/Lukas POV/
I stared at the portal, anxiety crawling inside me. Finally, it was the day of Yama's visit. The past few days have been a blur. Talia kept to herself occasionally joining us for dinner as she indulged herself in the decorations with Leo. I should have known those two would hit it off. Not that I was jealous, okay maybe a little bit, fine I was extremely jealous to the point I decided to send Leo back to earth. He was better there moping for his love.
As both of them were busy with all the planning I had to pay extra attention to the duties of Hell. Ever since I saw those fairies and the pool my mind was occupied with various things. Talia was in danger but I had no idea how to tell her that without making her worry. She was the first of being to ever birth a half-human demon, Nephilim. These kinds of kids never see the light of day due to various reasons

Leo was probably the only person who understood my humour. He was also proud member of Tom Hanks fan club and loved to watch Spanish dramas even though he did not understand anything. As we started to spend more time together I understood about his love story. It was tragic because it seemed like he really loved her. I tried to help him understand why she was finding it difficult to reciprocate his love but he was tired to talk about it.Lukas was busy managing the affairs of the Hell so Leo kept me company. He had the responsibility of handling everything from room to the decorations for the guest, Yama. Apparently he was also a demon of Hindu mythology and King of Hell. At first I was confused so Leo made me read their mythology. It was long but worth it."Do you think he will appreciate lavender in his room?" I asked, chewing my lower lip in be

Apparently, our story was very popular and hot gossip at the moment. It was surprising that others knew about it. I thought that Lukas was going to keep it a secret to protect our child. Yama was a funny guy. He was ancient according to his own words but still loved to keep up with everything. That's why his new attire. After his wife left him he had to make some drastic changes one of them being replacing his entire wardrobe with funky suits.By the time we sort out the room for his stepbrother, it was time for dinner. At first, we thought Yuri was shy and wouldn't be picky about anything but boy we were in for a surprise. My feet hurt by the time I walked along with him through the entire mention, trying to find a suitable room.A few hours passed by I realised how huge the place was. There were several wings in one mansion with more than five hundred rooms.

/Lukas POV/I couldn't stop staring at her, lying still on the bed. She was going to die if she did not get help soon. My eyes were red, tears forming in them. It was the first time that I was feeling immense sadness inside me. There was no way I could afford to lose her. Not again.Leo patted at my arm, trying to reassure me but nothing would work unless I saw her sit up. The fairies were on the way because they were the only person who knew about Nephilim birth. No one I knew was able to help me.Fang was tied up in chains so that he could calm down. His reaction was still unexpected. The reason I picked him was because of his brutality but I never thought it would make me regret. Fang never acted in that way before, it felt like someone was controlling him. My right arm was broken because of the way he pounced on me. That was not my majo

I squinted my eyes at the harsh lighting. Blinking my eyes open I looked around. My vision felt blurry as I tried to narrow my eyes. I clutched my head as if felt heavy when I tried to sit up."You're awake?" Lukas voice rang in my ears. I snapped my attention towards him, eyes widening when I noticed that he was sitting on the floor near the nightstand. How is that possible?It felt weird to see him like that, a blank look on his face and yet so calm. The bags under his eyes along with the five o'clock shadow on his face made me narrow my eyes. His usual coat was wrinkled by the side, the top three buttons open, giving the view of his bare chest. My lips pressed together. Did something happen which kept him up all night? There has to be a reason why he was sitting on the floor like that.I groaned, shaking

After hearing Kira talk about Lukas not leaving my side it caused a weird feeling in the pit of my stomach. Was he really concerned for me or the baby? But it did not matter because he stayed by my side and did not even take credit for it. Earlier when I thought about attending the party it was just to keep this word but after hearing what he did I was excited to see him.It was difficult to decide on one outfit so I just went with my gut and picked A-line V neck, lace white dress with peach stilettos. My hair was curled at the edges and I let Kira do my make up.For the first time in a while, I felt truly pretty."Thanks, Kira. I'll see you downstairs" I patted at her arm.The party was in the living hall but on the other end of the wing.

/Lukas POV/The moment I stepped down I could sense that Li Changying was in the room. I tried not to slam my head to the wall. Who would invite someone like her? The first time I met her I thought that we could be friends but everything changed after that one night.For some weird reason, she was obsessed with me and wanted to get married as soon as possible. I was not a kind of guy who was readily available for commitment and most of them knew about it. So it made me wonder what made her ask me to court her in front of everyone?I thought that people steered clear of her just because she was the daughter of the Demon King but that was not the case. Not only was she ill-tempered but she had no respect for people above over or under her. That's why no one associated with her kind and did not invite her anywhere. But still, she shows up.I nodded my head when I noticed

My vision was hazy but I could still see my best friend getting her groove on the dance floor. I puckered my lips at that. She was such an elegant dancer even without trying but I couldn't even move two steps without falling on my face.Lukas nudged at me, probing to take it down with my drinks. He has been saying that the entire night without even slurring. How was he not affected by the alcohol? Maybe it is just me. I thought to myself. Being lightweight sucks.He pulled the shot glass from my hand making me frown."Why..." I slurred, adjusting my vision to the harsh lighting. He shook his head and held my arm. Goosebumps pricked my skin at his touch. Why did I feel that way whenever he touched me? It was the third time now. The first two times we bumped hands together accidentally.&

I felt shortness of breath. Talking with Li Changying caused the feeling of dread to settle in my stomach. Over the past few weeks, I've grown quite fond of my baby and the thought of losing it made my insides clench. But what if it turns out to be true? What if Lukas kills our child?'No. What the hell are you thinking? He would never do something like that'I let out a sigh. He was a demon after all but it was impossible to believe that he would kill his own next of kin. If he really did want to kill the baby he would have let me die instead of calling the fairies and sitting by my side.After that, I could not join the party. Lukas seemed to be in a kind of mood because he did not object to my decision. I retreated back to my room and let my body rest for a while.
