Eleanor's p.o.v

We approached a huge black door that had symbols on it.

When we reached it, it opened by itself. I looked at the dark fairies and noticed how they were now standing still with their heads lowered to the ground.

"Aren't you going in with me?" I asked then shivered when a cold breeze swept by.

"No." They answered in a low tone as the breeze began getting unbearable.

I sighed softly then walked into the room which had a long passage. A few statues which looked like a lion with wings were lined up and the paintings on the walls were scribbling.

I ignored them and made a turn because it was the only turn around the passage.

A huge bed came into view. On the left side of the bed was a very huge pool and on the right was a big wardrobe and a desk.

I looked back at the bed covered in red silky sheets then swallowed hard.

Was the room mine?. No, that was impossible.

I took a few steps forward and noticed that near the wardrobe there was a door. I slowly moved to it an

    Ducan's p.o.vI was going out of my mind and it was all because of that damn human girl.Never has there been this much attempt on my life!. Every time I tried to let my guard down she went for the strike!.I wanted to kill her this time but the thought of my mother made me hold back. Her spirit to fight and hold on to her life and sanity was similar to that of my late mother. Although my mother was mocked and at times abused by a few demons, she still stood proud next to me and my father. She allowed no one to put her down and that fire was what made her unique and different from most humans. A heart that would never bow to those above but those it beat for. Such purity and loyalty was greatly admired.I groaned softly then threw the robe on the ground I had used to clean my face. I was still upset over everything."Since her arrival, I can't seem to fully calm down." I whispered to myself then sighed softly.I couldn't even maintain my human form because each time I was about to sh

    Eleanor's p.o.v I waited patiently for his answer. When he burst out in laughter startling me, I took a step back. No, that lord was reserved, there was no way he was the one. Was this another demon using his face to torture me!. "Are you sent here by the demon king to torture me by using my past memory?" I asked furiously. He stopped laughing then moved closer. "I don't know how you can see past the illusion I have created. Is it because you hold the favor of the gods?" He asked in a low tone, not making sense. "Answer me demon!" I yelled then flinched when my injury began to hurt badly. "I'm impressed that you can remember me after all those years." He said as I shook my head in denial. No way was he the one!. How was he not aging after all those years!. The only answer I could think of was that he was a demon. "You aren't human are you?" I asked in a low tone. "I am half demon and half human. My father was a demon while my mother was a human." He answered, shocking me.

    Ducan's p.o.v I walked out of the dungeon with the human girl in my arms. She was unconscious from the pain and healing energy I had used on her. Her words were still playing in my mind and I couldn't hold back from smiling. She had a chance to refuse both of my requests yet she accepted one. Was she that desperate to leave this territory?. She was even willing to search for the holy sword that was hard to find, if not impossible. When I walked into my room, I moved to the bed and carefully put her down. Her cheeks were still wet from the tears and she looked peaceful with her eyes closed. I moved my hand wiping off her tears before sitting down next to her. I hated humans so damn much and I didn't like her. The only reason she was back in my room was because I was very intrigued by her actions. She was rather stupid to believe me so easily just because I was half human and she had met me before in the past. If she was to find out who I truly was, she would make sure to never

    Eleanor's p.o.v I ran as quickly as I could, looking back a few times to make sure no one had seen and followed me. When the demon king left the room, I took it as my chance to run away. Although I knew nothing about the place, finding the border and exit wasn't going to be hard because a lot of warriors who tried to enter the demon kingdom found it easily. The only guilt I felt was because I went against the lord's suggestion and plan of helping me out. He was the only one that showed me kindness in that moment, sadly I did not trust him because he was still half demon. His loyalty lay to the demon king and I wasn't going to let him hand me over to him or even worse tell him my plans of escape. It was getting dark and hard to see but I could at least make out a few things around me. I wasn't going to stop or give up the way to my freedom. I was about to take another step when I fell with a loud scream. Fear washed through me as my heart picked up. I was going down. I was fal

    Eleanor's p.o.v "Here we are." Ducan whispered softly once we were at the palace entrance. "Aren't you going in with me?" I asked dumbly. "No. If the demon lord Sees me with you there is no telling what he would do to me." He answered then took a few steps back. I quickly turned and grabbed his hand. "When can I see you again?" I asked seriously. "Soon, just try not to run away again." He whispered then disappeared before I could say another word. I was startled by his disappearance but then again I remembered that he was a half demon so he had powers as well. I took in a deep breath and released it then walked past the entrance and kept on walking ahead. I had no idea where I was going because when I was running for my escape I paid no attention to the way or passages. "Excuse me." A male voice called from behind. I quickly turned and came face to face with a tall man. He had short black hair and brown eyes. "I still can't believe it's you, when I saw you walk into the pal

