"Hmm~" I smiled as I lace up my fingers with her and nuzzle her cheek
"So sweet, pure and submissive. Just like how I want my match is" I murmured as I make a little cut on her lily white skin while her sweet scented red blood trickles down on her rosy cheek before I get a taste of it
"And best of it, pureblood. They do keep their promise, right, princess?" I asked as she nods softly before I take her chin and look at her facial features closer and clearly
"You're very quiet, still scared of me, princess? If not, say something. I don't want my wife is very quiet and can't tell what she wants"
"I'm sorry" She muttered as her quivering, small, moist, soft, heart shaped blood red lips are kissed by my rough one
"It's not what I want to hear from you, but at least you said something" I said as a small grin is plastered on my lips
"I already know all about you" I said as put my hand on her waist before dance with her in a slow manner
"And I don't want you to be not happy with me"
"Why..."
"Pardon?" I asked as we keep dancing in the empty ballroom without any music
"Why they made a contract with you?"
"Don't ask me, ask them. I just do what they want and take my reward"
As we dancing in the room, I keep looking at her. Her silky, luscious white hairs and lily white skin are contradicting her violet-red eyes, rosy cheeks and red blood lips. Make her looks like a bisque doll especially how she's dressed like one.
"How old are you?"
"2200 years old or so, like, 22 years old in human world"
"Pedophile" She muttered as my laughs echoing the room
"My, so bold. Where is the quiet you?" I grinned as blush covers her cheeks
"I'm so sorry" She murmured
"It's okay" I replied as my hands are drawing blood on her hand
"Just don't you ever dare to make me angry again, chérie"
"I'm sorry" She muttered as I caress her jawline before kiss her roughly, dominate her mouth as she hugs my chest, use it as leverage
"Accepted" I replied as her cheeks are flushed red and her eyes are half-lidded while she pants quietly
"If you can't bear the kiss that you got, I warn you you'll be unconscious when I kiss you every morning"
"We, remember, Ten? She's our and you just take her when I'm not around?" He said as I just roll my eyes
"You're kind of in a busy schedule so I decided to help you by entertain out little princess"
"You made her scared" He said as he slaps my hand away and embrace her
"Your hand is bleeding. What did he do?"
"..." She looked at me before I nod softly, let her tell the truth
"He accidentally drew blood on my hand because I made him angry. But, nothing is wrong with it"
"Accidentally?" He glared at me as he hugs her more
"Oops? Maybe I was kind of overexcited?" I said as he just shrugs it off
"I'll escort you to your room and take care of your wound"
"What? Then why do we need servants? You can call one of them and they'll do it"
"Shut up" He said as we walk out from the ballroom with her
"Why are you touching my princess?
"She's mine too" I said as she just walks quietly in between of us
\=-\=-\=-\=-\=-\=
"Sit down" I said as she sits down before me as I touch her hand before clean it and close it with bandage
"Your hands are warm, too warm" She said as she gives a little squeeze
"Or your hands are just cold. You're from North, right?"
"Yes"
"Good place to hide a princess" I sighed before touch her hand slightly
"Are you afraid with us?" I asked, looking at her eyes
"I was"
"Now?"
"A little bit not"
"As least you're begin to not get scared by us anymore" I smiled
"You're very nice, thank you, and could you let me sleep?"
"She's right, let's sleep" He said as he lays on the bed while hugs her
"Seriously, Ten?"
"You need this too, right?"
"Yeah" I replied softly as I lay beside her, who is in between of us
"Sleep tight"
\=-\=-\=-\=-\=-\=
"Mama! Papa!" I yelled as I look around the estate and find her and Papa are covered in blood
"Lux..."
"What's happening?"
"Your grandparents had a contract with Devils and they said you're the sacrifice"
"What..." I mumbled
"They want you as their bride when your grandfather asked for immortality, intelligent, fame, beauty and wealth"
"When will they come?"
"Not long again" Mama replied as she covers my body with a fur coat
"Now run! Don't look back and just run" She said as I run as soil as possible from the estate to the snow covered land
"Where is she?"
"..."
"I said where is she?! Where's my bride?!" A man with black shirt and white ripped trousers asked as he looks behind their shoulder and see me runaway
"You let her away" He whispered angrily before he runs but pulled away by Mama and Papa
"Don't you ever touch her!" He yelled as the man stabs Mama's chest and take out her heart as Papa looking at her with tears
"Lucinda..."
"Now you, Lucius" He said as Papa ends up like Mama
"Tsk, if you know this would happen, why you made the contract with me" He said as he jumps out from the manor before teleport in front of me
"And you, come back to 'home' with me now" He said as he suddenly hugs me before all I see was darkness
\=-\=-\=-\=-\=-\=
"That's too much for her, Ten. She's still a teenager" I said as I look at the still sleeping Lux on his chest
"Well, she's cute and I want her now, unless you want her to be an old maiden in human world or keep being this pretty in our world" He said as he rolls his eyes as his hand involuntarily caress her hair
"Still" I replied
"You kidnapped her"
"You killed her parents!" I roared as he kept his smirk plastered on his cocky face.
