First Meet

~Flashback

A year before

We were having a fierce war with Noah, Demon of Gluttony. I had destroyed half of his army. But he was still alive and I was dying to slaughter him. The bloodshed continued for many months.

He was badly injured and was on the verge of dying. I smirked in victory and was about to kill him with my golden sword when all of a sudden someone stabbed my chest from the back.

I looked down only to see red liquid oozing out. I immediately turned around and ripped that guard's head off. His body crashed down on the ground. I smirked and, in a flash, jabbed my sword in Noah's chest killing him. He immediately died. I removed my sword from his chest. It was covered in his blood. I snapped my fingers. It blazed with a golden flame and soon all the blood evaporated leaving it in a gleaming silver hue. I fluttered my wings and soon flew off disappearing in the white clouds.

The blood kept dripping down from my chest making it bloody. I kept increasing my pace to hurry off but it was only boosting the pain. It slowly turned unbearable. My energy started draining off. My vision started turning blurry. I couldn't feel my strength anymore and finally, I landed on the ground with a loud thud leaving me unconscious.

Five months later

I opened my eyes slowly. I squinted my eyes a little to adjust to the bright light.

"You're awake"

A soft sweet voice grabbed my attention. I turned my face to the right.

My heart skipped a beat. The world got stopped around me. I squinted my eyes more as a beautiful and graceful lady sat beside me looking at me softly.

"Are you okay?"

I was speechless. I was mesmerized by her awestruck beauty. She had large blue eyes, soft pink lips, milky soft skin, long brown silky locks, a small babyface, and was looking like a fairy in her white silk gown.

She caressed my head softly with her small tender fingers making my heart beat faster than drums.

"How are you feeling? Please say something."

She pleaded with her puppy eyes making me smile at her cuteness. I nodded my head making her smile.

"Who are you?", I asked her.

"I am Diana, Princess of Moonland. And you?", she replied softly.

"Zachary, the Demon Prince." Her eyes widened at my response.

"You are a Demon?" Her voice had a pinch of fear. I nodded.

"And you're an Angel?" She looked at me in surprise.

"How do you know?", she asked while pouting cutely.

Oh My!!! She is so cute. Her soft pink lips look so tempting and sweet. I was in a desperate urge to kiss those rosy petals hungrily but I controlled myself and got up making her delicate petite figure touch my rock-hard chest.

"No, what are you doing?", she whispered. I then spoke in a firm tone.

"Why? I am a Demon. You are about to throw me away. So, I will go-"

"N-No", she quickly replied making me frown. "Don't leave like this. I am not going to throw you away. I was just not aware of your true identity that's why I got a little bit shook. And by the way, I had only healed your deep wounds."

My eyes widened in shock.

Did she help me?

An Angel?

"What? But you're an Angel and I am a Demon", I asked her completely shocked by her answer. She stared at me with a confused face.

"So what? It doesn't matter. You needed help that time. I found you unconscious on the ground. You were lying helplessly on the verdant grass covered in a pool of blood. When I rushed to check your pulse, you were barely breathing. My friend brought you to this cottage. It's her house by the way. Then I healed your scars with my powers", she answered me honestly. I looked at her in amazement.

"You have healing powers?"

She nodded cutely. I kept staring at her as I got bewitched by her courtesy.

Really, how can a person be so kind?

It was all new for me as I was unaware of these feelings. In our world, we demonstrate only a craving for blood, hate, fear, and power. These feelings of love, happiness, generosity, and benevolence were completely foreign to me.

But did she do it for a favor?

She chuckled at my confused face making me surprised.

Her sweet cackles...

"I know you must be thinking I helped you for some favor."

What the-?? She again laughed.

"I didn't help you to seek some sort of benefit from you. I just cared for you because that time you were in desperate need of help. You would have died as your chest was injured severely. But God sent me to save you. I won't ask anything from you in return. You are free to go now as you are completely healed. You had been unconscious for the past five months."

My eyes widened.

"FIVE MONTHS?"

I blared to which she immediately covered her ears with her small hands. I smiled at her childishness. She then glared at me.

"Oof!! Why are you yelling? Yes, you have been here for five months. You didn't have any idea as you were comatose. But don't worry, you are alright now", she smiled at me softly. I smiled back.

