"Sir, you have a visitor. She says it's urgent," Taehyung's assistant says at the doorway to his office.

Taehyung sighs, rubbing his temples. "Did she give her name?"

"Lucy, sir," she says quietly.

He groans in annoyance. "Let her in, Raven."

"It's Lisa, Mr. Kim," she reminds him.

"Let her in," he repeats impatiently.

Lucy walks into his office, wearing an outfit not appropriate for his building.

"You look ridiculous," he rolls his eyes, trying not to stare.

She smirks. "Liar."

"Why are you here, Lucy? I'm obviously busy. You had your chance to explain everything yesterday but you half-assed it and then left."

She walks forward and plants herself in one of the chairs situated in front of his desk. "I can't just tell you everything at once. That's not much fun."

"Go bother someone else. I'm busy."

She leans forward, her elbows resting on the edge of his desk and her hands tucked under her chin. "I'm bored. Play with me."

Taehyung glares at her. "Play with you?"

"Wow, I thought your sin was Greed, not Lust. Calm down. I meant it non-sexually," she laughs.

"Lucy, I am the CEO of a very large and very successful company. Do I look like I am the type of man to play?"

She huffs in annoyance. "You're boring."

"I'm busy," he says, eyes not leaving his computer.

"You know, I'm very powerful. I can make you do as I say," she warns playfully.

"Apparently, I'm powerful too. Shall we test out my hidden almighty powers on you?" he raises his eyebrow, allowing himself to glance at her for a moment.

She really looks sexy. The Greed in him is desperate to make her his.

"Such a naughty mind, Kim Taehyung," she winks.

"You can read my mind?" he asks uneasily, shifting in his seat.

She shrugs. "More or less. Your seal on my body connects our minds. I can feel what emotions you are feeling more than your exact thoughts, unless you open your mind to me. Then I can hear everything."

"Creepy," he scowls.

"You can do the exact same to me, you know," she smiles knowingly.

"How?" he asks, focusing his attention more towards her.

"I thought you were busy, Greed," she grins wickedly.

"And I thought you were going to call us by our human names," I counter.

She laughs. "All of these different names are so confusing. I'll call you whatever I call you. Sometimes Taehyung, sometimes Greed... maybe I'll call you Tae."

"Don't call me Tae," he warns.

"Play a game with me and I won't," she says, smirk plastered on her face.

"You're a child," he rolls his eyes and focuses back on his work.

"That's rude, Tae," she pouts, moving her hair away from her shoulders.

"Don't call me that," he says, becoming irritated.

"Play with me," she shrugs.

"Damn it, no," he says, running his hand through his hair.

"Fine then, Tae."

"I swear—"

"Just answer me one question and then I'll go. Okay?" she compromises.

Taehyung sighs. "Only if I can ask you a question afterwards."

"Deal," she grins.

He turns his gaze back to her, folding his hands in front of him on his desk, waiting for her question.

"Should I change my hair color?" she asks.

"Wait, what?"

"My hair. I want to change the color. Do you think it's a good idea?"

"That's your question?" he asks, raising his eyebrows.

"I think I want it to be blonde. Icy blonde. Icy like my cold heart," she grins before laughing at her own joke.

"You really are a damn child," he says, rolling his eyes.

She pouts, crossing her arms across her chest. "Answer me."

"Fine. Blonde would look... good."

"Really? Great," she grins and runs her hands through her hair. Immediately, the burgundy locks bleed into a white blonde. "How does it look?"

"Lucy!" Taehyung yells through gritted teeth. "You can't do demon shit around the humans."

"Oh please. Humans are not my concern," she waves her hand dismissively, her shiny ice blonde hair glittering in the sunlight from the window behind him.

He sighs deeply. "It does look good. Okay? Happy now?"

"Sweet boy," she gushes, reaching across his desk to pinch his cheeks.

Taehyung gently swats her hands away. "Now, it's my turn to ask a question."

"Go for it."

"Why are you helping us?"

She stands up wordlessly and starts walking to the door, playing with her hair as she walks.

"Hey! You have to answer me!" he demands, standing up from his office chair.

"I said you could ask me a question. I never said I would answer it," she grins evilly.

"That's cheating!" he frowns.

"What else do you expect from a demon, Tae?" she winks.

And then she disappears into thin air, leaving him alone in his office.

"Damn you, Lucy..."
