Dr. Luna
The Vampires Promised Bride Chapter 42

Lucy readied herself to provoke the energy from Jasper again as Aiden, Abaddon and Ryan stayed clos "What are your plans?" Mira the banshee asked.

"Well we are going to try to-" Lucy started but the banshee hissed louder and over her.

was about to speak when a small pale young woman with ivory hair appeared in front of them.

"Not what you are about to do! What are your plans afterwards?" Mira looked over at Abaddon. "You did tell them right?"

Abaddon shrugged. "It doesn't change anything. They are going to do what they are going to do. I dont think they trust my words anyways."

Mira clicked her tongue loudly. "Careful. You do know it is within my power to disintegrate your soul?"

"Like you could ever let me forget." He bit back angrily.

"What didn't he say?" Jasper turned his gaze to Abaddon harshly.

"Pacifying a djinn isn't easy. It exists as part of you now. Almost like a part of your soul. You can't vanquish it without killing yourself. The djinn has to willingly leave its host for another but only if it accepts a new master. So your options? To control it as a master slave relationship. Or to bind it to someone else. By binding it to them..." Abaddon turned his gaze to

"You can bind the demon to you, making the djinn yours. Making Jasper yours or the new owner yours. The previous djinn was bound by the late vampire king. After his tragic death the demon could no longer control his blood [**t. When Jester became angry on behalf of his brother he killed. The same thing is now happening with Jasper." Mira frowned and looke

"Can I bind it to myself?" Lucy asked quietly.

per.

"NO!"

"NO!"

"NO!"

Aiden, Jasper, and Ryan all yelled simultaneously.

Abaddon chuckled. "Hardly. The fairy princess can't be a suitable host for a demon. It would never cho "What about you then?" Lucy asked, turning her attention to Abaddon.

"That's not a bad idea." Mira said with a grin while Abaddon just stared at Lucy blankly. "Abaddon wou Abaddon stared at Lucy blankly. "I'd become your bound servant... Are you sure you want that?"

live inside of you."

to agree to accept this though."

"Well you are already that anyways right? Because of your agreement with the vampires." Lucy shrugged. "Yes but with some difference. I would be bonded to you. And with the djinn I would be allowed to kill. This would be taking on a new contract of sorts. Where I am loyal to the family but most to you." He smirked and tilted his head to the side. "Are you sure you want that princesssss?"

"But your bloodlust would be under my control. You wouldn't be able to kill unless I willed it." Lucy challenged him back with the facts she had just learned.

"Lucy..." Aiden whispered out as she waved him off.

"I want something in return if I agree to this." Abaddon's eyes met with Lucy's. Her gaze upon him was fiery, fierce and determined. There was so much confidence about her. No self doubt. She was clever and quick witted. He admired her... if it was to her... he could be bound to her as her servant. As her protector. Inwardly he laughed. He went from trying to claim the fairy princess to being claimed by the fairy princess. He was about to make an agreement that would bind him to her. It would be a devoted role to everything. A protector, a servant... he would be and do whatever it was she commanded of him. He could even kill by her command. But this type of agreement would last through the ages. And would follow her bloodline just like the djinn has been with the vampires. "Well?" Lucy arched her brow at him and tapped her foot impatiently.

"I want your oath that the bond between our master servant relationship will be over in the event of your death. And I want my soul returned to the life circle to be born again. This is something the fairy queen can grant..."

"I have no intention of becoming the fairy queen. That position is for my cousin Alexis. My Aunt Rhea is also immortal. She would be the one to grant this. I would have to discuss it with her. But I will do what I can. In the event of my death you would not be bound anymore. I can at least do that much. But what would happen in that case?"

"I can choose my next master willingly if I do not get to be reborn." Abaddon watched as her green eyes bore into him.

Lucy looked at her brother with a half shrug. She really didn't see a downside to it. And Mira was also in agreement. She looked up at Jasper to see him frowning. "What is it?" Lucy asked.

"Its just... I don't understand why." He looked up at Abaddon. "Why would you agree to this in the first place? I understand why you agreed to be the vampire's servant so your soul wasn't destroyed but this is more than that. This is becoming her person." "I want another chance. I want another life and she is the only one that can grant me that. Well either she can or one of her relatives. I didn't live my life before... and I want that." Abaddon's voice was quiet.

"I will do what I can to hold that end of the bargain up. I don't see how giving you another chance at life would be a bad thing. You wouldn't retain your memories and would be starting fresh again." Lucy shrugged, there wasn't a downside to his request. He could be evil or good just like anyone who is born. And if he helped her out by taking this djinn from Jasper then it is worth the trade.

