Lilian POV

My skin is on fire with each and every touch that Demonia comes into contact with, his hands igniting a fire I have never felt before, only heard of. Mate's have the power to make you feel at ease and relaxed, also make your hormones suggestible to mating, especially in the early days of finding your mate.

Demonia is a man, everything about him to me is perfection, the way he looks at me with his stormy grey eyes or when he is in deep in through, the mate bond has worked so quickly with us that it feels like I have known him for way longer than a day.

My body is responding to everything he does, and my wolf and I love it, of course, this is all new to me and I know it is not new for him, by the way, he so easily found all my weak spots, I would say this is not his first time pleasuring a woman.

That really.. irritates me, wolves wait for their mates, Renoan demons are very sexual beings, he has most likely had multiple partners at once... It makes my gut twist in jealously, knowing he is not a saint.

"Lilian?" He says, pulling me back to reality.

He's breathing heavily and his eyes are a bright red, it should terrify me, he has large horns, red eyes, and very sharp fangs, he's older and not to mention a Black, the same Black who is the Royal Prince of the Shadow Lands.

The most dangerous yet beautiful realm to exist within the supernatural world.

"Sorry." I say sheepishly as I touch my hot face, he stares at me and it makes me and my wolf swoon at how attractive he is.

Possibly the most attractive male I have ever seen, everything about him screams power and dominance, he's intimidating yet he touches me so gently..

Maybe the rumors about him were just that? Rumors.

Demonia leans in towards my lips, his eyes focused solely on me, my heart is beating so fast I'm afraid I might pass out from being too excited and scared, the feeling is so new, he's so handsome and he accepted me as his mate, I don't want to make him regret it.

A knock at the door makes Demonia stop in his tracks, an inch from my lips. I push him off me as I try to steady my heartbeat, I look to Demonia to see his eyes blazing and the shift in the air turns.. scary.. like a switch had been flipped in him.

"Lady Lilian? Are you in there?" A voice calls from behind the door and I stiffen as Demonia focuses on me with mischief in his eyes.

I clear my throat. "Y-Yes, is something the matter?" I ask out, my mouth dry.

Demonia begins to rub his hand up against my leg, causing my toes to curl as I keep my voice in from moaning out at his touch. "Your father asked for your presence, my Lady." He says and I look to Demonia worried as he just shrugs and smirks into my thigh as he lifts my leg and begins to kiss me, his eyes never leaving mine.

He begins to suck hard whilst licking a spot that causes flutters in my stomach and I'm covering my mouth to stop my voice from escaping.

Is he enjoying this? This is not good, the guard will know what we are doing in here.

"O-Ok I'll be there in an s-second!" I call out as I bite my lip from how much Demonia is stirring me up inside just from a simple kiss.

Demonia lowers my leg and crawls on top of me, his muscles glistening from the moon outside the window as he stares down at me hungrily, blocking me from moving from the bed as he puts both of his hands on either side of me, trapping me. "Does your father know?" He asks with a grin as he grinds his large hard length in between my legs, against my.. lady parts.

I shake my head as I try to focus on his voice and not at how large he is, I've felt it twice now, there's no way that his large intimidating member is going to fit inside of me. "No, um, not yet." I say truthfully.

I have no idea how my father will react, at least he will now stop... hurting me, with a man like Demonia as my mate, I am safe from him, just as long as Demonia doesn't know, I can hold onto him for as long as possible.

I don't want him to know how worthless I really am.

He catches me by surprise and pecks me on the lips, he kisses me gently then pulls away, leaving me shocked as I lean up and watch as he begins to pick up his shirt and put it on, I watch as he buttons up each button as I admire how sexy he truly is.

A guy like Demonia Black must be only a dream for some women, it is truly unlucky he got stuck with a girl like myself. Can I really keep him satisfied? There are so many others out there who would be a better match for him, he is truly magnificent.

"Let's go, the sooner we get this over with the better." He says roughly and I pale at his tone.

What did he mean by that? Is he ashamed of me? My insecurities can't come in now, not when I finally found my mate.

I nod my head slowly as I move off the bed, still very much sensitive all over my body, every move I make is like I'm walking on a cloud, I still feel his hands all over my body.

Readjusting my dress, patting it down, smoothing it out again, I see Demonia studying me as he stands by the door, his arms crossed with a hard look on his face that makes me nervous, he looks so serious and scary when he just looks at me, but it does things to my insides, I know I should be scared of this man but there's something inside me that knows deep down he is not that scary.

