Synopsis
No ritual. No warning. No escape. Now there’s are devils living within his soul— one commenting on his choices, offering terrible advice, and the other occasionally trying to take the wheel. Hunters want him dead. Demons want him useful. And Drex just wants five minutes of peace without voices in his head. Unfortunately, the devil has other plans. Dragged into a war of contracts, devils and increasingly questionable life decisions, Drex must survive a world where every power-up comes with a catch, every ally is suspicious, and his own body may or may not betray him at the worst possible moment. In a world where flesh breaks, shadows think, and possession is a management problem, Drex learns one painful truth: Being possessed isn’t the worst part. Sharing control is.

Chapter 1 - The Beginning

No POV:

It was barely the crack of dawn. The light barely passing through the curtains. There was a certain someone who was already awake before then; his black hair gently spread over his face; his brown colored eyes darting to every corner of the room in which he lay... For any other person, they would be worrying of a devil bursting through the window but for Drex, he couldn't care less a lot has been on his mind lately and he didn't have time to be worrying about something like that.. He checked his clock and saw that the time was 5:28am. With a sigh he got up in order to get ready for school. After doing his morning routine, he went down stairs to where his aunt and uncle were already at the dining table waiting for him in order to have breakfast...

Drex POV:

I walked down the stairs taking one step after the other slowly reaching the dining room. When i saw my aunt and uncle, i glanced at my phone and saw that the time was already 6:19am. Realizing i spent almost one hour in my room, I quickly went to the table and greeted them.

" Good morning Drex how was your night"

I just shrugged...

His uncle spoke up. "Well am glad you're doing better.. Your aunt and I would be coming back from work early today thats why we're up early"

"Ohh ok...."

Nothing much happened after that we just ate in silence for about 15 minutes... I had alot to do in school today so I hurriedly ate the rest of my breakfast and walked over to the door.

Standing up to leave i turned to them "Uhmm i'll get going now thanks for breakfast"

"You're welcome dear see you soon."

That was all I heard as I closed the door with a sigh and walked off to school, somewhat prepared for another boring and normal day...
