Stupid love

7.

She was walking towards the throne room when she saw Frost and Flake coming her way. She waved at them with a warm smile.
" Good morning Sensei." They said in a union.
"Good morning." She said. She realized that they both look a little worried as if, they want to ask her something.
" Why are you both looking worried." She said.
" We want to ask you something." Said Flake, shyly.
" Okay! What is it? " She said confused.
" Why are you so kind to us. Demons aren't kind and friendly. " Said Frost.
_Oh damn! ....Thomas told me not to be kind and polite with Demon's or else they would know my real identity. How can I forget such important rule..._ She thought.
" Well!.... I'm just different from others." She said. For a little while there was silence.
" We're happy that we met you.... Your kind and nice just like Sir, Thomas." Said Flake.
" Sir, Thomas! ...... Did you just said Thomas. How do you know him." She said surprised.
" There is nothing surprising in that. Everyone in the mansion knows him... He has the highest rank among demons and he is the only person Demon King trust in this mansion." Said Frost.
_Why does everyone keep reminding me of his importance in this mansion..... But.... That idiot being kind, is something unimaginable. He was the one who told me not to be kind and nice to demons._ She thought.
" Well! I know Thomas and I don't like him, at all." She said.
" Why!" They said, shocked. " Why don't you like him?"
" Stop asking me, questions....." She said angrily.
" But Sensei!.... " Said Flake. They both were really worried. They want her to be friends with Thomas. But she don't want to be any near him.
" Well! I might be going now." She said and walked passed them.
She reached near the throne room. Standing outside, her one hand on the door handle. She was thinking how Demon King would react when he would see her. Although, the fact that he is an emotionless statue, she was still excited. She took a deep breath and opened the door. But to her disappoinment, throne room was empty. She looked around and saw, Alex sitting on the side couch with doing some important paper work.There was a bundle of papers on this front table. He seemed really busy.
_Why are these demons always busy. I hate it, when Demon King don't have time for me._ She thought. She walked towards Alex, but he didn't realize her presence. He was still busy with his paper work.
" Hi, Alex!" She said. Alex looked at her.
"Oh! I didn't saw you come in. " He said, surprised.
" Yes.... It seems like, your really busy. "
" Yes I am.... Can I ask? Why your here? "
" I was here for Demon King. " She said.
" Demon King,..... he might be at the library. " He said after thinking.
" Oh! Is that so... Can you tell me where is the library. "
" I'm sorry! .... But I can't." He said, smiling.
" Why? " She asked.
" Listen?.... I can't tell you because, no one is allowed to go in the library room. Demon King had forbade all demons. And also only few Demon's are known about where the library is? "
" So,... Do you know, where the library is."
" Yes I do. "
" Then, tell me." She insisted.
" I can't... I told you." He said, polite. She decided not to insist him. Since she doesn't want him to get in trouble because of her.
" Fine! I won't insist..... But, can I ask you something else?" She said.
" What? "
" Why are you so kind with me? Even though, you know I'm a human." She asked, curious.
" Because, Demon King brought you here. If he's fine with having you. Then, who am I to go against his decision. I accepted you as one of us." He said.
_I don't trust, a single word he said.... After all, he was the one who killed Nico's entire village. I'm sure he had something in his mind that he's not telling me._ she thought.
" What's your Rank among other Demons." She asked. " I'm sure you belong to a high rank just like Thomas. "
" Who told you about Demon Rank." He asked.
" Thomas! " She said with a smile.
" Of course!...." He said as if he were disappointed." Well! I'm, third among Demon Rank. "
" Oh! .... That means you have, high power. " She said not surprised. " Thomas might be at the first." She said.
" Yes.... He is." He said. She was unhappy to hear that.
" Okay! I might be going now. Thanks for your time." She said and left. As she went outside the throne room, She started thinking, who else might know about the library. But she can only think of Thomas, who would never help her in finding Demon King. _At least, I can try. Maybe he will tell me._ She thought and decided to find Thomas. But the problem was, she has no idea where to find him. She went downstairs and started looking for Thomas. Then suddenly, she heard a noise. It was her stomach, she was hungry.
_Maybe, I should eat something before finding that idiot._ she thought and started walking towards the kitchen.
When she reached the kitchen door, she was surprised to find Thomas standing in the kitchen with Erin. They both were talking about something. But she couldn't hear them. Thomas saw her and she smiled. He seemed unhappy, to see her smile at him.
_What is that idiot doing in the kitchen?_ she thought, curious.
" Hi! Thomas." She said. She barely manage to not say him idiot. But Thomas ignored her and walked pass her. She turned, facing his back, as walked out of the kitchen.
