"Because you are mine, aren't you, little angel?" He whispered whilst pulling me to him. "So possessive." I whispered to him, making him grin. Lust races through my body and I think Adrian was cheating a little bit with his essence. "Don't tell anyone." He sinisterly said. Before I knew what was happening, my leggings disappeared and I was pulled flush against him. "Adrian!" I loudly shouted. "What?" He innocently replied, trying to look down at my lower body. "I missed my favourite human body part. Let me indulge." He spoke, still trying to look down while I tried to cover myself with his long shirt. "My vagina is your favourite body part?" I asked with mock anger whilst giving him a hard pinch on his chest. "Hmmm, I have a few. That ass of yours is one I would like to explore, I haven't had a lot of interaction with it, let me bite into it again. And don't let me started on those soft pink nipples, of course overall your b-" "I get it." I quickly talked over him since my face was
Right when I was about to whisper another thing to him, a loud knock on the door sounded. "ADRIAN!" Samael's loud voice made me visibly cringe back and as an automatic reaction, I pushed Adrian away, who held onto me tighter. "FUCK OFF!" He loudly yelled back to the door, before turning back to me. "Dove, don't. He will go away." He softly said at the same time that I pushed Adrian away from me firmer. "I won't!" Samael happily loudly shouted behind the door. "SAM, I WILL RIP YOUR HEAD OFF. GET LOST." Adrian roared loudly, finally putting me down with a huff but holding onto me nonetheless. "Our Queens have arrived." Samael spoke. I froze. The queens. I looked up at Adrian with big eyes, who stared down at me with a painful expression. Panic constricted my heart painfully. The air disappeared from my lungs and I tried to breathe, but less air was going to my body. "Dove." Adrian whispered. My vision blurred and only came back when Adrian cupped my face with two hands and stared
The world stopped spinning. The words that came out of Adrian's mouth were not true. They couldn't be. For the second time today, I felt a panic attack coming. I was shocked to my core. All I could do was stare at Adrian with disbelief. Did he seriously just suggest he wanted to marry me? Gasps were heard around me. "That's funny." Someone in the room said. "A human over a demon? Imagine." Someone else said. My eyes were still glued onto Adrian, who finally looked down at me nervously. He didn't speak and looked forward again. "Cut the crap, brother." Lucifer's voice snapped at him, making Adrian's face change into an angry one. "I think Adrian is very serious." Micah announced. I looked over at him and I'm sure he could see the panic in my eyes. "You can't marry a human." Benjamin stated, looking up and down at me with disgust. "Why not?" Adrian asked. He was getting agitated with the rest and stepped forward dangerously, shielding me from the shocked brothers. "Because we need so
"Uhm.." I mumbled. Think, Elle, fucking think. "Y-yes.. I.. They saw me, and I thought it was better to just act like Gabrielle. And they believed me." I half stuttered out. Shea looked at me shocked. "They believed you?" She questioned me with a disbelieving look. I nodded immediately. "Yes. I told them I had... a rare form of... dementia. Like short memory loss. Even Adr- the King believed me! He didn't know what to do with me, so I... I begged him to put me on the list of the potential queens." I explained. My heart was beating out of my chest. Would she believe me? Shea grabbed my wrist painfully tight. "You have been put on the list of potential queens?" She asked with sudden fury. My brain was working overtime to come up with a story. "Yes, well, the King thinks I will not survive. But I will prove him wrong." I said with a sly smile. Please believe me. She let me go and a smile entered her lips. Her brain was practically spelling out her thoughts. She also thought I woul
I'm not sure exactly what happened, but before I knew, I was standing in front of a huge fighting pit outside. My mind and heart stopped working as soon as Yroul announced the first challenge and everything was a daze after that. A fight to the death. I knew Samael thought of this challenge but come on, out of all the challenges you could possibly think of, a fight to the death was the one to make it through? And as the first challenge? Everybody moved outside to the fighting ring and everybody was already screaming. It reminded me of the fight between Adrian and Samael, only now I would be entering the ring. Again five others. The women of Pride were fighting but I was hardly present. The King's sat on the podium higher up, where they had a perfect view of the women. I heard the occasional shouts from them through the roars of the crowd but I couldn't look at them. I knew Adrian was up there, furious at me. "Hey, Briva." I whispered to the woman next to me. She slightly turned t
Niran came closer and closer to my face and she also realised I was helpless beneath her. "Elle." Someone whispered behind me. Someone pushed the hilt of steel in my hand. My hand automatically wrapped around it and I looked behind me to see an unfamiliar boy looking at me, before he dove back into the crowd like he was never there. I took my opportunity, jumped up and held the short sword against Niran's neck, who looked shocked to the core. I had her. Finally, She pointed her two knives at me with lightning speed but I was taller with my sword. She couldn't reach me, not if she wanted to be cut. And I was going to cut her like she was going to do with me. "STOP!" Yroul's shout shook me awake and I looked at the woman with a frown. But then I knew why she called for us to stop. There, in the middle of the fighting ring, was a dead Tia. There was no blood around her, but I knew she was dead. Her hollow eyes stared at nothing. Her body was still, lifeless. "The first challenge
I eyed the stick with a smile. I still felt horrible about what happened today. Someone died today. And more would probably follow. This competition started with 37 women and 6 already died. To marry a king. It was barbaric. But it was the world I lived in, and the best thing I could do now was to win this stupid competition. Because only then, I could at least try to make this world a little bit better. Humans were physically weak, yes, compared to demons. But we weren't weak mentally. And I would prove it. But maybe I should work on my physical strength a little bit. So with a loud shout, I ran towards Adrian with the stick and swung it right at his head. The stick stopped mid-air. Adrian had caught it with his hand. He looked at me with one raised eyebrow. "Work with your body, dove. When you swing with your arm, the strength has to come from your core muscles. You don't just hit me with your arm, but with your abs as well. It's more about movement than strength." Adrian explai
Mud covered me. It stuck to my hair, my clothes and my skin. I tried to extract myself from the mud several times, but Adrian wouldn't let me escape. I think he was still mad at me, and this was a little bit of revenge on his part. He wanted to be in control after feeling like he was losing it. When Adrian said I was going to feel it, he wasn't joking. He filled me up and made sure I felt every single inch of him that went inside me. His hands held me tight and he wasn't afraid to let me know he was the one in charge here. "Bri." He whispered in my ear as he put his arms around me. "You're not supposed to like it so rough." He whispered next with a grin. "Why?" I asked him with closed eyes. Everything that he was doing to me felt so right, even if I was covered in cold mud and I was on the ground of a forest with Dracula somewhere close by. Yes, his hold on me was tight and he was fucking me harder than normal, but his touches were still soft, careful, loving. He didn't release his
