4 Devils Chapter 3 The Devil and Valentine's day.

~~~~* Sorry No warnings this time this one's clean for everyone! <3 *~~~~~




I hear a muffled noise coming from somewhere close by, but I can't tell where it's coming from.


"Meow.....Meerrrooooo~" I know what it is now. But everything's dim, plus I see static. Hm I wonder where I am.


"Moow~  " I felt something small and slightly wet press against my cheek but when  I turned nothing was there. weird....huh? Now I hear some sort of music and vibrating. Wait...is that my phone? oh. That explains it. I'm asleep. I turn over to face the direction of the noise and reach my arm out only to feel it brush up against something soft and silky. I can tell it's small and somewhat curved. I open my eyes and then meet with small bright yellow gems belonging to my beloved kitten Drake. I yawn softly as I rub my eyes and stroke his back gently.



" Good morning Drake...." I reach over and pick up my phone turning off the alarm, scrolling through it as I check my messages. I got a few texts from my dad, grandfather, Takano and Mr.K. " Hm..that's odd dad rarely ever texts me. I wonder what's up." I stretch and lay back down on my bed, Drake climbing onto me and snuggling against my stomach purring causing me to chuckle a little. "Hmhm, what are you doing drake....hm? " I stroke behind his ears lovingly.



"Meerrrow~  " I open up the text my grandfather sent me. " May everyone's day be brightened by your smile my darling Grand daughter. <3 Please enjoy your day and keep your eyes peeled. I feel a wave of good luck that may hit you today. Also I love you very much. Love, grandfather." Hmhm Thank you grandfather for the well wishes. I could use some good luck. I smile brightly and I run my hand down drake's back again.



I open the next set of texts. I lean down and kiss the top of drake's head , he shakes it acting as if he doesn't want them. "ooh your soo mean...you don't like mommy's kisses? " I frown at him. He looks up at me and blankly meows, nuzzling up against me. " Yeah that's what I thought." Alright pop's what do you have for me here?  " Good morning Shiki , I hope you slept well. I know you have work today so I made some of those little brownies you like so much. I'll have someone swing by and drop them off at your job later on ok? I love you, and please don't worry I didn't forget about your meet in a few weeks I promise I'll make it. I'll call you soon, stay well. Love, father. " aah dad's brownies those always were my favorite. I turn and look at my phone screen to check out the time. It's 1:15pm I should probably get up. but my bed is so warm. ughhhh....


"Viiiiizzzzz!!....vizzzzzzzzzz!" I look at my hand and my phone is ringing, Drake jumps alittle from the sudden vibration startling him, his ears perk up as he looks around and climbs off the bed. I answer my phone.



"H-hello? " My voice is pretty groggy, I did just wake up.



"Hey are you up yet?" I could hear Takano's annoyed sounding tone through the phone.



" I'm talking to you right now aren't I?" I yawn again patting my mouth.



" Very funny, seriously Shiki you need to get up you have to be at work soon You know you take at least an hour or more to get ready before you even eat anything. " I roll my eyes listening to Takano lecture me.



"I am fully aware of this Takano , you're saying this like this is my first time waking up in 50 years and I don't know how to adjust to my everyday life." I let out a deep sigh. " I was just about to get out of bed, take a shower then feed drake and make myself something to eat. Does that sound good mom? "



" Hey. I just wanted to make sure you'd be alright getting to work on time, because if you end up running late I won't be able to take you." I can feel him glaring at me through the phone. "Just get your ass up and start getting ready ok? I was called in early so I won't have time to side-track and take you if you make yourself late."




" I'll manage just fine. Don't worry Takano. I'll make it to work on time , don't start sprouting grey hairs over this." I get out of bed and walk into the bathroom.



"yeah yeah yeah, Anyway how did you sleep? "




" I slept good Drake helped keep the nightmares away. Hmhm" I chuckle lightly , fixing my water for my shower.



"Glad to hear it, at least he's good for something, rather then sitting around the house and wanting nothing more then to be fed."



" Oh leave him be, he likes his mommy's cooking he couldn't help it even if he wanted to. My cooking is amazing and you know that first hand right Takano? " I tease.



" I..uh....well..yeah anyway, have a good day at work. I'll call and check up on you later I have to get going now." I could hear him fumbling with his phone.



" Yeah alright I'll talk to you later Takano. "


"See ya Shiki. " He hangs up and I pour some bubble bath into the running hot water.



" haaaa~ this smells amazing. I'll have to pick up more this bottles almost empty." I pout and check the time on my phone again. It's 1:36pm. Ok I have time for a little bubble bath. I get undressed and soak in my hot water for a while, letting my thoughts wander. About n hour passes and I get out of the tub and get dressed. I double check my face in the mirror as I hear the sound of tiny claws on the  bottom of the bathroom door. "Drake, what did I say about scratching on doors? " I walk over to the door and open it as I hear his innocent little meow escape him as he creeps into the bathroom under my feet. I walk into my room and set out my work uniform.



