22. Helping My King
Planning and execution are very different things. Now that I have King Armand in our vicinity I need to help him.
The awkwardness between us was obvious, though the need to push through was greater. I need to do this, I need to get it over it, help him, and move on.

"I thought you were gone? we looked everywhere for you, Magnus, are you really back?" The handsome king tried to shake the answer out of me. I'd laugh if I didn't think he needed to be healed to get better. Then the king was looking at me like he was really hurting.
"Come on, you're in pain,"
"No, no...no...I need to get back to Basilea, one of ours in a traitor, I need her t

Being kept in a dungeon was not something I'd want to experience ever again. Being away from Armand felt worse than staying in the filthy place and being treated as their slave. The only thing that made me survive the ordeal was imagining that Armand would come and save me.I was a demon, I was a harem slave. But still, I hoped. I managed to heal myself after every encounter. I didn't stay long as their captive, I have my king to thank for that.I had my doubts, but when he came, I owe him my life. I loved him, and now I feel like I was falling deeper in love with him,there was no depth when it comes to my love for King Armand.*****"I'm better,"I was not. "I
The King and The Succubus 24. Traitor Hunt
Years I've been king never once did I ever consider one of my closest generals to betray me. But the last ambush to the crawler's territory proved otherwise.I was out of my mind, ready to ransack the palace walls to find the reason. Among the three none, I believed would ever do such a thing.Or so I thought.*****I left Basilea with her pet dragon, Brontes, along with Justus by her side. The elf was not there when the plan was formed therefore he could not be the leak. Basilea was safe for now while I hunt for the traitor among us."I was with Titus, Osirus, and Bharat. You know I trust them with my life, I still couldn't believe that one of them was capable of doing such a thing."
The King and The Succubus 25. Execution Day
To be a king was never going to be an easy task, though I had never facedsuch ahard decision. Not until today.To execute your general, to give the sentence, death without mercy. The thought of having the traditional style of execution done to one of my eldest friends was making me restless. But Ineededto do what had to be done.*****The punishment was to be held today. The sooner the better, I didn't want more guilt swaying my conscience. Titus committed his betrayal, he was to be sentenced. It was as simple as that, though I wish the execution would be too.It was high time, the sky was at its reddest, clear as hell. The weather was hot
The King and The Succubus 26. Hiding Truth
I cannot fail, not after decades of concealing my true self.Basilea will meet her demise, her demon line must perish with the incubus. She was the last for the throne.I have made my vow.*****When she was sent to Armand's kingdom I almost lost it. Decades we've spent watching her, adapting to the situation waiting for our king to give the order only to let her go was a giant step back for me and Cato.Between the elven kingdoms that spread throughout realms, our king had a long history with her royal family. Her sire had made sure we were hunted and made to become their slaves for hundreds of years. Basilea was still young, she was
The King and The Succubus 27. After the loss
Never in my darkest days did I imagine Titus, the great general, would smear his name with betrayal. Magnus too had left. I was feeling uneasy on the inside, but I put up my facade keeping all feelings locked away in the darkest corner of my mind.I took comfort with the elf, revealing my inner beast, and letting my body feed on the roughness of our encounters. I should get back to my love, but at this stage, all seemed superficial. All but the need to find the beings behind her abduction.*****I thought, knowing why Titus did it, would make me feel better. But not if the why was because of me, I hated myself for causing it and Basilea knew it. Though she had been supporting me by being there for me. While I slipped out of bed once she was satisfied, o
The King and The Succubus 28. The Vengeance
His frustration was eating him out. I could feel it in his touches. It won't be long, my handsome king...Soon I will rid you of the demon-bitch, then... you can focus on me.*****It was well into the night when I managed to slip out of the palatial walls and find my way to the crawler's hideout. They abandoned their cave after it was destroyed, and since there were too many bodies to clean after. Yeah, the crawlers have always been lazy ass demons, yet we kept them working for us because they were loyal.But now, now that they're hungry for revenge it was our time to attack. I want Basilea dead, soonest, and I've finally got the approval to do so from our elven king. The succubus demon had been a
The King and The Succubus 29. Blindsided
Jealousy is a feeling that I've never felt before. It reeks and strangely pained me. I was not liking what it does to my energy level.I knew Armand visited Justus. I still didn't understand why he didn't want to have a threesome with him and me. I thought he loved me.*****The knowledge of King Armand having nightly visits to Justus's chamber was shocking at first. But when I finally asked he only told me that he loves me, not Justus.As if I understood his explanation, I didn't ask further. Though the wretched feeling stayed deep inside me, and it took more of my energy that it left me mostly a bit more tired by the end of the day.I usuall
The King and The Succubus 30. To Hell and Back
I still couldn't believe that I lost Titus through betrayal. He was my mentor, the male figure that I looked up to when I was training under him.He made me the male that I am today. I was stronger because of him, I was an excellent fighter, a male with principles. That was why losing him to betrayal made me grieve just a little bit longer.*****"Magnus?"I turned as Gerold called my name. Smiling, I wrapped an arm around his shoulder and kissed his cheek. It was a couple of weeks after we got back from Armand's, and we'd been staying at Gerold's cottage. The were-witch kept on saying that he was going to help me out of my grief."You're righ
