Bride of the Demon Lord

Book 1 of the Brides of Darkness Series For hundreds of years, Calaren Town had been offering virgin maidens to fulfill their part on the treaty they made with the Court of Shadows to keep their small town under their protection. To be chosen meant death to the townsfolk, as there was no turning back to becoming a human again. Upon realizing that her younger sister was chosen as one of the maidens to be sacrificed by their impoverished town to the thirteen demon lords who once ruled their land, Iris Scarborough volunteered to take her place instead to save her. There was nothing exceptional about Iris, except for the secret she was keeping from everyone. However, even before she was taken away, Iris had already caught the eye of one of the demon lords. Rumors say that Lord Kieran Fleurnoir was the personification of death. His mere presence was enough to suck the life essence out of those around him. He was also known to be one of the strongest demons of all time, who possesses extremely dangerous and powerful magic. Taken to Asnar, a place filled with magical beings and monsters, Iris found herself enthralled and captivated not only by the place and its residents, but also by the cold and enigmatic demon lord, Lord Kieran. Once there, Iris realized that Asnar and Lord Kieran himself were different from what humans thought them to be. Loosely based on the tales of ‘Hades and Persephone’ and ‘Beauty and the Beast’.

Breaking the Bond (1)

Lord Kieran flicked his fingers and his clothing immediately turned into his ceremonial clothes as the Lord of Aisgarth. He hated that he had to meet both the Red King and High Queen of Shayla, but it was necessary to face them as Iris's mate. As he already suspected, Queen Asheera had already arrived before him. He could hear her voice outside Xanaros's throne room.

"He cannot have my daughter, Xanaros. You know this! You know that I need Iris and yet you still bound her to that man!" She cried out.

When Lord Kieran entered, announcing his arrival, Queen Asheera whirled around to face him. Her face was one filled with unconcealed rage. The demon lord wondered if his mate was aware of this side of the High Queen. Although magic can enhance one's appearance, Queen Asheera was starting to show signs of aging.

"You! Return my daughter to me!" She demanded.

Lord Kieran wondered if the HIgh Queen was losing her sane mind at that moment.
