Final

I said his name, which ended up putting the spotlight on me. Ignoring their curious gazes, I stared at Valmir. “Val~”

“Boy!” Cadis hissed out, cutting me off “Were you in on this too?” He looked over at Valmir. “I want you to torture and kill them both slowly!” Cadis ordered while pointing towards me and Angel.

“Shut Your Mouth!” Valmir seethed, sending a wave of uncomfortable silence and confusion as their eyes bounced between Valmir and I.

Combing my fingers through my hair in irritation of being silenced by Cadis, I clenched my jaw and cocked my head in there direction. Valmir Immediately went onto his knees, tucking his tail by his side and placing his left hand on his chest. “Wh-what’s happening?” Angel sputtered, looking at me with a questionable gaze.

I gave her, a reassuring smile before settling my eyes back onto the man behind her. “Valmir, you play too many games and have broken yet another rule.”

“Sire…” Valmir said, cowering beneath me.

“No worries Valmir.” Putting my hand up to stop him, while keeping my eyes locked onto Cadis. It amused me watching his well put composure faltering under my watchful eye. Behind his gaze, I could tell his impudent human brain was connecting the dots. “I owe this man.”

Cadis’s demeanor changed to something hopeful. “Exactly! You owe me and I-I promise to do better.” He bowed.

Peeling my eyes away from him and back to Angel’s “But a deal is a deal.” I mumbled out. An IOU was one thing but a contract was another and I’ve already done enough for that man.

“Wait…no!” Cadis pleaded “You owe me!” His eyes glanced frantically around the room before making his move towards an opening, but Valmir halted his plans.

“You see…” I said letting a bit of my Aura slip out. Valmir tried to keep his composure, but something as simple as that made the once great Demon, who was my fathers aid, quiver before me like a child. Pathetic really. Whimpers once again rang out, forgetting that this much of my power was a little too much for the mortal realm. I sucked it back in, keeping my eyes on the demon below me “…I am enjoying myself here.” I continued “I will let you take your prize as long as you keep what you saw here a secret. I do not wish to see my father, I ran away for a reason.”

“Sire, you know I cannot..”

“If father finds me…” I warned “…I will let him know of what transpired here. A demons training is just as cruel as a demons punishment…maybe even a little worse, if I suffer, we both suffer.”

“Noted your highness, I will not let a word of this escape my lips.” Valmir bowed his head.

“Great.” Lifting up my hand, all the whimpering ceased. All except Cadis. “I will take care of the humans memories.” I said appearing by Angels side before she could collapse to the floor. Peering down at her “You are too kind and righteous to have this on your conscience.” I gave her a small smile, this girl ignited something in me and I wanted to stick around find out why. “You may go.” I said to Valmir, who picked up a squirming and screaming Cadis. He nodded and opened up a portal by his feet before plummeting in. Cadis’s pitiful screams were quelled by the closing portal and at the same time, the fire around us diminished. Roaming my eyes around the room, I heaved out a breath of frustration. “What a nuisance.”
