The Secret Life of the Demon's Wife

“You tried to kill me before, why can’t you do it now?” she asked, her eyes burning with fury. “I didn’t love you back then.” He shrugged. “What?” Ladislas Forester was a bored immortal looking for a thrill. And then, Anna Dunn crash-landed into his monotonous life. The first time he saw her, she had sneaked into the men’s bathroom and seen more of him than anyone else had. The second time, he saw her sitting at the back of the class during his lecture, dozing off. The third time, he found out that she didn’t even flinch at the sight of a dead body. The supervillain in him was intrigued. Death to those that say Anna Dunn was a boring girl with no future! She was clearly living a secret life! For once, Ladislas was fascinated by someone. He was willing to put her over the greater good. He was selfish and unkind. She was the invisible hero who could only offer him the second position in her life. Her duty came first. He, though… He could burn the world for one last glimpse of her. And so, the supervillain fell in love with the hero. That couldn’t be a good thing, right? Sometimes, the hero is corrupted by the villain and switches their side. Other times, the villain becomes a wife-dotting slave and gives her everything she asks for. Which one do you think will happen?

Blocking Yourself In

Once they saw her garb, they cried for help. "Please come out of the room and go up the stairs. Don't stay here." She led them out carefully and put the girl down right outside the fire exit.

"Run up. Immediately. Stand on the roof if you can. Do not come out if anyone with a gun comes toward you and make yourself invisible. Do you understand?" she barked.

The girl cried but nodded. She waddled up the stairs and Anna returned.

She could hear commotion from the lower floors, but she knew how to prioritize. She found every cleaning trolly and piece of furniture she could from the hallways and stacked them in front of the stairs, making the barricade so hard to cross that the assailants would be frustrated.

She went and did the same thing on the other exits as well. But she was left with the magnificent responsibility of holding the fort until the other team could come inside and rescue the rest of the people.
