"I wasn't..."  She backed away, offering him a reluctant smile.  "It's alright, Levi.  I just wanted to know."

"You know what it means to be his bride?  It's not some special wonderful marriage filled with love and happiness, Solace.  It's awful pain and hurt.  Every hundred years this happens, and the council knows it's awful, but they do it anyways.  What's one useless woman's pain compared to peace for the whole town?  Nothing, that's what.  The Demon King's going to fuck you raw and fill your belly with some monster baby.  Except it's not birth you go through, it's being eaten from the inside out.  That demonspawn's going to gnaw at your insides once it grows.  Slow at first, until it gets hungrier and hungrier, then it's going to pop out one day, eat right through your stomach, and devour the rest of you as its first meal.  What do you think of that?"

Solace shivered.  It sounded awful, but it was just a story, right?  She didn't now much about the Demon King or the monstrous host, but she'd read a little about them in the church library books.  Every so often an ogre or a troll wandered into Glenwood and wanted to purchase something from the market, too.  All the townspeople quieted, trying to pretend they weren't scared, but it was so easy to see through their act.  Solace might have been scared, too, but the monsters looked so fascinating.  Once, except she probably imagined it, she even thought one smiled at her.  A crooked, wicked smile, but not altogether unpleasant.  A friendly gesture from a creature completely unused to friendliness.  Or that's what she wanted to think.

"If I want to take you right here and now, by force or whatever, I could, you know?" Levi said, ignoring her shaking.  "It's not like anyone cares, anyways.  If I raped you, so what?  They're sending you to the Demon King, so you're as good as dead already."

He loomed over her, pressing closer.  His boots crunched against the brittle straw with every step he took, ominous and dark.  He stared down at her, his expression a mix of taboo excitement and fierce anger.

"I think I'm gonna do it," he said.  "I'll fuck you so hard you won't have room in your belly for any demonspawn.  And you know what?  He'll just try all the harder, over and over, and you'll scream.  I'll listen for it, Solace.  When the wind blows on a quiet night, I'll listen for your screams from their underground city and I'll smile."

"No," she said, smiling at him, trying to be happy.  Tears streamed down her cheeks and she shook her head.  "You don't mean that, Levi.  I'm so happy, though.  Really, I am.  I'm so happy that I can help Glenwood.  I'll gladly go to the Demon King for everyone.  I want to help."

"That's enough."

Father William walked into the stables.  Despite his need for a cane, he looked stately in his priest robes.  Straining to keep his back straight, he glanced over what was going on.

About the Author

C
erys has charted on numerous best sellers and hot new release lists internationally with multiple books.

She lives in the Greater Boston area in a small town in New Hampshire. She spends her days writing, reading, learning, and working. And maybe sometimes she flirts with the mailman. Some of her most favorite activities involve understanding and learning about emotions and relationships.

She adores pondering sexuality and sensualness. Most of her writing delves into this in some way, exploring reactions and relationships between different people. While she enjoys writing erotica and erotic romance, her goal is to also keep a certain literary appeal to the writing instead of something purely pornographic. Every story she writes has a delightful plot along with the more devious and delicious scenes we all want to read.

She prefers romance settings, with the occasional monster or fairytale. Her secret kinks include reluctance, interesting paranormal creatures, romance(even with monsters), and fun. She loves writing about all of these things, though very strongly acknowledges that fantasies are fiction and nothing more.