"Alright time for breakfast baby, c'mon Drake. " I head to the kitchen and start cooking some meatballs and rice, the scent of out it filling the apartment. I set drake's bowl down for him to eat from and I sit at the island in my kitchen as I check through the rest of my messages. " I didn't check what Takano sent me." I open the text and see Takano with a leopard print shirt on and a heart shaped candy hanging from the side of his mouth it looked like chocolate. It was picture that said Happy Valentine's day. I felt my face go red as I just barely stopped myself from choking on my food. I start patting my chest trying to help my food go down as I scroll down further and see a few more slightly lewd pictures. The next one was with Takano laying on a swanky blue couch with cream colored curtains in the back round, he was shirtless, his pants were unbuttoned and he had a hand on his chest the other reaching forward toward the camera and out at me. The pictures texts read Happy Valentines day. I felt my stomach start to tighten up as I stared at the picture a little longer, my eyes slowly scanning over his torso. I'd nearly forgotten that Takano does a lot of personal maintenance so of course his body is stellar. Wait..what am I doing!! I shouldn't be drooling over these pictures, Takano isn't even my boyfriend! I set my phone down and walk into my room and put on my work uniform. I glance over at the digital clock on my dresser it reads 2:37.




" Alright I still have sometime. " I grip my hair and run my fingers through it as I pull it over my shoulder and strap a band around it, I pose in my mirror to see if it looks alright. It does. I put on my bell choker, frilled headband, cuff links and I grab my bag, walking back out to the kitchen.


KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK. I turn to my front door to hear  someone knocking.


"Who is it? " I ask through the door, too lazy to stand on my tip toes and look through the peephole.



" Eshi-flower Delivery for a Miss Shiki Kamijo." There's a manly voice coming from the other side of the door. I open it slowly to be greeted by a tall guy holding to huge bouquets of flowers, one filled with rainbow colored carnations and the other dark colored roses.



" Oh. Uh..thank you very much..." I could only wonder who sent me these but a few people came to mind. I take the flowers from his hand as he holds out a clipboard.



" I will need your signature please miss. " I set the flowers down inside and come back to sign the paper.


" Thank you very much for bringing me these, Enjoy the rest of your day." I give him a warm smile , I see a bit of light blush creep onto his face as he puts the clip board into his bag, he turns back to me and bows.



" It's my pleasure miss. Please enjoy the rest of your day as well. " Then he turns and heads off toward the elevator.  I shut my door and check out the sender tags on the bouquets.



" Oh grandfather...you shouldn't have..." He sent me the light rainbow colored carnations. but who sent me the roses? Takano probably, he knows I like dark colors. They're really beautiful colored roses too. They look really expensive. He wouldn't have spent more then 20$ on roses, these look like they go for a minimum of 50$ if not more. I take the bouquets and separate them into 2 big vases, I set one in the kitchen and the other in the living room. As I unwrap the roses I see the sender tag fall onto the floor, I pick it up.



" Dante?  I don't know a Dante. Either way these are really beautiful I love them. Whoever you are you have excellent taste in colors." I feel my smile reach across my face as I set the vase on the living room table. I check out my phone again for the time and it reads 3;12pm. Looks like it's time to go.



"Alright Drake baby I'm heading out for work now so be good ok? " I walk over to the door and slip on my shoes. " I'll be back later...I love you. <3" I grab my bag and throw it over my shoulder as I shut the door and lock it. 


I head to the elevator and press the button for the bottom floor. I reach the lobby and head outside. I decided I'd walk through the park on my way to work today, it's been cold on and off lately so maybe there'll  be something interesting there when I pass through. And if not then there just won't be anything, there's usually kids at least  if not the occasional elderly person feeding bread crumbs to random hungry animals that roam around the park.



I enter the park and see small mounds of slightly melted snow, it looks like some kids might have tried making a snowman in a few places  but they were removed for whatever reason. I look around taking in the cold air and sighing softly. I pull out my phone and check my final few texts who happen to be from Mr. K. "Shiki I know your already coming in but I just wanted to let you know it'll only be you and Mika working. I'll be in much later, the wife is demanding her alone time with me so I must obey. you understand right? Of course you do! Your my head maid and waitress there's no one I trust more to look after my shop then you. c:  Anyways please look after the shop until I get in and keep Mika on a short leash, she's been getting frisky lately. I'm worried.  Have a good day and I'll see you later on :D " Oh yeah tell me last minute I'm stuck with Mika for majority of my shift huh K? I suppose it's fine as long as no overly attractive customers happen to wonder in, otherwise she might try to jump on them in a desperate attempt to get a boyfriend. I laugh to myself as I exit the park and walk down the street seeing a few couples sitting out in front of restaurants eating together. I see a few others walking past me  holding hands. Must be nice to have a warm big hand to hold yours. I wish I had a boyfrey sadly it's not in my future right now.



" Oh Shiki! Your finally here!! It's been awhile. Where ya been ? :)  " Mika calls out as I enter the shop.


" Hey Mika looks like you'll be dealing with me until K gets back. " I smile as I walk into the back storage room.


" What are you talking about." She laughs. " We both know I'm the crazy one out of the two of us. Besides todays been so boring no cute boys have come into the shop yet. It's so sad in here! " I shake my head as I hang my bag up. I walk back out to the lobby as I go behind the counter.



"Have you checked the cakes in the past few hours?"  I check the date on the cakes in their various casings behind the counter.


" Oh no, K didn't ask me to so I thought he already did it. " She leans against the counter n slams her head down.  " OH MY GOD IT'S SO BORING."


" Mika seriously right now? " I look over at her and check the cooler of drinks we offer in the store. It's low on bottles of water.


" But it iiiiiiissssssssss~ " She whines as I stares at the door. I walk into the storage room again bringing out an armful of bottled water.



" You'll live just calm down, you will be just fine. If it's so boring here why not go work at a strip club. I'm sure you'd have endless loads of hot guys to drool over there." The bell attached to the entrance rings.


