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 (2)

No wonder the Black Mage wanted to see the world in ruins. To be hated by everyone, and to have his only source of happiness forcefully taken from him, it's no surprise that Arman had lost any sense of semblance and went crazy. Iris didn't want to justify the Black Mage's sins, but she didn't think anyone could easily get over the fact that your own family was murdered behind your back.

Since Kieran had said that Arman was already a powerful mage by then, he must have borne a great regret and guilt for not being able to protect them. Being a magus herself, Iris also knew the feeling of being useless when it comes to protecting her friends.

"I didn't mean to make you upset, Iris." Lord Kieran said, looking at her worriedly. "But this truly happened, and while I understand his pain, I cannot condone his murderous actions towards innocent ones."
