Chapter 6

Once I went inside of the portal, I was immediately transported to the strange depths of the underworld. I would have used the word terrifying if I was surrounded by violence and chaos but no. Instead, I was surrounded by orgies. I had to cover my ears to save them from all of the moaning and screaming. Everywhere I looked, I'd see some demons going at it like rabbits. They'd wink at me and gesture me to join when they caught me looking but I would only shake my head and divert my eyes.

Gaia and I have already bid our farewell earlier. I even had to push her away from me because she wouldn't stop asking for a kiss. If I kept giving her what she wanted, my brain wouldn't like that and I'd also be late for this meeting. Fortunately, I had some self control so I managed to make it to hell just in time.

Weiss told me the meeting will take place in Lucifer's castle so I better head there. As I began walking, I didn't do anything but look straight ahead of me. There may be types of demons but the ones surrounding me were obviously succubi and incubi. I knew if I interacted long enough with them, they might be able to get into my mind and seduce me. These demons, especially when together, can become really powerful that they can make a person forget about their mate and begin an act of infidelity.

Which.. reminded me of when I was about to enter that human strip club.. thank goodness Gaia showed up when she did.. or else the loneliness and desperation would've swallowed me whole and I might've ended up doing something I'll deeply regret.

When I finally reached Lucifer's castle, two demon guards noticed me and immediately opened the door for me. I thanked them before making my way inside where I saw Pearl and Vaye.

"Hey guys." I called them.

Pearl smiled at me and waved whilst Vaye nodded to acknowledge me. Once I reached them, Pearl asked me, "Hello, Willow, how have you been?" Her voice was still smooth as fuck, I still think Eva's incredibly lucky to have Pearl as her mate. Pearl was just the definition of a perfect lady, she's smart, caring, loyal, and so much more. Oh shit, was it considered cheating if I thought of another girl in this matter? But I've gone past that phase though.. Now, I see Pearl as a genuinely good friend of mine.

"I've been good. How about you guys?"

Vaye shrugged, "Try living with an energetic newborn." As she said this, she pointed towards her arms which were full of scratches and bite marks. "I love her with all of my heart but nothing ever calms Amethyst anymore." She sighed, caressing her arms.

Amethyst was Vaye's mate and was a newborn vampire, turned by hers truly. She's also the future queen of the vampire kingdom and I heard her coronation will happen soon so I can't wait for that. She's another good friend of mine as she'd sometimes accompany me whenever I was alone. We'd play volleyball for hours until I literally collapsed, that's how much energy this girl had, thus I understood Vaye's exhaustion.

I gave Vaye a sympathetic smile, "Don't worry, maybe she'll finally calm down once she's queen."

Vaye groaned, "I can only hope so."

"Speaking of queen, when will Sapphire be crowned?" Pearl asked, looking at me with curious eyes.

I shrugged, "I honestly have no idea. Weiss hasn't talked to me about it, neither has Sapphire." It was true, no one has mentioned it before. I didn't even know if Weiss was actually thinking of making Sapphire the queen. I mean, I'm not against the idea but I just don't think Sapphire is ready yet, she needs more preparation and more knowledge on spells and magic.

"Oh, you guys know Weiss, it might even take decades before she approves Sapphire's coronation." Vaye commented, chuckling.

"Well, I do hope you're wrong, Sapphire has been working hard lately.. I think she'll turn out to be a great ruler." Pearl stated.
