Hey guys!! How are y'all doing. I'm soooo happy today, a BIG thanks to fatasshoee for being the first person to vote for my story. That's all buddies. Enjoy the reading experience.
Azel POV
Kaden. His name was Kaden. It was quite befitting for a cocky teenager like him.
But beneath all the arrogance and disdain there was a great deal of pain and suffering. The guy had seen his whole pack being slaughtered by hunters right in front of him and had almost been killed them too. If it was any other wolf it would had completely broken him. But the Alpha Wolf in him was particularly strong. He was particularly strong.
I couldn't help but feel sympathy for my mate's deceased family. I never knew them, but I felt the sadness. They were his family, a part of him that he lost. I sigh heavily.
"Anything wrong?", Kaden asks. His pale blue eyes looking up at me tiredly from the couch where he was sitting and watching TV. I thought I saw a flicker of concern in his eyes. No, it was probably just the light.
"Nothing." I say with a smile and he rolls his eyes turns back to whatever he was watching.
I take the opportunity to blatantly stare at him and trace his features with my eyes. He was just stunning, no matter what angle you at him. His sexy body was toned and his face was nothing less than perfection. I really did get a flawless angel as my mate. Luck was favouring me quite a bit.
"Didn't your mom teach you staring is rude?" He asks without taking his eyes off the screen, annoyed.
"I don't have a mom." I say with a small laugh.
"Huh? What do you mean you don't?", he looked confused.
"I mean I never had one in the first place, literally."
Kaden stared at me like I was batshit crazy.
"Demons are not born, they are created."
"By whom? How?"
I sigh. This has always been an awkward topic for me. It always made me question the circumstance of my origin and that was not a pleasant thought.
"Demons are all the evil in the worlds condensed into the form of a person. People often think that we can command the darkness, but in fact we are the darkness. We were created by Calaritanus, the converse counterpart of Selene."
"The Moon Goddess?"
I nod my head.
"And Calari-whatever, who is he?"
"The one and only god of the Netherworld. You could say he is my father, kind of........ He has many names, Devil, Ba'al, Iblis. Satan."
Kaden looked at me in utter disbelief. He looked shocked beyond belief. I sensed a sudden burst of fear flash in his eyes before he regained his composure. But he made sure to put a significant amount of space between us.
"So you're telling me.....that you are the son of Satan? But how is that even possible!! And didn't you say he was the counterpart of the Moon Goddess? What the fuck is all this!!!"
I rub my temple in exhaustion. This was obviously a bad idea. He knew literally nothing about my kind and thought we were all monsters. The information I fed him did nothing but harm to my already destroyed reputation.
"Kaden, I understand that this is far too much info. I told you all this because I didn't want to keep anything from you. You can comprehend everything at your own pace. Don't have to think too much about me and my realm. Focus on yourself for the time being."
Kaden relaxes slightly, but he still eyes me suspiciously as if waiting for me to change into the monster he thinks I am.
I sigh loudly, I've been sighing a lot lately, and get up to leave.
Kaden pointedly clears his throat as I'm leaving and I look at him questioningly.
"If I stay with you, is there any guarantee that you will not just kill me. Before you go ahead and deny, let me tell you that I know how this shit works. Demons don't have mate bonds so there's nothing stopping you from literally snapping my neck in half right now, whereas my mate bond would prevent me from hurting you even for self defence."
"Kaden-"
"I have nothing you could possibly want. I don't have a pack, or money or property. I'm an Alpha Wolf, which means I cannot conceive. I will probably kill myself before I let you feed on my life force."
"Kaden I-"
"We don't trust each other, we don't share the connection. It's best if we reject this."
"Liste-"
"You won't feel anything, all the pain will be on me so don't worry about that. I've survived worse, the rejection won't kill me."
"KADEN!! LISTEN!"
He finally stops his rambling and looks at me. His eyes are slightly teary, I can feel that even just talking about rejection seems to affect him a lot. The mate bond does shit like that to you.
"Look, we can't reject the- whatever this is. And you're wrong about how it can't affect me. In fact the rejection can literally drain the life energy out of me. You may survive, but I won't."
"Why? That's impossible!! You're a demon!!"
This is driving me crazy. I've already told him far too much, more than he should have known. But this concerns him as well, he does have the right to know about all this.
"Kaden, I know you can't possibly understand all this, just.....listen to me."
He looked like he wanted to disagree, but he just held his peace.
"Demons don't have mates. Honestly, we are considered unworthy of having mates. But, after I was sent to this Realm, I'm assigned a mate as a gift for my suffering......and to stop me from going back to my Realm."
"But wh-"
"Don't ask me anything more. I've already told you more than I should have."
Kaden gives me a stiff nod before going back to what he was watching on TV.
