My thoughts wondered on that asshole's words.
Demon scent on my secretary?
Speaking of my devil, he's been sleeping a lot on my couch for the past few days. Which was unusual with his loud mouth since I brought him home.
"Kit.."
His eyes flashed open.. Whenever I call, wherever he is, his eyes seemed to automatically open the first time I utter his name.
I find it convenient but.. Is this how it really works?
"Babe.. Why are you so fond of interrupting my beauty sleep?"
"Let me remind you, you sleep since we came in the office and now we're about to go home. You're asleep for more than nine hours."
I want to keep my stoic demeanor not until I noticed how his face became unusually disturbed upon knowing..
"Is there anything I should worry about?"
He darted his eyes to me with my question..
"My body.. Feel weird.."
"What do you mean?"
He avoided my eyes for a moment, and stared back..
"Maybe it's nothing. I'll go ahead to your car. I'll wait there."
And in a glimpse, he shifted into black thin air..
That bitch escaped, again. I've been asking him about this certain changes.. But he's always in a daze without giving me a proper answer.
Though, I also consider the possibility that I'm becoming softer to him than I supposed to be.
I should not care in the first place as long as he does his job. That's it. That should be enough.
But I've been thinking for some time already of removing him from his cage at night and replaced it with whatever he wanted.
Maybe it can help to lessen his sleepiness at day.. or maybe not..
I can't help but take a deep sigh.. Why is the thing who should be helping me to lessen my job causes me stress now?!
"Sir? Is everything all right?"
My secretary asked..
Kit might have mentioned about the possibility of my secretary having a demon but, who knows if he's an enemy.
"What can you say about demons?"
"Demons? About that.."
I sensed how he quivered of my question..
"What?"
"I think they're scary and frightful. They can do so many things which is beyond normal humans can do so.. I don't think, we should concern ourselves about them.."
Not concern?
"Have you seen a demon except Kit?"
"Y-Yes.."
"Is that demon, acts like my demon?"
He looked deeply into my eyes which he rarely does.
"No.. It's not like your demon."
"What can you say about Kit then?"
"Kit? Uhm.. Kit is.."
"Answer me honestly."
"Sir.. I apologize first but if I'll be asked to answer honestly then I can say, Kit is.. a-arousing.."
"Arousing?"
"Y-Yes Sir.. I saw different kinds of demon, they usually have a specific common thing but your demon doesn't have any.. so, maybe, he's quite interesting?"
"What do you mean?"
"Sir, some has features that might not be exactly the same, but exist to most of them. It varies since some might have everything, some might have less, some might look almost the same with the others, or totally different but still, it's on the same kind."
"Give me an example."
"A horn. Some doesn't have, but if not a horn, they have a tail, canines, or wings.. If not one of those additional feature, they have a skin like amphibians or reptiles.. But if there's one things all demons has without considerations, that would be their eyes."
I remember Kit's first encounter, he has tough looking skin that seemed more like tiny scales.. and if I'll think about my secretary's description, he's right.. my devil doesn't have any of them..
And if I were to point out.. Kit actually looks more like, a Human.
"Sir.. Can you remember the color of Kit's eyes when it glows?"
Gray.
I can remember clearly that chilling light from his eyes.
But.. I got suspicious in this kind of question from him. I should be the one doing the asking, and not the one answering, especially about Kit.
"What's the color I should be expecting?"
I noticed he kinda back off upon hearing my hostility.
"R-Red Sir.."
Red?
Gaston's eyes were red.
"Kit's eyes were red too.. Before I forgot, I want you to clear my schedule tomorrow and no one is allowed to visit or contact me. Understand?"
His face was immediately flooded with surprise and confusion.
"Understand?"
I repeated impatiently..
"Y-Yes Sir.. I understand.."
Shit!
Something is not right.
