Prologue

He suddenly dropped me like I was made of fire, flicking his hand as he backed away from me, two other demons stepping forward to take his place. One of his demon lackeys stepped forward pushing me hard, my body slamming against the wall and bouncing off like I was a bouncy ball. And as my body fell forward, the demon who pushed me caught me by the throat like Riorson had done, but unlike Riorson the hold was much tighter. I knew I would get bruises from Riorson, but this demon just guaranteed those bruises to be much darker and nasty looking.
A choked scream left my lips as I fought against him, my eyes flicking toward the man who was slowly inching for the door of the cabin. "Riorson..."
"Beg, Amicus Ad Aras." My brows knit at the words, he rarely ever called me that and I could never spell it the right way to find out its meaning or origin. But I know the words were reserved for serious moments he wanted me to truly agree to something. His voice was low and his eyes turning purple as the blue and red continued to battle for dominance as the primary eye color. "Beg me for your life and I might just let you live. Beg and I'll call them off. Beg me, Amicus Ad Aras." But it sounded like he was begging me instead.
"I'll never beg you." I choked out. "What are you planning to do to me if I don't, huh? Rape me? Torture me? Or are you planning to kill me like your father did your mother?"
Riorson pinched the bridge of his nose, eyes closing as he did so. When he opened them again the crimson had won dominance over his eye color and I knew the demon had taken over. I knew I had fucked up. My mouth slacked as I stared at him, there wasn't much of a physical change but rather a mental. My breath caught in my throat as his eyes locked with my own. "Ghost..."
At his name he smirked, voice purring out. "Kitten..."
"Ghost, I'm so sor-"
"Fucking shut up." He growled, stepping forward, a fire blazing in his eyes.
