Forced Marriage with The Devil Shadows of War
The council chamber was alive with tension. Maps and scrolls covered the long oak table, and the air was thick with the murmurs of Damon’s generals as they discussed strategy. Hazel sat at the far end, her hands folded tightly in her lap as she listened.“We can’t defend every border,” one of the generals said, his voice sharp. “The Order of the Veil strikes in the shadows. We’d spread ourselves too thin.”Damon stood at the head of the table, his dark presence commanding the room. “We’re not defending every border,” he said firmly. “We’ll draw them out. Make them think they have the upper hand.”Hazel frowned, leaning forward. “You’re talking about using bait.”Damon’s eyes flicked to hers, his expression unreadable. “Yes.”“And who’s the bait?” Hazel demanded, though she already knew the answer.A heavy silence fell over the room. Finally, Damon spoke, his voice low but resolute. “Me.”Hazel rose from her chair, her pulse quickening. “No. Absolutely not.”Damon’s gaze darkened. “Thi

The morning air was damp and heavy as Hazel adjusted her cloak against the chill. The eastern outpost loomed ahead, but the road was eerily quiet. The usual hum of birdsong was absent, replaced only by the soft crunch of hooves on the dirt path.Damon rode beside her, his expression unreadable. His hand hovered near the hilt of his sword, his eyes scanning the forest on either side of them. The tension in his body was palpable, and Hazel knew better than to disturb him when he was like this.But she couldn’t stay silent forever. The pendant tucked beneath her tunic seemed to hum against her skin, its faint warmth a constant reminder of her growing connection to the prophecy.“You’ve been quiet,” she said finally, her voice soft.Damon didn’t look at her. “I’m thinking.”“About what?”His jaw tightened, and for a moment, she thought he might not answer. But then he said, “About what we’ll find at the outpost.”Hazel frowned, her stomach twisting. “You think it’ll be worse than the vill

The castle’s stone towers rose in the distance as Hazel and Damon galloped through the forest, their horses kicking up dirt with every pounding hoof. The urgency of the messenger’s warning echoed in Hazel’s ears. Another attack—this time dangerously close to home.Damon rode ahead, his dark cloak billowing behind him. The tension radiating from him was palpable, and Hazel couldn’t shake the growing sense of dread in her chest.As they crossed the castle gates, the scene that greeted them was one of chaos. Soldiers rushed about, the air thick with shouts and the metallic scent of blood. Fires burned in small patches across the courtyard, casting flickering shadows over the stone walls.Hazel dismounted quickly, her boots hitting the ground with a thud as she scanned the area. “What happened?” she demanded, grabbing the arm of a nearby soldier.The man’s face was pale, his voice trembling as he spoke. “They came out of nowhere—shadows moving like smoke. We fought them off, but… they lef

The silence in the castle was deafening after the attack. Hazel stood in the west wing’s corridor, her fingers clutching the pendant beneath her tunic. The scorch mark where the intruder had vanished was still fresh, its edges blackened against the stone floor.Damon stood nearby, barking orders to the guards. His voice was sharp, his presence commanding, but Hazel could see the tension in the way his shoulders were set, the barely restrained fury in his movements.“How did he get in?” Damon demanded, his dark eyes scanning the assembled guards.A young soldier stepped forward, his face pale. “We… we’re not sure, my lord. The wards were intact when we checked them this morning.”“Then someone let him in,” Damon growled, his voice low and dangerous. “Find out who.”Hazel’s heart sank as she looked around the room. The guards exchanged uneasy glances, their fear palpable. The idea of a traitor within the castle walls sent a chill down her spine.---Back in the council chamber, Damon pa

The castle was no longer the safe haven it once was. Hazel felt it in every shadow that stretched across the walls, in the uneasy glances exchanged by the guards, and in the way Damon paced the great hall, his fists clenched at his sides.“They’re testing us,” Damon said, his voice low and filled with restrained fury. “Pushing to see how far they can get before we crumble.”Hazel stood near the hearth, her fingers lightly brushing the pendant beneath her tunic. Its faint hum had grown stronger since the attack, as if responding to the tension that hung in the air. “And what happens if we don’t stop them?”Damon turned to her, his dark eyes blazing. “We will stop them,” he said firmly. “I’ll make sure of it.”His words were meant to reassure her, but Hazel couldn’t shake the dread coiling in her chest. The Order’s reach was growing, their methods more insidious with each attack. And now, with the discovery of a traitor within the castle walls, trust was a fragile thing.---That evenin

