♱ •⋅ 1750 B.C. ⋅• ♱The third territory was synonymous with different. Although the sky was still the same and the people still walked the streets with the black sun making the day darker - everything was different.There weren't as many smiles on their faces and even for a world that had been ravaged by demons, that place was too dark."What happened here?" I muttered "I heard that..."Asmodeus held my shoulder."That it was beautiful here?"I nodded.Even when Elaine went to the third territory, it was different. The place was alive with all Lucifer's affection.The third territory was the refuge of many mortals who still cherished what was once an ordinary life. It was a beautiful place.Undeniably beautiful."How?" I questioned and the blond demon next to me shrugged."Maybe it's because Lucifer doesn't wake up yet" he said and his words took me by surprise."How? Lucifer hasn't... woken up?" my lips didn't even seem to want to move. Asmodeus was lying, right? He had to be lying.

♱ •⋅ 1750 B.C. ⋅• ♱A part of Asmodeus seemed unable to believe what he had just heard, but another part seemed happy to see me finally changing my way of thinking.It was as if he was trying to decide if he wanted me as someone who needed protection, who sometimes seemed happy, and someone who clearly didn't know what love meant, but finally had individuality."Asmodeus" I called out to him snapping him out of his trance "I'll be fine, even if I'm not with him."Those words didn't seem real, not least because a part of me - whether it was the reading part or a fragment of what Asra felt for Callisto -, still wanted to be by the king's side."You..." he stopped "if you say so."He muttered as if he was trying to convince himself, as if he believed my words, even though they seemed surreal, and I knew they did.Callisto had been my addiction, my obsession. Whether it was as who I was before or as Asra.I could still remember all the times I had protected him in fan forums, in social me

♱ •⋅ 1750 B.C. ⋅• ♱ •⋅ Calisto ⋅• ♱Loren moved around inside the carriage, looking much more excited than usual."We really are out here!" he said with a huge smile and I couldn't help but laugh.My sweet son was really surprised. It wasn't really something to be surprised about, after all... Loren had never left that place. He had never set foot outside the walls that protected the capital.He was not even allowed to go out in the small village."Yes...we are" I spoke again extending one of my hands to support him. To make sure he didn't fall off the bench straight to the ground "but try to sit up, son...you might end up hurt."Like a good child, he just ignored me and continued to kneel on the bench with both hands on the carriage glass.I knew it was crazy and a part of me seriously wondered what sanity I had left.Had I really done all that to make sure Asra was okay? Or was the truth that I was jealous?I huffed.It couldn't be that. It was Asmodeus, even if he was the prince of

♱ •⋅ 1750 B.C. ⋅• ♱Somehow, Asmodeus and I managed to get to the palace in the third territory before Callisto. My eyes were still fixed on the blond man's wings that looked more like dragon wings."What is it?" he asked me with a raised eyebrow."Nothing" I spoke sketching a small smile "I'm just thinking that your wings are pretty."He smiled, a debauched smile."I know they are. I am an albino dragon after all."He was right, that ironically made a lot of difference.Dragons were rare, but albino dragons were like one in a million. A divine answer, like a blessing given by ancient beings, and Asmodeus was the last albino dragon known to exist at the present time."Right, right..." I grumbled "but we still need to get down."I had barely finished speaking and someone knocked on the door. Once and then twice."Miss?" A familiar voice called out to me and I grunted as Asmodeus snapped his fingers and undid the spell that existed over us."Yes?" I replied pulling on one of my sweaters

♱ •⋅ 1750 B.C. ⋅• ♱Callisto was difficult to deal with, but he wasn't like Asra or Elaine used to describe him, he was just like a child who wasn't sure what he wanted or didn't want.He was probably a lot more childish than Loren and if that was true it wouldn't surprise me one bit."What should I do, then?" I questioned with a raised eyebrow "stay in my room and do nothing?"He opened his mouth, but then closed it.He knew I was right.If it were up to him, that would be all I could do."Not that... I..." he sighed and leaned back against the wall, "I just don't want you to get hurt.That pissed me off."I'm not made of porcelain, Callisto" I growled and without noticing my eyes became bright, expanding my powers. For a moment it looked as if he was surprised."Sorry" I heard him murmur softly "if you really want to do something to help Lucifer..."I denied with my head."I don't want to help, I want to give back. I vaguely remember waking up while you were injured" I had to admit

♱ •⋅ 1750 B.C. ⋅• ♱ •⋅ Calisto ⋅• ♱Asra’s words caught me by surprise. It was like a stab in my chest and a straight dart in my pride.It was my fault, I knew it. It was my fault that Asra had to go through everything, that she had to listen to things like that when in the end she was attending to one of my many whims.I still remembered when Asra asked me if that was really what I wanted. Asra was always much more than a simple concubine, she always would be.I sighed."Majesty?" one of the guards hurried to call me."Say it" I muttered with one hand on my face."Ahm..." he stopped "the commander said he had found clues to the crimes the duchess came to try to solve. He told me to... not give it to her, but..."I took a deep breath."Speak.""Prince Asmodeus said he would gouge out my eyes and force me to eat if I did not tell the lady about what I had found."I snitched.Who did he think he was to threaten my men? But... I really had the right to be angry? Asmodeus was doing more f

♱ •⋅ 1750 B.C. ⋅• ♱When I realized I was walking towards the lounge to have dinner with Calisto, even if that conversation had not been exactly what I wanted, it had still been good and there was no reason to lock myself in my room and eat alone.It would be childish and in a way, it would also be stupid."Are you sure about that?" I heard Asmodeus say as I passed in front of his room in the hallway leading me to dinner, so he smiles."Of what?" I couldn’t help but question and the demon raised one of his eyebrows as if trying to understand if I was dumb or naive."Are you sure you want to be around him? You can always find a good excuse and you know... stay away?"It was a valid option, I realized, but I didn’t really want that, so I just briefly denied it while turning my back on it."I want to be treated like an adult woman, Asmodeus," I said simply as I stared him over the shoulder "I won’t get that if I lock myself in my room because I don’t like what I’m told or what they think

♱ •⋅ 3690 I.C ⋅• ♱There was once an ancient king who fell in love with a being completely opposite to him and as the romance between them developed, a curious phoenix watched them."What a fool" she once said as she snuggled into her nest "isn’t it obvious they won’t be able to be together? Look at them... they’re too different, they’re natural enemies."The mermaid, who has always been by the side of the phoenix since the day she was born, smiled. A weak, friendly smile."If you think they’re so silly, why do you keep watching? Isn’t this the 16th time you’ve been here? Looking at them? What? Fell in love with her? Or maybe for him?" The mermaid provoked "no... did... fall in love with both?"The phoenix has snitched."What the hell are you talking about? I’m a phoenix! I don’t fall in love unless I want to! And everyone knows that love is something questionable and made only for mortals to think that there is something beyond the basic motif of reproduction"the proud phoenix grumbl
