Loving the Hell King

Chapter 23

I woke up the next morning with lots of thought running inside my head. Yesterday after speaking with my mom I realized that I love Troy and I am ready to be with him. But I am still scared of how my life will be at hell. I can't bear the thought of leaving my family and it scares me to bits.

I was still lying on the bed when I heard a knock on the door.

"Come in" I shouted.

I saw Nick entering inside. As soon as I saw him my mood got soured. I know he has come again to convince me about not marrying Troy.

"Look Ee.. I am sorry." He said looking towards me. I just raised my eyebrows at him.

" I know I shouldn't have reacted in that way. I should have respected your wish. I know that you have grown up enough to make your own choice." He said.

" Now only you realized that." I asked him with an annoyed tone. He sat beside me on the bed.

"You are my little sister and I will always be protective about you if you like it or not. There is something about him that I don't like. It's like he is surrounded with something dark. I can't exactly put my fingers on it. But you on the other side is a complete ray of sunshine. You guys can't be compatible. But as I said earlier I will respect your choice." He sighed.

I hugged him after hearning his words.

"Thanks Nick for respecting my choice. I love you." I said him with a smile on my face.

"Still. I don't like him and I can't pretend that I do." He said to me.

"That's fine. I can live with that as long as you are not angry with me." I told him.

Nick left after that. I went downstairs and saw my mom cooking in the kitchen. But what I didn't expect was a six feet demon sitting on the dinning table.

"Alexander. What are you doing here?" I screamed at him.

"Shhh... lower your voice. Your mom is making bacon for breakfast. I love bacons you know." He said with a thousands watt smile.

"That's not my concern. What are you doing in my house?" I asked him with an annoyed tone.

"I was just introducing myself to your mom. She reminds me of my mom." He said sadly.

"Yeah. But what are you doing here?" I asked him again.

"Okay. Troy send me to keep an eye on you. He don't trust that Sammy friend of yours." He raised an eyebrow at me.

"What the hell?" I whisper yelled at him. I am going to murder him. I thought he trusted me. But no, he is to go ahead and prove me wrong.

"Before you go berserk let me tell you it don't relate to being an possessive demon. There is something else wrong with him. You know there were two demons secretly following you yesterday. We can't contact with them anymore. " He looked tensed.

"So, Troy sent me here. He couldn't trust anyone." He said.

"What about your work in hell?" I asked him.

"I have appointed a substitute for the time being. I will be here till the wedding. I have spoken with your mom already. I will be staying in the guest room.. ... Ahhh!! A vacation for me.. finally!!" He yawned raising his hand. I laughed at him. Who will say that this adorable man child infront of me carries out the punishments in hell.

My mom brought the bacon and Alexander gobbled up the food like a dinosaur. Both of us laughed seeing him eating like that.

I decided to go to my school only to submit my resignation letter. I have already informed the Principle and he told that I don't need to follow any standard rules of giving prior notice. I don't know whethere Troy has a hand in that.
Alexander drove me there. I don't know how am I going to bid goodbye to my little munchkins.

After lot of tears and heart warming gifts and cards I left the school.

"Do you want to go anywhere else?" Alexander asked me.

"No." I said.

I was thinking about going for shopping but then I changed my mind. I was way too upset. I am one of those people who doesn't like changes in life. But within the past few weeks my life has been a roller coaster ride. I don't know what is waiting for me but I hope that I don't regret making any decisions this soon.

Alexander was sleeping in the guest room. I heard some shuffling sound inside my room and realized that Troy has come.

When I heard the bed dip I turned towards him and hugged him. I have missed him so much. He nestled his nose near my neck.

"I have missed you too." He started kissing me and showed how much exactly did he miss me.

In between the kisses I heard him say

"Let's get married tomorrow. I can't wait any longer. I want you. I don't know how long I can control myself. I think I am loosing control." He said breathlessly.

"Stop." I tried to shove him off but he kept on biting my neck and I couldn't control and released a moan.

"Troy... stop." I tried.

"No. First promise me that you will marry me tomorrow." He started trailing his mouth down and started to remove the slip of my top.

"Troy.. We can't. Mom needs time to prepare for the wedding. It has always been a dream for her. I can't do that to her." I tried to reason with him.

"Fine. A week. That's what I am giving you. We are getting married within a week. I know a good party planning Company. They will come and meet with your mom tomorrow. And don't argue with me." I can feel his glare in the dark.

"But mom... "

"Alexander will talk to her. She seems to be more reasonable than you." He stated. His words ticked me off.

I turned my back towards him and faced towards the wall.

"What?" He tried to make me face towards him.

"Why do you want to get married to an unreasonable person like me?" I asked him angrily.

He turned me to look at him

"Because I have fallen deeply unconditionally and irrevocably in love with this unreasonable mate of mine." And without anymore words he silenced me with a toe melting kiss.
