Dove's POV

"I almost forgot to tell you this." Leviathan said. "I met your soulmate."

"He's an asshole."

"He seems like a good guy."

Both of us said it in unison. I gave Leviathan a weird look.

"What?" "You didn't find him rude?" I asked Leviathan. He shook his head.

"No, he was polite to me when I asked for his autograph for Bel," he said. I rolled my eyes.

Of course! Who am I kidding? Vinter Harris is polite to everyone but me; he has ways of winning over people's hearts; he is the epitome of kindness. What a gentle brat he is.

"Where did you meet him?" I asked.

"At his father's company."

I gave Leviathan a skeptical look. He chuckled, looking at my reaction.

"I was assigned to keep an eye on Oliver Harris," Leviathan explained. Oliver Harris?

Ah! Vinter's father!

"What did he do?" I asked.

"He hasn't done anything yet, but there are high chances he might commit treason against our country," Leviathan said.

"And you are allowed to explain this to me?" I asked with a smirk. "What if I inform my soulmate about it?" or "His father?"

"You won't," Leviathan assured. I let out a small tch as I stared out of the window.

How can these people trust someone who's suicidal?
I wasn't always suicidal. But just when I thought things couldn't get any worse, they did. After I was sent to the juvenile center, the inmates who were already there before I arrived tormented me even worse than I had been bullied in school.

My parents didn't believe me when I said I didn't attempt murder on Nina, and no superiors in my school believed me. I had no friends to lean on, no support that could help me stand up again. I didn't know for whom to live anymore; my existence was becoming a burden. I wanted to free myself from the weight of my existence.

Even though I have a soulmate, at that time I didn't care about finding out about his existence. I didn't care about him; all I wanted was for my pain to end along with mine. I tried killing myself many times-six suicide attempts. Three of them failed because of my cowardice, and while I tried to kill myself the other three times, I was somehow saved by Leviathan and Belphegor each time.

People close to me know I'm suicidal. Even though I stopped trying to kill myself, I still get suicidal thoughts often and won't mind dying. I won't regret dying at all.

"We are here," Leviathan said as he parked his car in front of a huge mansion. Leviathan had already informed Satan that I was going along to their hideout.

"Gee! You men are rich! "Is this a wealthy hideaway?" "Is this a hideout?" "Because it isn't exactly hidden and is completely visible." I paused. "It's more than visible! It can fucking attract a huge crowd! How is this mansion a hideout?"

"Chaos, please stop your blabbering." "My ears will start bleeding," Leviathan said in a monotone. I rolled my eyes as I pulled my tongue out at him.

We both got out of the car as he texted someone to open the door for us. We both climbed the steps and reached the front door of the mansion.

After a while, the doors opened, and I came face to face with a guy with greyish blue eyes and sandy blonde hair. I blinked a few times as the man grinned at me.

"Kitty!" I exclaimed as I pulled the man who is known as Satan into a tight hug.

"My baby has grown up so much since I last saw her!" Satan exclaimed as he spun me around.

Now let me tell you a bit about Satan. Satan is the most ruthless sin of them all. But he's also a housekeeper and sort of a father figure to all of the younger siblings. Let me reframe it: He's more of a mother figure than a father figure. Satan's killing count has been the highest out of all the sins.
Now, how do I know all this?
Simple! I watch the news, and each assassin leaves a unique sign after assassinating its target. Normal people won't get the meaning of those signatures they leave behind, but since I was with them for 2 years, I know about it.

"Levy won't let me meet you guys," I cried aloud.

"I'll beat Levy for you, baby Chaos," Satan whispered to me as I giggled.

"I can hear you two, you know?" Leviathan said. I looked at him and poked my tongue out at him again with a poker face.

"How have you been, kitty?" I asked.

"I'm all fine, and hey!" "I told you not to call me that!" He said it in an annoyed tone. I like to refer to Satan as "Kitty" because he has cat-like facial features.

"Whatever you say, kitty!" As I received a glare from him, I teased.

"Where's everyone else?" I asked.

"Let me take you to them," Satan said as I nodded. Both Satan and I were walking together as Leviathan walked closely behind us. Satan is more of a talker than Leviathan. Before taking me to the rest of the rooms, he gave me a quick tour of the mansion.

The sins were gathered in one of the meeting rooms they had. As soon as we entered the room, I got engulfed in a hug.

"Chaos!" The man yelled. I know who it was; only one sin is too damn loud.

"Bel!" I said it with equal enthusiasm as I let his warmth engulf me. How much I missed this guy! Belphegor is my go-to guy. I know I can talk to him about anything and I will never be judged. He's my best friend and a partner in crime.

When I broke the hug, I finally got a good look at his face. He has porcelain white skin due to a lack of sunlight exposure; he also has grey eyes and platinum-dyed hair. Belphegor has very vampiric features despite being a human. He doesn't exactly go out; he's always stuck in a room playing video games or hacking computer systems.

"You look so skinny! You haven't been eating well!" Belphegor exclaimed. I chuckled.

"I'm eating well, Bel..." I paused. "I'm so happy to see you," I said as I caressed his cheeks.

"Now, if you two are done being lovey-dovey, can I get my hug?" I heard Asmodeus' voice.
And now for the most attractive sin, Asmodeus.

"Don't you look as handsome as ever, Deus?" I smiled and said. He didn't waste any time hugging me. It took me a lot of effort to bring Asmodeus back to normal.

When I told Vinter that I know someone who has lost their soulmate, I was talking about Asmodeus. His soulmate died. I don't know how or why, but what I do know is that Asmodeus was a very depressed and dark guy back then. But now he opens up, especially to me.

