Chapter 14 He Came

• The day she dreads to come has come whether she likes it or not. She obviously has not slept even for just a second in the hopes that Daemon will come for her and save her but he didn't come for her. By the time, the sun rose, Devon has already made up her mind. She will lose her life by herself or she will lose it to her own family.
• “The ceremony will just happen here in our mansion, Devon.” Melena looked fondly at her daughter at the vanity mirror where a make-up artist is preparing her. She touched Devon’s hair. “My baby is really getting married.”
• “I am already married.” Tears welled up in Devon’s eyes again. “I married Daemon. And you didn’t get to witness how secured I felt when I wore his ring. You weren’t there when I felt so relieved to be able to do it my own way. To finally have a choice. Daemon might be cruel but he does not force someone. He’s not even my family, he is a stranger but he knows what I wanted more than my own mother.”
