One Hero Is Not Enough To Save The World.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Amael, the hero, singlehandedly wiped out more than half of the entire demon race all on his own and even won against the demon king. This should have put him at ease but unfortunately for the human race, the demon king and his race were fated to come back to life again after thousands of years, just like it's always been.
"You may have won this time Amael, but the next time, there'll be no one as powerful enough as you to save this world" the demon king cackled with a malicious laughter as he faded away.
"This is only a temporary peace..."
"Very well then... If this is what I must do to completely eradicate them, then I will"
Amael then made a decision. A decision he had hoped would ensure the safety of the future for generations to come.

YUMMY EXCERPT: updates every day
"Why are you protecting me anyway?" I swallowed a lump forming in my throat. "What's in it for you?"
"Yeah, Cass. I ask myself every day why I am doing this too. Before I sleep and the first thing that comes to my mind the moment I wake up? It's you." His gaze jerked up and clashed with mine, confusion darkening those gorgeous irises. "I'm doing things I never even wanted to do in the first place. Like messing up my mission as the heir of the House of Cups."
"I don't want to be indebted to you! I don't want you to get hurt while you kept me safe."
The more I spoke, the more Gabriel's pupils narrowed.
"Do you know why I'm doing this?" Gabriel chuckled without humor as he cupped my chin, forcing my face to his. "Because I loathe it when you are hanging out with some other guy. Someone who isn't me."
He pulled back and studied my face before shaking his head. "I want to kill them myself. There's a dark thought in my mind that says you are mine to own. And you are mine to kill when that time comes where I have to."
Gabriel's grip tightened and he leaned down, placing us nose to nose, his choppy breath traipsing over my lips. "You like taunting me by flirting with other guys too, do you? Well, guess what? It works. I can't fucking get you out of my mind."
He released me long enough to slam a fist into the wall just beside my temple. "The first kiss was a goddamn mistake. It was supposed to purge you from my thought, make me stop wondering what you taste like."

“No matter what, never fall for the vampire king.”
Kiara Whitman always knew her fate was twisted because she is the first hybrid, but things took a drastic turn when she was offered a contract marriage with the ruthless Valerian King. There was just one clause on the contract:
"Falling for Adriel Valerian is equivalent to death.”
But how could she follow such a clause? Her heart raced under his gaze, and when he spoke, her thoughts became foggy.
It was clear as day that if the clause was meant to keep her alive, she wouldn’t survive.
Unfortunately, Adriel, the vampire king, didn’t feel the same for her because he had his own plans for the hybrid princess; she was the key to everything he craved—his ultimate freedom from hell.
He had sworn never to let himself fall for her because it would be messy; he had to be smart, vigilant, and stay in control.
What will happen when Kiara finds out the real reason behind the contract marriage? Or when she discovers that she was just a tool for survival all along, just a possession to the vampire king and nothing less?
Will she decide to leave for good or stay to find out her purpose? Or at least seduce the vampire king, if at all that’s possible.
