Despite searching everywhere, the demon guards came back empty-handed. They couldn't trace the maid who spiked the water pitcher.
"How can she disappear just like that? Based on what I heard, she is just a normal palace maid without any powers of her own. She is just a normal demon woman, plain and simple. She must be hiding somewhere. Search her relative's houses and ask her friends and acquaintances as well. Search her entire village and don't leave any house or even the wilderness around that village. I want you to find her as soon as possible" Baron commanded the demon guards, who bowed their heads and left in search of the maid.
Lucas is thoughtful after he learned that the maid is nowhere to be found. He is standing beside Baron near the training area. It's noon but they still couldn't find any clues about that maid who ran away. That indicates only one thing.
"I think she is not doing all of this alone. There must be someone else inside this palace for wh
After the library door closed after Belial, Lola relaxed. She looked at Lucas with a soft expression in her eyes."You said you will not let anyone find out that you are the one who is tormenting Belial" she pointed out.Lucas is still furious. He wanted to kill that demon for insulting Lola like that. But when her voice penetrated the haze of his anger, he softened a little. He turned towards her with a smirk."I said I will not let anyone find out about this, but I never said anything about keeping Belial in the dark. No one knows that it's me who did that to him and his ego will not let him reveal that to anyone either" he pointed out.Lola shook her head at his logic. She was in shock when Belial began to speak like that. He was so sure that he is going to marry her, which did not make any sense. If it comes to that, she prefers to stay single for the rest of her life than marry him.Lucas is on edge. When he heard that Ba*tard speak badly abou
"Are you satisfied?" he asked her. Lola sighed and nodded her head. Just then the library door opened and a couple of guards appeared along with the minister Abaddon. Lucas shifted away before anyone could notice his presence. Lola frowned with disappointment, but the minister who walked inside with a concerned frown grabbed her attention. "Minister Abaddon, is there anything I can help you with?" Lola asked politely. He is standing rigidly with a hint of impatience. His eyes are blazing with something close to anger. "Princess, minister Belial is injured again. This time his injury is...." Abaddon hesitated. Lola patiently waited for him to continue. She understood he must be angry with the person who is hurting his dear friend Belial. It's not a secret that Minister Abaddon and Belial are close. They both are often seen chatting with each other. "His injury seems to be severe" he said, unable to explain what kin
"You don't know where she is?" Lucas asked the demon girl standing in front of him with a blank face. The girl shook her head, too scared to talk in front of him. His intimidating presence is scaring her more than the minister standing beside him. Lucas is losing his patience. She is the 12th maid they are interrogating, and just like the eleven maids before her, this one is repeating the same thing. Lucas rubbed his temples with impatience. He is losing his cool here. The longer this mystery person stays hidden the more dangerous it would be for Lola. They cannot guess from where he might attack and in which way. The thought of something happening to Lola is making him anxious. He never felt like this about another person before. This is the first, and that in itself is telling him that she is special to him. She made a place for herself in his mind and heart with her mischievous and harmless pranks. He likes everything about her. He got used to her be
"Do you know anything about the previous Lord or something about his family or anything related to him?" Lucas asked Baron.Baron's eyes widened with shock at the directness of the question asked. Lucifer is known for his ruthlessness and cruelty in the past. After Lucifer fell from grace, he fell directly into the underworld. Even though he no longer is an angel, he still held immense powers with him. The entire underworld shook from his anger. He destroyed anything and everything in his way. One such casualty is the then lord of the underworld, Haden. His entire family was killed at the hands of Lucifer and his associates.Lucifer used to carry so much hatred and anger inside him, he used to make others suffer because of his volatile emotions. Everyone used to walk on eggshells when they are around him.Every world suffered the consequence of his anger. But when he went to destroy the fairly land, he met a woman there. They had a brief affair, resu
Belial is sitting on his bed in his chamber with a grim expression. His eyes are red with anger and his fists are clenched. He wanted to kill Lucas for humiliating him like this. After Lucas kicked him, Belial crawled out of the library feeling pathetic. He didn't realise that his manhood is dripping blood until a maid pointed out with laughter. Soon the guards and the other maids gathered around him. Everyone began to laugh at him when they realised what is happening.'Looks like he is not a man, he is a eunuch. No wonder our princess never showed interest in him''Oh my, why is he bleeding like a woman?''He is coming from inside the library. Looks like he tried something with the princess and she taught him a good lesson ''So it's true what people used to whisper about him. He is indeed a womanizer''Serves him right. He will never underestimate our princess again 'They began to ridicule Belial and laugh at him without carin