    Ducan's p.o.v I lay on my side watching Eleanor who was sitting on the floor with her legs crossed and her back towards me. She was muttering offensive words here and there such as ugly, stupid and fool which weirdly I found funny. "Do you usually talk to yourself?" I asked seriously. When a minute went by I smiled widely. Were all humans like her?. I wondered. "Master." Missy called softly outside the door. "Enter." I answered. Missy was a succubus who was unlike any other. While most took fun in having sexual intercourse with sleeping Humans, she preferred her own kind and that had an effect on her which made her look younger than her actual age. Also she was among a few who called me master. She was the one in charge of bringing me and whichever guests I had food and water. She walked in with a tray of food on each hand. "Bed or desk master?" She asked. "Bed and floor." I answered. She put the food on my bed carefully then went to the girl and put the tray next to her.

    Eleanor's p.o.v I closed my eyes upon calming down. A few minutes that felt like hours had gone by and I could still feel the burn hurting. The demon King's hatred and the way he wanted me dead scared me so much, but for a minute when he sat on the bed looking at me something felt different. And when he asked me if I usually spoke to myself I detected a friendly tone. In that moment thoughts of finding a way to kill him stopped. But now after going through such a phase yet again. I was so terrified for my life. Ducan was about to move when I tightened my grip on him. "Please don't leave me. He will rape me." I begged loudly as tears rolled on my cheeks. He sighed softly then grabbed my arms, removing them from around his neck. "Eleanor." He called softly as I looked at him through blurry eyes. "The demon king might have gone out of his chambers but that doesn't mean he won't return. What happens if he finds me holding his wife?" He asked, then tried to push me from his lap. "

    Missy's p.o.v"If I have been here for days, why aren't I hungry?" She asked, annoying me.She was acting like she had a smart mouth when she was sobbing like a damn coward a few minutes ago."You will with time." I answered as the water turned back to its normal color.She looked at the place where the bruise was then back at me.I gritted my teeth and tried hard to smile.If not for my master's orders I would have been far away from such a disgusting being. He strictly ordered me to pretend to be nice and I couldn't understand why.Not so long ago we hated the human race and wanted nothing to do with them!. Why was he acting differently?.I nearly lost my composure when he summoned me in a hurry.I couldn't have guessed it was all because of her, a human!.Looking at her closely she wasn't beautiful and her body wasn't all that!.I was more beautiful, sexy, appealing and powerful.Why wouldn't he look at me!.No matter what I did and how much I tried to seduce him he brushed me off!

    Eleanor's p.o.v "No running in the passage!" I said loudly to my kids. They giggled and ran ahead completely ignoring me. "They sure are stubborn," Iris whispered. "Yes, they really are," I answered with a smile. My son who was the oldest (eight years old) looked very much like his father. He also had two forms, one a dragon and the other one human. He was mostly with his father because he loved magic and learning new things. My young daughter who was five years old was an angel. She was usually quiet, and she was very skilled in archery. At first, I was very concerned about that, but Iris assured me that most demons began training at a very young age. I felt confused because there was never a day she showed her demon form, so I had assumed she was only human but Iris was so sure she too had a demon form. According to her, her powers would show any year or day, so I paid no attention to that because the most important thing was that I loved them no matter what. "So my son is rea

    (Ten years later) Clair's p.o.v "General," Charity called, snapping me out of my thoughts. "Yes," I answered calmly. "The queen has agreed to your request, and I was sent to report to you directly." She said in my office. "Thank you, captain, that's great news," I answered with a smile then looked at the future plans I had written in the scrolls on the desk. Life wasn't the same after ten years had gone by. Everything was different for us. When we decided to go back home, it wasn't because we missed our land. It was because we wanted to say goodbye to the ones we cared for and loved. Those were our siblings and parents. The other thing we wanted to do was to overthrow and kill the priests and elders that were against the demon kingdom and that's exactly what we did. The humans hated the demons and that was because of them. Every chance they had they poisoned our minds. As long as we would have stayed in the demon kingdom nothing would have changed, so we decided to go back. The

    Oni's p.o.v "Me," Zara answered as I gasped loudly. Iris looked at him in disbelief. Her grasp on her staff tightened. "It was nice being a part of this beautiful kingdom. Its power, people, and everything were beyond what my mind imagined. You demon king you were kind enough to not kill us all, and I found love with one of the most powerful women in all territories. As much as I would love to stay, I can't. My parents aren't getting any younger and I never said goodbye to them, so they must be depressed over my disappearance. Also, I am the next chief in line because I'm their only male child. If I wasn't, I would have gladly stayed. Sadly I can't turn a blind eye to my people, not after all that I have learned." He said seriously. "In that case, come closer," Master said as Zara slowly did. Master raised his hand and pressed it on his head. I watched as Zara slowly began to revert to his previous young self. When he looked at his hands he quickly looked at Iris who lowered her

