The Incubus System

The Incubus System Chapter 348. Her Lover and Her Neighbor II

Mia's PoV

Her heartbeat sounded loud in her ears.

'Please move... Move...' she thought, pleading for her body to move from there. But no, her trembling body denied her brain's commands and stood there like a statue. What she could do was stare at him despite no spells or anything binding her body. It was the first time in her life that she felt this way.

In a panic, she tried to overwhelm his aura and appearance with her Medusa Eyes.

"Release me!" she ordered after mustering all her remaining courage.

But it didn't work on that demon.

"No. I want you to be mine," he said firmly. His gaze showed how serious he was. It was so overbearing even for a royal like her. It sounded like an order and as crazy as it may seem... There was something inside of her that greeted him with pleasure. Something she didn't understand and had never felt before.

Her brain was trying to guess what had happened to her. Was this hypnosis? Manipulation? But she was sure she still had her full consciousness. After all, she still could think rationally.

His other hand went up to her face. His palm pressed against her cheek and moved to rub her face slowly.

"You're afraid..." he whispered. His whisper sounded like a gentle breeze in her ear. Yet the intimidating look in his eyes told the other.

'Isn't anyone afraid of him?' she thought. But why didn't she move from there? Why didn't she scream or escape away? She didn't understand what was happening to her and it confused her a lot.

A bitter smile appeared on his lips.

"After everything we've done, all that intimacy and sweet words. Yet you're still afraid of me..." he said in disappointment.

"Isn't that unfair, Mia?"

She could feel a strange quiver in her heart every time he called her name as if it touched the deepest part of her heart.

"What do you want?" Finally, she let out her voice. If he wanted to kill or eat her, why didn't he do it right away? Why didn't he end the dilemma that was covering her heart and stop messing with it?

"You..."

"Do you want to kill me?" she said straight to the point.

"No... If I wanted to do it, I would have done it a long time ago. You are a precious person to me, I won't hurt you," he affirmed. Then he drew closer to her, so close until she could smell his scent. It was the same scent as Damian's. His hands shifted around her waist, making sure she couldn't run away from him and his face was close to her ear. His breath tickled her skin.

"I want you to be mine... Only belong to me. Then I will tell you a secret that was buried deep inside your memory. Your Kingdom's secret... Don't you want to hear it?" His voice sounded like a temptation that she couldn't resist. But one thing bothered her, was he trying to rule her kingdom through her?

"What do you mean?" she asked.

"It's about the angel... And the crystal..." he whispered again.

A flash of faint memories flashed through her head. It was bugging her a lot with her unbearable curiosity, but she couldn't remember it.

"What are you talking about?" she whispered. An overwhelming mixed feeling filled her head and heart. She was afraid, but also curious, confused and... One strange feeling that she couldn't explain. She didn't know what it was, but that strange feeling made her stay.

"It's a secret regarding the vaccine," he whispered.

She gasped. All questions about the vaccine filled her head. A question that made her not understand why her kingdom could monopolize this commodity for so long. This was what made her look for Emma and offer to cooperate to create a new vaccine. Unfortunately, no one wanted it since it was not an easy thing. Moreover, many countries and other large companies had tried to make it, but they failed after spending huge amounts of money. Some companies even went bankrupt because of it.

Although this made it as if she betrayed her kingdom, she wasn't. She was just looking for a middle ground between her kingdom and the human world's interests, so she thought... If she could come up with an alternative, at least she could balance the vaccine's price. Her sister would not be able to cut out the supply again. That was why she welcomed Myra's invention happily. Even though she knew the demon hunters couldn't rely on the bracelet since it wouldn't allow their skills to develop like her kingdom's vaccine.

"How did you know that?" Her curiosity began to devour her fear.

His hands slid to her back before he pulled her, hugging her tightly and making her lose her only chance to escape. Yet she found a comfortable warmth in his arms.

"Be mine. Then I'll tell you. All of it. Also, your kingdom's dark side that can destroy your people..." he whispered in temptation. His voice was enough to make her body shiver.

"I can't belong to anyone..." she said in a stammering voice. She was a crown princess. She must not belong to anyone, she must not bend her head to anyone.

"Don't you love me?" he asked. His voice alone was enough to tell how disappointed he was. And that... Made her heart ache. It was irrational yet the pain was real. Her broken heart was real!

Upon her silence, he distanced his face and looked at her. His disappointment was clear from his expression.

"Answer me, don't you love me? Is everything we do based on transactions? Am I... Just a tool to ease your mating period?" he asked. It was calm yet she could feel the overwhelming emotion of every word that came out of his mouth.

'No... You're wrong... I never thought of you that way. You are with me when I need someone to support me. You are a special person to me in the first place. But...' How could she trust a demon like him?

"Mia, tell me. Am I just your sex object?" he asked again.

"No..." Although there were many words she wanted to say, none of it came out of her mouth.

"Then be mine," he asked again.

"I can't... My Kingdom's rule forbids me..."

"I'm asking what you want. Not your kingdom's rule," he insisted.

She lowered her head, not daring to meet his eyes. Afraid he would devour her remaining sanity, even though she knew he had done nothing but speak and say whatever was on his mind. But his aura... His demonic appearance was a game-changer.

"A princess who fell in love with a demon... Doesn't that sound crazy?" she said in a gloomy tone.

"A human who turns into a demon after his death, doesn't it sound crazier? Worse, he has become the demon lord's son now and trying to balance his two worlds. Doesn't that sound even more absurd?"

His words made wild guesses run through her head. But again, his voice dismissed her thoughts.

"Mia... I need you," he whispered. She even thought that she had gone mad when she heard that. A demon... Need her?

She lifted her head slowly, trying to look at him.

"Your people need you. This is important, but I can't tell you until you're mine..." he continued. Slowly, his lips drew closer to hers.

"Give me a chance..." he whispered.

"Promise me, you won't betray me..." She finally decided to agree.

"I will..." Then his eyes glinted in red and the dark aura from his body spread out, forming a strange formation beneath their feet.
