To Bewitch a Devil

What are the odds that Zavian, the son of the devil, would fall for the only woman whose destiny is to destroy him? In the beginning of time, war broke out between the fallen angels and the devil, and the devil was defeated and cast into the underworld. During the war, Zavian, the devil’s son, turned against his father and joined hands with the other demons to defeat him, which made the devil kill his son's wife as a punishment for betraying him. But 500 years later, there appeared a woman slave who looked exactly like his wife, and Zavian, who had longed for his dead wife, couldn’t help but get drawn to her. But the devil had other plans for his son. To return to earth his son has to die. Is the queen's doppelganger part of the devil's plans? Would Zavian fall right into his father’s trap or has fate got other plans for him? … Everyone stood before the king, the high and the low, with their heads bowed. This was the day they had waited for, for centuries. King Zavian was finally getting remarried. To strengthen the bond between the seven kingdoms of the earth, Zavian was to get married to one of the beautiful princesses standing in front of him. But his eyes were drawn to the lowly maid standing afar off. The witches had warned him about her, and he knew he shouldn’t be with her, but she was something he couldn't resist. The more he tried to run away from her, the more drawn he was to her. Even though everything in him screamed not to, Zavian stood up and walked past the princesses in front of him and to the maid; She was tiny in her dress, and her whole body trembled as he approached her, her eyes pinned to her feet, afraid to behold his face. He smiled as he held her face, tilting her head to look at him; ‘’Neera, will you be my queen?’’ And that was when all of hell broke loose... .... The novel is written by zhiruyi on webnovel.com.

It was a nightmare

Zavian said nothing to that. He didn't know if he still had trust issues with any of the Princesses, but he appreciated that Jasmine referred to her by her name and not as 'the maid'. And he knew that Neera liked her, and he found that if there was any Princess, he could trust her around, it was Jasmine.

They arrived at the open part of the garden, and he could see the way the faces of the palace workers brightened upon her arrival. There were greetings, and Zavian noted the way she asked after their wellbeing, watched her converse with them, and he found it endearing.

"Leon, one of the guards has been ill, ", she told the King when she was back at his side. "I recommended a few herbs, and thankfully, it worked. He is still recovering."

Zavian didn't even know any of the workers by name. Talk more of knowing who was ill or not. But here was someone who cared for the plight of the workers individually. It was touching.
