The more time I spent with the Devil, the more I sinned. His fatal spell had cast over me without an exception, and it was then that I knew the Devil's heart was not completely bitter. - "Stop." An unbearable sob wracked through my body at the loathsome scene laid before my eyes. His response was a deep chuckle, followed by a hiccup that proved he was undoubtedly drunk. "Stop what? Who I've become? All the unruly mess I've made?" He slurred, crouching down next to the man he slaughtered. "Oh, darling. Those actions are a little late to be undone." - How could such a beautiful human being be such an arsehole? That was one of the many questions that popped into Maddie's mind when she saw the difference between the man she helped in the alley, and the man who she witnessed had killed 'innocents'.

[This story is in English. Don't get scared off with Italian words] "Sono stato fregato dal diavolo troppe volte per credere negli angeli." His husky voice nearly made me tumble down due to how weak I was feeling. My legs were wobbly and at any given moment I felt as though I would collapse. The fact that my heart was beating furiously against my chest didn't help either. "W-what?" I questioned as he neared me, causing a chain reaction of me backing up in order to not be facing him. He was all too much for me to handle and never have I ever been so attracted to someone like him. "Tigrotta...I've been fucked over by the devil too many times to believe in angels." ***** Notorious was exactly what he was. He was so bad and he knew how to do it so well; so graceful and charming. His long strides, his alluring persona, and nearly everything about him had me attracted instantly. Usually I don't go looking for trouble, instead trouble seems to have its way in finding me. I suppose I'm just a good girl with bad habits; and as they say: Bad boys always do it better.