    Oni's p.o.v We all stood looking at the burning bodies of the dead warriors quietly. It was so sad for us all to say goodbye because they were our friends. I held Charity's hand and glanced at her to see if she was okay. Since Ose's words that day, I was very considerate towards her. That day I rushed back to hug her and tell her how happy I was that she was alive, was the day we got closer. At first, she froze looking at me seriously before breaking down like a baby. I never knew simple words would mean so much. I moved and embraced her without a word. We didn't need to talk in that moment of bliss. Since then, we were acting like lovers, and it was because we both had this understanding between us, and we were very fond of each other. My only wish and hope were that we would soon fall in love with each other and be together for as long as we can. "All the warriors and generals report to me in the throne room at once." My master said loudly then disappeared with the queen from

    Ose's p.o.v"You are safe now, you can all go back," I said happily to the elderly who were at the entrance of the maze.Luckily they were all safe and protected well.The grounds were clean from blood because of a spell Iris had cast and everything was back to normal.We had lost a few of our warriors and most of the creatures, which was sad.The ritual to help them (the dead) cross to the afterlife was going to be held by Ducan in the next two days, for now, we didn't want to disturb him. Iris, Oni, and I were overlooking everything and for hours we couldn't rest or see our lovers."Are you done with what you are doing?" Iris asked behind me.I turned and looked at her with a wide smile."Yes," I answered, then took a step closer."I still can't believe how easy it was for us to win the war," I said softly.She laughed then moved her hand to my shoulder."It was easy because we were united and had each other's back." She answered."Yeah, you are right. Are you done with what you wer

    Eleanor's p.o.v"Stop it, that's dirty," I whispered in a labored breath.I was leaning against my elbows looking down on Ducan between my parted legs with sweat running down my forehead."What's dirty? You mean this?" He asked, then thrust his tongue into my wetness roughly.I threw my head back and screamed out his name in a voice that was unlike my own.What was this sensation I was feeling, it was new to me, yet it made me excited.His tongue was slightly painful, yet it was giving me so much pleasure. I wanted him to keep doing that, so he could satisfy this growing need I was feeling."My heart, you don't want me to stop do you?." He asked huskily.I bit my lower lip refusing to answer him. It was embarrassing to voice out my true thoughts.I was a virgin, yet I was acting like some indecent lady who had experience in doing this."What if he loses his interest in knowing that I did want him to continue?". That thought was making me uncomfortable.I sighed heavily, hearing the so

    Eleanor's p.o.v The V formation was brilliant because the human warriors were trapped between the demon warriors, the generals, warriors, and creatures. I stood next to Iris watching everyone fight because I couldn't move. I wanted to help out in any way, but she couldn't let me. My feet were stuck to the ground by her binding spell and she looked relieved over that. Her defense was that she was only doing her job by keeping me safe. At first, I was furious with her and I kept on screaming at her for quite some time. But when she completely ignored me I gave up and decided to just stay put. I smiled when my gaze went to the female warriors who had formed a straight line fighting the male warriors seriously. Behind them were the generals covering their backs and making sure they were safe Ose was using his demon form, the gigantic python that was fast in striking down the human warriors with its tail. Each blow he made was fatal and deadly to them. I looked at Oni and noticed that

    Hero's p.o.v I quickly got off the horse in shock looking at the lifeless, headless bodies on the ground. In front of me was a pool of blood of the village warriors. Richie stood with his hand wrapped around his waist like he was in pain. I angrily matched where he was and grabbed him by the neck. "Who did this!" I asked at the top of my voice. He coughed then dropped his sword and grabbed my hand removing it from his neck. "That stupid whore did this!" He answered furiously. This was the first time I was hearing him curse right in front of me. He was very angry that I could see. "Are you telling me that only one woman did all this to our warriors?" I asked in disbelief. "Yes sir. It is hard to believe, but it was a woman. Not only was she strong, but she also used dark magic." He reported. I tightened my grip on my sword and then patted his shoulder with my free hand. "I don't care how strong she is, I'm taking her down," I whispered then walked ahead leaving him in JD's ca

    Iris's p.o.v I stood with Zara next to me right on the road that led to the palace, waiting for the human warriors to come into view. My job was simple, to protect the blessed maiden as my master had asked me to, but that didn't mean I couldn't destroy the first group of warriors. I felt stronger than I had ever been. My master was against the idea of me standing on the road because he didn't want anything harmful to come my way. I had to beg to finally have his approval. The creatures of the dark were outside the kingdom hiding in the trees and woods waiting to be summoned by me to attack the human warriors. What I first wanted was to have all the warriors come forth. After that, the creatures would go and stand at the entrance to take down any human warrior who would try to retreat from our kingdom. I closed my eyes feeling the vibration of the ground. They were approaching by horse, not foot, but the vibration wasn't strong which meant the warriors weren't all that. "Get read
