The Heart of the Demon Lord

— Will you remove the rakes yourself, or do you want me to hit you again for free? — “Rakes? You mean a garden tool?” — “Give me that hand of mine, if it’s clearer that way!” Let’s do it right away, straight to the point. What do you want from me, Horton? I won’t sleep with you! Anything else needed? — “What a bold one.” “Aren’t you afraid of me?” — “No. If anything, I’ll tell Askold Goysky. He’ll tear your head off.” — “We fought with him in many wars. I’m not just the head of his security. I’m his combat comrade!” — “Be proud!” “I’m already proud of meeting you.” “I’m terribly tired. If you understand, demon… Let’s do it simply. I won’t sleep with you. If the chance comes, I’ll knock you down for free…” And now I need to leave.

Horton is a general of demons. Harsh and unapproachable, like a rock—looking down at women from the height of his enormous stature.

Madlena is a self-sufficient woman who puts demons in their place when they overstep in communication with earthly tourists.

They met—and sparks flew. Horton is ready to come to her even wounded, and Madlena… is she ready for a relationship?
