Chapter Six

Lily strode into the throne room, flanked by the three handsome-as-hell demons. Even though she’d fantasized about them since she was a teenage girl, she’d been surprised that they looked better than even in her imagination. She wasn’t sure if it was the River of Lust, or Jaxson’s shocking revelation that he didn’t think she’d find him attractive, but she hadn’t been able to keep her hands off of him.

There’s something endearing about such a sexy man not knowing how incredible he is.

And Ian and Zane. Yum. Ian’s intelligent air intrigued her, and Zane’s flirtatious spirit drew her to him. After she found Kate, she’d have to have a little fun with them too…

But for now, business.

As they neared the massive white throne in the center of the huge room, their party slowed.

The demon-king was speaking to a servant beside him, his expression intense. She studied him. He didn’t look like an immortal being who had lived as long as the realms had existed. He hadn’t aged a day since she’d seen him last: dark hair, dark eyes, and the physique of a man in his late-twenties.

Adjusting the cufflinks on his white suit, he looked away from the demon at his side, his gaze briefly flickering to her, and then quickly back as his eyes widened. Gesturing the man beside him away, he stood and moved down the six steps leading up to his throne. When he was just feet in front of her, he stopped.

“It’s been a long time,” she said, straightening her shoulders.

His gaze moved from her face down to the white uniform shirt she wore, and her bare legs, then back to her face. “I can’t believe how much you’ve changed.” There was wonder in his face and… pride?

“And you haven’t changed at all.”

He smiled and held out his arms.

She hesitated and then moved closer to allow him to fold her into a tight hug.

“You look so much like your mother.”

My mother who died because of you.

She pulled back, stepping free of him as his arms slowly dropped to his sides. “Dad—”

“Dad!” Jaxson exclaimed behind her. “He’s your dad?”

Turning back to him, she grinned, even though her heart wasn’t in it. “Yup.”

The uncomfortable misery on Jaxson’s face almost made facing her father worth it. Almost.

“And you didn’t think you should mention that until now?” He asked, clearly exasperated.

She shrugged and looked back at her father. “I’m actually here for a reason. Not for a family reunion.”

Was there a flicker of sadness on her father’s face, or had she imagined it? “Of course you’re not here just to visit. What do you need?”

“A blue demon capable of teleportation abducted a friend of mine from my apartment. I figured you might know who I’m looking for.”

His dark brows rose. “I’ve only given one blue demon that ability, Zarr. But I can’t imagine what he’d want with your friend. He spends his days prophesizing and staring into his scrying bowl.”

Interesting. “Well, he did. Can you point me in his
