16. Just Hello

“Relax, Constantine Leigh. I won't do any harm on her. But if you'll do something... She will die. Let me have a little chit-chat with her. I was amaze with her anger. It was definitely hot and sparkling."

"Fine! Just don't harm her!"

Constantine could not ignore Satan's warning. Satan squeezed the woman's chin and looked at her face. She could not speak out of rage.

"That was a warm welcome of yours, Miss. Trying to punch my face, eh? Sorry, babe... It was reserved for someone. Why are you mad at me?"

Trembling Rose stared the man in front of her.

"Y-You bastard! You killed my parents!" she ejaculated angrily.

The face of her opponent softened. But look insulting.

"Oh... What a pity, babe. It was sad. If I'm not mistaken...That happened when I possessed Constantine Leigh, right? Here we go again... Another little throw-back story. There was a bunch of stupid exorcist students who calls me from hell. So, I summon my spirit into this awful human world. And look, those bunch of stupid are weaklings! Until, I saw this man. A perfect body for my spirit. And tada!... We conquered, we rampage and shed blood. A lot of blood, it was a hell fun! And your eyes, reminds me some of my victims. That's why I think, I fell a pretty hell fondness in you. It's just a bit epic fail because I didn't finally get his body. I wish I was happy because I will be able to permanently stay here on the surface world when I finally get him. As you can see, this sinful body of mine and my spirit are enchained and bounded in hell. That's why I need a lot of power to be in here and I only have a limited time. Now, what do you say about everything I'd say? Did I talk too much?"

"You're crazy!"

"Thanks for the compliment. What is your name, babe?"

"Tsk!" Rose closed her mouth.

She stared into the eyes of the demon. It was pitch black. No spirit but she saw evil in it.

"You’re a snob. But you know, I really like ladies who are too hot to handle. I love your scent... It makes me warm and I felt an extreme desire."

It smelled of her neck and she closed her eyes tightly. She took a deep breath and finally, she resisted the fear. She was able to move her body. She jumped hard and kicked it hard between his thighs. The man released her and she immediately fell to the ground. She immediately stood up and ran away from the man. She hid behind Constantine. The latter prepared himself for the fight.

Touching the delicate part of the body, Satan stood up. Moments later it regained composure and laughed softly.

"That was a sadistic love, babe! It was painful but it gives pleasure..." he held a simple smile at the woman.

Rose was annoyed.

"Buwisit!"

Constantine somewhat restrained himself from laughing at the visible scene. He just advised his companion.

"You know, the more angry and annoyed you are, the more you make him happy. He was Satan-the sin of wrath. Your hatred was his strength. So, stop being mad."

"I can't. I really want to kill that demon! He's really shameless!"

Satan walked closer to where his interlocutors were. He turned to Constantine but he turned his gaze to the woman behind him.

"Go ahead, babe. Kill me with great pleasure." Then he wink.

Rose frowned at it but she held back. She tries to calm herself down. She will also be defeated if she sends in her anger.

"That's enough. You can't harm her. I'm your opponent." Constantine said.

"Wow, playing as a hero? Why? Because you are guilty? Do you think you can pay for sin when you save her life from me? As far as I know, Constantine Leigh... Heaven does not accept bribes."

"Yeah, but there's forgiveness. Always. I can't pay, Yes. But heaven can forgive me for what I did because I regret it. I learned that from my brother. He was an exorcist priest and he is right."

Satan's eyebrows met.

"How dare you three times a day!"

"Peace be with you."

"Tsk! That was an ouch! But don't worry... I am not here on earth for you. I can no longer get your body and use it. I am here because of a demon who Escape from hell. You know, the prodigal son of Belphegor. It's been a long time since I saw that brat."

Satan withdrew and smiled.

"I enjoyed our little reunion, Constantine Leigh."

He turned to the woman with him who was angrily looking at him. He let out a grim smile.

"And to you, babe... I enjoyed our little chat. Next time, I will give you a Beso del Diablo. It will drives you crazy and mad. Till we meet again, babe. Bye!"

Before the two could react, Satan took a few steps back and disappeared into the shadow of darkness. It was gone and it was a while before Rose realized what had happened.

"What did he say?" she suddenly asked Constantine.

"Beso del diablo."

"What is that?"

"A devil's kiss."

"AAh?!"

Constantine just shook his head and then laughed softly. He just went to Timmy who was lying on the grass in front of him. He picked it up again. He walked ahead and was followed by his companion.

"Constantine Leigh! Is that serious?"

Constantine shrugged.

