Signed, Sealed, Delivered, I'm Yours

Chapter 2

Damon Pov

I stared at the soul in front of me before looking at the paper that was handed over to me by my assistant. In the paper, it is written the sins the soul had done. Depending on what type of the sins commited, the punishment will be given out. Once the soul has fulfilled their punishment, they are allowed to leave this place as their sins are considered redeemable. However, some souls are bound to be here. Souls that when they were alive, tortured others, murderers, rapist. You get the idea right. Their souls are stuck here for eternity. Since the place needs this type of soul to feed their energy.

So what is this place and who am I. I am Damon, a demon and I live in hell. I look at the queue, I was almost done for the day handing out punishments to all the soul. I checked my IPhone to see if there were any calls or messages from my best friends. But there was none. 

I just let out a deep sigh. I had 3 close friends, Chuck, Nathaniel and Brad. Nat and Brad had found their mates long time ago. Thus spending time with us lesser and lesser. We only met up during the meetings or occasional gatherings. I missed them a lot but i knew they had their partners. Chuck on the other hand recently found his mate in an angel. I know the irony of that. A demon and an angel. No idea how is it going to work. Me? me? i am yet to find mine. I am 230 years old, roaming around hell for so long yet I have not found a soul mate. 

We demons also have soul mates. Sometimes we find them in other demons, in humans, other mystical creatures and even angels. I am not sure where is my mate but hopefully I will find her sometime soon.  I decided to leave the office to head back home.

I took of my black shirt and changed into a normal green t-shirt. Apparently when you're a demon you wear black all the time. After finding for a fruit to eat in the kitchen, I went back to my room. I went to take my laptop to surf the internet to check any new movies. But before doing so, I checked my calender to see what were the important appointments I had later on today and the following day.

I caught myself staring at the date December 25 which is a forth night from now. I remember this date 18 years ago. I was passing the emergency room at John Hopkins after visiting a friend of mine when I heard a loud scream.

"Help me, help me,doctor please save my baby " screamed a lady.

I was curious as to what was happening thus I teleported into the room and made myself invisible. The doctors and nurses went out to prepare for the operation. Through my sharp hearing, I heard the doctor saying that the baby might not survive and they were going to save only the mother.

I felt pity when I looked at the mom. She was a beautiful maiden not more than 19 years of age. I decided to help even though its against the rules. I appeared in front of her.

"Do you want me to help you  save the baby", I asked her softly.

She looked at me. Normally in that situation any lady would scream since I suddenly had materialize in front of her. But not this lady. I was not sure why.

With tears flowing down her eyes, she said" do you think you can save her. please please, I will do anything for you".

I said, "okay, i will. but you owe me. I will be back when the time comes".

And I saved the child.It was a beautiful baby girl with hazel eyes.She looked just like her mother maybe even prettier. I gave the baby to the mother and left.

Well I got punished for inter fearing with fate and helping a human. I was stuck in hell for 18 years and not allowed to visit earth. I looked at the calender and remembered my punishment was coming to and end. I was free to visit earth again. I thought to myself maybe I will visit the maiden's baby see how is she doing. Never had i expected that my life was about to change 180 degrees.
