EGO

UNINVITED

Devin nodded and made his way through the portal, entering into the Demon Realm. Wearing all black he walked through the cold hallway and stood in front of double doors. The doors opened by themselves and nineteen of his brothers sat around a large table.

His brothers were all different colors, ages and heights. All were very handsome but carried a darkness in them that overtook any ounce of humanity they had left.

"Devin, you're finally here. We could not start without you dear son....have a seat."

The Demon King was in human form. He had slick jet black hair, a mustache and chiseled features. Devin took a seat while his other brothers stared at him, including Damion.

"Merlon, I was told that your fifth child has been born, congratulations."

Merlon nodded as his blonde hair hung over his shoulders. The other brothers spoke their grievances of what belongs to who and who should be the heir to their father's throne.

Devin sat back observing everyone, he had no interest in anything they were arguing about but still wanted to know what was going on.

"Why do you feel you deserve the throne, Walter?" Eron asked with red eyes and bleached spiked hair.

"I am the oldest and most responsible. All of you only care about sex and money....that's such basic thinking." Walter looked more polished with his close hair cut and smooth shaven face.

Nevell's long black hair covered his face as he leaned forward. "What else is there to care about? No one is going to come against us but maybe the Spiritual Realm..."

"I hear the princess is looking for a husband. I can make that happen." Eron smirked.

Devin thought about how soft Mina's skin felt and how wet he made her.

"Anything you want to say, Devin?" The Demon King smiled, being able to see what Devin was thinking.

"Oh..no father."

"Are you sure?"

Devin looked at Damion. "Is there a reason why your friend Cedric wants unlimited access to the Demon Realm and Underworld?"

Damion grit his teeth while all eyes were now on him.

"Still keeping the company of that wanna-be....what a joke," Walter said.

"He has a huge following and having access to the Underworld would actually be helping you, little brother. The people that follow him are in high places and can influence many in a short period of time. Has that whorehouse brung you any souls lately?"

"That's not what Begonia is for and I don't need to trick anyone for their soul."

"Is that right?...Didn't you make a young woman think you were in love with her...but then she took her own life because you cut her off." Damion smirked.

"I didn't trick her to believe anything, her death wasn't my fault."

"It wasn't but you don't believe that...do you?"

Fuck him, Dev...don't listen to him.

Devin changed the subject. "I don't trust Damion, so he is banned from the Underworld until further notice."

"You can't do that!" Damion yelled.

The Demon King smirked. "He's the King of the Underworld, he can do whatever he wants. Does anyone have a problem with his decision?"

No one said anything and Damion remained quiet. Devin could feel his brother's stare bearing down on him so he returned the gesture not flinching. The reds swirling in Devin's eyes caused Damion to retreat and look away in fear.

"So who's going to get the Princess?" Nevell asked.

Walter's eyebrows furrowed. "Isn't she inexperienced?"

"Yup, never been touched."

Devin smiled, looking down.

"I want Devin to go after her..." The Demon King said.

"What? I can't do that."

His father smirked. "Why not? You already finger fucked her."

Devin looked surprised. How the fuck does he know that?

"I know everything, son."

All his brothers smiled looking in his direction...even Damion.

"I'll get her father. Devin, make that your last time touching her, Mina is going to be mine," Ericson announced, staring at Devin.

This isn't gonna turn out good for Mina....at all.

***

After the meeting, Devin got up to leave but was stopped with a question.

"Do you know where the Deru is located?" Walter asked.

"What's a Deru?"

"It's a stone of power that would take the Demon King off his throne. Whoever got it in their possession would make father's retirement sooner than later."

"Good thing I'm not interested."

"You should be...cause your throne could be taken just as well."

"If that happens, then it was meant to be."

Walter smirked. "Do you even want to be the King of the Underworld?"

"You mean, did I ask to be the King? No, but now that I am, I take my responsibilities very seriously. Is there a reason you're telling me about Deru?"

"Just fulfilling my big brother duties." Walter's gaze panned over to Ericson and Nevell.

Devin smirked then walked away.

I guess those two are going to be a problem. You know you can't let Ericson get close to Mina, right?

Ollie, who Mina chooses to date, is none of my business.

Ha! You don't believe that one bit.

Devin didn't but he was trying to keep his mind off the obvious. He decided it would be easier to portal where he needed to be instead of flying...it just made more sense.

Once he was back in Vegas, he paid Aunt Honey a quick visit.

"I see you're enjoying your retirement, Auntie. You look good."

"Why thank you, Nephew. Retiring was bittersweet but a lot sweeter than bitter. How's everything going at Begonia?"

"It's going well....more workers, more clients. The waiting list keeps growing every year. I never knew that many women would be interested in sex work."

"You'd be surprised how many do it for kinks alone. But I'm also sure that a certain owner's reputation and good looks he got from his Aunt Honey has a lot to do with it too."

Devin laughed then took a sip of his peach iced tea. Talking to his human family made him feel normal so whenever he got the chance to talk to his parents or Aunt he did.

He shared in a few more laughs with Aunt Honey then he heard a voice he didn't want to hear.

"Well, well, well...if it isn't Devin. How have ya been, youngin'?"

Fuck...Not Randall.

What the hell is he doing here?
