Jones(Abbadon) POV
'Okay, let us go, it is now or never.' Susan says as she heaves a very deep sigh.
It is clearly obvious that she is very nervous.
'You do not need to be nervous, I will be by your side all through it.' I say to her as I hold her hands and turn her back around to stare at her reflection in the mirror once again.
'Okay, thanks for the attempt to comfort me but I am not nervous, and why are you..' She stops with her question as she stares wide eyed at her reflection in the mirror.
'Wow.' Susan exclaims as she stares at her glowing skin.
,Abbadon, what have you done to my skin? I mean, it looks really nice' she says, still in awe.
Humans are just so easy to please.
'You can touch it.' I say as I continue to stroke her hand, making the mark glow even more.
Upon my words, Susan touches the mark with her finger tips.
'I can't believe I have a tattoo, one that glows too. My mum would kill me if she sees me with a tat.' She says excitedly but her tone changes to a solemn one when she speaks about her mum.
I can see that she misses her mum very much.
'The good news is, your mum is not here to scold you, which means, you can have as many tattoos as you desire.' I say to her, trying to cheer her up.
Now, I am very certain that I am on the verge of going crazy.
When did I start to care about a humans and their emotions? I can't seem to even believe my own self. I know my demon soul and the mate bond has something to do with my emotions but very deep inside of me, I also know that I enjoy the feel of everything.
'Hmmm.. but hey, why has it stopped glowing?' She asks, staring at me with confused eyes.
'It will only glow when our souls connect.' I explain to her but the confusion in her eyes still does not clear up.
'What do you by mean our souls connecting?' She ask as she turns around fully to face me.
I must admit she is looking really nice.
I do not know where these feelings of deep dominance is generating from but I want to keep her locked in the room, away from any other eyes.
'You see, as I told you earlier, this mark is just a partial sign of identification to help convince my subjects.
In order for the mate bond to fully accept this and get convinced that we are indeed fond of each other, I connected our souls, just like what happens when mates copulate.' I explain calmly to her.
I just can't seem to get annoyed at her. Even though she infuriates me sometimes, I still find myself fascinated by her, I still find myself wanting to be good to her always.
'Oh, so what you mean to say is that, you are supposed to give me your mark, that you are supposed to copulate with me but for your own reasons, you refuse to do that and in order to avoid the wrath of the mate bond and also, to gain the appreciation of your subjects, you have resulted to tricking the mate bond and our souls.' She says as she cocks her head to the side with a stupid smirk on her face.
It is like she has just won some world renounced award.
'Yeah, kind of but when you put it that way, you make it seem bad.' I say, straightening the collar of my white buttoned up shirt.
I check my suit in the mirror and find it as perfect as I want it to be.
I may be an ancient prince of darkness but when it comes to clothes and things I use on my body, I prefer quality and as bad as I want to deny it, I think the humans are a bit of fascinating creatures.
They use the knowledge my father give to them to create things that amazes even a demon like me.
I choose to use their technologies and other inventions in my realm because I find those toys just so intriguing plus as a demon who has lived for many centuries, I like to always explore new things as a way to keep myself entertained and updated.
'And since when did you care about you having to do bad and unlawful things?' Susan says teasingly as she seductively runs a finger down my neck to my chest.
A shiver runs through me as my body, soul and mind begins to respond to her touch.
Unlike humans, when a demon finds his or her mate, he or she becomes so connected with him or her that even the smallest emotion felt by his or her mate is transmitted to him or her and smallest touch of a mate can make you as vulnerable as you have never been.
Her hands begins to travel down my chest but I immediately grasp her hands to prevent her from going any further.
'Stop kitten, do not play with fire or you might get burnt.' I tell her as I stare deep into her soul. I search and search very deep inside her soul and the only thing I come across is pure and unfiltered desire, a desire, burning so deep in her soul.
'Oh, what if I want the fire to consume me? Or perhaps, is the big bad demon king personally afraid of getting burnt by the burning fire?' She asks teasingly through lowered lashes.
I do not know if this is the bond working or if it is really her baring and offering her whole self to me.
'You do not know what you are getting yourself into Susan, the outcome of what you are searching for is no child's play.' I tell her, my voice turning deep.
I seem to not have any control over my body. Now, I am hundred percent sure that it is the mate bond that is manipulating our bodies, it is making us loose control over ourselves.
'And who said I am afraid of danger?' Susan says in a very seductive voice that makes my member make a quick twitch.
'We are not ourselves, it is the damn mate bond. I need you to stay focused and concentrate on gaining power over yourself.' I tell her, looking intently in her eyes.
I am trying to gain control but it does not help that she is running her tongue along my neck.
The mate bond is doing this because of the partial mark I have given her and the fact that I made my soul connect with hers.
The mate bond thinks that since our souls have connected, we need to merge and become one and that means, sharing of power and that is exactly what I would not want to do.
I think the bond is not one to fool very easily but if I can let Susan come back to herself, then everything will be fine, at least for now I think.
I have never had to try this method of partial marking so I do not really know how far it can pull us through, how much it can help us fool the mate bond.
