Devon sat at the edge of Daemon's bed and looked at the weird ghostly paintings on the wall. Her husband is showering in the bathroom while she's clutching hard at her nightie praying that it will be over soon. After the wedding, Daemon brought her to his house just across the Alley 56 to consummate their marriage.
"I need a son, Devon. The earlier you give me one, the earlier you will be released from our deal."His words rang into her head like a recorder."So this is the price I have to pay for not marrying Joffrey. I'll take it as it is," she muttered when the door to the shower opened and Daemon stepped out naked all the way down while wiping a towel on his head.He grinned at Devon who quickly averted her eyes."Let me guess, you're a virgin Devon? Never had a dick in your life?"Her eyes widened, scandalized by the vulgar term he used. "Must you really say that? It's obvious that I don't have one. I would have asked them to save me if I had one."Daemon laughed and sat beside her and touched her face. She forced herself not to get startled when her finger caressed her lips. She can smell his soap, the aftershave he used and the shampoo on his head."No one would be able to take you away from that wedding other than me, Devon. All the people in the district are afraid of your father. They're too coward to face the wrath of Gestoni Farrows."She turned to him but the moment she'd done that, he braced her face and kissed her savagely while his hands traveled inside her clothing and cupped her breast.Shocked with his sudden movement, she wasn't able to say anything. She just sat there like a log while Daemon hungrily feasted on her. When he parted her leg and pushed his finger inside her, a tear fell from her eyes and a squeak came from her.Daemon stopped kissing her and just stared at her face. She closed her eyes and bit her lips when his hot breathe fanned her face. She was waiting for him to kiss her again or for him to move his finger that is still inside her but none of that happened. She felt him withdrew his finger and pushed her to the bed.She finally opened her eyes and saw him butt naked bending down to get a beer in can in the fridge."I-I'm sorry," she softly whispered. "It's just that I'm still afraid. Maybe I'm still in shock. I'm sorry. We can do it again. Promise I won't cry."He's probably not as worked out as he is because of her crying and feeling like he's disgusting when he is not even that. Daemon is a very attractive guy with a very commanding aura in him. He smelled danger and passion in his well-toned body and chiseled jaw."When I kiss you, don't fight it. Kiss me back even if you don't know. Let your body enjoy the pleasure. And when I fuck you, you fuck me too. Sex is not satisfying when I am the only one fucking. I need a son but it doesn't mean you can't enjoy it as well."He sat back beside her and offered his drink to her."Open up."She slowly unclenched her mouth. Daemon poured the liquor into it. She choked as he slowly emptied the whole can into her mouth. It trickled down to her lips but it didn't even reach her neck as Daemon began sucking it out of her skin.She gasped when he licked the liquid all the way to the hole in her ear."Relax," he whispered and lowered the strap of her nightie. "Just enjoy it. Many would kill for this opportunity Devon. Be thankful it's you who's experiencing it."And so she tried hard to obey him. She closed her eyes again and enjoyed the moment. She didn't think about anything else but the itch that is forming in the pit of her stomach that's badly needed to be scratched.When Daemon latched at her exposed breast, she whimpered and when he played with her nipples she clawed hard at his back and began moaning. The heat started pooling and aching at the center of her legs."Feeling better? Hmm?" he asked when he began rubbing her mound.She nodded, her mouth partially open, her eyes tightly shut."Yeah...""Good girl."Daemon tore her nightie apart and straddled her legs to his shoulders to begin eating her but a knock on the door interrupted them. He sighed, eyes dark with desire, he lift his head to her but still stood up to retrieve his robe. Devon reached for the sheets to cover her body while panting for breath. She can barely heard what they're talking about but judging from Dameon's furrowed brows, she realized it might be quite nervous."Prepare the cars and the men. I'll go find her."He closed the door, ran to the closet to get dressed and without even looking at her direction, went out of the room without saying anything.The urgency of his actions as well as the fear in his eyes remind her of the time when her father learned that a group abducted her mother. Was it also the same to him? She can only wonder.A girl brought her food that night because she did not go outside no matter how many times they forced her to eat."Where did Daemon go?" she asked after the young girl put down the food on the bedside table."Ms. Maddy Johnson is in the hospital, Ms. Devon. Sir Daemon went there to get her."Maddy? The famous Maddy Johnson? Dameon's first and only love?"What happened to her?""She was stabbed by Senator Jefferson.""Oh. I'm sorry to hear that."She didn't know why she still waited for Daemon that night when she knows that there is no way he will leave Maddy in the hospital and resume what they've been doing earlier. It's Maddy we're talking about. Dameon's only woman he loves and the only woman he can't have.But she still waited and waited until the morning comes but as expected, Dameon didn't come back."Your husband isn't coming home yet, Mrs. Druft. He's crazy about Maddy Johnson. Don't expect him to choose you over that woman."She flinched hard from staring at the parking area of the house when a hard bitter voice suddenly spoke from her back. She slowly turned around to see a man who has not been shaven for probably months now with a gun carelessly planted on the side of his dirty black jeans."Who are you?" She stepped back warily and looked at the door to the living room hoping for someone to be in sight.The man just laughed noticing her fear. "Henry Sean. Your knight's loyal man," he introduced himself. "Go inside and sleep. Dameon won't be back until dawn." He nodded at her and then walked past her towards the adjacent room in the main house."W-Wait Henry. Is she okay? I mean, is Maddy okay? I heard she's been stabbed. I just wanna know if she's alright now."He stopped on his tracks but did not look at her. "If I can have it my way, I wish she'd died but I can't have my
