No one dared to move, no one even dared to exhale their breaths that they held after hearing the loud blast coming from Damian’s side.  The people turned their eyes, shivering at the sight of the red glint on his eyes.  “Damian,” a low voice spoke that instantly pulled back the rest of the witches from their daze, even Yulene who was too stunned to speak.  They moved away from their chair, looking at the person who had spoken and offered her their most polite greeting. Damian slowly closed his eyes. Being the only person who was not bowing he stood out than the rest. He clutched his fists together, clenching his knuckles tightly until his veins raised. After his mind had cooled down, he turned back his eyes to the woman, giving her the same

Small head, round eyes, and slithering body of a black skin rested on her table. The reptile spoke with human language despite it being an animal. The black scaled reminded Belle of the ability that Leon possessed to change his form into animals, which also meant this familiar voice and the red eyes belong to a demon.  It was Leon’s older brother, Vetis. “Please, I hope I didn’t surprised you,” Vetis spoke. “I thought if I come in my normal form, people will find faults at you. Therefore why I had chosen this form.” “You didn’t surprised me,” Belle tried to be considerate. She almost threw her tea on him, that’s it. “You are… sir Vetis?”  “Correct. You have a magnificent hearing Lady Belle. I looked ar

Holding her head, Belle felt confused. When Leon had asked her the question, the answer spilled from her lips without her own realization but she soon realized the oddness. Although it appears as if somewhere in the back of her mind she knew something very eventful happened in her childhood, she couldn’t remember well what it was. Going back to her childhood memories slowly felt as though she had drowned in a sea. Walls of water covering her head, making her unable to see back in her pasts. “Something is strange,” Belle whispered. Leon saw her eyes moving back and forward. She wasn’t lying. He could tell that as she looked confused, like a child pushed to the abyss by someone she trusted the most.  “Slow down,” he said to her, his eyebrows furrowed when he saw Belle starting to wince. “What happened?”

 Belle stared at the window, waving her hand to Yulene who excitedly hopped to the carriage after bidding a warm goodbye consisting of tight hugs.  Her dearest friend looked clueless of how she had dazed on their conversation, rethinking of what had occurred today.  She questioned herself, questioning why her memory have gone. If her family knew of this, why do they hide it?  No, there would only be one answer, told Belle to herself. Her family had always there to protect her. The only reason they had not tell her of the missing memories must be related to it. But since Leon had asked her about it, she wondered if her past was related to Rachel. Else, he wouldn’t ask about her missing memories, would he? Three crispy kn

She couldn’t see it clearly but the short black hair and the thin figure told Belle instantly who it was. They had been together since the longest Belle could remember. But now, Orpha had submerged her hands inside a man’s stomach, pulling out the bright organs and ate it as though it was her most delicious food. Belle felt her stomach churning. The sight caused her head to panic and her sight to flickered between black and white. She realized her knees had fallen weak when she collapsed to Leon’s chest.Slowly staring at his face, she found his smile that caused her to shiver. His gentle action for the past few days had made her almost forget that he was a demon.Belle gulped, feeling her blood running cold as tears pushed itself from the rim of her eyes, “Orpha… no way. She is a human. She has always been a human.” Leon watched how weakly she appeared and the thought of controlling her somewhere grew in his mind which was dangerous. He pulled her chin slightly as she was unable t
