BOUND TO THE BEAST SEASON 2: CHAPTER 21 – 30
An hour later, Emeriel was in the courtyard, but her mind was far. She stood, staring blankly at the workers meticulously decorating her lantern, her thoughts consumed by King Daemonikai.
The sound of the door opening drew her attention.
As if summoned by her thoughts, he emerged from the house. His every movement exuded an air of lethal grace and authority.
With hands clasped behind his back, the white garment draping elegantly over his powerful frame, he strode towards her, stopping a few feet away.
“Your Grace?” Emeriel ‘s voice was a shaky whisper. Heavens, to be this close to him…
That intense gaze met hers once more. His voice a velvety rumble, he asked, “Would you take a walk with me?”

There was something captivating about the young woman standing before him.
Grand King Daemonikai observed the princess. Her wide, startled blue eyes, the nervous fidgeting. That amongst other things piqued his interest.
She was very beautiful—both in human and Urekai standards. Her luxurious black hair, cascading down to her waist, framed a delicate face with rosy lips that she chewed anxiously.
The way the velvet gown clung to her figure, revealing every subtle dip and swell, ignited a spark of unfamiliar…somthing within him.
However, it was not her beauty that had first caught his attention upon entering Lord Herod’s abode. It was her scent.
Princess Galilea had the most enticing scent he had ever encountered in a long time. It was a scent that drew him in. Made him crave more.
“Your Grace?” She rasped.
“I came out for some fresh air,” he explained. “Your betrothed is occupied with matters inside.
I was hoping you might show me around. It has been centuries since I last visited this estate.”
He noticed her nervousness increase. “Do not worry, Leah, you are not obligated to—”
“I’d like to,” she cut in, her voice barely audible.
Realizing she had spoken aloud, she blushed and cleared her throat.”I would like to, Your Grace,” she repeated, her voice steadier this time.
Daemonikai led the way, and she followed beside him. He was acutely aware of her presence, her captivating scent filling his senses.
She smelled of nature. Of lemongrass after a refreshing rain. Earthy, with a hint of a unique floral aroma that stirred something deep within him.
It was a combination of everything he loved about the natural world.
And for some inexplicable reason, she felt… familiar.
“Have we met before?” Daemonikai asked.
