The Demon Lord Is Now A Cat?! (GL)
Chapter 7: The witch and the demon lord\'s bride.
on the demon lords most prized possession. The portrait that she has held before… if she didn know who Isabella was perhaps she wouldve been dead or cursed with bad luck forever.
So she doesn know but Lucinda owes her a lot for this one.
Isabella on the other hand was fiddling with her phone trying to see if she can shift schedules with work because the daycare center will be having a small play with all the kids. She needs to attend and support her little sister. Truly she was one busy woman.
”H-Hey Isabella! Do you have time? ”
A boy stops her from walking. It was the classmate who has a crush on Isabella. The girl didn notice and bumped his chest. ”Whoah- oh no! Not my phone! ” it almost fell out of her grasp but thankfully she caught it mid air.
”Whew. ” she sighs in utter relief because if this dropped she doesn have money to buy a new phone and finally she gives the person in front of her the attention he wanted but perhaps her gaze was not too kind.
”Jake… you again. ” (Isabella) recognizes the boy who bumped into her.
It was the same classmate who tried asking her out on a movie.
It seems that he can never take a hint, his other friends were on the side cheering him on trying to hype him up to ask the cold scholarship girl who clearly had no time for love.
”Please I need to go- ”
Jake bows down with chocolates in hand and offers it to the girl with a dumbfounded look. ”For you! This is for you! Please have it! ”
”??? ”
The witch Lucinda also watched at the side, her smile turning into a grin looking at two humans committing a courting ritual. It was always chocolates and some sort of silly confession. ”Oh my, looking at him though. That flustered look is adorable but I don take the demon lord don take kindly for anyone trying to take her marked territory. ”
Clearly… theres a mark on Isabella already and she could feel the demon lords presence radiating off of her. The other demons would have to think twice before they try messing with Isabella Insley.
”But lets see how this one will go. ” (Lucinda) takes out her phone and records the entire thing.
Isabella looks around her. Another crowd of whispers and cheering for her to take the chocolates and just date already was heard. ”I… um… ” (Isabella) was not one for public confession or intimacy.
This kind of action… made her feel anxious and made her mind blank out.
Should she accept? Everyone else is watching- if she doesn accept- what will everyone think of her- she needs to get home and pick up Emily from daycare before-
A whole minute passed and there was no reply. Jake was already feeling a little numb from bowing down so he looked up a little to see Isabella just frozen in place, possibly thinking of what to say but nothing came out of her mouth.
Lucinda watches in pain as this human courting ritual thing is not working out. Jeez, the mans feelings are one-sided from the looks of it. ”Well time to pay back what I owe Isabella for this one. ” (Lucinda) sighs, pressing the video recorder off.
”Heyyy~! Omg where have you been! I have been trying to find you everywhere. I can believe you forgot we were scheduled for our daily mani pedi~ bestie! ” she grabs a hold of Isabellas arm and swings it around with a little pout. ”Jeez! I can believe I would see you here getting confessed to. ”
”W-Who are- ” she turns to look at Lucinda and with that colorful pink hair of hers that seemed to have taken everyones attention of how beautiful she was.
”If you want to get out of here without upsetting your social life. Just come with me and play along now. ” (Lucinda) whispers at Isabellas ear who nodded in understanding.
She… was saving her but who is she even-
”Oh my gosh- are those chocolates? Aren you allergic to them? Don you have like issues with sweet things? ” the witch covers her mouth in shock.
Isabella stares at her and thinks, out of all the things you could do as an excuse. You had to drag one of the things she loves the most. It was chocolates. ”… ” (Isabella)
Lucinda nudges her sides seeing that the girl had turned completely silent once more. ”Y-Yes I have trouble eating too many sweets and Im on a diet. Im sorry I can accept your lovely gift. ” she tells Jake, the popular boy who looks like he was about to cry.
He really tried his best researching on what Isabella likes and even got her favorite chocolate but- he didn know she was on a diet!
”Yeah can you see? Youll get my bff plumpy chubby. Now shoo~ we have an appointment to go to. ” (Lucinda) does a little sassy wave before putting her arms around Isabellas shoulders dragging her out onto the gates of the school.
Isabella looked at him guiltily before bowing a little at Jakes direction before letting herself get pulled by the pink haired girl who just laughed at what happened. ”Aw man that was so like- totes funny. I can believe that worked. ”
Isabella wasn keen on the new stranger who helped her out. Sure she was thankful but this is oddly peculiar because they have never seen each other before and so she grew suspicious. ”Thank you for getting me out of that but I was handling it perfectly fine. ” (Isabella) removes the arms that were around her shoulder and the witch pouts.
”Aw come on. Handling that perfectly fine? You were frozen like a small popsicle stick out there. Ghorl if I didn come in and saved you, you wouldve been trending number one on our class page for rejecting the most popular guy in school. ” (Lucinda) crossed her arms and looked at the girl she so saved from public humiliation.
Really if Lucinda was not there, Isabella wouldve been labeled as the ungrateful girl of the school.
Jake Lopez, the most popular guy in school and dubbed the sweetest guy youll ever meet. He started developing feelings for Isabella because she helped her get a book recommendation from a library and that was just it.
Slowly he started getting butterflies and wanted to pursue the girl. ”I don even like him… ” (Isabella) blurted out.
”I can see that- jeez. I just wanted to help… Can a girl help out another girl who looks uncomfortable? ” (Lucinda) pouts further and Isabella tilts her head, finding the girl in front of her a little amusing and funny.
”Whats your name then? I haven seen you around school. ” (Isabella)
”Oh my- from the looks of it scholarship girl youll never notice me because of your reputation of sticking your nose at books all the time. I heard you barely even look up when the teacher calls your name. ” (Lucinda) teased the girl but after seeing a serious look from the other party she just coughs and offers her hand to shake. ”Ahem. Lucinda Lockheart, pleasure. ”
Isabella lets out a little smile before taking her hand in hers giving it a firm shake. ”Isabella Insley. May I treat you to some snacks in exchange for saving me? ”
”Oh ghorl- you got me snacks. Ill be an idiot to turn you down, lets go to eight/twelve. Ill take up that offer for an ice cream. ” (Lucinda) laughs around with a toothy grin before walking towards the side of the road after seeing the green light. ”Come on! ”
”Oh… wait! Can I pick up my sister before I can treat you? ” (Isabella) asked a little worried that shell say no but to her surprise.
Lucinda stopped running around at the pedestrian lane and came back hastily once she heard she needed to pick up her sister and agreed. ”Lets go pick up your sister then! The ice cream can wait! ”
Thank you to my patreun!
