I follow her until we get to the castle, it's more of a classic castle but it's got decorations of flower on it, and it's really beautiful. Izzy takes the time to show me around the castle at the same time, and then we get to the throne room.
" Izzy you're back at last, we're not going to let you teleport anymore if it's like this" says a woman, she's as tall as Izzy, she's got purple hair and red eyes, and she's wearing a crown, I guess she's the queen.
" Yes Mum, next time I'll take less time but I've brought someone back. " She puts me forward.
"Good evening ma'am, my name is Lilith, it's a pleasure to meet you," I try to be as polite as possible.
"You don't have to go through all that formality with me, just call me Julie."
"Yes," I say with less stress. Another woman appears and she too has a crown, her hair is black and her eyes are brown which I find a little strange.
"Oh I think you must be getting the hang of it." She's not wrong, it's true.
"She's my second mum and she's also the queen, her name is Mai" I thought for a moment before answering.
"So there are two queens who rule the kingdom but there is just one thing that bothers me, how did you manage to have a child? "
"Demonesses can have children with each other, that's why we get rejected by the rest of the kingdom" Julie replied.
"You are the princess of Elspeth, aren't you?
"Yes, I am, but I think I'm no longer, because I've been literally thrown out of the kingdom. "Julie came up to me and took me in her arms.
" Don't worry, everything will be fine for you. Izzy, will you take her to one of the empty rooms please? " Her smile is emotionless.
"Yes," she says as she takes me to a room in the palace, I look inside and see that there is a table and a shelf with lots of books.
"May I ask why you chose this room?" I sit down on the bed.
"Well I suppose you might want to know about our culture." She sits down next to me.
"Yes, I'm very interested." I respond, she puts her head on my shoulder.
"I could answer your questions too. I know you don't really belong here." She lifts her head to look me in the eye.
"I'll do my best to make you feel really comfortable and integrated with the others. " She is too nice with me.
"Thank you, that's really nice of you." I yawn, "I think it's time for me to sleep now."
"Well I'll let you sleep in peace then. Unless you want me to sleep with you sweetheart." she had a naughty look on her face.
"We're not together Izzy you can't call me sweetheart." I take a pillow and hit her with it.
"Ouch." she starts laughing "So that's how you prove your love to me." she continues laughing before standing up.
"That's no proof of love for you Izzy." I sigh.
"Good night, sweetheart." She kisses me on the forehead, the touch of her lips on my forehead makes me blush a little. It's weird but her presence don't fit with the person I met in the forest.
"Good night," I say and then Izzy walks out of my room.
I lie down on the bed. Today was truly the worst day of my life. I lost my father and was driven out of my own kingdom.
I turn to the other side of the bed. I don't want to think about the negative, and now I have Izzy on my side, and I'm sure I'll learn a lot here, but I should stay be more careful here. I don't know what dad wanted me to understand with his last words.
Izzy is totally flirting with me, but I don't think she has any feelings for me. Maybe, but it was exactly the same with the Prince of Eden, but if I had to choose between the two, I would probably choose Izzy. Mom and Lise looked so sad when I left. It is on this last thought that I fall asleep.
The next morning I am awakened by the sunlight on my eyes, I get up and realize that since I arrived here last night I have not had a shower. I get up and look in the wardrobe, there are some clothes and a towel which I take.
I head for the bathroom and start to take off my clothes to take a shower. I put my towel down to go into the bathroom but to my surprise someone is in there.
"Oh you want to take a shower Lilith? "
" The heck are you doing here Izzy." I say surprised by her presence.
"I went into your room earlier and you were sleeping so peacefully that I didn't want to wake you up. " She seems to be proud of herself as well.
"No Izzy, don't ever do that to me again, and I'm sure you have a shower in your room. " I can't keep my eyes off her body, I can't keep a straight face with her body being so muscular.
"So you like what you see, sweetheart," she starts to annoy me with her teasing tone.
"Get out of here," I say, grabbing a towel, putting it on her and pushing her out of the bathroom. This moment was really embarrassing for me.
I showered quietly and brushed my teeth before putting my towel over me and walking out of the bathroom. I hope Izzy isn't still here though.
After this event every day was the same, Izzy would wake me up in the morning and quietly wait for me to shower, so we could go outside. Those were my favorite times, I got to talk to people and play with the kids. The queen would ask me question about my kingdom power.
Then in the afternoon I would when I go back to my room I will read the books about the demon culture. It's really different from what we were taught. According to my mother, demons were cold-blooded beasts that killed and drank the blood of their victims and were easily recognizable by their red eyes and horns I realize also that Izzy horns were quite long but when I saw her in the forest they were shorter.
Now that I lived with them, it's totally different there are very kind with people and take care of us.
I've been here for a month now, and I've really integrated myself with the others.
I get up, take my shower, I look around my room to see if Izzy is still there, but she is not. I get dressed as quickly as possible in a simple black shirt and trousers that I have found. I open the door to go out and Julie is waiting for me at the exit.
"Come with me Lilith" she says as she takes my hand, I think she wants to show me something.
I follow her without saying anything, I don't really know what to say.
"I know Izzy can be a bit clingy but she just wants you to be okay."
I had already noticed that.
"Today we have to teach you something."
Sorry for the spelling mistakes.
