Inferno Chapter 15: Royal Blood
Logan I blinked a few times as I heard whispering voices. The orange light streaming in from the windows told me it was morning. I yawned as I sat up, my body echoing with pains and aches. Xander was leaning against the far wall by the door that goes out on the balcony. Another man was standing there, speaking with him. He looked vaguely familiar as I stared at him. With black shaggy hair, sharp green eyes, and a straight jawline, the resemblance to Xander was there. Was this another brother? "...Elder's asked for an audience. I can't tell them no." The man said, clearly over this already, "I can smell your... bond already. They can't deny this. If they do, it leaves them open for others to contest their positions. No one wants that." Xander groans, pinching the bridge of his nose, "Rosa is gone. I'm unsure of how they are getting their information, but they are getting it." "You have to understand that it doesn't matter how, they will get their info." Xander scoffed, "Rosa was
Inferno Chapter 16: Grace
LoganIt’s been a week since the whole incident with Clare. I’m unsure of what exactly that was all about, but it made everything a lot easier since I’ve told Xander about my idea. He’s been happier. Maybe it was because of my idea or maybe because of his new advisor, his brother, Alex. From the sounds of it, they don’t spend a lot of time together and since it was approved by the Elders, now they are inseparable. It’s nice though, to see Xander smile. He’s been intense and almost frustrated with everything until recently.I groaned as I looked at the stack of books on my desk. Xander has given me books about my heritage and my own kind, but also books on being a queen. I was having trouble understanding the aspects of what a Queen truly represents. There’s no way though, I’m able to walk into a room with grace and elegance and demand everyone’s attention. I’m going to need more training on how to be graceful and fearful at the same time, because you can only learn so much from a book
Inferno Chapter 1: The Bar
Logan Ruby, the only bar with my kind, was loud and crazy tonight, and very popular with both races, humans and those from the underworld. I stayed away from the humans as I went ahead of the line, the bouncer didn't even try to stop me as I walked into the bar. The smell of adreneline, sex, and anger filled the air and I felt excitment pass through my body. I squashed it just as soon as I felt it. It never ends well when my excitment gets out of control. I smirked as I noticed eyes landing on me as I stared into the huge crowed. I've lived my life in constant fear and the staring eyes of the hungry werewolves, vampires, and other fae doesn't work on me. As I moved threw the crowd, I took notice of all of those stares directed at me, including the bartendar, standing just a few inches taller than me with short black curly hair, bright glowing blue eyes with a purple ring around the irise alerted me to what he was. As for the stares and the hatred towards me, I've pretty much grown i
Inferno Chapter 2: What goes up, must go down
Xander I narrowed my eyes at the red blinking light on my phone. I quickly checked the cameras and rage burst through my body. Axel and his new wife, Nicole, were on there way up. I absolutely hated them both. I knew why they were here and there was nothing I could do. I knew they would have the Edlers support, but these books!I angrily turned around and looked at my library. Books still lined the walls, but on the red cedar table in the middle of the room, dozens of books were scattered all over the table, the carpet, the chairs... I was looking for a loophole, something that would allow me to keep my regin. I won't allow for my spineless little brother to take my place and ruin this kingdom. I've worked hard to keep this place steady and the numbers in our kingdomhave gone up by 68% since I've taken over after our father passed. My advisor hurried in, Rosa. With her long blonde hair, deep green eyes, and a beautiful fair complexion would turn anyone's head, but those long longs a
Inferno Chapter 3: Burn, Baby, BURN!
