Lily reached Edinburgh with Lucian. Stepping down the car, Lucian told Lily to be careful from that day onwards. “Do not worry. I will keep this in my mind and this secret will be hidden till my death,” asserted Lily with an assurance.
Lucian shook his head in agreement and told Lily that she should go to her house. Lily nodded and went to her house. As she rang the doorbell, her mother opened the door and welcome her. “You came home earlier than expected,” Victoria asked Lily as they came to the living room.
“Yes, mom. The work completed earlier so, there was no meaning to stay there,” Lily proclaimed and rested on the couch. “Where is dad?” she asked as she looked around.
Victoria sat beside Lily and spoke, “Honey has gone to fishing with his friend.” Lily shook her head. “Which friend?” Lily queried curiously.
“Mr. Smith,” replied Lily’s mother. “By the way,

“Why did Mark ask for a punishment? He left the opportunity to become the king,” Lucius said angrily as he sat on the couch.“Dad, let him make the choices for his own. If he does not want to become the king then, I think we should not force him,” asserted Marcus. Jasper looked at Marcus and said, “It is not about making the choices. It is about fulfilling the responsibilities, Marcus. Mark left them to save a human. Our anger on him is legit.”Ronald too was furious on Mark’s behavior. “How could Mark not let the human sign the pact? In future, if she does any mistake then Mark have to bear the consequences. I do not understand when this brainy man turned to a stupid man. Making decisions just because of a mere human,” Ronald sagaciously stated and huffed. “Uncle Ron, Mark likes Lily so, he does not want her to face any kind of problem because of us Devils. This is the first time he
Mark and Serena were sitting face to face on the sofa chairs there. Mark asked the reason behind Serena’s sudden visit to him.“Why did you leave the opportunity of becoming a King?” Serena asked from Mark.“You are here to ask this?” Mark chuckled and averted his gaze from her. Serena spoke, “Mark, I know I left you suddenly but it did not mean that you should have been paired up with that human, with a mortal!!”“Serena, stop assuming. Do you really think I chose her because you left me? I am happy that we separated ways and yes, I agree to what you said to me the day after breakup. I never loved you not even liked you. It was just you used to be with me all the time that’s why I felt dejected for a while,” Mark proclaimed, looking into Serena’s eyes.“I am happy that you accepted the truth that you never liked me or loved me. But, I am also sure that you are attracted to the human just because she has a different world from you. You
Lily was looking at Lucius Scott with an inquisitiveness. “If he will continue to intervene in your life then he might die,” Lucius asserted. Lily’s eyes widened upon hearing that. She had not had expected that.“But, aren’t the Devils immortal?” Lily queried Lucius.“Indeed, they are but, they are also severely punished if they do mistakes. Mark had already done one mistake by saving your life and he is being sent to Hell. He has lost the opportunity of being the King of Devil to save you. Since his childhood days, he never once did things like this. I understand that you like her but do not let Mark love you.”It seemed Lucius was warning Lily. Her eyes turned teary. “Why shall I not let him love me?” Lily questioned. Her fingers were moving against each other in nervousness.“Because he will lose his life,” Lucius proclaimed. “He is my youngest son and most precious to me. I will not hide anything from you, Miss Evan. I do not know whether Mark had told yo
Lily could be seen in her room, was seated in the desk chair, staring at the desktop screen but was not doing anything. “I have to forget him. But, how? As soon as he will come in front of me, I won’t be able to lie to him,” Lily thought and her eyes turned teary. She ran her fingers through her hair and put her both hands on her forehead.“Lily, I can help you in this,” voiced Lucian who was seated on one of the edges of the bed. Immediately, Lily turned her head and asked him how did he get inside.“I am a Devil,” Lucian proclaimed and twitched his lips. “It seems you are not getting any idea how to make Mark stop loving you which he already started,” asserted Lucian and gave a tiny smile to Lily.“Will my love towards affect him in the future negatively?” Lily asked Lucian.“Umm… he will be punished if he again did anything to save you from the danger. The severity of danger no one knows. Even if I had known then I would not have told you as it is not allo
Mark could be seen sitting on the sofa chair and in front of him Olivia was seated on the sofa chair. “So, you want me to suspend your punishment?” Olivia asked Mark.“Yes. I know that you can do that. Only you have the powers to suspend my punishment. The king will listen to you immediately you order him to,” asserted Mark.Olivia smiled and crossed her arms. “Why will I do that?” She asked him. “Give me a valid reason to suspend your punishment,” stated Olivia.“After conversing with Serena, I realized that my family is not supporting me. They are against my decision and I do not trust them. I do not know if Lily is safe or not. Every second, my worriedness for her kept on increasing so, I want you to suspend my punishment,” asserted Mark with a pleading look.Olivia chuckled. “You are acting as a human. Lily is my love rival. Do you really think I will suspend your punishment just because of those reasons?” Olivia asked Mark who understood what Olivia mean
Lily opened her eyes when she heard Lucian saying that to her. But it was late because she felt that she was glued to that place. She moved her eyes in nervousness. The canine was touching her skin when she felt Lucian’s other hand over her eyes. “If you will be nervous like this then I might not be able to mark you,” Lucian whispered against Lily’s ear.“Why am I not able up m-move?” Lily asked with a stutter.“Because I thought you might step back from this deal out of nervousness or fear so, I used a magic spell on you. Just relax yourself. It is going to be easy,” asserted Lucian. Lily gulped the saliva formed in her throat. “Shall I continue then?” Lucian asked Lily’s permission.“Yes,” she replied with an affirmed tone. Lucian smiled and again leaned towards her neck. Without wasting anymore second, he kissed the skin of Lily’s neck, lick it and then opened his mouth. The fangs touched her skin but the next second she head a loud thud sound.Right away,
Lily stopped Mark to take her away from her house. “My parents are not home so, let’s stay here,” Lily said in a low voice. Mark gave a nod and sat on the bed. He opened his shoes and then pulled up the blanket to cover Lily. Lily snuggled closer to Mark as she started feeling the pain again.Mark put his hand around Lily and pulled her closer. “I am sorry for going hard on you. But it was the only way,” Mark asserted. Lily hummed and spoke, “I am feeling hot near my neck as if it is burning.” Mark tilted Lily’s head and saw the mark has reddened and she was feeling intense pain because of that.Mark leaned closed to Lily’s neck and sucked the marked area, followed by a gentle kiss. As he pulled away he said, “You have to bear it, Lily. The pain will go away by the morning.” Lily felt the breath of Mark near her neck and it soothed her out. Gradually opening her eyes she peered into Mark’s eyes.“How did you come here? Weren’t you in Hell?” Lily asked curiously.
Lily’s sleep broke and she found Mark was in half laying positing beside her. His hand was over her. Lily tried moving up but the pain did not let her. Luckily, her parents were not home so, she was relieved. But, what about her work? “M-Mark,” she called out his name in a low voice.Mark opened his eyes and looked at her. “You are awake? How are you feeling?” Mark asked Lily as he caressed her cheek and then hair.“I am not able to move myself. I have to go to work,” stated Lily in a meek voice.“You cannot go to work today. You are not able to move because of the pain you are getting from the bite. I think I should have waited a little more,” Mark pronounced. Lily told him not to say things like that. Using her entire strength, she sat up on the bed and rested her head on Mark’s shoulder.“Now, I am feeling good,” Lily stated. Mark smiled and caressed her hand. They intertwined their fingers together and smiled. “I love you, Lily,” Mark said. Lily smiled an
