I carried the small girl in my arms carefully and bought her near the outskirts of this forest.
I changed my form into a small white wolf.
The little girl woke up from her sleep, she looked so depressed and sad.
"What will I do? My grandfather will sell my siblings! I don't want my siblings to suffer from his abuse."said the little girl
I went towards the little girl and rubbed her tears away.
The little girl looked at me with a surprise expression and exclaimed"Omg! Are you the silver wolf who saved me? Why are you so small? Did you perhaps used the illusion magic to scare away the monster?"
I felt too ashamed to say that I was not using illusion magic thus I just pretended to not hear her question.
I went towards her and gently counsel her.
"It's already so dark! We need to get back home!"said the little girl
The little girl stared at me and asked"Little buddy do you have a home?"
Home....this word is so nostalgic. I remembered my older brother's betrayal and all of our good and bad memories. I guess I don't have a home anymore.
I shook my head.
The little girl carried me and hugged me tightly in her arms and said"let's go home! My name is Grace! Is your name Damon because that's what the collar has written."
Damon looked at his collar and was shocked because he had completely forgot about Mark making him wear this stupid collar! If I see him again, I will beat him up terribly, he vowed in his heart.
Somewhere in the demon kingdom, Mark the prime minister sneezed out loudly.
"Mark someone must be talking behind your back!"mocked a beautiful female demon with bird wings
Mark just rolled his eyes.
"Urgent news! Urgent news!"exclaimed a slime
Mark signal the slime to speak
"Our Majesty has finally awaken! He is awake! I heard from my subordinates that his majesty is back! His majesty the great demon prince Damon is back!"exclaimed the slime in a happy tone
Mark eyes widen with surprise and tears
Flashback
A little cute boy with blue hair and eyes was looking at the handsome and majestic wolf.
"Older brother Damon, will you please wear this collar? This is my newest invention, it is a space storage. You store anything inside, except for live things."said the little cute boy with blue hair and eyes
"Mark, I don't like this stupid collar but for your sake I will wear it."said Damon
Damon looked conflicted but he turned smaller and allowed Mark to put the collar around his neck.
Flashback end
Inside Mark's heart: Older brother Lucifer, is that what you wanted? You told me to put a seal inside that collar right? Brother Lucifer, I will not forget our promise between us. I will help brother Damon be the king of the demon world.

Back to Grace and Damon
Grace carried Damon and went to her house.
Before she step into the house she heard her grandfather speaking with her grandmother.
"I'm so glad that the stupid ill granddaughter is gone for good. I hope she dies in the forest of never return. I hope she doesn't come back after today."said her grandfather
"I know right, I hope she dies, I don't want to look after that nuisance and I hate their mother to my bones. That bitch took away my son! If that bitch wasn't here, my son would never treat me like that"said the grandmother
"I hope my threaten works, there is no such herb that exist in this world, I made her find a herb that doesn't exist. If she loves the twins, she must have ventured deep into the forest. Hopefully she will die in the forest, I don't want her to ruin our family. She doesn't deserve the twins love or care."said the grandfather
"Yeah absolutely, but old man you won't sell our grandchildren to the slave traders right?"asked the grandma in a very heavy and scary tone
"Of course not! They are our little bundle of joys! I only said that I will sell them to force the girl to go to the forest of never return."said the grandfather
Suddenly, two little children came towards the grandparents.
"Grandpa, grandma! Jane wants to eat meat, can we please eat some meat with rice?"begged Allen
The grandparents looked at the twins warmly and said"You guys can eat whatever you want, you two are our sweet grandchildren."
The grandparents laughed and started to prepare the meal for the twins. They look like a perfect family.
Grace stood outside of the house as she looked at the warm scene.
Damon hugged her tightly.
"Damon, I'm really a nuisance right? I can never do anything that makes my family proud. My parents had disappeared after my birth. Ever since I was young, my older brother was the only one who told me to take a rest and take it easy. However, even he went away leaving me behind. The twins are my dear siblings even if we are actually cousins but I love them dearly because they would come and visit me when I was sick and feeling unwell. Their smiles would brighten up my life."cried Grace softly as she hugged Damon
Grace slowly went further away from the house carrying Damon in her arms.
Grace looked at the unfamiliar place and sat down in the street.
"Damon, I no longer have a home. I'm just like you all alone."said Grace as she embraced Damon tightly.
