I blinked my eyes, squinting them instantly at the harsh lighting on my face. When I looked around the room my eyes wide under the unfamiliar walls. It took me a few seconds to get the sleep out of my eyes. I winced as I tried to sit up, my head throbbing.
"Where am I?" I mumbled to myself, my eyes focused on my hands. They were slightly trembling. What was happening to me?
I glanced around the room, trying to figure out where I was. The last thing I remember I was waiting on my couch and grumbling about Mira being late. How did I walk out of my apartment without my knowledge?
As I squinted my eyes at the window a low gasp slipped my lips. There was a huge water body beyond the window, surrounded by trees everywhere. I pushed the covers off my body and trudged towards the gallery
It was not possible. I thought to myself while staring at Lukas. Why would he abduct me after leaving the very next day? My hands were shaking as I lost my footing, trying to hold steady on my feet. The need to get out of there was intensifying.Seeing his face after trying to forget it was difficult. No wonder that he send someone to abduct me in that way. He knew my address. I should have connected the dots earlier it would have saved me a lot of shocks.Taking a deep breath I looked around, "Why am I here?"His face tightened as he sat on the couch opposite me. The silence in the room was deafening and made me hear every little sound, like the clock ticking, the wind blowing past us and creaking of the door."Because there is something important you need to know"&
/Lukas POV/"Thanks again Lukas" She smiled, her eyes twinkling. For a flash second, they seemed familiar. Too familiar but I shook my head. I must be imagining things again. She seemed out of place and I had never seen her in the club before so there is no way for us to have met."It is alright" I grind my teeth together, my eyes into slits as I tried to find that creep. How dare he try to do something like that? Humans are not aware that the actions like these are the reason they wind up in hell. And then they cry and regret while being tortured. Silly creatures really. They commit sin and expect not to be punished for that."I am so sorry for the boyfriend thing. I just thought that he would back off after hearing that"There we
I refused to cry no matter what. There were so many things going wrong and unpredictable but I still refused to cry. Not because it was a sign of weakness but because I was tired of feeling like I couldn't do anything. If Lukas wanted to be an asshole then so be it. I can find my way out of the hell hole all by myself.When I went back to my room I realised that the sea view outside the window was artificial, something created by the demon himself to make the place look lively. Ironic actually. But that did not stop me from sitting on the ledge of the gallery and admiring the view.Even though I was allowed to explore the huge mansion I was stuck in my room. There was a strong possibility of seeing Lukas outside which would make me angry enough to resort to punching. He could have explained it better, instead of making me feel like I was just some useless creat
A huge sigh of relief slipped out of my lips the moment I found out the baby was safe. There was nothing more I was invested in than my baby and the health of my child. It's so weird feeling that I cannot explain but the thought of something happening made me dizzy with fear. A sense of protection and affection developed over the fetus in my stomach. It did not matter that it was the result of a one-night stand and not something I had planned. The only thing I care about was looking after the health of the baby.From past these days while I was locked up in my room the only thing I did besides read talked to my stomach. It gave me some kind of relief just knowing that someone was hearing me. Someone who would look exactly like me.Lukas's eyes were red. The moment I sat down on the couch they turned red. Bright red with black at the edges. I had never seen someone wi
My eyes widened at Kira's words. What did she mean by Demon Kings Mate? As much as I was aware no one mention that detail to me before. Laurens's eyes were the size of a saucer at that and she bowed down in front of me."What are you doing?" I asked her, my voice hoarse. My head turned towards Kira, trying to make sense. I needed to know if whatever she said was true. Was there something Lukas was hiding from me?"Bowing to the future Queen" Lauren made a funny face as she pulled back and straightened her back. I shook my head at her. Nuh-uh I was not the future Queen. Atleast I hoped I was not.The thought of being near souls made me shiver in fear. Is that what everyone was thinking? That I was going to rule beside Lukas? How can it be possible when he hates me and the only reason he kidnapped me was for his child?
/Lukas POV/I could feel that something was different from the moment I woke up. Sleep was something that never came easy, with demons being powerful at night but I still tried. After a while, it proved to be useless so I took out my favourite Dante Rosetti collection. There was just something about the way he writes that always fascinated me. After reading the love letter sonnet I managed to close my eyes for a few hours.As soon as I stepped down the stairs I noticed her. It was impossible not to. In a room full of people my eyes always found, just like they did at the club. Straightening my jacket I stepped down with poise."My lord" The lower demons bowed me, waiting by the stairs. I barely gave them a glance, my attention solely focused on her as she was standing along with everyone. 
As soon as Lukas left the dining hall I fell back against the wall. My cheeks burned at how easy I was affected by the closeness. I gritted my teeth to remind myself that he was Demon King and I should not feel any kind of attraction towards someone like him.Shaking my head I slowly walked back to the table, noticing Lauren's eyes on me."Do you have a death wish?""Huh?" I asked, lifting up my fork."Why did you do that? He's our King" Lauren clenched her jaw, her eyes glaring at me. I pressed my lips together at her tone."Exactly he's your King. Not mine. I don't care"Dean who had been quiet for a while cleared his throat. My eyes flew toward him.
