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’.

Not Even Me, Dear Iris (1)

Iris warily followed Rea and Nessa as they led her to the upper levels of the manor she was in. The grand marble staircase led to several empty and silent hallways, and only then did Iris notice that she couldn't sense any presence within the estate. It was weird to her, considering how massive the place was.

Her eyes took in her surroundings, trying to feel everything that could pose a danger to her, but there was none. When it comes to Killian Fleurnoir, she needed to be wary of the payments he would rip for the favors he bestowed on her.

The thought made her frown. She didn't like the fact that she was indebted to him. Wasn't he going overboard if he was merely helping her because of his promise to the Black Mage, or was he interested in the power she possessed, now that she was a darkling?
