who changed my clothes?" She folded her arms taking him for a pervert, he laughed it off.

"Relax, you picked out your clothes!" He lied and held her hands, another mistake.

"You are a liar!" She yelled.

He removed his hands when he felt a surge of electricity. He folded his hands behind him and two steps.

"You can't defend yourself! Can you?" Jasmine yelled off and stomped her foot.

"Woman!" Would you calm down?" He said without a thought, he was angry. His other side came out.

His wings!

Her eyes widened, she lost all words, her senses failed her, her words did too.

    Axel. "Why don't you come down here and let's talk?" Axel asked as he stood up and held his bat once again.'I will finish this mother , even if it's the last thing I do. He knew Jasmine would be fine and okay, but the rage that he had in him was so much that he needed more time and to deal with him properly.'"When you always disappeared with her. That is wrong, that is totally wrong." Joe said and Axel got bored. He closed his eyes and appeared where Joe was.Joe's eyes widened. His men left in seconds. He tried to grab something to defend himself with but there was nothing close or nearby."Hey, stay away. Back off." He screamed like a five year old. Axel scoffed and hit him with the bat, he glared his eyes at Joe who was being an asshole. "Oh" He coughed out blood and landed on the floor. The wires all got tangled on his hands and legs. Axel barely did anything."We will meet in hell and you will suffer more!" He threatened and hit him again with the bat, he did that over and ove

    Jasmine. "Hey love, we are going somewhere." Joe said as his men came to assist Jasmine who seemed liveless already, she had gone through different ordeals, from being raped to being tortured all because of some little mafia deal. She was in the middle of the men. She raised her eyes that were heavy and tired. Her back was arched and curved. She didn't know how to react or what to do. Her body had marks and stretches, the torture all ended the night before but they still hurt."Dress her up nicely, she has somewhere to be and don't touch or take care of her wounds." Joe ordered. Jasmine raised her head and looked at Joe, her breathing was paced and she was naked still. She took one step after the other as she went on being assisted by two ladies.They wore her dress, she squinted and moved and made noises but she was too weak to sound or to even talk. They gave a free gown, so it wouldn't hurt her. They all read her and had pity looks. They shook their heads and they were still gent

    Axel. Two days after."You are already leaving? I thought you said you would leave by Friday, today is still Wednesday, why the rush?" Wesley who was unprepared and unready for Axel and his ways of disappearing. He rolled his eyes and folded his hands."You aren't my wife, you are my second in command and I don't like popping in and living and you know that!" Axel added as he adjusted his shirt and looked at his watch."Yes, but you are my concern, I know you can trust me with the hotels and the clubs and the bakeries and all that but the goons and the fights, I can only fight in my demon mode. But this is huge!" Wesley explained in detail but Axel did nothing but laugh hysterically."You have done this before so what's the problem?" Axel found it rather funny and unexpected. Wesley isn't like this, he is never like this but for some reason he wants to be like that. Axel, who was in his office, sat down and looked at him. His files were packed and some clothes."It's quite differen

    Jasmine. The following morning. "Hi, it's so nice to meet you." 'Is that okay to say to him?' It had been a long while since she went on a date, an official one. It was time that she moved on from Axel, Her fiancée and everything else that was left. 'A new beginning, I need that. I should maybe cut my hair and dye it white. You know it would be a good thing.' She tried to convince herself as she tried on different gowns that she wore. From the pink polka dots gown that stayed in her wardrobe for ages, to the brown gown that seemed to be outdated. A pile of clothes that she checked and rated all stood there like a mountain. 'This is hard' She said internally, as she sighed and held the clothes up. "Why is it hard?" She asked herself again this time Jasmine voiced out. She paced over and over, with different thoughts, she was excited to her guts, she wanted a new thing and it landed right in front of her. What more could she ask for? She rolled her eyes and threw herself on t

    Jasmine. Axel had left after they had a steamy goodbye session, Jasmine was left alone with her thoughts and she was by herself. She opened her eyes and rolled them, she squinted. She had no idea how long she had slept for or how long he had been there. No idea of the next thing to do. Naked on her bed, she rubbed her legs and shook her head, Jasmine yawned as though she had ran miles and miles.She was in her bed, wrapped up. She remembered how steamy the session was and how she loved it. He went on and on and she couldn't take enough of it. Jasmine may have pushed him away but a side of her wanted him still He took her to the shower and ran a bath for her, it was so relieving for her. She loved it, she barely remembered but it was something. 'It was the last huh?' She asked as she tucked her hair and sighed. "Why is that?" She suddenly felt empty after all that she had done and been through. "Even him, he has left me with no one!" She added as she itched her hair hard. She seemed

    Axel. "Ignore it, we will talk about it when I am sober but for now let me dwell in whatever thought that this is. Okay?" She added as she nodded."Are you sure?" He asked her with his eyes, he tried to see her thoughts which he did. "Yes, I am sure." She said with a smile as she nodded, a fake smile was on her face too and he saw her. "Okay, hug me then" He told her as he stood up, he held her hands still, he didn't take it off. "Okay, no problem!" She replied as she pulled him closer and hugged him tightly.'I want more than this' He thought to himself as he rubbed her soft back, he loved how soft the singlet was and how it felt. She raised her head and looked at him. "It wouldn't be a bad thing to taste you right now. Or would it?" She asked Axel as she touched his elbows, she reached up to his hair. "Do you want a spicy time?" He asked her for something that he wanted regardless. "Why not?" She replied in calm down as she trailed her hands on his chest. A brown long sleeve
