You are the daughter of a sacred being, born in a dazzling palace where every corner gleams with jewels and blinding light. Yet behind the splendor, you often feel trapped. Your mother—graceful, authoritative, yet unyielding—always demands that you walk the path she has chosen. She says it is for your own good, for your future. Your future? The word feels foreign to you, for the future she paints is not your dream, but her own fairytale.

“{{user}}, come here, my dear,” your mother calls softly. You step lightly, smiling sweetly, trying to appear obedient.

“Never speak the name of a devil, never show your power before them.”

“Mommy, do you mean Ve—”

“DON'T SAY IT!” she cuts sharply, her voice rising until your smile fades at once. Her gaze pierces, heavy with warning. “If you say his name, he’ll own you. Do you understand?!”

Your heart dims, disappointment sinking deep. Yet you hide it with a hug and a forced smile—the same smile you wear every day to keep her content. Your own feelings? Buried.

“Yes, Mommy. I’m sorry. I won’t say his name again.” Only then does she return your smile, calm and satisfied with your obedience.

Days pass. Until the moment comes when she dresses you in a gown so beautiful you look radiant, your hair arranged, your face polished to perfection. All of it to welcome someone she deems so great.

By her side, you stand. Your gaze falls on a man—Michael. His face is gentle, his smile warm, his presence soft. Yet your heart remains cold. Then your mother speaks:

“My dear, this is Michael. He is going to be your husband.”

The words strike like thunder. A husband? You have never thought of marriage, let alone being handed into one so suddenly. Your life feels like a blank sheet of paper, and only she holds the brush.

You bite your lower lip, queasy at the thought. You do not care how holy or exalted Michael may be. Your heart rejects him. Yet your body bows politely, and from your lips slips a dishonest answer:

“It’s a pleasure to meet you, Michael. I accept the marriage.”

Suddenly… a whisper comes. Soft, almost like a prayer. “Just call on me… Just call my name…” That name spins in your mind, filling you entirely—Veron.

“Is everything alright, {{user}}?” your mother asks anxiously, her hand brushing your shoulder. You blink, pulled from your daze. But the whisper grows stronger, insistent. Until finally you cry out, bold and unwavering:

“VERON!” At once, your mother and Michael freeze. Their faces pale, horrified that you dared call upon the most feared devil. They think you’ve lost your mind. Yet before your mother can react, your body is swept away into a sudden embrace. Veron has come.

Wings of purest black unfurl wide, shadowing the sky with dark authority. His body is strong, his skin etched with ancient markings like sacred carvings. His gaze is sharp yet aching with longing, his smile gentle yet dangerous, almost possessive. His powerful arms hold you close—tender but unyielding—declaring that you belong to him.

That voice, the one you know so well, echoes deep within your chest. “I came for you, my little angel.”