" That isn't even funny Shiki your so mean. " She pouts ignoring the bells chime. I turn to the door and look at the person entering.



" Welcome to our Shop! " I flash a sweet smile at the seemingly tall man with long black hair that walked through the door.



" Thank you very much." He answers in a cool manner, I felt the air around me get a little colder as he spoke. He was holding something and he sat near the front counter and set the bag on the counter. I could hear Mika starting to hyperventilate as he sat down almost right in front of her but he didn't seem to pay her any mind.


" My name is Shiki." I walk over toward him shoving a bottle of water into Mika's chest. " And that's Mika, please let us know if there's anything we can get for you." I slide a menu in front of him as I go back to stocking the water. I see him give me a cute smirk, as I he picks up the menu and starts looking through it. Mika rushes to my side, clenching the bottle of water.


"SHIIIKIII HE'S SOOO HAWT~~!! He's so hot he's cold...." She attempts to whisper to me so he won't hear. I'm pretty sure he did though. I slowly step to the side away from Mika as I finish stocking the bottles of water.


"Excuse me, I think I'm ready to order." Before I could even inhale to ask him what he'd like Mika was already in front of him practically drooling.  I groan over at her annoyed and take the unneeded bottles back into the storage area.


"My name is Mika and I'll be your waitress today." She gave him a sparkling smile and only seemed to baffle him a bit. "Whenever your ready You can let me know what you want."



"Alright then. I suppose I'll have 2 slices of chocolate cheese cake and I'll also need one whole lime green fountain cake." He closes the menu and slides it in Mika's direction, looking at her.



"S-sure I'll get Shiki right on that then." Mika's heart flutters at the sight of his sculpted face, neck, and collarbone. "Shi--"



"What Mika, I'm right here you don't need to yell." I walk back out to the lobby with a cloth in my hand.



"Oh. um well, could you get this order for me please~? " She bats her eyelashes at me.



" Do I look like a servant to you? " I point to the storage room. "Go and get it yourself serve your customer. You wouldn't be doing your job if I'm doing everything for you." I hear the man chuckle lightly in his seat.



"Guuuhhh!! your soo mean to me Shiki! " Mika pouts and goes to the storage room to get her order.


" I can see you too have a loving relationship." He smiled softly as he took out a heart shaped box out from the bag he had. " I was actually looking for a Shiki myself." He holds the box in his hand and looks directly into my eyes.



"Really? I don't know to many Shiki's myself. I'm guessing that box is for her?" I look away for a moment scanning the shop.



"Oh yes this box was specially made just for her. " He sets his elbow on the counter, running his fingers across the box.



" Is she pretty? " I pick up a cloth and start to wipe down the the counter top.



" Oh she's extremely beautiful. It's been a while since I've seen her myself though. I can only hope she'll forgive me for being away all this time. I hope this box will be enough to get a smile out of her at least. " He blinks and the light catches the lip piercings he had on the left side of his mouth.



" I'd say she couldn't resist if they were homemade, nothing can beat that in my opinion. Do you think you could describe her to me? She sounds like a nice gal." I try not to stare at his face as I check the drink bar again for no reason.



" I'd have no problem doing that. She has very soft, flawless skin, beautiful gleaming eyes, soft bouncy curly hair and well I could only imagine she's filled out a bit since the last time we spoke. " He smirks. "I'm pretty sure she's 21 now also. "




" Huh, that sounds really familiar. " I can't help but feel myself blush. I feel like this guy is hitting on me and it's working, he isn't being a dog about it either. He seems really serious and sincere pretty calm too. " She does sound pretty beautiful. "


"Shiki.....don't you remember me? " His face drops and becomes a bit concerned. I turn around and meet his melting gaze, I could feel my knees start to shake a bit. His voice seems sort of familiar to me now, but I can't put my finger on it.



" Hh..huh? I uhh...I'm sorry...but I..I don't know who you are...." I look at him, his eyes seem to be a smooth mix of yellow and orange. He holds his hand open out toward me.



" I suppose I shouldn't be too surprised, it's been about 10 years since we've seen each other. I thought maybe there'd be something you'd remember about me. If not my face then....what.." He softly takes my hand into his and presses his lips against it. He places his hand over mine and I see a ring. The ring is black and has one thin silver line rounding around the entire ring. I gasp recognizing the ring.



" I...uhh...." I pull my hand away embarrassed. Feeling my entire face go up in flames. I look at him again and he holds the heart shaped box out toward me.



"This is for you. I hope you enjoy it. My dear Shiki. <3 " His face softens as he shoots me a small smile.



"Oh. T-thank you..." I take the box my entire body still hot and in utter confusion, I open it and see a picture with me and this guy, the guy sitting in front of me right now. I turn it over and the text reads Dante and me. age 12. I look at the box and it was various shaped brownies inside in different little covers in different colors and textures.  "Dante? "



"Yes? " His eyes seem to gleam a bit when I called his name, he smirks.


" No, you can't be the same Dante...that Dante...I thought he...he..."  I can feel small tears run down my face , as he touches my hand softly.



" I'm truly sorry for what happened all that time ago. But I'm here now and I promise I'll never leave you again, my darling Shiki. " He runs his fingers across my hand softly, attempting to help me calm down. Using his other hand to wipe my face. " Also your father says Happy Valentine's Day. " He shoots me a soft smile.


"But..no... you can't be the same Dante. There's just no way. " I feel my voice get a little shaky. I feel his thumb run across my hand softly again as he raises it to his lips once more and kisses it.



