Chapter 45: Pandaemonium

Pandaemonium.

Amaris never imagined that she would see the place. According to the rumors, it was a place where everyone could do almost anything. Some say that it was just created by someone's imagination. But a lot of creatures believed that it really existed.

Some call it Paradise Lost; some named it A Demon's Place. No one ever knew that the place was real. They said that once you entered Pandaemonium, there was no turning back.

You only have two options in that place: stay or die. If you decided to stay, you would live a life full of lust and desire. But death awaits you if you choose to leave.

Amaris hesitated to step forward. Sura turned to her and laughed when he saw her face.

"So you've heard about Pandaemonium."

Amaris nodded.

"Stay or die. That's the rule here. But don't worry. I could always make an exception." Sura reassured her.

Enid suddenly grabbed her hand, pulling her inside. Amaris noticed that the girl was acting so weird. She looked so innocent that you would think she was just a kid that didn't know anything about the world.

As they walked inside Pandaemonium, Amaris saw that it was swarming with different creatures. Just like the rumor said, the place was open to anyone who wanted to experience a lifetime of pleasure. 

She saw Terrans having sex with monsters. There were beds, tables, and chairs with different sex toys used for sexual activities.

Amaris also saw naked women who were hanging around in curtains and poles. There were dancers in big cages. And some creatures were shackled on their hands and feet, while the others were playing with their bodies.

As the loud music played, creatures of different kinds partied like no tomorrow. They were dancing, drinking, and smoking. There were separate rooms for those who loved gambling. It was indeed a place where one could do everything that was forbidden.

At the end of the huge hall was an imperial staircase or a split staircase. There was a long dangling chandelier hanging in the center of the ceiling. Amaris stared at the giant golden tree in the middle of the hall.

"Uncle, what's this tree?" She asked curiosity piqued.

She had never seen a golden tree in her entire life, and seeing one amazed her. It also made her wonder why a beautiful tree was in the middle of the hall where all kinds of sinners lurked.

"That's called aurum vita or golden life tree. Are you wondering why it's in here?" Sura asked.

Amaris nodded while listening to Sura.

"Pandaemonium is someone's passage to the underworld. Creatures who come in here were those who had already sinned and had no chance of a second life. Aurum Vita was a gift from the Sky God. It blooms and would produce one fruit once a year. Aurum Vita would choose one from those who wanted a second chance in life and leave Pandaemonium."

Amaris didn't know that there was something like that in Terra. Maybe it was because the Demon Clan protects it, so no one would dare expose it.

She followed Sura and Enid up to the fourth floor. Amaris felt that the castle was like an endless space, and the path they took had no end.

After walking in almost half an hour, they finally stopped in front of another large door. When they entered, Amaris saw that it was a throne room.

"This is where we would meet them. Stay beside me." Sura ordered.

She nodded, but she frowned when she smelled a very familiar scent. It was more potent than any other scent. It was lingering around the room, and she knew Zion was already here. He had found her.

"It seems like I have a lot of visitors today." Sura chuckled.

Then out of nowhere, Zion appeared in his wolf form. Amaris felt a sudden urge to run towards him, but then she remembered why she had flown away from him. She walked backward, hiding behind Sura.

Zion shifted back to his human form, naked. Then behind him appeared Cole and Xavier, handing him his clothes.

"Ari, let's go home." Zion said in a gentle voice.

She shook her head and didn't move an inch; then, she felt someone hold her hand. It was Enid. For some reason, the girl had a strong connection with her.

"I'm sorry. I believe you. Your aunt told me about it. I was wrong, so please forgive me." Zion almost pleaded.

Sura suddenly laughed.

"I never expected that the legendary Alpha of the Werewolf Clan would beg to my niece."

Zion glared at Sura. The only reason he couldn't attack him was that Sura was Amaris' uncle. 

"Enough of this. We are expecting another visitor." Sura said.

"The Night Howlers?" Zion asked.

Sura nodded then walked towards the throne while Enid dragged Amaris to follow Sura. Zion couldn't do anything to get closer because his Luna chose to stay beside her uncle.

He followed and just stood near them while they waited for the Night Howlers.

"What's their purpose in coming here?" Zion asked, but he already had an idea why they came into the Demon Clan's territory.

"Looking for your Luna, of course." Sura answered.

The throne room's door opened, then five creatures entered. Just like Amaris told Sura, a succubus, two harpies, a Terran, and a minotaur walked inside.

'Be alert.' Zion said to Cole and Xavier using a mind link.

The succubus, Sharaya, saw Zion standing a few steps away from Sura. She suddenly felt excited, and Amaris could smell an overflowing lust and craving from Sharaya.

Amaris gritted her teeth and clenched her fist when Sharaya started walking towards Zion. Sura felt Amaris anger and wanted to see what would happen if she continued to feel that way.

'Focus. What would you like to do Amaris?' Sura was talking to her in her head.

Sharaya was about to touch Zion when a huge monster-like fox suddenly jumped into her.

Zion looked behind and noticed that Amaris wasn't there. He looked at Sura, who had a wide grin on his face. 

"She's indeed Phelan's daughter, a Mutare. That's a nine-tailed fox." Sura said while staring intently at Amaris.
