Mated To The Demon Prince-Chapter 111: You Be My Queen

The following day, well, she wasn’t sure how they would tell if it was morning in this world since it was still dark and dreary outside. He had some of his female demons dress her up before dragging her to the unholy court of demons which she has been present before but in a much unpleasant situation.

They both stepped in with him giving the aura of an uninterested dark lord of doom with severe anger issues and mood swings while she walked behind him like a lost goat being brought to a room of slaughter.

Everyone either stared down at her in surprise or confused as they bowed in acknowledgement of their presence.

What had Evangeline pausing in her tracks in complete fear was the humongous snake that circled protectively around his throne? Her whole body began to shake in fear at the insidious sight which made her wonder just what else would be worth enough to have her mind paralyzed in fear like this.

The snake also seemed to notice her presence too and from where it was...it raised its massive head enough to devour a school bus at once and hissed menacingly down at her in its own twisted way of welcoming her to court. She almost died when its slit - shaped eyes remained fixed on her that she thought it had concluded to make her breakfast for today.

Another tear slipped down her widened gaze in horror.

Darkness paused in his movements when he sensed her distress. He placed his tall form before her and Apophis who just continued to hiss in its desperate attempts to make her fear it more than anything. It always does that to anyone who comes to court.

"Look at me."

Eva slowly tore her gaze from the enormous snake lingering behind him to his perfect form. He looks more gorgeous when he is dressed nicely as the King of the underworld.

"It can’t harm you."

What a sweet lie.

"But since you are so afraid, you can sit with them for now."

He said, pointing to a group of demons and at the empty seat in their midst.

Which was worse, to have yourself surrounded by a group of scary little demons or to have a giant, long anaconda snake slithering around you and beside the demon prince.

No one told her twice to choose the former. His eyes fell closely on her until she was settled and comfortable with a group of his ministers before everyone’s gaze fell on him as he marched fearlessly before the serpent god, Apophis and sat confidently in its midst.

Eva’s lips parted when the serpent submitted to its power by bringing its head on the demon prince’s lap. When those dark blue-red gazes found hers, she was the first to look away. The slight tremble that went up her spine, she ignored it and tried to focus on any other thing apart from his ethereal dark form on hell’s throne.

The court started, and she tried to be as comfortable as she could be but apart from Ree-ree’s frequent glances her way there was also one particular demon who took interest in her.

She turned her head slowly to the lord sitting beside her.

He gave her a fang smirk as his horns looked relatively braided on his bald head.

"Hi. I’m Venice."

Eva gulped and nodded before trying to look anywhere else. The least she would want is to start a friendship here in a place where she is being held a prisoner.

"Are you a new and special addition to his harem?"

Harem?

Eva has never looked this confused before in her life. Of course, she knows what a harem means, but she didn’t expect Ree-ree to be troubling her around when he has many women ready to submit, throwing themselves at his feet to please him.

"You see that group of gorgeous women over there," he whispered while pointing to about a hundred beautifully endowed demons all gathered, looking pretty in a corner. They were adorned with gold and wore the most eyesore of clothes, but you could see the power they each held and the unfriendliness and malice in their gaze.

She was nothing in comparison to any of them.

How would someone have these types of women at his beck and call and would still come all the way down to earth to mess with her life?

She turned to glare at him listening absentmindedly at the poor demons presenting to him several issues they want him to be responsible for.

His eyes locked with hers in less than a second.

How did he know...

She tried to understand this being.

He leaned lazily on his throne in an attempt to get more comfortable staring at her. Those cold and burning looks he came in with disappeared the longer he stared at her. And he looked charming.

Eva scoffed and turned away from him, which caused a smile to spread on his lips at her in amusement. She looks perfect when staring at her from this angle. He imagined those beautiful brown locks of her on her head and those soft brown adorable eyes of hers....

"Your Darkness?"

His gaze snapped to the buffoons who hadn’t yet read his face to know he wasn’t interested in their boring talks and pleas to him.

When it was all over, he turned to see his little precious already dozing off in her seat. He smirked as he admitted not giving her enough time to sleep properly.

The nasty demon sitting beside her wouldn’t take his eyes off her either. Darkness frowned in irritation as he descended the stairs and went to fetch his beloved.

She woke up the moment he reached her side and nodded to her for them to leave. As they left, she once again felt like a headless lamb being led to a place of slaughter.

Eva couldn’t help but glare daggers at his retreating form as they moved past some dark and creepy corridors.

She cleared her throat multiple times at him as he moved fast, and she tried to keep up with his pace.

"So...you have a harem?"

Her question was expected. That must have been what that nasty demon was whispering to her about. His lips curved in amusement.

"What do you know about a harem, Charlotte?"

Her lips grew red in a blush.

"A lot that you might be surprised about. I sometimes read novels, you know?"

"I know."

How does he won’t feel shameless about it before her? Here was she when she was still alive, being delusional to think she was the only woman in his life, just like how he was the only one she’d ever known since birth.

She couldn’t help the jealousy itching under her skin. The women were all looking so beautiful and gorgeous. She might be able to compare with them in terms of appearance now that she was Evangeline, but she must have looked like a rag doll beside them when she was still Charlotte. Which made her believe this enigma must have walked into her life with a more sinister purpose than romance.

"Do you want to be a part of my harem, Charlotte?"

The thought alone was absurd.

"N– no. Why would I be?"

"Exactly," he chuckled before taking a sharp corner. Once she followed his turn, Eva let out a sharp scream when he took her by surprise and had her pinned to the wall with both of his hands on the sides of her face. A devious smile on his beautiful face. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

"How about you be my queen, instead?"
