The Deal Novels & Stories

Perhaps within the darkness, there was a loophole, a weakness they could exploit. The figure laughed, a sound that echoed through the chamber. "A brave choice," it rasped. "But remember, once you make a deal with darkness, the price is never truly paid in full." The figure extended a skeletal hand, its long, black fingers twitching in anticipation. Evie and Liam stood frozen, the weight of the decision pressing down on them. The fate of Aethel hung in the balance, and with a single touch, they would either seal its doom or bind themselves to an unknown darkness.

"Great. Make yourself at home." "You know what I want, Aria." He spoke in a deep voice with his smouldering gaze fixed on me that for a second I thought he meant something else. I swallowed hard and took a step back just to maintain a safe distance between us. I was hard to think when he was close to me. The Deal. He was talking about the deal. Pull yourself together! "It still doesn't make sense. Don't you have money to pay anyone or buy anyone to make it look real?"

“That’s not enough. I don’t think it can’t cover all that money no matter how overpriced.” “I own this place amongst many others.” He spat. “If only you’d let me finish.” He rolled his eyes. “Very well then.” Ace nodded and Bruno explained the terms of it all and how it works to him. “Great. You can send the details and legal contract to my email. I’ll have my attorney skim through it and I’ll get back to you.” He said to Bruno. “You seem really experienced Mr Ace.” “I am, this isn’t my first rodeo with questionable businesses and partners.” He picked up a cigar from the cigar boy and it was lit for him.

Ethan asked hopefully. "Deal."

Malfred muttered, he already bought Delilah's idea. "So do we have a deal ?"

"One month, let’s play boyfriends as I will do my best to flirt and prove to you that you cannot stay away and help yourself, but fall in love with me.” Fair deal as he is confident that he will win as his path should only be to the safe zone of just how he built his life. Sky nods as he accepts. “DEAL!” To the run of things and the new deal that’s brewing, will you find out who will lose? "I’m yours no refund." ----- Anonymous -----

Mom, I want to say something please. 'What is that', she said. I want us to have an Accord. What!, What do you mean? Oh!, Am sorry, that is not what I wanted to say ma. I was about to say a DEAL. It is a deal mom, you will give me a certain deadline and I'll promise to give you an evidence before that day, failure to do so, you will take me to the hospital. She moved forward and think about her son making a deal with her.

I place my bag on the table and sigh. “Morning, ladies.” Axel says, adjusting his shirt, looking incredibly handsome. It’s hard to imagine that him- the guy in high school with shaggy brown hair and a lanky frame is the same guy now with a broad shoulder, and a smile with dimples that can melt even the coldest person’s heart. “We have another pitch to present; unfortunately, we couldn’t get Devon’s family to purchase our clothes, our next family is the Duncans.” Axel says, standing up.

I obeyed, my heart racing. He bent his head forward and stared at me. "I won't waste your time. I have a proposal for you." My brows furrowed. "A proposal?" “A marriage contract, " he said, like it was the most usual thing in the world. "One year. After that, it ends." I stared at him, stunned. "You can't be serious." "I'm very serious." His gaze didn't falter. "This agreement will be mutually useful." I shook my head. "I can't agree to that, I barely even know you."

"I want to set things straight, but how?" "I can help you." A small voice says in my head. "If you make a deal with me then I can give you what you dreamed of and more." I turned around but I found no one, and could only hear its voice. "Who are you?" "My clients call me Delets. I am a deal maker. I can grant you any wish, but it doesn't mean it's for free." Whoever this being, one thing was certain, and that was, that he could not be trusted.
