"THE DEMON LORD SATAN HAS ARRIVED!"
"THE DEMON LORD SATAN HAS ARRIVED!"
"THE DEMON LORD SATAN HAS ARRIVED!"
Someone suddenly shouted when they saw us and quickly ran away. We're here in the big town that we saw from the mountaintop. The whole place is burning, but we're walking towards the fire and didn't get burned.
The Demon Lord was also holding my hands while we're walking in a center of the empty town.
Holy mama! I thought this town is a crowded one? Where are the peoples? I suddenly caught a person taking a peek in a window, but when she saw me watching her, she quickly closed the window.
I see. They are hiding from the Demon Lord. Are they scared of him?
The Demon Lord suddenly paused from walking that I almost bumped my head on its back. Luckily, I stopped myself or it'll be really the end of my second life.
"Starting from now, you'll never hide again in your house when I'm around! Act like normal! You're making my wife antsy!"
I was bewildered. Yeah he's right, I'm feeling awkwardly from the peeks. But how did he even know my expressions? How far did this Demon Lord know me so well?
Like a bunch of ants, without a second, the peoples suddenly came out from their house and continued what they are doing earlier.
Meanwhile, I was left standing in the ground surprised. My whole body got froze after seeing them.. their physiques!
They are wearing makeups. Some of them are wearing white shirts and dresses but some of them has their shirt covered by bloods!
They are not humans anymore! They're not alive! They're dead persons!
Am I in the underworld now? Oh please, if this is just a scary nightmare, somebody please wake me up!
The Demon Lord held my hand again. I didn't know when did we get inside his realm, but I only know he saves me from a shock moment there. I think if he didn't grab me away, I'll ready die again from a shock for the nth time!
"You are back, Demon Lord." ladies in a red dress suddenly approached us in the door. I raised my one brow. There are total of 20 of them. What are they doing here in his realm?
"Escort her to the changing room." he ordered them and walked out.
My mouth gaped. How can he leave me in this dead girls?!
"Gosh. Your dress is filled with blood!" one of them reacted.
"How'd you die? How'd you die?"
"Such a young girl!"
"How did you ended up with the Demon Lord?"
I am left dumbfounded by their questions. Right, that's when I figured it out that I'm already a dead one like them. If it's not because of this red-blooded ring, maybe my physiques will be like theirs.
They all accompanied me to the changing room. The other girls are glaring at me, and not even spoke a single word. They must have envied me for the fact that I'm the one who fits the Demon Lord's ring.
"Do you even know what is it means by being the Demon Lord's wife?" a girl suddenly whispered in my right ear. She's the only one who left with me in a room, fixing my hair.
I was scared by her stares. Compared to me, she's more way looked like a dead person. Maybe because I have the Demon Lord's ring with me that's why I managed to look like an alive person.
"I have died for over 6 decades and I've been by Demon Lord's side. I can't believe he chose you out of thousand girls he dated."
My left brow automatically raised. So what if she's been by his side? She misunderstood our situation. Does this girl loves that scary Demon Lord?
"Excuse me." I called her when she was about to leave the room.
"I think it's a misunderstanding. That Demon Lord wasn't the one who chose me. It was the ring." I raised my left hand. "I was at the last moment of my life when he inserted me this ring. The ring fits my finger, so he chose to brought me here."
The girl shuts up. She stared at me and glared. "Don't just go out raising your hand like that."
I arched my eyebrows. "Why...?"
"Didn't Demon Lord told you that you'll turn into an ash once you remove that?"
Yeah. Right. He told me that. But why?
"Peoples in Ghost realms are now envied you for being his wife, and also for surpassing the spirit we had." she turns her back and grabbed the door knob. But before she could get out, she left me a few words.
"No matter what happens, you must never let anyone remove that ring from your finger."
---
"Are you listening to me? Dammit! You should not think of any person than me, your husband!"
I snapped back to reality and started feeling nervous. This guy's really a troublesome!
"S-s-sorry.." even when I speak a word, I'm still uttering badly.
The Demon Lord turns his gaze to his 20 concubines. "I take back what I said earlier. I'm the one who will accompany her to her chamber. Everyone should go sleep now."
I almsot choked of a shock. So he asked his concubines to take me to my room? If only I listened earlier, it won't turn out this way.
We walked upstairs. He said that my chamber is in the highest part of his palace. We passed through different sculptures and paintings in a wall but my body is still in a nervous state! I mean— we're still walking! How can he carressed my hips like this?! He was not holding my arms, he's freaking touching my waist!
"I-i t-think you s-should take a d-dis..."
"No." he quickly answered as if he already knows what was I going to say. "Why would I take a distance? You're my wife, and your body is now mine."
I didn't blushed. I'm getting more nervous because of what he said!
We reached a hallway with only one big door. The door is made of a glass and it was designed by fires in every angle perfectly. Just how can this door exists in here?!
"This will be your chamber." He opened the door using his own piercing.
I was too stunned to speak.
I thought my room's theme is as gloomy as outside. I thought I can see fires everywhere, I thought I'll sleep in a hell precisely.
But that's only just my thoughts.
"You love purple, so I made your chamber's theme like this. I also bought your new clothes and its in your closet, I brought your stuffs in your world, so just speak if this is still not enough."
I suddenly felt an eerie feeling like my heart has been floating in a galaxy. What is this? I'm already dead but I still can feel my heart beats.
"T-th-thank you.." I lowered my head instead of looking at his eyes. "Y-you can n-now get ou—"
"Why would I?" he responded. There he goes again saying his famous line, 'Why would I?'
"You're my wife and I'm your husband. We're already married. I heard wedded couples in your world will sleep in a one room." he smirked as he looks at me while playing his tongue.
Evil plan alert!
Oh no. I hope he won't know that other thing—
"And I heard they even have this 'Honeymoon night' where wedded couples celebrate their special day with each other."
He take a long stride towards my direction without breaking his stares.
"D-don't c-come.."
"Should we do that tonight?"
The Demon Lord suddenly held my waist and pushed me in my bed. I felt my back bumped into a soft bedsheet, but that's not the time to get amaze.
He suddenly hop in my front and started smooching my neck. I'm definitely frightened. My whole body is shaking.
From being a bully, to getting involve to a grotesque scene like this with an unknown man, how did my life became like this? I shouldn't have born in the first place!
"P-please.." my eyes became watery.
"P-p-please n-no..." I started sobbing. That's when he paused and looked at me with such an intense stare.
"Why are you crying?" he wiped my tears using his thumb finger. "Tell me if you don't like me to do it right now, we can do it tomorrow."
I didn't get to response. No matter how I'll stop him today, he will still continue in tomorrow.
He gets up and was about to remove his coat but I stopped him by holding his hands.
"N-not today S-satan.."
The fact that my physical and mental state is not ready yet, so atleast for tonight, let me rest for a bit.
The Demon Lord stared at me for a second and then sighed. "If it's your wish, then it's my command."
He fixed his coat. I thought he would go outside but instead, he lay down in my side.
"W-wait.. I-i tho—"
"Sleep." he whispered and wrapped his arms around my waist. "I won't do anything to you."
I flinched. He really knows my expressions well.
"I promise you'll not be bullied again. You'll be respected in my place. You'll be safe in my arms, Venus Fox. So don't ever think to leave me."
I was wrong.
I waited for an angel to get my soul, but the one who gets it was a Satan.
Just like a child that's been hugged by her father, I slept that night in the arms of..
Him, the Demon Lord Satan.