"Thank you", I spoke softly. She nodded. Then I got up. She immediately handed me a white shirt. I frowned.

"Wear it. Yours got turned", she spoke nervously and looked down as if she was afraid to tell me that. I smiled and took the shirt from her hands. I unwrapped the cloth wrapped around my body. She immediately turned around. I frowned.

"What happened??" She shook her head vigorously.

"N-No-Nothing.."

"Then why did you turn around?"

"Uhmm, w-wear your sh-shirt f-first", she replied nervously.

I chuckled.

So, she got shy!!! Hmm, interesting. I decided to play with her.

I placed the shirt on the bed and walked toward her. I stood behind her back and whispered in her ears.

"You can turn around now." She sighed and turned around while smiling.

"Okay, Now-AHHH!!!" She screamed and covered her eyes with her baby hands. I started laughing.

"What happened Angel?", I asked her in a mocking tone.

"You moron, why didn't you wear your shirt?", she scolded me cutely while still covering her eyes. I took her hands off her eyes. Her eyes were still closed.

"Oh!! Come on, you liked it, don't you?"

"YOU!! Omo!!!" She shouted and opened her eyes looking at my bare chest. Her eyes widened and she started struggling in my hold while closing her eyes tightly.

"P-Please Zachary!!! Wear something", she whined while biting her lower lip. I chuckled and left her hands. I then took the shirt and wore it.

"YOU!! I said put it on."

She peeked at me with one eye closed. I chortled. "Ah!! Finally...", she sighed in relief.

"Well, I should take my leave now."

She nodded. We both then went outside.

"Wow!!"

I became astounded while looking at the breathtaking view.

"This is Moonland.", she spoke proudly while crossing her arms.

"It's beautiful", I spoke in a sexy tone while staring at her. She nodded while smiling.

"Indeed, it is", she replied.  I smirked as I was complimenting her.

So naive, so innocent. She even didn't​understand I was hitting her. I shook my head and flapped my red wings.

"Woah!!!" She stared at my wings in awe.

"Liked them?", I asked her. She nodded while grinning.

"They are beautiful!!!", she squealed. I kept staring at her but she was busy admiring my grand splendiferous red feathers. I walked towards her. She looked at me confused.

"We'll meet soon.",

I smiled.

"Huh??" She looked at me bewildered. I pecked her cheeks quickly and before she could react, I got disappeared into the thick white clouds.

End of flashback~

"That day I made up my mind to marry her."

I spoke while staring at the glittering stars embroidered in the widespread dark counterpane of the sky. I was smiling softly while remembering my sweetheart. Calix was listening to me patiently.

"But Zachary, she just helped you out of kindness. And as far as I have understood, she won't be able to fit in this dark world", he spoke in his deep voice. I narrowed my eyes at him.

"What do you mean??"

Calix sighed loudly before speaking in his deep voice. "Listen, Zachary, she is an Angel and we're Demons. Even if you love her but does, she loves you? I mean you just got attracted by her beauty and altruism but she didn't get tempted by your charms. Okay, let's assume that somehow, you're able to marry her but the Demons of our kingdom won't let her live. Even if you get them decapitated but still the question remains will she be able to survive in Hell? Zachary, you are dreaming of something which can never turn true. Angels can never live in Hell. It's impossible", he tried to explain to me calmly but my stubborn mind which was in a desperate urge to have my sweetheart beside me had turned blank by now.

"Nothing is impossible. I will marry her only. I know what I am tryna do will create great havoc but I love her. I want her. I need her. I'LL.MARRY.HER",

I growled with a clenched jaw. He shook his head in disappointment.

"Okay, if that's what you want. But don't get angry at her if she messes up something. When we Demons aren't able to survive your wrath then she is just a girl and that too an innocent one."

I chuckled. "Don't worry, I won't."

"I hope so. But how will you do that??", Calix looked at me confused. I smirked evilly and looked at him.

"I need your help." Calix nodded.

I patted his shoulders while getting up. We both then fluttered our wings.

I then gazed towards the glistening Moon glowing brightly in the dark sky.

"I am coming for you, my Angel."