Lola is swimming near the shallow parts of the river, mindful not to go to the deeper side. The demon servant is waiting near the shore, carefully holding her mistress's clothes. Neither of them noticed a cloaked person lurking in the shadows. When the maid is distracted, that person came up behind her and snapped the demon's neck to one side.The maid lifelessly fell on the muddy shore, with her eyes wide open. The cloaked person then collected the maid's body along with the clothes of the princess and silently slipped away from there undetected.When Lola began to feel numb by soaking longer in the water and the water began to get cold, she decided to come out. But when she searched for the maid, she didn't find her anywhere."Shangi?" Lola called for her, but only silence greeted her.Lola frowned. This has never happened before and she began to feel uneasy.'Shangi never leaves me alone. Then where is she now? And where are my cloth
The moment Lucas shifted into his dragon form, every single demon in the vicinity screamed with fear. They rushed out of his way to avoid being stamped on by the huge dragon feet. But Lucas didn't stay there long. The moment he shifted into his dragon form, he flew away in a blink of their eyes.To the people of the underworld, dragons are a myth. Even though they heard about dragons, No one saw one before. Everyone is amazed to see one but scared as well. They all could sense the raw power of Lucas, as his power is coming from him in waves. They guessed he is not a human, but they never thought he might be a dragon.If they did, then they might have been more careful around him. He can destroy the entire royal palace in just a minute, and he wouldn't even drop a sweat doing that.Soon, this news began to spread all around the palace and even Belial got to hear this news. He is shocked to hear that."What? He is a dragon?" Belial asked his friend Ab
When Lola pulled him towards her, he understood what she wants. So without making it much more difficult for her, he laid down on top of her, mindful not to crush her with all of his weight. When she relaxed in his hold, he changed their position and made her sleep on him instead. He wrapped the discarded quilt over them and began to infuse her body with his dragon heat so that she would recover faster.He never liked the taste of fear. She is the one who introduced him to the feeling of fear. He experienced it for the first time when he heard from her father that she is unwell. Since then it refused to leave him. He is scared that something might happen to her and the person who is trying to kill her will become the reason.When he couldn't find her anywhere in the palace, fear gripped him in its unyielding grip and refused to let go. He was just a second away from killing someone when he heard her scream. Her unconscious body floating on the water is something he sti

To date, not a
Lucian began to court Faiya, which Lucas didn't like at all. "He is trying to win her over" he grumbled one day with his wife Lola. Lola laughed at his anxiety. "Why are you so against it anyway? She came of age and he already asked your permission for this. You agreed then with the condition that he should not court her untill she turns eighteen. Now when she turned eighteen and he is trying softly to win her heart, you don't look like you are liking it at all" she pointed out. Lucas grumbled with displeasure. Lucian asked his permission for Faiya's hand a few years ago. He know Faiya dosent like Lucian much. So Lucas agreed thinking that his daughter is never going to accept Lucian because she doesn't like him. But now, she doesn't look like she hates him anymore. He dosent want to know what Lucian is doing to soften her towards him. "She is still young" he said instead. Lola smiled at him softly. "She might look younger to you, but she is an adult now. She can take her own de
Faiya noticed Lucian coming closer. She panicked and fled from the ballroom where the party is being hosted. Lucian smirked and closely followed after her.Faiya ran out of the ballroom and out towards the courtyard. She knows he will find her if she runs into her bed-chamber. Lucian is very talented. He has the talent to unlock any lock in seconds. Once she made the mistake of hiding in her bed-chamber. But he unlocked the door and walked in, effectively trapping her. She ran into a dark corner and hid behind a tree with thick branches. She hid there for a few minutes. When she didn't hear any approaching footsteps, she peeked from behind the tree and came face to face with her tormentor.She gasped with shock when she saw him standing right in front of her. With each deep intake of her breath, her breasts are touching his hard chest.She tried to move away from him, but he wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her beck into him, leaving little to no space between their bodies
