Incubus' Blood Harem

Suddenly the ground began to rumble as if the earth grumbled upon sensing something inhumane. A loud noise of 'neigh'

Animalistic instinctive abilities always had been wonderful in sensing a perilous activity in the surroundings. Eros became alarmingly alert at the reaction of the horses.

Upon the jumping of a horse a soldier was flung in the air then dusted on the ground in no time, the horses were terribly frightened.

Eros assumed the danger lurking in the dark green bushes all around the lake, and began using his supernatural sight.

His eyes turned flashing red yet he cautiously moved his head to sneak peak into the surroundings, and maunderd a dark spell.

His visionary senses emphasized and his ears amplified the voices around them as he carefully focused on all the happenings.

But nothing came forward, neither a beast nor something that could be classified as a danger. His eyes immediately returned to the Oceania blue shade from his original demonic red eye balls.

His supernatural senses calmed and he averted his confused stare towards King Theon, whose eyes were glued to the net of branches that were entwined together of all the trees.

Suddenly a shadow appeared on a branch, the 'thing' accelerated fast, his movement was more like ninjas. The shadow successfully dodged everyone's eyes, including the Dark Lord.

"Here he is with the gift."

King Theon muttered in excitement with exuberant tone as he glanced at the shadow.

Eros' eyes never left the shadowy silhouette till he flew through the air and jumped down, and landed light as a feather without any noise.

The Dark Lord was stunned to see such a sudden intrusion in the forest which was unexpected, as eunuch Eros assumed it to be some beast.

"My lord, here it is, untouched flower! The sacrifice!"

The man in black bowed at first then knelt in front of King Theon, right in his feet.

"Another reward is redound to your credit for such a wonderful work."

King Theon gave him a vile smirk and waved his hand as a signalling gesture.

One of the horsemen stepped forward with a red bag, of which neck was suffocated with a ribbon, and handed it over to King Theon.

Despite giving the masked man his reward in his hand the wicked man threw the bag on the ground, the gold coins scattered on the ground with a sharp noise.

"Thank you, his highness for blessing this servant."

Eros couldn't comprehend whether the man was used to this humiliating behaviour or he hid his painful expressions behind that mask which covered his mouth and nose.

The shadowy man gathered the coins, rubbed the dusty ones onto his black robe and placed them back into the bag. After getting his reward he bowed obediently and again jumped, vanishing into the darkness.

After the man was a goner Eros turned towards the sly fox who stood there hands folded, another man from the cluster dashed forward and opened the mouth of the jute sack.

The shadowy man dropped the sack onto the ground as soon as he appeared and left the wriggling jute thing there without any master.

"Let's begin the ritual!"

King Theon yelled raising both hands in the air as the soldiers pulled out their sword and stretched into the air.

"Hail to the river of Goddess,

Our Mother, Allow Kingdom Bellezza to prosper! Grace fertility upon this land, I praise thee here, I pray thee here, I sacrifice thee here, Grant Kingdom Bellezza eternal prosperity!"

King Theon shouted and praised to the Goddess facing the vast lake, the soldiers repeated the prayer behind the voice of their king.

While Eros remained rooted there quietly in a daze, his stare stitched to the jute sack which was continuously wriggling. So, his intuition was true? The King of Kingdom Bellezza was going to commit a perilous act that would sure make his kingdom crumble sooner.

A man moved towards the sack and opened its mouth which was tied by a rope tightly, a woman emerged!

A woman came into Eros' sight probably she just entered in her youth, from the jute sack. The girl was crying, her sobs were muffled due to the cloth stuffed in her mouth.

He didn't dare to speak as the life of his bride would be placed at the stake if the Dark Lord proved to be meddlesome.

"I present you an untouched flower as sacrifice from newly appointed general. Grace him with your blessings and powers!"

King Theon mumbled but Eros didn't bother to give him any response rather he pity the young girl who was going to be sacrificed, she was staring back at Eros with moisture in eyes.

If ...if her mouth was not covered, her shrieks would be heard by everyone, every insect and beast residing in the forest. She was pleading Eros to help,to save her, with her sparkling eyes.

She struggled hard, jiggling and wriggling like a bug, in a failed try to crawl a far. Her whole body quivered, fear was already circulating in her blood.

Suddenly the ground began to rumble as if the earth grumbled upon sensing something inhumane. A loud noise of 'neigh' of the trained horses of King Theon and his small army of twenty men resonated.

Animalistic instinctive abilities always had been wonderful in sensing a perilous activity in the surroundings. Eros became alarmingly alert at the reaction of the horses.

After the man was a goner Eros turned towards the sly fox who stood there hands folded, another man from the cluster dashed forward and opened the mouth of the jute sack.

Before anyone could speak or do something, the person who handed over the reward to the King picked her up on his shoulder and walked towards the lake.

It could be acknowledged that she was abducted, taken away from her home and was going to be sacrificed for no specific reason. The whole thing was inhumane and illogical to Eros yet he was bound not to react.

The man threw the girl into the lake, whose water was apparently normal and calm like regular ones but in fact was magical and acidic that could tear down the flesh and dissolve the bones in no time.

Eros sighed by closing his eyes when the girl was thrown, his heart clenched with pain. The Dark Lord wanted to shed tears upon the old barbarous traditional but couldn't do so.𝙛𝐫e𝚎wℯ𝗯𝒏𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄o𝚖
