Chapter: I Am Happy Now-IIThe guests had filled the entrance of the castle faster than how a fire would spread. Colors filled the white walls as not a single place inside was missed from being decorated. Some of the guests gladly greeted Dominic and his wife, Rose. They had acknowledge her soon and even called Dominic “duke”. As soon after the incident, Dominic ruled out is father’s death and take over the duchy, being the new ruler of his fief. “Congratulation on your marriage, I apologize for being late with my words of happiness, Duke Dominic,” said one of the guest, Mr. Hanggs. “It’s nice to see you too, madam Rose.”“Pleasure to meet you,” Rose greeted the man’s words back. “How is the land now to you, Mr. Hanggs?” Dominic asked the wise man who seemed to be quiet. “It does feel different now. I gradually found people who could suddenly fill empty barrel with water as miracle instead of fearing them. I’m also glad to see how wise our King is as he had rooted off all the corrupted royals.

Chapter: I Am Happy Now-IThe ground shook and the impact of the explosion launched both Dominic and Rose backward. When Rose couldn’t hold him tighter anymore, she almost slipped from his back and fell. Seeing that, Dominic changed to his human form, capturing her body even though he was on air and shielded her in a tight hug as they roll down across the cold floor with a harsh thud. Both Shawn and Gallahan was thrown backward. They tried to nail their feet on the floor to no avail as the extreme explosion would had destroyed the entire land if not because of the shield that Gallahan had perfected for years from his life. The entire world turn black for a moment and by the time it turn brighter again, Shawn saw Gallahan who had sprawled across the floor and Balbazor who had been reduced into a scorched human corpse. Even after that however, Balbazor didn’t stop moving. He crawled with his body like a snake, disregarding how his fingers had been turned into ash. No one could ever see his features anymore, o

Chapter: Blow Up-IIIGallahan faced off Balbazor alone. It was a crazy feat to not even die after receiving the harmful attack that was made to eradicate humans and Gallahan’s performance so far have shocked everyone including Balbazor himself. “You are agile,” commented Balbazor. “But if this tentacles weren’t around me, I would have destroyed you in seconds by now.” “Making excuses now? When you killed my family with your curse, you were extremely silent. I’ll put that mouth of yours to rest too,” Gallahan quirked a smirked, urging anger and fuming Balbazor. The ancient demon opened his mouth again but this time, Gallahan had a smarter option. Rather than shielding himself, he rushed forward. Balbazor smiled, thinking how foolish this human is for coming on to him face to face but he was startled as he saw Gallahan had dodged his previous explosion attack. This time, Gallahan murmured a spell and a sharp blue light appeared from his hand which went straight directly to Balbazor’s thick neck. The an

Chapter: Blow Up-II“Brother, are we not related?” Young Shawn’s voice echoed against his ears. Dominic looked down at the child that had overheard the conversation of the adult. Gently he wrapped his fingers around his brother’s little ones and gave him a gentle smile, “Does it matter? Nothing will change even if we aren’t related, you will always be my brother.”Back to the present, Dominic found himself yelling at Shawn’s name as Balbazor had thrown a powerful magic at them. Rose’s eyes snapped open, showing the glistening green eyes of her had changed into purple. At the same time she uttered her spell, the wall broke. Dominic took no chance. He jumped from the staircase, landing down his two feet as a wolf and ran after Shawn. Surprisingly, Gallahan had stood in front of Shawn, shielding them both from the explosion. “I told you to stay away child!” Gallahan yelled to Rose who had rebuilt the wall.“I can help you ease the miasma,” she said, convincing the man only to see him frowning in disagre

Chapter: Blow Up-IWhen Dominic and Rose arrived at the foot of the door, they found that the glow of purple light had stopped and was quickly greeted by the roar of a monster. “It’s Balbazor, the ancient demon,” Rose explained, jumping down from his body. Dominic shook off his fur and turned into his human form, standing right beside her fully clothed. Although there are other pressing matter she couldn’t help and pointed out, “You can be clothed now?” “Hm?” Dominic looked down on himself, “Right I got taught by the other werewolves how to do that the last time we met.” Rose smiled, thinking how surely the relationship between him and his father had evolved into something closer where they could teach and talk to each other eye to eye. Seeing the progress, she felt moved. “Well what is with this Balbazor?” Dominic pushed the door open for her, they both entering the mansion only to feel the ground beneath them shaking. “He is the ancient demon who had formed contract with the first sorceress.

Chapter: Crystal Ball-IIIGallahan wasn’t daunted by the fact that Balbazor was more than fifth fold of him, looking even bigger and monstrous. Shawn could feel that demon had no pity or hesitation on him, willingly killing anyone who stood on his way. For a moment Shawn questioned how he could ever kill this monstrous being in front of him, finding it abhorrent that his entire instinct yelled that killing it would be close to impossible. Even coming near the monster he could feel the brimming heat that would burn his skin. “Shawn,” Gallahan called his attention to make sure the younger man wouldn’t feel daunted and eaten alive by his own fear. Shawn then watched Gallahan who in comparison seemed to be eagerly waiting for this chance to come his hand. It was something he had been waiting for a long time… finally he could avenge the death of his family who all ended due this demon’s twisted curse! “I want to kill you, you won’t even believe how much I have been looking forward to this day.

