Demian

Sully was sitting on the couch, her knees bent and tucked under her thighs. Her hands were shaking. Her eyes were closed. She was burning up.

“Sully,” I called, cupping her face. Her skin was very hot.

After we returned from the library, a fever took over and she had been in bed since then. She refused to go to have dinner. I sneaked in some bread and soup. She drank a spoonful of soup and ran to the bathroom to throw up.

Then, she sat on the couch and refused to move. It had been a long time since then. She had not moved an inch. She groaned occasionally and called my name, but that was it.

I called the maids and made them bring me a bowl of ice-cold water and a small piece of cloth. I sent them back again.

I sat beside her, wet the cloth and wiped her face with it. I undressed her and wiped her entire body with it. I had never taken care of anyone before. However, I was surprised to find that I did not find it uncomfortable. A little foreign, but that was to be expected since it was

    I woke up in the middle of the night, naked under the blanket, and in Demian’s arms. I was sweaty and it was too hot.Demian was sleeping. Or, at least, he appeared to be asleep. I squirmed. I was always uncomfortable about sweat. Demian did not sweat much since he was a vampire. I also never sweated much. Now that I was sweaty, I felt disgusted.“Demian…,” I whispered. He opened his eyes so fast that it scared me.“You are awake,” he said. His voice was calm and emotionless, like most of the time. He was always so to the point that he sounded emotionless.“I am sweaty,” I said. He was holding me too tight. I could not even pull my arms out of the blanket. “I smell.”“It’s not a bad smell,” he said, unwrapping the blanket like I was a present. He touched my forehead. “The fever subsided, that’s why you are sweaty.”“I can’t remember anything.”“I don’t expect you to.”Demian opened the windows. I felt better when the cold air of the night touched my naked skin.The memory of what Alex

    There was no funeral for Kiara. It was because Kiara’s mother Clarissa’s family never held a funeral. Dela said that Clarissa insisted on not holding a funeral and Alexander was happy to oblige. He did not like to bother about such things anyway.At breakfast, I felt disgusted. I could barely look at anyone. I did not, not once, as much as glance at Alexander because I would not be able to look at him without glaring. That would be a horrendous thing to do, knowing Alexander’s madness. He might torture me, skin me alive for all I knew.Dela talked a lot, like she always did. Most of it was directed towards me, unfortunately. For that reason, I could not stay quiet, even if I wanted to.“I must say, Sully, we should go and shop to our heart’s extent,” Dela said. By ‘we’, she meant me, her and Rosalia. “You look pale these days. If we go out, it will lighten up your mood.”“Please accept my thanks, Mother,” I said with a smile even though I felt like crying. I did not want to be here. I

    I had seen this room only once. It was a big spacious place with a piano in the middle. In front of the piano was a leather bench.Demian closed the door behind us noiselessly and led me towards the piano with a hand on the small of my back.There was a piano at House Star as well, which was for my mother. She could play well. Sierra also could play. Sometimes she and mother used to play together while the three of us- Selina, Jace and me- would listen, sitting on the floor beside the piano. We would even dance sometimes like the crazy little children we were. We used to be more alike when we were little. Then we grew older and developed different personalities. Selina grew quieter and I became too suspicious of everything to enjoy the little things like music. I was busy rebelling against the injustice towards women. I was mentally suffering because by then, I knew that the next head would be Kyle and I did not want that. Only Jace remained the same- kind, loyal and loving.Yet, as I

    Sully moved her body like a snake- a snake with curves in all the right places. Her movements were fluid, without a hint of doubt or hesitation. She danced like she was lost in the music. Her body appeared to have a mind of its own.She moved her hips seductively, her chest rising and falling with the rhythm of the music. I wanted to grab her, kiss her and make her mine once more and again and again. I wanted to touch the silky-smooth skin of hers and squeeze her curves.I tried to control my desires. She was dancing and I wanted to see her dance, while also a part of me wanted to fuck her senseless. There was a tent at the front of my pants. My cock wanted a taste of her and could barely wait. It was restless, just like part of me was.Sully’s face was flushed and she was a little sweaty. She was not smiling. In fact, there was something natural about the expression on her face.I had never been jealous before. But at this moment I was of the men who had watched her dance like this b

    Demian pounded inside me so hard and mercilessly that it was hard for me to breathe.“You are so fucking tight. You are clenching on my cock,” Demian grunted. His voice was making me want him even more.I held on to the piano for my dear life. A shudder went through me as I came. But Demian was nowhere near finishing. He kept going on and on. I wanted to beg him to stop.But I did not. Because deep down, I wanted it too. I wanted him to drive me crazy and make me want him even more. I could never get enough of him.Demian’s cock was reaching too far inside me, making me shudder with every thrust. His fingers were digging on my hips.He bent over me and pushed my hair away from my shoulder. I knew what he would do, yet when his sharp fangs drove into my flesh, I let out a scream.It was too much.“Demian…,” I moaned. “Please…”Demian sucked my blood without stopping. His hips were moving with the same rhythm as before, if not more intensely. I felt lightheaded. Whenever Demian drank my

