CHAPTER FORTY-FIVE.

At Nightfall under the heavy rain, the day Dimitrix had been waiting for and could no longer wait for, he and Erik set out to follow Elvira.

And there she was in the middle of nowhere dressed in complete black opposite another demon.

The atmosphere wasn't pleasant not even one bit yet neither of the two feared.

"Higher Demon Elvira, this lowly demon got you the poison you instruct me to bring."

On one feet, he handed to her the bottle containing the poison.

"You did well." She praise him.

"That's why you need to trust me.Why do you want to suddenly end him?You had carried a thing for him for centuries,why now when he made you his fiancee--"

"SHUT UP!!!" She growled. "What if am about to get engaged?Is not like he loves me, i know he's still in love with that blue haired girl.I hate her!!" She let out a wicked laughter that echoed through the entire forest."I will let them both witness what is pain and i will let that filthy girl watch the man she loves die in my arms and vice versa--"

"I don't know when a demon started to love." Erik voice perk in as he and Dimitrix made their presence known shocking both the demons.

"Ow!!" A sinister smile spread across her lips. "Look who is wandering here by this hour of the night. You just made my work more easier." She laughs.

"Kill me?? don't you love me anymore, dear Elvira?" Dimitrix asked with a sardonic smile that across his lips.

She scoff. "Don't put on that fake face. I hate it!!!"

"But you once loved it....and you once loved him. what changed??" Erik gave her a cheesy smile. "Love? Love makes one stupid and turns you demons into weakling-"

"WHAT!!!!" She roared. "Who are you calling weakling you stupid human!!"

"Shouldn't i call you that?A human, after all you are no longer as strong as a demon."

Elvira flared up."What do you know?You're just a stupid human!!" She yells and drew out her scythe as her follow demon does the same.

Erik eyes turned bloodshot and he drew out his scythe.

"Highest Demon Erik!!" The lower demon screamed in horror.

"I knew something was off about you but I can't just put my hands round it, it will be my pleasure to fight with you....ahhhh!!" She rushed at him, rising her scythe to stab him but he blocked her attack and he kicked her that sent her flying.

"You're strong!" Elvira admitted as she was thrown off her feet.

"I know, i did not lose my power just like you did!!"

She grits her teeth in rage as she got to her feet.

Due to his fast reflex, he reached for her first and smashed her hand with his boot earning a painful scream.

He yanked her by the hair and twisted her wrist, breaking her bone.

"You're no match for me!!.This is not my battle."

And he flung her away as she hits her back hard against the tree.

She spit out black blood as Dimitrix came running at her.

She cracked a smile and yanked Dimitrix by the hair and kicked him across the face with her knee, letting him fall to the muddy ground, groaning in pain.

"We demons are more stronger than you humans,we are ten times better than you both in intelligence, reflexs and strength. We know the beginning or should I say we're there in the beginning of this world and we will be there at the end. So do you possibly think you have a chance against me." And she stab him with her claws as he scream in agony. "Poor you! You could've posses the same ability as i but you chose to stab me at the back!!" With hatred for him, she grab him and landed a powerful slap at his cheek causing warm blood to come out from his mouth.

She threw him on the dirty ground and step hard on his chest."You deceived me, used me and you think I would ever forgive you???YOU PLAYED WITH MY HEART!!" She matched him harder drawing blood from his chest. "And today am going to play with yours by poisoning you with this." She swing the bottle in the air. "How would it feels to kill the one you love with the same....agh!!!"

A loud shrill escape her lips as she was stabbed on her leg.

Dimitrix pushed her aside and both his hands collides and 'BOOM!'.

Elvira collided with the tree, tearing it down due to the amount of fire that accumulated from his hands.

Elvira mouth fell open."The red stones!You have it in your hands don't you? I will kill you and have it!!"

"You will be the only one that will die in my hands!!!!!" He growls.

Elvira wasn't given the chance to be amazed by the way he moved along with her regardless of how fast she was.

'Did Dimitrix ever had this strength in him'.

She truly underestimated him or was she that weak???

She decided not to run but instead confront him and she lurched forward attacking him aggressively.

Meanwhile, Dimitrix dodged every of her attacks as lighting and fire spark out from his body with every attack he made.

Elvira ended up greatly wounded by him and she fell to the ground panting heavily ."I loved you up till this moment but you never even felt a thing why??".

She questioned at the verge of tears.

"You shouldn't be tearing up when you know it would not save you, Emperor Dimitrix is not a merciful Lord, you know right??" Erik interrupts,tossing other Demon's head on the ground.

