On My Way: The Demon King Made Me His

Chapter 197: The Beginning

The heavens worked peacefully. The reign was satisfactory under Aenon and Rivera. Everyone was loved and respected. Everyone was given the rewards for their hardwork and appreciated. Beast King was embarrassed to meet the friend he betrayed but he managed to apologise. Emperor Aenon pardoned him but never got closer like the old days. He learned his lesson the hard way.

Things were normal and there were no kore mysterious murders in the heaven. The criminal well punished and locked up in prison. The question about Aqua always rose during the court meetings and that is when Aenon mustered up his courage and talked about his daughter.

"I want to let her live her dream and fly in her own wings, no she will not become the Crown princess of Celestial heaven, she will become what she want to, and the heir throne will be the one who is desitned to. A Celestial being itself, that is how we will choose the throne," Emperor Aenon told his ministers. Everyone appreciated the opinion.

Couple more days passed. Huo'er was super bored. He could not get in and out od Celestial Palace as he wished. And he often got caught by Emperor himself. It was embarrassing. 

"Don't repeat it again," Aenon always warned his son in law. "Have patience, you are a king," Huo'er would smile and disappear. But it dawned on his head. "I should go ask," he decided. He informed his mother, Lihua about going to ask Aqua's hand to Emperor and Lohua prepared for the small ceremony. They set out once Aenon accepted the request. 

Aqua was exited and happy. She ran around castle greeting all the workers in the palace. Her maids brought the dress for her to wear when the groom and family is going to visit her. A peach exclusive gown designed specially for her, designed by her. Milan, Aiden, and his parents had come to the Celestial Palace to be part of the moment. 

Huo and his mother with their group arrived on time and they had great welcome party. 

Huo'er's eyes searched for Aqua everywhere when he walked with the family towards the banquet hall. 

They settled down and called the bride. Aqua walked in. Huo'er's heart skipped a beat. He smiled and kept his wine glass down. She was made to sit opposite. She sat quietly. A coy young lady. She smiled and glanced at Huo'er often when the elders discussed about marriage.

Soon after lunch, Aqua and Huo escaped the room when no one noticed. They went to the pavilion at the back of the palace and sat there.

"Marry me," Huo'er proposed. He did not hesitate or waited any longer. Aqua was surprised. She did not expect him to propose this way and she felt the heart explode inside her chest.

"Yes," she replied. Huo kissed the hell out of her. She went breathless. Every minute she spent with him made her feel new and exciting like their first time. Nobody had any objections since it has been going on for decades.

The dates of the marriage was decided. The venue was also decided. 

Aqua and Milan spent days planning thr wedding and Huo often joined then during their free time. They decided to keep their distance and not sleep together until their marriage. 

Milan often mocked her sister about it. "Wait took you reach this stage my Queen," Aqua would mock back and Milan would gi silent instantly. "Oh by the way, take it slow and don't get pregnant before marriage, you are a queen now," Aqua reminded her casually.

"I know," Milan said and would get scared.

The marriage took place in the Celestial Palace. That morning, everyone woke early and prepared to witness the wedding that will make into history. 

Aqua was most beautiful bride in her maroon embroidered gown, the universe had ever witnessed. and The Coronation as the Demon Queen was planned to take place in the Demon's castle. For the first time, Aqua felt extremely tensed, just as happy as she was. To be the wife, to be the Demon Queen, she couldn't believe anything that was happening around her, to her , more importantly with him right next to her.

The ceremonies lasted long. It was tiring. But it was special to them. Taking each step and getting closer until Emperor Aenon kept his daughter's hands his. His heart exploded. He had never had any desires in this world except her. He was happy. Happier than any man in the universe. "I love you," he whispered often in Aqua's ears. She would blush each time and but luckily nobody could see them since she had the veil covering her face.

Huo'er and Aqua bid farewell to everyone at heaven and went back to Demon Realm. The people in the Realm were waiting for them eagerly. The celebrations began then. The bride and groom was welcomed with such merry and love. Who said demons do not have feelings and emotions. They did. More than humans. They were not always scheming and cruel. They also know to respect and live with dignity. Huo'er proved that to the world showing the way Aqua was welcomed. The coronation took place at the same day by evening. Every demon in the realm sent their blessing. The Queen took the throne. She raised her hand and willing chose the demonic way of living. Aqua was long the princess of Water Realm but the Empress of Hell, the Queen of Demon Realm. The ministers accepted her. No one was against her. Every one was happy that the koduth talented princess from heaven now belong to hell and they felt safe under her protection and Huo'er's. A security Demon Realm always wanted.

That wedding night, after the party, every one prepared the bed chamber of king and queen for consummation and pushed then into the room with wine and food behind. The door was also locked from the outside. Such traditions still existed in the Castle. Everyone was giggling and feeling happy.

Aqua and Huo blushed and looked at each other. Indeed the two looked tensed. They sat down for some minutes. They needed rest. It was a pretty long day.

Huo took the crown off her head and untied her hair that fell down to her shoulders. Aqua stood up and faced him.

"It still feels like a dream, a distant dream that came true, us, without objections," she said looking into his eyes. He stroked her hair and took her face in his hands.

"We no longer will have hindrances, we will no longer have to hide, get hurt, run away or die a second time, from the troubles," he said to her. This time his eyes glistened with tears. He was happy, extremely more than anyone could image, to have made her his. She reached up to his face and kissed him. She took the initiative. Her thoughts were loud and all about him. He lifted her in his arms and carried her to their bed, placing her down carefully. She took his royal robes off, keeping her hands on his chest, while he slowly undressed her from the queen's dragon gown customised just for her. He could only see perfection in her. While she saw the whole universe in his eyes. Their universe. He ran his fingers on her face smiling at her, looking into her eyes, admiring her, as his heart pounded fast with love and desire. She kneeling on the bed, wrapped her arms around him as he took her breath away, kissing her all over, stealing everything at once from her, unfolding her, the whole night. Just like fire on fire. He laid her down and whispered, in her ears "I love you," then they said that to each other again. "For all the years yet to come and forever." Aqua and Huo began to live a life they always wanted and craved. It was all just the beginning.

The good turned evil but the evil always remained good, always misunderstood and hated the most. With love, struggle, sacrifice, life and death. The wrongs were turned right. Aqua through her three life times made it all come true.

Sometimes it will be the least liked things, or greatly misunderstood beings who in the end might help and do good to you. And that happened in the lives of these people. The most respected fell down with massive failures, while the being forever cursed became the life and light of the thousands. Ultimately, with hopes, struggles, life and death, they had their way, all those fighters who believed, and who wasn't blind. They got their shares. And it was a happy ending to many.
