A Criminal Temptation Deal with the Devil

Evraine D'Calaré (Mom)

Phone Call: Seraphina, listen carefully. The D'Calaré and Castrevault families agreed—you’re marrying Damon. The engagement is happening soon.

Seraphina Evraine D'Calaré

Wait—what? No. No. No! You’ve got to be kidding me?!

Seraphina Evraine D'Calaré

(Marriage? To Damon Castrevault? That name screams danger... and not the good kind.)

Seraphina POV: Heir to a multinational chain of luxury hotels. Ruthless. Elusive. Rumoured to have blood on his hands—literally. And now... my supposed fiancé?

Evraine D'Calaré (Mom)

Phone call: This is bigger than you. Our businesses depends on this alliance.

Evraine D'Calaré (Mom)

: Your father agreed. I agreed. You’re going back to France next week—deal with it.

Seraphina Evraine D'Calaré

Deal with it? So I’m just a pawn now?

Seraphina Evraine D'Calaré

[throws phone onto bed, breathing hard]

Seraphina Evraine D'Calaré

[Seraphina storms out of her bedroom, heels clicking fiercely across the marble.]

Seraphina POV: I won't be caged by a man like him. If Damon thinks I'll be some docile little bride, he's dead wrong.

Seraphina Evraine D'Calaré

[Goes to her own garage.]

Seraphina Evraine D'Calaré

[Enters to the car.]

Seraphina Evraine D'Calaré

[Drive to the Mall]

At the Mall.

Seraphina Evraine D'Calaré

[Walking.]

At the Hallway.

Male

So, the runaway princess finally stops hiding.

Seraphina Evraine D'Calaré

[stiffens] Damon?

Male

You’ve been dodging me. That ends now.

Seraphina Evraine D'Calaré

(Chills. That voice—cold, smooth… dangerous.)

Seraphina Evraine D'Calaré

[She turns, and there he is. Damon Castrevault. In all his terrifying, sinful glory.]

Damon Castrevault

You look surprised, fiancée. What, expecting flowers?

Damon Castrevault

A proposal on one knee?

Seraphina Evraine D'Calaré

I’m not marrying you.

Damon Castrevault

[He smirks, like she just challenged Lucifer himself.]

Damon Castrevault

Too late, sweetheart. Your family's drowning in debt. This marriage is their lifeline.

Seraphina Evraine D'Calaré

I don’t care about the debt. I’ll fix it myself. But I won’t be your trophy.

Damon Castrevault

You’ll be more than that. You’ll be mine.

Damon Castrevault

[steps closer, voice dropping]

Damon Castrevault

My world. My rules. And trust me, princess, I don’t play fair.

Seraphina Evraine D'Calaré

You think you can intimidate me? News flash—I’d rather marry a beast than a criminal like you!

Damon Castrevault

[grabs her wrist, leans in]

Damon Castrevault

Then you better learn to love monsters, Seraphina. Because I don't just break laws. I break women who try to escape me.

Seraphina Evraine D'Calaré

(God, help me. This man isn't just toxic—he’s lethal.)

Damon Castrevault

You’ll come crawling back, sweetheart. They always do.

Seraphina Evraine D'Calaré

[without turning] Don’t hold your breath, Castrevault. I’d rather burn.

Elevator doors close. Silence. Damon lights a cigarette, eyes narrowing.

Damon POV: She’s fire. But I’m the one who ignites infernos. Let’s see how long that resistance lasts, princess.