    I had given Alexander an antidote which worked just a little bit, or at least, made him believe that it worked. I still did not know why Demian Silverclaw, his own son, poisoned him. If I could meet Sully and talk to her, even for a short while, I could know. Sully always had ways of knowing things.Alexander would not let me return since I might disclose the fact that he was sick and dying. My suspicion was that he would kill me within a few days, when he would be sure that the antidote was working properly.I walked along the path of the garden, my feet not making a sound. The night was cold. I ran a hand through my hair.“Fuck this place,” I muttered under my breath. I had never seen an estate look as dead as House Silverclaw. The people here were strange as well. A woman cried under that huge Cherry Blossom tree every single day. Another woman strolled the garden with her maids every day as well. Sometimes I saw Sully from the balcony with a white-haired beautiful woman. That was

    When Demian and I had a fight, I wanted nothing more than to find solace in Leo’s company. Besides, I had been wanting to meet him for a long time. I could just talk to him when Theodore or Demian was present. I could not talk to Leo freely or he with me that way.I needed to have him alone.I told Demian this and he agreed. He was a little surprised that I talked to him after he behaved that way with me. I had my suspicion that just because he was overwhelmed by his feelings, he wanted to push me away. But that was not happening. I got what I wanted. If it was Demian I wanted, I would have him. He was insecure, but I was not. At least, not about what I wanted. I lied, sure, but that did not mean I always lied. He was clearly trying to push me away.After talking to Leo for a very long time, I returned to the place where Demian was waiting for me. I found him right there.I suspected that he would follow me and eavesdrop our conversation. He probably did that too, but Leo and I talked

    I sat in the tub, feeling the warm water on my skin, soothing me. I felt sleepy, but for some reason, I did not dare close my eyes.Demian’s words still rang in my head. The way he said those things.“You can never escape me. You can lie all you want. But you will forever be mine. Mine only.”Demian was not the type to say such things. Or at least, I had hoped so. He sounded manic and obsessive.Honestly, when I thought about giving Demian my virginity, I never thought about what that would result in. I did it because I wanted him and I was attracted to him, like I was never attracted to anyone before. Sometimes, if I had seen someone good-looking, I might want him, but that was only for a short amount of time. Besides, I never actively tried to get close to those men. I used to observe from afar. But with Demian being in front of me all the time, I could barely resist him. I could not hide the fact that I craved him. I wanted him to have all of me and make me feel a kind of pleasure

    I felt a sense of calmness and relief take over me as I entered the familiar chamber once again that I shared with Demian. My eyes wandered over the bed where Demian and I slept and did many thing together, the couch where I would sit with Demian’s head on my lap and ran my fingers through his long straight hair.“It went well, didn’t it?” I said to Demian with a smile.Demian had a strange look on his face. He turned to me and traced the scar on my face with his index finger.“You can pretend very well,” he murmured as if to himself.I gulped. “Demian, I am not pretending with you. Not you. You… are different. I don’t want to be a fake version of me with you,” I said.“Will you truly be yourself? And never lie to me? Never?”“Never,” I said quietly.“Good, because if you lie…”‘If I lie, then what? What will you do? Will you hurt me?’But I did not ask it out loud. Demian was too honest. I did not want to hear the answer. In fact, I felt a hint of fear inside me when I anticipated wh

    My arms were aching. My whole body was aching. Still, I stood straight with Demian’s arm around my shoulder possessively in the presence of none other than Alexander Silverclaw.I was not look up into his silver eyes, but I could feel them piercing my skin.“Look at me,” he ordered. And I did.My fingers were trembling. I did not get scared easily, but this man scared me. He made me feel trivial and powerless.Alexander grabbed me by the chin, not too forcefully, yet not gently either.“What happened here?” he asked.“My f-father…,” I mumbled.“Your father? Jade Star did this?”I nodded.Demian had already told Alexander most of the things, but he wanted to hear it from me for some reason.I glanced at Demian who understood what I was trying to do without me having to say a word. He dropped his hand from my shoulder and undid the ribbons on the back. I did not take off the dress, but undid it from the back only. I turned around and showed my bare back to Alexander.“Why did your fathe

    During the journey, what Demian and I mostly did was talking. We did not have anything else to do. And when Demian talked, or listened to me, at least, he did not have that look on his face- the look that for some reason, send shivers down my spine.“When did you think that God is not real?” Demian asked. “Your family is very religious, after all. It’s only normal to be brought up to believe in God in that kind of family.”“I suppose it’s when I started to be able to form my own thoughts,” I answered. “Perhaps I was seven or eight, at that time, when I could form thoughts without them being influenced by my environment. I simply did not see the point of praying to a God that did not truly listen. I stopped praying then. Father would force me to go to the temple and I would pretend to pray, but that was just it. I only pretended. It was not real.“What about you? Have you ever wondered whether an entity like God exist?” I asked.Demian shook his head. “I am from a family that is as far

