This Shop is Protected by the Demon King

Created from a short story I originally wrote on Reddit's r/writingprompts this is a short slice-of-life novella about a reborn demon king and his new family. The story features themes of healing, supportive family, personal growth, and forgiveness.

Summary: I, King Asmodeus the Undying, have died. Killed by a human hero with a magic sword, I died on the cold floor of my palace. As my consciousness faded, I realized how truly alone I was in this world. To my surprise, I was reborn, not as a demon but as a dog.

Born to a new family, I expected to be rejected for my differences but my siblings and mother welcomed me. In this life, I will protect what is most precious to me my home and my family.