The great hall was silent, save for the heavy breathing of those gathered. Damon stood at the head of the room, his presence as imposing as the storm that raged outside. The castle’s staff and guards lined the walls, their faces pale as they waited for his next words.“Someone in this castle betrayed us,” Damon began, his voice cold and sharp. “You allowed the Order to infiltrate these walls, to threaten my people and my queen.”His words sent a ripple of unease through the crowd. Hazel stood nearby, her hand resting lightly on the pendant beneath her tunic. It was warm against her skin, its hum faint but insistent—a constant reminder of the danger that loomed over them.Damon’s gaze swept across the room, dark and unforgiving. “We will find the traitor. And when we do, there will be no mercy.”---The interrogation began immediately. Guards questioned every servant, soldier, and advisor, their voices low but firm as they searched for answers. Hazel watched from the shadows, her mind

The aftermath of the traitor’s escape lingered like a storm cloud over the castle. Hazel sat in the council room, her fingers brushing the edge of the pendant as she replayed the man’s words in her mind: The queen will fall, and the king will break.Damon stood at the head of the table, speaking with his most trusted guards. His voice was low and firm, his eyes blazing with determination. “Seal every entrance. Double the patrols. No one enters or leaves without my approval.”The guards nodded, their armor clinking as they hurried from the room. Hazel waited until the door closed before speaking. “It’s not enough.”Damon turned to her, his brow furrowing. “What do you mean?”“They’re already inside,” Hazel said, her voice steady despite the knot of fear in her chest. “Whoever helped them knew exactly where to strike. We need to find out how they got here—and who let them in.”---The investigation began immediately. Damon and Hazel retraced the traitor’s steps, moving through the castl

Forced Marriage with The Devil The Storm Approaches
The air was heavy with the promise of chaos. Hazel stood at the edge of the canyon, her heart pounding as the horizon darkened with Garrick’s approaching army. The twisted creatures from earlier were only a glimpse of what was to come.Behind her, the soldiers worked tirelessly, reinforcing barricades and sharpening blades. The weight of the impending battle pressed down on everyone, but none more than Damon and Hazel.“They’re getting closer,” Evelyn said, appearing at Hazel’s side. Her face was pale, but her voice was steady.Hazel nodded, her gaze never leaving the horizon. “We have to be ready.”Evelyn hesitated before placing a hand on Hazel’s shoulder. “You’ve come so far, Hazel. Whatever happens, you’re not the same girl who stood in the shadows of this kingdom.”Hazel managed a faint smile, the warmth of Evelyn’s words cutting through the chill of fear. “Thank you.”As Evelyn stepped away, Hazel felt Damon’s presence before she saw him. His hand brushed against hers, grounding
Forced Marriage with The Devil Into the Shadows
The castle was alive with activity as Damon’s forces prepared for the battle ahead. The plan was risky, but Hazel’s resolve was unwavering. The thought of luring Garrick’s army into the canyon was a gamble, but it was one they couldn’t afford to lose.Hazel stood on the battlements, her eyes scanning the horizon. The skies were heavy with dark clouds, an ominous sign of what was to come.“You’re deep in thought again,” Damon’s voice came from behind her.Hazel turned, finding him leaning casually against the stone wall, his eyes fixed on her. Despite the chaos brewing around them, he looked composed, though she could see the tension in his jaw.“Just thinking about the plan,” Hazel admitted. “It’s a lot to risk.”Damon stepped closer, his presence grounding her. “Every battle is a risk. But this one? This one we win.”Hazel managed a faint smile. “You’re confident.”“I have to be,” Damon replied, his hand brushing against hers. “For you. For this kingdom.”Their fingers intertwined, a

The room was quiet, save for the soft crackle of the fireplace. Hazel lay nestled against Damon’s chest, her breathing steady as her fingers absently traced the lines of his muscles. His hand rested on her waist, his grip possessive even in rest.“You’ve ruined me, you know,” Damon said suddenly, his voice low and amused.Hazel glanced up at him, a faint smile tugging at her lips. “I doubt that.”Damon chuckled, his fingers brushing along her spine. “You think I’m joking? I can’t even imagine a life without you now.”Hazel’s cheeks flushed, but she didn’t look away. “Good. Because I don’t plan on going anywhere.”His gaze softened, the usual intensity in his eyes replaced by something warmer. But before either of them could speak again, a sharp knock echoed through the room.Damon’s expression darkened instantly, his hand tightening on Hazel’s waist as he called out, “Enter.”The door creaked open, and Evelyn stepped inside, her expression a mix of urgency and relief. “I’m sorry to in

The first rays of sunlight spilled through the heavy curtains, casting a warm glow across Hazel’s skin. She stirred, her body still humming with the memories of the night before. A faint ache in her thighs reminded her of Damon’s intensity, and a soft blush crept across her cheeks.Before she could shift fully awake, she felt a hand slide across her bare waist, firm and possessive. Damon’s warmth pressed against her back, his breath tickling the curve of her neck.“Good morning,” he murmured, his voice low and velvety, sending a shiver down her spine.Hazel turned slightly, meeting his dark gaze. His eyes glinted with that familiar hunger, the same one that had left her breathless just hours ago.“Good morning,” she whispered back, her voice still thick with sleep.Damon’s lips curved into a wicked smile. “You look tempting like this,” he said, his fingers tracing lazy circles along her hip. “It’s dangerous to wake up beside me, little one.”Hazel’s heart raced as he pulled her closer