I walk over to him, nervous from his stares but then he smirks as he begins to open the door for me. The guard is long gone and it's just me and Demonia in the halls of the castle now.

We begin to walk beside each other silently as none of us say a word and it makes me so nervous. His horns have disappeared and he looks to be a normal male, his hair is slightly messier because of me and it makes him look sexier, if that were possible, he catches me staring at him and I quickly look away and focus on where I'm walking.

He definitely caught me checking him out.. how embarrassing!

We get near to the party and my nerves are back, what is going to happen? I disappeared along with Demonia Black, the Prince and people noticed us leave, they must have all kinda of imagines going through their minds.

What is worse is that we were very close to mating, if not for the guard I would have completely forgot we have a castle full of guests, a welcoming party for the Royals of Shadow Lands, Demonia and his father the king.

Oh gosh, I'm acting like I'm in heat and it's all because of this sexy handsome mate of mine.

I feel my skin begin to tingle as I see Demonia's hand in mine, his much larger one makes mine disappear under his as he laces our fingers, making my hand look like a child's in his much larger manly one.

Oh gosh, oh gosh, do not blush! The tingles from him touching me form butterflies in my stomach constantly and I feel lightheaded from the bond.

"Let's do this shall we sweetheart? I haven't finished getting to know you yet." He says with a wink and my face grows hot, unable to react he opens the door and pulls me inside with him, his hand tightly holding onto mine, not letting me escape.

It's too late now, as he opens the door, heads turn to look at us, and almost instantly, the eyes of everyone in the room stare down our his hand in mine and I wished right there for the moon goddess to give me strength to not turn into blushing idiot.

As Demonia leads us through the crowds, I keep my head down, I feel his hot breath on my ear as he leans down to my ear. "Keep your head up, fuck these people." He says roughly then winks at me as I nod shyly. Fuck these people? What an odd way to say it but.. it helped calm down my nerves as I see my father with his by the fireplace, chatting actively.

My father turns and his eyes go wide when he sees us, or more like he sees our hands. I'm terrified of his reaction, before anyone could speak, Demonia grabs a drink and hands it to me.

I look at him confused. I have never drunk alcohol before, father refused it. "Apologies for our leave, I was just getting to know my mate." Demonia says and I stand gaping at him.

My father drops his glass and Demonia's father coughs out, both taken by surprise by how bold he is. "W-What is the meaning of this! Lilian!" My father whispers yells at me, his face growing red as he glares at me.

I freeze and no words come out as I now see from the quietness in the room that everyone is watching us. "Watch your tone, it's true, we are mates." Demonia growls out annoyed. "We have both accepted the bond."

My father stares at us, eyes wide with confusion and fury in his eyes as he gapes at us in utter shock, whispers can be heard throughout the ballroom and I feel myself grow nervous, if not for Demonia's hand in mine, I would surely be an emotional mess right now.

I try to ease the situation as I walk towards my father. "F-Father, i-"

He turns and takes a deep breath. "Is this true? You are true mates?" He asks silently and I look to Demonia, he smiles darkly, enjoying my father's reaction and I glare at him to see him shrug down at me.

"Yes, father, we are mates." I say nervously as he turns and looks back at me, calmer than before.

His eyes light up, catching me off guard as he smiles widely at me, knocking the air from my lungs as my father has never smiled at me before.

"Lillian! This is wonderful news, and to Prince Black at that, this is truly a miracle, what say you Demonia, we are family as of today! Let us celebrate!" My father says as he turns to King Black, who is still silent in shock, making me completely gobsmacked as I gather what is happening right now.

As the room begins to erupt in cheers and claps at my father's announcement, the room becomes lively again.

"Demonia-" King Black tries to speak, not before Demonia turns us around and drags me through the crowd of people again, heading straight for the door.

What is he doing? Why did he ignore his father?

I don't see his face as he drags me through the crowd. "Demonia, where are we going?" I ask out as I try and keep up with him, his steps are big and I have to walk twice as fast in heels to keep up with him.

He turns around and his face is hard as he glares at me, his hand squeezing mine more tightly as it starts to hurt. "D-Demonia that h-hurts." I mutter out as he leads us out of the room and slams the door behind us.

He lifts me up and carries me upstairs, to my bedroom with me in his arms, carrying me like a pup up the stairs, his eyes are cold and hard as he walks us to my bedroom, not once staring down at me or speaking to me.

He is so upset that he isn't even looking at me anymore, what is going on?
