A Dance With The Devil

Skylar is a emergent policewoman, who accepted the most famous murder case in the entire country. She has to catch a man whose identity, facial features, and body structure are unknown. The public only knows his criminal name: "Demon", accentuating even more his spiteful remorseless nature. Demon is a malicious mafia boss who killed, tortured, and deceived thousands of victims, and Skylar moves into his supposed hideout to sneak into his life undercover. Little did she know that she soon would discover she had something in common with such a psychopath, and the more time she spends with him the more her mind softens and the barrier over her heart shatters. But will she succeed in catching him and locking him in prison forever or will she end up being one of the numerous victims sunk in his charm? Abstract: “I hate you. I fucking hate you. How many times did I tell you that you have to stop being so violent?” He pulled his hair back and scoffed, annoyed by her words so full of anger and resigned, annoyed by the whole argument itself. Was she going to cause the umpteeth scene? “And you to keep hitting people as a beast! That guy had his whole face bruised! You promised me you would try to calm down and be less violent! Why would you hit that guy now?” “You would’t understand.” was his answer, he frowned his eyebrows and grunted at the memory of what that guy did. He would have hit him again, again until the anger and the memory wouldn’t let go of him. “Stop pretending you’re evil and cruel, stop pretending you don’t have a heart and you are clueless about other people. Stop being so fucking vile because I hate you when you act like that.” “I’m like that Madisyn. I’m that. You will never change me, you will never heal me nor fix me. I am this and people fear me for this. Everyone fears me.” “I don't fear you.” She took a step forward and exhaled out a heavy breath. “Why would you hit that guy Demon?” She asked this time more patiently and gently. “Because he dared to look at you, and talk about you. He said he would do bad things to you, he commented on your appearence and all the things he would do to you and I can’t even imagine something bad happening to you. If he dared to lay a hand on you. I would have killed him with a smile on my face.” Skylar closed her eyes and took a deep breath. “I can defend myself on my own Demon.” She caressed his cheek gently. “I know you can.” his eyes enlightened of a red reflection, “but that’s my job. Nobody touches you.”

Chapter Seven - Alone

Skylar's poor body was smashed completely again the couter and the more she tried to wriggle to get out of that little place she was locked him the more that man's body pressed her against the edge.

Suddenly, the chubby sweaty man punched his rival on the noise, firing up the fight so much that the opponent threw himself over him and made him fall against Skylar pushing her even more.

At that point she had one only option left, it was to react or she would get something in her body broken. Those men were so violent and so flushed that she couldn't risk to be pushed down and make her fall.

So with a quick reflexes she managed to slide to the side before it was too late and with a cat burst she pushed the man who squeezed her against the counter, switching position. She stood now in the middle of the fight and separating the rivals with her hands spread.

"Ehough." She raised her voice.

The man who got pushed by her was so crazily mad that Skylar was suprised she couldnt spot the smoke coming out his ears from the anger. Being hit was alright but being moved by a woman? That was the wost thing that could happen to chauvinistic men. He immediately get himself up and threw him against her as a bull attacking a red flag.

Skylar knew how to be in a fight, even if the man was as double as her, she wasn't scared. She slided to the opposite side, avoiding the hit for the second time, but then she kneeled down, she streched her leg and tripped him making him fall with his face against the floor.

She then stood up and glowered at the both of them, the rival seemed like offended by her intrusion that he tood a step forward with a challenging look.

And right when he was about to hit her Demon raised his voice.

"Daniel, Frank, stop please, mind your manners when women are around."

They froze when Demon talked.

"Who is she?" Frank, the man who was about to start a fight asked.

"She is with me now. That's all you need to know so don't ever try to lay your hands on her again." He glowered at the both of them and they nodded obeying.

Demon pointed at her now, to make her deduce that now he was talking to her. Since he wore sunglasses it was hard to say who he refered to.

"Madisyn, follow me."

He turned to head to a room in the back.

Skylar stopped to breath for a second, holding her breath as the anxious messed her stomach and knotted her guts.

She felt the agitation shaking her legs and the curiosity form a lump in her throat. The two fighters looked at her surprised and shocked, wondering why would he collaborate with her. As she passed by the crowd some of them even lowered at her showing her she wasn't trusted nor appreciated them.

She met some of the women's eyes who looked at her preoccipied and frightened.

One of them even mouthed at her "careful". Skylar's heart speeded up, what was going to happen? Why did he say to follow her? She thought it was a positive gesture but what if it wasn't? What if he would do something bad to her?

Maybe working as a dancer for Demon was a deplorable disrespectful job but it was still a way to be someway 'protected' by him. Otherwise why would those women reduce themselves to do such a job? We're they forced?

With everyone's eyes still on her, she entered in the room.

He slammed the door close letting the world outside.

Now she was alone. Dangerously alone.
