No one's P.O.V

"Daddy.." Tamori called out to Tord as she sits up from her bed, her purple ears were drooped down and her purple tail stopped wagging.

Tord poked his head out of her door. Large red horns coming out of his head as his black tail was tightly tuck in his trousers, "Yes, Sweety?" Tord replied as he walked over to his daughter and sat beside her.

"Will you tell me a bed time story?" Tamori asked as she held her Tomee bear tight, her long pruple claws digging right through the bear. Tord chuckles gently as he slowly lays Tamori back to her bed and drape the blanket over her.

"Oh sure, Sweety. I'm just gonna go and get a book." Tord said as he stood up slowly but was quickly stopped when Tamori grabbed his red sleeves. Tord looks down at her. He noticed how her purple ears sprung straight up, "Can you tell me a story about humans?"

Tord stiffened, his heart started beating fast and he started sweating.

"Why would you wanna hear that?" Tord asked as he forces a wide smile on his face, showing his long fangs and sat back on her bed. Tamori looks up to him, "I just.. wanna know.." Tamori replied followed by a whimper.

Tord patted her head gently, "Well would you like to hear a story where a human and a demon like us, fell in love?" Tord asked, He saw how Tamori's face quickly lit up as she nodded.

"Well.."

------

There was once a Demon, who like any other demons, hated humans. But unlike the others of his kind, he never had the intention to kill them or draw them into the underworld. He absolutely hated them so much that he didn't bother going out of the underworld just to take look at them.

One day, His father, The Demon King sent him away into the surface and forbid him to come back until he had killed the most beautiful human he could find. So like what his father wants, he ventured around the surface seeking for the most beautiful human.

21 days passed and he still found none. Every human he met meant nothing to the beauty he was seeking for.

Not until.. when darkness swallowed the sky, a humble human bumped into him. He was wearing a dark cloak, blue t-shirt, ripped jeans and checkered converse. As both of their eyes met, both of them stared. The demon saw two completely black eyes and the human saw two beautiful silver eyes.

The stare only lasted for seconds, but for them it felt like an eternity. Then after that the human apologized to the demon and excused himself as he reached out for his phone as he was about to leave. But the demon asked him to stay. Soon after that they started opening up to each other.

Telling stories to each other, jokes, adult stuff. It was the moment where the demon finally found who was the most beautiful human in the surface. He didn't question it, he knew the human was a male but he just couldn't help falling for him.

Weeks passed and their friendship soon grew into true love when the demon finally revealed himself to the human, who and what he really was and what were his true intentions were. He thought the human would leave him and run away, but the human didn't.

In fact, it made the human fell more in love with the demon because of how much courage the demon gathered to tell him the truth.

The demon felt happy, for the first time he felt true happiness and true love. They even decided to create a beautiful baby girl to which they proudly raised. They kept on promising each other neverending happiness..

To which never happened.

"What do you mean, daddy?" Tamori asked as she looked up to her father with such sad eyes, Tord scratched the scars on his cheek as he smiled,

"For the Demon King forbid their love and forced war towards his son. To which his son lost and have gained multiple permanent scars on his face and body. The human escaped with the baby and ran away to be safe, just as what his lover had wanted." Tord continued,

"But then the Demon King stole the baby from the human and kept the baby in the underground where he locked up his son." Soon his words trailed off as his gazed started to drop sadly.

"And.. what happened next? What happened to the human? Their child?" Tamori asked as she shakes her father's arm gently making Tord snap back,

"Daddy, did they ended up like our family?.." Tamori continued, her ears and tail went numb,

"Broken?" She continues as tears started to form in the corners of her eyes. Tord quickly gave her a smile and pull her in a gentle hug,

"No.. of course not. The Demon was able to break himself and his daughter free then escaped to the surface. Where he and The human were reunited shortly. Their baby girl was finally announced as a half breed demon and human. The demon finally confronted his father and that time.. he was not alone. His lover and his daughter were with him." Tord paused as he gives Tamori a peck on her forehead.

"What happened then?"

"Their love bloomed. And finally their promise was finally coming true and they lived happily ever after." Tord finished as she looked over to his daughter who already drifted to sleep. He smiled as he gently lay her down on her bed and cover her with a blanket. Putting her stuffed teddy bear beside her.

Tord then quickly stepped outside his daughter's room, walking through the empty castle hallway,

"King Tord, we received a message from..." His loyal servant, Edd paused when he noticed how different his King was acting. Edd's friend, Matt pulled him back gently, "Let the king be for now, Edd. He.. has been through a lot." Matt whispered as they both watched their King's silhouette slowly disappeared.

Tord kept walking to his room where he finally broke down and cried.

"To which it never happened.."
