Chapter 7 - Devil's Incarnate

Dante and Isabelle had gotten into his house and Isabelle had gladly made herself at home.

"Soooo, how's life been? It's been a long time since I saw you."

"You've been gone for a week," Dante replied.

"Yes, but it feels like years," his sister said

"Nothing's happened," Dante said flatly.

"Nothing?" his sister pressed, raising an eyebrow.

"Yes, nothing,"

"Well, since you don't have anything to tell me, I have a lot to tell you," Isabelle said with a grin.

Dante sighed and braced himself mentally; this was going to be a long night.

Two hours later

Dante was working on something in his living room, while Isabelle was making herself dinner in his kitchen. Isabelle having finished having the discussion with Dante, had decided to fix herself dinner.

A loud thud was heard which caught Dante's attention.

" Isabelle,are you okay?" Dante had gotten up swiftly and went to Isabelle to check what was wrong.

" I am fine, I just mistakenly dropped a pan. But, I dogged quickly so it didn't hit me."

" Okay."

" Hmm so you do care about me."

" Don't take it personal, I just don't want mum to waste her time worrying over you."

" I love you too baby."

Dante ignored her and was about to go, when he saw what Isabelle was trying to cook.

" Isabelle, what are you cooking?"

" Alfredo pasta!" Isabelle replied with delight

" No."

" Why!?"

" Because, I don't want my house burnt down."

" You don't have to worry, I can cook."

" You can barely fry eggs and you want to cook Alfredo pasta."

" Please, okay just taste the sauce."

" No."

" Why!?"

" Because, I don't want to end up in the hospital."

" Please!" Isabelle said with puppy eyes.

Dante sighed and decided to taste it. He tasted it and stared at Isabelle. Isabelle was happy and was about to celebrate, when she saw Dante walk to the fridge to get milk. He took a glass and filled it up. He drank all the milk from the glass without wasting a drop.

" Is it that bad?"

" What do you think?"

" Well I will try aga-."

" No, untill you die,don't ever touch a pot."

" That was harsh." Isabelle said with a bit of sadness.

"..." Dante,not replying and ignoring her

" Dante!" A voice shouted, Isabelle and Dante turned back to look after they realized it was not Isabelle.

" Oh it's you." The Devil's Incarnate, Isabelle completed in her mind after seeing the person.

" Oh, good evening Isabelle." The person greeted with a tinge of indifference while walking in a sensual manner.

" Dante, you were not picking my calls so I decided to come see you." The woman said care and concern.

"...." Dante

" Well, I don't like being in spaces with irrelevant people so I am out of here." Isabelle said out loud then went upstairs.

The woman was happy that Isabelle was finally leaving even though she insulted her, but looked annoyed when she saw Isabelle go upstairs.

" Dante, I missed you."

" What do you want?"

" Well I missed you so I came to see you."

"....."

" I was worried about you."

" ....."

" Dante, it's me, Victoria."

" No shit I have eyes." Dante said then went back to work with his glasses.

" Does Isabelle live with you."

" Does it look like it?"

" No, I am sorry, it was because she went upstairs. Does she usually sleep in your house."

" She sleeps anywhere she wants."

" Including your house?, and you don't do anything about it?"

"....."

" Dante, I am talking to you."

"..."

" I put in lot of effort to please you, I visit you almost everyday, what more do you want?" Victoria says with fake sadness as she looks at him but get annoyed when she notices his expression.

" Dante? Are you even listening to me?"

" You were talking?" Dante says absentmindedly.

" Dante what is your problem!?" Victoria yells out of anger."

" Victoria, leave me the fuck alone. Unlike you, some of us have meaningful things to do."

Victoria kept quiet after hearing what Dante said. She felt hurt hearing Dante say that. She didn't possibly know what was wrong, considering no man had ever dismissed her like this before. She was attractive,rich and famous what more did he want? Was she attractive to him? They had been together for a while and they had not...

" Dante, we have been seeing each other for some time now and you haven't even touched me."

Dante ignored

" Dante!? Why are you ignoring my needs!?"

Dante sighed and picked up his phone and texted someone a message.

Victoria on hearing her a "ding" from her phone, picked it up and saw a text from him. Why was he sending a text message? Or he just did not want to say his feelings out loud?

Victoria opened the chat and saw an address.

Blues Clues

Lower Manhattan

26 Street, Building 50

" What is this?" Victoria asked in surprise after seeing that of all things, Dante sent her an address.

" It's a private sex club."

" What!?" Did he want them to go together? If that was what he wanted, why didn't he just say.

" You said you had needs right? Fulfill your needs there." Dante said, still typing on his computer.

Victoria clenched her fists in anger and was about to yell when she heard a thud. Someone had just closed the fridge, which grabbed Dante and Victoria's attention which made them turn around.

Isabelle had kept her hair in a bun, with a mask on her face while wearing a tank top and bottoms. She had her phone in one hand and a bag of chips which had chicken and inside.

Isabelle stared back in shock when she realized that she had been caught. Dante in seeing it was Isabelle turned back to what he was doing. Victoria on the other hand, was not quite happy to see Isabelle and clenched her fists again.

" Oh don't mind me lovely couple, just getting a quick night snack." Isabelle was about to leave when she was confronted by Victoria.

" Don't you have your own place!? Don't you think you might be disturbing your brother while he's working!?" Victoria said with annoyance.

" I have been here for since Adam and he has nevermind complained. He probably even likes me here." Isabelle said while putting a chip in her mouth.

" No he does not." Victoria said with scoff

" Yes I do." Dante said out of the blue, which made Victoria more agigated.

Isabelle gave a silly face and stared at her provoke her more.

" I am leaving." Victoria said,thinking Dante would stop her but was disappointed when she saw that he didn't say anything.

" Don't go, it's late, since you definitely came in your own, before I and Dante get accused of murder.

Victoria rolled her eyes.

" Dante where do you want me to sleep?" Victoria called out wittily.

" I don't care Victoria, it could even be on the kitchen counter for all I fucking care,just fix yourself somewhere and stop bothering everyone." Dante said with a sigh while carrying his laptop.

Isabelle laughed but kept quiet when she saw the glare Victoria gave her.

Isabelle sighed and made her way upstairs while her brother followed suit. Victoria followed him and entered his room with him. The door shut with a not so loud thud which made the mansion go in to quiet trance.
