13 Chapter 13: Her Blood (1/2)

Ivery collapsed on the ground and fell into a deep sleep...

”I'll take her back to the castle..” Luther picked Ivery up from the ground and looked at her sleeping face as she was peacefully resting in his arms

”Thank you..Luther” Julian's appearance reverted back and he looked at Luther with full hearted appreciation

”It's my pleasure” Luther responded

”Take care of her for me..” Julian said

”You don't need to tell me that, I'll take care of her regardless of who says it or who doesn't” Luther and Ivery disappeared into a black mist along with Erebus and Loki

”Good boy” Julian smiled

...

Luther laid Ivery down on her bed, he gently kissed her head as he sat down on the bed.

His eyes were stuck on the black cross mark imprinted on her forehead....She's definitely going to have questions when she sees it....what could he tell her? How could he tell her what he learned..?Telling her what happened today seemed like something she should hear from her father.

”Devil's blood...” Luther sat and thought to himself...

.

....

Luther laid in the bed right beside Ivery, his hands played in her soft silky blonde hair, enchanted by every strand that glowed under the white moonlight. He looked at her peaceful face as she was in a deep sleep, after what happened today, it is normal for her to be tired out. They could always continue training tomorrow.

Luther couldn't erase the way Ivery looked and acted out of his head. She didn't necessarily scare him, it was because she looked as if she was in pain...the thought deeply saddened him. Luther's mind was running all throughout the night before he finally fell asleep, holding Ivery in his warm embrace.

Ivery blinked awake, before she sat up and looked around at her surroundings. Ivery suddenly felt hot, very hot, as if her blood was on fire. She looked at her hand and the veins inside of her hand and arm were beaming red with a fiery glow, and looked drastically inflamed. The fiery glow in her veins traveled up her arm and throughout her whole body system.

The black cross mark on her forehead, slowly beamed red and the roots of her hair began filling with a red color.

Ivery looked over at Luther who was sleeping beside her. She hastily shook him awake.

Luther opened his eyes and saw the state that Ivery was in. Her veins were burning red through her skin, her hair was slowly rooting red and her red eyes glowed furiously.

Luther quickly sat up and held Ivery in his arms as she writhed in pain. Tears started rolling down Ivery's face as the pain soon became unbearable.

”It burns!” Ivery squeezed Luther's arms and clenched her teeth together

Her symptoms were still progressing even though he put her in a peaceful dream, an artificial dreamland made by him, just for her.

Luther gently laid Ivery down on the bed and his body turned into a black mist.

Luther ended up in the Emperor's quarters and saw Julian and Empress Cassandra sleeping in bed. Luther walked over to Julian's side and shook Julian awake with absurd speed. Julian jolted awake after being intensely shaked like a rattle.

”Crown Prince Luther?” Julian rubbed his eyes and sat up in his bed

”Somethings wrong with Inanna” Luther got straight to the point and had no time to waste

”Where is she?!” Julian quickly got out of bed

”In her room..” Luther said

Julian's body turned into a cloud of red mist, mixed with a hint of gold, Luther followed him and his body disappeared into a black cloud of mist.

Julian appeared in Ivery's bedroom and walked towards the bed that Ivery was peacefully sleeping on. Julian lifted up her arm and saw her inflamed veins and the roots of her hair was turning red, and the demon seal he placed on her forehead was activated.

”What's happening?” Luther asked Julian

”This is normal...the demon within is trying to break through the seal I placed” Julian said as he examined Ivery's body

”Can you help her?” Luther asked

”Yes, but Inanna has to overcome the demon within by her own power, not mine, I can only suppress the demon's full power, not the demon itself, if Inanna gives into the demon and falls into the darkness...the demon will fully take over her body and she will cease to exist, she needs to learn how to take over the demon instead of letting it take over her, the key to taking over the body that a demon possesses is learning the name of the human they inhabit...once they learn the name of the human they possess, they can fully take over...” Julian said as he touched the red cross mark seal on her forehead

”Is that what you did?” Luther looked at Julian

”Yes, that's what all of us had to do to survive, only two of my siblings out of fifty, inherited 'Devil's Blood', they both told their demon's their names and they died in transition and so the demon's took over their corpses, my father had to put them down...” Julian feared Ivery would end up the same way, he hoped this girl had enough will and strength to overcome her demon inside

”It's dark...” Ivery floated in what seemed like black water....

”Hello child...” A deep seductive demonic voice said within the darkness