The mark on Hazel’s neck pulsed with a faint heat, a tangible reminder of the bond Damon had just forged between them. She shivered beneath him, her heart racing as his lips returned to hers, hungry and insistent.Damon’s hands slid down her body with deliberate precision, his touch both possessive and reverent. “You don’t know how long I’ve waited for this,” he murmured against her lips, his voice rough with barely restrained desire.Hazel’s breath hitched, her body arching into his touch. “Then don’t hold back,” she whispered, her voice trembling with anticipation.Damon’s eyes flashed with something primal. “You have no idea what you’ve unleashed.”With a low growl, he captured her lips again, his kiss searing and demanding. Hazel melted beneath him, her fingers tangling in his hair as his hands explored every inch of her body. He made quick work of the remaining barriers between them, his movements swift and practiced.“Damon,” she gasped, her voice catching as his mouth traveled

The air in the room was thick with tension and unspoken emotions. Hazel lay beneath Damon, her body still trembling from the heat of his touch. His gaze bore into hers, dark and unreadable, but the hunger in his eyes was unmistakable.Yet as the intensity of the moment swelled, Hazel felt something deeper—a pull in her chest, an overwhelming urge to speak the truth that had been burning inside her for weeks.“Damon,” she whispered, her voice barely audible.His movements stilled, his attention fully on her. “What is it?”Hazel’s throat tightened as she tried to find the right words. “I… I need you to know something. Before this goes any further.”Damon’s brows furrowed, his hand coming up to brush a stray lock of hair from her face. “Tell me.”Hazel took a shaky breath, her heart pounding in her chest. “I didn’t think it was possible… not after everything. But somewhere along the way, I—” She broke off, her cheeks flushing as the words caught in her throat.Damon’s gaze softened, his
Forced Marriage with The Devil The Confession 1
The castle was eerily quiet as night fell. For the first time in days, the fires of battle had been extinguished, and the courtyard was empty save for a few lingering guards. Hazel stood by the window in her chambers, staring out at the moonlit landscape.Her body ached from the fight, but it was her mind that refused to settle. The memory of the Aether Stone’s power still lingered, a heavy weight in her chest. She touched the spot where the pendant used to rest, its warmth now replaced with a hollow ache.A knock at the door pulled her from her thoughts.“Come in,” she said softly, her voice barely audible.The door creaked open, and Damon stepped inside. His presence filled the room, his dark eyes locking onto hers immediately. He looked as weary as she felt, but there was an intensity in his gaze that made her pulse quicken.“You should be resting,” he said, closing the door behind him.Hazel gave him a faint smile. “So should you.”Damon crossed the room, his footsteps silent on t

The creatures were relentless. Their grotesque forms moved with terrifying speed, their glowing red eyes locked on their target—the hidden chamber housing the Aether Stone. Damon cut down one after another, his sword an extension of his fury.“Hazel, stay with me!” he called over the chaos.“I’m not going anywhere!” Hazel shouted back, her dagger flashing as she drove it into the nearest enemy. The pendant around her neck pulsed in sync with her heart, its warmth lending her strength she hadn’t known she possessed.But for every creature they defeated, two more took its place. The castle’s defenses were crumbling under the onslaught.“We need to fall back!” Damon shouted, his voice cutting through the din.Hazel nodded, her breath coming in short gasps. Together, they pushed their way toward the inner keep, rallying the remaining soldiers as they went. The path to the hidden chamber was treacherous, the air thick with smoke and the screams of the wounded.As they reached the door to t
Forced Marriage with The Devil The Turning Tide
The faint light of dawn crept over the horizon, casting a pale glow across the castle’s battered walls. The courtyard was quiet now, the echoes of the night’s battle replaced with the muffled groans of the wounded and the soft hum of activity as the defenders regrouped.Hazel stood near a makeshift infirmary set up in the corner of the courtyard, her eyes scanning the injured soldiers as Evelyn worked tirelessly alongside the healers. Hazel’s hands trembled as she tried to clean her dagger. The blood smeared on its blade was a stark reminder of how close they had come to losing everything.“Hazel.”She turned at the sound of Damon’s voice. He approached her, his steps deliberate despite the exhaustion that clung to him like a second skin.“You should rest,” he said, his tone softer than usual.Hazel shook her head. “There’s no time for that. The Order won’t stop. They’ll come again, and we need to be ready.”Damon studied her for a moment, his dark eyes unreadable. Then, without a wor