" Please Shiki everything is fine now. So please don't worry. I assure you I am the same Dante you knew as a child, I've just aged. and My voice has changed. I kept the ring you gave me as a memento so I'd never forget you. Not that I could. On a light side it finally fits me properly now. So please today is suppose to be a good day, Please enjoy the  brownies your father and I made for you ok? <3 " He smiles softly, taking his hand off of mine.


"Here's your order ~! <3 "  Mika returns from the storage room and I perk up hearing her come back.  "Here you are  2 slices of chocolate cheese cake and your lime green fountain cake is almost ready. Would you like anything to drink? " He smiles are Mika politely.


" Orange tea would be fine if you have it." He takes the bag off the counter and stuffs it into his pants pocket.



'" Sure thing. Um Shiki is there a certain way you make the orange tea? yours always tastes the best. "



" You get your hot water, line the bottom of the cup with sugar , then make a spiral of honey starting from the edges of the inside of the cup and make your way to the bottom until you reach it and draw to circles, put the tea bag into the cup and pour in the hot water and let it seep. Then after a few minutes stir and it's finished. Do you  have it Mika? "  I turn and look at her. She looks completely lost. I sigh.


" I'll do it, just serve up your cake. " I prepare the orange tea.


"I'm sorry if I cause you any trouble ladies." He looks at us both , studying our faces.



"Oh! Oh no not at all were happy to serve you ! " Mika was really getting over excited, if only she put in this much effort in with all the customers, she'd be much better off.



"It's fine, Dante don't worry about it. It is our job to serve you as after all." I give him a small shy smile. I see his face light up a bit as he smirks back at me. Mika looks at us both.



" Hey!! Hold on a sec! Did something happen while I was in the back!? Shiiiikiiii~~! What did you doooo!! " She whines loudly, Dante looks down at his cake and starts to eat it.



" What? Dante is an old friend of mine. I guess he came to drop off something for my dad right? " I stir the contents of the cup around.



" Yes and I also wanted to make up for lost time Shiki. " He wipes his mouth with his finger and sucks the excess chocolate off it, letting it go with a soft popping sound. I looked at Mika and she starting breathing heavily again.


"T-that's barely fair! How do you know such a good looking guy!? " She grips her hands together.



" We were childhood friends." I blush a bit remembering how things use to be back then. Dante looks at me and licks around his lips slowly, getting rid of any extra chocolate.



" Aah~ That cake was amazing..Thank you very much." He smacks his lips, and looks at Mika. She gasps and runs to the storage room.


" E-excuse me!! " She leaves in a huff. I sigh.


" Is it just me or was she staring me like a hungry beast? " He blinks looking a little confused.



"No it isn't just you. Mika is like that toward anyone she finds really attractive. It's really a pain if you ask me." I set down the Orange tea in front of Dante with a straw. " Here's your tea. Please enjoy it."



" I see. So then I am causing you trouble, exciting your co-worker and sending her into a frenzy like that although I didn't mean too. " he takes the cup and takes in it's scent.




" Dante, seriously don't worry about her she'll be fine. She'll calm down eventually. " I pat my apron a few times  as I stand in front of him from the other side of the counter.



" As you like. " He sips his tea and groans lowly. " That's amazing, you prepared this perfectly this tastes delicious. Thank you. <3 " He runs his tongue over his lips again , looking directly at me. I feel my face get hot again.



" Yeah. Anytime. " I rub my arm , looking around nervously. Mika returns and sets a cake box in front of Dante.


"Here's your cake.." She seems to have calmed down a bit.



"Thank you very much Mika. " He looks over at her, smiling softly.



The rest of shift passes by , Dante, Mika and I joke around and close up the shop. Mika heads her way and Dante walks me back to place. He seemed a bit surprised I had my own apartment , he thought I would have been in a dorm since I was college. I told him it was cheaper if I had my own place which it was after all. We talk for a bit longer and he tells me that he'll be starting his new job tomorrow.  I congratulate him and he moves in closer to me.




"Shiki? " He looks down at me his eyes seeming to glow in the darkened space we were in.



"Y-yeah Dante?  "  I look up at him , looking at his face I hadn't noticed that he had piercings by one of his eye brows before. He moves in closer to my face.


" Good Night. " He pecks my lips softly and pulls back, his cheeks stained a light red color. My face lights up as his lips press against mine. I cover my mouth right afterwards not really knowing what to say.


" ............  " I could only look up at him as his eyes studied my own, I nodded slowly. He ran his hand over my cheek and stepped back.


"I'll be seeing you tomorrow. And Happy Valentine's Day." He turned and started walking away but not before giving me a quit wink before he walked off. I could barely think.



"G-good night....." I managed to get out before he got too far away, I could feel my heart pounding lightly against my chest as I went up stairs to my apartment and winded down the rest of my evening, Macaroni and cheese and for desert Chocolate brownies. I layed across  my couch watching some videos on my computer with Drake curled up in my lap. I can't help but look over at the dark roses Dante got for me and I feel my heart jump a little. "Happy Valentine's Day huh? Thanks. " I felt a smile reach across my face , as I finished my plate and went to bed.

I'm really sorry guys.

