Untamed Land

2024-10-29 19:42:56The two figures flew for a couple of hours, the thin feminine body clutched tightly to the form of the gentlemen. Kasey's clothing did little against the cold wind. Had she known this would've happened, she wouldn't have worn some gym shorts and a tank top. The freezing cold air was leaving her shaking, clinging to the warmth she could get from Shobek. His wingbeats were getting slower, heavier.
"Almost there." His words were nearly stolen by the wind. Kasey simply nodded, her teeth chattering. Her eyes slowly looked ahead of them again, a strip of land finally becoming visible.
"W...Where are we g...going..?" Kasey looked up to meet Shobeks eyes, he gave a comforting smile; though worry exuded from every pore in his body.
"This land, much like the living world, is separated and split up between seven different rulers. But there are patches that no ruler has control ov

When Shobek finally opened his eyes, the faintest hint of the day was just starting to peek through the tree doorway. As expected, nothing attacked them. He quickly glanced down at the head that rested on his legs. Treating her like a cat, he dared not move. Not wanting to disturb Kasey's sleep. She was curled into herself, with her head resting on his thigh, her hair falling over her face slightly. Shobeks heart lept into his throat as he watched her sleep. She was paler than she used to be when she was on the living plane. A little thinner too. Though she had gained some muscle mass, her frame was still far too thin. He hated having to bring her down in hell and hated the fact that he lied about having to kill her mother to access all her powers. But what he hated the most, was listening to her scream in the night as the night terrors ate her alive. Kasey's eyes finally fluttered open and Shobek was quick to mask his heartbroke
Mistakes of the Past Marketplace
The small room that they decided to be their meeting place seemed to grow smaller at each minute. The plain wooden walls and wooden ground clashed with his aura of nobility. But it was convenient and there was a small chance of anyone overhearing them. And if anyone just happened to hear anything, they could kill them without an outburst. But each second in this room made Pyro itch with annoyance. Everything was plain and wooden. From the tables and chairs to the cabinet and the "couch" with a few pillows. Maybe it was from his living style, but touching any surface, even with gloves on, made him want to scrub the skin off his fingertips. After standing for at least forty-five minutes, Pyro finally watched as the black smoke approached him and started to take form, the figure straightened their scarf as their red eyes flicked up to meet his. A wide grin spread across the demon's face as their red eyes flickered. &n
Mistakes of the Past Mammon Arrives
When Shobek finally finished making his circle, he moved back towards the center to find Kasey trying to smooth out her hair curls. He was happy to see that the tight, black jeans and the white shirt fit. Though he noticed that she wasn't wearing the boots yet. "Do the boots-" Kasey yelped and swung around to fling the brush at him. Luckily for him, he was able to dodge it before it hit him smack in the face. He gave her a wide-eyed look and she slowly calmed down realizing it was him. "Do they happen to have collars with bells on them? I think I should get you one." She scowled, though an embarrassed blush brushed her cheeks. "I doubt they do..." Shobek frowned at the thought of having to wear another collar. "Besides, I don't think I really need one." Kasey snorted and glared past him at the hairbrush that was now doused in mud. No
Mistakes of the Past The Deal
Shobek closed the door to the inn, feeling rather confident that Kasey would be safe there. He slowly walked back up the path, walking past a few empty tents or ones where the Vendors were hiding under their table. Unsurprising. He let his wings reappear as he neared the newly arrived figure. Mammon turned to meet his eyes. He looked to be in his late thirties, his brown shoulder-length hair was tied in a messy bun behind his head. His face was covered with stubble. Shobek stopped roughly five feet away. His eyes looked over the two girls that stood to the side of Mammon. They were twins and both wore matching maid outfits. The only difference between the two was the fact that one had a small heart under her eye on the left cheek, and the other twin had the same design on the right cheek, and that one twin had their black hair had parted to the left, while the other had it parted to the right. "Shobek! It has been a while. What br
Mistakes of the Past The Businessman's Greeting
Shobek had three total drinks before Mammon's patience finally wore down and he basically dragged Shobek out with him. Shobek, barely feeling any buzz, was not happy about this arrangement he had made. Another mistake in a pile of mistakes. But, since it was a deal, he had to follow through with it. "Where to my friend?" Mammon smiled widely, his eagerness barely contained. Shobek unenthusiastically mumbled something like 'follow me' as he walked back up the path a little way and stopped outside the Inn. He turned back at Mammon and frowned for a moment, "Please give me a moment to make sure she is alright and fill her in." Mammon nodded and turned to fix his appearance, to look as well kept as ever. Going so far as to change the color of his suit and tie. "Sure, sure. Let me know when I can come in!" Shobek nodded half-heartedly and knocked
Mistakes of the Past Setting Sail
