The Devil's Sweetheart

Chapter 142 - Educational Rock Star

Honest to goodness, he has never encountered such a lovely confession in his entire existence. Though he gets many in a day from his followers, he hardly had time to read it and he knew none of them would be a unique one like Leena has composed and it was solely written for him. The letter might be a combination of chemistry, science, mathematics, or some other subject which he did not mind right now other than his drumming heart, but he could feel the depth of her feelings.

"Ummm...Devin....did you read the letter?" Leena returned his hug inhaling his scent deeply. Oddly, it is provoking many thoughts and memories of him.

"I have no words to express how beautifully the letter is composed." He released her and pressed a kiss on her forehead lovingly. "I feel a very unusual sensation now. If it's not indigestion, then I must be grateful to you for confessing in such a beautiful and unique way."

"You are slowly joining in on my weirdness, Devin." She smiled at his choice of words. "Do you mind if I am crazy? Many people don't like_

"I am lucky enough to find a crazy girl like you, I am never letting you go, Leena." He nuzzled his nose onto her cheek feeling a strong sense of affection. "What kind of dress you want?" He remembered she wants him to buy a dress since she accepted him into her life. Devin didn't want to admit to her but he couldn't stop laughing when he reached the last part of the letter where she asked to buy a dress. The pickup line was more of a children's bargaining.

"Anything. I trust your taste. If you have picked me out of the seven billion population, then you should have very good taste. After all my beauty is ethereal." She proudly brandished her beauty again which Devin was used to now.

"And If I have asked you one dress, it doesn't mean that you have to get only one. Don't be a miser unlike before." She berated him referring to the dresses she received from his brand on the first day. She confirmed that it is indeed Devin who brought her the dresses.

"Alright sweetheart." He made a note to buy in a bigger volume this time. "Now do you believe that I don't have any past love?"

"Yes! A million times." Leena nodded her head fervently. In fact, she was internally doing a happy dance.

"Did you have come here to confess your feelings?" Guilt passed when he acted rashly on her without knowing the truth.

"And you have criticized me that I came here to mock at you." She yelled at him seizing the chance to make him look like a criminal.

"I am sorry for shouting at you." He tried to coax bringing his puppy face on to the surface. "Are you still mad at me?"

"Maybe if you say 'Sorry, I was little ass before', I will excuse and take you back into my life." Leena suppressed her laugh watching his face turning cranky. But until she got the desired sorry from him, Leena didn't leave him and finally, he has to give in to her wishes and utter those foul words from his mouth.

"Any other demands you have?" He asked with a sigh.

"Yes. Although I have written the confession letter, you did not read it first. So, logically, you are the first to confess." Leena informed him strictly. Finally, she could maintain her man-hater image and peacock to her friends shamelessly that he was the one running behind her.

"Yes madam. I don't mind at all. Happy now?" Devin was glad that he has taken the initiative to confess his feelings. He wants to be top in it at least. "But does it make any difference? I am not going to tell it to any_"

"It will make a hell lot of difference." She interrupted in the middle. "What if you tell that I was the first to propose in front of our children in the future? What do they think of me?"

For a second both stared at each other without a word. Leena instantly covered her mouth with her hands for slipping her tongue again.

"I_I have to go to the bathroom." Before Devin could catch her, Leena whisked away but suddenly remembered she is still in his house. Can I escape from him now? Slowly she turned around and peeked at him, her embarrassment deepened as she took a peek at his face.

'Your mouth doesn't have control, Leena. Now he will think that I am the desperate one here. You started the relationship today and already thinking about children.'

When Devin finally landed into his world, he looked at her embarrassed face and strolled towards her swiftly.

"You seem to be desperate, darling. Let's go and make one." He wanted to push and tease her about how far she would let her. The idea of bringing a new life into their life was turning him into mush.

"I_I didn't mean that." She stammered with her words. "It slipped out of my mouth without conscience."

"Thoughts doesn't slip unless you are thinking about it in your mind. We can make one_"

"I am hungry. Make something to eat.'" Leena cut him off in the middle to shift his attention.

"Is that your another trick to divert me?" He asked crossing his hands.

