The Devil's Bride Chapter 101: The Best
Poor old Elvis was feeling incredibly stressed out. He had just found out that Lyra had literally become the biggest shareholder of the company that he had built from basically nothing. This meant that she had more power than him and could make important decisions without consulting him. His title as CEO might as well not be there since Lyra used her money to be the one in charge. Elvis hated the fact that he had been reduced to being only a partial shareholder of his own company.He felt like he was losing control over something that had been his life's work. So, no matter how much he wanted to relax to be able to think well and straight, he couldn't shake off the feeling of resentment and anger. It still lingered. Elvis knew that he had to come to terms with the situation and figure out a way to work around it. He can't just accept that too easily; he still needs to fight back and think of a strategy to win over Lyra. He called out to Wendy, unable to contain his anger. He needed s

As the moonlight shone through the window, Lyra and Derrick snuggled up together in their bed. They were both exhausted from a long day, but they couldn't resist the feeling of each other's warmth. Lyra traced her fingers along Derrick's arm, admiring the way his muscles flexed under her touch. "I love you," she whispered softly, her breath warm against his skin. Derrick turned his head to look at her, his eyes sparkling in the moonlight. "I love you too, Lyra," he replied, taking her hand in his and intertwining their fingers. They lay there in silence for a few moments, just enjoying the comfort of each other's embrace. "I just can't believe that we're actually married. It's like a dream come true," she said, smiling. Derrick grinned back at her. "I know, it's amazing. I never thought I could be this happy." Lyra leaned in and pressed her lips to his, feeling a rush of warmth spread through her body. They kissed deeply, their bodies entwining as they explored each other's mout

Lyra's heart was bursting with joy as she planned their day together. She couldn't wait to surprise Derrick with a special date night filled with all of his favorite things. As she went about her morning routine, she hummed a happy tune, imagining the look of delight on his face when he realized what she had in store. She carefully laid out their matching outfits, taking care to iron out any wrinkles and make sure that they looked their best. Lyra wanted everything to be perfect, down to the smallest detail. "Oh, maybe I won't wear the pearl clip," she whispered to herself. "Yeah, too many sparkles," she then answered her own thought as she glanced at the gems on the neckline of her tan dress. "Keep it simple, I guess; that’s going to be better. Especially with his coat looking like that, oh, yeah!" she was giddy just by looking at how pretty their outfits complement each other. As she headed out to run some errands, Lyra couldn't help but daydream about the romantic evening that aw

Lyra and Derrick stepped out onto the pool deck, hand in hand, marveling at the beautiful setting before them. The soft glow of candlelight and the gentle flicker of fairy lights created a romantic ambiance that was simply breathtaking. The warm breeze played with Lyra's hair as they approached the table, set for two, with crisp white linens, sparkling crystal glasses, and delicate china plates. The bouquet of flowers that Lyra had picked was used as the center piece. As they settled into their chairs, Lyra couldn't help but feel grateful for this moment of peace and tranquility. The stresses and worries of daily life melted away as she gazed into Derrick's eyes, feeling his love and affection wash over her. The scent of fresh flowers, mingled with the aroma of their delicious meal, only added to the sense of magic and wonder that filled the air. "Love, this is truly amazing," Derrick said, his eyes shining with admiration as he surveyed the table. "How could you do this to me?" "W

Lyra found herself in a dark dream. It was eerie and bizarre. At first, she wasn’t sure if it was in fact a dream, but as she looked around, she knew that it was a nightmare. But it was weird that she was able to think about that in the middle of her dream. Knowing that she was dreaming inside of her own nightmare had never happened to her before. But maybe her mind just took that jump when she realized that she was back in her old apartment, the same place she had left behind years ago. Her room looked exactly the same. She even had the same hard pillow that had been there every night to catch all her tears. The scent around her was the same: musty, with a hint of cheap floral cologne that was coming from Wendy’s room. It was as awful as she remembered. A true hell that she wants to escape. Suddenly, she heard a strange whisper that seemed to come from nowhere. "Lyra," the whisper said, "Aren’t you glad that you're back where it all started?" Lyra turned to see a dark smoke slowly

Zin and Dame sat on the beach, watching Rhian and Raine swim in the ocean from afar. The sound of waves crashing against the shore filled the air, and the smell of sizzling meat from the nearby grill wafted towards them. They were out on a weekend-long vacation, basically thrown into it by Lyra even if they weren't actually willing to go. Yes, they both find it worth while hanging out with Rhian and Raine, having the time for themselves to relax and live as normal human beings, but they still can't just sit around and have fun. They are both thinking about the same thing, worried about their master, the devil, Derrick, who recently received a message from Lucifer summoning him back to hell. As they watched the waves, Zin took a break from his worrying and got up to flip the meat on the grill. He expertly turned the skewers, making sure the meat was cooked to perfection. Dame watched him with admiration, grateful for his friend's skill in grilling. "It smells delicious," Dame comment

