A Demon Lord’S Obsession novel Chapter 5

-Demon Kings castle dungeon-

As Leon looked at the girl tembling in the darkness he asked, with a kind and gentle voice,

" Are you alright?"

But there was no answer. Leon was concerned, he didn't know what to do in this situation.

If he just told the guards, then the poor girl might get hurt even more.

He then slowly reached out and touched her shoulder, she flinched, he took it back.

"I'm not going to hurt you. I promise."

Leon was worried now, he felt sorry for her and just wanted to get her out of this horrible place.

"What's your name? I'm Leon."

He then, after not hearing a response, tried to ask it again.

"What's yo........"

He stopped speaking once he heard a sweet, shy voice say,

"Luna."

Leon had an astanished look on his face as he heard her name.

"Well .. Luna, is it alright if you come out. As I said before, I won't hurt you."

Luna shook her head in silence.

Then Leon got a little frustrated.

"Fine then."

The guard that had waited at the entrance, then looked at Leon, then he noticed the girl his his grasp.

"Oh, so you found one, those slaves are so crafty sometimes. Should I have this one beaten, so she could learn not to hide."

Once Leon heard that, he had a very displeased look on his face and started to hold Luna tighter. It was as if Leon didn't want anyone in the world to even touch her.

"No, it's quite alright, she doesn't need to be treated any worse than she already has. Can you just show me the way to my room."

"Of course my lord. Please follow me."

Then the guard turned and headed up the stairs and Leon, holding Luna, followed.
