The Devil's Smile

Chapter 18

There were no cleaning carts conveniently waiting for me so I had to barge through the storage room door rip a poor defenseless cart free and push it at super dweller speed towards the dorms 1 to 5.

The hallway was empty and I had this amazing feeling insightful stop all warmed and life. I was totally killing it at being a dweller slave this day.

killing it!

When I was almost at the end doorway 5 sprung open and a huge body emerged. With an audible shriek I skidded to a stop and hit the deck hiding behind my car I was still a few feet away from their rooms. If they didn't look this way they hopefully wouldn't notice a rogue cart just sitting in the hall all on its way.

I heard voices and keeping my breathing as shallow as possible I peered through the small gap in the towel area on the cart. Lots of golden nest muscles and arrogance came into sight. I couldn't quite tell but judging from the glow all 5 cursor brothers were leaving.

“We need to make sure he knows that we are done with this bullshit. when we get back I'm going to rip his ungodly head off.”

Dron’s voice was distinct a low ground which tingled down my spine and settled somewhere low with my body. I was so not okay with this.

We need to figure out how to end this vanishment. That was Yep his velvety persuasive tone was enough to almost have me up and crawling towards him he was dangerous. Affecting me way more than was safe. He continued. I almost lost control of them the previous day and it starting earlier than usual this time don't stop

They were moving away now I could still hear them but it was getting softer shifting my body forward a little like decided to take a risk and see what was happening. Just as I got my head around the edge of the card blood red and occurred here came interview.

“Well well well. What do we have here?” Cronas reached out and wrapped his arms around me and even though he wasn't huge as his strength gifted to when he was still die size. He lifted me with ease and I flinched bracing for the pain.

You weren't gifted because been unless you were a Demi God who took pleasure in his.

“I am not going to hurt you rocks,” he said whispering close to my ear. My eyes shuttered briefly as I fought for composer. I was potentially a click away from begging for my life which was pretty uncool considering my life hasn't been outwardly threatened. Yet. I prefer my pain in a different outlet to what you are imagining, Cronas continued. If you are caused pain by me you are probably going to like it.

What the holy gods of Elysium was he saying? I why was my brain trying to sign me up?

Amor.

It was his fault.

Blame the seduction Demi God even if he wasn't touching me. Seem the simplest option.

“Let me go,” I he's trying to wiggle out of Cronas grateful if he still helped me above ground my feet dangling below.

“What are you doing here dweller? Don't you have rooms to clean breakfast to serve?” Silas stepped forward his fitted black shirt and green eyes darkening. His hair look blacker than usual like he tease.

“Where were you the previous day?” What was wrong with me? Why did I ask that? I didn't care where they were. As long as they were in near me I was rejoicing. Rejoicing!

The four of them now stood in a circle around Cronas and me and the intensity coming from them was enough to have my light headedness increasing.

“You are not like other dwellers.” Silas ignored my questions stepping closer to me. He his head was slightly tilted his eyes logged into mine. He stared at me like a bag he had found in his food. Like I was strange and annoying. And yet there was a sort of curiosity there too.

Amor stepped forward and I turned my glare on him. Whatever I was feeling it had to be his fault. My sanity depended on it.

“We never know what you are going to do next,” he said. “You think for yourself which in itself is rare in Vandelay,” his summer glow was now seeping into me warming up my blood. “You might be able to use Someone Like You dweller. If you think you are up to it. The rewards could be great.”

They were all close to meet towering over me despite the fact I was being held of the ground. I had never been surrounded like this. I had never still had so much beauty and magnetism directed towards me. It gave me both chills and nausea. I had no idea what they were going to do with me but right now I felt like little rabbit completely surrounded by visuals predators and that was not a great feeling at all.

Cronas dipped his head forward pulling me back into the trap of his gaze. Will you help us dweller? Remember if you betray us well the pain pleasure think catchers become pain. I thrive on either. I just prefer it didn't have to go there.

Me too! I definitely would prefer that too.

He lowered me to the ground and my legs crumbled beneath me.

They didn't seem capable to be holding me up I went down my body collapsing as Vertigo finally got me. Then in a blink I was somehow got on my feet back.

Follow us Yeti droid.

The 5 of them screwed off in the opposite direction of the doomed room. None of them looked back. If they had have seen a shell shocked dweller trying to figure out how she wasn't on her ass right now. I had been falling. Then I wasn't full but no one had touched me.

My breathing was all shaky and shallow. My body couldn't seem to figure out whether to be excited or to fall apart. I didn't really want to follow them. I didn't want to find myself in another life or death like situation but I took Cronas warning very seriously. If I didn't help them I was going to get hurt. Damage! Why was this happening to me again? I was the Super dweller this day and then boom back again sitting in Bullock s**t.
