Deal With The Devil - S01 E90

Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 90

❝Who he is❞

.•*•.

The day before Christmas Eve and I don't have a present for Sebastian, I've been thinking about it for so long but I don't know what he would want and I can't leave the mansion. Trust me, I've already asked if I could go shopping for Christmas presents but I was denied and that sucks even more because I don't have anything to give Colt either. And it's not like I can give anything to my family because apparently I'm not allowed. This is the moment that I would just walk out the front entrance and find some store to buy presents. 8

Yet, I can't. Because I'm stuck in a wheelchair. At least for a little while longer because soon I will be able to walk or at least try to walk because it might hurt a bit or a lot. I don't know. The doctor told me that my legs are going to feel weak because I've not used them for so long but is confident that I will be able to walk before the bed of the year. The end of the year and that can only mean that our deal is soon to come to an end.

I already know that I've lost but I don't think he knows that. Sebastian doesn't know about the fact that I've fallen for him and I've lost the deal and he has won. My freedom is gone if I were to tell him so soon I will have to make the most difficult choice I've ever made in my entire life. "You look deep in thoughts" Sebastian speaks as he enters the ballroom. Now that this is my favorite place, I spend a lot of time here. The smell of Christmas and the feeling of Christmas is just what keeps me going.

The tree has been decorated and it looks beautiful, the ballroom has been decorated too. "Yes, I suppose I do" I tell him. I have been staring into space for the last couple of minutes. Trying to come up with something that I can give Sebastian for Christmas but there is nothing I can give him. I don't know what he likes and I already know he has everything. He lives in the biggest mansion I've ever seen in my life might I add so there is very little that he truly needs. 6

"We could go to the office" He suggests. Over the last couple of days he has been teaching me everything that I need to know about the company and the office. I don't know if I will be able to do this without him or perhaps because I just like having him around. However, I don't like grumpy Sebastian. That is a boring one, somehow I like it when he's smirking and saying idiotic things. "Or we get hot chocolate" I suggest and he rolls his eyes and nods his head. He walks out of the ballroom, most likely to call upon his butler whom I actually found out his name three days ago.

His name is Victor. It kind of ruins the mysteriousness in his presence but at least I know what his name is. A couple of seconds later Sebastian walks back inside and he has a chair in his hands and sits down next to me. We are in front if the Christmas tree and as much as I would love to be in front of a fire place, he doesn't like fire for some reason, he did tell me that when I ask him if he had a fireplace because that makes more Christmasy... and warm.

"Sebastian?" I ask him and he looks at me. His hand snakes itself around my hand and takes it into his. "Yes, Fawn?" He asks me and I suddenly feel myself grow nervous. Am I ready to do this or not? I don't know but I have to do this, I've already dug the hole, now I must get myself out of it. "People call you the Devil but I can see how much it hurts you, why is that?" I ask him quietly. His grip on my hand tighten when I ask him but I look at his face.

The expression of pain flashes through his eyes but that is easy to go away and coldness rises as he looks at me. I know that it was probably wrong for me to ask and I know that it hurts him but I need to know. I hold his hand and squeeze it a bit to let him know that it is all right to tell me. He lets out a sigh as he turns his head away from me. "I am not the man you believe me to be. You see me strong, invincible and undefeated. Yet that I'm not" He speaks.

His voice almost breaks when he says that and I feel my heart call out for him. Wanting nothing more than to hug him and let him know that everything is going to be all right now. I know it will. I however do get confused at his words as I did not know that he thought I looked at him like a God. Perhaps I do, I don't know. "My family isn't the happy one that the news know about, no one knows about this. None but Victor" He tells me.

The way he speaks, it is as if it is physically hurting him and I realize that I should never have asked. The hole I'm in has just grown bigger and I can't get out of it. "You don't have to tell me if you don't want to" I tell him. Still holding his hand and I'm not letting go. Never. "I want to. You are my wife and yet you do not know me" He speaks. Looking into his emerald green eyes as he opens his mouth to tell me.