4 Devils. Chapter 2 The devil and the music shop.

*~~~ READER WARNING !! May or may not contain some suggestive scenes so those below the adult age threshold (which is 18 if you didn't know) better watch yo eyes ;D ~~~~*




Well it was approaching that time of year again,it's warm enough for me to start wearing skirts and so I can bust out my viola and start making a little extra money. I don't use this money for myself anymore though, back when I first started I really loved playing my viola. I'd play for hours and hours until I tired myself out. A few years after I stopped playing it so much I couldn't think of a good reason to keep playing. So I thought of selling my viola or even giving it to someone younger then me who would have more of a use for it. Then the idea hit me, I could go out near my home and play music for the public and try getting donations. I always try to be a charitable person whenever I can. So I decided after one afternoon of playing I'd give the money to someone who needed it. I happened to come across an older gentlemen on my way home one after one afternoon of playing. He looked homeless. He was covered in rags and didn't seem to have any place to go. I approached him and handed him the small box filled with the money I earned. I told him I earned this money so I could help him and others like him. This was what he told me. "You have a heart of gold my dear, follow it where it may lead and it will help you prosper. Thank you very much for your kindness young miss." I could see a small sparkle in his eyes when he told me that and then he walked off. He never came back after that and it made me  a little sad but I knew that he had to of made good use of the money. The feeling of warmth that swelled through my heart when I handed him that money felt amazing. So from then on around that same time of year I'd tune up my viola and use it to earn money on the streets from those who were caring enough to give anything. But for right now my viola strings needed to be completely replaced. After trying to tighten the  strings to put it back into the proper tune they all snapped on me. I didn't have any back ups on hand at the time however, which meant I had to go to Witch-Beatz music shop to get more. I really didn't want to but this was the only place I could get them, hopefully I don't run into him while I'm there. After getting ready and kissing my sweet drake good bye, I finally make my way into the store and it's pretty empty just my luck. If he is here today he'll definitely find me, he likes hanging around the string section.



"Welcome to Witch-Beatz music shop. Oh! It's Shiki-chan your finally back it's been awhile where ya been?" A man with dark green hair and light blue eyes calls out as I enter the shop. That was Grien the shop owner. He was a really nice guy and takes his shop very seriously, I still couldn't believe how a Pervert like "him" managed to land a job here in Witch-Beatz. I don't think I'll ever understand.



"Hello Grien.. I just popped in to pick up some strings for my viola. My other ones crapped out on me." I sigh lightly and I cross my arms.




" Aww, that's too bad I'm sorry to hear that. Hopefully we have just what you need So go ahead and help yourself, I'll ring you up once your ready alright? " He seemed to sparkle a bit. He's always using his charm to make his customers feel warm and welcome. I wish more store owners were like Grien. He really takes his job seriously without being a total paranoid lunatic. I make my way through the isles slowly peeking around any corners I can. I really want to avoid him. I briskly make my way down the isle I was in leading straight back into the string section. I quickly grabbed a 20 pack of viola strings and turn around only to see a horrifying figure with medium long red hair standing at the opposite end of the isle I was currently facing. My entire body froze over as I prayed that he wasn't facing my direction. I tried to quietly dip into the next isle over and make a break for the front counter. My heart was beating a mile a minute as I moved forward reaching the end of the isle. I finally made it to the front counter but then I feel a hand move up my arm slowly and a familiar voice calling out to me.




" Hello my little kitten, you didn't think you'd be able to leave without saying hi to me first did you? " He licked his lips, grabbing a firm hold on my arm. His voice ringing in my ears, making my body shake in fear. Fucking excellent. It was Ryuya. I don't think I could ever describe in words how he makes me feel. Although I could think of one though. Disgusting. Always addressing me like I'm one of his drooling fangirls. Cat calling me. And always asking me that same question whenever he sees me and it always ends with the same answer. No.



"R-Ryuya...." My lips trembled lightly feeling the grip on my arm tighten a little. His touch was so hot it almost burned. His bright red hair pulled up into a messy pony tail, it looked like he attempted to put it into a bun but quit about half way through. " P-please let me go." I close my eyes hoping Grien comes to my rescue.



" And why would I do that mm Kitten? " His bright orange eyes glazing over as his face twists into a wicked smile. He moves forward pushing me up against the front counter , locking me in between his legs. He moves his hands up my arms and onto my wrists as he holds them both up in front of my face. He moves in closer to me, I try to break away from his grip but of course it's no use. He leans downward toward my arm and takes deep whiff near my neck and I let out a small shriek. "You smell so nice today Shiki...Is that orange body wash your wearing? " He holds my arm up close to his nose as he runs his nose along my arm, which was totally bare because I decided to not wear sleeves today!



"Gg...aaaahh! Let me go Ryuya!! " I call out loudly trying to get some attention. As I try to call out again I feel something lengthy rubbing up against my lower stomach with a small twitch. I feel the heat rise in my face as I instantly realize what it is. "Oh my god...get off me!!! Your so disgusting Ryuyaaaaa!!"



" Heh heh...your so feisty today Shiki, you know I like it when you fight back <3 " He sticks his tongue out at me and wiggles it. His tongue is even more disgusting then he is, it's so long and terrifying. I keep trying to break from his grip again as I feel his hands tighten on my wrists. "Quit squirming so much , your only gonna make me want you more Kitten~ " He coos at me , licking his lips again. " Oh yeah did I ever mention how much I love oranges Shiki? "





"And just what do you think your doing Ryuya...." Grien glares down at him with his arms crossed. " You know how much I dislike this kind of behavior in my shop." He growls angrily. Ryuya let's me go and steps back looking slightly annoyed.



