Chapter 1: q u e e n s take c•H•a•R• g•E
Ruby's POV
I'm Ruby Braveheart, 22 and a justice bringer to those who haven't been brought justice. So yes, a lawyer.
Life isn't fair to me so I fight it. Constantly. "Food for your thoughts?" Nana asked, looking over my shoulder as she pet Molina.
I shake my head "I'm just..." I look at the view of the sunset that was just staring right at me. I sigh "Do you think its gonna come back and bite me in the arse?" I ask Nana and she rose a brow.
"Oh you mean.." she waits for me to fill it in "The wolves, do you think it'll come back and bite me?" I ask.
She says an 'oh' and Molina pokes her. She quickly turns her attention to her pet. "Don't poke me again!" She almost yells and comes back to me. "If it does come back, don't worry Ruby. I'm here" she smiles at me and I almost feel relieved.
As soon as it starts to turn dark, we retreat back to our home. I lay down my scythe on its case and sit on the couch. Nana starts making dinner until Harith walks in the room. "Nana.." he groans and Nana runs to his aide.
"What is it?" She asks, she really does care for him. "I haven't had my kiss" he pouts and Nana giggles. I am completely annoyed and retreated to my room quickly, yelling "Get a room!" When I reached my door.
As soon as I closed the door, I started looking around my room. My grandma's glasses came into view and I stare at it.
"Ruby!! Dinner's ready!" Nana yells and I started walking back to the main room.
(Next day)
I woke up to the normal cloudy day. And I even forget, that its time for work. I groan and whined all day long because its time for me to walk out of my bed.
Wearing my usual red dress, red cloak and put on my eyepatch, I slipped into my shoes and went to work. Of course bringing my scythe with me.
I started running to my building until some blue leathered man bumped into me. "Hey!" I yell at him and he just continued to run. "Sorry!" I hear from the distance
This is what I hate about men. It's that they're not as nice as you think they are. They might as well be wolves. Completely focused on a target, finish it, and leave the target weak, helpless and scared. At least I'm not like that anymore.
Once I reached the firm, I was greeted by Karina, the head of the FBI. She's always waiting to see if she has enough proof to bring justice for her lost sister. "Ruby, I think I just saw Alucard Demon Hunter walk in here!" She said and I look at her all confused.
She gets that I don't even know any 'Credit Card Death Hunger' and she rolls her eyes. "CEO of Demon Hunter Corps.? Don't tell me you don't know the youngest eligible bachelor that is. Well, Alucard Demon Hunter" she exaggerates and I roll my eyes at her.
"You are hopeless. Anyways, I'm going to ask Sun if he could help me investigate" she says leaves. Can't she ask the FBI? She is an agent right?
I walk to the break room and see half full coffee and put in a cup and continue to drink it. "Ruby, we have a case for you to go over" I look at Sun as he gave me a few files. "I'll go over them once I reach my office. Just drop it there." I say and sip my coffee a bit more.
"Ruby, Alucard Demon Hunter is there. I can not get in there without that death stare. That dude is just plain creepy to me" He whispers to me and hands me he files. Who the hell is this Aloof Hamper that I'm hearing of?
I sigh and tighten my grip on the files, almost folding it unevenly so I finish my coffee and stomp my way to my office. I need to get this over with already.
The second I opened the door to my office. I froze, it was the rude blue leather man from before! That freaking douche thinks he could just go ahead and be rude to people like he's better than them!? Oh damn, was I filled with rage.
"Hey you! You're the rude blue douchebag who bumped me on the sidewalk!" I stomp more to him and hook his neck up to my level. And froze, damn wasn't that a cute face. Why did Sun even say he's scary. I tried to hide my cheeks and continue my despise to him. "If you think you can get a case with my brains in it, don't even think of asking a lawyer to do your dirty work!" I yell.
He removes my scythe from his neck slowly and drop it. "First of all, you really can't think of anything else to say huh? Second of all, why are you blushing?" So this is the mean face... He tilted his head and crossed his arms.
I started to stutter. And breathe in, breathe out. "Why couldn't you say at least an excuse me to a person you bumped?" I asked him and he lowers his face near mine. "I didn't bump you sweetheart, you bumped onto me"
"I was clearly in front of you. And there was plenty of space!" I stated the obvious and he fixed his posture. "Well then I guess I wasn't paying attention" he said "I even said sorry" he added.
I sigh and give up. "So" he breathed in "May we continue?" He offered me my seat and I roll my eyes. When I sat down, we started talking about his case and what it was about. Who was the other side and his reasons.
...
"So it starts on Wednesday" he says and leaves. After that, I started working on the case. It's either Fanny Steele stole his buff or the other way around. I look at the buff's entire history and Fanny Steele has most takes on it. And surely Credit Card has taken a few. 1/4 of its shares go to him actually.
And he's taken other people's buffs too!! How the hell am I supposed to defend this guy? A bunch of complaints has made its way but it just silenced when it enlarges.
I'm going to need evidence. And fast.
