EGO

KING

Walking through my domain, I felt a sense of excitement for the days ahead. Begonia was doing well and we now had three locations. One in the U.S, France and St. Lucia. Limited locations create more value so three is enough.

"Hello, my love. I made you breakfast." Mina put her arms around my waist from behind.

"But I already ate when I woke up."

She began to blush at the thought of my face between her legs this morning. I enjoyed waking her up that way.

"You're so naughty...I'll leave your food on the counter." She stood on the tips of her toes, giving me a soft kiss.

She walked away and I smiled at her still being shy about the sex we had together, which I knew she thoroughly enjoyed.

Ok, Dev.....I need some ideas for boy names. Tangela is due any day and I wanted to be prepared for when the baby comes.

I still can't believe she let you touch her.

Being a hater doesn't look good on you, Dev.

I laughed...Me and Ollie have come a long way...he has never left my side. Through all the craziness, death, trauma and bullshit, I could always count on him.

Well since I'm his Godfather...how about Devin?

You're joking, right?

No, I actually wasn't...but I have things to do, Ollie. I'm sure you will think of something.

I walked through the tall double doors where a few dozen creatures stood before me. One more grotesque than the other, I sent them onto their assignments of bringing fear into the hearts and minds of the young. It feeds the demon realm and keeps the evil beasts that roam here satisfied.

Human souls in purgatory became my normal judgment...many were easily mine and were of all ages. On a few rare occasions some humans were worthy of heaven, but many didn't even need my ruling....they went straight to hell.

I heard a loud shriek outside the walls...walking onto my balcony, outside an army of deformed creatures stood outside in rage. Once my presence was noticed, hundreds of arrows lit with fire flew in my direction.

"Oh, another battle?"

My invisible shield covered my body as the ground beneath them seeped with hot lava. Screams of agony took over the air as their bodies went under like quick sand.

"This is the third time this month."

I walked through the portal to my penthouse.

"Daddy, we heard you're getting married...say it ain't so."

The ladies joked as we celebrated another successful month at Begonia. Over the years, many of these women were given proposals and offered a life of luxury by different clients but they still stayed.

"No, I am not, but I was told you turned down a marriage proposal recently."

Dana shrugged her shoulders. "I'm not ready for marriage."

"You can't do this forever, sweetheart."

"I know, but I'm damn sure gonna try. Unless you wanna take me off the market."

They all laughed and I smiled. The Begonia Beauties have really become close with each other, which was great.

My clock on the wall read 3:33am, the usual time when I was called to purgatory. When I walked through the church-like building a dozen people stood before me. The youngest there was fourteen.

Suddenly my appearance began to change. My black wings spread six feet on each side while my claws and fangs made their appearance. My skin resembled a serpent and my eyes were pitch black. The people ducked in fear as I walked through them to take my seat of judgment.

"Excuse me, Sir. Who...who are you?" The fourteen year old asked.

I sat down on my throne as the portal to hell opened wide on the church floor.

"The Demon King."

Blistering flames ignited from the portal and I began to smile as all of them screamed in despair.
