I was home alone because Saul had to go outing with the boys so I was left back in our house not in devil's dell. To kill my boredom, I decided to visit Clara. Her home was near the church I go to so I decided to go see my pastor. I was passing the church when I saw him waving to me. I walked fast towards him.
              "Long time pastor" , I said as I approached him near the entrance to the church.
             " Where have you been lately my daughter?", I was no longer seeing you in church as I always did? . Come inside I want to show you something".
              " Inside the church" , I said stammering because I wasn't sure if it was a good thing to do.
             "Ella are you fine? , I just want to show you about the Bible and the demons you were interested in knowing, I researched in the Bible about them" , he said leading me inside.
He insisted on me coming inside so I accepted,but as soon as I started walking in the church, I felt something strangling me in my throat, I wasn't breathing at all.
               " Are you fine daughter", said my pastor coming closer to me.
I don't know after what happened to me or my pastor when he started praying for me. It was like I fainted or something like that.

When I woke up, I found Saul and his friends all over me and when I faced the other side, I saw my pastor on the ground floor. Was he dead?, did I do that?, I was confused and helpless . Did I murder my pastor, am a murderer? ".
             " Saul, did I do that, tell me Saul? ", I said shivering and crying b he was all covered with scratches on his face and body.
            " Ella, calm down, I will tell you everything but let us first get rid of the body before someone else can see this" , Saul shouted facing to his friends, 
                  "Let's burn this body at once and leave no evidence and if you think someone else saw what happened, kill that person right away, he continued.
I went back home lifelessly. I was a murderer something I thought I was never going to commit in my life but here I was, moreover I murdered my own pastor. I slept feeling weak, hopeless. I was a princess but I murdered someone, was that what princess did behind people's backs . What happened to me in church?. When I woke up, I found Saul sitting looking at me.
                "Saul, what happened today, I want answers now?", I said sitting up and shouting like I got out of a bad dream.
                "Ella, your a devil's dell's little princess and you entered a place you were not supposed to be", he said taking it slowly on me.
                " And what's that to mean, to kill someone. At least I would run out of the church but not killing",
                  "Ella, just promise me you won't go there anymore that's if you don't want to kill someone else, said holding my chin.
I just sat looking at the window still thinking of my crime. I knew people would realize that he is missing and they would start suspecting. Clara, I wanted to go see Clara but should I tell her of what I did or not. I should tell her because I now trust her so much, she's proven that she is a good sister and friend.
                "Saul am going to Clara's home, I want to talk to her", I said looking at him.
                "No you won't, I will bring her. You need to rest. You did a crime, a big one" , he said smiling. I loved his lips when he smiled.
              " Are you teasing me now Saul" , I threw the pillow at him.
                "Just smile and I will stop. I love that smile," he leaving.
He went to get Clara. I waited for hours, it felt like forever. I looked at myself in the mirror, what did I become now. I was still looking at myself when Saul and Clara entered the house.
               " Ella are you fine? , Saul told me what happened to you today", Clara said as she hugged me.
                " I still can't believe what I did" , I finally said.
               " I too was shocked to hear that but everything will be fine" , Clara hugged me again.
She stayed for some hours and then she said she had to go back home before her dad finds out she came home late. So it was me and Saul again, alone.
 
We first sat on the bed non of us saying a word just lost in our thoughts. Then Saul approached me slowly and grabbed my face looking at my eyes. I looked at his eyes with pleasure, I truly loved him and he too loved me, I thought to myself.
               " Ella, I don't want you to be sad, I don't want to think that am behind your sadness, that am not doing what a husband does".
                "Saul, you're the perfect person, the perfect husband and I love you no matter what. It's just about the incident that am not forgetting" .
                 Hsssh, we don't want to talk about it now, Ella, let's be like husband and wife during a honeymoon for this night at least.
He kissed me and looked again at my eyes. I want you, Ella, he finally said. He kissed me again not letting go of my lips, I wasn't breathing. I tried to free myself from his lips but all in vain.
               "Saul your hurting me a lot please" , I was already crying.
                "Ella, sorry, I couldn't control myself at all, I have never tasted you that much so I was excited, he said feeling depressed. Let as just rest ",
                "You can't just kiss someone and tell them to go and sleep, you finish what you started" , I said kissing him slowly. I never wanted him to feel bad and a murder wasn't going to make me feel happy.
He hugged me tight and whispered in my ear, your gonna regret what you just said. He bit my ear.
