The Devil's Playground

Chapter 3

D3) Reese showed me all around the castle. I saw the kitchen, game room, tv room, theater room, they even had a ballroom. Reese was going to show me his favorite spot of the whole castle. I was following behind him as we went through the halls. I was looking at all the paintings on the walls and I didn't notice I wasn't following Reese anymore until it became really quiet. I looked around and I was in a pretty dark hallway. I started walking back to where I think I walked down before but I ended up getting more lost. As I turned a corner, I felt someone grab my arm and they pinned me up against the wall. Then I felt a pair of lips on mine. I was shocked, but I started to push the person off of me. I used all my strength to push the person off, which I succeeded in doing and I saw the person who kissed me was Lucas. "What the hell, Lucas? What's your problem?" I shouted at him as I tried to wipe the kiss off of my mouth. He smirked and said, "Well I am lust. When I see something that turns me on, I go after it." "I'm sure anything that moves turns you on." I retorted back at him as I glared at him. He smirked more and just as he was about to go towards me, someone came in and punched Lucas in the face. "Reese." I said as I realized it was him. "Lucas, don't ever touch Jasmine again! She's my fiancée and she's wearing my ring, not yours. If you try anything again, you'll regret." Reese told Lucas, then he grabbed my hand and started pulling me down the hallway. Once we turned into a different hallway out of sight from Lucas, I opened my mouth to say something but Reese turned around held my face and quickly kissed me. I was shocked at first, but I couldn't help to melt into the kiss and kiss him back. His kiss wasn't forceful like Lucas's was, it was more sweet and caring in a way. When he pulled away, he put his forehead against mine and closed his eyes. "Tell me your mine." I heard him whisper to me. It took me a while to process what he said until he repeated it again. "I'm yours." I whispered back to him. I felt my heart race faster as his eyes opened and we stared at each other for what seems like forever. He kissed me one more time then grabbed my hand and took me somewhere. We got to a wooden door and he opened it. When we got through the door, I noticed it led to the top of the castle. As we walked over to the ledge, I gasped at the view. You could see the whole forest that surrounded the castle from up there and in the background you can see the lights from the Eiffel Tower from up there. "I like to come up here to get away from my family." Reese told me as he looked out at the view. "I can see how coming up here can make you forget about all your worries and problems. The view is beautiful up here." I said to him. "Yeah, it is." He said to me. I looked at him when he said that and I blushed when I saw he was looking at me. "Even though we are pretty much being forced to marry each other, I'm glad that I'm marrying you. I do like you, and that's a compliment coming from a demon." He said to me with a smile. I giggled and said, "Well I'm still getting used to the whole 'demons exist thing and I'm marrying one' situation, but I'm glad I'm marrying you too- I'm still trying to wrap my head around the fact I'm actually getting married though." He smiled at what I said and came over to me and held me. Is it weird that I'm starting to fall for my fiancé?
