"Maybe we need to change some rules here." I wrapped my hand around Jungkook's throat before throwing him to the wall. I look at the mirror reflection and noticed that my eyes are now fully black and the black veins covered half of my face. "Should I dismiss you as the high priest? I mean what is the point of leading the cult when you don't even bother to listen to the devil himself." I felt the anger inside me building up and no one dare to say a word. I close my eyes and calm myself down to avoid hurting him any further. "Give me some time to rearrange the rules shall we. As of now, I will cease all the deals that all of you have made with your clients. Tell them the devil is a little busy with the handover." With that I leave the mansion.

Haneul POV
After so long, I am finally back at the office to settle my resignation with the HR department. "Are you sure about this, Haneul? You're one of our best detective. We can simply ignore this resignation and give you office duty until you're fully ready to be back in action." This is like the tenth time the HR tries to convince me to stay. Right before I want to answer her, somehow suddenly I had the thought of continue to work. What if I break up with Taehyung one day? I can't be searching for another job and start everything once again. Resigning just because I want to be with Taehyung who happens to be the devil. Is that even a wise move? What if he leaves and go to hell instead?

"You know what, I think I'll accept your offer. I'll stay and do office work until I'm ready." I said and I swear the HR looks surprise by my sudden decision. "A-are you sure?" She asked and I give her a firm yes. She then tear off my resignation letter and smiles widely. "Great. I'll let the higher authority know. They will be happy to hear this. You're their precious gem." Sure thing. Keep the praising coming in. I got up and leave the HR office after things being settled. Just when I was about to leave, I heard Do Kyung calling my name. "Haneul, you're back!" He exclaimed. "Well I am." I said with a slight smile. No I am not happy with the decision I made but I have to keep on living like a normal human even though I'm dating a devil. Fuck! That doesn't sound normal at all. Dating a devil. An actual devil that has wings.

"Look as much as I want to catch up with you, I really have to go." I said before putting on my shade and leave. Yes, I am avoiding any further questions from Do Kyung. I head over to my motorcycle and put on my full face black helmet before getting on it. I noticed from the mirror that Do Kyung is still looking. I immediately ride off to get him out of my sight. The bike slowly comes to a halt when the orange light appear on the traffic light before it turns red. While waiting, my smartwatch alert me with incoming new message. It is from Yoongi. I frowned as I read the text. Taehyung had revealed himself to the rest and had a fight with Jungkook earlier this morning. What the actual fuck! Now what? What am I suppose to do with this information? Go to Jungkook's place and be a nosey ass before getting killed or just go home and pretend I don't know shit.

I opt the second choice. I ride back to Taehyung's penthouse. When I'm about to park my bike, I saw one of his car that was not there earlier is now being parked in the VIP lot. Oh he's back. I get off from my bike and take off my helmet. When I turned around, I came face to face with the devil himself. "For fuck sake..." my heart almost dropped out and I was so damn close to slap him. "Lets have lunch together." He said without even bothering to apologize after giving me that heart attack. He walk to the lift lobby holding a huge paper bag. I pull out my motorcycle keys and follow Taehyung from behind. I can tell he is upset probably because of what Yoongi told me.

"What did you get for lunch?" I asked trying to engage a conversation. "Bibimbap and jjangmyeon. You can choose whichever you want." He said as he look at me without even a smile. He is clenching his jawline and his eyes says it all. Anger and hatred. I do not dare to say another word. I wrapped my hand around his arm but he choose to hold my hand instead. Ok this is a good sign. He is not mad at me. We enter the elevator and we both could only remain silent. As soon we arrived back at the penthouse, I helped him to set up the lunch he bought for us. "Which one do you want?" He asked and I decided to go for bibimbap. I sat opposite of him and begin to mix up the rice, vegetables and beef. I take a big scoop and begin to enjoy my lunch.

"How did the resignation went?" He asked suddenly. I had to swallow down my food first before looking up at him. "I'm not going to resign." Oh his facial expression falls again. "I kinda need to work no matter what plus trust me, it will just be an office work. No solving criminals is involved." I said and decided not to point out the actual reason. He said nothing and continue to play around with the food instead of eating it. "Taehyung.. Yoongi told me about what happened today." He begin to eat the black bean noodle and ignore me. "I never hurt any of them before, Haneul. Never. And today when Jungkook punched me, I let him to do so. You want to know why?" Taehyung asked and I just nod once. "Cause he was right. I broke the promises I made. I broke it to protect you." I stop eating. Shit this might turn bad.

Taehyung and Jungkook fought because of me. I'm the reason. "I'll fix this, Taehyung. Let me talk to Jungkook." I said and he smirked. "Don't bother. Right now he has to fix his own sin from the past. You just focus on yourself and us. Let me handle Jungkook." He said before we both continue to eat. After lunch, we decided to spend time playing his PS5. Of course he is good at it. He told me he always play it at the mansion with Jimin. Why does it feel like me being part of his life kinda stop him from having fun. "Are you going to The Royals tonight?" I asked while he is busy focusing on the game. "Well yes. Why? Do you want to tag along?" He asked. "No. I want to stay home or probably hit the gym." I said before I continue to play the game.

"How are you even a detective when you can't even shoot properly?!" Taehyung said when I lost the Call of Duty game. "Detective and military are two different people if you must know." I said before I place the controller down. "Giving up already?" He turned to look at me and smirk. "No. Just letting the devil do his thing. Being arrogant as fuck." I said before I stretched my arms and got up from the couch. Taehyung pulled me down on his lap and wrapped his hand around my throat. "I'm arrogant huh?" He asked and I raised my brow, agreeing to his question. "Mhmm. So arrogant from the moment I met you." I said before he leaned closer and hold my hips firmly in his grip. "Taehyung.." I whispered his name near his lips. He hummed in respond. "I'm curious and thought of wanting to try something." He leaned back a bit to gaze at me. "What is it, princess?" He asked while his fingers brushing my hair.

"Fuck me while you're in your devil form."
