_________

Heeseung opened his door to the apartment floor room with a thudding heart. His whole body was feeling like someone was squeezing him to death. After all,who wouldn't feel this way when they invite the devil himself to their home sweet home?

Storm entered the apartment,looking a bit lost as his gazed at the surrounding. He was still keeping his guard up with every step he took. It was a place strangely beautiful and neat. The walls were glass showing a view of all the other buildings out there. It was indeed a beautiful view.

"Are you a noble?",Storm asked warily as his eyes scanned everywhere.

Heeseung felt a smirk crawling into his lips knowing that to this damn hell spawn,he looks like a rich baddie in his world. As if Storm felt his smirk,he looked back and the smirk was gone sooner enough with a cough.

"In our world,there's nothing like nobles or peasants. It's rich and poor. Unlike your world,anyone can become rich",Heeseung tried explaining with awkward hand movements.

Storm raised an eyebrow,"Is that so? So that means you are rich?"

Heeseung tried controlling his proud smile as he cleared his throat before nodding. "You could say that. Music producers earn good money these days"

Storm didn't seem interested at all. He looked away without saying anything. To him,the apartment was even more interesting than the apartment owner's money story. Simple yet elegant,marble floor wasn't something new to him but all the equipments in the apartment amused him. For example,the big black flat box on the wall.

"What it that?",Storm asked pointing at it.

Heeseung looked at where he was pointing,"Oh that,it's a TV. A television. We watch dramas,musical shows,films and things like that from it"

Storm narrowed his eyebrows in confusion.

Heeseung,"You will get it later"

Storm didn't question about it further. He took a seat on the couch infront of the TV as if he owned the house while the real owner was awkwardly standing around not knowing what would tik this hell spawn off.

"Servant"

Heeseung flinched when Storm called him 'Servant' all of a sudden. He had this urge to pull his pretty eyes out for calling him a 'Servant' in his own house but he had no choice but to compile for now.

"Yes",Heeseung gritted the word out.

"Make me some food. I'm hungry",Storm ordered before placing his feet on the coffee table.

Veins popped out from Heeseung's temple as he turned around. He couldn't believe he suddenly had to become a servant to this arrogant man.

Meanwhile Storm was snickering to himself after purposely calling him a 'Servant'. Oh he loves to bully. He knew that Heeseung was feeling proud after telling him about his rich life so he HAD to humble his mindset. Storm had a damn hell waiting for his return,a future king was he. No say he would let anyone else have the ego when his ego was higher than the heavens.

A hiss escaped from his lips as he felt a throb from his chest. He almost forgot,he was injured on the chest with a mana poisoning. He needs a big rest to heal himself. But before that,he needed to clean himself. With a sigh,he tore his blood coated top in to pieces before throwing it away. The wound on the chest was fresh but luckily the blood had already dried. Someone must have given him first aid or something.

"Must be Nine"

Storm wondered what happened to Nine. He was the last one to see before Storm going unconscious. It was useless to think about him when he was literally in another universe with no way to go back. First thing first,he needed a shower and clean clothes to put on. Standing up,he walked towards where Heeseung walked off to. He could also smell something delicious being cooked. It was not that hard to find the way since the kitchen was not that far away.

There,he could see the male with an apron hanging by his neck as he cooked back facing him. Storm crossed his arms,as he stood half naked in the kitchen,watching Heeseung from the back. The rich man was cooking? Why? Where are the maids? Then again,the world is strange. He didn't need to question every single thing just because he was not used to.

"Hey"

Heeseung flinched badly hearing Storm's call as he looked back with his left hand holding his beating chest. "Y ‐You scared....me",he trailed off as his eyes scanned Storm's appearance. Half naked. Biceps flexing,veins popped out from the arms,toned chest with bloody injuries, and abs full on display. He couldn't help the gulp he took as his eyes scanned down and down towards his V shaped waist. And down....

"My eyes are up here,pervert",Storm said with a scoff.

Taken back by his own shamelessness,Heeseung yelped,"I –I am not a pervert!!",but the brutal blush on his face gave away his facade.

Storm smirked with a raised eyebrow. Slowly,he took a step forward unfolding his hands. The look in his eyes similar to that of a predator who is cornering its prey. "Not a pervert? Are we sure,Heeseung ?"

A devil's whisper.

Storm cornered Heeseung in between his body and the counter. He could see Heeseung's eyes going wide with every second he got closer to his face. The tension rising like a hot spring between  them. They locked eyes,Storm felt his heart being squeezed from some kind of chain. Was it some kind of power a 'Klotho' held? Or was it because he was injured? Must be it. He was sick after the poisoning. He reminded himself to give Ashen a good beating for this. Damn bastard gave him a heart problem.

