Attached To His Lover

When sheltered Robin McDougal is snatched from a life of captivity and forced to marry the mysterious demon Andras Mulciber, he is torn between terror and desire. Since Andras Mulciber had no intention of settling down with anyone it was meant to be a marriage in name only—and only for one year. He never suspected that the meek hostage after being given a taste of freedom would become a free spirited mischievous imp. Not known to outsiders for his kindness, Andras feels an inkling of pity for Robin and honors the agreement he'd struck to keep the peace. That required Andras to marry the orphaned beauty and bring him back to his castle at Hell’s Island for safekeeping, shocking his loyal crew. It would turn the world upside down if his rivals that labeled Andras a crazed murderous demon behind his back got wind of the news he was getting soft. Rumors of foul play and black magic swirl as many believe the secretive Andras is either cursed or a cold blooded killer as his last bride did not live past their wedding night. Now country-bred Robin McDougal is about to become the Vulcan’s latest plaything. Drawn to his masculine strength and the hint of heated desire that gleamed in Andras' dark eyes, the tawny-haired Robin has his own reasons for flirting with danger. First was for family obligations; meant Robin would entangle Andras in a kidnapping plot, a fight for ownership, and a dangerous masquerade. The other reason was closer to his heart, a slight chance to thrive where those before him had failed: Robin McDougal intended to teach the demon how to love.

She then met with the icy red eyes that brood down upon her appearance, drinking into every inch of her figure as if he was studying her, even to how those breaths escaped her lips. "I thought we had bonded over the days we have spent together, Bella," he sang, his bright scarlet eyes betraying the singing tone he had used as it had grown so dark and filled with anger. "Yet you left so quickly as soon as I opened the castle gate." Bella gritted her teeth, her eyes glaring at him as she defiantly shook his hand off her face, "I can remind you if you have forgotten it, Your Majesty, I am kept here against my wish."

She had always known his fearsome side however, it felt scarier tonight.

Then was everything a lie, Arabella?" he murmured, his hands cupping her face, forcing her to meet his eyes. "You were mine the moment you entered my castle. And you will be mine until the very end." She gulped as his eyes shone underneath the moonlight, his gaze unforgiving over her, exposing his wild hunger. Her breath caught, her pulse quickening. "A human and a vampire should have never stayed together. They were all right." "I don't care," he spoke through his clenched jaw. "You're going to remain here by my side forever."

But Rhea can’t do it alone. Enter Blaze_King—real name Kapish—a sarcastic, unknown game developer who stumbles upon her livestream and casually applies to help.

Based on the tale told before us, Medusa was a beautiful maiden who was seduced by Poseidon in a temple of Athena. Such a sacrilege attracted the goddess' wrath, and she punished Medusa by turning her hair to snakes. Then, the Greek hero Perseus beheaded Medusa, and he used her head, which retained its ability to turn onlookers to stone, as a weapon until he gave it to the goddess Athena to place on her shield.
