The Devil's Sweetheart

Holy Banana Pants! His tongue is razor-sharp. No! It is sharper than a surgical scalpel. Leena looked at him and the jaw-dropping floor incident as she watched him unveil the old bat's daughter secrets as if exposing skeletons from the closet. Although he was speaking in a gentle way, it was obvious that there was sarcasm in his tone. She was startled to see him identify all those surgeries with a single glance at the photo. She confirmed he must be a playboy to know all these things about a woman.

While Devin, he has been in the modelling industry for over a decade and can discern real beauty from a plastic beauty effortlessly. With just a mere look, he can tell, which face has undergone the knife.

"Looks like your daughter went too far with the plastic surgery." He scoffed.

His humiliation combined with the sarcasm made the old bat looking down with pure embarrassment. She tried to snatch her mobile away from his grip, but Devin was holding it firmly clearly meant to say, he is not done yet.

"You should have at least given a recent photo. Perhaps, I would have missed out mentioning her double eyelid surgery."

Leena immediately peeped into the photo and giggled all the way up looking at the foolish woman. Although the photo might have taken after a month following the surgery, the scars were still visible. Her nose looks really nasty pointing towards the sky. At least she should have gone to the best plastic surgeon when she wanted to hide her ugly beauty. She was never a person to believe in plastic surgery but looking at that old bat's daughter's photo, she would have definitely suggested a yes to her. Not all can be as beautiful as you Leena, forget about brains. You are an excluded rare specimen. She gently patted herself.

"You should have rejected in the first place when you were not interested. Even if my daughter had undergone a face surgery, do you have to humiliate so brashly?" She harrumphed and went away not before glaring daggers at Leena envying her thinking that she has undergone a full-body surgery for being so beautiful.

Devin did not even bother to entertain her words. He has been avoiding her right from the beginning, but that foolish old bat was too muddle-headed to even recognize it. If she had not touched his little kit, he would have spared her considering the age.

"hmm... That was a cool one, Mr. Jinx." Leena sniggered at him adding. "But not as good as me."

"At least I don't cook up stories like you Miss Pervert. But then, don't you think we become a good pair?" He winked with a faint smile.

"Have you ever seen fishes flying?"

"I can make it fly for you." He started at her with a star stuck face.

Her lips and eyebrows twitched violently with his shameless words.

"Do you want me to kick you again. Trust me, it won't be your leg this time." She threatened him.

"How can she kick our baby's origin?" He muttered.

"What?" Her shrill voice came-out.

"Nothing." He said putting an end to the conversation. This heartless woman would not even think twice before kicking him if she had heard his earlier thoughts.

Leena ordered the Mediterranean sandwich and orange juice again when she was fully famished and started watching another series, eating and sipping simultaneously. Devin was internally praising himself that his little kit liked the taste of the food he has picked for her earlier and that is the reason she is ordering it again and again.

Little did he knew, Leena did not find the food menu and she was too lazy to look around and ask those flight attendants again. She wished to ask this shameless man, but her ego did not allow it. So reluctantly, she ordered those two not so delicious items which she remembered.

After getting bored of watching the series over and above, she put the tablet aside and peeked at the other person working on the laptop. This jinx is even attractive while working. Show off, man.

She scoffed and opened her notes only to check some of her colleagues have written souvenirs to get from Seattle.

"Renya: Eye cream, Naomi: Seattle coffee, Mandy: Fram's Caramel Chocola_"

Wait, when did this chubby Mandy start ordering me. We both are not in talking terms right. Did they really think she would get all those listed souvenirs? Her brain got a wonderful thought to make them super embarrassed. Without wasting a second, she immediately put down her thoughts in the paper. She crossed all those gifts replacing with her own ideas.

[Renya: Mushroom Headed Lipstik]

"She will not even apply when she sees it's head." She giggled imagining her face.

[Mandy: Breasts lift tape]

She needs it for those big melons.

[Naomi: Bunny backpack]

Leena wished to not torture that poor girl when she was too good for her.

[Reese: Poop ice cubes tray]

"Let her make drinks with it." She mumbled and giggled again. She was adamant about gifting those to her best friend and make her drink from that tray.

Devin gazed to the side when he heard his little kit's giggles only to find her pulling the book towards her chest as if she is hiding something.

"I don't have a habit of peeking into someone's property unlike you."

"How many times I have told you it was a mistake. Can't you leave that matter." She yelled.

"Can't leave." That was only word from him.

Can I kick him down there? She went back to her writing again before throwing a deathly glare at him. While jotting down all the dress styles she has to buy in Seattle and the things to do at the wedding, she dozed off in the middle itself.

Devin heard her mumbling in the sleep and looked up to see her whole body wrapped into a ball and combined with the thin summer dress she is wearing, Leena started shivering without any sheathe.

He swiftly checked her forehead and sensed it was very cold.

"Fuck." He cursed at himself for the late recognition. Turning off the air vent immediately, he draped a blanket over her and made sure she is securely sheltered inside it. After patting her head for some time, Devin was about to retreat his hand but it was pulled again by a strong force.

Leena in a dazed state sensed a warmth was missing from her and immediately pulled that snuggling under the blanket holding it tightly as if it would be taken away by someone.

"Sleep, sleep," Devin whispered, gently patting her head. She was mumbling something in her sleep continuously and even after many attempts, he barely recognized that she is indeed scolding someone

Why is she so cute? He wished to hug her once, but then again swatted the idea. She will definitely throw him out of this seat if she gets to know the bottom of it. Devin could already see his tragic future of courting this heartless woman. He sighed and looked at the drooling mouth.

"You have become a big baby and still drooling?" Chuckling to himself, he wiped her drool with a tissue and closed her pout, his gaze unconsciously landed on the opened book. She was throwing tantrums at him initially for peeking into it, and now she did not even bother to close it.

He was about to close it when he caught sight of a certain word. Things to do at the wedding. She is going to Seattle for a wedding? He made a note to find about it the moment he lands there.

He flipped the page and read about things to buy for her colleagues.

"Mushroom head lipstick, bunny bag, poop_"

He closed his eyes tightly and flipped to the next page not to see those weird stuff. Who is contaminating her mind to always speak in double entenders? It must be that Jasper's sister Reese. I have to call and ask him to reprimand her for teaching nonsense to my darling.

He was relieved when the next page was all about her list of dresses to buy-in Seattle.

"Vintage skirts, bohemian floral skirts, victoria's secret fantasy bra_"

His gaze unconsciously shifted to her bosom and came back from his thoughts cursing at himself.

"Clearly she has no sense of shame at all and now calling me shameless?" He knocked on her head with the book. Leena fluttered a little but went back into her sleep again.

This idiot is breaking down all the self-control I had maintained for twenty-eight years. With one hand, being tightly held by his little kit, he kept his other hand over his forehead not to look at her side and counting sheep. After a long stretch, Devin felt fatigued and slept off to catch at least a wink.

A familiar lavender scent was slowly approaching him in the dream, her warm breaths making his heart beat faster. He opened his eyes to feel her only to see her face inches away from him and he was in a dilemma contemplating if whatever he is seeing was an illusion or real.

"What are you doing.." He spoke in a deep voice confirm.
