Chapter Two

The Prince of Heavenly realm, Wong Wei was happy with living the luxurious lifestyle, but he somewhat felt claustrophobic, he didn't get as much freedom as the demonic realm did and he felt as though he was missing out on a lot around the other realms.

'What am I thinking? Why am I jealous of others when all they want is to be in my place?' Wong Wei would ask himself.

The things he saw, that he wished he could participate in, when Wong Wei was on his daily duties sometimes with Li Jing was too many to count but all he could do was watch from afar. Though if he had a choice, Li Jing wouldn't be his first choice, he had his heart set on someone else. It was because of his parents and their traditional ways that are making him have an arranged marriage.

Although he had seen Jiao Long a few times while on his duties, he never believed he'd fall for a guy. He had his eyes set on another female in the Bird realm but that chance was destroyed after she rejected him.

'You're out of my league' She'd told him. It had taken him a few hundred years to get over that, which was around the same time when his heart changed the algorithm.

Each time when Wong Wei was on his duties and he would see Jiao Long, but couldn't get close to him, at least it wasn't until the first gathering when all realm leaders and the next generation were under one roof. As everyone entered the Prince of Heavenly scanned the grand hall, he noticed the Prince of Darkness had attended. His heart's rhythm quickened, his hairpin began to have a subtle glow. Something that no female had ever made happen. As each member of the realm took it in turns to give their blessings. Jiao Long was the last one. They gave their blessings so quickly and left leaving next to no time to have a conversation, so Wong Wei immediately made for the gates. He thought he was going to miss them. Though he wasn't sure if that was a good thing, as he couldn't think of how to start a conversation with him.

After he spoke to them, Wong Wei felt content and more confused than ever. He noticed that Zhang Ming had pulled Jiao Long away quicker than usual. He felt happy that Jiao Long looked back before he left, it made his heart skip a beat. He had spent weeks trying to look for him, to talk to him alone, but neither of them was rarely alone. When Wong Wei managed to get close to Jiao Long , he would always be with Zhang Ming or the Demon King. Wong Wei soon realised there was only a small part of Jiao Long's life where he was left alone and he knew he had to play it tactically.

Then Wong Wei spent weeks trying to time his duties to tie-in with seeing the Prince of Darkness alone. Little did they both know that when they discreetly met-up they were not as discreet as they believed. Zhang Ming had connections with the leader of the Bird realm, he made a deal with her to spy on them.