"Aww c'mon Grien I was only teasing her, no big deal. " He smirks and crosses his arms staring at Grien. I look at them both, breathing heavily trying to regain my composure. That was waaay to close any later and Ryuya probably would have carried me off somewhere.



" I don't fucking care, you shouldn't be out here anyway. You were suppose to be organizing in the back. What happened to that? " He stares at him.




" I finished." He says flatly.



"Is that right? Why is that you never work that fast normally?" He walks behind the counter.




" Because it's usually empty in here so I tend to take my time. But I smelled something really sweet come through the door and I knew it could only be Shiki. No other girl that visits the shop smells as good as she does." He smirks over at me with a small glint in his eyes. It sent chills up my spine.




" Well you've had enough fresh air, go get back to your work." He taps his finger on the counter.




" Fine..." He shrugs and starts walking toward the back of the store passing me, whispering lowly. " Fuck you later Kitten~ " that same creepy smile on his face as he walks past me and goes to the back of the store, my face overcome with immense heat at the sound of his lewd comment.



" I truly apologize for that cur. I'm still not sure why I decided to hire him, but I'm kicking my own ass for it everyday now. " He lets out a loud sigh and I sigh along with him and set the strings down on the counter.


" It's alright I'm mostly use to it, I also have that pervert as a classmate and I try to avoid him as much as possible. you can see why right? " I blink slowly.



" Yes and again I truly do apologize. I wish he'd learn some damn self control. Then maybe we could actually keep female customers in the store. Maybe my luck will change soon." He rings up my strings. " That'll be 15.83 please. " I give Grien a soft smile and hand over the money.


"Here ya go.." He hands me a small bag with my strings inside.



"Thank you very much for visiting our shop today Shiki-chan. " He bows and waves to me as I head toward the door.


" No problem Grien see you next time. " I smile and wave as I head out of the store.



I head down the street and pass an alley way in between the music shop and the shop to it's left.. I hear something a little strange, it sounded like someone moaning. I could barely make out anything but instead of attempting to check it out, I decided to walk past and  pretend as if I didn't hear thing.


"Shi..shi...ss.....shiiii~ oh fuck~ Ss....sss...hhhhiiii.....Kiiiiiiiiii~!! " The groans got even louder as I bolted past the alleyway. " SHIIIIIIIIKIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "  My ears shot up in fear as I recognized who's voice it was coming from the alleyway. I burst into a full on sprint down the street trying to get away the alley.




" Hh..hell no hell no hell nooooo~ " I continue scampering down the street until I eventually collapse onto a bench near a busy intersection. I breath heavily trying to catch my breath. " you alright Shiki....your fine..just calm down your gonna be oookay...." I finally catch my breath and make my way home, Drake welcoming me home warmly with a hungry meow, my sweet kitten <3.





"Fuck I was so close that time." Ryuya sighs deeply, looking up at the sky from the alleyway. "That girl really gets my blood going. Those soft red eyes, that alluring milk chocolate skin, those curves." He bites his lip " Mm!  I just wanna sink my teeth into her, I wish she'd quit fighting it already." The side door to the music shop opens slowly, revealing Grien.


"Ryuya.....would you quit daydreaming please and come help me close up the shop. I need to go and run some errands." Grien says in a low tone.




"Yes boss of course." He turns back toward the other end of the alley leading to the street smirking. He chuckles lowly to himself. "That little kitten of mine should give into her curiosity sooner or later, even if she fights it she won't be able to resist me for much longer. I just need to be patient. Good things come to those who wait." He bites his lip and walks inside the shop.

4 Devils. Chapter 1 The devil and his plaything.

~* DISCLAIMERRRR~ may contain some steamy scenes so readers under 18 be warned*~



My name is Shiki Kamijo and I woke up to something really strange this morning. I woke up to the sound of sizzling coming from my kitchen. I live alone and I only have one pet a little black kitten with white socks his name is Drake. I called for him but he didn't answer me or poke his head out from under my blankets which was also a little weird. He's rarely awake before me. I noticed my door was slightly cracked so someone had to of looked into my room. I got up and made my way to my kitchen the sizzling getting a little louder. I heard a soft meow and voice coming from the kitchen.


"Meow....." Drake sat on top of the island across from the kitchen equipment. The figure standing in front of the stove, turned back and looked at the cat.


" What do you want you damn cat? I know you have food in your bowl go eat that. This that I'm making is for Shiki, and you aren't getting any of it. " The man grumbled. I peeked over my counter and saw the man. Who is that? I crawl back toward my hallway and opened a small drawer from the table and pulled out my small tranquilizer gun my Grandfather gave me for home security. "It doesn't matter where you shoot them if it breaks skin they'll be down in mere minutes." I held the gun softly and snuck back over toward the kitchen listening for any movement.



" There.. bacon, eggs, pancakes and some banana slices. I dare her to not say it's healthy now." He sets down a glass plate with the food onto the counter , Drake sniffing at it lightly waving his tail at the sight of the food.


" Stop right there! " I call out as seriously as I could seeing as I just woke up not too long ago and voice probably seems really odd it cracked a bit as I yelled. The man turns around suddenly locking his eyes on me throwing his hands up in surprise.



" Whoa! W-what the hell are you doing Shiki !? " He frowned looking a little annoyed " Seriously put that thing down before you hurt yourself. " He starts making his way over toward me



" S-stay back...!!" I hold the gun pointed in his direction my eyes still a little blurry I forgot to put my glasses on before I came out of my room. The only thing I saw was a blurry figure moving closer toward me. I heard my name a few times too but I couldn't make out who it was.