"I don't know. Maybe Yes, maybe not. He was a demon and I don't know what's tingling on his crazy mind. He was one of the Seven Prince of Hell-the leader. So, good luck Miss Weston."

Rose took a deep breath and rubbed her chest. She was swallowed up in horror and she followed her companion.

"D-Do you know any spell or any enchantment so he can't approach me? Please, I need your help. What if that demon was serious in what he said? I will not allow it!"

Constantine laughed softly.

"Why are you having problems? It's just a kiss."

"Yeah, a kiss from the devil himself! And it's scary! I'm terrified of that thought. So, if you know anything... Can you help me? I will pay no matter how much."

Annoyingly, Constantine looked at Rose.

"You know, lady... You deserve that devil's kiss because your a devil yourself. You are a selfish person and you cared for no one. You suddenly became kind to me because you needed something. Very bad. And this is what you will remember, the real help, not getting paid. You give it voluntarily."

"Urgh! I'm not a devil and I'm not a selfish being. I love my brother, I cared for him. Don’t say such silly things, you bastard. Huh, are you close to that Satan?"

"Keep your enemy close. I believe you love your brother. You cared for him, yes! That was a check. But despite him, have you cared and appreciated the things around you? I bet, not..."

The girl folded her arms.

"Why would I do that thing eh they don't care about me. So why do I have to appreciate them? Nonsense!"

"Seriously... After that incident... Everyone looked at me very badly. Many people turned their backs on me, except for my true friends, my younger brother, and my father. However, I did not appreciate their effort on my part. That was a real hell for me. I was trapped in my own burden. Then, I got tired of being angry with Satan and everything that happened. I don't know, I just suddenly thought of forgetting everything. I started to get myself back to the real world. I appreciated every little thing, I had. I count every blessings and it's not bad. It was good and I'm happy."

The person he was talking to did not speak so he continued speaking.

"I was like that before. I was angry with everyone. Get out of the world you made and change. Straighten your curly brain, include your hair."

"Tsk! What does my curly hair have to do with my brain? You are really pissed!"

"Your hair is curly, as curly as your brain or worse. But this, it's serious. You need my help. I'll help you, just ask me nicely..."

"Constantine Leigh, you are not the only exorcist."

"Yeah, but I rarely have the ability. I know I'm not the only one who's good, there are many of us. But the question is, which of them can help you?"

Rose thought to look at Constantine. She does not know any good exorcist, other than that. She had long forgotten about them since her parents died. She could not decide. They stopped almost at the same time as they reached the black old gate. She peeked inside the wide yard and she saw an old mansion with classic style. The garden is beautiful, translucent even dark night.

"Welcome to my home, Miss Weston. The night is too deep and I know you are tired. You can first go to my house to sleep and rest. I offer you and it is up to you if you accept."

The girl was dazzled. She stared intently at her sleeping brother. It was obviously very tired. She looked at the road they came from. They walked too far. She's tired too, Yes. Plus, she was afraid to meet Satan on the way. She hugged herself and swallowed. She was terrified of that thought.

"Fine, I’ll accept your offer." she finally said.

"Thank you."

Constantine opened the gate. Rusty must have been sound asleep. He called her earlier to say he was okay and not to look for him anywhere because he was on his way home. They entered the yard and headed inside the house.

They found Grimm and Kief sleeping in the living room. Constantine laughed, as he instructed them to watch over Rusty while he was away. He whistled when he saw the raspberry tart box on the table. Exactly, he was very hungry. He did not eat this afternoon. He gently laid the child on the couch and went to the kitchen to make coffee.

Rose looked around. Her companion just left her. She looked at the two young men sleeping on the sofa, but her full attention was caught by the young man with long, red hair. She approached him curiously and simply reached for his hair. She wanted to know if it was real or just colored. But before she could touch it, the young man gripped her right arm tightly and then he opened his eyes. She was dumbfounded because his eyes were also red but it looked good. Its forehead furrowed.

"Who are you? What are you doing to me?!"

She took a deep breath.

"A-Ahm... Sorry, I'm just curious about your hair. I'm just looking to see if it's real."

Grimm let go of the woman's hand and then slowly got up. Constantine arrived exactly with a mug. It immediately went to where they were but it first opened the box and took a raspberry tart and eat it.

"Oh, did you wake up Grimm? By the way, they are my kidnappers." Constantine's casual language.

Grimm blinked and looked at the woman and the boy sleeping on the couch. He doesn't seem to believe that they were able to kidnap Sir Constantine eh they are not strong?

"I already know what you are thinking, kid... I deliberately let them to kidnapped to help them. Those two traded with demons and I saved them. In return, they have to take me home."

"I knew it." Grimm laughed.
