The Demon’s Bride Chapter 372
Advertisement
The next day, the sun rose high up, coloring the night sky by a baby blue color with blushes of clouds. The first golden ray of the morning covered the land of Warine. As spoken by Ian yesterday, people who were invited prepared themselves early in the morning for the upcoming hunting game. Elise woke up early, finding Ian had moved his hand from under her neck, and that he had left her side. But Elise could still feel the warmth on the surface of the bed next to hers, finding his traces.
"Wake up, sleepyhead," Ian's voice came beside her, on the opposite side of where her body had turned, causing Elise to find him beside her in startle as she thought he wasn't in the room, "You thought you were alone?" asked Ian, his smile quirking to a grin.
"I didn't know you were here," Elise answered, because she couldn't feel his presence. "How do you do that?"
Ian brushed his hands over her hair, feeling the texture of Elise's hair, "Do what?" He asked clueless to her question.
"Erasing your presence. I cannot feel you here," Elise confessed. No matter how sharp her senses have became, she could never suppress Ian's levee of power. She knew he had been a unique person, but now that she was aware of herself being a Demon, the clear power strike difference came clear to her grasps.
"That's because I wasn't here earlier," Ian confirmed, "I just came here through teleportation, come on up, drink first," Ian offered, he placed his hand on the back of her body and put a pillow so she could leaned on the headboard. His careful movement made Elise all giddy.
"Thank you," Elise took the drink. "Where did you go?" She then asked, curious.

"To pick up the clothes for your first hunt. Unlike most ladies who would be holding parasols, hiding in the shades, sitting while drinking, you are going to come with me to hunt and your dress will only hinder you from doing your upmost best during the hunt," and Elise nodded, but she didn't know what kind of dress did Ian meant. During the time she hunt in her town, she didn't have the privilege to choose or create dresses by the tailor, and had used her father's clean clothes consisting of a man's slack. She didn't know there was a hunting clothes and was fascinated by the idea.
"How was your dream?" Ian then asked her instead, "Did you sleep well?"
"I slept well, there was no dream," and it was the best for her now who was still confused after her memories were restored by Heaven.
"Wonderful then, it means you are having a very good sleep. I can wait here and watch you change your clothes but that would also mean testing myself which I would restrain because sleeping with you last night was enough test for my thin patience. I will wait for you to change below, take your time," receiving a kiss on her forehead, Elise waved him goodbye.
As Ian left, maids came to the room to help Elise wear her dress. It was her first time helped by the maid as she would usually dress herself or helped by Ian. To her being helped dressing make her feel awkward but the awkwardness soon fade as Mila was there amongst the maid who tended her needs.
It didn't take a while for Elise to come out, dressed in a pant with her upper clothes and coat made lower at the back and the end to make it seem puffy like a skirt. Her red hair was tied in a high ponytail, the side of her hair was braided to give more look.

Ian watched her with a smile, with more days passing, Elise had grown to be far stronger than before, evolving faster than anyone he knew. He was glad that Elise was great at adapting to the new lifestyle she gained but today would be one of her test as this would be her first proper attendance to the noble's world.
"How do I look?" asked Elise, she wasn't able to look at the mirror as many maids covered her body, and wearing pant was rare for women in the land.
"Gorgeous," Ian replied without needing a second to think of his answer, "So gorgeous that I am afraid once you stepped on the hunting ground, you wouldn't be hunting for animals but men's heart involuntarily."
Elise couldn't help but blush over Ian's smart and witty reply, "I think you are biased."
"Believe me I am not," Ian showed his hand up to prove his innocence, "And you should know me better than anyone, I don't lie especially to you. Men are much more simpler than you thought, of course, aside from me as I am built differently unlike my father. They like what is beautiful often disregarding the fact that the beautiful creature belongs to someone else or that he already had someone else like my father did."
"But there are men like you," Elise answered, chuckling as Ian took hold of her hand, leading her to the carriage.
"Yes, but to the people who would come to the hunting ground, I am one of a kind," Ian pulled his smile, tugging the corners so his canines would show.
"Milord! Milady!" A sudden call came from their left side. Curious, Elise turn her head to see it was Johannes, the man who always took care of the stable and shed. Under Ian's gaze, Johannes have seen the Lord by glimpse from afar but upon seeing the man in flesh for the first time, he suddenly felt the pressuring force and immediately corrected himself by bowing.
"What is it?" came Ian's indifference voice, wondering what had make the stableman to have his tail on fire.
"I-It's the bear!" Johannes came back to recall what he had wanted to warn the two of, "The bear that you brought, Milord, have just waken up from his sleep and begin to sent chaos!"
Following Johannes's voice, a loud growl echoed from one side of the castle. Elise fainted during the time Hallow came and meet her as a bear, therefore she was confused by what bear Johannes spoke of, "Bear?" She asked Ian who was smiling in mirth.
"Oh yes, I forgot about him," Ian said insincerely, "Let's go and meet him before he scream and howl like wolf when he isn't one."
