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’.

Back in Aisgarth (2)

How long had she been in deep sleep this time? Iris wasn't sure. This was the second time in this month that she fell into deep slumber due to excessive use of magic. She wondered how long it would take for her body to get used to it.

However, from the moment she cracked her eyes open, realizing that she was back on her massive bed in her chambers, she immediately sensed that someone was watching her. She turned her head and saw Lord Kieran seated on an armchair near her bed. Was he waiting for her to wake up to chastise her for her recent actions?

"Lord Kieran…" She called him out in almost a whisper.

Memories flashed through her mind, reminding her of their encounter with an Elder Lich and how Marcus came to her rescue. She wondered if her new friend managed to escape alive and was able to return to Greydale Town with Ali.
