Millennium-Betrayal

Chapter XX3

It was dark and cold.

All she could feel around her was the smell of blood. No. Blood smelled so much more pleasant and delicious. An awful smell that she can't described.

That darn doctor...

She see her body laying there on the bed. Lifeless.

"I'm dead...?" Her mouth slowly murmured those words, as her eyes slowly widened. She can't believe it. In all her life she wanted the death to come for her and take her away but... She can't go like this. No!

"Tragic is it?" A deep voice asked.

The room grew colder and dark once more. That's when she knew she wasn't alone.

"W-Who are you...?" Emily fearfully look around to make sure she wasn't attacked unexpectedly.

"I am a demon. I've been watching very closer about you. You're very interesting to watch, my child." He chuckled lowly, finally stepping out behind of Emily. Having to put his inhumane hands upon her shoulders. "It has seem, you're very selfish for having to die just like that. I believe going to hell is also a price to pay for harming yourself."

A door suddenly opened, hot fire flares and flames came rushing out if the door. It was a door leading down to the bottomless pits of burning hell.

Emily was shaking. She believe that having to harm her own soul that God above gave her is actually a very big sin.

The door then closes.

"Now, now. Don't be so afraid. I am here to help you. You see, I've grown so interested with you. I want to own you."

Emily slowly turned to face the demon, having to take a few steps closer in order to take a closer look. "...Own me...? " At last, when she finally get a good look at him, she did not run or scream. She just stood there.

"Yes. As becoming one of my many wives and serve beneath me."

She averted her eyes away from the demon's black ones. "What do I get...?"

"You can have immortal life. Become a demon. Have ultimate powers. You can have your freedom, play with countless of man and woman which you desire."

Okay, that's scary. The last part is so not her at all. She looked up into his eyes, swore that she can see those trapped souls within those eyes. "...You don't make sense. How can I have my freedom when I become your many wives...? "

"... The great war will happen. And so happens the commander if yours decided to leave you behind because you have one weak body. He's thinking that you will drag the whole team down. " He slowly placed his hand upon her cheeks, having to slowly caressed them gently. "...It's a waste not to use you. You are ... Beautiful."

If only she see herself this way like Miranda and the others did.

Miranda...

"How is she..."

"Take a look." A blue clear orb appeared and it shows them life in the mortal world. It shows... what she desire.

The image showing how Miranda fearlessly fought off Zorin's illusion without hesitation.

Then a sudden slight pain in her chest.

"And all your sickness will end. By the time you had enjoy your time on earth, you may return back to me."

Emily reached out her hand wanting to shake his hand in order to seal the deal, yet the demon grab it gently and place a ring upon her finger. "You are mine."

She woke up in her bed, dressed in her uniform and has her favorite medal.

Black flames appeared out from her hands, she can summon and dispel her horns at will. And the black ring upon her finger that was place by the demon...

"I am the demon's wife..."