" Shiki seriously. Put that down before you hurt yourself."  He gets even closer speaking in a calmer voice sounding less annoyed. This sent a small chill up my spine. I think I fucked up I should have grabbed my glasses I really can't see anything. I don't know who this man is or why he was cooking in my kitchen. How did he even get in here? I know I locked my door before I laid in bed last night. And there was only one entrance into my apartment and that was the front door. That's the only entrance he could have come in through. I took a few small steps back.



" How did you even get in here! Did you lock pick my door!? " I bump into the small table in the hallway and feel down it for the book I'd always have sitting there in case of an emergency like this.




" I didn't lock pick your damn door I used the key like a normal person! I'm not gonna tell you again put that DAMN gun down! " He lunges toward me I cry out lightly in fear and chuck the book in his direction still not being able to see. I think it missed his face and got him in the shoulder and he lands on top of me. He smacks the tranquilizer gun out of my hand , and leans down close to my face as he holds my arms down my the wrist. I try my best to fight him off of me but he's too strong. "So you don't recognize me do you? " He gets a bit closer to my face I thought he was going to try and kiss me so I turned my head away. I tried to peek up at him through my peripheral vision which didn't help much seeing as everything was still a giant blur. Since he was still pretty close I could sort of make out what eye color he had they were a smooth, calming grey color.




" G-get off me you damn pervert!! " I try to struggle out of his grip again still not being able to move. " J...Just who do you think you are bursting into my apartment and strutting around like you can do whatever the hell you want! " I cry out my resolve slowly diminishing seeing as I'd just woken up not too long ago.



" Your best friend that's who." He said calmly as he continued pinning me to the floor. He sighed and leaned down toward my neck.



" T-Takano..? " I whimper slightly confused feeling his breath on my neck. It instantly gives me goosebumps. I bend my knee and it rubs up against something soft, lengthy and slightly curvaceous. I feel the heat raise in my face as I realize what it is my knee just brushed up against.


"H-hh....Haaaaa~" He lets out a low groan that seemed to have an alluring tone to it. " Hey....now who's being the pervert?"  He smirks setting his forehead on my cheek.



"Oh Shiki......My darling best friend... your soo cute~ " He closes his eyes and wraps his arms around my back hugging me rather tightly, laying a soft kiss on my neck. He started groaning even more. I press my hands against his chest trying to push him away but the feeling of his lips on my neck made my strength disappear. My neck was abnormally sensitive especially right when I wake up. I feel my body shiver slightly under him. I couldn't believe this was happening. I'm pinned to the floor in my own apartment, I'm unarmed , I can't see anything and now I'm being ravished by some guy that I think may or may not be my best friend Takano. I feel like this probably is him, the voice seemed really familiar , Drake wasn't attacking him, he's not hurting me and he went straight for my sensitive area that not many people know about. Takano knows me really well so of course he would be able to come into my apartment at his leisure I know he wouldn't take anything. He always makes sure that I eat before I head to my classes or work, and he got turned on when I accidently brushed my knee against his dick. It was Takano and now he's taking advantage of the fact that I can't see. You asshole.



" GET OFF ME YOU PERVERT!! " I scream at him. Biting him angrily on his shoulder and lifting my knee into his groin aggressively. He cries out in pain and rolls off of me." YOU DICK! HOW DARE YOU BURST IN HERE NOT WAKE ME UP AND THEN TRY TO DO ALL THAT TO ME! YOUR THE WORST!!! WORST! WORST! WORST! WORST! WORST!!!! WORST BEST FRIEND EVER!! " I yell at him as I stand up and start kicking him in his side angrily. He rolls a bit in pain and then bursts into laughter.



" Ahh! Ahahaa~ I-I'm sorry Shiki. It's just so fun to tease you when you can't see." He puts a hand on his chest as he keeps laughing, my face only gaining more heat as his laughter gets louder. I turn away and head back toward my room. I walk into my bathroom and splash water on my face, drying it then walking back into my room grabbing my glasses and putting them on. Everything was fine I could finally fucking see. Stupid Takano, teasing me like that. I hate it when he does that. He always does it on purpose. I frown sitting at the foot of my bed letting out a strong sigh. There was a soft knock on my door. I ignored it.



"Shiiiki....I'm so sorry, can I come in please? I have your breakfast and Drake wants to eat with his mommy. " He says in a lulling tone as if he expected me to  forgive him after he embarrassed the crap out of me just a few minutes ago.



"Fuck off Takano...I don't wanna talk to you. I don't even wanna see you right now. Go away." I lay down on my bed and roll over staring at my digital clock. I hear my door open slowly. And I groan loudly pull the blankets over my head.



"C'mon Shiki you have to admit it was funny." He chuckles over at me as he sits down on the opposite side of my bed. "Are you really that angry at me? " He says sounding a little sad.




"Yes, Now go away! " I huff angrily from under my blankets. I feel him move and trace the outlining of my body under my blankets with his.



" Seriously. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to scare you. I  texted you before I got here, telling you  I was on my way over to make you breakfast. " He wraps his arms around me and the blankets pulling me into another tight hug, nuzzling the back of my head with his face. I groan angrily.




" Ugh...Takano....Get off....." I squirm under the blankets trying to get away from him. I hear him sigh loudly.




" Did you even check your phone? Huh? " He tightens his hug on me, using his fingers to pull the blanket off my face.



" No. " I whine , trying to twist and turn in his arms.