Chapter: 4-4: Becoming The Food-IVSeeing the two children seated properly at the table was strangely amusing to Jane.Their posture was impeccable, backs straight and utensils held correctly like young nobles taught from birth, yet the moment the food touched their mouths, all traces of elegance crumbled apart instantly. The twins practically devoured the meal with the unconcealed excitement of starving children, cheeks puffed full as they eagerly bit into the steak before them.Sauce stained the corners of their lips.Gabby especially looked moments away from climbing onto the table itself.Jane had to suppress a smile at the sight.The little girl struggled stubbornly with her portion, repeatedly trying to tear through the steak with tiny bites that clearly were not working. Her brows furrowed with deep concentration, as though she was engaged in a fierce battle against the meat itself.In the end, Jane could not watch any longer.“Here,” she said gently, reaching for the utensils. “Let me help you cut it.”Using th

This chance was perfect for her not to spend any more money on Evangeline. "It's not necessary, thank-""Great idea! Would be such a find idea for her to entertain," said her mother and Evangeline was horrified. She pulled her mother by the elbow and her mother swatted her hands away but not giving up, she once again tried and brought her mother away from Adrian. She hushed, "Mama, wearing a gown bought by a man meant allowing them to also take it off." "Where do you learn such idea? That is not true. It was just out of the kindness of his heart!" insisted Mrs Crestmont with a huff. "The Seraphs have their own rules," she tried to teach her mother, hoping she'd listen, "And they are particular about this sort of stuff." "What?" Her mother snapped. "I think that you are not quite right in your mind, Evangeline. Do you think Sir Ive

Chapter: 4-3: Becoming The Food-III“Gabby?” Jane repeated inwardly, turning the name over in her head as they walked. So that must be the little girl’s name. The child had been clinging to the boy’s sleeve the entire time, peeking at Jane every few seconds before hiding again, and somehow the nickname suited her small, round face perfectly.The corridor stretched quietly before them, their footsteps softened by the thick carpet beneath. Jane glanced at the boy beside her before deciding to test her luck a little further.“So if her name is Gabby,” she asked carefully, “what’s yours, young master?”Perhaps it was because she had agreed to cook for him, or perhaps the title “young master” still pleased him more than he wanted to admit, but the boy no longer looked nearly as guarded as before. In fact, he straightened almost immediately after hearing it, a spark of pride flickering across his face.He placed one hand neatly over his waist and lifted his chin with exaggerated grace, imitating the formal manners of an adult

Chapter: 4-2: Becoming The Food-II"Achoo!" A loud sneeze slipped from Jane. She frowned, placing a hand on her nose and rubbed it with a frown. For some reason the place, though an open ground had a rather spicy scent lingering around the place, so much so that she felt her nose itching this entire time, burning if she took a breath too deeply. But Jane kept the itchiness to herself. The last thing she want was to wake up whatever wild beast that was inside this cage. What if she woke them up just because of how loud she was? No, no, that would be a bad idea. And also, although she had walked for about five minutes mindlessly, she hadn't seen anything at all, nothing in fact, when she should be seeing the "pet" that Victor kept in this place. Thinking about Victor again, Jane felt a sense of annoyance. She found a rock and mindlessly kick it with the tip of her shoes, muttering to herself, "The saying of looking like an angel yet holding a devil's soul is truly him in flesh."Jane continued to pucker up her lips,

Chapter: 4-1: Becoming The Food-IJane stared at the cage, the words dying somewhere between her throat and her lips.The cavern swallowed sound too easily, its vast hollow stretching above them like the ribcage of something ancient and long dead. And there, set deep within its shadows, stood the cage.It was far too large.No harmless creature needed iron bars that thick, nor locks that heavy. The metal itself looked worn, not from age alone, but from strain, as though something inside had tested its limits more than once... and failed.A cold thread of realization slipped down Jane's spine.Whatever lived in there was not something meant to be cared for.It was something meant to be contained.She swallowed, her throat suddenly dry, as a sheen of cold sweat gathered at the nape of her neck. Slowly, almost instinctively, her head turned toward Victor. Her expression softened into something pleading, even though she knew those unseeing eyes would never truly catch it."I... I don't do well with animals," she said, her

