I am Sandraino, the devil. I am the king of the kingdom of darkness. King of hell, King of the underworld and king of the demon kingdom. I am the most evil being that has ever existed. Having the power of darkness, right below me.
I thought that I was the most despicable being that had ever exist. I thought that I was the most evil thing that had ever existed. But I never knew that my own son seemed to be more evil and despicable than I was.
As the devil and king of the kingdom of darkness,it was a lot expected of me to be evil to the core. Everyone saw the devil as someone that brought pain, sorrow and death. Not to lie, even death itself cowered at my immense power.
But as everyone knows,fate is twisted. I got mated to the goddess of love.
Lucy,that was her name. She was the most beautiful woman that had ever lived. Even her mother,the moon goddess was not as beautiful as she was.
Then there was my son, Drake. Who I feared to be more evil and despicable than I was.
As the devil, I always supported my son when he performed evil deeds. When he killed mercilessly, I always supported him.
When he went around, raping and having sex with female demons and people's mates, I always supported him.
Though, his mom, Lucy,never really supported him. When he did evil and bad things right from his young age,she never supported him.
She would always rebuke and reprimand him.
With his ever growing need to be evil, it made the whole kingdom of darkness fear his monstrosity. Not until the seven demon Lords of the demon kingdom, complained to me about the growing evil in my son's heart. They put down their fear before me, telling me that one day,my son would become a cold heartless monster. They feared that there will be no stopping him when his heart goes dead. They feared that he would be the monster that I had once been.
It really worried me that one day,my son would loose his heart and become a heartless monster. With all the evil and bad things he had been doing, I fear that his heart would go cold and die.
I don't really blame him for being evil. Besides, he is the son of the devil. But he was going too far.
Doing lot's of evil things would harden his heart and he would even be more evil and despicable than me, the devil.
I had to talk to him. So that, he could lower the continuation of his evil deeds. Hoping that he would not turn into the monster that the kingdom of darkness fears. To hope that his heart would not go cold and die.
The whole kingdom of darkness fear him. He had killed a lot of demons, monsters, evil spirits and an endless cycle of evil deeds.
He had to stop before his heart turns cold. Before his heart fades away.
Funny,he had never in his life experienced what they called love. My son saw it as a sign of weakness. Even the devil cannot do without love.
###
In the kingdom of darkness, there was a castle. A really dark castle, overshadowed with fog that could scare away even the bravest demon. It was the home of Sandraino. The devil himself.
This castle was were I,my mate and my son lived. The home of the devil was were no man would want to carelessly venture into.
The dark castle was made of dark crystalline stones that were gotten from spiritual beasts. These dark crystalline stones were forged into bricks which were used as a starting foundation for the building of the castle.
In my castle, there are many tunnels, scary tunnels that if care is not taken, one could get lost in them and never come out for the rest of their life.
Demons of war were well stationed in many areas of my castle. Invading the devil's castle,one would have to go passed the demons before even successfully reaching the me. That's if one can survive the many tunnels in the castle.
I the devil,sat on my dark throne in my throne room. My throne room filled with intense fog, it could make one not to see more than three meters away.
I sat on my dark throne, physically asleep. But though,my mind was actually traveling back and forth the whole kingdom of darkness. I took notice of everyone that comes in and goes out of the kingdom of darkness.
But then, my mind took notice of Drake,my son. He was in the home of a demon, having sex with the demon's mate. He seemed to be merciless in bed and it made me grin. As the devil's son, he was more prone to evil things.
He continued fucking the demon's mate,not caring that the female demon was loosing strength. Perhaps, getting weak.
Not long after,a male demon burst into the room were my son was. He didn't care if the man fucking his mate was the devil's son. He angrily lunged at my son, ready to tear him apart.
Drake didn't even need to resist, he easily froze the male demon in spot while he continued plunging in his mate. I bet he was enjoying every time he spent with the female demon.
I knew Drake would kill the male demon for even trying to attack him. That was how merciless my son was. I knew that the male demon was as good as dead. Because, Drake would kill him for even daring to attack, the son of the devil.
Returning my mind back to my body, I opened my eyes with a grin on my lips. I kinda felt tired. It wasn't easy, running the whole kingdom of darkness. But with my mate beside me, everything was going smoothly.
As if on cue, Lucy walked out from the shadows.
My grin widened seeing her perfect figure. Infact, she was the most perfect being that was ever created.
"What are you grinning at?"
She asked as she walked closer to my throne.
Her steps were a lot elegant that made me want to cling to those thighs of hers.