She didn't move when Daemon started kneading her breast and kissing the other. She closed her eyes and concentrated on the pleasure he's giving her. Moan, feel his hot breathe on you, she kept telling herself.His hand traveled down to her navel making circles on it before sliding his finger inside her underwear and cupping her mound.She can't help but let out a whimper."You loving it? Mhhh?" Daemon asked when her nails dig deeper into his arms when he sank his finger inside her.Pull and push. Pull and push until she felt her world spinning in pleasure. "Do you like it, Devon. Do you like what I'm doing to your body?"She nodded, her mouth open and her eyes tightly shut."I want you to open your eyes and answer me," he commanded.Drunk in lust, she opened her eyes and said yes.His hand inside her stopped moving to her disappointment. She rotated her hips against his finger but Dameon held her legs together."The next time I ask you that, you have to tell it to me in a more conv
Daemon’s gallery is teeming with clients who are keen on looking at the precious items on the glass cages that night. An ambassador from Asia is present and is busy discussing with Daemon over a glass of rum on the other side. Devon is on the far side just observing the place. Her husband talked her over in the dinner saying that she needs to be seen by his side in the events that he is invited. He will slowly reveal their marriage which means her family will know really soon about her being married to an enemy. “I don’t think you should be spying on your own husband, Devon.”She almost jumped to her feet when a voice suddenly spoke from her back. “You scared me,” she said when she saw Henry hovering around her. “Daemon does not like being watched. If he caught you snooping around him, he might suspect something.”She returned her eyes on the man who is now talking to his phone, his furrowed brows and annoyed lips made him more fearsome and handsome in her eyes. “Suspect me? For
“Did you enjoy the night?”Devon did not look at Daemon who’s driving and nodded. “I did,” she replied timidly. “Really? But you practically ignored me the whole night.”She smiled half-heartedly. “Oh you noticed that? I thought you only had your full attention to Maddy.”She is still fuming inside whenever she remembers that lipstick on his neck that magically disappeared that now she wondered if he deliberately erased it. Daemon chuckled. “I never knew you’re a jealous type of woman, Dev. That’s so sweet.”Sweet?! The hell! He found her feelings being played at to be sweet? She thought. But should she still ask why? This is Daemon Druft for heaven’s sake!She didn’t say anything until they arrive at his house. No matter how he tries to open up a new conversation, she stayed uninterested and pretended to be mute. Even when they’re already in bed, she laid to his side and closed her eyes. She does not want to see his face. if only she could sleep on the floor or outside the room, s
“Devon, someone is calling you.”Henry handed her a phone. She had been in the lawn for almost an hour now waiting for Daemon to pick her up. She’s wearing the pink dress he bought for her and the set of diamond earring hung on her ears. He told her it’s the first time he will introduce her to his world so she better looked put together.“A call? Someone was able to reach me?” She stood up anxiously from sitting on the bench and hesitated if she will accept the phone or not. Henry looked relaxed so she assumed it’s a harmless call. “Pick it up. It’s your mom.”Her eyes widened and hurriedly snatched the phone away from his hand and answered it immediately. “Hello? Mom?” Devon fought off the tears from falling. Her make-up must not be ruined or else Daemon will put her up on that room again for hours staring at the vanity mirror while they glam her up like a doll. It’s exhausting. But she missed her mom. It’s her mom. It’s been weeks since the last time she had seen and spoken wi
Her eyes widened upon hearing that voice. It can’t be… It can’t be! There’s no way this is happening! This is not happening!“What are you doing here? How did you know that I am here?” she asked while stepping back. Her knees are shaking and all the nerves in her body are trembling while looking at Joffrey who emerged from the dark and is now stalking her.“Of course, I am here to get you, Devon. I am here to get you, my wife.” He smiled creepily. “You don’t know how much I went through just to find you, the money I spent, the men I killed, and the resources I wasted just to find you so come with me now while I am still being nice.”“No!” She jerked when a pair of strong hands from her back put a cuff on her hands. “You can’t do this. You can’t take me away from here, Joffrey! I can’t marry you! I am already somebody’s wife! I am Daemon’s wife!”“Starting from today, you are no longer his wife, Devon.” Joffrey gripped her face and licked her cheeks. “You are mine from the very start
Daemon’s eyes shone like demons against Henry’s bloodied face. It has been exactly an hour since they all search for her missing wife but she is nowhere to be found. All the CCTV cameras are magically not working during the interval and there is no eye witness either so he went back to his home just in case but there’s no shadow of Devon. “I told you to keep your eyes to my wife, Henry! Now where is she?! Where is she?!”He threw him to the ground and wiped the sweat on his face. His wife is missing on the first night that he will reveal her to the world. He failed her. He wasn’t able to protect her just like she asked him to.“Relax, big boy. It’s so unlike of you to react this way. It’s just a woman, Daemon. You can still find plenty of them. I’m available tonight, Daemon. I will love you and I will make you forget her.”He shot Maddy a look that instantly made her shut her mouth. “That is my wife you’re talking about. Watch your mouth. And I don’t need you to be here, Maddy. Get o
The day she dreads to come has come whether she likes it or not. She obviously has not slept even for just a second in the hopes that Daemon will come for her and save her but he didn't come for her. By the time, the sun rose, Devon has already made up her mind. She will lose her life by herself or she will lose it to her own family. “The ceremony will just happen here in our mansion, Devon.” Melena looked fondly at her daughter at the vanity mirror where a make-up artist is preparing her. She touched Devon’s hair. “My baby is really getting married.”“I am already married.” Tears welled up in Devon’s eyes again. “I married Daemon. And you didn’t get to witness how secured I felt when I wore his ring. You weren’t there when I felt so relieved to be able to do it my own way. To finally have a choice. Daemon might be cruel but he does not force someone. He’s not even my family, he is a stranger but he knows what I wanted more than my own mother.”Melena is hurt but she just dismissed i
