Forced Bride Of The Vampire Lord

"Stefan! You are here!" Lucinda placed the book in her hands back and smiled with wide eyes as she ran to the young demon who held her in his arms.

"Yes, yes princess! I am back with a lot of more gifts. But you should not be running like that hugging a lower level demon like me. Master would kill me if he saw that." she ignored his blabbering as her hands already reached for the bags in his hands.

Stefan shook his head. "And here I thought that you would be happy to see me! I am hurt." Although he said that, he opened the bag Hazel had sent first and passed the new books to her.

"These books are specially protected with the spell of the dark witch. It will not be destroyed like last time." the eyes of the girl sparkled as she held the book.

It was a love story of a witch and a vampire. That was strange! Stefan never brought a love story before. It had a man with dark hair and crimson eyes and a girl with green eyes and silver hair. For some reason, she kept staring at them.

"Stefan, do you think I look like this man?" she asked but then shook her head, "i am sure all of them look the same. Why have you brought a love story for me though?"

She let go of the book, giving it a last glance and then checked other books. It was about their culture, their races and the last one was about their food. She picked the last one and started rummaging the pages.

"I thought you would like it. But I see that you still only like food." Stefan smiled as he opened the next bag and passed a lot of food to her.

"Then you are going to enjoy it very much." She let go of the book instantly and started eating the food with delight.

His eyes softened looking at the young girl who was handling most of the work of the hell alone. His grandfather seemed to be enjoying the fights and leisure time while she was working her butt off in handing all the demons.

"That was worth dying!" she exclaimed as she licked her fingers, "what was that again, cake right?"

Stefan nodded and she sighed.

"If only I could go there for once. I want to eat all the delicacies there." she shook her head.

"But before that, I have to work for you." gone were the child and returned princess of hell as she stared at him and opened the file.

"Two of the lower level demons were found missing. And an attack near the human village had happened on the very day. I want you to go and check the area.

If demons had attacked, I want you to summon the army and then bring them back. I will personally punish them."

She passed the file to him and then rummaged and took out another one.

"And now you are at it. I want you to check the recent cases of death too. I feel more and more spirits are losing their way while passing the river. Only lord knows if Lucas was still helping the spirits or asking for coins again.

But in any case, I need more of the spirits here." she rolled her eyes and then took another file when Stefan shook his head.

"Princess Lucinda.. I know that you have to handle all the work but why don't you go and enjoy yourself. I am sure the wrestling would be worth watching." he offered but the young girl shook her head.

"You know Eve hates me. Going to her area only meant that I would end up wrestling with her. So, I am better here. Now hurry up and leave, I want the report as soon as possible." she waved her hands when Stefan sighed.

After much conflict, he took out a chain from his pocket and passed it to her.

"Alright, i am leaving but i want to give you the last gift before that." he placed the chain in her hands and disappeared from there.

Lucinda frowned and stared at the chain. It has a crimson pendant just like her eyes that she could not help but smile.

She wore it and looked at herself in the mirror. Her silver hair still taunts her and her crimson eyes remind her that she was not a demon. She did not have golden eyes or dark hair like them but.. She still drinks blood and eats meat like them so it was all well in the end.

She had asked so many times why she was different only to see hurt in their eyes. They truly treat her like family save for her aunt Eve.

She shook her head as she picked up the romance book again and stared at the man for long before shaking her head and placing it back on the table.

"One day, I will run away and see that world with my own eyes."

......

"Once again!" Lucy sighed as she had already tried thirteen times but she was not able to disappear completely. Once, her upper half body was in the study of her father while her rest of the body was left here giving Rafael a fright.

"I do not think I am cut out to be a witch." she muttered but looking at the stern face of her aunt, she bit her lips and tried again.

"You are not paying your whole heart to it." sighed Anna as she waved her hands and brought the whole body of the girl back to one place.

Lucy touched her face and then looked at her feet with relief.

"I am a vampire not a witch. I do not want to be one too." she said adamantly as she puffed her cheeks and stared on the ground.

"Mother is just unreasonable with me since she expects too much. I do not want to live in the palace, I want to run away. I am sure even hell would be better than here."
