Dark side

At the northernmost point of the north. Above Mainland. The land of fire, blood, and snakes was located, the dwelling place of the beasts.

Amidst the ice and snow, a massive palace with a hub pillar rose to the sky. The columns were red and dragon-shaped. The castle was decorated with the heads of young people. And there was a pool of virgin blood in front of the palace. The king and queen of the court believed that human blood kept their skin healthy and soft.

Under the moonlight, the king of the demons was bathing in the pond. When a black snake lashed and curled beside him. The demons had human form, except that they had no heart in their chests and were not interested in anything or anyone. The monsters were greedy for money and power. They were tall with black hair. And red eyes. They loved power and did not share it with anyone.

Throughout history, demons have always sought to destroy the human race and to destroy love and purity.

That's why, as soon as they noticed about the princess and her extraordinary power, hired soul suckers to capture the princesses and Gain her control, to use her in the way of destroying human beings.

The snake transformed in professor Loran and bowed at the king respectfully; his aura was so powerful it made anyone tremble.

Osbert, "How dare you to show up during my bath time?" He caviled, coated with anger.

Loran, "I'm sorry, your grace, I had no choice. I had to inform you about something."

Osbert "What is happening, don't tell me that you lost Cordelia before she loses her human soul!"

An evil glint flashed past his eyes as he clenched his fists.

Loran "They invaded us, Noah and a middle-aged woman, they weren't too strong..."

With hearing Noah's name, Osbert glared at Loan dangerously.

'Noah? I thought we had him! Who is this bit then?" Osbert snapped angrily got out of the pond.

Loran took few steps back" I don't know, I only saw Noah, he was with Cordelia when he got into school, Gerald knows the rest."

She confessed her voice was shaking in fear, Osbert gave her a dangerous glare, grabbed her long black hair, pulled her against him, Loran's forehead covered with sweat in fear, winced in pain as he pulled her hair more.

Osbert "You lost the girl?"

Loran "I'm afraid yes, we had her, we were almost there! The girl was a half-beast when Noah and two others came, and then."

Osbert, "THEY RESCUED HER, AND YOU JUST WATCHED!"

Loren started to cry out of pain, kicked the air with her legs as the beast was lifting her, holding her neck.

Loren, "They killed all, wanted to keep me alive, but I scraped as soon as I found a chance to give you this information."

It was her last word before she gets strangled by the king; he smirked, left her corpse on the ground, and walked away.

AT SCHOOL...

In that split, Noah was wandering around in the room angrily; he looked over at Cordelia helplessly as Laura was trying to feed her human soul,

"As I met her, I knew she was stupid," he snapped, "She caused this!"

Robert chuckled, "Chill, son; she will be fine."

Noah glared at him, pulled out his dagger, stepped onto the girl, sat beside her,

"Let me do it, your grace," he told Laura polity, leaned over to cut Cordelia's throat.

Laura "Be careful not to kill her."

Noah took a deep breath, laid his mouth against her soft neck; he started to like the smell of her neck,

Laura sighed. "I couldn't feel anything, but as long as you are half-human and half-beast, maybe you can suck the beast soul out of her," she confirmed

Robert took her arm to stand her up. Held her in his arms to comfort her.

Robert" Don't worry, she'll be fine," he repeated. Laura was looking at Noah in despair.

Noah tried to suck all the beast's soul from Cordelia's body, but he isn't sure that he could clear her soul or not. When he is done, felt her body was going to explode, her head got heavy and, his eyes turn to red, he was getting taller, and his hair became black; he fell to the ground spinning around himself in pain. Cordelia opened her eyes faintly,

Noah gazed at her while whimpering in pain. A splitting headache was all he could feel at the moment.

Robert ran to him, held the poor boy in his arms; Noah was getting stronger, his chest got more muscular, and his human soul gone.

'Laura sighed. "He is a full beast now," she mutters, took Cordelia from the ground immediately. He is dangerous now, Robert, just like him," she mutters. Noah was whimpering in pain, leaning his head back on Robert's lap.

"No," Cordelia shouted, she was feeling better, at least she could understand what was happening around her,

Cordelia "No, please, he isn't a beast, he is a jerk, but he has a soft heart, "

Laura dragged her out of the room, found another bedroom for her grandchild to can rest, she laid her on the bed gave her forehead a gentle kiss.

Cordelia looked at the stranger suspiciously,

"Who are you?" She gasped for hair, still feeling weak.

Laura, "I'm your grandmother, Laura," she gave her a soft smile as she was stroking her soft hair.

Cordelia "Lie! She was dead a long time ago! Let me go! Noah!" She screamed for Noah, while Laura was trying to explain everything to her,

Robert helps the poor boy in his arms; Noah screamed until the morning. When Robert opened his eyes, he was gone.

Robert stood up immediately, stormed out of the room, searching for the boy; he found him, Cordelia, and Laura in the dining room. They were sitting like a real family. Robert gave them a warm smile sat beside Laura. It was the first time that he was accepted by Laura's family,

Noah was ignoring Cordelia, still mad at him, but he was answering the queen's questions nicely.

Cordelia was surprised to see him with a more muscular shape, sharp jawline, and soft black hair that reaches to his waist. He also had more abs on his chest, and the tone of his voice was lower.

Cordelia "Noah? I apologized!

Noah, "You always do as you wish and then apologize, I'm done with you, and I don't care about you anymore."

Laura chuckled, drinking her wine. "Noah, you rescued her. If you weren't there, she would be a beast by now"

Noah shrugged, "I did it for humanity, I don't care about her, or that boy Nilsson" he stood up.

"I should leave now

Cordelia furrowed her brows. "I can't do it without you."

Noah: "But you never listen to me!"

Cordelia looked down at her food, embarrassed.

"I do, I swear," she pouted innocently. It melts Noah's heart.

Noah, "Fine, I help you to find Nilsson," he mutters proudly, kept eating.

Laura looked over at them, let out a sigh of relief.

"Now that you two are safe, I shall get back," Laura admitted.

Cordelia's eyes got watery. "Please. Grandma, I had no one before, Father couldn't spend time with me, and mother, she has gone before I can see her, I need you by my side, just a little more.

Cordelia's confession made Laura smile. She reached out at her, stroked her grandchild's cheek.

"If I don't get back, Kat can't go to heaven, although you were strangling me last night, remember?" She laughed, Cordelia blushed at this.

"I didn't know it was you," she said, pouted again. Noah chuckled.

Noah, "I don't know who made your grandchild so spoil!" He wrinkled his nose

Laura chuckled, and Robert pulled out his sword, made everyone gaze over at him.

He took a step back smelled something.

Robert, "Brenner is here!" He gasped in shock.

Everyone stood up and stepped into Robert, looking here and there to see what is happening...