    I had never, not in a million years, thought I would get to see my family again. By family, I meant my mother, Selina and Jace. Sierra was in another kingdom. I never thought about seeing her. We were never close, but we were not distant either. I had no intention of ever seeing Father and Kyle again. I did not know what I would do if I saw any of them.I was selfish and I loved myself. I could never bear it when someone hurt me.I sometimes dreamed of shooting an arrow into Father’s chest. I must admit that it felt rather good.Demian and I took a shortcut through the forest. It was dangerous, but Demian was awfully too brave. He said I would be safe if I were with him.“Just physically?” I joked. “Not mentally or psychologically.”He had said nothing, causing me to feel a strange sense of fear when I looked into his silver eyes. Most of the time, Demian was nice. He did not hurt me or said something that would hurt me.But there were times when Demian would look at me in a certain w

    The ship reached our kingdom once again. Demian and I got down the ship with our belongings, which were not too many things.First of all, we went to an inn to eat something. I was hungry. Even though the ship was luxurious, the food had not been that good. Besides, I could barely eat anything with the constant movement of the ship.We took our horses and gave them to the son of the innkeeper who would feed the horses and brush them.We were served a beef stew with quite a lot of beef in it and bread to soak it up with. The bread was not stale, fortunately. Demian and I ate slowly, enjoying each bite.After we were done eating, Demian paid the innkeeper while I waited outside.Someone touched my shoulder and I almost screamed.“Selina!” Without thinking, I wrapped my arms around my sister, hugging her tightly. It had been so long since I had last seen her.She was wearing the usual priestess’s attire like she always did since the moment she began devoting her life to God. When we pull

    All day long, Mother sat on her balcony and watched ships come and go. I sometimes urged her to take a walk with me in the garden, or down the streets, but she never took me up on my offers. She would smile and say that she was fine where she was.I brought a doctor to take a look at her. The doctor said that Mother should not remain idle all the time. It was making her body weak. She needed to walk at least for an hour each day.Mother did not listen to the doctor, or to me, or to anyone.Jace and I arrived two days ago. These two days, all she did was sit by the window and watch the ships like a little child who was fascinated by it.“My daughter will return in one of those ships,” Mother would say to everyone who went near her.“Sully is not here, Mother. She will not come back,” Jace said many times. We believed that Sully had settled her life somewhere far away and in a quiet place and was never going to come back. It was better that way as long as she was happy wherever she was.

    Hearing about Sully’s condition and what Father did to her made me disgusted. At that moment, I hated Father more than I ever hated anyone before. And I pitied my sister. I was worried about her.I knew that Father would be angry about Sully’s lost maidenhood. But I never thought he would take it that far. I never could imagine that he could hurt his own daughter like that.‘You knew he hurt Millie. But you never did anything. You knew about it all. You saw how he slapped her, hit her with a cane and sometimes whipped her. You saw it all, but you acted like a blind man. You acted like you did not see anything. You pretended like you did not know anything just to avoid any kind of confrontation or responsibility,’ a voice inside my head said.But then again, Millie was an illegitimate daughter unlike Sully.‘There is no difference. You know it very well.’I tried to shake the voice out of my head.“Do you think she truly went to another kingdom like Father thinks she did?” Selina asked

    This ship was better than the one I took with Leo and Rose before. This one looked much luxurious. The cabin we got was quite big. The bed was meant for two and the sheet and covers were clean.Demian talked to the captain while I looked around our cabin. At least, I did not have to worry about catching skin diseases here, sleeping under the covers.I was truly going back with Demian. There was no turning back now. I had chosen this.Sometimes I wondered what would have happened if I did not want to go back with Demian. Would he have forced me to come with him?I did not know. I did not want to know the answer, lest it should make feel bad. Besides, I knew what kind of person Demian was. He might be better than Alexander, but in the end, they were similar in many ways. I could not expect him to change himself, not after the way he had to grow up. He had to kill his own twin brother. That kind of thing was bound to mess up someone’s conscience. It was a surprise that Demian had not tur

    It was raining a bit. Demian brought us two horses which would take us to the port. We were to take a ship back to our kingdom. It would take a long time, but that was okay.The two horses were huge and black. They were not just like big horses. They were monstrous in size and look.“Where did you get them?” I asked.“They look like you brought them from hell,” Lloid said, who was a moderately religious person.“This one is mine,” Demian said, patting the one which was bigger than the other. “I brought him with me.”“On a ship?” I asked.“He did not like it, but that was the only way. I like this horse,” Demian said. Only Demian would bring a horse all the way from another kingdom.“What’s his name?” I asked.“Thunder,” Demian answered.“That’s majestic. He looks majestic,” I murmured. Indeed, Thunder looked like a horse that carried a conqueror on her back.Demian and I started our journey in the afternoon. We did not want anyone to see us, so we waited until it got dark. The port wa
