Chapter One

Centuries ago there were only five realms that existed, the Heavenly, Demonic, Cultivation, Bird and Water realm. The four realms were very traditional and always contributed towards any events. However the Demonic realm felt that everytime they presented themselves they always felt shunted out. Just because they wanted to do things differently and stray away from tradition. The Demon realm preferred to marry who they love, whereas the others kept to tradition and arranged marriages based on who would be a more powerful couple. It usually was the highest honour of either realm that was deemed lucky to keep the peace between realms. This feud between the Heavenly and the Demonic realm continued on through thousands of years. One day Wong Wei the Prince of the Heavenly realm was chosen to marry the beautiful Li Jing who was the Princess of the Cultivation realm. As they grew up, they were given specific jobs to be responsible for and now they had to put it into practice. Go from realm to realm to either collect or convey messages.

When Wong Wei went to the Demonic realm, he met and spoke to Jiao Long, the son of the Demon King. Wong Wei thought he would be rude and obnoxious like his father, but Jiao Long was almost the opposite. Wong Wei's heart beated differently but he took no notice of it as he believed it as nerves. It wasn't until Wong Wei left that Jiao Long himself felt a small jolt, but he thought he just needed some food and drink. He noticed Zhang Ming who was his future queen coming, he walked gladly with her talking about the possible changes they could do when they reign the demonic realm but something felt off and he didn't know why.

A few days later the news was spread that Wong Wei, Prince of Heavenly realm and Li Jing, Princess of Cultivation were due to be married. The King and Queen of Heavenly realm held gatherings once a week to discuss details and accept offerings of blessings

The first gathering was the most important as it was just the leaders of each realm and the next generation. They all came with no less than ten of their guards. The son of the Demon King Jiao Long came with Zhang Ming, his future queen at his side. However when he sat down and saw the heavenly Prince, he scowled but felt his heart had changed its algorithm. What he felt for Zhang Ming was quickly fading out. He chose to ignore it throughout the celebration, instead he turned to face Zhang Ming and he smiled "Tāmen hěn bānpèi bùshì ma?"(他們很般配不是嗎?), Jiao Long asked quietly. She nodded gently, placed her hand on his and kissed him on cheek. His heart would usually pound at the innocent contact but it barely pumped. It did not go unnoticed, Zhang Ming sensed a shift in him, but she ignored it, pretending that it wasn't happening so she could stay by his side.

As they both joined the queue to give their offerings and blessings, Zhang Ming saw that Jiao Long couldn't keep his eyes off of Wong Wei. She had her suspicions, but she didn't want to make a scene so she waited until they were done. As they walked out of the gates onto the courtyard Wong Wei caught up with them. Jiao Long turned on the spot to face Wong Wei, and there was a short silence.

"Wong Wei," Jiao Long said, bowing as did Zhang Ming. "Did we forget something?" Jiao Long asked.

"No you didn't, Jiao Long. I just felt like your sector doesn't get much gratitude and I would like you to be more involved. I feel you might have some good ideas to bring to the table" Wong Wei suggested.

"Thank you, we will consider your offer," Zhang Ming responded, as Jiao Long seemed to be in a trance. Zhang Ming had to practically yank him awake to move.

Jiao Long looked back before they flew off to the demonic realm.