"I came here without eating anything because even if I see the food, your face would pop up." She wiped her imaginary tears. "Do you want me to starve to death even now?"

"Drama Queen. You always hit my bottom line." He pinched her cheeks when she looked even cuter with her crocodile tears. "What do you want to eat? I will make it for you."

"Anything from your hand." She pulled his hand and brushed his palm while maintaining eye contact with him. Her thoughts rushed back to the day she spoke something nonsense about palm and feet. Her face reddened when her eyes docked down. Instantly, she gazed up putting a stop to her lewd thoughts.

"If you keep teasing me, we will end up somewhere else." His warm breath amused her, she was again drowning in those eyes.

"Where will we end up?" She innocently batted her eyelashes, a mirth was dancing in her eyes.

"Stay here. I will go and make something." He cleared his throat retreating his hand. Temptress was the only word that penetrated his mind for this feisty angel. She is unraveling the beast in him to feast on her again.

A sly smile crept over her lips after he walked out of the room. Leena went towards his bed, jumped on it, and made herself comfortable. A sigh of relief escaped from her lips when she felt that the heavyweight has been lifted from her shoulders.

"I was the one he liked me from the beginning?"' She giggled rolling on the bed in all happiness. She was in her pool of thoughts until she got a sniff of burning smell after a long stretch.

"What is this nasty smell?" Unable to withstand, Leena jumped from the bed and marched forward until she got a strong whiff of a certain food smell in a certain direction and walked towards it. Just when she entered the kitchen and looked at the scene, she wanted to roll on the floor laughing.

She thought rocket science might be more complicated than cooking for Devin when she saw him seriously concentrating on the dish while using a cherry-pick to see if the tofu is perfectly boiled or not, although it has already turned into a dark brown. The kitchen was in no state to recognize. Everything is scattered here and there. All this happened within minutes?

"Is this a kitchen or forgotten burger on the grill?" Devin snapped and turned to her from his serious state.

"My cooking is fabulous. It burnt a little, that's all." He argued. He thought he could manage it using YouTube without letting Leena know about his cooking skills but he was caught by her.

"A little?" She shouted. "Even the smoke alarm is cheering you." Here she was thinking of throwing kitchen responsibilities in the future when she heard that he made the kale salad by himself but watching his extraordinary cooking skills, she withdrew the petition. Leena was sure that the kale salad would be no good to taste.

"You can't make me do all the kitchen stuff, Devin. You need to learn all these things for the future." She started lecturing him and carefully walked crossing all the monkey wrench in the work stunts he made in the kitchen.

"Why would I ask you to do this kind of stuff. We have a cook, sweetheart."

"But still you have to learn it. Let's start with the basics. I am going to be your educational rock star today." Leena took the responsibility of teaching when even she was mediocre in it but she would never admit it.

"What kind of things will you teach?" He cleared the distance and grabbed her by the waist pulling her towards him. "Instead of learning cooking, let's do something productive."

"You are distracting the teacher." She pushed him away when his scent was intoxicating her again. "We are going to make fresh juice and that is going to be your first lesson."

He did not have any other choice except to oblige her wishes and started executing the steps which Leena was instructing. Leena felt that making him learn cooking was worse than sending Cutie to her school.

She finally stood there observing him cutting the watermelon carefully. Her heart was thumping seeing his captivating face from the side. Even when he is cooking, she felt him alluring. His eyes were shining brighter than stars as if the universe was dancing in those pools.

Her legs gave in, camouflaging her brain, and went behind him. Without warning, she encircled her arms around his waist laying her head on the back.

"Is this one of your teaching skills?" He shuddered at the sudden attack. She would definitely give me a heart attack one day.

"Hmm.. It's a test to check if you are concentrating while cooking." She whispered.

His breath haggard, still Devin tried to concentrate but Leena was making it difficult for him when she started stroking his arms deliberately. The last self-defense he was maintaining crushed and he threw the knife which landed somewhere else which he didn't care as long as it was would not hurt his sweetheart.

"Then you are a terrible teacher." He turned around swiftly, lifted her by the waist, and positioned her onto the kitchen counter.. Without waiting for a reply, he swooped in for another passionate kiss.