Epilogue 1, Sneak peak FIFTEEN YEARS later.. Today little Faiya turned 18. Lucas and Lola arranged a big party for her. Faiya is innocent. Lucas is too protective of his daughter. The little physical training she received is because of her mother's insistence. 'She doesn't need to train so hard' This is what Lucas always complains about whenever he finds his daughter training. 'She has to ' This is how Lola replies. Even though Lucas never liked it, he couldn't say no to his wife. Thus Faiya is trained in the art of fighting with weapons. But that's where it began and it ended. Lucas sheltered her and never let her see the bad and worst around the world. Faiya always looks at the world optimistically. She tries to see only the good in people. Even though she is pampered, she is not spoiled. She respects everyone, no matter their status. But as much as she is pampered, the same cannot be said for her little brother who is three years younger than her. Lucas forced him to trai
Lola giggled at his comment.Ares sat beside her. His body is weak and he is sure he will not live to see the sunrise the next morning. So he came to spend some time with his son and daughter-in-law. "A few years ago, all types of women used to flirt with me and I used to get annoyed by their behavior. It's not like I will ever miss those days, it was like a nightmare. It was quite difficult to navigate at a party or a gathering without being flirted with and surrounded by women. None of them wanted to have a meaningful conversation with me. It was so tiring" he shared with a wince when he remembered those days.Lola giggled at his experience. "Must be hard" she commented.Ares chuckled when he remembered how he had to hide in the bathroom just to get rid of a clingy woman at a party."You have no idea" he agreed.They shared a laugh at his expense, before becoming quiet."You are sad" he pointed out what he noticed earlier.Lola looked at her open palms with a dull face."I will m
In the human world, Lola met Nyra and Bella for the first time. The three of them became fast friends soon after. Drake, Blaze, and Lucas were chatting with Ares and Michael. Lucifer joined them as well. Faiysha is happy that everything she planned for the fairy world is fulfilled. All the three protectors accepted their responsibilities happily and she doesn't have to worry about anyone or anything. She can leave this life and start a new one with full of hope and lots of love."What are you thinking?" Ares asked Fayisha.She diverted her gaze away from her children and gave her full attention to the man whom she loves with all her heart."They all are happy" she pointed out.Ares looked at the people whom his wife loves like her own children. All six of them are laughing and joking with each other. They look happy and carefree. No one would think that they are the powerful rulers of the fairy world. They look like normal people, not the kings and queens that they are."That I can se
After taking care of Lucifer, Lucas came back to the corridor where Belial is. Once pristine corridor is now filled with blood, gore and bodies. Dillon, Valmore and Baron are fighting against Belial. But even being singled out, Belial is effortlessly fighting the three of them off. The three of them are injured, but none of them refused to retreat. They kept fighting, even though their bodies are begging them to stop.Lucas walked closer, which Belial and the others noticed. Belial tried to run away, but Dillon remembered what his brother-in-law wanted him to do earlier. So he spilt the oil from the oil lamp beside him in Belial's path, so that he would slip and fall. Just like Lucas thought, Belial didn't notice the oil in his haste to run away. He stepped his foot on the oil and fell down. Dillon, Valmore and Baron moved aside, giving space for Lucas to take care of Belial. When Belial saw that Lucas is standing right in front of him, he picked up his sword which slipped from his
They say we don't understand the real value of anyone or anything until we lose it. Lucifer is now regretting everything he did which led to his fall."Are you not satisfied yet Belial? You fed me nonsense and I believed it. As a result, I was disappointed in his grace and fell from the sky. What are you trying to do? We had everything back then. But you made me push everything away. Now, after so many years, you are trying to kill me? I always believed you and trusted you. But you played with my trust. Why? What do you want?" Lucifer asked with anger, as the foul taste of Belial's betrayal is making him feel nostalgic.Belial snorted mockingly."Power, I wanted power. You are powerful yet so humble. I wanted to become a god as well. But I was never given a chance to become one. Faiysha was younger than us. But yet she was given a chance and was blessed to become a goddess. Now, look at what happened. That silly woman fell in love with Ares and ruined his life as well. He was so power
Belial pulled Lucifer out of his chamber, while his eyes constantly monitoring his surroundings. He is not so shocked to see the demon guards materializing from the shadows in the once empty corridors. Now the palace is not empty. Every single corridor is filled with warriors who are ready to kill Belial at any given moment. The quiet surrounds are now filled with tension so thick, that it could be sliced with a knife.Belial is tense as well. He never thought he would be tricked like this. He knows no one would dare to hurt him as long as he has his saber aimed around Lucifer's neck. He is outnumbered. If not for Lucas and Lucifer, he can easily take care of these warriors. But Lucas is more powerful than Belial and it's impossible to win him in a one-on-one fight against him.Lucas is quietly following Belial and is waiting for an opportunity to strike. He saw how red Lucifer turned as soon as the holy water touched him. He can see that his father-in-law is in so much pain. Lucas no