" Erin, bring my breakfast to my room." She ordered, and ran after Thomas.
" STOP! " She shouted. Thomas turned to find her coming his way.
" What do you want?" He said rudely.
" Can you-"
" No! " He said before she can even finish.
" At least! listen to me, first. " She said, angrily.
" Okay! tell me, what is it?" He said, rudely.
" Where is the library? " She said. This time she was serious.
" What!.... Why are you asking? "
" I'm finding, Demon King. And Alex told me he is in the library." She said.
" I'm not telling you anything." He said and turned to leave.
" Such a waste of time. Why did I even bother asking him. " She said to herself.
" IDIOT!" She shouted in anger. Thomas heard her call him idiot. He was furious, but he decided to ignore her and didn't stop to look back. _I really want to kill that idiot._ she thought.
She went inside her room and started waiting for her breakfast. After a little while Erin came inside with her breakfast, she also had a basket of apple with her which she placed on the table. She usually bring a basket of fruits for her. Which she eats during day time, whenever she feels hungry. After arranging her breakfast on the table. Erin stood across the table, incase she need something.
" Eat it! " She said.
" What!" Asked Erin.
" Eat an apple."
" But they are for you." Said Erin, worried.
" Do, as I say. " She said gravely.
" Y... Yes. " Said Erin and picked one apple. Her hands were shivering as she bring the apple near her mouth.
" Eat it already! " She said. Erin looked at her and gulped.
" Yes..." She said and closed her eyes, tight.
She took a bite, and with in minutes. Her skin had stains of purple. Her veins appeared over her skin, and covering her face. She looked horrifying. She was breathing heavily. Her eyes started bleeding. Her blood tears were falling down on the carpet. Erin fell on her knees with a painful scream. Seeing Erin suffer, she didn't do anything, niether she was surprised as if she knew the apples were poisoned.
_Why do I feel.... So happy, to see Erin suffer. I should feel sarrow or be horrified by this sight, but instead I feel a strange happiness in me. I can barely control my laughter..... Why do I enjoy her suffering. Why is it so intertaining for me..... I think I have an evil spirit in me._ She thought.
She was smiling, and deep inside she was laughing and enjoying everything. She saw Erin reach towards her dress pocket, and bring out a little glass bottle which contained a strange red liquid. Erin drank the liquid. She was turning normal. Her skin turned normal and her eyes stopped bleeding. She was breathing normal now.
" I knew the apples were poisoned." She said looking at her.
" But.... How?..." Asked Erin. Still breathing from her mouth.
" The moment I saw you with Thomas..... I knew, I can't trust you anymore." She said, smirking.
" I'm sorry... I'm... so sorry!..... Please! forgive me. " Said Erin begging and crying for forgiveness. She was guilty for betraying her.
" Well! I don't Freaking Care about your sorry." She said, smiling. She wasn't her old-self anymore. It was like some evil spirit took over her and she was no longer the innocent girl she used to be. She looked evil. Even Erin was surprised by her change. Surprised and horrified.
" Tell me, which type of poison have you used.... It seemed really deadly. I want that poison for myself. " She said glaring at her.
" It's... it's Demon poison." She looking down at the carpet.
" Demon poison.... What does that mean?"
" Your known well that every demon has different magic powers. Some demons have Poison power. There blood is poisoned and can kill other demons or human with just the scent of there blood. They are the most dangerous types of Demons."
" Ah!.... It would might have taken less than a minute for me to die by that poison!.... " She said.
" I'm really sorry!.... Forgive me! " Said Erin and started crying again.
" Stop crying, idiot..... And listen to me carefully. From now on, you are going to work for me. And not for that idiot, Thomas...... He is going die soon. So, it's better if you start following my orders instead of his."
" What do you mean...." Said Erin, confused.
" I have a work for you.... And you have to do, as I say or else I won't hesitate to kill you." She said and she looked damn serious. Erin was scared, badly.
" What do you want me to do?" Asked Erin. Looking worried.
" I'm going to tell Demon King, everything. And you have to witness it. You are going to tell Demon King that Thomas told you to kill me by, Demon poison..... And than I will add some spice to make sure he kills Thomas." She said, giggling.
" I... I... "
" Don't worry.... I will make sure Demon King doesn't kills you..... But, if you tried to betray me again.... I'm sure I will kill you." She said glaring at her.
" I would do as you say..... Please! Just spare my life." Said Erin, begging. She smiled.
" Come on! Stand up now." She said to Erin.
After a little while they both went outside the room and started walking towards the throne room. She entered they throne room and luckily she found Demon King sitting in his throne along with Thomas by his side. She smiled and motioned Erin to come in. Seeing Erin along with her. Thomas got worried.
