Bride of the Demon Lord

Book 1 of the Brides of Darkness Series For hundreds of years, Calaren Town had been offering virgin maidens to fulfill their part on the treaty they made with the Court of Shadows to keep their small town under their protection. To be chosen meant death to the townsfolk, as there was no turning back to becoming a human again. Upon realizing that her younger sister was chosen as one of the maidens to be sacrificed by their impoverished town to the thirteen demon lords who once ruled their land, Iris Scarborough volunteered to take her place instead to save her. There was nothing exceptional about Iris, except for the secret she was keeping from everyone. However, even before she was taken away, Iris had already caught the eye of one of the demon lords. Rumors say that Lord Kieran Fleurnoir was the personification of death. His mere presence was enough to suck the life essence out of those around him. He was also known to be one of the strongest demons of all time, who possesses extremely dangerous and powerful magic. Taken to Asnar, a place filled with magical beings and monsters, Iris found herself enthralled and captivated not only by the place and its residents, but also by the cold and enigmatic demon lord, Lord Kieran. Once there, Iris realized that Asnar and Lord Kieran himself were different from what humans thought them to be. Loosely based on the tales of ‘Hades and Persephone’ and ‘Beauty and the Beast’.

Lord Kieran Awakens (2)

As he lay there, helpless and alone, Aiden heard a voice in his head. Lord Kieran's voice called out to him, telling him to wake up and open his eyes. Aiden struggled to do so, but eventually, he lifted his head and looked around.

"Kieran!" He exclaimed in disbelief.

Aiden couldn't believe what he was seeing. When Lord Kieran died after fighting the Red King, they almost lost hope that he would return. Yuri was able to keep a little mana of their High Lord, and Iris used all her magic in an attempt to revive him.

The High Lord fell onto his knees, feeling extremely weakened from being confined within the crystal for so long. He clutched his chest painfully as he struggled to keep his consciousness. He could feel his magic growing, but something significant was missing.

Aiden immediately rushed to his side, supporting him as he struggled to stand up.

"Are you alright, my lord?" Aiden asked, concern evident in his voice.
