Chapter 9 - Ch 9: Human heart

Sannoth the demon listens to Xalroz making the disguise of Grima go away to show her real form of a body.

Two long black horns grow from the side of her head carving backward with tips pointing up a little. Pure snow-like white long hair that grows out.

Her eyes were completely yellow like gold coins and her skin tone looked deep grayish.

"It is nice to look upon my kind again. It has been a long time since learning that I have lost so many years."

Xalroz takes steps forward to lay a single hand upon the side of the left cheek of Sannoth. This demon shivers by feeling her lord touching the side of her face, always having the desire to feel his touch after so long.

"Pity that I also hate my kind, but the wrath for the Gods outweighs that hate greatly."

"My lord." She was confused and taken aback by those words that were heard.

"Nevermind it doesn't matter, don't just get on with this gift you told me about."

"Right the gift, I have for you, my lord Xalroz is a nice tasty human for you to have the enjoyment of."

Sannoth leads him toward a human female passed out back against a tree. She didn't look to be anyone important by her clothing.

"Where did you find this female?"

"I took this human female from that man's farm, the father of the girl whose body I was using at the time. Of course, this person exposed me right as I and that human man entered the house.

"You didn't kill him, did you Sannoth?"

"No my lord right as that happened the man tried to kill me, but there wasn't any chance he could do anything to me. So it was easy for me to knock that human out cold and do the same to the slave before she can bring more trouble to me."

After she was done explaining, he turned back to the human slave girl's body.

"So this female is a slave then."

"Yes, I understand this one isn't befitting to a lord like yourself, but do not worry, I will find someone perfect the next time."

"No, it 's great that she won't be missed whenever a northern owner cares about their slaves gone missing."

After he finished speaking the slave girl began to awaken, opening up slowly and soon getting a clear view of two figures standing in front of her.

"Huh?.... where am I…. Wait Thorkell is that you."

Xalroz didn't think this person would know him then again it is not the demon lord but instead the Drow elf whose body he has taken control of when awakened.

"What are you…. Ahhhh!."

Right as the slave girl was talking to him, she couldn't miss the demon Sannoth standing by his side looking down at her.

Xalroz had to stop it by having a hand covering her mouth when getting down to her level.

"Shut your mouth, your scream is annoying to be hearing as much as I would love nothing more to listen yet it is not this night that I'm in a mood for."

"Would my lord like for me to finish her off, so my lord can have an easier time with his meal."

"No, I will take the honor in that as I do love to tear into the flesh of humans or anything living being that I can get my hands on."

Confused about what was going on and what the two were talking about. It didn't matter for long when she felt the other hand on her chest left there for the moment.

"I love the feeling of tearing out a mortal heart. It brings about a power rush to me."

Xalroz says right as he had that same hand dug and pushed into the chest. The pain no doubt is a horrible feeling when one is in the process of getting their heart removed from the body by force.

She fought at best to break free struggling with all her might, but he had her pin so good that there wasn't a way to get out of it.

It took not long for Xalroz to have a beating bleeding heart in his hand standing back up to take in the view of this human organ.

"A human heart is all it is for me to feed on, but it will take this body to get used since this is going to be normal food to eat."

The amount of blood covers the whole hand as drips of it fall to the ground and some slide down the arm a bit.

The slave girl shows a face of horror as the body slowly falls to the right side lying on the ground that way with a massive hole in the chest area.

More blood escapes out that way to print the ground with its color.

Xalroz starts to make this new body digest the new meat it is about to have in the stomach. He took one bite slowly taking the flesh and blood into his mouth taking a lot to not throw it back up.

Minutes go by when Sannoth quietly stands where she is watching as her lord feeds on the heart until there isn't any left of it.

Once done she witnessed the shake of his body and the excitement after devouring a human heart. Something was increasing inside this Drow elf.

"Ah! That is the hit to what I need. This is going to help bring back the power required."

Xalroz turns around to face the demon Sannoth to show her those red blood-like eyes and mouths covered in blood.

"It is a joy for me to see you happy like this."

"Yes you are just showing me how good of a loyal servant you can be, but tell me what you truly desire from me."

"Lord Xalroz, I don't understand what you are saying."

"Please a demon acting this obedient toward me has the motion to use me until they can move in once I have gained much into a powerful position."

Xalroz sees her expression change from that of sadness not as one to be bothered by his words instead.

"I can see you don't completely remember who I am."

"To be honest no I don't seem to recall much of a demon like you, just your name seems familiar to mind."

"My name is the one you gave me when saving me from being taken and sold off by those demons that plan to do so when I was a child."

"A child that I saved."

Xalroz starts working to remember what Sannoth had said and it does bring a quick flash of memory of a part that shows when he was in a different old body killing some demon and finding a child afterward.

"Sannoth you're that same little demon who I took in and have grown all up now."

Sannoth has a happy smile on her face as she can't stop running and hugging him.

"Yes! You're starting to remember me."
