Chapter 35 continued
When Cole Turner flamed into the underworld.. Which to us humans looks like a massive manky underground lair..
It certainly gives a whole new meaning to man cave.. Except here they don't exactly have Snow White to clean up after them but then again maybe that's what they need Colette for...Keep on reading to find out.
Everyone was bickering with each other. Cole sighed at looked at the seer. "What the hell is going on.."
The seer emptied her throat. "They are a little unsettled sire.. They believe that you aren't ready to lead and some of them.. I'm naming no names want to take your seat of power."
He yells above the voices. "Enough!!." As the other Demons become silent, his voice echoes throughout the caves.
"I assure you.. I am ready to lead.. I am you're new source and you will do well to know your place unless of course.. You'd rather spend eternity in the Demonic Wasteland."
Every demon knows and fears the demonic wasteland. It's where Demons go when they are vanquished. The wasteland itself is on another plane of existence and is full of red ash almost like another planet.
It inhabitants other Demons and there is a snake that devours you and your powers.
Some of the Demons bowed down respectively but others stayed standing.
One of the Demons with blonde spiky hair stepped forward. "Excuse me your eminence but the others aren't exactly confident you are fit to lead.. After all you're in love with a charmed one."
Cole looks at the demon and gives him a death stare. "I assure you.. I have my Human half controlled nevertheless my plans have now changed.."
Some decided to bow whilst the rest remained in unconvinced. They certainly didn't want to die at the hands of a charmed one or by the hands of the source but this was their life and their job but funnily enough when one demon dies another is quickly replaced.
But all the Demons agreed that going up against the charmed ones was a Suicide mission. It's been known that the source was always enemies with the three witches long before the source has taken over Cole.
Cole of course had tried to fight the source taking over him but then he embraced his new destiny as the source encouraged by The seer of course.
Cole sighs. "I don't have to explain myself to you imbeciles.."
He flames out of the underworld and flames back into the penthouse.
Little did he know.. The Demons had followed him in exactly the same manor.
Cole grabbed the nearest Demon and pinned him against the wall. He summoned a fireball with his hand.
He was about to throw it at the Demon next to him.. In order to set an example when Colette walked in.
"Cole.. Wait!! Don't!."
Cole looked at her and growls. "Stay out of this.. This doesn't concern you.."
She crossed her arms. "This doesn't concern me?.. I'm sorry did you want me to join you're team or what?."
He stared at her for a moment. "Obviously I do."
She rolls her eyes. "Then obviously you need me.. Now what is the problem."
Cole swallows while squeezing his grip on the demon. "They are having a few issues with loyalty.. "
The seer flames into the room. "If I might sire.."
Cole nodded. "Yes seer?."
She smiles. "Perhaps there is a way to get the Demons loyalty and trust back."
He looks at the demon. "You move one inch an your toast literally.."
The Demon swallowed hard and nodded standing still like a statue.
Cole turns to face the seer. You were saying?.."
She walks toward him. "Perhaps if you were to have a queen maybe that would help."
The Demons all nod in agreement.
Cole looks at the Demons. "Leave me.."
The Demons flame out together back to the underworld.
Colette stares at both The seer and Cole. Then it hits her. "Oh I know exactly what she's getting at.."
She shakes her head. "No way.. No.. This isn't what I signed up for and when I say signed up for.. I didn't exactly sign up willingly."
Cole Scoffs "Change the record will you."
Colette looked at him seriously. "I mean it.. Nothing and I mean Nothing would make me want to marry you.. No potions or spells or nothing..This conversation is over.."
He grabs her by the arm. "It's over when I say it's over..Me and you will talk about this later."
He lets her go and nods at the seer. The seer flames out to the underworld.
He speaks to the guards outside Colette's room. "She is not to leave this building.. Otherwise I'll be forced to use other methods to contain her and you two will be joining our old friends in the wasteland."
They bowed. "We will not fail you sire."
Cole flames out and returns to the underworld.
He finds the Demon that undermined him earlier. "How dare you undermine me in front of my future wife."
The Demon strutters. "I'm.. I'm sorry I didn't know.."
Cole shakes his head at the Demon. "Sorry isn't good enough.."
He summons a fireball and throws it at him.
The Demon screams in agony with flames all around him. He then gets sucked underground.
The only evidence of the killing was a black sorch mark on the floor. Like a bonfire gone wrong.
Cole looks around at the other Demons.. "Has anyone else got any loyalty issues and would like to join our old friend in the wasteland or would you rather stay alive?."
Simultaneously and partly out of fear.. They bowed.
Cole smiled at the Seer. "Now to get the ball rolling on the plan.. So to speak.
