Chapter 23 Chapter 23

"Damon," Dad said mysteriously

"What so special about him?" I asked frowning.

"He is a demon, king. People fear him, he ruthlessly, heartless and merciless. He cares for no one." Dad said things about that I'm already aware of.

People with height rank are usually filled all the above qualities.

"All these things don't make him different Dad. Most of the kings have all these qualities " I said bored.

"We only have this much information about him. You need to find out for yourself " he said not interested.

"Fine. When do I leave ?" I asked.

"Now" was his only answer. Which meant only one thing

Get out.

I went to my room to get prepared for a short trip.

"Remember. You're just gonna observe no killing " Dad warned me. Narrowing his eyes.

"I know," said and took off in my car.

I reached a small village near the forest. Most of the demons prefer Forrest to hide.

It's easy to not get noticed.

I walked towards an old shabby looking house, it was scary but I'm much er than that.

As soon as I entered the house I started getting ready. I don't have time to waste.

I put on my suit and climbed on top of a tree. It was big enough to have a view of the entire forest.

I was bored after waiting for more than four hours. Boredom was getting on my nerves, so I jumped off the tree but with my luck, there were rogues nearby which I hadn't noticed.

'Well this might take the boredom away' I thought.

But in beginning they were only two but, six more came out of nowhere 'holy mother of coconuts' I thought.

There is only one thing I can do at this moment.

RUN

I ran as fast as my legs could take me. I can take care of four to five rogues max but these were too many.

I ducked, jumped, and hit a few but there were still five and they were not giving up.

Suddenly I was pulled and pushed on to a nearby tree.

I wanted to scream but a cold hand was placed on my mouth. Enabling me to scream.

Then I noticed the darkest eyes I have ever seen.

His skin was pale and hair jet black. He gestured me not to speak by placing his index finger on his lips.

I was confused but nodded anyway He let me. Took a few steps back, that was when I noticed were really very close.

Something didn't seem right about him.

"Stay here, don't move," he said in a dark and heavy manly voice.

And walked from where he pulled me. I followed him quietly.

The rogues were still there sniffing and looking for something.

'Oh I forgot, they are looking for me. How can I forget silly me.'

The mysterious savior walked in front of them. They were instantly alarmed.

They started glaring and snarring at him. But he simply smirked.

And soon he was surrounded with black smoke which lifted him above the ground.

One rogue attacked him but he with his lift hand did some sign and the smoke surrounded the wolf's neck and slowly entered his nostrils and when it did his eyes went dim all the color from his body vanished.

He was dead in seconds.

He did the same with the next three and only one left.

The last wolf tried its best to tackle him. But the mysterious savior was too strong for him.

The same smoke surrounded him but this when it entered it exploded him inside out.

It was a horrible thing to see. And I was shaken from within.

He is a monster.

When he was done them. He turned to me.

That's when I let my guards up and pulled out my swords and kept it protectively in front of me.

"Silly girl, I won't harm you," he said walking towards me. But I didn't move.

"I don't trust you,," I id gripping the sword more tightly.

"You should. I saved your life" he stated annoyed.

"That was ruthless killing," I said remembering all those horrible things he did, just a few minutes ago.

"They wouldn't hesitate to do the same to you," he said taking a few steps towards me again.

"Don't come any closer" I warned him by moving my sword further away. Pointing at him.

He lazily with the flip of his right hand my sword flew out of my hand and fell on the ground.

I was beyond surprised.

"What do you want?" I asked taking a few steps back. Away from him.

I'm not afraid, I'm terrified.

"Is this how you treat someone who just happens to save your life?" he said smiling. It was creepy.

"My apologies," I said when I saw the royal bracelet on his wrist.

He is someone important.

"Why are you here?" He asked " all alone"

"I'm on a mission sir," I said bowing my head only for a few seconds.

"What mission? " he inquired.

"That confidential sir," I said sternly. " I must leave, " I said and started moving.

"You're here to keep an on Damon," he said and it was not a question.

I stopped in my tracks.

"How did you know?" I asked facing him.

"I always have an eye open for my enemies," he said smirking.

My eyes went wide and I couldn't breathe.

"Are you-"

"I'm Damon"
