"Lucian?" He was woken by the timid voice calling his name from the doorway.  He instinctively reached out for Olivia but his hands only met air. He was immediately in a bad mood, turning in the direction of the voice

" What?" he boomed

"My lord, I'm sorry to disturb you but we must meet with the human leaders, they await us, " Rila said from the doorway. Rila was one of the messengers in his castle, he was a flighty little thing, constantly on edge and afraid. Lucian felt a bit of remorse for yelling at him. If it had been anyone else he wouldn't have given it a second thought, but he also knew his tārā had a soft spot for him and for Olivia, he would do anything.

He paused for a moment before asking

"Is- Is Olivia present?", he looked away as he asked this, clasping his hand behind his head, using the time to observe the chandeliers on the ceilings that had suddenly become very interesting

"Yes my Lord" Rila whispered. His relationship with Olivia was a secret at her request and Rila knew to be quiet about it but if Lucian had his way both of their worlds would know she was his and his alone.

In a matter of minutes, he was ready for his meeting at the grand hall.  If it were any other meeting, to be held at any other place, without his Olivia present, he would ignore it. He would do anything but go. He was the demon king, he could do as he pleased, but every opportunity to see his tara was like he had been a drowning man who finally found air.

When Lucian walked into the grand hall everyone stilled, you could feel the tension in the air. She watched him knowing his eyes would find her in a matter of seconds. She had begged him to keep them a secret, which was the last thing her demon king wanted but Lucian was a man of his word or a demon of his word.

When his eyes found hers it was electric, she had to remind herself to breathe. He was beautiful and he took her breath away. He towered over everyone in the grand hall. He was so very huge that each time she saw him, she was shocked by his size. His curly hair was a beautiful mass that ended at his shoulders and stray strands, sleek and wet, touched his temples. Her hands ached to sweep them back. His fiery eyes watched her with so much intensity that it scared her. Her eyes pleaded with him to look away even though she never wanted his eyes or his hands away from her.

Slowly he looked away from her and his eyes were filled with disdain as he watched the humans in the grand hall. His eyes which had been gentle and loving, a second ago were now fiery and angry

"You test my patience humans" His voice boomed and he sat on the massive throne at the head of the table.

"You come here you, make your silly demands each time and I let you. I let you do as you wish in your realm, yet you push your limits into where is mine. Will you ever be satisfied?" The leaders of his clan nodded in agreement. They were wickedly handsome and clothed in pure luxury.

Even as the meeting proceeded, Olivia found herself zoning out as she watched Lucian, she was transported to a different place and time; to the first time she had met this wickedly handsome creature.

The human clans had been fighting within themselves again, so Father had paid less attention to her and she could take her beloved walks through the woods that she loved so much.
