On My Way: The Demon King Made Me His

Chapter 24: Waiting For..

You do things and it makes your dreams come true and you get exited and try to excute it well. But you forget the way you attained it. Your forget about the path you chose to achieve it. Good or evil.

To Volca she was well aware of what the did. Sometimes it broke her heart, but she still chose to do it all and keep going with it so that her wishes come true in twisted ways. She would smile her thoughts and bring the demoness nature in her, consoling her.

"Am not sorry, and I would not be," she would say it aloud often, reminding herself how inpeotan it is to remain strong. And she had nothing worry about getting on the good side of Demon King Dritan. She was happy that she let him know she is close with his son, the Demon Prince.

Volca stepped out of her bath, and covered herself in a robe. She then asked the maids for the designer clothes for the party and dressed up. She put on a black and purple gown with a long train behind her, and did her hair with the help of her personal maid. Her long silky black hair braided and decorated with hair clips. The maid placed her tiara made with rubies on her head, which is a gift from King Dritan. Something she never expected from him to present her with for her work. He also gave her a badge to pass through any parts of the Demon Castle as the Royal Inspector to have severe him well and found his son for him. He was grateful towards her. But she felt bad for him and pitied him.

Volca didn't listen to her mother and ran to the palace the moment she heard about the Return of Prince Huo to the Demon Clan. She let the King know how happy she was just like him to have Huo in the castle which made Dritan happy.

Volca prepared along with Dritan asking for more duties related to Huo to show her loyalty which surprised Fiona. She realised her daughter's heart. Love for Huo, sincerely, just like how she used to be when she was young.

Fiona's eyes filled with tears and she dismissed her thoughts immediately and wiped the tears. Fiona decided to realise her daughter's dream at any cost to not end up like her. Volca took care of preparing the bed chamber and bath are, the crokeries and giving institutions in kitchen about everything Huo'er prefer to eat.

Dritan spent his days counting for the arrival of his son and hold a welcome party for a few people. And he had made up his mind to invite the guests from Water Realm for clearing the troubles that laid on the path. He liked the way the crown princess acted up for his son, that even his own mother didn't dare to do, violating the rules.

He asked the palace servants and guards to make special arrangement at the stay area of the Water Realm deliberately putting them close to Huo'er's chamber. He had no intention of match making but he did not mind his son having an affair with this noble lady. He just didn't want them to complicate their lives like he did with his.

"Volca ask your mother to come meet me, and also make sure we have the tight security from here on, alert everyone, not a leaf should enter the palace without my permission, am handing over you that duty," Dritan entrusted Volca with a serious mission. Since it involved the protection and life of Huo,

Volca feeling happy agreed to it without saying a word and gave her all into the matter tripling the guards at each corner of the palace. She didn't even care to go back home and check on her mother once a while burying herself with work, all just for one person. But she often wondered why mother was no longer stopping her nor advising her.

And finally the day she was preparing for arrived. The day for the arrival of the Prince approached. Volca didn't sleep the whole night preparing for the best treatment Huo'er could ever get.

She ordered the kitchen maids to present all kinds of fruits with carving at the welcome feast, gallons of wine, chicken soup and roast for meal that he loves the most and rest of the food from the menu they had. She made sure everything goes out of the kitchen after three steps of food checking that would harm anyone.

She made sure all of his clothes were tailored, ironed and hung in his wardrobe. She chose them all herself the fabrics, the designs that would suit him the best and the accessories for his hair. She instructed the maids about how to handle each of these expensive clothes during washing, clean the accessories, jade pendants and she prepared for some hair dye unaware that Aqua had done it herself for him. She couldn't wait to get him back home and spend time with eventhough it troubled her to think whether he would ever trust her again.

Volca let go of her ugly thoughts and walked over to his bath area. She had people fill the pool with warm water for him to fresh up as he reaches the palace. She threw the rose petals she handpicked herself and let them afloat in the water to absorb the fragrance. She put some bath salts for him to relax and arranged the maids to massage while he takes the bath.

She suddenly felt a warm hand pulling her backward untieing the back of her gown, pushing them down the legs and carrying her to the water, to take bath together. His wild black eyes glistening with mischief and she fell in love right there.

Volca blushed red and pinched herself to wake up from her daydreams. 'oh my, so lustful! he is a prince' she reminded herself. 'I should behave properly and control my dirty thoughts,' she told herself and left the chamber as the guard came to report to her. She could not stop herself from smiling wide as steamy thought kept coming back to her head.
