Chapter 28

Book:Damian's Demon Clan Published:2025-2-8

I was standing infront of the mirror. Running my hand down my light blue dress. I just can’t get over how soft this silk feels against my body and my hands.
I even did a good job on my makeup. I choose to go with light makeup with a little bit of blush to make my cheekbones really pop. Although I can’t help but feel like I need to add something to completely my outfit.
I hear Kristin whistle at me, ” You look beautiful. Damian’s mouth is going to drop open when he sees you.”
I smile staring at her from the reflection in the mirror. ” Yeah, well you look beautiful also.”
Her red silk dress fits her perfectly and her red lipstick really makes her lips look glossy and plump. Even her necklace matches perfectly.
Wait! A necklace! That is what I am missing, but I don’t think I have anything that will match with this dress.
” Can you help me find a necklace real quick?” I ask her
” Sure.” She says as her heels click against the floor as she walks towards me. She opens a draw on a desk revealing a bunch of gold and sliver necklaces, rings, earrings, and bracelets.
I am in complete aw at the sight infront of me.
” I just thought that was a normal desk. I didn’t realize it was a giant jewelry box. How did you know?” I asked her.
Kristin laughs, ” I thought the same thing, but Virgil also has one just like this in our room. So I figured it was the same. I guess, I was correct.”
Me and Kristin stand scanning through the jewelry. Even picking up a few necklaces and holding them up to my chest.
I go through at least twenty necklaces. Until Kristin holds up a sliver necklace with a light blue crystal on the end of it.
My eyes light up and a smile spreads across my face.
Kristin giggles, ” I guess we found the neck.” She says putting the necklace around my neck and clasping the ends together.
The necklaces is cold against my skin. The light blue crystal rest softly in my cleavage.
The buzzing of Kristin phones fills the room.
I play with the crystal gently rubbing it between my fingers. Staring at the necklace happily in the mirror. In top right of the mirror I notice Kristin is looking at her phone with a small smile on her face as she rolls her eyes.
” Let me guess, it’s Virgil?” I asked.
Kristin nods her head, ” Yeah, we should probably head downstairs. Since we are ready.”
I give a nod and give myself one more look over, before following Kristin out the door.
As we walk down the stairs. I can hear all the boys talking. As If they sensed us coming. All chattering has stopped and I can’t help but giggle at Virgil expression. When his eyes land on Kristin.
That dress really does make her look beautiful.
As I make eye contact with Damian. I can’t help but feel nervous and start to blush. He is staring at me intensity and roaming my body with his eyes.
” You look..” He takes a moment as if thinking of the correct word. ” Amazing.” He finally says in a soft tone.
Dean and Jared both whistle at us. Earning them both a glare from Damian and Virgil.
I can’t help but to laugh. I look down when I feel tiny arms wrap around my left leg.
I look down to see little Luna wearing a light purple dress with a matching purple bow in her hair. She smiles up at me happily.
” Aw! don’t you look adorable.” I say softly as I pick her up.
” Dada! Got dressed!” She says happily.
” Yeah? Daddy dressed you?” I asked.
She nods her head happily.
” Well, daddy did a good job. You look like a cute little princess.” I tell her.
She lets out a giggle as I hand her to Dean.
” Okay, time to go.” Damian say taking a small shot glass with orange liquid inside from a servant. He holds ot up to me and I gently take it from his hand. I stare at it as the smell of it makes its way to my nostrils. It doesn’t smell to bad, but it doesn’t smell good either.
” It’s the only thing that will keep you from throwing up. when we transport there. It maybe not taste good, but you will only have to do it once. It last for several hours.” Dean informs me as he gives Luna the same orange liquid.
She makes a face and gags a little, before whining. Dean quickly gives her a sipping cup. Luna takes her sippy cup and drinks fast to get the taste out of her mouth.
I guess I should take it. If a toddler can take it. I should be able to also. I put the shot glass to my lips and down the orange liquid as quickly.
I expected it to taste gross, but it wasn’t as bad as I expected. It taste just like the orange gummy candy my grandmother use to give me as a kid. They weren’t great, but they weren’t gross either.
” How did you not make a face?” Kristin says to me.
” It remains me of those orange gummy
candies. You know the ones that are shaped like cut peaches.” I tell her.
Kristin makes a face, ” If its like the ones I am thinking of. Those taste like orange flavor chalk.” She says causing Virgil to laugh.
” Yeah, those are it. I don’t remember the name of them though.” I tell her.
” They are called orange slices.” Damian says taking the empty shot glass and giving it to the servant.
He than pulls me close to him. My body hitting his rock hard chest. ” Lets get going, before we are late.” He tells the boys as he looks down at me. ” Hang on tight. If I drop you in the middle of transporting. You can end up in the middle of the ocean, or in the desert.” He informs me.
I nod my head and hug him tightly. One moment we are standing in the hall near the entrance of his masion. The next my hair is flying all over the place with the sound of the wind blowing into my ears. I look around and everything is a fast blur and hard to make out, but the one thing I notice is my feet isn’t touching a hard surface.
I cling to Damian a little tighter as I close my eyes and rest my head on his chest.
After a few minutes I open my eyes when the sound of the wind goes quiet and my hair lays flat against my back.
Damian smiles down at me, ” We are here.” He says softly. As I watch Virgil and Kristin appear out of thin air. Followed by Dean, Jared, Alex, and Boyd.
I turn around and I am in complete aw at the sight of this huge building. It was bigger than any masion I have ever seen. It was like looking at a castle. That I use to see in story books as a child.
” This isn’t the front entrance.” Kristin says softly.
” No, it isn’t. I chose the garden area incase anyone had a malfunction with their clothes. It also bypass all the demons waiting to greet me at the front entrance.” he says gently taking my hand.
” That is true, You aren’t well liked.” I blurt out nervously.
Shit! I said that out loud!
Dean starts laugh and to my surprise Damian is laughing also.
” Yes, You are right.” Damian says as he leans down and whispers to my ear. ” Stay close and don’t wonder off.” He tells me. He starts walking up the steps and opens the glass door. His grib on my hand tighten firmly.
We walk down a long red marble hallway. We stop infront of two giant double red doors. As Damian knocks twice the doors start to open on there own.
My eyes go wide at the sight in front of me. Demons wearing classy outfits were everywhere sipping on glass fulls of blood.
The marble red floors matches the red curtain, and the giant red water fountain in the middle of the room. It was loud as it poured blood out.
I swallow hard and look around nervously. I had just walked into a room filled with apex predators. They are don’t seem very friendly.
I watch as a women thats wearing a bra and underwear with chains around both her wrist is passing out the drinks. While another women is passing out small sandwiches.
” They are most likely slaves.” Kristin whispers low for only me to hear.
I nod my head but don’t say anything in response. This is the sad truth for us humans. Its either be slaves, servants, or food. Sometimes there are nice demons like Damian that allow you to live freely. All you have to do is donate blood and follow rules.
However what is infront of me is the hard truth about the humans reality.
