She Belongs To The Devil

The human maid was too slow compared to the demon baby.

Damien was clinging onto her body before she could even think of escaping from that bathhouse.

Damien showed his fangs and smiled at the maid before opening his mouth widely and leaning down to bite the main arteries on her neck.

"Damien!"

Luckily for that maid and also for Damien, the guardian devil appeared right behind the two of them.

Without batting the eyes, Theodore covered Damien's mouth and got bitten instead of that maid. Theodore gritted his teeth and pulled that baby away from that maid.

However, because of the soap which was all over Damien's body, Theodore's hand slipped.

And Damien dangled on Theodore's palm with the help of his fangs only.

Theodore's blood gushed inside Damien's mouth. Damien was disgusted by Theodore's blood and he coughed, ultimately splatting on the floor on his back.

Everything that happened was so chaotic and it all happened so fast that the maid kept on standing there like a statue. She was utterly shocked and scared.

And as though she didn't already have the fill of her horror-filled evening, someone pushed the bathroom door, making her topple face down.

"What happened? Where's the vampire?" one of the guards shouted as he barged in. But he immediately came to a halt when he saw Prince Theodore holding his palm, a naked boy lying on the floor and coughing blood, and the unconscious maid on the floor.

That guard was at loss for the words so another guard bowed to the Prince Consort and asked, "Your Royal Highness, we heard her shouting earlier. Is there a problem?"

Theodore picked Damien from the ground and walked towards the tub while calmly answering, "I don't know what happened before I came here but this boy is my friend's son. I think he scared her. There's nothing to worry about."

Theodore then made Damien gargle his mouth with clean water.

The guards didn't know what to ask further so they awkwardly bowed and picked the maid from the floor to take a leave.

However, before they all left, Theodore asked, "Can you tell me what place this is? I teleported here so…"

One of the guards stayed behind and answered the Prince Consort. "You are in Grazia, Your Royal Highness."

"Oh… I see. Is Alan here?" Theodore asked again.

"Yes, shall I inform His Highness about your arrival?" the guard asked.

"Yes. That would be great," Theodore gave a nod and began pouring water on Damien's body.

And before going away, that guard asked, "Shall I send another maid here?"

"Yes, please. That would be helpful."

Immediately after the guard left, Damien blurted out everything that he had been holding in, "Prince Theodore! How did you find me here? Didn't Ariel come together with you? Can you take me to your home with you?"

Theodore gave a flick on Damien's forehead and then said with a frown on his forehead, "Not so fast, you little brat."n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

And he asked with a serious look in his eyes, "What were you going to do to that poor lady?" Not that he didn't already know what Damien was going to do. He was just glad that he teleported there in time.

If he had been a second late then he could guess what that bathhouse would have looked like right now.

"If anything bad had happened here then I would have killed that serpent," Theodore was cursing Leviathan in his mind.

Damien lowered his head now that he was finally out of his blood-dazed mind. And he replied in a low voice, "I was going to bite her. I'm sorry. Her blood…" Damien gulped and stopped talking.

Theodore narrowed his eyes at Damien and asked again, "You… you didn't taste her blood, did you?"

Damien gave a guilty look to Theodore and whispered, "I did."

"You…" Theodore pressed his lips together tightly so that he wouldn't say anything hurtful to that oblivious child.

He was angry at Damien. But he couldn't blame that child for doing what was in his nature. It was just that Theodore hadn't expected that Damien would also like human blood like his vampire father. That was one of the things which he had wished Damien hadn't inherited.

Theodore was so lost in his thoughts that he didn't realize he was bathing Damien very aggressively.

And he only came back to his senses when he heard Damien's pain-filled voice, "Prince Theodore, you are hurting me."

"Oh… sorry…" Theodore stopped squeezing Damien's pale hand.

One of Damien's hands had turned red because Theodore wrung it as though it was some cloth.

Damien gazed at Theodore and asked in a guilty voice, "Are you angry with me, Prince Theodore? I-I didn't mean to lick her blood… I just… I… umm… couldn't…"

"You couldn't control yourself?" Theodore completed Damien's sentence.

Damien nodded his head while keeping his gaze down on the water.

Theodore gently tapped on Damien's cheek and said in a loving voice, "I can understand how you must have felt. But we must not harm humans. They are very weak than us so we have to protect them. Do you understand?"

Damien nodded again.

Damien looked like he was going to cry so Theodore spoke again, "You don't have to worry too much though. There aren't any humans… well there aren't any living humans in the Hell realm. So you will never feel the urge again."

Damien's face turned even sadder. He instantly grabbed Theodore's sleeve and asked, "Are you telling me that I am not allowed to come to the Earth realm in the future?"

Theodore gave a smile and said, "Of course not. You can come here as often as you like when you grow up. But I don't think your mother will allow you to come here once I take you back there. She is really worried, you know."

"Mother…" Damien finally recalled that his mother was fighting Mammon. So he asked with haste, "How is my mother? Is she okay?"

A maid came running inside and bowed to Theodore. "Your Royal Highness, how may I assist you?"

Theodore looked at her and ordered, "Clean up the boy and dress him."

The maid began her task while Theodore answered, "Your mother is alright. She is one tough demoness. But she is worried sick about you. She made King Lucifer call the meeting of The Seven Princes and everyone is currently looking for you."

Theodore wiped his hand with a towel and added, "So I need to take you back there as soon as possible. Hell is in an uproar right now and it won't calm down until you go back there."

Damien didn't want to go back to Hell without meeting Ariel so he asked, "Can I meet Ariel before I go?"

Theodore pursed his lips and hesitantly replied, "I don't think waiting for that long is wise. Your mother is really worried."

Damien looked down and pouted while the maid began wiping his body. He didn't speak another word.

Theodore couldn't hurt that child's feelings so he offered, "I will bring you back here after you meet your mother and tell her that you are fine. How does that sound?"

Alan finally came running and greeted Theodore. And he said while huffing and puffing, "Sorry for making you wait. I had gone to the market to personally buy some quality meat for Damien. I wanted to treat him well."

Damien looked at Alan and then back at Theodore. And he demanded, "I want to come here first and have the meat. And I want to ride the 'Kya rage' and go to your Palace. Else I won't go back."

Theodore couldn't help but laugh at that demand of Damien.

And he replied, "Sure, Your Majesty. I will ask permission from your mother and fulfill your wish."

The maid finished dressing Damien up in the simple village attire.

Theodore then went and stood in front of him and asked, "If I promise to bring you back with me then are you willing to go back to your home?"

Damien finally gave a wide smile and enthusiastically nodded. "Yes. I am ready."

"Alright then," Theodore picked Damien in his arms and turned to look at Alan.

And he said to Alan, "Well, you heard Damien. I will come back with him as soon as Lilith will allow us to."

"You will also be having dinner with us then?" Alan asked with a smile.

"Yes, I guess so."

Theodore then asked Alan, "The maid who was bathing him earlier might be in a shock. Explain to her that Damien is not a vampire. You can tell her and the others that he is my friend's son."

"Sure. I will do that."
