“Fear. It is an emotion I have not felt in a very long time, but right now, it is prominent, reminding me that we all have a weakness. She is mine.”

Rosie

Rosie hates the way they look at her. As if they are better – prettier. Maybe it is so. Mother made sure that she was never accepted.

That's fine. I'm fine. That's what she tells herself.

The dreams of vile beings demanding justice are what occupies her mind. The monsters don't seem to go away. She doesn't understand what they want, but they crowd her mind, always demanding to be freed.

Now, there is the king, requesting her to be his personal maid while he stays at their village. That is her sister’s job, so why her of all people? Just like the evil beings in her dreams, the king scars her.

Adrian

Lucifer made a small request, but it is more than what Adrian, the Dark One, thinks it will be. Rosie, the beautiful woman who only seems to be in the woods is beautiful, but she is the daughter of the Underworld God – she is off-limits.
His job is to watch her only – make sure that she is powerful enough to live with Lucifer.

It was a mistake asking her to be his maid. Because now, he can't seem to get her out of his mind.
Lucifer will have Adrian dead if he dares touch his precious and only daughter, but with every passing day, Adrian wonders if dying will be worth having her affection for just a fleeing moment.
