Arianna POV. I had to go back home, sadly I have to get back home, papa would be checking on me soon, and he'll, of course, see I wasn't in my room sleeping. I was about to say goodbye to Scar, but that's when I noticed the bodyguards in the park, that either means uncle is out with Andy, or they knew I'm not home and are searching for me, both aren't good at all. "I have to leave Scar," I say, he followed my line of sight and saw them, something in him changed, his aura changed, for a minute he wasn't the Scar I knew, his aura wasn't muffled, it felt more dominant, more similar to what I see in my dreams, the more scary Scar. "Go, we'll meet in the dream world tonight," he says landing a kiss, a real kiss to my lips making me smile, I love the kissing. He left me then, he wasn't walking toward my bodyguards, he walked the other way leaving me here, his aura went back down, back to being muffled and hidden, that made me think that maybe he's not what I think he is. "Ariiiiiii!!" I
Arianna POV. I thought I could get away from my parents, you know not to get my bum scolded at the age of twenty-seven, I believed I'm too old to be yelled at or scolded like a child, but tell that to my father who went crazy on me. Fussing about me being sick, how I went out without telling anyone, they knew I sneaked out, it's not the first time I do that, and getting caught is always the worse part ever. "Dad, I'm old now, you can't ground me!" I say trying to get him to stop it, everyone heard him yelling at me, they knew I sneaked out, but the worse part just happened now, Scar is here, he heard my dad scolding me and he wasn't happy about it, the frown on his face, the way he's looking at my dad, I could feel the temperature drop in the room, they too felt that something was wrong around here, something wasn't normal. "Dad, Papa, I'm sorry, but I had to get out and take a breath, I'm okay, I promise," I say trying to calm my parents down, maybe then Scar would calm down too,
Arianna POV."I think I'm being hunted, it started in my dreams, then in real life, and I want it to stop" I say feeling made of stone, the pain in my heart had me standing strong when all I want to do is fall to the ground and cry, I don't want to ever feel like this ever again, but here I am, asking my family for help. "Hunted Arianna? What are you talking about little bat?" Uncle Dante asks, there was the questioning of me being a little right now but I wasn't feeling little at all, I felt big, big Arianna was feeling too much pain to allow little Rina to come out. "Yes, hunted uncle, I believe a demon lord been hunting me," I say in a cold voice, cold enough to match his heart and aura. They all shared a look, they knew something, they all felt something, it wasn't just me who knew something was wrong, but it was papa to talk first. "The aura we felt in the office," he says, it didn't happen that long back. "The one they chased off from the empty house," dad says, I had no ide
Arianna POV.I don't know how long it's been but Ebony is here and she's not alone, she got a human with her, the human is calling her mommy and holding to her for dear life. That was a shock to me, I heard about Ebony before she's a Lord, she's not one to mess with. I heard all about how one person looked at her the wrong way once and she killed them, no second thought she just killed them for looking at her the wrong way, but right now she's standing in our house holding the hand of a little!"If you would stop staring, Kiara is shy" Ebony says in a voice as sweet as honey, laced with the threat of killing someone if we don't stop staring at them. "Mommy" the little whines again, hiding their face in her neck. "I know honey, but mama have some work to do" Ebony calms down her little and turn back to us. "Now if we can get this over with," she says annoyed, uncle Dante looks at me before starting to explain things to her. "We believe our Arianna is being hunted by a demon" he sta
Arianna POV.I don't know how long it's been since I saw Ebony since she left and told me that I actually had my chance with Scar but my fear got in the middle. Or maybe it wasn't meant to happen, maybe if I've listened, I got scared, but anyone would be if they felt a lord aura without knowing what they are dealing with, I wasn't to blame after all.I stopped slipping to my little space, I refused to even wear my ears or tail anymore, it's not like I don't love those, I do, I love being a fox, but ever since he left, I felt broken on the inside, like I've lost my small space, Rina left with Scar. "Hey Ari, you want to sit with me?" Andy asks me, he's too worried about me, he keeps trying to keep me company, to get me to slip, to talk to me, I appreciate his help, I appreciate his attention, but I was just broken on the inside, it's my first ever broken heart. "Sure" I answer him with a smile, walking toward our playroom, I sat down with him, we watched TV, he had shows that I like
Arianna POV. I first had to call to some demon, I didn't have any personal connection with them, I wasn't a dominant, I'm a submissive, which means I'm not the head of the family, and I'm mostly kept out of those things, they are dangerous for me, and I agree. But today I needed to do that, I had to go and get the number, I looked at uncle Dante office, hoping he left with Andy to get him ice cream, his ice cream addiction is finally coming to my aid. The office was empty, I slipped in and started to look around for any sign of number or any kind of contact with demons, he has one, but I can't find it, I don't think it'll be on a file with the word demon contact on it. I wasn't about to get defeated from this, I'll find the number, I moved to my dad's office, he's the right hand of my uncle, it'll be easier for me to search through his office, I can lie and say I'm being a good daughter who wants to help him with his work. I walked inside the office with a fake smile, it's the only
Arianna POV.I waited for the reply, I didn't dare to call again, what if I get in trouble or the guy call my uncle or parents, I decided to stay quiet and wait for him to contact me again. Andy asked about imaginary friend again, if he's still imaginary or if I managed to manifest him, he's either way too smart or just playing dumb with me. "I'm waiting for him," I say, I'm waiting for an answer for sure. "I just want you to be happy Ari, even if you have to love an imaginary friend," he says hugging close. "Thank you Andy" I reply kissing his cheeks. I went with my day, as usual, I'm trying my best to fight slipping, I don't want to slip, not now, not when Scar isn't here, not when I need to be big. I'm waiting for an answer, I don't know if they'd call me? If Scar would just come back and meet up with me, I just hope he'll get my message and would hear me up. I decided to get out today, I'm going to the mall, I wanted to buy some new ears, my old ones aren't that good anymore,
Arianna POV. I definitely didn't think this through, how would I know the king, how would I know what to say to him, I'll have to just beg him? Tell him I love Scar, but I messed up with searching way too much and way too far while he was trying to tell me to trust him, he was honest with me, he wanted me to fall in love with him, but I had to think this through way too much. I'm an overthinker, I think I've had every bad scenario possible going through my head, I know how things could go wrong, but they might also go right, I hope. I parked in the hotel and looked at it, it's one of the newest hotels, I had never been into it or any of the other hotels, I'm still young I got the whole of eternity to do that. I got out of the car and walked toward the front desk, how do I say this without saying it? I'm looking for Lucifer? I'm looking for the king? I demand to be talking to the king! This is all too stupid, the receptionist is human, she won't even know they have Lucifer in the ho
