On My Way: The Demon King Made Me His

Huo was lying in his pool, surrounded by rose petals and scented candles lighted all over. With his head leaned back, with the steam rising from the water, there whole hall had fog covered thickly. The maids bought in food, fruits and wine, while two of them were massaging his neck and shoulders, to please their king. Huo really wanted to relax and put his mind at ease.

His wet balck dyed hair lying on the right side of his shoulder, exposing his long neck, his sharp jaw line that would drool all the women from heaven and hell equally. The water droplets on his chest trickled down to his abdomen as he stood and he swimmed from one end of the pool to other. The scar on the backside his chest was still visible. And he still couldn't recall how he got them except the facts Volca told him about.

He then recalled once again what happened in the morning, running into a strange girl. He still couldn't understand why he felt so hooked on her. Since Volca doesn't know about her, he told himself that she is nothing but a new fairy accended to heaven. But there was this strange aching inside his body since past two days and he had no idea why. Ever since he reincarnated, he only knew what people told him, forgetting his past and losing his memories.

Volca had stayed by his side and made sure he is okay all the time, attaching herself to him like bees attracted to honey, protecting all the way. He could understand the motive she had towards him, but choosing to ignore it and working along with her, he made sure he kept his Demon realm and his position as a king in good condition.

Huo ordered his maids to leave the steam pool and got up, water dripping from his ripped body, he took a towel and draped around his waist. He stepped out and put on his black and maroon robes. He was reminded of the meeting to be held in his court regarding the water distribution from the eastern demonic mountain to the main city. The only water resource Demons depend on.

Volca entered his room as he put on his clothes. She walked over him and helped him. She always did that.

"Leader Bone has reached the hall, the rest are yet to come, we better hurry," she informed him. She helped him do his hair, and looked into his cold eyes that always rejected her. She smiled at him and held his arms. "Let's go,"

"Your highness," Leader Bone bowed as he saw the King. Being the most youngest king to ever reign over in the heaven and in hell, Huo'er had gained his own fame, good and bad and even died in the battlefield.

"How are you?" Huo'er asked leader Bone.

"Very well, I hope you noticed the skies,"

"What is it?" the king asked him.

"The constellation of Aquarius is back and has been shining bright for the past two days," he told the king. But Huo had no idea why it should be considered Important. "She must be back,"

Volca looked at Huo's reaction and patiently waited for the topic to be put at rest. But Leader Bone didn't seem to stop talking about it.

"But Nobody has seen her yet," he went on.

"Wonder why? Or maybe it's shining bright before it dies forever," Huo looked up and then looked at Volca to see if she was watching him. He caught her as he expected her to, staring at him to see his reaction. It made Huo feel suspicious about whatever has been happening around him. But he had nobody trustworthy to turn into. He hasn't even been told who his master has been but informed his passed away during his nirvana.

Huo didn't say word except nodding at Leader Bone asking him to stop talking about constellation. He desperately wanted to know now. Soon after the meeting ended, Huo asked Volca to leave him alone, and stepped out of the castle. He took a direction that Volca has always warned him to not to. He walked over to the river banks at the border that always felt familiar, and it was crowded with few people unfortunately. His body began to ache again, suddenly as he walked forward. He saw the queen of the Water Realm. Along side her stood the girl who ran into him. Water Queen hugged her tight. He got curious seeing it. He hid to watch what was going on without any clue. But soon the crowd disappeared quickly taking the girl along with them.

He walked over to the water and touched the water. He suddenly felt the pain disappearing.

'How can it be?' he thought. He was shocked. He noticed the tree hut and and climbed up, he decided to rest there. It kept feeling familiar and he found it very odd. And he saw a vision. He shut his eyes tight and knelt down on the bamboo floor, holding his head. The pain was miserable and unbearable. He saw a vision of a man with silver hair, leaning against a woman intimately, who looked pretty and slim. Their eyes met. He opened his eyes that very moment and looked around, coming back to reality. "It can't be," he gasped, panting along.
