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’.

The Black Mage (1)

Iris tried to ignore Queen Heloise's presence. She would be lying to herself if she said that she wasn't bothered by the nymph's presence. She hadn't been in a romantic relationship before meeting Lord Kieran, but she wasn't dumb to not know that she should stay away from his previous lover and not to cause any scene that others could use against her.

"Calm down, my darling. You don't need to entertain her if you choose not to. I'd rather you not have any encounters with her. Who knows what kind of order the Red King has given her before sending her here." The demon lord murmured next to her ears.

"It's easier said than done, beloved." Iris replied, forcing a smile on her face. She was aware that everyone's eyes were on them. "I wish I could pretend that everything is alright, but I know too well that she's here to find something that could be used against us."
