Capítulo 2: I never pegged you as a murderer

Leticia gawked at him. She's never seen him in person. Breathtaking was an understatement. Because she couldn't breathe! Though she wasn't sure whether it was the shock of his sudden presence and the deadly glare or his irresistible face.

Damn, she wasn't expecting this. How did he find her? Does he know... 'Shit, I'm dead ' She thought frantically.

But then, he smiled down at her. It was a sudden and creepy one. No where near pleasant. "What is a beauty like you doing here all by yourself?" His voice was deep and had a slight slur that made her toes curl.

Leticia stared at him,heart pounding. 'What am i supposed to say. Lord, help me. I can't do this...' She didn't know what to say. It was like she forgot how to speak.

He raised an arched brow at her." Inability to talk? What a waste!" he smirked and Leticia blinked warily. 'talk, Leticia, just talk!!' she scolded herself.

He sighed at her lack of response still. "Well then, one more patient to the home for the disabled. " He said,shrugging nonchalantly.

Leticia blurted "I'm not dumb !"

He grinned cheekily . "Oh wow! You talk."

Leticia couldn't even roll her eyes at him. His red eyes scanned her from head to toe and he licked his lips lustfully. He could feel his member twitch at the sight of her beautiful face and body. He was undoubtedly attracted to her. It was like he's never seen anyone so beautiful " Did you come alone? "

Leticia nodded with the fakest smile she could muster." Of course "

" Then I guess you'll be perfect for tonight" Devon smiled,his right fingers walking up her bare arm .

"wouldn't i?" Leticia slurred, shuddering at the feeling. But she knew it would be the perfect opportunity for her to carry out her plan. Devon came to her on his own so she couldn't mess this up.

"You know me, right?" She nodded with a smile. Who doesn't?

He held her hand," Still, I'd like to introduce myself. Devon Dwayne . What's your name?"

'i can't tell him my real name' Leticia thought. Hoping her voice wouldn't betray her nervousness, she smiled," Eva. "

He narrowed his gaze, making her heart skip a beat. His stare was enough to make her fall at her feet and confess everything. He has this deadly burning gaze in his unusual coloured eyes and her heart hitches every time he looks at her.

"Eva? Why do i feel as though you are lying to me?"

Leticia said "But I am not". She made sure not to sound hasty or so.

Devon shrugged, "OK. That name is too simple for you if you ask me. Don't you think LETICIA would be better, sweetheart?" He drawled, eyes on her face, like he was waiting for her reaction.

Leticia blinked, trying not to show her shock and fear'. How... How come he knows my name? Oh geez, he knows me! How! Is he gonna sue me? Or kill me! Im dead!' She could burst into tears.

Her panicked gaze met his burning one and he smiled "let's go, beautiful".

Even though Devon was suspicious, he was much more eager to bed her. Pin her down and pound her till she passes out. A wicked smile grew on his handsome face. What he'll do...

Sure, he read and noticed every single move of hers. She's nervous and anxious about something,and he was determined to find out, but right after having sex with her.

He pulled her along. Leticia followed him, hoping she's safe and won't get caught. She tried to calm herself 'I can't let Manuel down' she chanted but damn,her racing heart.

Is it because she's scared or because of the way Devon's thumb caressed her hand that he held. It was so gentle. Although, he absolutely doesn't seem like a good person. Oh no, not with his cunning red eyes and his signature evil looking smile.

They walked past doors and finally, he opened one and pulled her in because it seemed as though her legs were stuck at the doorstep. She yelped as he pulled her in, making him halt and he turned to her.

"Are you okay?" He asked. She nodded before she let her eyes roam the room. Beautiful. Everything was either blue or white. It was lavishly furnished and the large bed looked so comfortable. Beside the bed was a small table that had a rich looking wine placed atop it with a rack of fancy glass cups.

Devon walked to the bed and Leticia couldn't take her eyes off him. His movements were deliberately slow, poised with grace. Each step was light because his shoes made no sound.

He sat on the bed, kicking his shoes off and removing his suit jacket,staring intently at Leticia.

"You're not just gonna stand there? Are you?" He raised a brow, loosening his collar button. Leticia smiled and walked to him, "My bad. I was too caught up staring at you."

Devon smirked and it did nothing to calm her inner panic. "Come on, lovely. Serve me wine"

She still had that strained smile on her face as she picked the wine. She could feel her own hands trembling as she uncorked it and poured a glass.

Then,she remembered! 'How am I upposed to put the sedative in!Geez, I'm so stupid!How could i be so thoughtless. I was too nervous'

Devon's eyes didn't leave her for a minute. She's visibly trembling. Why?. Something wrong? He smiled wickedly.

"You're really shy" He stated as his eyes grazed her body again. He just couldn't stop it. She was flawless.

She was gracefully slender, full breasts, pale skin and fluttering gaze. Her golden hair was pulled up into a neat knot and she wore a long black fitted dress that had a slit up her thighs and a low back. Any man would give an arm to have her.

As Leticia was frantically thinking, the door was knocked. Devon grimaced in annoyance and asked "Who the heck is there? "

"Luis" A bored voice came and Leticia could bet the person rolled his eyes.

Devon calmed but now put on a scowl "What now? "

"i want to see you " Luis said and before Devon could say anything, Leticia went to the door and opened it. He stood there, a polite smile on his handsome face.

He was dressed in white, compared to Devon who doesn't even have a speck of white on . Luis has a cool but stunning face, which makes him seem like a responsible and matured guy. But wait, he also has red eyes! It startled her. Is he related to Devon? But Devon's eyes were a darker red.

Luis' eyes raked Leticia. 'Seems like Devon has picked another one' but then, his brows creased slightly. Something was off about her... He could sense that.

Before Leticia could get uncomfortable under his scrutiny,his eyes fell on Devon, who sat lazily on the bed, scowling at him.

Luis nonchalantly walked towards Devon "State your business" Devon spat and Luis leaned in and whispered something to him.

Devon rolled his eyes, "Sure."

Luis nodded and said "I'll go now", before turning to go. As he walked past Leticia, he gave her a blank stare before smiling politely "Have a good night, miss. I know you will" and he walked away.

Leticia gaped at him, his long lush brown hair falling on his upper torso flowing after him.

Leticia turned and Devon stood up to visit the restroom. She didn't think twice. She opened her bag and she quickly put 3 drops of the sweet smelling content as Manuel instructed and she cleared any evidence of it.

She sat on the bed, guilty stricken. She should not be doing this. This is crazy!!

Devon soon walked back into the room and picked his drink before sitting.

"You?" He asked. Leticia shook her head, not willing to get drunk nor give a suspicious excuse so she said "I'm allergic to Raspberries" because that is the wine's flavour.

Devon nodded and brought the glass cup to his reddish lips. He noticed her eyes drown in anxiety and fear. She rubbed her palms together and he glanced at the drink. Seems normal.

He was about to drink but he suddenly paused, his eyes darkened and he lowered the cup.

Leticia blinked at him"W-what is wrong? " she asked, trying not to sound as scared and anxious as she really is, but her voice betrayed her.

Devon shook his head, his luscious hair flowing." I never pegged you as a murderer "

Leticia stared. Murde... Oh f**k!!

He knows!!
