" And they were met with Royalty. "

My eyes met with that devilish smile.

" How did you like it? Wasn't it warm and cozy?" I looked ahead slightly shocked. I'm actually in hell and it's prettier than I thought.

" I'm going insane." I replied, he deeply chuckled, " Not on my watch. " I soullessly followed the brother into the castle.

" So sweetheart, this is your new home. " Jaehyun spoke as if he stole the world's most precious jewel. That would make me the jewel.

" Jenyeon! " He called out carelessly. A sweet-looking girl, young, tiny yet so broken walked over to us in a maid outfit. The closer she got, the more familiar she felt. Where did I know her from?

" Yes, master? " She spoke, embarrassment and pain lacing her words.

" Show the new queen her room please, it's been empty got months awaiting her arrival. " My body shivered as his words, they've been planning this. So why is it just now comprehending?

" Follow me, please. " She spoke so softly, like an ocean breeze on a cool summer night. I followed her, a question slipping my mouth.

" May I ask where your parents are? "

" Dead. " She replied, though she spoke with no hesitation, you could hear the pain.

" I'm sorry... " Unaware of what to say back to her. Without thinking, I pulled her into my embrace, she hesitated but hugged back. I spoke as she cried into my shoulder, " My parents passed away as well, today actually. " She cried harder.

" They killed them. " I heard a faint noise leave her mouth as I ask her to repeat what she had said. She pulled away from me, her eyes puffy and pink from crying.

" I said they killed him. " She said with more aggression in her voice but immediately apologized. Pulling her into another hug, I whispered into her ear, " Should we leave here? ". She looked up at me, " That's not possible." I interrupt her, " Yes it is, I can train you to be a hunter like me. I finished training today. " She smiled at me and sniffled, shaking her head yes.

" Ah yes, Your room miss? "

" Jisoo " I replied smiling. " Jisoo, beautiful." She giggled softly. She led me to a room, opening the door, I immediately saw red. It was all I saw, maybe some gold accents but it was red. As if you were looking into a room of a massacre but it was a masterpiece as well. Beautiful furniture everywhere, set in place making it aesthetically pleasing to view.

" It's very beautiful Jisoo, I helped master decorate it myself. Took us a month, possibly more."

" I won't be here very long Jennie, Can I call you Jennie? " She smiled brightly as she shook her head enthusiastically.

" Well, Jennie, what are you doing for the next hour? " She sat down in one of the gold, throne esc chairs. " Nothing much, unless master-" I cut her off, my blood boiling, " Call him Jaehyun around me please, it disgusts me that he makes you call him that." She laughed, " Very well, I'm free unless Jaehyun has something else for me to attend to.". I was going to reply until I realized something, something about what Jaehyun had said earlier.

" As the next demon prince in line, I need a princess. "

" What's on your mind Jisoo? "
