Princess of the Demon Realm

Part 1

Chapter 1.

Conor had his eyes focused on the screen in front of him. All the pictures and colours floating around inside making his mind go crazy. He lent back on the couch trying to concentrate, but a wonderful smell filled the air, and with his magnificent hearing and smelling he knew she had approached the room and came up behind him. Her arms wrapped softly around his neck and he could feel her warm breath against his neck which caused shivers going through his whole body.

"Hello cutie."
"Good morning, my love." She said with her sweet and loving voice.

He couldn't resist this girl, she was just too perfect. Her perfect silky honey coloured hair wrapped around in a beautiful bow and hung down her left shoulder. And her wonderful, clear crystal blue eyes watched him with a look as sweet as sugar. She was everything he had ever wished for, and she belonged to him. He suddenly pulled his girl on his lap and swallowed the little squeaks she let her by kissing her.

"Conor..." Her face flushed bright red and she looked even cuter.

"Yes Shadow?" Conor smiled. He stroked her neck slowly. "Don't worry. It's not time yet."
"You're parents are here."

Now it was Conor's time to blush. He had forgotten that his parents were coming, and that it was today!

"I'm sorry Shadow, I forgot!" 
She giggled at the panicking look in Conor's face. He was so adorable under stress. Shadow gave him tiny butterfly kisses on his cheek and smiled softly at him. "Drake is in a good mood, I promise."
Conor let his breath out in relief. His father was not the nicest person you could meet. He had a bad temper, especially towards Conor's mother, Connie, and Conor himself. He was a strong build man and his werewolf genes were showing incredible good. Connie on the other hand was a tiny and sweet woman with always a good mood hiding to comfort everyone.
Shadow got up from Conor's lap and brushed some imaginary dust from her dress. "Come on now Conor. We can't let them wait." With that she went back to where she came from and Conor followed silently. He really didn't want to meet his father at this moment, even if he was in a good mood. He knew precisely why his parents had come. Not for a quiet dinner with their son and his mate to be, but to make sure he had done what he was told. Something he had totally forgotten.
Drake and Connie already sat by the dinner table and raised their heads when Shadow and Conor came in. Shadow met Connie's eyes and they smiled. Drake had his eyes on his frowning son. He smiled, stood up and clapped Conor on his shoulder. "This is the day, son. Now you will become a man."
"Yes dad." Conor looked up nervously. His father wouldn't be happy. "But there is this slightest problem..." He hesitated. Drake eyes darkened and he had understood what Conor was going to say without the tiniest hint.
"You haven't told her." Drake's eyes were dark like the flames of Satan.
Connie, who had been talking about daily life with Shadow, finally turned her head towards the boys. She had heard the last Drake had said and now she was worried what he might do to Conor. This was a serious mistake on Conor's side and it only meant trouble. She gently tugged Shadow's shirt, telling her to look at her. Shadow obeyed. "What are they talking about?" She asked.
"I think it will be better if I tell you then you to know it through rage." Connie sighed. "You're going to be Conor's mate. For us werewolves, there are certain things that has to be done." She paused to let Shadow get a moment to collect herself together. "We're not carrying our own children like other demons. Our uterus is getting operated away and we're having our own child carrier. A woman who will carry the baby through the nine months of pregnancy." She stopped. Shadow's eyes were filled with tears. She couldn't believe it, and Conor hadn't told her something this important! She wouldn't be able to have the close relationship with her own babies the nine first months.
"But then the baby won't be mine and Conor's..."
"Yes, it will Shadow." Now Connie smiled again. "The baby will be yours biologic."
Shadow swallowed her tears. This was unbelievable. Even though she didn't believe she would have a baby at the first. She would never feel the happiness every woman found during their pregnancy. It broke her heart and she was devastated inside. This was not like she thought her life with Conor would be.
"Shadow" Conor approached carefully towards her. The left side of his face was swallowing up. Yes, his father had smacked him. But his eyes told her he had already forgotten about his face and all this concentration was lead to Shadow. He embraced her gently. "I know this is hard for you sweetheart."
Shadow couldn't speak up. Everything got stuck in her throat, even her tears
