Experiencing that plane ride with Dominic and his group, I'm starting to dislike air travel. If I'm riding on the same transportation with Leah, I don't know what I will do, but it won't be pretty.We step forward in front of the gate. I feel an overflow of magic surrounding the castle—a protection barrier created by the faes. Though visible to the human eyes, I can see it shimmering.I became hesitant going through the barrier, worried that my presence could trigger an alarm system to alert the elders that a demon had entered the premises."Are we going in?" Camila asked and noticed I hadn't made a step forward."Yeah, give me a minute. There is a force field covering the castle, a barrier. It prevents anything evil from entering.""Master, you are a demon. If you touch the barrier-" Kaze sounds flustered."If anything happens, get ready for me to teleport you two as far away from here. Got it?""Got it," Camila and Kaze say in unison.I took in an intake of the surrounding air and le
With the other hand, I pinch its tiny shirt and lift it at eye level. It was yelling and screaming like mad, swinging tiny fists at me."Let me go, you human!" the Imp squirmed.I study the little thing—my first to see an Imp up close. It has the size of a toddler, stubby in length, with whole almond black eyes with no iris or pupil. The Imp has red skin, two little horns sticking out from the top of his hairless head. He resembles the cartoon character where your subconscious sits on one shoulder while an angel occupies the other.The twins told me how naughty they are; pranking others is what they love to do. They can mimic voices and lure you away from the crowd, making your head go crazy. And this did a good job getting irritated and messing with my head.I don't know how long he will keep wailing his fists in thin air, but I find him adorable. "I said let me go! How can a human catch me?""Hey, do I seem human to you?" I ask.The Imp stopped swinging his little arms and stared at
"I...Uhm..." I shift my eyes at my friend, who shrugs. I exhale. "I walked around and explored the castle a bit." Satu sighs heavily, upset about something I have done. "No one, not even the guest from the outside, is allowed to wander off. You can get lost easily without a guide. I should have told you the rules beforehand." Sounding apologetic. "Oh, no. It's my fault. I shouldn't explore likes it's my house." I say. "Next time, I will ask." "Well, since you understand and apologize. I won't blame you. Part of it is my fault." He flashes a smile revealing tiny fangs on his upper teeth. "Shall we go and meet up with her highness?" "Sure," I look back. "Behave you two." "I'm not the one who got in trouble first," Camila teased; Kaze wheezed a peal of laughter. I glare at the dire wolf as he stops, dropping his head down to the floor. "I'll be back." I grit my teeth, not trying to hide the embarrassment in front of the head butler of the Fae Queen. I bid at them and followed Satu.
"Are you okay, Miss Carter?"Satu pulls me from my train of thoughts, and I smile at him. "I'm good."His ears pull down. "I've heard stories about you.""Oh?" I say, made myself composed about the rumors about me."Don't get offended, I mean," Satu's face turns red. "I heard from the wolves that you were obsessed with Alpha Dominic since you were kids, and you will do anything to keep him away from other possible suitresses. Then they said you left because he has found his mate."I slapped my forehead and let out a groaning sigh. My reputation as the wolfless possessive villain has spread outside the werewolf community. Of course, it's a title I was given, and there is nothing to hide, but I want the gossip about me to stop. It makes my ears itch whenever people talk behind my back because of my past."That was all in the past," I told him as I glanced around at more decorative paintings on the wall and exquisite art pieces. "Plus, I left the pack not because Alpha Dominic found his
"I know..."I lift my eyes and see the little Queen now in her standard size through my lashes.I raise my body as a knot in my heart forms. The Queen has teary eyes but smiling as if she has found someone important to her."My Queen."Queen Bisera raises a hand, preventing Satu from approaching her. "I'm fine," she sniffles as the vines from the tree use a handkerchief to wipe her tears. She thanked them."I know you're not my Lulu," the Queen smiles beautifully. "She disappeared after 500 years. I'd searched for her but had no clue where she had gone. I was curious about what my son said that you obtain light magic powers. Light magic is powerful enough to get rid of the demon magic."Queen Bisera went over to the tree and touched it. "I sense the light magic in you from outside my door. Once you step in and one look, I became emotional as I saw my long-lost friend."I hear the faint voice. She mistook me for her friend because she felt the light magic inside me. I understand the p
I feel like hours, days, weeks, even months. Sometimes I feel like it can be a decade to walk down the hallway to reach a room.Each on my side, the two Queens, talked and told stories about their lives and their childhood. Luckily, Satu didn't join but instead went to find King Ragnar.I mostly know Queen Bisera's story. Queen Ingrid was a bit intriguing.Before Queen Ingrid became the woman she is now. She's the oldest daughter of an aristocrat. As a human, she was shy and kept things to herself, but her father did not favor her because of her timid behavior. Her half-younger sister, Vanessa, was spoiled by her parents and would often make Ingrid get caught in her schemes. As her older sister, Vanessa takes the blame for everything she does. Over 500 years ago, the discovery of man turning into a beast was highly dangerous to humans because of their supernatural abilities. The human things going to war with them don't have a chance. So, to bring peace between the humans and werewolv
