Brown radiant long hair framed a strong, defined face and pink soft lips were curved into a smirk. “mmmh… what do we have here?" His voice as smooth as his fawn skin held a mocking lilt.When Rita didn't reply or move he arched one dark brow. "Do you find it comfortable sitting on the floor?" He asked."Huh? Oh... no..." Rita’s face burned with embarrassment as she got up and adjusted her dress.Why was she acting like this? Irritated with herself she looked at the man in front of her. holy molly, he was enticing, a feast to the eyes. She guessed that he might be from east because of his pale skin and exotic looks."You seemed to be in hurry?" He spoke.Yes, right, she forgot. She was running from a snake. A snake? Rita looked behind her. Luckily the snake hadn't followed her. it would be so embarrassing for a whole powerful Luna to run from a snake but what could she do she was still a lady."There was...a... a snake...in there," Rita said pointing.The man chuckled. "It's harmless."
"Rita? Where are you going?" Reilla stood at the door while Rita packed her weapons."I am going to find Nicklaus." Rita waited for Reilla to ask why but she didn't."How do I leave? I mean we came through that magic gate." Rita asked."You leave through it as well. Do you want me to open it for you?""Yes, please." Rita followed Reilla outside and she opened the gate for her."Take this." Reilla said handing her a red string bracelet. “It will help you when you are in danger." Rita looked at the bracelet. How would a bracelet help her she wondered but still put it on. "Thank you. I shall go then.""Yes.""Wait!" Tiana came running toward them. "Could you give this to Nicklaus?" She asked holding out a letter.Rita took the letter. "Yes. Goodbye." Then entered the gate with her horse."Be careful." She heard Tiana call before a force swept her away and she landed flat on her stomach."Ouch! Not again!” Standing up she dusted herself off. Then called her house, he seemed fine, just con
Tiana kept looking down at her hands while sitting in the garden with Uzaih. Reilla had left saying she would bring them some nourishing tea. Tiana just hoped Reilla would come back soon because she had never been so nervous in her life before.But since Reilla just left Tiana knew it would take some time before she came back and she couldn't just let this awkward silence continue. Besides she was the one who told Reilla she wanted to meet him so she should say something."Reilla has told me a lot about you,” Tiana finally found her voice."I hope it's good things." He said his voice as cool as the air around him."Yes, she lights up when she talks about you.""She is very fond of you as well." Tiana just smiled not knowing what to say anymore. Reilla please come back fast.“Am back dears,” Reilla came back with a tray of teacups and put it on the table. Then she went and sat next to Uzaih and he immediately put his arm around her shoulders.For some odd reason, Tiana suddenly missed
Tiana woke up the next morning with an extreme headache. she had been thinking the whole night about what Reilla had told her. she couldn't find a reason for Reilla to lie to her, so she must have been speaking the truth. But then again, how could she believe that she had met the legendry creature? A creature only mentioned in books. Tiana shook her head. “Think straight Tiana.” Reilla wanted Tiana to help her and figure things out herself. “she must have had a reason to tell me that Uzaih is the demon hybrid, if he truly was. Maybe she was giving me hints.” Tiana tried to analyze things but were could she start? First she has to figure out why Reilla wanted to help her at all. “Either she was related to me or to Nicklaus, or maybe Uzaih was related to Nicklaus. Then if Uzaih is the demon hybrid and Nicklaus is said to be the son of the creature with same features as Uzaih....no, no. You are being crazy Tiana”. Tiana talked to herself like a crazy person she could not understand
Nicklaus didn't sleep well, his demon was restless, hungry and angry."Bring me Dalton!" He told Sandra who was serving him breakfast. She nodded and left. Shortly after Dalton came in. "Your Highness.""Did you find the seal?""No."Nicklaus tried to keep his calm but his nails were already elongating and his body itched for blood. "Bring them to me.!"Nicklaus and Egon came back with Ezekiel’s soldiers. They got pushed down on their knees in front of him. Nicklaus stared down at them with arms crossed behind his back."So... you don't know where the seal is?" He asked. They shook their heads."Then I have no use of you." Nicklaus said and slit their throats with his claws. Their bodies fell to the ground with a thud they didn’t even have time to react or defend themselves. Nicklaus grabbed the table clothes to wipe his hands off while the soldiers slowly bled to death."That was unnecessary You Highness. You stained the carpet." Dalton said with a frown. Nicklaus was amused, Dalton
Tiana was relieved to find that she was back home. Finally, she could meet her husband Nicklaus. She walked through the large halls as fast as she could and slowed down when she neared their quarters. There soldiers were gathered everywhere. Some of them seemed stressed, others terrified. The atmosphere felt tense and everyone seemed busy. Tiana got a bad feeling. What was going on?From a distance, Tiana could see two soldiers coming out of their chamber dragging on a body. A dead body. Right after them came two other soldiers and they were dragging on another dead body as well. her stomach churned as she watched a pool of blood trailing behind them."My Lady?" Tiana almost had a heart attack. Turning her head, she found a surprised Dalton looking at her like he has seen a ghost. "How did you get here?""Dalton. Thank God." Tiana breathed relieved. "Nicklaus? Where is Nicklaus?"Dalton frowned. "I don't think it's a good Idea for you to meet His Highness right now.""Why so? What's h
Nicklaus had waited for this moment, the moment when he reunites with Tiana and takes her to bed. He had imagined making slow, sweet love to her but right now he was elated with lust. All he wanted was to dive into her, melt into the warmth and softness of her body and drown in the sound of her moans."Tiana, I won't be gentle this time."“Was he gentle the first time too?” Tiana thought as she looked at her husband. Like hell she wanted him to be gentle.Hell, he didn't want to. He was already listing all the things he wanted to do to her inside his head. He wanted to take her in every possible way, consume her, devour her. He wanted to tease her and make her beg for release. His body shook at his wild imaginations.Looking down, Nicklaus searched Tiana face trying to see if his words had made her scared but as he gazed into her eyes all he saw was a blazing desire, a raging hunger that matched his own. Leaning down he crashed his lips against hers, his tongue exploring her mouth whi
Nicklaus stared up at the ceiling. Just what the hell happened last night? He was still confused. He had bitten Tiana, bitten her, and his teeth. He felt his teeth with his fingers, they were back to normal. Was it a dream maybe?Nicklaus turned to Tiana. She was sleeping peacefully. His gaze traveled to her neck, he did indeed bite her. He could see the wound which strangely already healed and was now only a faint mark. What he found more strange was that he had wanted to bite her, it had felt so right to do it, as if it was normal to bite her during the deed. He knew was never normal.Nicklaus traced a finger over the scar, the mark felt hot under his finger. Tiana stirred in her sleep and opened her eyes slowly. She rubbed her eyes with the back of her hands and blinked a few times before she could look at him. He found her very adorable when she did that."Good morning." she smiled."Good morning wife, did you sleep well?""I slept very well and you?""I slept way better." He said