"Nothing. Just grinning at the most beautiful being ever".
I praised while getting up on my feet.
She chuckled.
I walked up to her and took her in my arms. She was beautiful and quite the sexy type too.
"Stop teasing me. It makes me feel like a baby".
I chuckled at her words and I pulled back.
"You are a baby. And if you do not know, you are my baby".
She smiled hearing my words. Her perfect set of teeth coming up for viewing. It made me melt in love. Like I said, even the devil cannot do without love.
"You are so cute".
She commended. Her happy smile widening.
"Come have sit".
I said as I led her to my dark throne.
Getting to my dark throne, a little demon rushed over and placed a lovely dark throne beside mine. There was a reason why I had called the throne lovely.
The new throne that the little demon had brought,was made of dark crystalline stones and laced with black roses.
Lucy admired the throne for a moment. She immediately sent the little demon a smile and the demon grinned happily, before disappearing into the fog.
After admiring the throne that was set up for her, she sat on it. Immediately she sat on it, the black roses on throne, suddenly came alive and started bringing out the colour red.
Red was her best colour. She used magic to make the new dark throne set up for her, into a marvelous rose throne.
My heart suddenly wavered in love, seeing the way she easily used magic in making the dark throne, a beautiful sight.
"Isn't it beautiful?"
She asked while staring at me.
I nodded as I sat beside her on my dark throne.
"The roses are just as beautiful as you. Ever bringing out their light".
She chuckled, hearing my words.
"Ahn, ahn, ahn. Don't judge the colour of these roses. They could be dangerous".
She sent me an evil smirk and I couldn't help but plaster a kiss on her lips.
Moving in deeper into the kiss, I allowed my tongue to play with hers. Our tongues moved with cheer delight,or was it ferocity.
I pulled back only to plant a peck on her forehead.
She smiled.
"Wish our son could experience what they call love".
She said with sadness attached to it.
Though, she was right. All Drake's life, he had never ever experienced what they call love. All he had ever experienced or wanted , were negative things and it was all making him a monster.
To think he loved the things called, hate, betrayal, wickedness, killing merciless and the one he loved most was having fun with people's mates. My son has committed a lot of atrocities and I have turned a blind eye to it. He should learn that even the devil has limits to the evil things, he does.
"Yeah, you are right. I wish he could find it in his heart to love".
"That would never happen if his heart dies and you Know that".
I sighed hearing her words.
I pulled back and sat comfortably on my dark throne. She put her hands on my shoulder, slowly massaging it.
"I don't want him to turn into the monster of a devil that I had once been. He won't be able to survive it if his heart dies and he becomes a monster".
"Then we need to stop him from committing more evil deeds or else his heart would go cold".
She said, while earnestly persuading me.
I could remember the time I had been the monster the whole kingdom of darkness feared. I was a merciless killer without a heart,cause I had locked my heart away. But that was before I met Lucy.
If Drake continues commiting evil deeds, the growing evil in him would make him become the monster I had once been. Or even more than I had once been.
I couldn't let that happen especially since he was going to be the next devil.
"Napoli! Ruger! Come over here".
I called out.
Two warrior fox demons that stood at the door that served as an entrance to the dark throne room, quickly rushed over.
"What are you doing?" Lucy asked, peering into my dark eyes.
"I want to speak to my son".
I answered back and she nodded.
The two warrior fox demons knelt down before me, paying their respects to the devil.
"Rise warrior demons. Go into the demon realm and fetch my son. Take with you other three demons. And also,if you have to bind him, I give you permission to do it".
The two fox demon nodded and like lightning, they bolted out of the throne room.
I smiled, seeing how fast my demons were. Normally, demons were strong beings. As strong as even the angels and good spirits that reside in heaven. Or even stronger.
Sometimes, I forget that my mate is actually from heaven. She's the reason why I haven't even attacked that sorry place.
It wasn't long till five demons bolted into the throne room along with one the most handsome young man I had ever seen.
I took in the figure of Drake. Deeply accessing him with my dark eyes. He was of average height, quite muscular with a toned body. He had cute lips which he got from his mom. Short black hair from me and a darker skin from me as well.
He really do take after me. No wonder he wanted to be more evil and despicable than I was. Don't blame him. It's in the devil's Gene.
"Hey old man. Why do you call me? I was having fun you know".
He spoke with a carefree attitude while strolling down, closer to the throne.
"Stop right there. Have some respect for your father".
Lucy rebuked with an angry look on her face.
Drake scoffed obviously, like it was no big deal. I felt insulted. Like my pride was thrown down the bus, and pride was something I had in full.
