The night drew near and Samael know he need to go back to the forest before it's late, although he could leave for a long time now but he can't stay outside his pool on a red moon night.
He look at his human wife lying on the bed and he doesn't feel like leaving her alone tonight, it is their wedding night afterall and she has lost all her energy due to the strong magic cast he made
It's been more than eight hours since she's been sleeping and showing no sign of waking up, Ian had come over earlier and suggest that they take her to the hospital but he was against it and even refuse him staying to watch her
Samael gave her a last gaze and decide to take his leave before it is too late, he has only few minutes to get inside the soothing pool
Closing the door behind him, Samael went for the only door he created with an entry to the forest directly and went in, disappearing into the other world
Samael struggles to get to his abode as the red moon is already showing itself but he can't seems to get himself straight as the effect of the dark power was taking over him, feeling himself lost to it, his demon being starts to struggle to come out of him but he tries to subdue it and get to comfort
The moment he manage to get into his home, his aides rushes to him immediately and help him get into the pool
The second his body hits the water, his demon being gave a loud anguishing howl which made the whole place quivers like an earthquake is about to happen
The assistants quickly rush out of the room into safety while Samael battles with the two beings that threatens to take over him
~
Shaina finds herself running from an overshadowing energy which threatens to take over her, not sure what it is or why it is coming for her, she try to escape it but no matter how long she runs, it seems her pursuer wouldn't give up unless it caught her, at the dead minute when she was about to be captured, she fell into someone's arms and suddenly felt save
Shaina try to look up to see whose face is what but the moon isn't giving it light to her so she couldn't see the person who had come to her rescue
Both Vivianne and Vida entered the house back in their demon beings form, Vida walks in front with her eyes all white as she tries to find out whether Samael was there or not
"Lord Samael isn't here" she told Vivianne who just nodded her head surveying the place
"Today is a red moon, he can't bear to stay in the human world"
"Find the girl" she told her and the two begin a search all around the huge house
It didn't take long for them to find where she is staying as both can see through things, Vivianne walk in to the room with Vida behind her, she stood at the bedside and watch Shaina sleep for few seconds but then she felt something strange
Sweats covers all over her body like she is in some difficulty, her body shivers and a pang of fear appear on her face, suddenly her face turned into a very strange form that Vivianne couldn't help but get frightened for a moment as the strangeness
Regaining herself, she move closer again and after a close observation she snap her head in realization of what is happening, a look of panic appeared on her face and she glance at Vida who looks confused
Immediately she disappear into her dream and sees herself right inside the familiar cold forest, she look around to comprehend what was going on when she sees her running away from something vicious and stronger than her
In a swift move, she disappear again and reappear right in front of her and caught her before she gets caught by whatever was chasing her
She saw her lifting her face up to have a look at her and Vivianne quickly turned the darkness to them making it difficult for her to caught a glimpse of her face
After being sure she had caught her safely, she look to see what is it that could be after her and saw the dark shadow rushing at them, she want to fight it but decide against it and hurry to get them both out of there
Vivianne came out of the dream into the room and Vida quickly hold her to stop her from falling back, her face looked petrified and pale
"Dark power!' she breathed
"What?" Vida screeched and Vivianne place a finger on her lips to shut her up but it was too late as the sound woke Shaina up
"We have to leave now" Vivianne said and grab Vida's hands, then the two disappeared into the thin air
Shaina woke up feeling too tired to lift a finger, she look around the dark room and hurry to get out of the darkness into an reflection of night, the nightmare seem to be having an effect on her
"Hey, Samael! Ian!" she called out but nobody answered
She was sure she saw someone in the room when she open her eyes but then it was too dark and she isn't sure if she was still in the dreamland then or back in reality
She try to climb down the stairs to find both men but her dress keep getting in the way and that's when she realize she is still in her wedding dress
"What happened?" she asked holding her head and trying to recollect but her head was blank
"Was I duped?" she asked aloud in feeling a little overwhelm at the thought of being played
Her stomach grunts as she finds her way to the kitchen, it has been a long time since she eats something good and much, when she got to the kitchen more to her stomach big disappointment, there isn't any food except a fridge full of expensive wines
Not giving up feeding her stomach, Shania try finding something else in the kitchen and she finds some big box at the end of the room corner, she reach out her hand to open it when someone interrupt her and grab her hand
~
The red moon is disappearing soon and it is safe now for him to go back to the human world, his assistants hurrily brought him a new fine robe the moment he came out of water and cover his body with it
The water on him dried up immediately he stepped out of the water and his body look dry like he isn't inside water seconds ago
A soft wind blows around him for sometimes and then stops just across him in the room, a beautiful demon spirit came out of the wind and the wind stops
"Longtime friend" she greeted and pat Samael on his shoulder
"Why are you here?" he asked her going to fetch new clothes
"I came to see you my friend, it has been so long we saw each other" she said cheerfully
The assistants help him bring the clothes he wanted and want to help him dress up when he stops them and turn to his friend, he wave his hand at her and she instantly turn into a man
"Can you not use your magic on me without warning?"
"Have you decide yet?"
"No" Nom answered and pick one of the snacks place on the table
"Being a woman is fun but stressful, being a man is so boring and burdensome, so I decide to continue swapping till I find out which one I like"
Samael nodded and begin to walk away after he's done dressing up, the red moon is disappearing soon and he can go back to meet his wife
"Did you really take a liking to a human female?" Nom asked
Samael stop in his steps and look back at him and he knew at once what he did, but Nom isn't trying to hide it
"You took my form to go see her?" he asked sounding upset
"I just want to see if the rumors were true, but then the woman isn't as beautiful as I imagine her to be, I thought she would be more beautiful than Vivianne"
"Do not cause any trouble"
"What do you take me for? But it seems someone might" he said and smirk at him, Samael glare at him and he gave in
"I saw Vivianne and her demon animal, I think she came to see the human"
"Vivianne?"
"She has the right to be angry, afterall she is your partner and you choose a mere human over her"
Samael sigh and teleport himself back to the house, he appear back at the room where he left her and didn't see her there, he close his eyes briefly to know what happened in the room and everything came to him in a second.
He heard a sound coming from the downstairs and open his eyes then he teleport there again just in time to see her about to open the box, Samael grab her hand and pull her back.
Taken unexpected, Shaina was startle and scream out of fright and wanted to run away but Samael grab her by the arm and pull her to himself letting her rest on his body.
Shaina was forced to rest her body on him and she closed her eyes out of fear of who the intruder could be, slowly she open her eyes to see who it is, a pair of deep rich purplish red eyes stares right at her.
