Prologue

    A young demon girl sat in the boat that was to take her to Japan from China. The girl's father had told her " There are no demons worth your hand in marriage. You must find a husband in Japan no matter what they say here." She remembered her father's words so well he would never give her away to a man that did not deserve her, Never!

"Su-yin, miss Su-yin we're almost there, miss Su-yin are you listening?" asked one of the boat hands.

"Hum, oh yes sorry I was thinking of my father. We're almost there, how marvellous take us to shore soon then please." The young girl told him.

Su-yin was a very beautiful girl she looked like no other girl in China she was blond. Her hair was long straight, but unlike the women of high power she did not have taped feet. Her father had refused this torture to be done on his daughter. 'He had asked how is she to be a powerful demon if she cannot walk?'

Su-yin was proud of knowing that as a dog-demon she could be powerful and never hide her small dog-ears from the public eye. She wished that one day she could find a young man to cherish her and her ears without fearing her.

Su-yin was only sixteen but without a brother she had to be married to inherit her fathers money. She knew her father did not want any of his fortune going to his family when he died so Su-yin had to get married to save it from falling into the wrong hands.

Not many young maidens had this problem Su-yin had to be loyal to her father and herself. She had to find a young man that would be strong enough to fight off her enemies and gentle enough to love her. Not many demon men have those qualities her father had said so she must chose wisely.

"Excuse me mister boatman how long until we get to shore?" Su-yin questioned the captain shyly never having been on a boat so long in her life.

"Su-ling do you think I'll be able to find a husband of good worth in Japan?" Su-yin questioned her young servant and companion. Su-ling was young and short compared to her mistress and always wore her long black hair straight down. Su-ling also wore many plain kimonos that did not compliment her beauty; also Su-ling never raised her face to show her beautiful Jade green eyes that were the sign of a soul snatcher demon.

"Umm, mistress I think that a mate for you would not be worthy no matter who it was. No man is good enough for you." Su-ling said with a smile.

"Su-ling you have been my friend since I was a child do not call me mistress please." protested Su-yin.

"Yes mistress, I mean Su-yin" Su-ling corrected herself "Su-yin look I can see the shore it won't take more than 15 minutes to get there" Su-ling said happily to her friend and mistress.

"Shore already" Su-yin said, "that was fast a day on the fastest boat in China that's it!"

"Ma'am I need you to sit down" said the captain, "I'm going to take your supplies as payment for our services and you'll be starving."

"But what shall we do we have no money?" Su-yin asked as she winked at Su-ling and thought to herself what morons a princess without money, ha!

"Su-yin you'll have to starve" said the captain.

Su-ling raised her eyes to the captain and he instantly fell to the deck white smoke rising from his mouth to be absorbed by Su-ling's body.

"So move it cru what are you waiting for dock the boat?" Su-yin shouted.

Su-ling smiled then whispered "or it's the same for you."

With their food and money Su-yin thought things were going well save for that captain and finding a husband worthy of her father's gold. Of course she wanted a man she could trust and love as well.
