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’.

Failure Is Not an Option (1)

Killian could sense the growing imbalance of power in Iris's body. Although she was now a demon, the power of the dark abyss was too much for her to handle. The dark abyss was originally a deep-seated prison. The other gods were keeping Melinoia. The place was teeming with so much power that no single creation, not even an archdemon like Killian, could control it entirely. 

The blood of the golden mermaid, a mythical creature known for its healing properties, was supposed to help Iris strengthen the boundary between her power and the dark abyss. Killian knew he had to intervene before Iris lost control completely. Thankfully, Chrysanthe's ability to brew powerful potions and tonics had improved dramatically; no doubt her Unseelie husband was teaching her. He and Zephyr might not get along very well, but Killian admitted that the Unseelie King was unparalleled in his knowledge of alchemy.
