Four-eight.

That’s how many hours we have until Asmodeus stands trial. It’s such a short amount of time in the grand scheme of things, and right now, it feels like my eternity.

It shouldn’t. It’s not me on trial, and yet, the thought of it makes my heart throb and throat squeeze tight. Fear grips me harder, harder than it did when demons ran loose through my settlement or sneered at me between bars.

Those forty-eight hours can stretch out to so long. 2,880 minutes. 172,800 seconds.

The thought of having to make it through that long sounds unbearable, and I’m not even sure if I’ll have Asmodeus by my side.

Do I want him there? I don’t know.

But I’ve grown too used to having him. At meals and in my spare time. We were bonding, and even though he had hurt me a few times, I could tell it was never his intention. He just wasn’t used to being near someone.

“I didn’t expect the King to know how to spar,” I had told him the first time he took me to the arena practice room.

I could hear the grin in his voice and tell from his body language he was relaxed. He may have wanted to hide himself from me, but I could see through the cloak. He used it like a barrer and it was coming crumbling down.

“There are a lot of things you would be surprised to know about me.”

I’d lifted my weapon, weighing it in my hand. I’d nearly called back that the same could be said for me, but there was something about his voice that encouraged me to ask something that had been weighing on my mind.

“Tell me one of them.” I know not to go too far. “Why do you keep yourself so separated from everyone else?”

Most people would deny it. But Asmodeus wouldn’t suffer me as a fool – at least I had thought so at the time. Instead, his answer was soft. “Because it was what I was destined for.”

I think in that moment I knew I wanted to show him he could have more.