Derrick sat in the living room, watching TV, while Lyra was busy cooking lunch for them. News after news of current events that are all full of negativity and darkness came at him all at once, and he immediately wanted to stop it. There are a lot of negative thoughts that have been rushing in and out of his ears, and taking in more from the television was a little bit too much, even for him. As he was flipping through the channels, he suddenly heard a whisper in his ear. It was a voice he knew all too well—the voice of Lucifer."You need to come back home, Derrick," Lucifer whispered.Derrick shook his head, trying to ignore the voice. He knew that listening to Lucifer's whispers never led to anything good. But the voice persisted, growing louder and more insistent."You belong down here, Derrick, and you know that. We can rule together," Lucifer whispered. "If you begin to listen to my orders again, I can show you mercy. I will be able to turn my back and choose to not punish you for

Derrick settled into his seat in the home theater, eager to unwind with a movie after a stressful day. But as the film progressed, he couldn't help but notice something off about Lyra's behavior.Her eyebrows were furrowed as she watched the female lead on the screen cry upon being hurt by her evil uncle. "What a weak and pathetic character," she muttered under her breath. "This woman should just cry and drown in her own tears; what a weak bitch."Lyra was cursing at the screen and muttering under her breath, a far cry from her usual composed and measured demeanor. He tried to ignore it at first, thinking she was just having a bad day, but the behavior continued and even escalated.She scoffed as the female lead begged for mercy, "Seriously? You're just going to beg and cry like a baby? That's not how you handle situations like this. Oh my goodness! This is ranked as one of the best movies this year, and all I feel is irritation and disgust!"Lyra's frustration only grew as the female

"It’s already seven; where is she?""I swear, Zin, they told me that they would be home immediately; they were just in the restaurant; what would take them so long? They can walk from there to here and it will only take an hour.""I think we should have followed Miss Lyra around as well," Zin replied to Dame. "It is much more difficult for us to take good care of her when we are still focused on the office job. It’s going to risk her life even more. We made a really bad decision; I am already calling it." Zin bit his lips and sat back down on the couch, looking out of the window to see the exact moment that the security people and Lyra would arrive back home. "I think it’s better if we just tell her exactly whats happening. It could really be the best option, but we ignored it like a psycho and chose the risky approach.""I know that trusting other people for Miss Lyra’s safety is a little bad for us to do, but it’s a matter that should be stopped by humans, right?" Dame stated. "If s