Kasey wasn't sure what kind of hell was awaiting them, but from looking up at the boat that was armored to the damn sails, she was sure it wasn't anything good. "Are you sure that thing can float?" Kasey questioned Shobek, her eyes looking over the long sharp spikes that peeked out of the water. "There are enchantments to keep it afloat." Shobek smiled as he watched Kasey look over the heavily armored ship they were to use. Mammon already talking to the captain who looked like he was ready to piss his pants. "Why are they.... so... Spikey?" Kasey knotted her brows together and looked up at Shobek as she huddled closer to him when a strong salty breeze brushed past her. "So any sea monsters that we pass will have a hard time ripping into the ship." Shobek slid an arm around Kasey as she frowned and eyed the wooden dock they stood on.&
Mistakes of the Past Confessions
Kasey stared at Shobeks drunken figure as his red face started to pout again. After a moment, Shobek yanked Kasey on top of him. She began to protest as she pushed herself up and looked down at him. But Shobek wrapped an arm around her waist to keep her from leaving; a goofy smile spread across his face as he gave her a warm look. Kasey stared down at him stunned once again. "I've loved you for a long time, Kasey...." Shobeks words were soft and his expression slowly became pained and regretful. "But I've only ever hurt you and have caused you harm. I apologize." "N...None of this is your fault..!" Kasey looked away flustered, her attempts at rolling off him failing. "No... It is. I wasn't careful enough." Shobek tugged her against his chest until her head lay against his chest, his hand quietly petting her. As if to soothe her. Kasey again tried to remove herself from him but he insta
Mistakes of the Past The Agreement
Shobek leaned back against the bedroom door. He hadn't left to find more soup. And frankly, he wasn't going to. Not since he was half-naked. He listened closely to what was happening inside the room and waited patiently for things to fall shockingly quiet. He slowly peeked his head inside and noticed Kasey curled up on the bed, her breathing soft and steady. He watched her for a moment longer before slipping into the room and closing the door. His steps were quiet as he walked to the wardrobe and pulled out a plain shirt. His eyes watched Kasey carefully as he slipped on the white, long-sleeved shirt. Afterward, he quickly left the room. Next time, I'll try to hold back a bit more on the drinks...Shobek thought as he walked down the hall looking for the best cure for his head. Four hours passed before Shobek started to make his way back to the room. His steps were lighter

Mistakes of the Past Love Bitten
Kasey flinched when she watched his canine teeth elongate, slowly Sonneillon brushed her hair out of the way and tilted her head as he slowly rested his teeth against her skin. Kasey took a deep breath and Sonneillon instantly bit down, puncturing her skin, Kasey flinched back as Sonneillon wrapped an arm around her waist while the other one held the back of her head to keep her from moving. Sonneillon groaned at the bursts of flavor, his eyes glowing red as he took a few long gulps. A numbing sensation grew around the bite but Kasey instantly started to feel lightheaded. Her body temperature rose as her body shivered with pleasure against her own will. Sonneillon hugged her closer to him as he savored each millisecond, Kasey gripped onto his shirt as her legs started to become weak and she couldn't help but lean against him for support. Her mouth failed to pronounce words as her mind went at war between wanting more and making it stop. Why wasn't her mouth cooperating? Kase
Mistakes of the Past An Arrangement of Deals
After all four had finished eating the servants came back and cleared the table while the three men talked about politics. Kasey's determination to learn more about this new world she had been swallowed by failing as she kept tuning out pieces of the conversation until she wasn't listening at all. Politics just weren't her thing. Eventually, Mammon shifted the conversation to what they had all been gathered here for. "We are here to make Kasey into a full fledge demon so she will have a chance at survival. Therefore, we need her soul intact, Pyro." Mammon rubbed his hands together and smiled widely at the Prince. "Have what I asked for already been arranged then?" Pyro watched Mammon closely to pick out any lies he dared spill. Mammon tossed his head from side to side for a moment before he smiled, "I think the only thing that hasn't been accomplished was the optional choice. Everything else has been arranged or prepared." Pyro slowly looked over at Kasey who
Mistakes of the Past Dinner with Frenemies
Crystle lead Kasey to two double mahogany doors and bowed as she announced Kasey's arrival. The doors swung open and Crystle instantly moved to the side, bowing to Kasey while she gestured into the room. Kasey slowly walked towards the long table that Mammon was already seated at. He smiled warmly at her and slowly stood up. "Lovely for you to join us! The others will be arriving shortly," Mammon moved away from his spot at the head of the table and pulled out the seat that was next to him. "Please, sit." Kasey hesitated before smiling slightly and sat in the chair with a cautious "thank you". "I am quite happy that you did decide to join us, but I am curious why you didn't say no?" Mammon pushed in her chair before he grabbed a bottle of wine that one of his servants started to bring over to pour into her glass. He instantly shooed the servant away as he poured it himself for her. "I didn't realize no was an option if I am being honest. Though if you want th
Mistakes of the Past Mammon's Mansion
