Married to the Devil's Son novel Chapter 167

Chapter 167 - 44

Heaven tried to remain calm and not show that she was afraid now that this demon dancing with her knew who she was.

"I am Louis." He introduced himself. Then his gaze fell on her neck.

A shiver went through her, as if she knew what he was thinking.

"I don't see a mark on you." He said. "I don't have a mate and I know you are looking for a husband."

This was getting worse than she thought. Why did this man know so much about her? He was probably an older demon, which did not benefit her in this situation.

"I don't know if you have heard about me, but I am one of the oldest demon lords. Won't it be beneficial to have a powerful male by your side?"

"My father had already chosen someone for me." She lied.

Suddenly he drew her closer to his body, causing her to gasp. "Don't lie to me, young lady. I hate lies."

Heaven tried to push him away, but he refused and held her tightly. He leaned closer.

"I can see why your grandfather fell for a witch." He smirked.

"My grandfather won't like the way you treat me." Heaven threatened.

She wanted to leave this place without a fight.

She didn't want to worry her parents, and especially not Zamiel. Her plan was to return home before midnight and spend the rest of the night with him. If she didn't return, he would suspect that something was wrong. He was already worried about not being able to protect her. She didn't want to make it worse.

"I don't think your grandfather cares about you."

"How would you know?" She asked.

"Your father is still ruling over humans instead of ruling one of the five kingdoms."

Heaven frowned. "What five kingdoms?"

Louis chuckled darkly. "You know nothing. This only shows that your grandfather doesn't need you or care about you."

"You don't know my grandfather." Heaven said. "Now release me."

"Or what?" He challenged, tightening his grip even more.

"Let her go!" Suddenly Zarin gripped his arm.

Louis turned his gaze to Zarin. He didn't seem the least afraid. Instead, he looked around the room as if showing them how many demons would attack him if he made the wrong move.

His threats didn't work on Zarin, who didn't release his arm. "I don't want any problem either, but if you don't release her, I am afraid there will be a problem."

Louis seemed amused. "What will you do, young demon?"

"Zarin, I am fine. We were only dancing." Heaven lied. She didn't want to make things worse.

Zarin knew she was lying, so he didn't listen. Suddenly two demons came to stand behind him. One of them held a dagger in his hand.

Before she could think, a fight break out. Zarin drew his dagger fast when he realized the threat and began to fight the two demons on his own. Heaven knew he would lose. They were older than him.

Quickly she tried to think of a solution when Louis grabbed her chin and turned her face to his.

"Don't worry. They won't kill him. They will just keep him busy until we finish our conversation. So what do you say about having a powerful demon lord by your side instead of weak human?"

While he spoke Heaven remembered the spell she had learned from her grandmother's spell book. How to draw power from nature. Now that Louis was holding her tightly, she decided to try it.

She didn't have high hopes for it to work, but was surprised when she felt a strange energy seep into her body.?It had to be it.

Now!

She pushed him, and he flew across the room before hitting the wall, causing it to break. Heaven was stunned that it worked, but before she could rejoice about her success, other demons came to fight her.

Her first instinct was to teleport back home, but she couldn't leave Zarin behind. Now only the choice of fighting was left.

Heart pounding, she dodged each blow that came her way from the two male demons that were attacking her. Her training became handy and she could detect their movement and easily avoid their attacks. But they were fast and didn't give her a chance to hit back.

Heaven wasn't very good at fighting without weapons, and her dress was restricting her. While distracted with how to fight with the dress one of the demons managed to kick her in the stomach causing her to fall back on a table. She groaned in pain when broken glasses cut her skin.

Before she could recover, the other one grabbed her by the hair, but before he could do anything else Heaven grabbed a plate and broke it on his head. Then she stabbed him with a piece of glass in the neck. The other one hurried to help his friend, but Heaven quickly jumped on the table, turning around she kicked him in the face.

From a distance she could see that Louis was amused by all of it. He was sitting and watching while his men attacked her. From the corner of her eye, she could see Zarin fighting a few other demons. They surrounded him, tackled him and brought him down on the floor while holding him in place.

Heaven knew she had no chance of winning but suddenly she got angry and strange sensation that made her want to fight to death went through her. With an urge to kill her claws and fangs came out.

She jumped from one table to another, trying to get to Zarin while the demon guests at the party watched the fight completely unbothered.

The ones fighting her caught up to her and knocked her down from the table before she could reach Zarin. Heaven was quick to get back up on her feet. Without hesitation, she sprinted towards her attacker. She knew his movements now and easily dodged the punch that came her way, getting under his arm and ending up behind his back she stabbed him in the spine with her claws.

Louis stood up from his seat. He didn't seem angry, only surprised as attcker fell on the ground, dead.
