I had no sympathy for people who believed it to be okay to burn their sisters in fires, despite their pleas for help. Innocent or not if they were claimed to be a witch or demon they would not be spared so why did a demon have to spare a human? Swiftly I walked past the weeping child... Guilt would get the better of me, soundlessly I'd hold out my hand for the child to take hold, her small fingers curling tightly around my own as if she was afraid that I’d change my mind and leave her behind. 

I wasn’t that cruel. 
I just didn’t have the heart to care.

This story is about a demon who at first saves a small child, after the childs death he starts to rebel against the demon council, soon becoming the only thing standing between a horde of evil that wishes to dominate the human world. What will happen to a demon that once claimed to have no heart. Read to find out more...All Rights Reserved