"Correction, I did not kidnap her. I teennaped her" He smirked
"Whatever" I scoffed as I get out from her room
"You're just jealous, Taeyong. Admit it" He smiled cheekily as I slammed the door.
"I heard Ten Hyung teennapped our bride" Jisung said as I eat the food with curiosity of his statement
"What in the world is 'teennapped'?"
"Like a kidnap but teen version, I invented it"
"I want to meet her"
"Hey, pass me the salt"
"Isn't that sugar?"
"Well, I don't know. He does"
"But, I want more"
"No, you're still a child"
"Since when 2000 years old is a child?
"Hey! That's mine"
"Could you all just shut up and eat!"
"Sorry, Hyung"
"Sorry"
"Forgive us please"
"Hello" Ten smiled as a young girl stands beside him
"Is that her?"
"It is" He smiled as she twiddles her thumbs before look at us
"My name is Lux Weissmann, nice to meet you all" She said as she curtsies and look at us again
"Weissmann?"
"It's him, right? The one with grey eyes and long white hair"
"Adolf K. Weissmann. Yes, she must be his granddaughter"
"How's about you take a seat, Lux" Jaehyun said as he pats an empty seat between him and Kun
"Thank you" She said softly
"Are you going to just stare the plate? You can eat the foods too, you know?" Jaemin smirked as she stiffly eats her meal
"Do you know all of us?"
"Yes, I was told by Chittapon already"
"You mean Chittaprrr" Johnny whispered as he keeps his laugh well
"Shut up, that's my horse's name" Ten said as he hits Johnny
"You can call me Ten, Lux" He said as Lux, nods
"She looks like a bisque doll! Can I show her my collection later on, Hyung?" Chenle asked with a smile on his face as he looks at Lux.
"You can after both of you had your breakfast, Chenle" Doyoung said as he makes Chenle sit down
"Okay" He smiled and Lux looks at his face
He's a cute little boy. His hair is straight blonde and parted at his left side. He has a pretty chubby cheeks with high and sharp cheekbones and cute little eyes with a sweet smile. Pretty much is the only one who still showed his boyish side than the others, who is becoming or is a man now.
"Lux has finished her breakfast already, we'll go to my room now!" He said as he suddenly pulls me away and out from the room
"Yah! I didn't tell you can just take her, Chenle" Ten said as he suddenly stops Chenle and have me sitting on his shoulder
"Ten, let them go"
"Hyung..."
"You could be with her later" Taeil said as Ten puts me down slowly and Chenle pulls me into a room
"You have a lot of beautiful bisque dolls"
"Thank you" He smiled as I notice a mannequin
"Do you name them?"
"I do and that's my favourite, Regina" He said as I see the mannequin is sculptured really detail
"She's really beautiful"
"She is" He said as he sits down and drink some tea and cake
"Let's eat, Lux" He said as I nod before take a look at the mannequin for the last time when curiosity begin to take over me
'Was she a human?'
"She was"
"You read my mind?" I asked surprised
"Yes" He replied as he sips the tea peacefully
"She was a human. One of the most beautiful in her village"
"Then what happened?"
"She was actually our bride, but she keeps rebelling and we decide to make her like this when she cross her line" He replied as he shots me a warning look
"Do not you ever rebel against us and even do not do what we want or you will be another mannequin" He warned as I nod softly and eat the cake
"How old are you? Mine is 1700 or 17 in human world" He asked softly, changed the topic that we talked ago
"I'm 15"
"Younger than Jisung"
"How old is he?"
"16"
"Oh, just a year"
"You mean century?" He whispered quietly
"Would you tell me how was you are end up in here?"
"Um, basically I was kidnapped and my parents killed by Ten"
"Why am I not surprised?" He muttered as I suddenly on someone's arms
"I take her for now Chenle. So, talk to you never" Ten said as we're teleported to his room, I assume
"Why did you just go with him? You're supposed to be with me only!" He yelled as he traps me in between of his arms
"I-I ..." He grabbed both of my shoulder before lean on my neck
"Ten" I whimpered as he suddenly bites my neck, shoulder and collarbone, giving a lot of marks on my body
"It should be enough to show them that you are mine now" He said as he lets go of my shoulders before carry me to the bed and see me fall asleep
"You're lucky that I love you so much or else, you'll be like Regina already" I murmured as I caress her hair as I fall asleep
\=-\=-\=-\=-\=-\=
"Ten" I muttered he hugs me, make our noses touch because of the distance
"I'm sorry, I just want to have you for my own. I don't like it when the others are around you" He whispered as I can feel his sultry breath fanned my lips as he begin to get closer before kiss me, unlike what he did, with care and softly
"I just want you to be mine only"
"Grandpa Adolf made a contract with 18 of you, right?"
