Historical
This story follows the enigmatic Kamilah Mason, a mysterious figure who frequents the Museum of Natural History, drawn inexorably to the Ancient Egyptian exhibit. Every day, she sits in silent contemplation before the sarcophagus of King Khufu, her presence unnoticed by most, yet known by the museum staff, including the affable young manager, Louis Ingard. However, her quiet existence is disrupted when Peter Jefferson, an archaeologist and former colleague of Louis, arrives with an enticing proposition: an expedition to Egypt to explore a newly discovered pyramid. Louis, wanting to leave his adventuring days behind him, initially declines, but when the museum's favourite patron attracts the attention of this wayward guest. Louis has no choice but to agree with one condition. *** "You are my Queen," he states ardently as he grips my bare shoulders tightly. "Please for once in our marriage, listen and follow my instructions." My head shakes in refusal, tears tracing silent paths down my cheeks, my lips quivering as I meet his gaze. "I can't," I manage between sobs, my breaths ragged with emotion. "I can't bear to lose you again."

She, an innocent 18 year old angel, accidentally stumbled into the mating ceremony of the Demon King of Hell. She took the only empty seat in the room. The crowd whispered and eyed her with shock. "Why is everyone staring at me?" She asked innocently, looking up at the towering large man in front of her, a man three times her size. "Because you're sitting in the Demon King's Throne." He said, his deep commanding voice sending shivers down her spine. "The one who would kill anyone he wants." He said, teasing her. Panicked, she jumped up to apologize, but he yanked her back, pulling her onto his lap. A jolt of electricity surged through her at the contact, something as she never felt before. "Let me go..." She stammered, her ears burning red as she struggled. "The King will kill you for this." He said to her. A low rumbling laugh vibrated through her, making her weak. His iron grip tightened around her waist. "Little one," He said, his voice dark and amused. "I am the Demon King and as my fated mate, you'll never have to apologize to me."
