The Devil's Bride Chapter 108: Shift
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
The Devil's Bride Chapter 109: Gone
Derrick had been feeling increasingly anxious and unsettled since last night. His conversations with Lucifer had left him on edge, and he couldn't shake the feeling that something was off with Lyra. He knew that he couldn't keep her completely shielded from the demonic world, but he couldn't help feeling guilty and responsible for any negative changes in her behavior.That morning, Derrick woke up early, unable to sleep. He quietly slipped out of bed and got dressed, trying not to wake Lyra. As he made his way to the door, he hesitated, looking back at her sleeping form. He knew that he needed some space and time to clear his head, but he couldn't bear the thought of leaving her without a word.In the end, he decided to leave a note on the bedside table, explaining that he had some urgent business to attend to and that he would be back soon. He hoped that she would understand and not worry too much.As he stepped out of the mansion and into the cool morning air, he felt a pang of guil
The Devil's Bride Chapter 110: Minds
Derrick couldn't shake off the feeling of guilt as he wandered the hotel corridors, his mind consumed by thoughts of Lyra. He knew he had to leave, but he couldn't bring himself to face her and explain why. He knew he had hurt her by leaving without a word, and the guilt weighed heavily on him. He couldn't help but wonder if he had made a mistake by leaving her alone without any explanation. He vowed to make things right and to never let her down again; he just needs to know that it's going to be alright. After he resolves everything, his life is going back to where it was.He tried to shake off the feeling and focus on finding a solution to his problem, but his thoughts kept drifting back to Lyra. He couldn't bear the thought of her being sad, and he wished he could take back what he had done.Derrick sat alone in a hotel room two towns away. He really made sure that he was far enough from her. He closed his eyes and tried to mentally call out to Zin and Dame. He knew that both of th
The Devil's Bride Chapter 111: Zin
Dame and Zin were sitting in the living room, lounging around. The tension in the room was palpable, and Dame kept trying to break the silence, thinking about what Zin was trying to tell him earlier. He tried to connect with him mentally; however, Zin made sure that he wouldn't succeed with it, closing his mind to anyone else, even Derrick."Zin, what is going on?" Dame asked for the umpteenth time. He rolled his eyes and looked at the stairs leading to the rooms on the second floor. "Miss Lyra has been inside their room for a long time now. What do you fear? She won't be able to hear us from here. What do you want to tell me earlier?"Zin shifted in his seat, his eyes darting around the place nervously. "I don't know, Dame. I just have a bad feeling about all of this." He looked into Dame's eyes as if he should realize something from his words.Dame frowned. "What kind of bad feeling?" he asked. "Also, stop rolling your eyes at me as if I should have gotten it by now when you haven't
The Devil's Bride Chapter 112: Past
Lyra woke up with a smile on her face, the remnants of her dream still fresh in her mind. She lay in bed for a few minutes, savoring the feeling of happiness and love that still lingered within her. She knew that it was just a dream, but it felt so real. It was the perfect thing to take her mind off things. Especially since her eyes are still so puffy from crying so much last night, it was the best way to save her mental state. It was not as bad anymore, now that she had the slightest hint of hope. As she got out of bed and began to get ready for the day, she couldn't help but think about Derrick visiting her in her dream. She was uncertain if this was Derrick’s doing. She wasn’t even sure if he had the ability to do so, but she was still happy about it. It only made her believe that no matter what happened, the connection between them was stronger than she thought. When she made her way downstairs to the kitchen, she found Zin and Dame cooking breakfast. "Good morning, Miss Lyra!
The Devil's Bride Chapter 113: Fears
Lyra finished the last online business meeting with Dame and Zin, feeling exhausted. She leaned back in her chair and let out a long sigh. "I'm so tired," she said, rubbing her eyes. Dame shrugged and said, "You’ve done a ton of meetings this afternoon. I think you are prone to experiencing something like that since you have worked too hard, Miss Lyra. You need a break." Zin nodded in agreement. He took a deep breath, trying to control himself from talking about really negative stuff, just as he and Dame had promised not to do anything to even hint at it, and he wanted to make sure that he also did the same. So, he did his best to change the topic whenever he felt like his talkative tongue wanted to slip up. "Speaking of breaks, you still haven’t told us about what you did when we were out on that weekend trip," he said. "Tell me, Miss Lyra, why did you make me and Dame go with Rhian and Raine that time?" "Why? What’s wrong with it?" she asked. "I thought it was a great idea. You
The Devil's Bride Chapter 114: Knock
Derrick sat on the edge of the bed in his hotel room, scrolling through the photos on his phone. He came across a picture of him and Lyra laughing and holding hands. The photos that he took of her eating, casually sitting, and watching something on her phone made him chuckle. Although most of the photos were blurry since he wasn’t well aware of the proper ways to snap photos yet. The last one in his gallery was a shot of Lyra peacefully sleeping like a beautiful angel on her pillow, the same night he decided to leave. He couldn't help but smile at the memory."The space between us had been killing me endlessly," he whispered as he zoomed into her lips. "I knew that this was going to be tough on my end, but I did not expect it to be this difficult." Derrick sighed as he swiped back to the top of the folder just so he could look at her face for even longer. Staring at it for three whole days was not enough."I hope you have been eating well, my love," he said. "Don’t worry, I am doing f
The Devil's Bride Chapter 115: Trio
Rhian and Raine were busy in the kitchen, putting the finishing touches on the dishes they had been preparing for the past hour. Rhian was carefully garnishing a plate of seared scallops while Raine was slicing fresh herbs for the pasta dish they were featuring that day. The kitchen was filled with the warm aroma of herbs and spices and the sound of sizzling pans and clanging utensils. Their employees have been seen to be perfectly understanding each other; the synchronization that they have while doing their specific tasks without affecting or bothering others is a true measure that they have finally mastered the space and the work. Rhian and Raine could agree, everything is much easier now than on the first day when they were so clueless and helpless. As they were in the middle of their preparations, Lyra suddenly walked in, surprising them both. "Hey, pretty girls!" Lyra greeted them with a low voice, doing her best impression of a mediocre male who wants to act cool and hip. "I t
