Vampire Lord's Demonic Wives

'Oh shit! Why is mum coming upstairs? She could have just called me from the kitchen like usual.'

Zoravec was caught off guard regarding Hecate' approaching footsteps. It made him panicked and equally worried because he never brought any girl home. And on the top of that the gorgeous girl in his arms was a demoness! How could he hide her utterly different appearance from his mother!?

Zoravec immediately pushed her away from his chest while Devi stared at him blankly. Her emotionally vulnerable state had clouded her powers for a few minutes, and she failed to comprehend any other senses around her. She looked at Zoravec's pale terrified face with confusion, because according to her the whole situation should have been romantic.

"What happened?"

She held him by biceps and tried to inquire while her eyes never left his face. Devi could sense some voices when Zoravec's frightened expressions brought her out of that phase. But before she could do anything Zoravec came up with a plan.

"Devi, jump from the window and come inside the house from the door. Remember to ring the bell."

He instructed her in one single breath making the demoness curious yet disappointed. She wanted to be seen with him because of the personal one- sided liking she had towards Zoravec. However he had already grasped the critical situation that Devi was not going to leave him alone now. After all, who visits somebody sneakily from a window if they were going to spare the target!?

"But why? I don't plan on leaving your house."

She panicked immediately upon assuming that Zoravec had refused to be her host. And that's why he was driving her out of the house, Devi tried to sound convincing that she wouldn't leave, however her realm's rules said the opposite. Nonetheless Zoravec got some courage out of nowhere and held her face to repeat his words clearly.

"I'm not driving you out, Devi. Just go right now and come from the front door in twenty minutes, I will receive you there myself. Now go, hurry up!"

He lifted her up by supporting from the shoulders and pushed the demoness towards the window. Zoravec already understood that if she came into his room without being seen, then she could do it once again too which relieved him.

The doorknob voice fell into his ears and it opened, snagging Zoravec's attention. Hecate stared at her son who stood beside the window, totally stunned and terrified. Zoravec could not even turn around to confirm if Devi was gone or Hecate had already seen her. He assumed from his mother's expressions that he was busted for bringing a girl home.

Hecate stood there with her arms folded and raised her one eyebrow. The mother seemed genuinely angry with Zoravec as she called his name. But before she could scold him further Zoravec interrupted her.

"Mum I can explain, please. Don't be angry, I can…"

He took smaller steps towards Hecate assuming his mother was infuriated upon seeing Devi.

But Hecate shook her head and resumed the lecture once again, which cleared out all the misunderstanding which was Zoravec's self- assumption.

"How many times have I told you not to sleep in your uniform? I have heated up the food twice by now, and here you are still dawdling like a fool. Hurry up and change, I should see you downstairs in twenty minutes, young man."

Hecate walked inside the room and headed straight towards the bed where Zoravec had thrown his bag. She constantly nagged him and put it in the place, her normal behaviour made him suspicious that Zoravec carefully averted his stare towards the window. It was opened and the curtains were parted, the results were clear which relieved him.

'Phew, she finally left. Why the fuck did I tell her to come from front door!? She followed my words obediently, I should have just told her to fuck off. Gaaah!'

Zoravec was in his own reverie, brewing tons of assumptions regarding Devi. He clearly underestimated the demoness and supposed she had obeyed him. When in fact she just avoided the current mess only to stir one in a few minutes.

"Are you going to stand there like a statue or what? Move your ass to the bathroom!" ƒ𝐫𝒆𝐞w𝗲𝚋𝗻૦𝘷e𝙡.c𝑜𝙢

Hecate yelled and Zoravec immediately followed. He could not afford to offend his mother or he had to stay without food throughout the night. Zoravec dashed towards the bathroom leaving her alone in the room, when Hecate suspected something was definitely wrong with her son.

She headed downstairs while Zoravec hurriedly changed his clothes and ran towards the kitchen. He could not afford to leave his mother alone, acknowledging that if Devi was nearby them, then other demons could approach their house soon too.

'I can't leave mum alone, what if she really rang the bell?'

Zoravec regretted saying those words to her, as he thought carefully over his actions while sitting on the table.

Hecate prepared the food and set the table, and as usual she questioned him about the school after hearing about his fight with Pike again. It was evident that she suspected something and knew about the stalkers, but perhaps Hecate wanted to keep his son away from the mess. Zoravec tried to sound normal with his mother during the whole conversation to avoid any suspicion.

Hecate settled in the opposite chair to her son and both of them began to eat. Zoravec's eyes constantly went towards the clock tucked on the wall behind Hecate. He estimated how much time it would take for Devi to approach the front door, but for some reason the demoness was taking longer which made Zoravec brew his desired conclusion.

'It seems she really left. Hehe, good for me.'

He thought while stuffing his mouth whereas Hecate keenly observed his facial expressions. It was the moment when the bell rang, forcing Zoravec to pause his hand which was holding the spoon. Hecate clearly saw his expressions changing and stood up to answer the door. Whereas Zoravec hurriedly chewed his food to stop his mother.
