Chapter 172
SWOOOSSSHHHHH..!!!!
Everyone gasped loudly and several guards ran towards me and my father who was their Alpha king,
hoping to protect us from the Demon’s sudden attack. However, knowing that there was another figure
standing between us and the Demon made everyone breathe a sigh of relief knowing that we were
untouched and unharmed.
However, that relief was soon replaced with shock and fear.
Yes, it seemed that they recognized the man.
Staring at the man, I gasped loudly as I recognized him.
Oh my G od, he was….
“The pretty guy in the market?” I shouted in surprise which made my father startle as if he knew who
the beautiful man was..
“You were looking for me, Asmodeus?” the beautiful male figure spoke and his voice was still the same
as I remembered.
Oh my G od… Why does his voice give me goosebumps this time? I thought strangely and my father
immediately looked at me with a deep gaze, as if he knew something before turning back to the
laughing red-eyed Demon.
“Harharhar… Astarootthhh…. There you are!” The Demon named Asmodeus shouted as if he had just Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
met an old friend.
What’s wrong with him anyway? I was confused and annoyed by the Demon’s strangeness.
“Don’t mince words, what do you want?” Again the beautiful man spoke coldly and expressionlessly;
was he like that before? I remember him always smiling when talking to me, I thought as I recalled our
meeting the other day.
“You disappeared, so I missed you, Astaroth” The Demon’s reply made me almost raise my eyebrows
in disgust.
Does he have a thing for this beautiful man?
Wait a minute…
He called him… Astaroth?
Isn’t that the name of another Demon? I remember reading about him too.
My eyes rounded in shock as I recalled the things I read in the book about Demons.
“Oh my G od, you’re a Demon too?!” I shouted in shock while pointing my index finger at the beautiful
man who only blinked his eyes at me before looking back at the Demon in front of him.
Sh*t!!!
Why are the demons here?
Why in my father’s territory?
“What is this Astaroth? Why are you always here?” Asked the Demon with an evil smile to the beautiful
man who was also a Demon.
What’s going on here?
Why are they here?
“It’s none of your business, now go and leave them alone” replied the beautiful man with a cold, bass-
heavy voice that again sent chills down my spine. The demon named Asmodeus shook his head while
continuing to smile sarcastically “At first I thought you liked the queen, but….” He paused and gave a
wider evil smile as if he knew something before running at the speed of light towards me “It’s the little
princess you love” He shouted at the same time I felt someone pulling my hand and opened my eyes to
see a long sword extended towards me.
Everything was like slow motion and I could only widen my eyes in shock and fear when I saw a figure
pulling me away from the sword only to see it stab into the b*dy of the man who would always protect
me from everything that happened in this world.
The man who was my first love, the man who always spoiled me even though he knew I was a bad
child.
Yes, my father, the Alpha king risked his life to protect me with his b*dy.
“NOOOO… DADDYY…!!!!” I screamed as the tip of the sword pierced my father’s b*dy and I only got a
small scratch before the red-eyed Demon laughed and disappeared from sight.
“COWARD!!!!!” I heard Astaroth shout before he bent his b*dy to examine me. “Iris… Iris… are you
alright?” He asked me frantically and surprised me with the concern he showed.
What?
Why does he care about me?
Shaking my head, I pointed my index finger towards my father who was currently being hugged by my
crying mother “my father… help my father” I sobbed
frantically and he looked at me as if to confirm my condition before looking at my father.
All the guards who were there snarled at him, but Astaroth ignored them and just bowed his b*dy while
talking to my mother who was currently hugging his injured mate’s b*dy.
“Queen Luna, may I see him? I’m the only one who can heal him right now” I heard the Demon named
Astaroth say softly to my mother who at first just stared
at him, but she finally nodded her head and handed over my father to be examined.
I crawled over to my father, with tears streaming down my face. My mother hugged me and we
encouraged each other by hugging each other.
Oh G od, please help my father….
Please G od, don’t take him away from me, not yet, please…
and It wasn’t long before they slowly carried my father’s b*dy into his room, my mother and I followed
behind until Alice and Melissa came to me, realizing that I was also injured from the tip of the sword
that was slightly stuck into my b*dy. Astaroth, who heard that I was injured, immediately looked over
from my father who was being lifted up and within a few steps he was staring at my bleeding chest.
What?
Why is he this worried about us?
Who is he?
Why would a Demon have such concern for me and my father? I thought in confusion.
“Are you okay? Take off your clothes, I’ll check you too” He ordered quietly, but all the women who
were there hurriedly blocked me from his sight which made the Demon named astaroth look angry
“What the hell are you guys?!” He said irritably.
Melissa quickly raised her hand as if to calm him down “Astaroth, she’s a girl, there’s no way she’d
undress in public, right?” Her words seemed to explain to him, but why did she have to explain it to that
man? I thought back confused. However, it wasn’t long before my head was dizzy and my b*dy felt
weak. What is this? I thought confusedly before feeling that I was about to fall… Oh no… I thought
worriedly as I saw the ground getting closer.
However, the more surprising thing was that there was a figure of a hand reaching out towards me and
holding my fall.
A hand that gave a strange vibration to my b*dy that I had never felt before.
This…
What is this feeling?
Whose hand is this? I thought confusedly before losing consciousness completely without realizing that
it was the vibration that occurs when you come into contact with your fated mate.