"What?" Lukas blinked at me several times. My cheeks reddened at his stare and I realised how silly I sounded for crossing the bridge and coming all the way from mansion just for a phone. No wonder demons were staring at me. Maybe they knew how stupid I was.I rubbed my neck awkwardly at all the stares directed at me. Should I just ask him and get it done with? What if he laughs at me in front of everyone?"Do you all work here to stare at Miss Talia?" Lukas voice boomed throughout the hall and the demons scrambled out, their eyes away from me. I let out a huge breath I did not realise I was holding."You want a phone?"I hummed, my cheeks still red, "I want to talk to my friends. Mira and Jackson,

It took me an entire day in my room to realise how my life had turned into some book—a book without a happy ending.Zeus is my father and his wife wants me dead, not only that but Li Changying hates me and is helping Hera with her plans. Now that I thought it out loud, I felt my head spin. Lukas was missing, and I had no idea of him, which made it even worse.My "father" respected my wish and left me alone for an entire day. I was hopeful that I could also convince him to let me go to Lukas. There has to be a reason he bought me to his place. My heart gripped in fear as I thought about those shadows. Who might have sent them to attack us? Did Zeus do that? I should ask him.The door of my room was suddenly pushed open, and I sat up, brushing the loose strands of hair away from my
imp announcement at the end/Lukas POV/The fog around me was almost nauseating. I couldn't breathe through my nose anymore. My energy was being drained from my body as I was still bound in shackles. A whimper escaped my lips as I tried to move my hand. They were tightly bound. What was Jaxon's plan? Why was he keeping me in the darkest place I had ever seen? My dungeons in hell are far more luxurious than the rat hole I was in.There was no clock anywhere, so I had no way of knowing the exact time. However, there was a tiny glass window, and from there, I could tell that it has been two days. Two agonisingly slow days. No one came to see me. The sound of rats was the only thing I could hear. I tried to break free several times, but it only resulted in cutting my wrist even deeper.&nbs
I blinked several times at the family portrait in front of me. I was Zeus, daughter! How was that possible? My hand automatically moved towards my face, touching my cheeks to make sure that I was real. The image staring back at me looked exactly like me. My breathing became shallow as I moved back."No!" I croaked, shaking my head."It-It must be a...a mistake! That's-" "-not possible! No!" My legs crashed against the wall behind me as I tried to find a place. Zeus was by my side, holding on go my arm and making me steady."Breathe prinkipissa. You can't stress out like this with a more in your belly." He softly whispered, stroking my arm. We moved back until there was a platform for me to sit.The moment I sa
I blinked at Zeus. Was he for real? Lukas was somewhere far away while I was trapped in an unknown place with no means to escape. How would anyone feel in my situation?“How am I feeling?” I echoed his question, trying hard not to do something impulsive like punch his face. He is a God of Thunder for crying out loud. That will be the last of me if I attempt to harm him in any way.Zeus softly hummed, tilting his head to meet my eyes. “I know that Ingrid can cause headaches. He is too powerful for your human body.”“Why am I here?! Where is Lukas? Did he ask you to bring me here?” I questioned, hope brimming in my eyes.“You are all alone here. Ingrid bought
My grip tightened on the dagger, the cold metal burning through my skin. If someone had said that I would be battling the Inferus in the middle of the night with no army, I would have laughed at their faces. There was no way we were going to emerge victoriously. It was four of us versus them. That didn’t deter me because all I could think was keeping them away from Talia till she gets on the other side of the portal.As I murmured a silent chant in the air, a sharp metallic dagger appeared in my hand. I sliced the wind through the dagger, admiring the sharp silver blade winking at me. The dagger was sort of my gift for a job well done, something I got right after fighting the previous King of the throne. It can kill any demonic spirit, even the faceless shadows, but they did not die easy.The Inferus
There was darkness everywhere, almost pitch black. Lukas tightened his grip around my wrist, a loud breath escaping his mouth. We couldn’t walk out from there because the door was sealed. Who would do that? I opened my mouth to say something but halted midway when I saw them.A faceless army appeared in front of the door, silver swords in their hand which was crossed against their chest. They were like five of them, standing in a row. I squinted my eyes to take a better look at them, but all I could see was a faceless dark fog and baggy red robes.Fear gripped me; my hands suddenly clammy as I looked at them. My throat felt dry all of a sudden, and it took me a lot of effort to pull my eyes away from their gaze.“The Inferus” Lukas breathed, his hands clenching into fists by the side.
I parted my mouth open as Lukas sat on his knees. My hands immediately flew towards my mouth, slapping over it. Was he going to propose to me? But it was too soon. We did not go through the entire courting thing yet or whatever that is.“I want you to accept my pin.”I blinked at that. My eyes immediately fell on the shiny crystal object he was holding in his hand. It was a brooch with a huge black stud surrounded by tiny diamonds. The light from it was almost blinding. Was that his pin?“Uhh...your pin?”He nodded his head, meeting my eyes, “Consider this my promise. With this pin, I vow to protect you and our baby no matter what. You both will always come first and be my priority. Last few days have been t
