"You handled the witches very well," Roshan told Lucian. "I know," Lucian said. "Arrogant bastard," Roshan muttered which caused Lucian to smile. "I learned that from you." He said. "I am not arrogant." Roshan denied. Lucian raised a brow. "You are. But in a tasteful way." "Is that supposed to make me feel better?" "No." Roshan chuckled. "You are becoming more fun to be around." Lucian came to a halt. "Roshan. I need to know everything about demons." "You are going to meet…

Things were going well for Lucian. The people of Decresh liked and appreciated the changes he had made, he had learned a lot about being a demon from Roshan and being a witch from his mother. His brother and those who wronged him were rotten in the dungeon and he would visit them sometimes to add salt to their wounds. His enemies still feared him and kept their distance. Maybe the rumors that were not rumors at all were good for him. Most of all he was happy because his beautiful wife was pregnant and…

I don't know what happened to me. I went from having no appetite at all to craving food all the time. But food was not all I craved. I glanced up at Lucian from where I sat across him on the table. He was eating calmly in comparison to me who was trying to stuff everything at the same time in my mouth. My body ached as I studied him in silence. Even though I was sore I wouldn't mind going back to bed and do last night's deed all over again. "You are looking at me like that again." He smiled. Stop…

Lucian couldn't stop thinking of what Roshan had said to him. He couldn't stop recalling his mother's sad eyes. He couldn't stop recalling what it had felt like when she had hugged him. The way she had made him feel warm and safe. Lucian couldn't understand why she had abandoned him but he thought that she probably had a good reason. He hoped so at least. The sweet scent of Hazel suddenly filled the air. It made Lucian turn in bed so that he could see her. She had just changed into her nightgown and was…

Klara and Hazel sat at the garden, watching while Roshan trained Lucian on how to fight. Klara already knew that Lucian was a very skilled swordsman, but she was very surprised at how quick Roshan was. She could barely detect his movement and he avoided every strike coming from Lucian without effort. While fighting he was instructing Lucian on how to hold his sword, how to stand and how to strike. For someone as skilled as Lucian to receive instruction just seemed unimaginable for Klara but at the same…

"Do you have any siblings Roshan?" Rasmus asked as they took a walk in the castle. "No," Roshan replied. "Then you probably don't know how I feel." "How do you feel?" Roshan asked even though he already knew since he could read his thoughts. "My sisters are all I have. I have raised them, educated them, protected them, provided for them and in return, they gave me a reason to live. Now, both of them are leaving." He paused. Rasmus had a difficult time letting go of his sisters. "I want…

Klara woke up looking forward to her day after such a long time. Her body ached sweetly from last night's activity and her cheeks grew hot as she remembered the details. Oh lord, how could she have behaved that way? Slowly she turned in bed expecting to find Roshan sleeping next to her but to her surprise and disappointment, he wasn't there. Sitting up she looked around. He was nowhere to be seen. For some reason, her heart raced and her stomach turned. "Roshan." She called. But no one…

"No!" Klara shot her eyes wide open and her heart jumped inside her chest. Quickly, her hand flew to her neck and she let out a sigh of relief when she realized that it was only a dream. In the dream, Roshan had bitten her against her will. Was it maybe because of what happened last night? Klara had seen Roshan's eyes turn a dark red and his fangs elongate. "You shouldn't have done that." He told her and then leaned into her neck. Klara had stiffened in fear. It wasn't that she was scared of…

Klara lay on the grass under the starry night sky. Something she thought she would never do. The stars and the moon brought back memories of her mother. Klara could still clearly remember how her mother used to sing to her lullabies while they watched the stars. But it was also under those stars that her mother got killed. Just as clearly as she remembered the sound of her mother's singing she remembered her screams as well. Her mother, a brave woman with a big heart had hidden Klara, Astrid, and Rasmus…

Brother?! It was a word Lucian hated to hear. Every time someone called him brother, they said it with distaste. It reminded him of his hateful brothers. But today when Roshan called him brother, he detected no distaste in his tone. It was rather playful and for a short moment, Roshan felt like a brother. Lucian shook his head in denial of his feelings. Why would Roshan feel like a brother? That man was annoying. Still, Lucian had to admit there was a sincerity in Roshan's eyes that made him feel…
