Chapter 75: My Everything (End)
**The Demon's Love**
*Chapter 75: My Everything (End)*
Zaren’s
Everything has to end which was why this very day, Louis, Evangeline, Amari, Rymond, and me were standing before the emperor. Beside him was a eunuch who was carrying a golden and royal edict. This was when he said he’d give us acknowledgement and by the order of the emperor, those who threatened his position was beheaded. The Prime Minister’s daughter was spared as she didn’t know her father was revolting but thankfully enough, she didn’t get the greed and cruel nature of her father.
Otherwise, the emperor wouldn’t show leniency towards her.
I smiled at Amari then we sequentially said our greetings to the emperor.
“Long live, Your Majesty.” As our loud voice rang throughout the hall, everyone was in a good spirit. Amari wouldn’t get hurt since her Uncle was dead, even Bal wouldn’t be able to harm her since he had been punished.
All was left was the peace that we had been waiting for. With a satisfied smile on our faces, we lifted our heads to the emperor who gave his nod to us.
The emperor looked at his officials before announcing with proud.
“Under the heaven, I now terminate Rymond Tanvil’s banishment to the Magic Tower. He is now titled as ‘Dragon Lord’ and whoever challenges his title shall be punished accordingly,” he smiled at Rymond who nodded at him, “Evangeline Grace, with your magnificent and important help to the team, I now bestow you the title Saintess Crystal Von Alexander. Amari Valkyrine, I now change your name with Grand Duchess Eleanor Von Valkyrine, and lastly Zaren will be promoted as Grand Duke Zaren Von Valkyrine.”
The four of us bowed our head with skepticism, glancing at Louis who wasn’t called. Upon lifting our heads, we saw the emperor approached us and tapped Louis’s shoulder.
He stated, “I now pronounce the engagement of Louis Belgium Alexande with Saintess Crystal von Alexander.”
Louis confusedly looked at us, then to the Emperor. Everyone seemed surprised, especially Crystal who didn’t expect this at all. Amari giggled, holding my hand and grinning at me. We congratulated Louis since it had been his long wish the moment he saw Crystal. Now that it had come true, I don’t know how elated he must be feeling right now. His emotions must had been exploding all over the place.
After a meaningful time, they both accepted the decree and after that recognition, everyone had been living peacefully.
It was like a fairytale.

Two months after.
Rymond was still as annoying as ever, but Amari was still as gorgeous as the first time I saw her. Everytime I put my eyes on her, she became prettier and lovelier—I can’t get enough of her. The sky tonight seemed to be filled with stars, so I entrapped Amari between my arms and endlessly pecked her lips down to her neck.
“Wait, ahh, you’re tickling me.” She held my arms, but I didn’t stop as I feel like she was stimulating my desires. And if that wasn’t enough, her smiling mouth was enveloped with me the next second and her clutch on my arms tightened.
I don’t know why I feel so elated each time she held my arms and loosened her strength. I parted my lips from her, our foreheads bumping into each other as our mouths were glazed with our affectionate love for each other.
“Amari, didn’t you say it’s the best time we must make Arvhin?”
She blushed, “… W-well, I did say that but you’re doing it each night. Are you not tired at all?” I grabbed her neck, lightly kissing her forehead.
I explained, “I can’t get enough of you, I feel like I am obsessed with you. I want to touch you; I want to be as close to you as possible.”
He red cheeks became even redder when my words fell. However, I wasn’t bluffing, I really was sincere about it. I can’t help but hug her and kiss her as many times as possible. Maybe my love for her was so big that I can’t restrain myself and just follow what my instincts told me.
I leaned forward, hugging her again and patting her back.
“I’m sorry, I must have pressured you. I will control myself so you can rest assured that I won’t ever force you if you don’t want to make love with me,” I happily grinned at her, “Cuddling is good, too. So why don’t you hug me tighter?”
I offered to her to which she nodded her head with enthusiasm.
I laid on the bed while she was on top of me.
“Zaren, what if Arvhin wasn’t the one I give birth to but a girl? What will you feel?”
I smiled at her, stroking her cheeks. “It doesn’t matter what gender our baby has; it’s my baby and I will love him or her unconditionally.”
She pursed her lips, “What if something happens while I was giving birth where you need to choose over me and the baby?”
“I will pick you,” I responded without hesitation, “I know you feel bad or offended about it but you’re the mother of my child and if that child endangers you and has low percentage of living; I will pick you. You are more important to me. The baby is important, too but compared to you and the baby, I won’t be able to take care of the baby without you.”
“What if I am the one who has low percentage of living?”
I smiled at her, “I will pick you. I will choose you no matter what.”
She kissed me and as our kiss deepened, I recalled our first meeting with each other. Maybe because we killed darkness that the memories of the past returns to me. I was ten years old back then and I met Yula, who was always arrogant but rather than disliking her, I became to bear feelings for me since she was persistent of being friends with me.
I was happy being with her that I felt like I was the most fortunate guy in the world. I love her ever since then and when me and my parents had to leave them, I was so sad that I cried each night that passes.
The young boy turned adult and after my parent’s death and dealing with other matters, I returned to her. My motive was to marry her, and it happened with a matter of our relationship. Back then, I was so happy that I wasn’t the only one who feels that we belonged to each other.
I was indescribably happy the moment I discovered she felt love towards me, so I seized the moment and proposed to her.
I even assumed she would turn me down, but life has other choice and gave me a chance to prove conquers all without any hesitation.
As I kissed Amari’s bare back, I promised her that I will not stop loving her even if it’s our next lives and she loved it.
Life has a lot to offer and it didn’t take long before our child came into our life. Amari, no, Eleanor didn’t face much difficulty in giving birth to our child – a beautiful girl. She has green eyes just like mine and her attitude was like her mother.
“Dear my daughter, be strong and resilient like your mother. Love unconditionally and don’t forget us when you get older. I love you, my daughter.”
I grinned at Eleanor who smiled at me. I pecked her forehead.
“We’re parents now, Eleanor.”
She nodded her head, “We are, I am so happy Zaren.”
I caressed her cheek, “Thank you for giving birth to our beautiful daughter. I will cherish and love you both.”
She hugged me, “I thank you then.”
If I hadn’t seen you back then, would this life be of any colorful right now? Thank you for coloring this dull life I had – making it red and pink like I had wanted.
Amari would want to meet you, Eleanor. Amari’s soul was being kept in the temples and Daniel was the one taking care of it. Louis and Crystal’s wedding was around the corner. And me and Eleanor was living the life we had longed for – peace and warmth.
“The stars were so bright tonight, honey.” I told her.”
She leaned her head onto my shoulder, “They’re so beautiful.”
I looked into her eyes, “I will love you until the stars vanish.”
She sweetly smiled at her, “Either morning or night, I will accompany your love and share it with our daughter.”
We cuddled while our daughter, Ariel, was snoring in her baby bed.
“My family, my everything.”
