Chapter 412 Summoning Him
He had told her how her mother had called him from hell. The process of summoning the demon.
She could only hope that Declan was the real name of the demon she was looking for.
She pierced her finger with her nail that grew long like a dagger. Blood started to come out instantly when she crouched on the ground and started making the markings while casting the spell.
The star shaped mark with words writing under it of a spell. It started to glow as soon as it was completed.
She stood up and started murmuring the rest of the spells when the circle grew with silverlight.
It was so bright that Hazel closed her eyes. She could feel so much pressure as if someone was sucking her blood. No it was more than that, as if she was losing all her blood and soul.
Someone was pulling her under the ground. Hands, several hands were trying to drag her to hell.
She clenched her hands into a fist but she did not break the spell.
It was for Anne! With that thought she used more power in spells when finally the pressure of being dragged left her and the bright light slowly started to fade.
She opened her eyes and started at the circle to see a demon trapped under it.
He was staring back at her with a look of confusion in his bright golden eyes.
"I never thought you would be the one to summon me one day." though he chuckled his voice lacks humor and so as his eyes that were looking at hazel with much vigilance.
"And you do know that you have to pay a price for calling demons. Right?" He pointed at himself as if trying to tell her that he was not a normal human as she had thought so far but a demon that was much stronger than she think/.
"You can only ask for a cost if I ask you to fulfill my wish." she said with confidence as she had learned this much when Declan raised a brow.
He tried to move but he could not. As if invisible chains were bidding him with the circle and he cursed.
She was right! He was bound with this chain. It was like they were talking through a portal. When she would ask for something, oly then he would be free to walk and do other things freely.
He couldn\'t even take something from her till then.
"Since you know all this, you must have called me for some reason. Right?" he asked with a tile of head. "Then why waste time, tell me what do you want?"
"I want to know if you liked Anne or was it just a mission, a game for you?" her voice was sharp and she stared at him with a soul piercing gaze when she saw his eyes widened and shock registering in them before he started laughing.
He laughed hard as if he had heard a joke while Hazel just frowned. She did not find any reasons for laughing like that.
"What is it?" she asked with a glare when the demon finally stopped laughing and stared back at her.
"Who would have thought that you called me for that. I knew that you care about her a lot.. But this much!" he shook his head and finally the laughter died down in the room.
With both of them getting silent for a second, the room looked eerily quiet but before she could say anything further, he looked back at her.
"Anne is a kind woman. She deserves much better than a demon who was bound to chains and needed a reason to live here. It would be better that you would not look for me further for this reason." his voice was grave and his gaze was biting as if he was threatening her but she only raised a brow.
"Rather than threatening me, would it not be better that you would have just denied your affection towards her. You are giving a twisting reply just like your face." the man frowned when she scoffed at him and touched his face.
"There is no way that I look twisted. I am one of the most handsome people on earth. All the demons are. But I can see what you are doing here. Angering me would not work. My decision is final." he paused as he kept staring at her and then asked, "did Anne ask you to summon me?"
Though he was trying to look indifferent, the look on his face betrayed him and a wide grin formed on her face.
"No! She told me to find you and kill you so that she never gets the chance to see you again. She hates you so damn much." the man flinched at her words and looked away before nodding his head.
"See! I have told you. It would not work between us. So, do not summon me again, this way, you would not need to see my face." he waited for her to nod.
Since she had called him, he could not leave without her permission but the way she was just standing and looking at him as if she was enjoying teasing him was infuriating.
"Are you trying to take revenge?" he asked when he could not bear the game of staring anymore.
The demons have not been patient since the start. He was feeling anger and frustration filling his chest.
"Hey, let me go, my master would be looking for me since he failed the task." he said with gritted teeth as he felt that he was bound and at mercy of her will when she shook her head and raised her chin.
"I would.. But later! Right now, I am still waiting for you to speak the truth. Do you want to stay on the earth and court Anne or not!"