I controlled the rising anger easily.
"You all can return to your post".
I said to the five demons.
I got to notice that the three extra demons were all snake demons. They had snake tails which they used for movement and human heads that had scales.
The three snake demons immediately slithered away and the two fox demons went up to their posts.
Once the five demons had left, I turned my gaze at Drake and I could see the scowl on his face.
"Where are you coming from?"
I asked plainly even though I knew where he was coming from.
Drake chuckled with a monstrous voice that filled the walls of the throne room with fear. Even I noticed the killing intent coming out from him.
"Don't play dumb, dad. You know we're I am coming from but if you choose to play like a dumb ass, I will tell you".
He spoke sarcastically. It looked like he was taunting me but I only nodded, inclining him to tell me where he was coming.
"I just was just having fun".
"With somebody's mate?" I spat out with ferocity.
Drake chuckled.
"Chill dad. I didn't kill anyone today, I just wanted some fun and besides,she was quite hot".
I growled at his words. Lucy's hand caressed me , calming down my anger in an instant.
But suddenly, I smiled. I decided to taunt him with the one thing he hated. A mate.
"If you were having fun with other demon's mate. Why don't you go get a mate for yourself".
I smiled seeing the frown on his face. He clenched his fists so hard that I was sure that they would break if he wasn't careful.
"That's because, having mates makes you weak".
"Then why go out and have sex with people's mates?"
Lucy asked with an expressionless face.
Drake smirked.
"Like I said, it's for fun" .
I immediately got angry at his words. Having sex with people's mates was not for fun. Instead, he was doing it to harden his heart.
It seems, he's bent on being that ferocious monster that I once was.
"For fun. You call, fucking others mates fun. How despicable can you be".
I snapped out angrily at him.
He only rolled his eyes like it was no big deal.
"Despicable enough to be the son of the devil".
My blood boiled with anger. This son of mine was pressing on my buttons and if I can't control my anger I wouldn't stop myself from killing him.
"My son cannot be irresponsible all in the name of being evil".
I spoke through gritted teeth.
Drake shrugged his shoulders like all he said was nothing.
"At least, doing a lot of evil things would make my heart harden and I will kill my heart making me a monster that even the kingdom of darkness would fear".
"So that's your plan. To kill your heart and fill it with darkness".
Lucy spat out in fury that even the throne room could testify of.
Drake grinned happily.
"Yes mum. I believe that if I continue commiting evil and despicable things, I could easily kill my heart, making it devoid of emotions and feelings. Besides, it's in our blood as devils to have evil in our hearts".
He said while sending me a wink.
Hearing the last part of what he said was all that was needed for me to snap out in fury. For him to say that, devils were supposed to be evil only proved how hardened his heart was.
Getting angry, I lunged right at Drake, as fast as light and punching him in its wake. Drake flew a few meters away and landed on the floor with a thud.
Drake growled angrily and lunged ferociously at me, punching me back.
Getting up, I summoned my dark spirited axe. It was an axe of chaos and destruction. It was a powerful axe use in a war against the gods of heaven.
After summoning the axe, I took two long strides and connected with Drake's face sending him flying and hitting the wall.
I stood up right, grateful that I did not enforce magic into the dark axe. If I had enforced magic into the dark axe, for sure, Drake would have died from the impact.
Letting my guard down, I did not notice Drake lunging at me and plunging his sword into my stomach. Rage shot through me, that my own son had stabbed me with a sword.
I roared loudly and dark flame burst out of my body, forcing Drake to the wall. Letting out a monstrous laugh, I strolled like nothing wrong had happened,over to were Drake lay.
Lucy watched as I fought with my son. She didn't interrupt but I knew she was angry that I had punched Drake.
Drake growled angrily. His fury bursting out in waves. Immediately,dark flames burst out of his body like mine. He lunged right at me, punching me. I blocked his punch and sending mine as well but he easily dodged.
Jumping up, he sent a ball of dark flame but I deflected it with mine.
But suddenly he vanished. I could feel fear seeping into me knowing that he had vanished.
Not long after, he appeared again and with lightning speed, he plunged claws right into my chest. Pain shot through, having been injured in two places. He kicked me once he had removed his claws and I was sent flying into my throne.
Blood seeped out of my injuries but I didn't care.
"I am the son of the devil. Never forget that".
He said with a monstrous voice.
That was when I noticed it.
His heart. It was dying. With every evil he has committed, he was hardening his heart, killing it in the process. And if his heart dies, he would turn into a monster.
