Once upon a time...

Rumour has it that a certain king became so desperate that he blindly made a dangerous pact with a seductive demon goddess who ruled the realm of 'Yonder'.
She bore him a son who would, in time, fulfil the 'Dark Prophecy'.

But...

What if falling in love with a maiden of pure heart and clear conscience could free him from the overwhelming darkness buried deep within?

'My god! What happened just now?' she asked herself while pressing her fabric rigidly against her breast cage.

She retreated two steps away from him as she reminisced about the event of barely a few seconds earlier.

'It—he almost had me? The devil himself? I—I would have easily given myself to him?'

Observing her confusion, Briceus gave off a curt smirk before standing up.

"I wouldn't have guessed that you'll be a woman of low esteem and easy to use, Elizabeth. Perhaps I was wrong in thinking you were different"

"Your Majesty, I —"

"I'll have you know that I have no interest in your lowly unattractive body, Elizabeth so you don't have to attempt to hide so much and appear so startled"

'Lowly body? He said this to me?'

". . . If those are the foolish thoughts flying around your tiny skull, you would be damned to imagine such because I have met far more beautiful maidens but you are most certainly the one who has impressed me the least in character" Elizabeth felt spited even though she hated herself for weakly yielding to his charms just now.

"If I were so lowly to the king and if I am everything you've described me to be so far, then I will advise that His Majesty should quickly demand a refund from my family and hand me back to them!" 
Briceus was unmoved by her bold utterances. 

All the while she had spoken, he had his eyes glued to her lush pale strawberry lips which for some reason had begun to lure him in.

The Dark Lord's Maiden

In orderly succession, everyone had long dismissed themselves from the imperial dining space, save for the person of His Majesty the king, Briceus and the woman he'd invited to dine specially with him.

By this time of the morning, the cool wind which kept thrusting into the dining space now portrayed an element of being seemingly humid; not a fault on nature's part since the downpour ought to be setting in, in about a week or two. This was welcome news for Elizabeth who always looks forward to staring at those little droplets she refers to as heaven's gift to striving vegetation.

Currently, a discomforting and eerie silence now enveloped the air within the dining space. This aura of awkward chillness was the kind that seemed brutally coldish and targeted at crumbling to nought, Elizabeth's willpower; the predator being Briceus. No one spoke. Briceus was very much invested in his reading as though he had no one nearby to bother his thirst for privacy.
