I've been on the run for a week now.
And I still haven't made it out of Eden.
I need money, and money required getting a job. The hundred or so dollars I currently have saved up isn't enough, to get me out of here, especially with my status. I need an ID, a train ticket, and enough money to get me started in the next city.
So, in order to earn some cash, I've been hired as a bell boy at an elite hotel at the heart of the city.
El Diablo, owned by, Elmil Sax, a rare hybrid, pride and greed demon that owned most of the hotels in the city.
I was lucky enough to come across the job. The help wanting sign was practically screaming for me to take it. Now, I stand here, in an itchy black uniform, diabolical hat, and a face that hurt so much from smiling at the guest all day.
A black limo pulls up, and I fall into my roll. I grab the guest luggage's from out the trunk, handing them to, Henrik a co-worker that works along with me and another low demon during the afternoon shift. I frown when I don't see, Erzilo. I had just seen him a five minutes ago flirting with, Dahlia at the front desk. Looking around I spot him, taking yet another smoke break.
When does the guy actually do his job?
Rolling my eyes, I get back to work, once I finished getting the guest luggage out. Which was a lot. I headed through the staff entrance to take my break. Upon entering, I headed towards my locker and put in the code, when it opens a slip of paper falls out and I frown.
Picking it up from the floor I turned it over an read it. My face paled as I read the words on the paper.

Dear Azlan,
You've been a naughty little low demon haven't you. Not following out your mission. Ghosting me. Disappearing without a trace. You know what happens when you disobey me right? We don't want any repeats from what happened last time, do we? You think you're so smart... well you're not. I've got eyes everywhere. Watching you as you read this. Isn't it funny? I think so. You're thinking you could get away from me is comical. I have tears in my eyes just writing this for you. Alzan, da 'ling, you should be happy you have someone looking out for you. Just imagen, if I was anyone else, I would've killed you by now for the shit you pulled. Haha. See comical.
Now, back to business. I'm very... very... pissed with you Azzi. So, if you want to redeem yourself of your sins then I suggest you meet me at the Forbidden Fruit. I'm sure you remember that place. Don't keep me waiting.
With love ♥♥♥,
The Boss
P.S. Don't make me come find you. It won't end pretty.
Bile rises to my throat, but I push it down.
The boss found me.
I did everything I could to keep a low profile, but it wasn't enough. I can't believe I was so naive. So stupid to think I'd be able to escape the boss's clutches.
Crumbling the paper in my hands, silent tears begin to leak down my cheek.
All the pain, fear, and angry I held on to for the last ten years I let it go.
I saw red.
Coming out of my episode, I blink in surprise when I'm met with a dismembered locker. Shock an awe travel through me, but I immediately ignore it when I see my normal brown eyes have turned, a crimson red, and just as quickly they turned back.
I'm so immersed with my current situation I didn't hear the locker room door open.
"What the Hell?"
Looking back, I spot Erzilo, standing wide eyed in shock, with his cigarette falling out of his mouth.
Well, shit