As soon as Kasey let go of Mammon's hand, she had a sinking feeling in her chest. As if she just sold herself to him. The enthusiasm Mammon was clearly showing wasn't much help either. He quickly went to the door and directed a servant to lead Kasey to a room she could stay in until things were ready. The maid led her to a door that was a few doors down from the office they had appeared in, slowly Kasey worked up the courage to ask where they were. The blue-haired maid bowed after she opened the door for Kasey, gesturing for her to enter before looking up at the human girl and replying, "This is lord Mammon's mansion, miss. I am Crystle. I will be your caretaker while you are here, miss." Her eyes were an icy blue and her lips were pale against her snow-white skin. The black and white maid outfit is a heavy contrast to her expression. But she still seemed beautiful. "How long do you think I will be here?" The maid stared at the human before turning her head back dow
Mistakes of the Past Hunt
It was night by the time Kasey paused to rest. She sat down on a fallen tree. Why the tree had fallen was the last thing on her mind. what was on her mind was how broken her legs felt. And how badly her arm ached. It might've been basically healed, but it was still sore from the whole event. Kasey took off her bag and pulled out a water bottle and an apple. She took a few short swigs of the water before putting it away and putting the bag back on. She slowly ate the apple as she used her demon eye's powers again to peer around her. She was alone for now. The phone she stole chimed and Kasey jumped before peering down at the screen. It was a message. "Have you not arrived?" Kasey sighed and texted back, "a few miles north still." "I see." Kasey took another bite of her apple as she jumped down from the tree and continued her walk. Shobek paced back in forth on the lawn while Belasco went around the whole house to make sure he wasn't mistaken. But
Mistakes of the Past Healing
The doctor that showed up only did the bare minimum since Kasey was still human. Though he was supposedly trustworthy, Shobek made the doctor seal his lips about this incident with a bit of his magic. Though it was risky, both demon lords decided a tiny spark shouldn't prove where they were. So it was done. If the doctor spoke of the incident, he would instantly be consumed by Shobek's flames. "The doctor said she should be better after a few days, especially with her quick healin. So you don't need to guard her..." Belasco again repeated to the stubborn dragon. "We didn't even know when he arrived. There's no promise that he can't appear in her room either. It's better if someone stays in her room with her." Shobek snarled, his eyes watching Kasey as she lay on the bed, staring emptily at the ceiling. Belasco sighed, giving up on his attempt to let Kasey rest in peace, "just promise me, that if she asks for some alone time, you will listen to her." Shobek nod
Mistakes of the Past Battle
Kasey argued with Belasco the next morning about letting her take the day off. But Belasco refused to train her until tomorrow and locked himself in his gaming room. Kasey stormed downstairs and angrily took a bite of an apple. Shobek played on the console until he noticed Kasey's presence. "What's wrong?" Shobek paused his game and looked over at her. "Belasco is making me take a day off," Kasey responded before taking another bite. "Shouldn't you be happy you get a day off?" Shobek got up and walked over to her, a hand gently touching over a bruise that was left on her cheek. "He beat you up pretty badly.." "I want to train! Besides, most of the scratches are already healed. The bruises are mostly faded too." Kasey responded pulling away from Shobeks touch. "I didn't know you had fast healing," Shobek stepped back to give her space. "I didn't either," Kasey said around a bite of the apple. "I could try to train you...?" Shobek hesitantly offe
Mistakes of the Past New Training
Kasey picked out a more comfortable outfit amongst the clothes Shobek ordered for her online through Belasco's account. Taking the outfit to the bathroom, Kasey quickly got in and washed from the day's grueling work. Her mind drifted to the time she let herself fall into her pit of depression, her body slowly growing limp as she stood under the water. No, not again... Kasey shook her head and continued to wash the shampoo out of her hair. After she was done she got out, dried off, and slipped into her underwear and the black sweatpants and lavender shirt she picked out. Quickly tying her hair back into a sloppy bun she headed back downstairs, patting Ananta on the head as she headed back outside. The two had stopped arguing by this time but a tense silence remained between the two. "How's the food coming?" Kasey slowly asked, hoping to NOT cause another fight. "Almost done," Shobek responded. Belasco mockingly mouthed what Shobek said. "I saw that," Shobe
Mistakes of the Past Strength
Kasey's new life took off much quicker than expected. Wake up at six, get ready, eat by seven, then work on meditation and breathing till nine. Practice magic until twelve, eat lunch, then do combat training until five, having only short breaks between the course. Shobek watched each day, impressed with her increasing stamina and faster response times. Though she still had yet to beat Belasco, day by day, she was pushing through, getting closer each time. Belasco panted as he again blocked and dodged Kasey's endless attacks, jumping over another leg sweep, "let's take a break!" Kasey slowly stood back up, panting as she walked over to the outside table and picked up a towel to wipe off her sweat. "I think I almost had you there." Belasco paused then chuckled, "not quite sweets!" Belasco took a long swig of his drink as Shobek stepped outside. "No, she definitely had you there. You've gotten much weaker Belasco." Shobek walked over to the two with two cups of