"Dimitrix, Dimitrix....why her??Why do you love her??"

He paused."If not her then who else?" He questioned back.

He turned to face Erik. "Erik??" He called.

Without being told, he already knew what to be done and he nod his head in understanding.

Dimitrix started walking away leaving Erik to end it.

Erik rose his scythe and 'SLASH SLASH!'

He beheaded her as her black blood spill over him.

Earlier at the dining table before Dimitrix and Erik had murdered Elvira.

Aurora and Susanna sat at the dining table where different delicacies of delicious dishes was placed in front of them.

"What's with the meal?Are we celebrating something??".

Aurora asked coldly.

Susanna shivers in feign. "I don't know who between you and the Lord who is more scarer." She huffed and picked up her cutlery.

Aurelia proceed to clomp her way into room at the appropriate time with Hiro behind."What do you think you're doing, Susanna!!".She rants."Do you want to turn my brother's Palace into a food inn!!!!"

"Hey!You don't have to cause a scene because of this!Besides we are family, my daughter is the soon to be Queen--"

Aurelia interrupts angrily. "Your daughter not you!!My brother hasn't even being engaged to her so that makes you two a mere guest, don't go around acting like you belong here!"

Susanna scoffs in disbelief and slammed her cutlery on the table."WHAT!!"

Aurelia lips curve into a smirk."

"Am certain you haven't gone deaf milady. Erik!!!!" She called as Ms.Nora quickly ran and bow.

"Mr.Erik went out with his Lord."

"Then I want you to inform those who this hooligan paid to renovate this palace to come back here and fix this mess back to it's original form. NOW!!" Not being told twice, Nora nod and ran off.

"AURELIA!!!!" Susanna spring to her feet hastily, upsetting the table. "Hooligan?--

"Aurelia?" She scoffed. "Have you no respect? How dare you call me just Aurelia, do you think we are in the same rank for you call me by just my name!!!!Just because you stay here doesn't make you're a royal blood.... YOU'RE. STILL. AN. HOOLIGAN!!" Aurelia emphasize those words slowly so it will get into her damn head.

Susanna hand itch, wanting to lay her hand on her and in an instant she took a long strode to Aurelia and. ....'SLAP!!!!'.

Leaving her fingers print on her cheek.

Aurelia held her cheek in great shock.

'This was the possibly the first time in a long time someone had laid a hand on her and that was the person she hated the most Her Mother'

Hiro was about to retaliate but Aurelia beat him to it and gave Susanna a pimp slap across the face.

"WHAT RIGHT DO YOU HAVE?ARE YOU MY MOTHER!!!!" She roared.

Susanna held her cheek, humiliated. "Y...You will regret this.I will make you pay!" And she aggressively brushed past her and storm off.

Eleanor who was peeping at them all, watching the drama was also wondering if it was still right to have her dinner in such frightening atmosphere that she suddenly bumped into an infuriated Bull.

"You!!.I thought you were leaving?what you still doing here!!!" Susanna yelled, unleashing her rage on poor Eleanor.

"I don't have to answer to you, Milady" Eleanor answered, looking her straight in the eyes without backing down.

She scoffed. "Such nerves-"

"Likewise," Aurelia chime in as Hiro follows behind."If anyone has to leave, it's you!Get lost!!"

Humiliated, Susanna scorned at her and storm off.

After she was gone, Aurelia glared at Eleanor who stood before her.

"Don't think i accepted you just because i defended you, i did no such thing isaid that so she would get away!!" She said hoarsely and was about to walk away when Eleanor spoke.

"I never had a high expectation for you. So don't keep your hopes high thinking I would be grateful or I would be feeling bitter by your cruel words. Am not so naive, excuse me." And she exit out of the room.

"Argh!!" Aurelia tug her hair in frustration."Why am I surrounded by such women-"

"I think you should be kind to Eleanor." Hiro suggested.

She paused and glared at him."What?What did you just say?"

"You shouldn't be rude to her, she did nothing wrong."

Anger and bitterness sting her throat like pepper. "Are you seriously taking her side???"

"What no!"

"No?no!but that's what I think you're doing.'You shouldn't be rude to her, she did nothing wrong' "She said mimicking his words in a ridicules way that pissed him off. "That sounds like someone who is supporting another lady instead of who he's in love with. You know what that is called? cheating and backstabbing!!"

Hiro brows furrow in confusion. "To make things clear am supporting no one, only what's right .The problem is you-"

"Me?"

"You are too insecure and if you can't trust me than what do we call this relationship!!".

With those words he walked off, leaving Aurelia alone.
