‘I have a demon that no one knows of, I could show it to you but you’ll be scared to death.
There’s a devil in me. He knows my secrets, my past…’

A tall, handsome man stared at the window from where he wrote the note, sipping on his usual bland coffee. He caught sight of the ‘morning jog girl’. He sipped more as her hair flared in the wind till she was out of sight.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAttQ2lcxO
This is the third time he's seen her from the window and he got familiar with her face. She would usually run by just like she just did, but this time was different, she ran back and waved at him.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv7taPcA3Id
“Oh shit!” he had spilled coffee on his body.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0XJpCLzeU
A chuckle left her lips. She smiled and took off again.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF864P8gSIO
By the time he had finished cleaning it up and staring back at the window, she was gone.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxNg32c260L
‘How did she know I’ve been staring at her all the time?” he wondered. ‘Was it that obvious?’
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7RhnddxRM
The next thing he knew, the sound of the doorbell rang. He quickly pulled out of his thoughts and rushed to get the door. He was stunned when he saw who it was.
The girl’s smile broadened as she stared at his amazing features. “I’m Gabriella. Gabriella Montes. Mexican and American, what about you?”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwz92egGDZ3
“Me… me… Um…” he cleared his throat, trying to stop stuttering. “Maxwell Grey.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMWM4oOdCe
“Why does this feel like I’m Anastasia Steele and you’re Christian Grey?”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVrbxOYM9c
He smirked. “Deja vu shit.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcF1v7wYhBq
“Certainly. Don’t tell me you’re a billionaire or I’ll lose my mind.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnALOx6HtcW
“Which billionaire lives in a small crib that’s quite a lot of fortune? Yeah, that’s me.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUTnHTLwIU
“Are you sure this isn’t a reboot?”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhfnL6k4kwx
“Certainly not the same story.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbE0qfEqzZ0
“I hope so.” she wiped off the sweat on her forehead.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLoKTHTIug
“Did you have guessed I was staring all this while?”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkiQ6zj6S8
“Definitely not. I was just doing all that on purpose. I actually wanted to catch your attention. Luckily, I did.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFIx8deOsOf
“So you were like ‘Gosh, can this billionaire just notice me’.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnfYt54LfVx
“Yeah.” she bit her lips and said shyly. “Can I come in?”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvH12ymT9j4
“Sure. I can get you a glass of water if you want.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIL82F0nO5
“Are you trying to drug me?” She took a step back from the entrance.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbtAv41hWy
“Why didn’t you think of that before you showed up at my door and requested to come in?”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Q2YXXAHIM
“Just checking.” she took in a deep breath and walked in, her eyes taking a fill of the magnificent place. “I would gladly have your baby.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqaFKNftunf
“I hate kids,” he said coldly, his expression darkening. “What if I’m a serial killer, don’t you watch murder movies?”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOFRd3NWME
“You don’t strike me as such. But if you are, then I’m probably dead.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJ0k9yDgJF
“Just pulling your legs.” his expression brightened and he headed for the kitchen, coming back seconds later.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuf6rp0Ub80
“May I know why you don’t like kids?”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn4HOPCGpqk
“I’m not just ready to have one. You know… being responsible for somebody else, changing into a perfect example for your kids to imitate… I’ll pass on that.” he handed her the glass. “What made you show up at my door unexpectedly?”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBWx46GwyA
“Dick.” she gulped down the water and watched his reaction.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jaCSIc0Ok
He smiled smugly. “Take off your clothes and get on your knees!” He said it like a real dominant.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVnxLgSJMqE
“I was just pulling your legs. I’m not that type of girl.” she clarified. “I moved in four days ago so I just wanted to get to know my neighbors.” She stood up and handed him back the glass. “Thanks for the water. It was thoughtful.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJAH6kQ1jPU
“Glad I’ll be seeing you around.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6umFnnKAgZ
“Yeah, me too. Just a block away.” she squeezed her face. “I guess this is the last time you see me jog. I was so shy to meet you, and I had expected the worst scenario. I thought you might be some kind of arrogant guy.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡulGEnBPt6s
“You don’t strike me as shy. I mean, I could bet that you’re flirting with me.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64Jt0CH26I
“Hell no. I haven’t asked for your number yet.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDwDjZU33Ni
“+12064512559.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYoH8IKHaF
“I don’t need it.” she chuckled nervously.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7aR8uNiJ9
“But what if you do?”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07y1EKm92c
“What could I possibly need your help for?”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkz2btSKHn
“To help set up your condo, I can also do menial jobs like plumbing, or even sexting.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopbk2tBYpS
“I’ll see if I need your help for anything and I could always show up when you’re around. Like on a sunday, just like now. And for the sexting, why do I feel like you’re making a move on me?”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZiHA0PZKuX
“Cause I am.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5gKtEoL6M
“And there you go, admitting it.” she muttered. “I didn’t intend on staying long so I’ll just go check up on our neighbors down the street.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOo55Tc1r2A
“To save you the stress, I’ll just organize a party tonight, and then you’ll get to know everybody.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNpriZv4DC9
“So you know everyone.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSkk8vWY1w
“Yeah. The bis, the lesbians, the gays, the blacks, the asians, the Italians and other foreigners. There are a whole lot in this estate.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2PKo8HLFCW
“Sounds interesting. I love gay guys, they’re usually funny and talk a whole lot.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9BrAUnArH
“That’s your stereotype of them.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFL3tQu4O8N
“But it’s true. Like ninety percent. Unless those that haven’t come out.” she fell back on the sofa.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQaEa5acVq
“I guess you win.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGCq1IWXzv
“I always win.” she smiled. “So what would we be making?”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfdMqyFvIWw
“I’ll order something.”
“Too bad, that’s why I sat back, now I’ll just have to get going again. By what time should I be here at night?”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9dc32H2qQ
“Do you really want to leave without giving me your number? Since you aren’t going to be the ‘morning jog girl’, would you only want to show up on a Sunday?”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkwiPPYosd
She stood up again. “Just give me the time, you don’t really have to text me.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6Bz2zpmXV
“Do you have a boyfriend?”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡagfwSrQrnb
“What?” she was thrown off by the question. She wanted to ignore the question, or better still leave his house, but she decided to lie. “I do. You met him seven years ago, don’t you remember?”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSDiMfi5mpt
“I don’t even remember meeting you, what are you saying? How can you even date for seven years, no marriage.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIEW1pfsu0
“Just pulling your legs.” she smirked. “Are you usually this polite and kind of flirtatious?”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHvj4qUWlg
“I didn’t really want to flirt, but it’s kind of working, I guess. And why should I be rude to a girl?”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeF1HVYp6RO
“I wouldn’t say it isn’t working. Just checking, Mr. Maxwell Grey. That’s the name, right?”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCNNhPXwN1
“That’s right, Miss Gabriella Montes.”
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC33pes5zvK
She chuckled softly and left. As soon as she was out of the condo, she pulled out her phone and put a call across.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbgQ0d5Njp
“How did it go?” a woman’s voice sounded across the line.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmEDJx3Ndz
“The devil that ruined my life didn’t remember me from the past, so it went well.” a smirk plastered on her face.
