Morningstar Of Sin

Chapter 31 - Agent Romanoff

"You can call me Agent Romanoff, from the Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division also known as S.H.I.E.L.D. I'm here to talk to you about the avengers initiative." The woman now known as Romanoff says with a serious expression.

"Ah, from the agency that Coulson comes from. Tell me, has he decided to accept my offer yet? I am running low on knights at the moment, humans are fickle things." I say leaning onto the counter.

Her eye twitches and she lets out a long sigh as she mutters under her breath. "Why did I get the delusional one?" She quickly regains her composure "Agent Coulson is currently happy where he is at and won't be working for you anytime soon."

I roll my eyes "I guess I must wait for him to be run through, then. Everyone accepts the deal on their deathbed."

Seeing her look at me like watching a psychopath I smile "Sorry, what is it you came here for again Agent Romanoff? Something about an initiative?"

She returns to her serious face as she speaks "The Avengers Initiative. It will be a group of extraordinary people working together to defend the world. We want you to be a part of it, you would still keep your autonomy but you would need to come when called on."

I give a smirk "If I didn't already have a contract in the works I would offer the world for your body. What a shame. I'm sorry but as interesting as that sounds I don't wish to mingle with a group of mortals who believe themselves some type of guardians. Perhaps when I seal my contract with the Sorceress I will make use of you. Tell me agent, have you ever thought of selling yourself for power."

She smiles but I can tell she is worked up from my words. "Never, not once. Mr. Morningstar, I will need you to take this seriously. We are creating a team of the most powerful being humankind can offer."

I smile at her slightly angry tone, "Let's make this easy shall we." I use the power of Greed as I speak "What is it you d.e.s.i.r.e?"

She looks at me with a sadness in her eyes that I did not expect. "I want to be able to have a family. I want what was taken from me. I want a child." Her voice quivers at the last sentence as tears begin to fall.

She looks at me in shock as she realizes what happened. The chair falls over as she backs away pulling out her gun pointing it at me. Her other hand wipes away the tears still wetting her cheeks.

"What did you do to me?" Her voice distressed.

I give my usual smirk "I didn't do anything, just got you to tell the truth. Now if you want to do more I am always welcoming."

Her anger rises more "F.u.c.k this," She tosses me a phone "Use this burner, the only number on it is the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., call him if you change your mind."

She turns around to walk out but I teleport in front of her with my wings spread wide. "Why don't we make a deal. I'll give you what you want and you give me what I want. Your skills in stealth also impress me, I'm sure if I was a human there is no way I would have found you."

Her astonishment from my wings fades as she rolls her still puffy eyes "Don't play with me like that, I will shoot you."

I open my arms wide "Please, do it. Shoot me. Prove it to yourself."

She looks at me funny "I'm not going to shoot you."

"I insist."

She sighs and without hesitation shoots my knee cap. My grin grows wide "Cruel I like it. If I was human I would be crippled."

Her eyes narrow "So you have durability as well, so what?"

My horns grow and my crown blazes to life as my face drops. "Woman, you're starting to annoy me. I am the Devil, I CAN HEAL YOU. Do you not understand me?"

She backs away seeing my horns and blazing crown. "If you are the Devil, why would I believe you'll heal me without some tricks."

"Because I want you. I can't have you wholely on a relationship founded on lies. Ask my other woman, she is entirely human as well, and I kept my end of the bargain." I go back to my smile.

"And what's to say you aren't manipulating her? Also, why would I want to be just another one of your women." She gives me a scrupulous look.

My eyes scan her body slowly. "All of my women are going to be great figures in this world, not to mention the most powerful beings to exist. Won't having a larger family be better, our children would be happiest with many brothers and sisters, am I wrong?"

Her eyes still look at me scrupulously causing me to sigh. I hold out my hand to her and in a roll of fire, a contract appears. "Here, look over this, if the terms are poor you can ask me to revise it."

She grabs the parchment and starts reading and her eyebrows raise as she reads. "I don't know… if you really ar-"

I hold up my hand to cut her off "You can take the contract with you and think it over. You know where I stay if you need anything you can seek me out. I'll do you one favor free of charge."

She glares at me with a complex gaze "I'll think it over." She quickly walks past me and clicks the elevator button." The elevator dings and reveals Jessica standing there with a skimpy bra on and short shorts.

Jessica glares hard at Agent Romanoff as they walk past each other.

When the elevator leaves Jessica puts her arms around my neck and whispers in my ear. "Is that a new wife?"

I smile and wrap my arms around her. "Not yet but she will be, do you like her? She is quite beautiful… and flexible."

She kisses my neck as she speaks between breaths. "She. Will. Be. Fun."

I grin wide as I pick her up and bring her to the bedroom.