Fear overshadowed me at the realization. I looked at Lucy who was using her magic in healing my injuries. She didn't seem to see the fear in my eyes.
I took my gaze back to my son who was standing looking at Lucy heal my injuries.
"You should also never forget that, I am the devil".
I said.
He gritted his teeth in anger. The darkness that was killing his heart,made it hard for him to love. Cause his heart was already so hardened that it would die.
Drake angrily picked up his sword and disappeared through the entrance. The two fox demons merely gave way for him to pass, out of fear.
It even surprised me that they didn't even interrupt the fight between me and my son. Maybe they were scared to death, seeing the devil and his son fight.
"You shouldn't have fought with him".
Lucy said cutting through my thoughts. She seemed to be doing her best in healing my wounds and in no time,they were healed.
I sighed.
"It isn't my fault. He is so bent on becoming the monster I once was".
"Yeah, but you fighting him would only make his heart harden the more".
Lucy said as she folded her arms.
"The demon Lords already complained about the his ever growing evil doings, if he isn't stopped, he would be a monster".
I said, trying to make Lucy see reasons for my actions.
Lucy sighed. She turned to me and cupped my cheeks with her delicate hands.
"I love you so much. What our son needs is love, but he needs it in a different way".
I nodded at her words.
"So what do we do now. We can't allow our son to be corrupted by his evil deeds. His heart can't die".
I spoke with fear, worry and anxiety attached to it.
"You saw his heart right?"
"Yeah, I did. It's dying".
Lucy pulled her hands from my cheeks as she sighed. I simply took her hands back and put it back on my cheeks.
"I love you" I said as I kissed her.
@@@
After three hours, I sent a message to all the demon Lords in the demon kingdom. Not long after, the seven demon Lords arrived at the devil's castle.
One by one,the trooped into my castle along with their demonic carriages. They were all well dressed to see their king the devil.
I also invited the king of the underworld. He was also under my leadership. He was a demonic evil spirit. And he was known as Legion.
The names of the seven demon Lords are as follows:
1. Leviathan; Lord of the demonic monsters.
2. Osmond; Lord of the animal demons.
3. Yecaba; Lord of the fallen angels.
4. Hermit; Lord of the perpetual demons.
5. Munokim; Lord of the soul demons.
6. Nasalum; Lord of the demons from the pit of hell.
7. Yakaruna; Lord of zombies,orges, ghouls and all that.
Then there was Legion. The king of the underworld.
&&&
I was in my bedroom, getting dressed for the meeting I was having with my subordinates. My bedroom was just like any other bedroom in the kingdom of darkness. It was filled with dark and black materials. Even my bed compromised of a black bedsheet and black blanket.
I was going to be getting dressed in a formal black garment.
Just as I was done dressing, Lucy walked into the room. She didn't really knock,so one could say for sure she barged in. She had a worried look on her face but she did her best to wash it out.
"Why did you call for a meeting with the seven demon Lords?" She asked with a frown.
I turned to her while sighing. Her frown didn't really fit her.
"I just needed to confirm something" I said as I walked towards her.
"Confirm, you say. After you merely fought with your son".
"Look, it's not my fault that I fought with him. He was just messing with me. Do you really want to see your son become a monster with no heart at all".
"No".
She simply answered.
"So there you have it".
"But what exactly are you trying to do?" She asked.
I sighed.
She was right. What exactly was I trying to do. If I need to stop my son from committing evil deeds that would harden his heart, thereby killing it in the process, I needed to act fast.
"For too long, I have been tolerating Drake's bad misdeeds. I saw it as his nature of being evil. And you know being the son of the devil,it is expected of him to be evil. But I never knew he was filling his heart with darkness. So, I'm trying to right my wrongs".
Lucy smiled hearing my words. She came closer and cupped my cheeks. Her hands were warm and I felt pleasure, from her only holding my cheeks.
"So now, do you believe that supporting Drake's evil doings was wrong?"
She asked with a triumphant smile.
"Not really. Besides, he's the son of the devil. He's supposed to be evil, but he has gone too far in filling his heart with darkness".
I said with a mischievous smirk.
Lucy scoffed.
"Oh, come on. You devils are all the same. Being evil is not the way. See what evil deeds is doing to your son".
She said, making me laugh.
Holding her hand,we both headed for the door. If someone would have seen us, he or she would have thought we were young lovers.
That's what having a mate feels like.
And that's what I wanted Drake to feel.
I promise to stop supporting Drake's evil deeds,so that he won't fill his heart with darkness. Hope that, one day,he wouldn't turn into the monster I once was.
