Chapter 3

Rohan's POV

They arrived earlier than expected. Much earlier. The winds and sea had been merciful to them, allowing quick sailing. I stood behind King Qin and Prince Pyrus. Princess Shyrah was standing beside them as well, back tense. Her dark hair was in a braid, her sinful legs hugged by leather pants, a cropped long sleeve black top revealing her hip and belly button piercings, and attitude coming off of her in waves. 

I watched as the three greeted the lords, her fathers introducing her with the title of Princess. Then comes Andre Lemire with that suffocating swagger and cocky attitude of his. The Goddess was cruel pairing the princess with filth like him. Then again, the goddess paired them at the moment of birth, unable to see who they would grow to become. So it wasn't entirely the Goddess' fault. Just like Margie had been a sweet child, until she was influenced by her mother's greediness and then became my worst enemy. 

I watched Andre eye the Princess as her fathers spoke to his father. He was the scum of the Earth and deserved to be punish. Then Margie left the ship and Pyrus became tense. He shot me a look over his shoulder, but I stayed emotionless. He and Qin greeted her, but I noticed Shyrah only looked the woman over, nothing more. Margie clearly looked offended, but didn't say anything in front of King Qin and Prince Pyrus. After all the passengers left the ship, Shyrah walked away quickly, trying to put distance between her and Andre. It was only a matter of time before he stuck his dick in someone. Knowing my luck, it'd be Margie. 

Pyrus looked at me, "What do you want to do?" "That's something I need to speak with the two of you about," I told them. "I know I'm already not going to like this," Qin muttered. "Let's talk in our tent." 

I followed after them and went into their tent. I sat casually. "It's about Shyrah isn't it," Pyrus asked me. I nodded, "I'm sworn to not reveal who, but he mate is on the island." They both tensed. "So is Margie," Pyrus said as he ran a hand through his hair. "Shyrah and I have been discussing a deal the last few days, and unfortunately, our hell has arrived on the island much earlier than expected before we came to an agreed decision." "And that deal is," Qin asked, clearly unhappy, but I think he was more unhappy with the fact at any moment Shyrah could be in immense pain. "That she and I mate to save each other," I told them. "And no, it would be more than just using each other. The day after I came to her with the proposal, she came back with a counter, asking about the future and what I want from it. She wants a family and happiness. I'm a fucking bastard, but because she is even thinking about doing this, I'm gonna try. I just want to find a place and settle. Somewhere I can finally call home and not move because my mate is within distance of hurting me. Which is why I'm here, asking for permission to mate with your daughter." 

"If only you had come to us first with this insane plan of yours," Qin said coldly. Pyrus shot us a glare, "They could have just gone through with it and told us afterwards." They then became silent and I could tell by their eyes they were mind linking with their mates. Alice suddenly appeared. "They're not happy I came alone," she said to Qin and Pyrus. She then looked at me, "If you hurt our daughter, I will not hesitate to give you a painful death." Her purple and green eyes then changed to red, and I got the message loud and clear. I nodded, "Yes ma'am." She then smiled in approval, before turning to face Qin. "Be nice," she said to him. "Yes love," he said before pulling her to him for a kiss. That was my cue to leave. 

I found Shyrah in her tent reading. "I spoke with your parents," I said to her. "About what," she asked while raising an eyebrow. "For permission. I thought about what you said about a future. I just want to finally have a place I can call home without constantly moving to get away from that bitch. I know you want a family, and to find happiness and because you're even considering to do this, then I will give you that." "And what did my parents say," she asked me a little hesitantly. 

"You're mother Alice appeared to threaten me," I told her. She nodded, "Sounds like mom." I then felt the familiar burning in my chest. "Fuck," I whispered. The burning began to increase and I dropped to a knee, panting. Hands cupped my face, "We'll mate after discussing this further. For now, let me help you." She then kissed me and I didn't hesitate to return it, pushing through the pain in my chest. We removed our clothes quickly before settling between her legs. I pushed into her, her lips on mine. When I felt her hymen break, I was shocked. This woman gave me her virginity to save me from the pain Margie was putting me through. I pushed those thoughts away to think on later, and gave her my full attention and ensuring I pleasured every bit of her. 

After wards, we laid there, panting. "You were a virgin," I whispered. "Yeah I know," she said. "I should've known," I told her. "Why," she asked me. "Because it's a big deal," I answered. "Had I known you were a virgin, I would have fucking made sure it was better than just taking you in this tiny ass tent on this shitty pallet. You deserved better than that." "I'm not all about that sentimental shit," she told me. "Besides many demons loose their virginity a lot younger than I did. I'm nineteen, almost twenty. Most loose it at the age of sixteen." "Why do young," I asked her. "Because virginity stands for purity. You aren't considered a full demon until you've have that purity broken. You think I'm gonna be upset I lost my virginity in a tent? There isn't a such thing as modesty in the Demonic Realm. Last time I snuck in for some magic stuff for my sister, I saw a guy just fuck his mate against a light post because another man was checking her out. Others didn't care because that shit is common. To me, this was perfect. Besides you didn't know and I made the choice to give it to you. So don't beat yourself up over it," she explained to me. "Besides if we mated, we'll be doing it in a tent as well, so get used to it."  

I watched as she yawned, before resting her head on my chest. "It's okay Rohan," she said softly before falling asleep. I sighed and looked down at the woman who would soon be my mate. I was the biggest ass on the planet, and she will be the only one I will not be an ass too. I prayed to the Goddess this didn't come to bite us in the ass later on.
