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’.

Into the Labyrinth (1)

Iris thought she might be losing her mind. To think that she was attracted to Killian for a split second. She probably had been overthinking things between them. There was no way she had feelings for him. No! Certainly not! There must be a logical reason why she acted like this toward him. It wasn't like the Night King himself showed any interest in her. What would her mate think if Lord Kieran knew what she was feeling now?

Lord Kieran… He wouldn't sacrifice his life just to save her if it weren't for her. Iris still wondered if she was worth the trouble. She knew that she messed up things, and she was eager to prove that she wasn't a weakling anymore.

Iris didn't have to ponder for too long, as Killian told her they would leave for Helheim later. Iris went on her way and ignored the curious look she was receiving from the other demons. She quickly bathed, wore clean clothes, and packed the meager things in her tent.
