On My Way: The Demon King Made Me His

Chapter 191: No more doubts



Chapter 191: No more doubts

"What?" Everyone was shocked. 

"Your highness, please give it a thought before you arrive at a decision to give up your throne," everyone suggested. But Empress Lihua looked at her son, Demon King Huo and Her best friend Queen Rivera. 

"A change is necessary, I don't have a heir to succeed my throne, now or later, I feel sure that am making a right decision," Empress Lihua said. To that the crowd had nothing to say. "I will soon hold an assembly in the Celestial Palace, for all the leaders, kings and queens," Empress Lihua informed everyone. "There, we will make a decision l," she said stopped. "I do not wish to talk about it right now," Empress Lihua ended the discussion. Demon King Huo understood that no matter what it is, Empress Lihua will never accept Demon Realm as a safe place. 

Huo smiled and looked at the people who all agreed to her. Everyone raised and thanked King Aenon and Huo. 

"If not for you two, heaven would have turned into hell honestly," some shared their opinions while others opposed saying. "How can we trust King Aenon? What if he join hands with Demons always? His daughter is rumoured to be named a Demon Queen already. What should we trust? But this is the sole opinion of Beast King and his followers. Huo remained silent having no will support or encourage anyone. He had asked to serve food for all. 

After some time, Huo left the court and walked back to his chamber soon as he watched Aqua leaving the court too. He wanted to spend some time with her. Alone.

Aqua undressed, and got into water pool, to rest and take a bath. She wanted to wash up and have a fresh start. 

But her thoughts kept wandering back to past. Her days at school with the only best friend she ever made in life. How they first met.

********

"Hello, am Volca," she bowed to her and her father. It was unexpected of her to do it. Volca was wearing a black plain gown and her hair tied up with a purple ribbon.

"Aqua," she smiled and shook hands with her.

"Oh my god, you're the princess aren't you?" she said in surprise looking from head to toe. Aqua's father laughed loud.

"You girls take care of each other, never care about what clan you're from," he said to the girls as he understood Volca is from the Demon Clan. He knows that Master Bo Hai admit students from all the clans but he got to witness it this time. Aenon was happy and proud.

Volca tagged along with Aqua and they both went inside the school to meet their Shifu.

They bowed in front of him.

"Stand up," he ordered the girls. "Huo, Ash, take the girls to their accomodation. Give them the uniforms. Ask them to come back to the main hall after lunch," he ordered and left his place.

********

But it did not go as expected love began to effect their relationship. It made Aqua even wonder at some moments about whether she made the right choices.

********

I didn't do anything, I won't, I can't, " she sobbed.

"Just stop crying and tell me," Huo said to her.

She didn't explain and buried her face in his chest and hugged him as she went on weeping. That was unexpected, and for him that was little intimidating. But he just let get. He didn't want make her feel bad again about herself.

Aqua came in search of Volca at the wrong time and witnessed the intimacy. She held back and left silently. Something hurt inside. Still unaware of her feelings. Since she saw something she wasn't meant to. She sealed her lips and tried to forget what she saw. She didn't wish to get in the middle and disturb them. But she couldn't understand Huo. Being with her and then seeing him with Volca. She couldn't tell to whom he was being close and to whom he was being only a friend. She was confused and went numb at the same time.

Yet she was relieved to see Volca back at school who disappeared for a whole day, without news. She has been worrying about it and it turned alright. But something felt off for her. She felt empty all of a sudden and decided to walk around.

*********

"If I go back to this day, and make amendments, could things have happened in a different way?" Aqua asked herself. 

"No," Aqua heard a voice. She turned around. She saw the Demon king, taking his clothes off and stepping into the pool, moving closer to her and resting next to her. Aqua smiled. 

"Even if you gave up on me and sacrificed your feelings for her, Aqua, trust me, I would not have left, I would not have accepted her, I would not dare give up on my love I always had for you, and always will have," he said to her and looked into her eyes. It was very comforting for Aqua to hear it, feeling assured again and again. He ran his fingers on her cheek and leaned closer. 

Huo touched her lips with his. He took her lower lip and kissed her. He wanted to be alone with her for some time after all the stressful and life threatening movements that was happening around them. He wanted comfort, he wanted peace, he wanted her more than anything, without restrictions, without rules, without objections. Huo put his arms around her waist and pulled her closer. He had already asked the maids to leave the chamber. Aqua smiled while she kept her hands on his muscular chest. He had a small wound caused from Tai's golden sword. 

"You need treatment,' Aqua said to Huo pulling back, looking at him and hugged him. But instead Huo lifted her in his arms and walked out of the pool. 

"I need your treatment more than anything," he said and began to tease her. Aqua laughed. "You come up with really cheesy lines these days Huo'er," she made fun of him.

"Let's see how long you can hold this time," he said putting her down on the bed and got on top of her. And he began kissing her again while she dug her nails on his back, responding to him. Heart beating louder, voice escaping from their mouths, and hands trembling. There were wrapped up in their own world of happiness. "Huo'er, tell me you love," she said looking into his.
