The Devil's Playground

Chapter 2

D2) I got woken up by a knock on the door and then I got pulled out of bed by a bunch of maids. "What the hell?" I said as they dragged me into the bathroom. They started taking off my clothes and I tried stopping them and everything I said to them they didn't understand I guess because they only spoke French or some kind of other language. They put me in the bathtub and every time I tried to get out they would stop me. The only time they stopped was when a deep voice said something in their language. I saw it was Reese was the one who said that. I blushed and covered myself. Well this is embarrassing. He grabbed a towel and handed it to me. I grabbed it and wrapped it around myself as he looked away to talk to the maids. The maids left as I stepped out of the bathtub, still with the blush on my face. "You alright?" Reese asked me. I nodded and said, "Yeah. Thank you, by the way." "My dad probably told them to start treating you like you're one of his children so that's why they did it. I told them that you'll get ready on your own though. Get ready for breakfast though. You'll be meeting my brothers and sisters today." He told me as he went to his room. Well since I already took a bath, even though it was by force, I might as well get dressed. I went to my room and quickly got dressed. When I finished, I went to Reese's room and we both started going to the dining room. I fanned myself with my hand as I said, "Why is it so hot in here? I noticed it last night but I just thought it was because it was cold outside." "Well when you've lived in hell most of your life, you get used to the heat. Just start wearing lighter clothing so you don't end up passing out." He told me. I nodded and that's when we reached two big doors. Reese opened the doors and we both walked in. I couldn't say that I wasn't nervous, I mean I'm about to have breakfast with a bunch of demons. I saw Reese's dad in there along with 5 guys and a girl, all about around my age. "Ah, there's the new couple. How did you sleep Jasmine? I hope your room is to your liking." Reese's dad told me. I just put on a small smile and said, "Everything was fine." "That's good. Well let me introduce you to Reese's siblings." He said. He stood behind the first guy and said, "This is Lucas, he is the second eldest," Lucas smirked at me and he looked me over which didn't give me a good feeling, Reese's dad moved on to the next guy, "the third eldest is Greg." This boy wore really expensive looking clothing and jewelry, he didn't bother to look at me. "After Greg, is Peter." Satan told me and let's just say Peter looked very cocky and full of himself. "Then this is Selena, she's daddy's little girl." Satan said with a smile. Selena was slouching in her chair and she lazily smiled up at me. I smiled back at her then Satan said, "My second youngest is Glenn." Glenn ate some food and didn't even look at me. "And lastly, my youngest son, Warren." Satan said and Warren just glared up at me. "I didn't properly tell you my name yesterday but you may call me Lucifer." Satan told me. As I took in the appearances of everyone, a laugh slipped out of my mouth as I realized something. "What the hell are you laughing at?" Warren asked me angrily with a glare. "Just at the irony. The Devil's children all resemble the seven deadly sins. Lucas is obviously lust, Greg is greed, Peter is pride, Selena is sloth, Glenn is gluttony, and Warren is wrath. Which means Reese is envy." I said with a chuckle. Lucifer walked over to me and held both of my hands as he said, "Ah, you are a sharp one. You are completely right, Jasmine. My children all resemble one of the seven deadly sins. They can be a handful at times though." I just smiled awkwardly up at him and then we all sat down for breakfast. Breakfast went by quickly with just Lucifer and a few of the sons asking me questions, well except Lucas who just tried to flirt with me. When breakfast finished, Reese and I went back upstairs. I changed into some jean shorts and a tank top since during breakfast I felt like I was about to past out from the heat. I went into Reese's room and he was just laying on his bed. His room was almost like mine except it had more personal things like posters on the wall and music and trophies and such. I looked around his room as I said, "Your family is pretty interesting." "Well to me they are just a pain in the ass." He said to me, he then sat up and said, "Can you stay away from Lucas and Greg?" "Why?" I asked him and looked at him, he looked almost jealous for some reason. "Because knowing Lucas he's going to try to do sexual stuff to you and Greg wants things that others have that he doesn't own, so he's going to try to take you away from me. I don't like the way they looked at you since your my fiancée." I walked over to him and grabbed his hand, "I'll try my best to avoid them and I won't talk to them. I'm only human though so I don't know how I can avoid demons but I'll try to avoid them. I didn't really like them anyways so you don't need to feel jealous. Your dad obviously picked me to marry you." I said to him with a smile. "I'll try not to be jealous, but that's kinda hard when you are envy." He said to me with a chuckle. I giggled too and said, "So what do demons like to do for fun?" He thought for a moment and said, "Well except for killing humans, I'm guessing the same stuff humans like to do." "If demons like to kill humans, then why am I here?" I asked him. "Well my dad thought since humans get tempted by the seven deadly sins, that maybe humans could calm down the sin each of my siblings resemble. He also thought it was another way to get back at the man upstairs indirectly, by changing His creations into demons." Reese told me. "So I'm basically like an experiment to see if it'd work?" I asked him. "Basically, yeah. If it doesn't end up working then you get stuck as a demon married to a envious husband." He told me with a chuckle. "Well do you feel any different?" I asked him. He thought for a moment and said, "Well I've stopped feeling jealous of things in general, but if its like any guy that flirts with you or looks at you, I start getting jealous. Even thinking about it makes me feel jealous." "Well at least it's starting to work. I mean, I know how being jealous can make someone feel but feeling it all the time about everything must've been really hard." I said to him. I really did feel sorry for him, like I couldn't really imagine being jealous over little things all the time. He smiled at me and held my hand. "Come on, let me show you around." He said to me as he held my hand and pulled me out of his room.