Storm backed away with a step giving the poor human space to breath. "I need to shower"

Heeseung blinked few times and looked away immediately to hide his blush. Turning around,he switched off the electric cooker before clearing his throat,"F –Follow me"

And silence.

Heeseung guided Storm to a guest room in the apartment and opened the attached bathroom. He avoided looking into Storm's hypnotising eyes as he spoke,"This....uh...this room,you can use it and this is your bathroom. I –I'll show you how things work if you let me?"

"...alright"

Awkward.

Heeseung tought him how to use bathroom equipments from where to bath to where to find towels and bathrobes.

Just as Heeseung was about to leave,he stopped at the door and slightly looked over his shoulder,"....I'll call a doctor for you. The injuries....they look terrible"

Storm did not say anything and stayed silent. Taking that as a 'yes',Heeseung left. After leaving the room,Heeseung heaved a big relieved sigh,legs wobbling as he walked. "Damn hell spawn! Son of a devil!"

As he walked towards the kitchen,he found his smart phone on the kitchen island. He took it and called his best friend Jake.

"Dude! You are alive!"

Were Jake's first words. Heeseung rolled his eyes. "Of course I am alive! Hey listen,I need a doctor"

"He hurt you?! I'm coming with a gun"

"Calm the fuck down Jake. It's not me who needs a doctor. He is...Storm has some injuries. I need a doctor who could keep quiet about Storm"

"For fuck's sake,what did we get into"

"Oh come on! Help me Jakie!"

"Never said 'no',my dude. I'll bring a doctor. Anything else?"

"Mmmm.....oh! Some oversize baggy shirts and pants? And  Underwears"

"....."

"Just help me alright. I'll go and buy some later with him. But right now,he definitely needs clothes"

Heeseung could not have Storm walking around naked in his apartment. Nope,definitely no.

"Do you even know his underwear size?"

"....."

Does he know? No!! And he couldn't help the heat rising up his cheeks.

"...I don't know. Definitely something big right? I mean,...he looks big"

Jake was silent hearing his words.

"Say something?"

"You are no help. I'll just buy something. Wait for me. Anything else?"

"That's all for now"

After hanging up,Heeseung banged his head on the kitchen island. "Just kill me now"

Inside the bathroom,Storm was naked from head to toe as he showered the filth away from his body. He let the water flow through his body,still keeping his guard up. The body won't relax at all. It was an unknown world. He did not know what type of dangers lurked around him. And the fact that he felt so vulnerable at the moment was making it worse. The wounds were hurting like hell.

After a good long shower,he dried himself from a towel before wearing a bathrobe. Looking at himself in the mirror,he felt angry. Allowing a total stranger to help him,he had never done that. Only Nine had the permission to even get closer to him. But now,he has to rely on a brat from nowhere.

Sighing,he left the bathroom. What's done is done. He needs to survive for now.

Just as he left the room,he was welcomed with a mouth watering smell of food.

Heeseung was waiting for him in the living room. "Uhm...food is ready in the dining room"

Storm nodded and followed Heeseung without a word. There were few dishes on the dining table and everything looked good. It was making him even more hungry. But he could only recognise beef from the dishes. The rest were some unfamiliar dishes.

He slowly took a seat and stared at the food. There was one thought in his head.

What if they are poisoned?

From the corner of his eyes,he could see Heeseung walking towards him. There were two chopsticks in his hands. Storm was familiar with chopsticks since there were people in his world who used chopsticks sometimes instead of forks and spoons.

Without a word,Heeseung started eating small bites from each dish.

"Mmm!! I'm such a good chef! They are all good. Hehe",Heeseung giggled awkwardly before taking a seat opposite to Storm. "Let's eat"

Once again,Storm was reminded that this human knew what his life was like before. He knew why Storm couldn't touch the dishes right away. The mana poisoning was written clearly in the book.

And yet,Heeseung pretended like he did nothing just a moment ago.

"I prepared a spoon and a fork if using chopsticks is uncomfortable",Heeseung said before pointing at the fork and the spoon beside Storm's plate.

Storm raised an eyebrow,feeling confused. Just why is this human being so considerate when he clearly knows what Storm had done in his world. He was a bad person.

In the past,if someone did something nice for him,it was all because of consideration out of fear. Only Gabriel was different. Heeseung reminded him of Gabriel in a way because of this. Gabriel was a complete fool who refused to give up on Storm back then.

He hates Gabriel.

And he definitely hates this human too.
