One day, my father said he got a job for me, a special one, and with this job, I would pay the debt we have.

Okay, I was super excited about this, but my enthusiasm vanished when I saw the place I would work. A mansion! Now I am staring at the place that certainly costs more than my soul and heart.

The worst thing about it is I have only my school uniform on my body. If I try to enter this house, the guards will kill me… I can imagine my father laughing like crazy in my home.

Don´t panic Mark Evans, you can do this! Just do it. I thought, took a deep breath, and started to go in the direction of the house. The garden that unfolds before the door makes my nose tickle a little.

"Hm, excuse me"? One sweet voice said behind me. At the same moment, I jumped scared like a child. "Oh, sorry, I didn´t want to scare you"!

I turned back, looking to the girl who said that. It was… the most beautiful woman I saw in my entire life, her golden hair wrapped in a low ponytail; her eyes were blue like the sky without clouds….

I tried to say something smart, or explain what I was doing, but my brain decided to play a trick on me.

"Marry me".

"Excuse me"?

The realization punched me in the face, like a furious train.

"I said… Hm…. I´m Mark Evans and, I am here to work"…

She didn´t look convinced at all. Not that I can blame her for it.

"Okay… I 'am Aurora, lady Scarlet told me about your coming". Aurora said whit a smile on her face. "Come here"!

She opened the door whit a golden key, and whit this gesture and whit my strange first dialogue my new life began!

*

"Today you will go on a tour of the house, and we will take your measurements to sew a suit for you". Explained Aurora, she was wearing a pink pair of glasses that gave her a mature air.

In this visit, I discovered how the world could be unjust. This mansion is amazing, only the sofa in the living room is bigger than my entire house. Aurora is laughing about my amazement every time we enter a new room.

"My reactions are so funny"? I asked embarrassed.

"No. It´s only, you remember me of my first time coming here"… She replied, for some reason, Aurora looked a little nostalgic about it, if not a bit sad.

"Oh, I see"…

"Do you want to know your new boss"?

"Sure, why not"?

Aurora took me by the hand. We went to a pool, where a girl was sunbathing whit a swimsuit, I feel that my heart will explode at any time the girl is stunning! She had big and red hair, falling like a waterfall on her back.

Support creative writers by reading their stories on Royal Road, not stolen versions.

The swimsuit was a little small, covering only the sufficient to don´t be indecent, I blushed a lot, and the girl didn´t perceive us.

"Lady Alice, your new butter is here"! Aurora notified the girl.

Butler? Me?

"I will go to be a butler"? I asked, choked whit this new information that again, my father didn´t give.

Aurora looked at me as if I was crazy.

"Yes, your father said you can take care of the necessities of Lady Alice".

Alice finally looked at me. She took off her glasses, her eyes were strange… purple, but they fascinated me.

I almost forgot that I was going to be the butler of this girl and that I have to punch my father in the face when I return home.

"He is pretty…. Feminine". My thoughts were interrupted by the comment of Alice.

“Yes, he is”. Aurora confirmed whit a smile.

Alice jumped out of her beach chair walking in my direction smiling. My breath started to get choppy; she reached out to greet me.

“It´s nice to meet you, what´s your name”?

“I am Mark Evans…, looks like I´m your butler”. I shook her hand; it was warm, different from Aurora´s.

However, for some reason, Alice stare at me in that moment. As if I was more feminine than she thought. Next, the most strange thing happened, she started to smell my neck, the proximity was killer.

Alice frowned.

“Mark, can I talk to Aurora”? Her tone was imperative out of nowhere; I nodded starting to shiver for some reason.

“Of course, I will go to the…. Living room”.

A little embarrassed, I went to the couch and sat there, waiting for Aurora to return.

Some minutes ago, the maid returned with Alice behind her, now Alice was wearing a summer dress of green color.

“Sorry to keep you waiting”. Aurora looked uncomfortable, avoiding my eyes. “Do you want some coffee”?

“Right”… The vibe was getting strange, I sighed in my head, I will be fired even before start working?

I went to the kitchen whit the two girls; we sat down at one table with a bottle. Aurora made a sign whit her hands. Another person came to serve us.

“So, you look nervous”. Alice said whit a smile.

I tried to laugh, but I couldn´t do that. I was nervous at all, the bills that my father have…. I have to help him whit that, I can´t be fired.

“A little”…

“You don´t have to worry, the work is yours. My father and my mother don´t are here right now, but I´m sure they agree”. Alice said, and at that moment I almost screamed for relief, but in the next second, Alice continued to talk. “However, you will need to accept my condition”.

“Condition”? Out of the corner of my eye, I realized that Aurora was starting to look nervous.

“I will turn you into a demon”! Alice exclaimed.

…

“Excuse me”?

Alice smiled in realization.

“I know, it´s a hard quest, but if you try, you can do it”.

“Are you… maybe crazy”?

“Eh”?

Aurora sighed she looked terrified.

“Lady Alice, if you don´t explain this, how he could understand what you are saying”?

“Oh, true”. Alice nodded. “So, let me begin”!

In the next moment, Alice plunged into a crazy explanation of how demons exist, and how her father was a war hero. Then she immersed herself in stranger explanations about caste and other things. Only to say that she was the daughter of a demon and that that to work there. I would have to become one.

“Now, you understand”? She asked again.

Do I need to say that my left eye was shaking after such nonsense?

“Okay, I will go home now, thanks for the explanation, Lady Alice”. I don´t care if she is rich, if her mind is so spoiled whit fantastic stories, I don´t want to work for her.

“It´s true, Mark”. Aurora stopped me whit her words. “We have how to prove”.

I frowned.

“So prove me”. I said sarcastically.

If I can give you advice, never doubt a crazy story. They can be real, I know, because in the next moment, what I saw was stunning.

Two pairs of wings, one from Aurora and one from Alice unfolded before my eyes, with ephemeral beauty and sparkles. Alice's wings glowed red, looked like dragons, and scared me.

Aurora's wings, on the other hand, were butterfly wings, blue, releasing a kind of strange pollen through the kitchen.

Right after this strange demonstration, Alice snapped her fingers and a red ring appeared between them. She pointed the ring at me with a smile.

"So, Mark, will you become one of us"?

This is the story of how my greed turned me into a demon.