LoganIt's been three months since I was made manager and Markus is very pleased with me. I caught on quickly, fired a few shit employees, found better employees, and the club has been rolling in the money since. No more breaking bottles behind the counter and no more cleaning not getting done, along with people getting sick from the food we were serving. The music was loud and nosy just like they wanted it, the food was hot and crunchy and fully cooked, the booze was easy going and no bottles were going to waste anymore. Markus had just shown me the graph of when he didn't have a manager and then after I started. He had gone up in revune 36%. He was over the moon with the numbers and very thankful, he even gave me a raise. I got behind the counter and started to serve when I noticed a girl with long blonde hair, watching me with a sparkle shining brightly in her green eyes. Goosebumps covered my arms that told me that this was it. They had finally caught up with me. Adreneline fill
Inferno Chapter 4: Bad but good
XanderI was more than surprised when I had watched this low level demon, not so low-level after all, literally make a fool out of my advisor, who is known to be ruthless and is one of the high level demons in the kingdom besides me, of course. I've also never seen a fire demon with purple flames either. I watched as she moved away, her long black hair swayed to the moves of her hips, those dark green eyes that turned purple when the flames arose, her fair complexion didn't even have a single scratch, and her dull aura all of a sudden raise several freaking questions. I moved swifly away from the screams of Rosa as she was trying to put her teeth back in her mouth. I teleported to the back door and I smirked as this women turned around and stopped as she saw me. Her eyes were filled with alertness, anger, and some form of urgency. She took a step back, getting in a fighting stance, but I saw in her eyes that she was ready to run just as well. She spoke first, "What do you want?" Her
Inferno Chapter 5: The Offer
Logan I stared at this man in complete shock, "Your telling me... that the Elders of the underworld are making you choose someone to be your Queen within 6 months, or 3 months now..." I swallowed hard, "and your asking me to be your Queen?" I blinked a few times in disbelief. I couldn't believe what I was hearing! Something like this just doesn't happen. Xander swallowed hard, his anger bubbling up again, "Don't make fun of me!" He hissed. I could see that he was struggling to get his anger undercontrol, almost like he was fighting with himself. I shooky my head immedatiely, "I'm not!" I swore to him loudly. "I swear that I'm not making fun of you. I just never... I would never have thought that there would be so many rules for ruling the underworld. I thought you were King, not the Elders. I don't understand." He nodded, "The system is very complicated and very corrupt at the same time. The King, me, is in charge of all the other demons, and I make sure the underworld runs smoot
Inferno Chapter 6: Control
Xander I stared at Logan as she got into the cab. Every part of me was burning and telling me not to let her go. Once the door was closed and the cab was pulling away, I zoned in on my aura and snapped it shut. I glanced down at myself and saw only the sidewalk. I haven't used my invisibility since I was kid. I used to use my invisibility to get extra food at night when everyone thought I was sleeping and amongst other things... that's another story for a different time though. I teleported myself into the cab and I almost ended up touching her. I yanked back my hand just in time and pressed myself against the window. I really didn't need her to know that I was here. Following her was something I didn't know I was going to do until it just happened. It's like my body has a mind of its own whenever I'm around her. It's almost like she's compelling me, which was highly unusual and surprising. She was incredible and I knew I wasn't going to be able to let her go.She also scares me tho

Inferno Chapter 14: A Thin Line
XanderI carefully walked back to the room with a tray full of food. The Chef had prepared a yogurt parfait, oatmale, orange juice, and saltine crackers. I asked for the saltine crackers because I know my stomach felt horrible and couldn't hold anything down except for water and crackers. I placed the tray on the bedside table of the pull-out bed and quickly straightened the covers. What else should I do? I glanced at the bathroom door and realized it was open some. I blinked a few times in surprise, but slowly walked over. I couldn't help myself. I was curious for sure. She left the door open as well, which meant she wanted to be seen, right? I stopped myself, disgusted with myself. Where the hell did I get that type of mentality from? I shook my head and turned to go, but caught a glimpse of her. Her short black shorts made her already round ass so much more plump. And that t-shirt wasn't doing her any favors at all. Her breast weren't being held down by a bar so her nipples were
Inferno Chapter 13: Desire
LoganI groan as I feel myself slowly start to wake up. My head is pounding and my body feels like it's on fire. I could feel his hands, like they were still on me. Everything inside me screams that something is different, I feel like myself, but not quite. It takes a moment, but eventually I can focus enough to realize that I'm in a complete different room. Panic starts to set in as I try to remember how I got here, but my mind is foggy and nothing comes to me.I try to sit up, but my muscles feel sluggish and weak. It's like I'm moving through molasses. It takes all of my willpower just to get to a sitting position, but once I do, I'm able to look around and get my bearings. The room is dark and dreary, with heavy curtains blocking out all the light. There's a large four-poster bed across the room, and a dresser against the wall. A fireplace burns merrily in the corner, but it doesn't do much to dispel the gloom. Despite the ominous ambiance, I can't help but feel like I've been her
Inferno Chapter 12: Love?