" Well then you brought this little heart attack on yourself. If you would have just checked your damn phone you could have greeted me like a normal person rather then pointing a tranquilizer gun at my throat like a mad man." He reveals my face from my blankets and nuzzling me a little more trying to get closer to my ear.



" Yeah yeah yeah! You also could have just woken me up. Stupid Takano." I let out an annoyed sigh, pouting a bit.




" Sure I could have but the last time I tried waking you up, you shoved your fingers into my eyes and I couldn't see for 3 days. " He rolls his eyes and pokes my ear with his tongue making me yelp lightly. He lets me go. I roll away from him and stand over by my wall so I can watch him. I cross my arms staring him down. He's just laying there.



"Well...what now. You made breakfast what do you want now? " I blow up my cheek looking at him my back against my bay window pane. He peeks up at me from the blankets with a small glint in his eyes.



" Well, that's obvious isn't it? " He sits up and stands off of my bed and walks over to me. He presses his forehead against mine and stares down at me.



" It isn't so tell me. Stupid Takano...." I say flatly staring back at him my arms still crossed along my chest. I feel him move his leg in between both of mine, rubbing his knee from left to right in between my thighs. I gasp lightly as his knee grazes over something there in my secretive area.



" T-takano...cut it out...Don't tease me." I feel the heat rise in my face again. I press my hands against his chest trying to push him back away from me. He moves his knee a little more even closer to me. I gasp again. He smirks down at me.



"Doesn't feel too nice now does it now that's it's you huh Shiki? " He says flatly grabbing my wrists and holds them in a firm grip. He bounces his knee in between my legs a few more times hearing me whimper softly under him. He licks his lips, smiling softly. I try keep my composure even though my body was on fire at the moment.



" T-takano....Please...." I look up at him my eyes getting a little hazy. I see him smirk right at me . He let's go of my hands and moves in closer his lips right in front of my own. He lowers his voice and it sounds a lot closer then it actually is.



"My sweet Shiki...it's time to wake up." He moves his hands to both sides of my face and pulls me up to him.




" Takano..what are you-" Before I could finish my sentence his lips softly pressed themselves against mine. Suddenly I felt a warm hand rubbing the top of my head and everything faded to white.




" Hmhm...Are you finally awake Shiki? " I hear a soft voice call out to me and that same feeling of a hand on my head.




"Mm- Ta...kano? " I rub my eyes blinking a few times. I sit up in my bed. Drake pawing at my arm trying to get my attention. I look down at him and pet his head. "Good morning Drake, did you sleep well? " I smile weakly.




"It took me a little longer then usual to wake you up today. I guess you were having a really nice dream ? " He looks at me His smooth grey orbs calming my fast beating heart.



"Oh...uh yeah....I did." I reach over to my night stand and put my glasses on, picking up drake and holding him against me softly still stroking his head lovingly. Feeling him purr in my arms.



"I'm glad, I know you've been having a hard time sleeping lately. What would you like me to make you for breakfast? " He stands up and opens my curtains." Oh yeah there was a lot of rain today, classes have been cancelled until further notice. There was even slight flooding near the University. I also called Mr. Kei, no work today either which means you get to stay home." He stares out of the window watching the rain fall.



" Hm..I see...well wait.. if it's been raining how did you get here without getting stuck? " I look over at him. " Takano?" I blink putting Drake down and sliding out of bed walking over to Takano.




"I came over right after I got out of work. It was only drizzling then. I decided to pick up some of your old favorite board games for us to play while were stuck inside today." He turns around and smiles at me.





" Thanks, you always think ahead huh Takano? " I hug his torso. it was about the only thing I could reach since he was so much taller then me. " And for breakfast, I want pancakes, eggs and sausage! " I look up at him small sparkles in my eyes. He pats my head softly.



" You got it..." He hugs me back, kissing the top of my head. He holds me in his arms as he starts to waddle out of room. " Mind letting go? It would be easier to walk if you did." He smiles.



"No...I'll never let go. Your my best friend Takano. If I let you go someone will steal you away and then you'll forget about me. " I pout leaning my face against him as he holds me in his arms.



" Pff...yeah right. That'll never happen. There isn't a person on this earth that could ever take me from you. I can promise you that. So don't go and start stressing yourself out thinking some girl is gonna bounce into my life and make me forget about you ok? " He looks down rubbing my back for security. I feel my face get a little red. That was stupid. why did I say that.


"Y-yeah, Sorry..." I shake my head letting out a low sigh.



" It's fine don't worry about it." We get into my living room and Takano tosses me onto the couch and I sort of go flying.


"aaaah! " I flop onto the couch and pop my head over the edge of it. " Takano ! Be gentle ! Don't toss me like a ragdoll! " I pout angrily over at him he just turns back n laughs at me



"Well gain some weight then maybe I won't be able to toss you around like my plaything <3 " He slides me a quick wink as my face lights up again and he begins cooking. I scoff angrily at him with and angry expression covering my face. " C'mon now don't scrunch up your face like that. You still adorable by the way." He chuckles at me as he keeps cooking.




" I can't believe you just told me to gain some weight." I cross my arms and lay back on the couch. " you are the absolute worse best friend ever Takano." I smile lightly behind the couch.





"Yeah right, you love me don't lie. <3 " I close my eyes. Your plaything huh. I don't think I'd really mind that at all really. My smile widening as the smell of freshly prepared food fills my apartment.
