The Demon's Angelic Love

Chapter 168 - ONE STEP AWAY

The phone call with Felice had ended, but Azren was still holding his phone in his hand. Sitting on the edge of his bed, he kept his green eyes glued to the phone screen.

["He dared to hit a girl like that? What kind of man is he?"]

["He could bring himself to hit the girl because he doesn't love the girl at all. He only pretended to be in love with the girl to save his career!"]

["Yes. Michy doesn't love the girl because he loves a man instead. A heartless gay like him doesn't deserve our support!"]

Those were the comments from the fans that turned into haters, and Azren felt his heart burning when he read them one by one.

The people on the internet didn't even talk about how the girl shamelessly kissed the blue-eyed idol on the stage, and they were talking about how the idol slapped the girl instead.

Now Michy was like the villain, while Trissa was like the victim. The public blindly sided with Trissa and even made a trending topic with the hashtag #ProtectInnocentGirlFromHeartlessGay on social media.

Azren remembered how Tallie said something about Michy choosing a man over her beautiful daughter. He didn't know that the moment was broadcast as well, and if he knew, he probably would choke that woman to death.

Now the public knew that Michy was indeed gay because of the woman's careless words.

The young demon was beyond furious, and the anger in his heart seemed to be eating his sanity alive.

He didn't realize that the blonde strands on his head turned into black strands even more after he was getting angrier. He didn't notice that the same incident also happened when he almost broke Tallie's wrist with his strong grip earlier today.

Azren didn't realize it, but his blonde hair almost turned black completely. Now it was only the front part of the hair that remained blonde. He was too busy with the problem related to Michy, and he didn't even have time to check his reflection in the mirror.

"What will happen to Michy after this?" Azren lamented sadly while putting his phone on top of the nightstand. He could see the primrose phone strap hanging on the phone, and his heart throbbed even more. He couldn't even protect Michy, and the boy probably would feel so sad if he knew about all of this.

["What you have done couldn't protect him, but it only brought harm to him. Can't you see what happened to him now? He lost his parents, he lost his kingdom, he lost his people, and he even lost his life. Your love only brought a disaster for him, and you couldn't protect him with your love."]

A strange voice suddenly rang in his head, and Azren widened his eyes in surprise. "Whose voice is that? Whose memory is that?" He whispered in his trembling voice as he brought his gaze to scan his surroundings.

It wasn't the first time he got a strange memory in his head. The first time was when he tried to save Michy from drowning in the ocean. He saw a blurry image and heard a voice back then, but the voice was different from the one he just heard.

Azren was anxious, and he even got up from the bed and kept glancing at his surroundings. He felt like he was being hunted by something, but he didn't know what the thing was.

"Maybe it's my king? Maybe he's upset with me and decided to haunt me?"

The demon was beyond terrified, and he even used his hands to hug himself. He was scared. He was scared by the thought that it was Lucifer who haunted him with the fragment of strange memories.

He didn't even know those memories, but for some reason, those memories pinched his heart even more. It felt like he regretted something, but he didn't know what the thing was.

Azren was scared to face it alone, and he needed someone to hug him at this moment. Yes, he needed someone.

A layer of sweat soaked his forehead, his face was as pale as the paper, and Azren dashed to the door before unlocking it. He hurriedly opened the door, and he froze when he saw someone standing in front of the door.

He felt like crying, but then he rushed forward to hug the person. He didn't care if he looked like a madman right now, but he cried while hugging the person. The person was stunned, but then he raised his hands to return the hug. He didn't even know why the taller man suddenly cried, but he moved his hands up and down the broad back to comfort the man.

Azren didn't even know why he suddenly wanted to cry, but he indeed cried while hugging Michy. He didn't even know why Michy suddenly appeared in front of his door, and he only knew that he needed Michy right now.

"It's okay, you can cry. I'll always be here for you."

He could hear Michy's soft voice trying to comfort him, and he cried even more. He should be the one who comforted Michy, but he ended up being the one who sought comfort from the idol.

Realizing the situation, Azren immediately pulled himself away from the idol's embrace and stared at the idol intently.

The idol stared back at him before raising his hand to touch Azren's head. "I didn't have the opportunity to ask this question before, but are you sure you didn't dye your hair black, Azren?"

In the idol's hand were the strands of black hair, and of course, the sight confused the idol. Not to mention the strands of black hair seemed to be increasing in amount, and that puzzled the idol more.

Azren's face was wet with tears, but Michy chose to touch his hair instead of wiping his tears away. Perhaps Michy was still the tsundere who wanted to distract Azren's attention by touching his hair instead of wiping his tears away.

In the end, Azren wiped his tears with the back of his hand because he didn't want to look so dumb in Michy's eyes.

"What are you talking about, Michy? I've never dyed my hair," Azren responded in his hoarse voice. He shamelessly cried while hugging Michy, and his voice even turned hoarse now.

The idol let go of his hair and smiled a little when he heard the voice. Azren noticed that Michy smiled more after they officially started dating.

Without saying anything, the boy grabbed the taller man's hand and dragged the man to enter the room.

It was the first time Michy entered Azren's room, and the latter couldn't even hide his smile. However, his smile vanished the moment he and Michy stopped walking in front of a mirror. He almost failed to recognize himself because his hair was dominated by black right now.

"Why... why did my hair become like this? Why did my hair turn black?" Azren nervously asked the questions while bringing his hand to touch the black strands on his hair.

He couldn't even call himself a blonde man anymore because the remaining blonde strands on his head were not too much. The blonde was lost to the black strands.

"That's why I thought you colored your hair, Azren. Are you sure that you didn't do that? But, how come your hair turned black all of a sudden? Or, is it the other way around? Is your hair originally black and you colored it blonde? Maybe the blonde color starts to fade now?"

Michy questioned him with a series of questions, but Azren remained quiet. He had lived for two hundred years, but not even once did he see himself in black hair. He was born with blonde hair, and that was why he was being bullied by other demons in Hell.

"I never colored my hair blonde, Michy. Blonde is my original hair color, but it gradually turned black," Azren finally answered as he kept his gaze on his reflection in the mirror.

Michy, who was standing next to him, sighed as he once again touched the black strands that belonged to the young demon. "It's okay, Azren. Nothing bad will happen even if your hair turns black. Everything will be fine, and I will always stay by your side."

Azren was touched by Michy's words, and he turned his body so he was facing the shorter boy now. With a smile on his face, he gradually brought his face closer to Michy's until he captured the pair of lips once again.

The atmosphere in the room was warm, and the two creatures didn't notice that the wind outside the building was quite strong that it managed to open the curtain that covered the window in the room.

And from outside the window, the demon king floated proudly with a smirk on his face.

"Are you sure that everything will be fine? I'm only one step away from my goal, and the two of you will fall into my hands for sure."