She knew the stories of Abaddon... he was sick and twisted. Maybe dying changed things for him? In either case, him being reborn doesn't mean he will be a half demon again. He could be reborn as a regular human. All this does is prevent his soul from ceasing to exist.

"Binding a djinn to his soul will incapacitate him for quite some time. He will be practically useless for at least a month... maybe longer. Although... It is hard to say how it will work on a contracted soul." Mira added, looking at Lucy. "So no sending him off to find and kill the witch?" Lucy smiled and bit her bottom lip.

Abaddon chuckled. She wanted to order him to kill immediately. Having her as a master would be interesting. He thought back to a time when he wasn't so corrupt. Before power and jealousy took control. He could remember it clearly... the first time he saw her...

Abaddon watched from the bushes as the fairy princess Alice sat in a field covered in flowers. The sun shone upon her beautiful face. The light beams hugged and kissed her body. She was perfect... she looked so happy and peaceful. And for the first time in his life, he felt... happy. As if she was happiness itself and he thought to himself that he wished he had someone like her. Secretly he continued to watch her. He watched her laugh and care for others. Her light and goodness pulled him in closer like a drug. And as time went by... he fell in love with her. One day he bravely got closer to her and his wolf howled out that she was his mate. With this knowledge, he grasped the courage to approach her but she ran in fear of him.

Still, he tried again... and again... and yet again. She always would flee without giving him a chance to explain. Soon after she always had her guardian Dylan around where he could no longer approach. He started going mad. Inwardly he began to poison and fester while his wolf drove him crazy with desire. She didn't feel the mate bond like he did. She wouldn't let him get close enough to feel it. He was certain if he could just get close enough to her then she would feel it too. Or at least give him the chance to prove his affections.

He tried again...this time a confrontation ensued and he angrily vowed to capture the fairy princess as his own. The fairy queen took action and sent her daughter away. Over time he heard the fairy princess Alice married Ethan the alpha of the Silver Moon pack. This was the day he went crazy. When another wolf took her as a mate... she didn't run away from him.

He festered. It hurt. He wasn't good enough for her because he was a demon. The crushing drowning feeling invaded him. The agony consumed him. His wolf went mad. He had to have her. He needed to have her. He WOULD have her. The obsession poisoned his existence... it was no longer good enough to just have her. He would take the next fairy princess as his own. He deserved the pureness of the fairy princess. He should have had it from the beginning. His wolf was fixated that any fairy princess was his. Then the corruption continued as he sank deeper into his insanity. He wanted to start a new species. One that was half-demon and fairy. A species that the fairies wouldn't find unworthy because they would also be fairies too. He would be able to enter into Elysium and so would his offspring. He would be accepted by them. Reality and fantasy blurred together. And the lies became truth. The fairy princess wronged him. She felt like she was too good for him. And in spite of him, she took another werewolf as her mate. Yes, she did it because she thought she was better than him.

He was crazy, he was evil, he was corrupted, and couldn't see past obtaining the fairy princess. He no longer cared if it was Alice, her daughter, her granddaughter... it didn't matter. He would have the fairy princess and produce an heir. The next fairy princess would be part demon. They could never look down on him then. He would own Elysium and a new world power would come into existence.

"Are you ready?"

The sound of Lucy's voice brought him back from his memories. Abaddon looked up at Lucy and into her green serene eyes. She didn't look down at him. She didn't treat him like she was better than him. She didn't fear him. She challenged him as an alpha female should. He could see the events of the past clearly now. He wronged the fairy princesses. Alice was a pacifist fairy princess who didn't have any fighting spirit in her. Seeing a half demon would have been terrifying for her. And he could forgive her for simply being scared. What he did because of this was wrong.

He was obsessed and poisoned. Jasper asked why he would do this? Why would he enter this agreement? Because... it was his penance. But they would never believe that. So he used this opportunity to ask for what he wanted. A second chance to live. To live without the poison. And whether he was granted this or not he would be happy to serve her.

He didn't deserve forgiveness for what he put her family through. But he could only offer himself. It is all he had to offer. She could do with him as she chose. She could even destroy his soul if she wished. And in the event of her untimely death, he hoped he could be reborn. But she would be immortal so death could only come as an outside source... and as her protector, he would sacrifice his soul in exchange for her life.

The fairy princess Rhea saved him by killing his corrupt self. The vampires kept his soul as a slave. Now that his soul was free of corruption he was able to remember events clearly. And now... the next fairy princess was offering him a chance to serve as penance. The amount of contrition he felt would take him several lifetimes to perhaps earn some redemption. And he was willing to offer himself to her for eternity.
