Part 29:

Husk walks me to the front door and pulls me in possessively before kissing me good bye and it makes me just a little bit sad. I can't deal with him, or Alastor, or think about hunting. I need to get lost doing other things.

I head home remembering what Peaches did with the things she never wanted in her home. She packed them up and put them in the home she drags men to hell in.. That's a good fucking idea. I head home to Gary's and decide to make it feel more like home.

I walk into the bedroom that's been neglected since the new sex room was professionally installed. I looked through the clothes and throw all the ones I like in a pile, all the ones that have upcycling potential in another and clothes I will never wear in a third. I grab all the decor that isn't my taste and begin packing that too. I fill Gary's trunk and backseat with as much stuff as can fit and begin making my way over to Peaches old place.

As I head to the driver's seat my neighbor comes out and says "Gary! Did you find a new place?" I wave and say "No I just don't need this stuff so I am leaving it in an abandoned house." He smiles as he sets his garbage on the curb. "How's your first week treating you?" I get in the car and wink back at him "It depends on who you ask." And I drive away. Off to Peaches old place to unpack.

I get to Peaches old place and start unpacking and as I do Peaches appears looking confused. "Are you moving in? Because your overnights are going to be something else if that happens.."

My smile broadens "I hadn't considered that.. How many souls do you bring to hell a night? Three now?" Peaches smiles and says "I brought FIVE back last night!" I pick her up and swing her around in excitement. "Oh, Peaches! That's amazing! Look at how much you've grown already! I love it!"

I put her down and she says "Okay but.." and puts her finger on the box I left on the table. "I saw that you put your old stuff here for the souls you bring to hell so I thought I would do the same." She nods in understanding.. "So you 'wouldn't' hunker down in here for the souls, too fresh? You need to hunt?" I kiss her on the forehead "Now you're getting it."

Peaches follows me to the car and asks as I continue to unpack "So what are your plans for the day? Hunting? Exploring? Coming home with me?" holding doors for me along the way. "I need to read up on deals. I just made one with Alastor and I thought I was getting the better end of the deal, but now I am not so sure.. so I am going to put a pause on Siren lore for a bit and read up on deals instead. I won't get fooled again, next time it may cost me my soul. The decluttering is a part of the process, it helps me clear my head."

"So can we study together at the pub or are we still not allowed to talk about it?" I sweep her into my arms sitting her on the now closed trunk of the car and kiss her. "I want to study, if I have you sitting beside me, the way your thighs taste will be the only thing on my mind.. Peaches." She giggles and spreads her legs pulling me between them "What if I just.. pushed your head down right here?" I begin kissing down her neck and as she begins to get excited, thinking I was going to fuck her on the car in the street in broad daylight, I whisper in her ear, "Then I would throw you over my shoulder and drag you back into your place and you would ruin the entire day I had planned."

Peaches smiles, pulls herself up around my neck as she kisses me again and slides down my wounded body and says "Oh, that sounds delicious. Come early tonight." as she walks back to her home.. looking back at me just once, waving bye as she does.

I head home to Gary's and start meal prepping as I start reading up on deals..

*****

Deals once sealed by the two persons entering the deal are unbreakable except for in the case of death, disappearance or any other unknown factors that will interfere with the terms that are met to the satisfaction of both parties involved.

Deals do not have a fair/unfair system, you either agree to the terms or you do not. Not agreeing with the terms does not mean the deal will not be sealed, sealing or not sealing the deal is up to the individuals involved in the deal.

Terms of deals may be renegotiated if both parties are open to the addendums and reseal the deal.

The only way to own a soul is through a deal.

I have had enough info for the moment. I put my meal prepped food cubes in the freezer and start shredding apart the clothes I planned to upcycle. I love the colours.. Blues, greens, blacks & some solid whites that I planned on dying purple to compliment my sad excuse for a wardrobe. I think I need to go shopping.

I grab the keys and head back to the shopping square I bought my second purple dress from. I parked outside Husks and set off for a fun and free afternoon of shopping and eating and no air breathing drama. I hit up the bistro for a shrimp wrap and I head back to the boutique I bought some cute clothes at before and strolled through the entire place as I ate my food. Once I was done eating went back to the beginning and grabbed everything that was purple and in my size. Dresses, pants, shorts, there was even a cute little purple military outfit.. All gorgeous and just a little bit revealing.. and exactly what I needed to hunt.. to lure.. all of it.. and it was an under water boutique so it's ALL quick dry! I fucking love it!

The woman rings me up and I go on my merry little way back to Gary.. and Gary's.. On my way home I stop in the shop I bought my sex room and said "Where do I furnish non sex rooms at?" The same entity that helped me before came back and said, same place different subsection. Pride if you want the best. Envy if you want the most stylish, Gluttony has the most versatile." I thank them and leave a coin on the counter in appreciation.

Every township in central city has the same basic layout.. that's going to make future travel and discovery much easier. I look at the time and see it's already 8pm. The day has flown by. I bring my clothes home. Make myself a quick snack and head back to Peaches place early as she requested. I could use a little happy before I start working for Alastor..
