my phone got lost and I had to look for it so I couldn't really type for the whole week but I found it now!! how are you all doing? I hope you're well. Anyway, here's chapter 3

                                 Chapter 3

The man gave a chilling smile

"it seems like you have a wish for death,"

a shiver ran down my spine. I'm not one to be intimidated by people, but this guy is just too... I don't know.
I mustered all my courage to look into his eyes

"Well duh"

"I dont like you"

"I dont like you either"

he raised a brow at me

"You do know that this doesn't come freely. There's always a condition... or a price"

"Uhh yeah, but I'm ready to do anything,"

" Anything?"

"Yep!"

he stared at me for 5 seconds and then snapped his fingers at the grim reaper

" Ryan, give me the paper."

"What paper?"

"The one for the contracts, what else "

"Oh ok,"

the grim reaper-Ryan- removed a folder from his bag and  gave it to 'death'
he placed the folder in front of me and gave me a sharp pin

"all you have to do is prick your thumb and then stamp it on the paper, then I'll be assured that you are truly going to keep your word and fulfill the deal, but if you don't fulfill your end of the deal there would be... consequences. so what do you say"

I looked down at the paper and my thumb, and with all the courage in me, I pricked  it and stamped it on the paper. I stared at the fresh blood on the sheet
suddenly, a feeling of dread filled me. what if I regret doing this later on, I looked at Ryan, and we were both saying the same things in our mind
'there's no going back now'

I stared at Death

"So what's the deal?" he smiled.

"You become my helper and assistant for a total of 180 days or 6 months. Not a day more, not a day less. "

I raised my brow in surprise

"That's it? "

He looked slightly confused

"Yes, why?"

"Oh, nothing! Just I was expecting something a bit more serious, like to become your personal slave or something"

He looked offended and raised a brow at me

"I'm sorry if I appear intimidating, but I'm still a person, not a monster. Besides, I have people who are more befitting for the job than you are. Now, if you would excuse me, "

He turned around and was about to snap his finger when he glanced back at Ryan

"Before I forget, take her to the house and make sure she settles in, I have some business to attend to,"

And with that, he vanished. I blinked twice and ran my palm over my  face, I had seen way too many things today to be shocked by this. Ryan stretched his arm towards me

"Take it,"

"Huh."

"Take my hand,"

I smiled at him

"I'm sorry, Ryan, you're cute and all, but you're not really my type."

Ryan's eyebrows shot up

"What! No! I barely know you. I asked you to take my hand so I can teleport you to the house. "

"Oh, that makes more sense."

Ryan rolled his eyes at me and teleported. A rack of pain shot through my body, and I fell on the ground hacking, I looked up at a now smirking Ryan and glared at him

"A heads up would have been appreciated,"I snapped at him.
His smirk widened

"No can do darling, you've got to be ready for anything."

I glared harder, I couldn't tell whether he was truly advicing me or mocking me.
Damn that British accent.
I was about to retaliate when someone cleared their throat. I looked back, still on the ground. It was a man, Asian, I thought to myself, in us mid twenties, but I could be wrong, things aren't always what they seem.

"Hey Kim! How you doing"

"Don't talk to me,"

"Sorry. "

" Who's she?"

"Boss's new helper,caught her on a deal,"

he started at me on the ground

"Sure, she's very charming too,"

I scrambled up and smiled

"Hi, I'm Nikaya, and I'm deaths new helper,"

" And so I've heard, pleased to meet you Nikaya, the names Kim Sangwoo, I'm deaths personal assistant and his first and previously only helper"

I smiled

"Then you've been here a while."

"Perhaps"

And with that, he walked away

"Rude," I muttered
"I've seen worse. Come on now, let me take you to your room. "

And it was only at that moment I noticed the huge house before me! Heck, it wasn't even a house it was a mansion

"Is this a hotel?" I asked Ryan
"Haha, no. It's where we are all staying and where you'll be staying until your time is up. "

I gulped, well, here we are

I stared at the house, just how rich is this guy? I followed Ryan into the 'house' and then to my room, which was awfully bland, even for me.
pale white walls accompanied with a huge cupboard and a canopy bed was all that was in the room
'That'll change soon,' I said to myself

"Does the water flow?" I asked Ryan, but he didn't respond, "Ryan?"

he blinked quickly. "Yeah? what did you say"

"I asked if the water flows."

"Yeah, it does."

I raised a brow at him

"Everything okay?"

"Yeah, I was just talking to Kim. He says boss wants to meet you in the sitting room after you freshen up,"

"You mean living room? "

he stared blankly at me

"You sit there, not live there,"

and with that, he left
