On My Way: The Demon King Made Me His

The sky was clear with no signs of storm, the water supply more than enough for the heavenly beings and in hell. Apparently King Aenon seem to doing a great though he hasn't been staying long in the Realm. Aqua got back home quickly before her absence alerts the palace. She felt content and relieved.

The longing when you're in love hits a different level. To Aqua it was the same. The moment she resurrected and as she got her memories back, Huo was the only thing that ran through her mind. She couldn't think of anything else, do anything better and dashed out immediately when nobody was keeping a watch her.

Aqua met him, talked to him, understood well and accepted each other even after decades. But that wasn't the only case. There were things she had yet to know. And for the actions, she had to face the consequences. Aqua had no idea how her life is going to turn into.

"Aqua, why did you go and visit him?" her father questioned. "Who have you the permission?"

"Don't you know why? Whose permission should be getting," she asked him back, against him, for the second time in her life time.

"You don't know anything," he said. "How dare you do things without asking your parents? Is it not enough that you have died once already and somehow managed to get back to heaven? Aenon was red with anger. He couldn't believe that her daughter was still the same, doing things that did not suit her position. Also he hated the fact that it is for Huo again.

"What?" Aqua got curious. "Pa I don't get it? What's the issue here?"

"Sister I think we have a lot of catching up to do with you," Milan told her interrupting the heated conversation. Milan took her sister back to her chamber and gave her medication. Aqua took them willingly and settled down on her bed. She drank some warm water later and tried to sit straight, overcoming the tiredness in her body.It was hard though, every inch of her body hurt her, and it appeared that Crystals are splitting and increasing in number to correct her flow and meridians. Aqua pretended to be fine and listened to her sister carefully.

"Ever since that incident, we gathered all the crystals we could find, it was less anyway and brought them to store at the Sea Palace. But half of them were given away to Huo by you and we couldn't take them back. Few months later, we felt changes in the crystals and soon found out about a jar that you had given Huo. We had to buy a demon guard for the news. It was taken by Volca from Huo'er's chamber, she used them for him for his reincarnation," Her father was listening along as Milan went on with the story.

"I have him around the time he took off to Hell and his coronation, it was gift, I always had a feeling then about something bad going to happen to all of us," Aqua recalled from her memory and told them.

"Why would you do that? Don't you know you sinned and almost killed yourself?" Her father shouted at her again.

"I know," Aqua replied and remained silent.

"Within a year, we discovered that Huo has been brought back and his body is preserved using your blood since you both had a connection developed with genes. He woke up and he remained cool. He didn't try to search for you. He dealt everything smoothly and did not dare to offend the Emperor. They developed a better connection. Empress never cared about you again, nor thankful. You were eventually forgotten. On the other hand, Empress saved his life by threatening how she will self harm her. Afraid of it, the Emporer made an oath to never bother Huo again, though hatred was deep rooted in his heart," Milan went on. "But, ever since he woke, he was acting different and always kept Volca with him. We were never allowed to meet nor converse, and also he did not like us either,"

"Father hated him since then, Huo belonged to only you, he got you pregnant and you died for him, but he let it go just like that and walked with god knows why her, Volca. You did not get valued enough. He pretended like he didn't know any of us, it is still a wonder if I think about it," Milan told her sister. "Everybody said maintained an intimate relationship with Volca,"

"How could he remember when my crystals controlled his body through my mind when I was unconscious." Everybody looked at her, worried.

"He had his soul in me and my crystals live in him, we didn't kill each other, we just temporarily saved each other." Aqua looked at them asking them to be understanding about the situation. "You can't misunderstand that, he entered the memory world long with me, he was kept under the shadows, until now, he killed Fiona the first thing he restored his memories, '" She informed everyone.

"But he is not himself, see, he killed Fiona just like that, he kills whenever someone stands oh his way, he doesn't care about anyone," Milan told her. "We can't even recognize him anymore,"

"Enough," Aqua wasn't liking it. She didn't wish to hear bad stuff anymore. She grew scared of things she was hearing about him. But she chose to trust him unaware of certain truths. She felt weak and wished to lie down. She taking a deep breath, opened her eyes and looked at her father. "King Dritan must have been murdered," she looked serious. "Huo'er seems to have no idea about it, he is going to investigate,"

"No, he won't find anything," Aenon said.

"Why is that?" Aqua asked. Milan exchanged her glances between her father and sister.

"There is nothing to find," Aenon was hesitating to speak.

"Make it clear, what is it? she gre impatient.

"He was not murdered," Aenon said and looked away. "That's why he cannot find anything. His father, Dritan died to save Huo'er's soul from disappearing, he used his soul to contain his son's and he disappeared, eventually, " Aqua couldn't believe what she just heard.

"What?" Aqua asked.

"I was with him when he did it, and also when he faded," Aenon said.

"Can you not tell Huo about this? He is still searching for the answer, it might upset him way too much," Aqua requested him. That was the first thing that came into her mind.

"He is not the same, listen to me, he is not the same Huo'er you once knew, he is a danger to you, don't let him come near you, he preserves his life using you," her father kept warning her. "He came here numerous times for the crystals we had in here. We did not let him in,"

"Pa, relax, he is not a threat, I know you are concerned about me, I understand, he does want my Crystals for now, but with Shifu's help we might be able to do something. It's his soul that am preserving my life with. That why I took time," she assured her father.

Aenon nodded though he did not agree with her and sat next to her.

"Can you tell me about how all of you ended up in earth with me?" she repeated those same words again. "How come we were a family there?"

"It was nothing," Milan said instead. "We searched for you everywhere, for years. Two years after Huo woke up. We were sure the crystals have been activated somewhere so far away. We decided to leave the Realm to extend our search. Tai did not agree to it, but we went against him anyway in the name of mourning, and secretly kept going with the search," Milan explained every single detail. "We travelled by chance to earth, Aiden and I, and we found a child who had your same qualities when you were born, we created a family changing into them, and we lived together, But we did not expect you to die there though, you saved a child, it was shocking, but do you know who that was?" Milan asked her. Aqua knew it instantly.

"Mine," Aqua sat down on her bed again. She wasn't expecting that. Tears filled her eyes. Her heart ached when she thought about. Her happy times with Huo'er and her child everyone killed together. It broke her heart. To think everything that could have turned good ended before it even started. Aqua smiled and sat there, trying to stop her thoughts. Milan hugged her sister, consoling her.

"We did want to know why you hid it, but your mother and I we decided to let it go, let's not mention the past again,"

"We were scared how you would react and afraid that it might make Huo do things, she did not want that to happen, nothing else to explain pa," Milan detailed it to her father.

"Milan, enough," But Milan didn't listen to her sister.

Aenon took a deep breath looking at his daughters, shook his head, "Don't repeat any mistakes again, I won't let thing go easily this time," he warned and walked out of the chamber.

Aqua looked at Milan helplessly. "You know am not give up on Huo'er don't you," Milan took a deep breath and laughed.

"I know," she said and asked her sister to rest.
