All Chapters of Demon King's Contract: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

Passing the gate drained even more of Shedim’s powers. He knew he needed a nap as soon as possible. Even if it was for just a little bit, he wanted to close his eyes and rest without moving even a single inch. He knew this was not the time for that, after what he had just discovered, his main priority was to return to their home. He grit his teeth, wondering how long he would be able to call it ‘their home’. The way the circumstances are, it would not be easy to protect what was dear to him.Though he found it hard to move, he managed to bring out his wings and flap his way to the house. Teleportation required much more energy of his so this was a better option. Opening the door, he stumbled in. At this particular moment, what happened between him and Agares seemed to pass his mind. It was not trivial by any means but he had bigger fish to fry so staying angry at him any longer would only hinder his goal instead of helping him get close to it.Hearing the door open, Enkeli peeked a lo

Back then there was a bit of an economical crisis. Shedim’s family sold trinkets for a living, just enough to feed their family of 10. Excluding himself and his parents, he had his grandma and 6 siblings. At a certain point, the trinkets had failed to sell during the period of economical depression and the ‘savings’ weren’t nearly enough to keep their family afloat. The first one to go was his grandma, since she had decided she had lived long enough and wanted her children and grandchildren to continue living and make the next generation better.The next was his father, who made sure his mom and siblings had enough food in their bellies. Then, of course, his mom would die too, followed by older siblings and at last, the resilient younger siblings remained. Shedim did his best to take care of her younger sister.He stole and threatened as much as he could. When he was caught and placed in jail, he asked only one favour of the police officer who looked kind enough to take pity on him. A

When I woke up I was happy because of yesterday’s events. It felt like a real family. At least I got to know what that was like before hearing what I was about to hear. We were having breakfast at the table, all four of us. The swelling on Agares’s face had completely died down and in fact, he did not even have the black eye anymore. He looked as good as new. The healing powers of supernatural beings really was incredible, it meant I wouldn’t have to worry about them at least.The whole time, Shedim remained completely silent. No snarky remark or suggestive comment, not even one of those annoying smirks of his. Agares looked back and forth between us and raised his eyebrow, wondering if something was wrong.I shrugged my shoulders. I was just as confused as he was. Lily, on the other hand, was oblivious. Since it was Sunday, all she wanted to do was her homework from school then sleep some more. After eating her breakfast she yawned and headed to her room.He seemed to be done with hi

“I’ll go deal with Asmodeus and you should stay here and make sure nothing happens to them. No matter what happens ,you can’t let Enkeli use her powers.” Shedim warned.Something was wrong with Agares. He was standing there blankly as if nothing around him made sense.“Stop me.” He grunted as he leaped forward towards Lev and attacked him. In an instant, Shedim pulled him away but Agares’s attack was so aggressive that he created a hole in Lev’s abdomen that was gaping and gushing with blood. He did this just with his hand?I reflexively scream and kneel down to him.“WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?” I scream at Agares who still seemed to be dazed.“Fuck. He’s received a direct order from the master of the ring to kill any humans in front of him. I can’t hear the command but that must be it.”Shedim takes off his shirt and hands it to me, which I use to press against Lev’s wounds. He coughed painfully and gurgled up some blood that started flowing down the sides of his mouth right onto t

“The answer is no.” He laughed. “I don’t just like you, what I feel is much more than that. I don’t know what love is but if I had a choice, I’d live all my life with you and then some more. I would be willing to stay with you for as long as the earth existed. If you think that’s love, then so be it. I think the three of us made a pretty great family, don’t you? I really liked it when John, that waiter, thought you were my wife and munchkin was my kid.” He smiled was fulfilling, like he had no regrets in life.“Why are you saying this?” I pout, my eyes brimming with tears. “I.. I feel the same. You saved me.” My voice was too unstable to continue saying all the things I wanted to say to him.“I know how you feel even if you don’t say it.”I shake my head aggressively. I did not like the tone of his voice and I did not like where this conversation was going. He suddenly wants to confess his feelings? He wouldn’t do that at an inappropriate time like this, not unless he thought he woul
