On My Way: The Demon King Made Me His - Chapter 30

Huo was busy taking care of the local requests received regarding the tax payments for the meat sellers. Huo decided to shoulder some of his father’s work to learn about his new responsibilities.

“How long has they been protesting?” Huo asked a minister.

“Two weeks,”

“Then it’s a new issue,” he said.

“Yes your highness, His majesty Dritan never leaves any pending works, he always over worked and kept himself, ” the minister told Huo’er.

“There are no works that are over work for a king, Sir,” Huo told him with a smirk.

“That is right, apologies to your highness, ” The minister apologised to Huo. “But what I meant to say was, our king has to consider his age and look after his health, he has been searching for you all these years, I haven’t seen him this happy,”

“Am glad you think very highly of our king, my father, I would like to sincerely thank you for everything, ” Huo’er expressed his thoughts clearly.

The minister left the chamber and closed the door behind. Some minutes later, the door opened again. It was already very late at night.

“We will deal everything tomorrow, you may go rest now, it’s late,” he said without lifting his eyes up from his table, reading a petition. But the person kept approaching him. “I said its alright to leave, ” he said again. Then he felt a familiar scent in the room. slender finger running through his shoulders standing behind his chair. He pulled the arms and she fell into his slap. “I knew it,” he said.

“Why would I leave even if its too late at night, when the demon prince has once already devoured me,” Huo’er smiled at her seducing words and Aqua started laughing. She sat up straight in his lap as he lifted the veil taking her off.

“God you look like a demon princess, how would I guess,’

“How are you so sure about it? Have you seen one?” she questioned him raising her brows.

“I saw few portraits in my father’s study,” he told her.

“Then it’s fine,” she said and pinched his cheeks. Suddenly someone knocked on the door.

“I have brought dinner your highness, ” the maid said.

“Come on in,” Huo’er ordered. Aqua slid under his table and toyed with his leg. “Had you dinner?” he whispered leaning down.

“No,” she said.

“Am so hungry tonight for many things,” he said clearing his thoughts, but he missed the sight of Auqa blushing. “This isn’t enough, bring me one more portion,” he ordered another set for his woman. The maid was surprised and brought in another set that was ready outside the door. “That was quick,” he said as the maid set the table. A few minutes later, Aqua crawled and stood up.

Huo made sure that he locked the doors and walked back to his table. He hugged Aqua tight and lifted her in his arms.

“Do you know how much I missed you?” he said unable to take his eyes off her. He felt his heart pounding loud and fast.

“I dont know,” she said.

“Wait till I show you,” he said and put her down on his bed. He climbed on top of her. He took her tiara away and untied the knots in her gown. She laughed as he tickled her and tried to push him away to stop him.

He then kissed her and reminded her that the food is waiting. He took his top that was lying on the floor putting them on and helped her up. She took the quilt the covered herself in it, wrapping them. She settled down next to Huo’er and he fed her. luckily the food was still hot.

“Don’t spoil me, I will eat them myself,” she told him. But he didn’t let her eat by herself feeding her and eating along. “If Milan ever sees this, she will kill me by teasing me,” she told him thinking of his sister.

“So the sisters came to attend my ceremony,” he said having the meat.

“Aiden has tagged along with us,” she informed him.

“Oh him,”

“I have a feeling that my sister might have a sort of feelings for him, I dont it’s weird but I kind of got such reaction from her,”

“Then I have got nothing to worry about,” Huo’er said and Aqua hit him. She spent the night with him talking, joking and sleeping with him. It was a memorable night for both of them.
