Soul Mates
Prologue
The origin of it was not known. It has existed in the world before even the oldest demons. The Soul bond. It is said that it was created as a way to create some peace between the demons and humans. The bond was a link between two beings who were fated to be with one another. Soul mates. These soul mates were born into the world as all beings are and the only indicating link between them was a matching mark on their bodies. The mark's shape varied depending on the pair of soul mates. When the fated pair were near each other, the marks would in some way let the soul mates know that they are close to one another and if they found each other, they would be together and find happiness.
Though the idea of the soul bond was appealing, many did not approve of this as demons did not believe in being so intimately bonded to such weak creatures and the humans believed that demons were evil. Many sought a way to break this bond and after many years, there was a way. But very few knew of where and how to break the bond and the taboo ritual eventually was thought to die away and none knew how to break the bond anymore.
Thousands of years have passed since then and the demons' and humans' relationship with each other have gotten significantly better but are still very much separated. There is a demon and human council that runs both the demon and human world. They help maintain peace and created the Peace Laws. These laws are to be followed by all demons and humans, some laws differing based on if you were a human or demon and what kind of demon.
Though there's a demon council, there is a demon king that rules over all of the underworld including the demon council. A demon king with flaming red hair and piercing gold eyes. This king is feared and respected by all of the underworld and though he is said to be invincible and powerful, even he is not exempt from the soul bond all beings are destined with.
He is a demon and she is a human. They were never meant to be together but as time moves forward and they slowly discover one another, destiny's clock continues to tick and their fates slowly but surely intertwine with one another, tying them both into a fate neither imagined…