Xander What was taking so long? It never lasts this long when some goes through the transition. I wonder if Logan was having a hard time. I remeber the look she gave me when I had kissed her. She was disgusted with me... I should have explained the process futher when I mentioned the transition. I just didn't think she would have transitioned so quickly. I didn't even think she was near the transition, you could usually smell it. Dr. Anderson thinks it has something to do with the experiments she's been through. It would explain a lot, but then for her to be from the very first family of Death Demon's means a lot. Her blood is strong and she'll bring me well-bred children, but her mind could be alterned from the being in the human realm and from the society of humans. They think completely different from demon kind and they make it hard to co-exist because they are stuck in their humanity ways. Rosa appeared next to me, "Sir, the Elders have requested a meeting with you tomorrow at
Inferno Chapter 11: Finding yourself
Logan I gasped as my body hit the ground. I was pretty sure my eyes were open, but it was complete darkness. I couldn't even make out anything, no shapes, and there weren't any sounds either. The silence was worse than the darkness almost. I wasn't scared of the dark, but I was scared of what was in the dark. I knew people lurked in all sorts of places, waiting for their prey. I slowly got to my feet and shuffled around, hoping to maybe find a wall or something to tell me that I was at least somewhere safe. I started to walk forward, holding out my hands in front of me just in case I came in contact with someone. After a few minutes of listening to my own footsteps, a thought occurred to me. I groaned, and used my hand to ignite a small fireball that lit up just a few feet around me. I blinked a few times, letting myself get used to the light versus the darkness. There was literally nothing around me, just... emptiness. I moved around some, hoping to see anything, but still nothing.
Inferno Chapter 10: Misunderstanding?
XanderI dragged my hands down my face in total frustration. I wasn't able to get anywhere with Rosa. I know that Logan would be nice and hold her ground as she told me, but Rosa is the main problem here. She's run so many other people out of here that this castle is nearly empty because of her. Hungry demons don't get along with other demons for various reasons, but the main one is... hungry demons don't care if you're human or eat, they will eat you. Rosa is the worst too, she'll take small pieces at first, just a little bit here and there, but before you know it, you're arm's gone or your legs missing. Footsteps hurried into the room. Delia, one of my personal maids, hurried in. Her dark brown eyes were dilated and her long black hair looked like she just got out of bed. A look of terror on her face told me something was going on. She didn't have to say anything. Rosa and I quickly followed her down the hall. Yelling from inside told me that it was Logan and... Nicole? What the fu
Inferno Chapter 9: Secrets
Logan I sighed deeply as I submerged myself into the bath water some more. The bathtub was huge! My feet didn't even touch the other side and I was fully laid down in it. I stared up at the white checkered ceiling thinking about the kiss. It felt... amazing! I didn't know something like that could happen. I've read about it, sure, but I didn't think it would ever happen to me. I mean, come on! I'm a Death Demon, the last of my kind, and no one takes a second look at me. Well, Xander did, but for different reasons. Remember Logan, this is just a job. Nothing more. I'm sure Xander has other women he's more interested in someone like me. I turned my head and glared at my reflection in the full length mirror. I couldn't believe I was here and that I agreed to something like this. I watched myself in the mirror, and hated what I saw. Worthless... thats the word that came to mind. I groaned and decided to appericate the bathroom instead. It was beauiful in here for sure. The shower was se
Inferno Chapter 8: Real fire
Xander Bridget was a fragile old lady with white-ish gray hair always up in a tight, with crinkly dull blue eyes, and a small mole on the left side of her lips. She was calm as she pricked Logan's finger, letting the drop of blood hit the Moon water in the holy chalice. Usually, young demons will be brought to the DMA grounds and will be taken into the center room the Elders use for communication with other royalty or purebloods. Bridget or Samantha will prick the young one's finger, letting the blood drop into the chalice and after a few seconds, a puff of colored smoke with puff out of the water. Red means hunger demon, blue means fear demon, green means greed demon, yellow means lower-level demons such as luck, hate, and all that good stuff. Only the top-notch demons have their own colors. Orange is for the middle level demons that answer the incantation of those who sell their souls for something in return. It depends on the demons blood, how high quality it is. Mine was a black
