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’.

Under the Moonlight (1)

Iris awoke with a groan. Rolling to her side, she pressed a hand on her head. It pounded ferociously. She wondered if she had used too much of her mana, because this had never happened before. Memories of the fight against the dark elves and tortoise golem slammed through her head at once.

She tried to bolt to her feet, intending to find Amelia and Chrysanthe, only to collapse back on the bed. She doubled over with a long groan and pressed her head on the makeshift bed she was lying on.

Gradually, the familiar scent of grass reached her nose. Iris could hear the trees singing, rousing her from her slumber. She sat up, only to realize that she was lying on the grass by a pond. She found herself at a clearing. There was no one in sight and the sun was about to set from afar.

"Melia? Chrys? Are you there?" She called out, knowing that her two friends would never abandon her while she was in deep slumber, but no one heeded her call.