_What is she up to?_ thought Thomas.
" Your Highness! I have come to tell you something very important. Something related to Thomas, if I say. " She said while bowing respectful Infront of the Demon King. The Demon King was silently looking at her. She stood straight up and glared at Thomas.
" Thomas tried to kill me with Demon poison." She said.
" Do you have proof." Said the Demon King.
" Yes, indeed I have.... Erin!" She said and looked at Erin.
" Your highness,..... Sir Thomas ordered me to give poison apples to her. He told me that he want to kill her. " Said Erin looking down.
" What nonsense! " Said the Demon King and stood up from his thrown. He looked at Thomas angrily.
" Erin, leave!" Said Thomas and Erin left immediately.
" So you did tried to kill her." Said Demon King glaring at Thomas. Thomas was scared and worried.
" Are you going to kill him?" She said from behind them. She was smiling happily.
" Absolutely not!.... I'm not going to kill him." Said the Demon King.
" But... Why not? " She said.
" Your not dead, are you.... So, there is no need to kill him. " Said the Demon King. " But he would be punished. "
" I wish you kill him. " She said.
" Why do you want him dead. "
" I just really hate him." She said, smiling.
" He won't try to kill you again..... You can leave now." Said the Demon King. She was shocked that he spared his life, again. She left the throne room angrily.
" Thomas.... I think you heard me, well.... Stay away from her or else, I will kill you." Said the Demon King glaring at him.
" Y-Yes, your highness." Said Thomas looking downcast.
SHE was going downstairs thinking about why Demon King spared his life. She was not angry. Because she had a lot of plans to trick Thomas into her traps so that Demon King kills him. She don't really want Thomas to die. But since Thomas want to mess with her. So she wasn't going to stay silent and do nothing. While she was thinking about how to trap Thomas. She suddenly, thought of the library room.
_I must find someone who can tell me where to find the library...... Maybe, Frost and Flake can help me._ She thought.
At Night, She entered her room and saw Demon King standing Infront of the, room mirror. He just had a bath and now, he was combing his white long hairs.
_Oh damn! He is looking so hot.... hot, hot ,hot..... His white Royal King, dress. His demon deadly red eyes. And his lovely white hairs. He seemed like a whole package....... I think I'm going to die. Why are you so hot, my future husband._ she thought and blushed.
" Why are you staring at me like that?" Asked the Demon King.
" What!.... It's nothing. " She said looking at the opposite direction.
" You were staring at me right now, and smiling. "
" Well!... I... I was just thinking about something. " She said. Her cheeks turned even more red.
" Can I ask what were you thinking? "
" I... Umm... I was thinking about a name. That..... What will I call you when your my husband? Every wife call her husband with different sweet names. And I wish the same." She said. She knew she was lying. But she can't understand herself why she lied.
" Which type of names?" Asked the Demon King.
" Like..... Sweetie pie, Sugar cube, My love, Sweet heart, or maybe I will call you Love" She said all the names she can think of to call Demon King after they are married. She was so happy with the thought of him being his husband, that she spin in joy and went really close to Demon King. She looked in his eyes and blushed. _Oh My!_ she thought. She realized that Demon King cheeks has turned as red as her. They both kept looking at each others eyes for a long while.
" So, you still wish to marry me." Said the Demon King.
_Why do he ask me the same question. I think he really like hearing yes from me._
" What would you do if I say no." She said. She was looking into Demon King's eyes and for once she thought she saw worriness in his eyes. Then a smile appeared on her lips.
" I want to marry you Demon King because I Love You." She said softly. Demon King blushed and she giggled. He felt a strange happiness inside him. He found himself admiring her. Her lovely smile increased his heart beat. He wish she always smile like that. He wish she always stay by her side. He wish to see her smile and happy. He wished that the time would stop and he just kept looking at her. She stopped laughing and looked at Demon King with a warm smile.
" I think we might sleep now." Said the Demon King looking in the other direction.
" Okay." She said.
" Turn of they lights." He said and turned to went towards his bed.
" As you say, My Love." She said, smirking. He stopped and didn't respond. He was silent.
_He didn't mind, I called him My love._ she thought.
" You didn't mind, that I called you My Love." She said.
" Stop saying that. " Said the Demon King. He wasn't angry. His voice was soft and polite.
" Okay..... As you wish." She said and went to turn off the lights. Then, she went to her couch and fall asleep. While Demon King was lying on his bed. He couldn't sleep.
_Am I falling for her..... Why do I feel so happy when she's around me...... Why do I wish her to be by my side all the time.... Why does her lovely red eyes always appears Infront me. Why can't I stop thinking about her?...... What's going on with me?_ Thought the Demon King and closed his eyes.
