“I knew I would have to do some things that wouldn’t be forgiven. I knew it when you asked me to go to Hayll, but I did it anyway. F-for you. Because I was going to come back to you, and the rest of it wouldn’t matter, B-because I was coming back to you. But you sent me there knowing you…
*Daemon,* the Priestess said, *the Lady is willing to have you as her mate. Do you promise to be her friend and lover? Do you promise to protect her from enemies?*
“I promise,” Daemon replied. He called in the sapphire ring and slipped it on Jaenelle’s finger. “Let this token be a symbol of my commitment to honor, cherish, and protect, to be friend, lover, and husband. This I promise…with everything I am.”
When he drew her into his arms and kissed her, he forgot about standing in a meadow, forgot about who was watching, forgot everything but her…
…until a young voice close to his lap said, *Are they going to mate now?*
Since his libido was rising a little to eagerly, he started to step back-and got stabbed in the ass by a little unicorn’s horn.
“It could have been worse,” Jaenelle said
“How?”
“You could have been facing the other way.”
"It wasn’t the splotches of bright pink, blue, and mauve in her golden hair that broke his control. It wasn’t even the streaks of green, which made no sense since they weren’t part of the original spell Karla was trying to fix. It was the fact that the colored hair had also corkscrewed and… sproinged… out from her head.
Hence Lucivar’s comment about demented sheep
"
"Daemon closed his hand around his father’s. So little power left sustaining that flesh, that mind. So little holding the Self to this life.
The Black absorbed that power between one breath and the next, and Saetan Daemon SaDiablo, Prince of the Darkness and High Lord of Hell, became a whisper in the Darkness.