"Sorry," Talima chuckles nervously; she pulls her hand away. "I got carried away with my emotions.""It's okay," I say softly."You are a good kid, Yuna. That's why I want to help you find your parents."I move up on my chair. "Is there a way?""Yes, there is an artifact here in the castle known as the Mirror of Truth. It can tell you anything you ask for.""But I thought you know everything since you are the Oracle," I retort, making her chuckle."Of course, I know everything, but my powers are limited," Talima explains. "I would have to dive deep within your memory, which my powers can not do. Only the Mirror of Truth wields that kind of power. But..."Hearing the word 'but' after every sentence is always never good. "But what?""The Mirror of Truth is a demon artifact."I almost fall off my chair. "You have a demon artifact? Here? Inside the castle?""Yes," the blind Fae took a deep breath. "This artifact has been in this castle for 500 years after the Great War. We have it caged w
"Give me your hand."I move my hand slowly towards his. I can feel the pressure and tension, and my heart is crazy like a Mad Hatter, as if he's really on crack. But that's not the case, and I'm starting to doubt to trust this guy. He is a demon, but he's different from the twins and Jippis. I sense real evil within him. If he will pull a trick on me and suck out all my life, I have to strike first.I unleash a quarter of my demon magic not to be sensitive for the demon to catch on. Talima gasped behind me. She knows about my identity because she never questioned it. So I trusted her completely when she didn't tattle on me."Scared?" Merkon snicker.I glare at him. "No," then I placed my hand on his as I felt a wave of his magic going through me, but once that magic got a hold of my energy, I could feel it pulling.My body starts to drain. This asshole said only a tiny amount. He's trying to get the whole fucking buffet out of me."Lippy, stop."I ignore the pleading from Talima as
I pace around the room Dominic used to stay in when visiting occasionally.My anxiety as a new parent and the need to learn about Camila's curse is crucial.I paused, trying to devise a plan and visit the library's secret archives that only the Elders and their spouses and assistants are allowed.I groaned and ruffled my hair in frustration."Hey, hey, you are going to peel that beautiful head of yours," Dominic stopped me, pulled my hands away, and gently rubbed my head."Nicky..." turning to face him with a desperate look.Dominic smiled and then pulled me in his arms. "I know how frustrated but Michael is fine with his grandma."When Bibi took Michael away, we followed to the main hall and found all the queens surrounding the child. Ingrid had the child in her arms while the other queens played with him, gave him gifts, and loved him like any grandmother would do to spoil their grandchild.Being a half-demon, the queens quickly accepted him. But if they knew who his biological fath
The portal brought everyone to where I had asked the Fairy Chief to take us."Tell me why we are here again?" Camila asks as she gazes up at Castle Luna De Argint."Because Cam, I promised Nick's grandfather that I teach him and his men to fight ferals.""Haven't they fought them before, even before we are born? Why ask you?"I sighed.Camila is becoming antsy right now that we are back at the place where I was accused of murder. When I was taken to be interrogated by the Elders, she held back her anger. Luckily, Clayton was holding her back.Camila had experienced something I went through, and it almost released her inner darkness.I need to do something about her powers before someone gets hurt.Michael squirmed in my arms before going back to Slumberland."Camila, we won't stay here long," I assured her without making her uncomfortable. "The ferals they fought long ago are different. Demir creates these ferals from his magic; they are twice as powerful and dangerous. If the Elders
I follow Dad into his room. He waves his hand and immediately shuts the door and locks it. I can feel the tension in the air as I'm thinking about hearing Saye about Dominic and me having sex right in front of my Dad. He didn't raise me, and I didn't grow up with him, but I'm an adult. I decided to do well in my relationship with Dominic. Even if he knew that his future son-in-law killed me in my past life. Still, I wanted to continue being with him. After all, Dominic was under a spell. I don't blame him for being naive when he was a child and didn't know his birthday gift was cursed. Dad and I just found each other, and having that father-daughter bond is still new to me. I have act natural and accepted him as my father, learning the truth. Is Dad mad I had sex before I married? I'm waiting for Dad to say something, but I can only wait. I took a moment and realized the room design. It's like I stepped into a modern Victorian chamber. A room the size of a house, fancy expensive
