Human Weakness
Something deep within me told me to take her to my castle and make her mine. She was of age, very attractive for a human, and I am the only person that knows her so well. What person would appreciate the genuine smile that spread across her face when she handed someone a flower? This was preposterous; a Great Lord of the West would not follow in his father's footsteps. Emotions are useless human weaknesses, there was no need for a demon Lord to posses such shortcomings. A word I've never heard my ward utter then flew out of her delicate mouth, jolting me from my thoughts.
