Chapter 20: It’s Been A Minute
This time, the woman screaming was completely different from the first one, and I cocked my head to the side, trying to picture in my head what was going on in front of me. The problem was that I had no information.
I knew there was a woman who made a wish, her daughter, and a man with a voice that could teach Lust a thing or two. The best part was that he wasn't even trying to be seductive, but he had that low, O City cadence that made me want to take off my panties and throw them at him.
Then again, walking around without underwear was probably not a good idea, seeing as I was wearing a short skirt, but you got the idea.
"Where did my mother go?" demanded a younger version of the older woman. I heard her stamping her foot, the sound of her thin heel clicking against the laminate flooring of the mall. "What did you do to her? You can't go around killing people like that!"
My blind eyes widened as I blinked rapidly. How did the woman end up dying? The deal was that she could go anywhere else but here...
Unless she ended up in hell?
But I didn't hear a body dropping, so how would the girl know her mother was dead?
"I'm guessing that was you?" asked Dimitri, his whispered words caressing my ear as he spoke to me.
"Potentially," I shrugged, whispering back. "A deal was made; I just don't know what she gave up."