"It’s been fine," Lyra happily smiled as she spoke with her friend, Rhian. "I know that you two might think that I am lying, but I swear, I am doing a lot better this week. I am trying my best to have my best life.""I know you are really worried because of your relationship with Derrick; Zin has already told me that," Raine joined in as she placed two huge bowls of shaved ice dessert on the table. "He had told me that the two of you had a really bad fight. He asked us to be extra nice to you because you are really sad about it.""Yeah," Lyra lied. "But we were able to talk it out.""Of course, nothing will be resolved when you put time and effort into communicating your real feelings and your true emotions. It’s really great to hear!"Lyra nodded once again. She was not able to tell her friends that everything they were talking about right now were thoughts and pieces of information that appeared out of nowhere. Dame and Zin had informed Lyra one week ago that there was a rumor roami
The Devil's Bride Chapter 148: Pure
"Dame!" Zin rushed inside the mansion with sweat dripping from his forehead. He saw how Dame’s eyes grew big in surprise, and before he could even say anything to him, Zin had already snatched his cold beer and chugged it right in front of him. "What happened to you?" Dame looked around, checking whether there was someone chasing after Zin. However, aside from the beautiful and calm view of the pool behind him, there was nothing. "Why do you look like that?" Is there someone chasing after you? Are you in trouble?" "I don’t think I was being chased," Zin said. Dame rolled his eyes when he answered. "Then why do you have to come in here as if you were about to die or something? You stressed me out within the few seconds that you arrived." He grabbed the bottle of beer from Zin’s hand and took a sip from it as if claiming what was his. "What’s wrong with you then? Were you able to visit Master?" "I did," Zin answered, sitting beside Dame. "I actually did a lot more than that, and I r
The Devil's Bride Chapter 147: Hers
As Zin soared higher in the darkened sky, he marveled at the view before him. The borders of hell and earth were marked by a jagged line of jagged rocks that extended as far as the eye could see. The air was thick with the stench of sulfur, and the sky was a deep shade of crimson that seemed to bleed into the horizon. In the distance, he could see the dark silhouettes of mountains rising up against the fiery sky and the occasional flicker of flames dancing in the abyss. It was a desolate and terrifying landscape, but one that Zin had grown accustomed to over the years. As a demon of hell, he had traveled to the borders many times, but this time felt different, and he couldn't shake the feeling that something was about to go horribly wrong. Going closer to the edge, he felt tightness in his chest. It's always been this way whenever he flew closer to crossing the borders. He could already feel the breeze coming from the land of the living, but his gut feeling seemed to have won that tim
The Devil's Bride Chapter 146: Warning
Elvis sat in his grand office, surrounded by opulence and extravagance. The room was adorned with expensive paintings and rare collectibles, but the air was thick with tension. Wendy, his best partner in crime, sat across from him, her face set in a deep frown. The only sound in the room was the soft ticking of a gold-plated clock on the mantle. Despite the grandeur of the room, there was a sense of foreboding that seemed to permeate every inch of the space. Both knew that they were treading dangerous waters with their plan to bring down Lyra, and the tension between them was palpable.Elvis sat across from Wendy in his office, his eyes locked on hers as he pitched his latest plan."Wendy, I need you on this one," he said, his voice low and urgent."What's the plan, Elvis?" Wendy asked, crossing her arms."We need to bring Lyra down," he said, leaning forward in his seat. "Something that we always do, but this time it's going to work out!"Wendy listened to Elvis with a sense of appre
The Devil's Bride Chapter 145: Wish
Dame was surprised to find Lyra sitting alone in the dark living room with no lights on. He had brought lots of food back to the mansion, hoping to lift her spirits, but seeing her like this made him worried. It was really bad timing that Zin decided to try and go back down to hell that night. Dame could tell, just by the vibes that had hit him straight on, that he wouldn't know how to deal with Lyra like that."Miss Lyra, are you okay?" he asked, placing the bags of food on the coffee table in front of her. He wanted to kick himself in the face. The look in her eyes is the perfect tell that she is not doing alright, but he still chose to ask, just to make her feel bad that it shows. "You know what, let me just get the lights; don’t even bother," he whispered before walking directly to the switch.Lyra looked up at him, her eyes red and puffy from crying. "You are already back?" she asked, confused as she watched the leaves outside the window dance. "It’s already dark outside," she sa
The Devil's Bride Chapter 144: Confess
A black bird flew into Derrick's shoulder as he was calmly watching over the newly appointed demons in his realm. As soon as he was able to look into its eyes, his mouth fell wide open, and his jaw hit the floor beneath him. He won't be able to forget those eyes, and he would never forget how Zin looks when he's in his real form.Immediately, Derrick stood up to snap his fingers in the air, and without waiting for another second, they were inside a dark room. Derrick's own little space whenever he wanted to stay out of everyone's sight. His only hiding spot from all the demons that would often try to bombard him with a bunch of questions or sometimes the yells of those souls who were being punished."What are you doing here?" he immediately asked. Right before his eyes, he watched as Zin transformed into his human form to hug him. "Zin, is there something going on? Why are you back here? You crossed the borders again?""Master, it doesn't matter right now," he said, still clinging on
The Devil's Bride Chapter 143: Partners
Derrick paced back and forth on his desolate throne in hell, tormented by the images and thoughts invading his mind. He kept seeing Lyra, his beloved wife, surrounded by sinister figures and cloaked in shadows. The more he tried to push the visions away, the more they persisted. Even if he knew that he'd only bring chaos into Lyra's life, he found out that he wouldn't be able to give it up that quickly. Especially after he spent an entire month's worth of time in hell reminiscing about the moments they had together."My dear, please be safe out there," he whispered, wishing that it was only the thoughts in his head that kept on messing him up and not real visions or premonitions of what was happening or what was supposed to come for Lyra in the land of the living. If that was the case and he's stuck down in the depths of nothingness, he will for sure not be able to move forward. He is afraid of what he might end up doing just to stop that."I do not need much," he stated. "I only need
The Devil's Bride Chapter 142: Daughter
Lyra sat at the breakfast table, pushing her food around with her fork as Zin and Dame bid her farewell. "We'll be back as soon as we can, Miss Lyra," Zin said, giving her a reassuring smile. "Take care of yourself," Dame added, placing a hand on Lyra's shoulder. "If you need anything, just call us." Lyra forced a small smile. "Thanks, guys. I'll be fine. I just need some rest, that's all." Zin and Dame exchanged a worried glance before Zin spoke up. "Are you sure you don't want us to stay? We can handle the hotel issues later." Lyra shook her head. "No, it's fine. You guys go ahead. I'll take care of myself." As they gathered their things and made their way out of the mansion, Lyra was left alone with her thoughts. She couldn't shake the conversation she had with Lucifer out of her head, and the more she thought about it, the more uneasy she felt. "I can't believe he would do something like that," she muttered to herself, her voice barely above a whisper. "Why would he want to