Chapter: 3-10: Punishing The Hamster-IIIClearly, there was no such "Jane's service" that could have impressed Victor. Without being humble and only subjective, the only service that Jane had done for him was nothing but hold his hand and helped him walk for a few steps. She hadn't worked long for him, the only thing she had truly done was trying to run away from him! Clearly he had praised her excessively precisely because he wanted to cause trouble for her... This man.... Jane gulped when she felt Annie's gaze sweeping over her and how her jaw had clenched when she stopped at her face. "I-" Jane started to speak and quickly thought of something before bowing down, "I wouldn't dare to say that I could begin to compare to a senior maid," she bowed politely, "The young master must have misunderstood my intent on working my best as claiming that I would be better than any other senior maids here."Annie's eyebrows raised at once but Jane didn't stop, "I always admire the senior maids, if at any time, you have any menial ta

Chapter: The PuppetAs she settled her hand on Gorgolta’s hands, the man instructed, “Imagine the face of the person. You’re doing great.” Belle’s closed eyes moved slowly as she avoided the bad memory and sight of her bloody sister, only focusing on the man’s face that stood behind Damian. She tried to make it clear but alas, his eyes were blackened in her memory. But even though she couldn’t see the man’s eyes, she was certain she had seen every part of the man’s face, starting from his hair down to his neck. Leon looked at the drawing that Gorgolta had sketched instantly. The charcoal shades left dusts over the parchment but the drawing that started from a line slowly formed a face of a person. Meanwhile, back at her home in that afternoon, Damian who woke up felt a sudden itch from his wound that was given by the strange old woman he had seen two days ago. He felt his throat parched and pushed himself from his coach only to feel dizziness hitting his head and his bod losing balance to the poi

Chapter: Elderly Demon Belle followed right behind Leon, finding the two elderly men had quickly jump on their feet and looked behind as if trying to find another way to escape. Leon sighed, bringing the boy in front of him that stopped the two men at once.“Wait! Wait! Don’t harm him!” Shouted the first man whose hair had turned all gray. While the man beside him who looked less older also stopped and raised his hand to show he won’t escape again.“We can talk about this. Release that child,” said the second man.“When did I say I would harm this little one?” Leon scoffed. “Which one of you is Gorgolta?”A faint sigh could be heard from the second man’s mouth as he stepped forward, raising his hand, “That would be me. If you’re business if with me—”“He won’t harm this boy,” Belle cut in. Gathering the two’s attention that looked surprised seeing her face, more startled when he saw her eyes were blue instead of red. She noticed this and offered them a smile to break the tension in the room. “We only wish

As she opened her eyes again the next second, she found herself in a different space. They were standing in front of a pub where men and women gathered but with most of them ignoring their presence, as though Leon’s presence matter so less to their eyes.“Where are we?” She asked, looking around again at the place they had stood at.“The slum of Hell, where only those who are born from the lowest type of demons come,” he pulled her hand, holding her tight. “In here they would sell anything, even the people they just met in exchange for their livelihood. Don’t stray away from me.”Belle noticed the eyes that watched her after a while. It wasn’t that they hadn’t

Chapter: Repay HimHelios frowned, trying to remember Belle’s face but couldn’t as he didn’t put much thought in remembering the person whom he was set to kill. As there would be no use in remembering the person’s face and name when they would die in the next second. “I don’t remember,” brushed Helios aside, thinking that there was no use in remembering the woman's face again. “I thought Leon would become more obedient now, seeing how he had kept quiet for the few decades. But I could see now how he’s slowly rebelling like what he did in the past. He never learned from his mistakes.”Rachel crooked her eyebrows, folding her hand underneath her bust, “So you’re saying that he brought a witch, is that correct? Can it be the soul of the witch whom you asked for him to bring?”Helios scoffed, as if refusing her words, “He should be done with it by now. I asked him and he told me the soul is already in his possession. If that’s true, the witch must’ve been long dead by now. If everything went to the plan th

Chapter: Other LoverBelle stayed beside Leon until morning, carefully watching his wound and making sure he was at the most comfort. She found out that truly there was no medicine from the side effect he suffered due to breaking the contract.By morning, the blackness that appeared on his arm had disappeared which took around eight to ten hours.“It’s better now, you don’t have to look at it that way,” Leon chuckled seeing how her blue eyes carefully studying his arm.“Is this really the only side effect?” Belle asked him only to see him smile.“My brother could have killed me but I guess he thought it would be a shame since I haven’t finished what he told me to do,” Leon moved his finger, frowning a little that made her worried.Deep down she had the urge to question what Helios had ordered him to do but couldn’t knowing how it would only trigger the same wound to appear again on him.

He quickly shook his head, holding both her hand gently as a way to reassure her.“No. I do not have a lover,” he responded firmly. “In the past there was indeed someone who I fall in love for. But it was only an attraction.”“But the masked man told me,” she whispered. “It’s a doll,” Leon answered to her. “They don’t know feelings or emotions but perhaps to their mind they associate friendship as lover.”Belle trusted him and nodded but she wondered how the doll didn’t have feelings or emotions as she saw it by her eyes how the doll would risk itself to protect her.“And who is that person?” She carefully questioned, “The one who you fell for.”Feeling Leon’s red eyes studying her, she quickly waved her hand, “It’s not what you’re thinking.