"I wish I was chaos." "Asmodeus never gives me a hug," Belphegor said dramatically. I cackled.

"Ha! I know I'm special," I sang.

"You look pretty, Chaos," Asmodeus said.

"I know!" I said I was flipping my hair. Asmodeus chuckled as he adjusted his man bun. Asmodeus is the most attractive of the sins, with piercing dark blue eyes and long brown hair, as well as a tiny cross scar on his right cheekbone.

The next one I hugged was Beelzebub, the humblest one here. He is the most mature sin, according to me. He's a saint with the face of a criminal.

"How have you been, Bub?" I asked.

"I'm fine, and even better now that I finally got to see you after such a long time, baby," Beelzebub said. He has dark, curly hair and green eyes. He's the shortest one here; he's still taller than me, though.

"I'm so happy to finally meet all of you," I said.

"Aren't you forgetting someone?" I heard a deep voice from behind me. I rolled my eyes, knowing who it was.

"Am I?" I asked, turning around as I raised my eyebrows at the youngest man here.

Mammon is the youngest sin. He has honey-colored eyes, and his ebony hair has a mullet cut; the tips of his hair are dyed platinum blonde. It feels like he and Belphegor dyed their hair together, or I could be wrong. Mammon wears an eyepatch; it's his way of showing respect to Leviathan. Mammon, on the other hand, wears the eyepatch to conceal a vertical scar on his left eye. It is a secret, but he doesn't need to know that I know about his secret.

"Come here, brat," he said, opening his arm with a straight face. I will never understand this man. One minute he doesn't want me to be there, and the next minute he wants to hug me. I rolled my eyes as I walked up to him, hugging his tall figure. Mammon is the tallest sin even though he's the youngest, and he also looks the oldest because of his muscular physique.

"Who are you calling a "brat," brat?" I mumbled. "I thought you didn't want me here."

Now most people call me "baby" because I am like a baby to them, but this guy calls me "brat."

"When Levy said you wanted to meet, I knew you were going to demand to meet the rest of the sins, and Lucifer has gotten dangerous over the years, so I wasn't sure how he would have reacted to your presence," he paused. "That's why I didn't want Levy to meet you."

"Aww, brat! "Are you going soft on me?" I teased him by pulling his cheeks, and he scoffed, pushing my hands away. Because Leviathan doesn't fully trust Lucifer, Mammon doesn't either. Mammon has a cold exterior, but he has ways of showing love.

"Shu-shut up!" "I'm not going soft on you or anything," he stuttered, letting me go as he looked everywhere but at me. "I just don't want my rival to die or anything."

"Aw, you guys!" "Just date already!" Belphegor commented from behind.

"Ew! Gross! No!" Both I and Mammon said it together.

"They even say the same things together!" "Chaos, are you sure Mammon isn't your soulmate?" Belphegor teased.

I rolled my eyes.

"Yeah!" "I have no soulmate, you bloody computer freak vampire!" Mammon scolded Belphegor.

"My ship isn't sailing." Belphegor asked as he faked crying. I shook my head at the overdramatic man. Since Lucifer was nowhere to be seen, I looked at Satan.

"Kitty, mind taking me to your leader?" I asked.

"Damn Chaos, you have just gotten here, and you are already getting on my nerves," Satan said. "Come on, I'll take you to him, but remember, don't mess this up!" "He's nothing like the six of us; don't be too friendly and don't talk nonsense. And no weird nicknames!"

"I know, Satan." "Don't worry about it!" "I know he's a dangerous man and all," I said. "I promise I won't mess it up!"

I assured them I wouldn't mess it up. I mean, I know what Lucifer is like, so I'll deal with him on my own terms.

"Alright then, let's go," Satan said, pulling his hand out, which I gladly took. I looked at both Leviathan and Mammon, giving him my biggest, most reassuring grin.

"Don't worry, guys; I'll come back to you," I assured them. "Moreover, Lucifer won't be thrilled to kill someone who already wants to die."

Despite my saying that I ran away from there because I knew Belphegor was going to get mad, he was absolutely against me being suicidal. He gets super mad whenever I talk or act like life isn't worth living.

"THIS GIRL HASN'T GOTTEN RID OF HER SUICIDAL THOUGHTS?" I can hear Belphegor yelling from inside the room.

"Bel! Calm down" was the last thing I heard from Beelzebub before I pulled Satan further away.

"That was scary," I said.

"You are still suicidal, Chaos?" Satan asked. I shook my head.

"I just get suicidal thoughts, kitty." "Don't sweat it; I won't try to kill myself," I said, shrugging. Satan shook his head in disappointment. I know they are all disappointed in me because they love me too much. And I don't deserve their love to begin with.

"Here we are!" Satan exclaimed as I saw a huge door, and behind the door, I knew it was Lucifer's meeting room.

"He wants to meet you alone, so go on inside!" As he motioned for me to open the door, Satan said that, out of all the sins, Lucifer is the closest to Satan, according to my observations. There's a deep bond of trust between both of them.

I nodded as I slowly opened the door. I entered the room and closed the door behind me. There was a huge desk in the middle of the room, and behind the desk was a revolving chair. The chair was empty, and since Lucifer's presence is always so undetectable, I looked around the room.

"Dove Stanley, you are here," a deep voice boomed inside the room. I was surprised by his sudden presence behind me, so I turned around in shock.

A dangerous pair of heterochromatic eyes were staring right back at my brown ones.

Oh, he's human, alright. But his one eye is still vermilion, whereas the other one is a darker shade of brown. I would be lying if I said that I was not curious about this man. I'm so curious about him that I would sell my soul to the devil just to satisfy my curiosity.
