Unraveling Secrets Of The Devil

Chapter- Fifteen

Devil’s POV

Ms. Clever Riccs was sitting in front of me tied up to the chair. I walked around noticing her and taking everything about her in. She sat there silently crying in pain because of the fresh bruises.

“Do you agree?” I asked and she didn’t move or speak. I hit her on her face again and blood splattered around . She cried harder. “ I do” she finally said and cried . I signalled Nolan to untie her. She rubbed her bruised wrists . I held the agreement papers in front of her and she hesitantly took them and then finally signed it .

I left the room with satisfaction. I asked Nolan to show her the room she was going to spend the rest of her life in. I came back to my cabin and started inspecting the agreement. This is a security measure I take up always. Whenever I get a savant kidnapped I make them sign few papers stating that if they disobey me and run away from me then I can get complete rights on them, their family and their money. Basically their whole life .

I kept the papers in the file with her name and then threw it over the bundle of files lying on the side table. The files contained complete information about the savants under me and from what they do as they wake up to what their specialities are, basically everything about them, including the agreement papers. I’ve not got any situation where I had to use the agreements against them. I don’t know what future holds for me, but I’m well prepared.

I drank some coffee and then thought of contacting my clients to inform them about the final deal . Just then my phone rang and I saw that it was from my assistant. I lifted it and spoke. I hung up after speaking for almost 10 minutes with my assistant, getting informed that he received a call from the deputy director of the headquarters.

I always have a plan . A plan that I will and the whole world will follow. I make a plan for almost a year ahead according to the predictions of what all will happen in the world . But I never expected this to happen. I never expected fate to favour me . Never thought I’ll be doing the same work I used to do decades ago.

They have called for the great, senior most detective of the headquarters, Mr. Oliver Easton to deal with Ms. Clever’s k********g case, which basically means I get to manipulate the case as per my wish. It’s been almost 3 years since I’ve dealt with such cases.

Yes, 3 years. Last time I dealt with a case for which I myself was the criminal was almost 3 years ago. After that I only got some random other cases which I just used as a refreshment for my brain to keep working. The enjoyment this work gives me I’ve never and I can never get in any other field. Manipulating a case for which I’m the sole criminal is the best.

“The case manipulation starts from next week” I said and hung up. Being one of the senior officers has its advantages . They can go in whenever they want and take up the case as they wish to. I wanted to see how Dexter reacts to waiting. I’m sure he must have already started when he learnt about him not dealing with Ms. Clever’s case.

I think he should actually do what he’s been told to do, what all the detective’s have been doing till now. Search, research, try and try again and then stop. He should have just known about Jeanine, researched about her, maybe checked out her workplaces and then after a month just gave up on it and then gone back to Vancouver.

This is the disadvantage of getting a detective from another place. They don’t leave until they solve it . One because he’s highly talented and has never failed. Two, he has to go back to Vancouver . Three, he has a love life here. I was actually planning on ruining it for him so that he just leaves Seattle easily but I think I should just leave it as it is.

Now, that I’ve understood Dexter well, if I provoke him he’ll come after me which I don’t want. It’s not that I can’t tackle with him. I can and he would die if he faced me . It’s just that I want my business to go smoothly. If he comes after me I’ll have to tackle him and amidst that my other kidnappings and orders will get delayed which obviously as the boss of this entire kingdom I’ve set up I don’t wish that to happen.

My phone rings again and it’s him. “Yes” I say as I receive it. “ They have agreed boss. The case dealing will start in a week” he says “ Good. How’s Clever? Is she co operating?” I ask him. “ Yes boss. She had to be beaten but she eventually gave in” he said. “ Good” I said and hung up.

That’s how I’m used to people being to me. Give in . Try , try harder and then give in . I sip my coffee which is cold now . I log in to the security camera in time to see Dexter’s disappointed face . I smirk to myself.

I have my lunch in peace and happiness staring at the security cameras fixed in this building. I’m watching over all people working under me , for me. Jeanine, Evelyn, Clever and many more. They are like the soldiers of my kingdom, working for me until their last breath.

I shift the screen to Dexter’s camera and see that they have been having a discussion. After hearing for a few minutes I turn it down. It’s just his supposed girlfriend consoling him. I’ll watch the rest of the show later since I have them recorded. I need to sleep, it’s been a really long day.