Walking hand in hand, I found Dad and the others huddled in a group when their eyes landed on us, curious and suspicious about where Dominic and I had been.Heat rash spread across my face."Your face is red, babe," Dominic says through our private mind link.I glare at him, and he chuckles.I elbowed him in the side, but he was still laughing."Master, why do I smell the sweat and...erotic coming from the two of you?" Saye asks as she and Arlo pull on a smirk.Damn, those sex demons."Oh my god! Did you two finally do it?" Camila squealed excitedly.My face heats up even more.Oh god, this is embarrassing.This awkward situation is worse because my Dad knows I had sex with Dominic. The look in his eyes, I can't tell if he's upset with me or if it is something else, and talking about sex is making things more complicated."Saye, don't make Master uncomfortable," Kaze turns his head as I pat his head for praise.I need to change the subject. I clear my throat. "Anyways, I have somethin
Dominic's tongue twirls playfully in my mouth. I got aroused by the way he was pressing his body against me."Nick, stop," I said in between kisses. "If this continues, we will never leave here."He pulls his lips and looks at me devilishly. "I don't mind. I'm not done savoring your body."Why does he have so much stamina?Oh, right, werewolf.But I'm a half-fox. I should have equal energy as he, but my body feels exhausted and sore. And I trained my body not to get worn out, yet, when it comes to sex, I'm drained.Dominic parted from my lips and lowered himself, kissing my skin. He kissed the side of my thigh as his face reached between my legs. I let out a small moan feeling his hot breath."They are going to wonder where we are.""Hm.""Nick, please don't- AH!" I gasped out as I felt his tongue swirling in me.I spread my legs wider for better access for him. I grabbed his hair as the surge built up inside me."Oh god! I'm getting close," I moan louder and grab his hair to pull clo
I didn't think making love would come to this where Dominic and I became one. Though he hadn't marked me, he wanted to give me the best ceremony, and I couldn't help but fall for him all over again.I played with his hand, measuring the size or counting. I continued like this as we leaned against a tree. We are still naked but fully covered with a blanket I provided with magic. I have myself leaning against his chest.Dominic breathed against my neck and planted a kiss. I giggled and looked at him. "Don't.""Why not?" He asked seductively, kissing the nape of my neck."We've done it four times," I blushed and could recollect how many times I climaxed. And thanks to him, I'm a bit sore.While our lovemaking, Dominic's erection got hard after each release. Now he wanted to continue.Just picturing each time we release got me all blushing from my face down to my naked self. "I can't help myself," Dominic chuckles and kisses my face. "I just love hearing your moan and calling out my name
Dominic and I locked lips as my moan escaped. I pinned him down to the ground, continuously kissing him."Wait, baby," Dominic says through our kiss, trying to get my attention. He lightly pushed me back. "Is it okay to be doing it here? What if your Dad or anyone sees us?"I smirk.It's cute how worried it makes me want him even more. If someone sees us being intimate will cause a disruption. Everyone will know what Dominic and I had done. Surely Dad wouldn't like to see his daughter naked and with a man. He will probably feel uncomfortable and scold me.But I don't want to wait for the ceremony. I want Dominic to mark me now.Every part of my body wants his touch, and between my legs is aching.I snapped my fingers as the entrance to this cave part was sealed with a makeshift wall."Now, no one can interfere," I bent down and captured his lips.His hands stroke my body as things start to get heated.Dominic's tongue slipped into my mouth and danced with mine. I moan and rub against
"Dad, where are you going?""I just want to have a little man-to-man chat with my potential son-in-law," my angry demon lord Dad is making his way to find Dominic."Dad, please stop. This is my issue, not yours.""You're my daughter, and anyone hurting you, I will teach them a lesson. Even that wolf is your mate." Dad announced.After I opened my mouth and complained about Dominic not paying attention to me, Dad had the impression that he wasn't happy.I told him I had to solve my problems with Dominic, but now that he's a parent and wants to protect his little girl, he is on the verge of murdering my mate.I can't convince my dad, who doesn't show but has a temper, not to seek Dominic. How can I calm a Demon Lord?If only Mom is awake.I tugged on his cloak and pulled him. "Dad, this is Dominic, and I own problems. Let me handle it.""And let him ignore the fact that he killed you!"I froze as my heart skipped a beat. "H-How?"Dad frowned and sighed. "Azazel told me."Azazel then it
"Baby, you okay?" Dominic put the robe on me to cover. I swallowed hard and continued to breathe. I looked up at Dominic and smiled. "Yeah, I'm okay." I cup his face and pull him into an embrace. "Nick, I'm so sorry. I didn't want to hurt you." "No, I know you would never do something like this." "I don't know what came over me," I pulled away and got off the bed holding the robe. "I felt...I felt that I was myself in the past." "About that, Lippy." I can feel Dominic standing behind me. "I remembered that night. The night you..." I covered my face and turned to face him. "Nick, I'm so sorry. I had no intention of doing that to you, but it was the only way you became mine. I was selfish." Everything has brightened that speck of light at the end of the tunnel. "And about you being reborn, did I-" I cup Dominic's face. "Do think about it. Don't even question it. You were under a spell and didn't mean to kill me." "But I did," he pulled down my hands. "I...killed you, Lippy. How-