I know it is quite unreasonable for me to try something I do not really know the outcome of on Susan but instead of marking her completely and merging with her soul, I think it is only better that we do this.
'Mmm no, we are ourselves. Tell me you do not want it, tell me you do not desire for me, tell me you are not burning for me as I am burning for you, mmmm tell me mate.' She says in an alluring tone as she pops open few of my shirt buttons and continue to run her hands up and down my bare chest and abs.
I know I have to tell her to stop, I know I have to be the strong one and tell her to get over the manipulation of of the mate bond but my hands and my whole body seems to have a whole new mind of their own.
I hold her hands and pull her close to my body as she lets out a light sultry scream that makes me go crazy.
'You have unleashed the demon and you have to get ready to bare the outcome mate.' I say and I realize I am not speaking in my normal voice but rather, in my dominating demon voice.
My mind is shouting, telling me to stop, telling me that what is about to happen will not be something really good but my body and soul says otherwise.
I put my lips on the partial mark I have given Susan and begin to suck on it.
'Mmm.. hmm.' Susan gives a sexual hum and that encourages me to even suck on it more harder.
I know it is going to leave a hickey but right now, that is less of my worries.
Sucking on the mark I have given her makes me feel so satisfied.
I feel like I own her whole mind, body and soul, the feeling of claiming her as mine begins to get intoxicating that all sense of caution flies out of my head and moves right through the window.
'You are mine, woman. You are mine to mark, mine to claim and mine to play with.' I say dominantly as I hastily crush my lips on hers.
We kiss very aggressively and hungrily, it is like we are wild starved animals, finally getting a taste of flesh.
Somewhere deep in my mind, I keep getting the warning that we should stop but the mate bond has gained too much control over my body and soul that I cannot even find myself to protest, the overwhelming manipulation of the mate bond makes me to just want to give in to the consuming desires.
I guess I should have not partial marked her.
'Yes my king, take control over me.' Susan whispers in my ears, biting my earlobe which sends a shiver down my spine. I like this bold side of her. The mate bond can indeed do things to a person.
'Yes babe.' I say as I grind my crotch on her covered private part. I aggressively grab her fleshy backside and squeeze to which she lets out a delightful moan.
I know she is enjoying this as much as I am.
'Mmm I like that, do not stop. Yes, touch me.' Susan whispers and this time, I am totally loosing it.
I turn her around to face the mirror and see her reflection as I move my hands to her private part.
I begin to rub her as she begins to writhe under my touch. I continue to rub more faster and faster until she screams and comes all over my fingers.
The scent of her arousal awakens all my senses and focuses them on only the thought of making her mine, the thought of marking her. Her next words though, helps me to come down from my high.
'Mm yess, mark me.' Susan says and that word alone finally releases me from the emotional chains of the mate bond.
'Hey Susan, come back to reality.' I speak firmly in my demon voice which seems to work.
'God! What did we just do?' Susan says as she finally comes back to herself.
'Hey, it was not our faults. It was the doings of the mate bond so do not blame yourself because we do not have time for that. Just go in there and clean yourself.' I tell her as I point to the bathroom.
She nods but before she goes, she stares at my bulging member which is straining against my slacks and I see a deep blush appear on her cheeks which only makes me smirk.
As she heads to the bathroom, I use my demon abilities to help deflate my boner. Even though the mate bond was responsible for our acts, I can't deny I enjoyed every bit of it.
'Okay, I am ready.' Susan exclaims as she comes out of the bathroom.
She still has a blush on her cheeks. I catch her as she steals a glimpse at my member, probably checking to see if I still have the bulge.
'Oh, you do not need to be shy of what happened. After all, we are both adults and even though the mate bond was responsible for our acts, we both agree we enjoyed ourselves and that is where it ends.' I tell her firmly.
For once, I think I feel her hurting but she quickly masks it.
My words may hurt her but I am doing everything for our own good or so I think.
'Since we are all set, let us not waste anymore time, it is time for you to see the abyss and your people.' I say as I open the door for her to walk through.
I put my arms around her as we walk through the corridors.
We meet a whole lot of the lost souls who serve in the castle and they bow down their heads as a sign of respect and acknowledgement.
We finally reach the grand door of the room where we are supposed to meet the demons and lost souls.
I hope this thing goes on well. If it was up to me, I would not really care about their acceptance and acknowledgment of my mate but they have to accept and acknowledge her as my mate or else, their rejection can lead to unwelcome dangers.
It has never happened that subjects would reject the mates of their kings but then again, I am the first demon king to have two mates in a lifetime and the only demon king to be paired with a human.
Heaving a big sigh, I place my hand at the lower back of Susan and push open the grand door.
I can sense her nervousness. I rub her back gently to ease her nerves, silently telling her that I would be right there to support her.
And now, I think I am beginning to understand why James is so whipped by that human toy of his.
'Oh, look who finally decided to grace us with his dark grace!' Mammon, the demon of greed exclaims and I just know that this meeting is going to be a stressful one.
I hold Susan's trembling hands as Mammon begins to take predatory steps towards us, staring at her with calculating eyes.
'Mmm a human mate, I see.'