"Yeah"
"Then, I can't be yours only, but I can try my best to spend my time most with you" I replied as he hugs me really tight
"As long as I can always see you, it's okay with me" He whispered as he caresses my head softly and keep me well under his embrace, tightly but careful, as if I'm a bisque doll that can broken into pieces when touched
"I just hope to make a better impression for you, especially because how I kidnapped you after kill your parents" He muttered softly as I can see a hint of regret on his bright chestnut eyes, looking at me and begging a forgiveness for his sin
"Just one more chance and I can show you my real self, our real selves. I promise we won't kill you, as long as you can behave nicely, you won't be end up like her" He said softly before plants a soft kiss on my lips
"Is this really Hell?" I asked as I look outside of the room, how the sunshine shines through the window into my room, as if I'm in my own world
"If you think Hell is like the inside of volcano, then yes, this is Hell" Ten said softly as I do know this world is pretty much like human world
"I mean, I do want to use humans like when they're in human world, which is basically exhausting and killing you from inside and outside, right?" He said softly as I nod and follow him from the room
"Morning!" Jaehyun smiled with his deep dimples
"Hey for you too, Jaehyun"
"Morning" I smiled
"Aww, she's so cute" Jaehyun said as he suddenly have me in his embrace before let me go and notice my dress
"Isn't this what you wore yesterday?" He said as he puts his hands on my shoulders
"Yeah"
"Should we shopping for your clothes? You're living in here now" Jaehyun said as Ten suddenly slaps his hands away from me
"You shouldn't touch what is mine, Jaehyun"
"Sorry, Hyung. But she's our, remember? Nolens volens, you have to accept the fact that she's for all of us" Jaehyun said softly as he takes my hand carefully yet looking at Ten with a scowl before at me with a gentle smile
"Go to taken a bath, the valets are already prepared it for you. Just ask whichever of them and they will take you there. I will have some words with Ten for now, we will meet you later in dining room" He said as I nod softly and walk away from them
"How many?" I asked as I look at his eyes
"How much maybe that you mean, Jaehyun" He smirked
"Those are uncountable because how much I tasted her sweet skin last night"
"Yo-"
"Find a better way, will you? Even though, we're devils, it doesn't mean we have to finish all of these with violence. Some words can finish this easily if you use your head nicely, Hyung" WinWin said softly yet sternly while he grabs both of our hands
"Of course, a devil likes you must be really deceptive to the point where you can think we have to be smart with our words" Ten grumbled before takes his hand away from WinWin's grasp
"See you in breakfast, youngings" Ten said as he walks away from us
"I should go now, I don't want anymore fights around this palace. You should learn to be mature enough, especially because a lot of children are around" WinWin said as he looks at me once more before walks away
"What's wrong with people that are leaving me behind alone..." I muttered as I can only sigh and walk to dining room
\=-\=-\=-\=-\=-\=
"Thank you" I whispered slightly as the valets, more like living dolls, are nodding before sign me to sit down as they begin to take care of my appearance.
One of them took hairdryer before blow my hairs softly while brush it repeatedly. He combed down my hairs before part them and make some beautiful flower plaits and curl up my hairs that are letting down.
The other one cleaned my face with rose infused water before powder my face with talcum powder before blush rouge and apply a thin layer of red maple lipstick.
The last one led me to stand up in front of him as he take a white blouse with puff sleeves, blood red corset, black thick layered knee-length skirt, white stocking with blue diamond design on it and chestnut mary jane.
"Thank you" I smiled as they bow down before walk out from my room, escort me to the dining room
"Morning, Lux!"
"Sup?"
"Whaddup?"
"You look so cute?"
"I like your clothes"
"I think pigtails suit you more"
"Why don't you just use one colour?"
"I guess you don't need to be like this much"
"I like how they dress you up beautifully" Jeno smiled as I sit down beside him
"Thank you" I muttered as my cheeks are suddenly powdered with more rouge as he chuckles and brushes his fingertips on my chin before make me look up at him
"My princess have to say that while look at my eyes, though. Say it once again and add 'Jeno Oppa'"
"Th-thank you, Jeno Oppa" I said softly as he nods before pat my head softly
"No need to, you got what you deserve" He eye smiled as I can only feel my face heated up before the servants serve our breakfast
"Lux, do you want to go with me later?" Jaemin asked softly as he bites his ravioli while look at me with curiosity
"Where?"
"Dunno, going around the palace and maybe show the outside"
"I'm in" I replied as he smiles happily at me
"But I want to go with Lucifer today, too" Renjun muttered as Jaehyun follows him afterward
"But, we're supposed to be shopping later, Lux"
"You can do it tomorrow with her, Jeffrey. It's not like today is the last day on Hell" Haechan said as Jaehyun glances coldly at him before sighs softly
"Well then, tomorrow is" Jaehyun spoke softly at me with a grin
'I think I should make a schedule now with these 18 men' I thought as I can see Chenle chuckles quietly, probably he read my mind
"Lux, open your mouth" Jeno said as I do what he said and feel sweet yet creamy cake in my mouth melts right away
"Dessert is always the best, right?"
"Yeah" I nodded as he places a plate of piece of cake in front of me
"Black forest gâteau, it's your favourite, right?" He asked softly as I can only nod, knowing they already spy on my family since my father was born
"Not really, actually, just when you born" Chenle said with a smile
"You should think carefully from now on, my dear. We aren't as gentle as our attitude to you if you don't behave nicely to us like now" Lucas said with a grin and malicious shone from his eyes.
