Married to the Devil's Son novel Chapter 206

Chapter 206 - 83

"Blowing out someone else's candle doesn't make yours shine any brighter."

*****************

Lothaire invited Zarin to his home in one of his hidden kingdoms. He took him to his luxurious parlor and asked him to sit down. This was going to be a long, interesting conversation, and he wanted to set the mood.

Tezz was right. The more people he got on his side that Heaven cared for, the bigger the chance would be of her staying with him once he got a hold on her.

He poured some wine for himself and Zarin and handed him the golden goblet before getting seated.

"So you say you love my granddaughter?"

Zarin nodded.

"And Zamiel doesn't love her? He is only manipulating her?"

The boy nodded again.

Lothaire sipped his wine, watching Zarin closely.

"Why would he manipulate her?" He asked.

Zarin sighed. "He is using her. He hates witches and wants to have his revenge on them."

Lothaire frowned. The boy made no sense. "I am sure Zamiel could have his revenge in the most cruel way without using Heaven."

The boy put the goblet down and looked at him with a serious expression. "Maybe he wants to have a good time with her first."

Well then, he could just compel her, but Lothaire continued to listen to his nonsense.

Zarin needed guidance. He was a sinner who didn't want to admit to his sins. Or more correctly, he justified his sins. A common human trait. Commit a sin, but blame it on others. Lothaire hated those types, because he would often be the one to be blamed for everyone's sins.

He knew he shouldn't hate them, because those types would never repent as long as they blamed others, and that is exactly what he wanted. But he couldn't help it. His pride didn't allow him to be blamed.

"I just want to make sure that Heaven is safe." Zarin added.

Lothaire put his wine goblet on the table and gazed into Zarin's eyes. "Zarin, who am I?" He asked.?Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click #’s-son_%!d(string=14205835806705305)/chapter-83_%!d(string=51703205087738142) for visiting.

Zarin seemed fazed by the question. "You are Heaven's grandfather." He said.

"That is what I am to Heaven. What am I to everyone else?"

The boy's eyes darted nervously before he spoke. "The devil."

Lothaire could see that Zarin felt uncomfortable calling him the devil.

"And what does the devil do?" He asked.

Zarin looked at him questioningly, wondering why he was being asked these questions. _{freewebnøvel.com}

"You make people sin." He replied distressfully.

"Wrong answer." He told him standing up. "Follow me. I will show you what I do."

Lothaire was a master of manipulation, but what people didn't know was that he could only manipulate those who let him. God's creatures were inherently good, but they all had a sinful nature. All of them were sinners. The difference between them was the consistency of sins and repentance. The good ones would always repent and try their best to not fall into sin again. Others would continue down the same path, walking deeper into the darkness until they see no light when they turn back. And when the path behind you is dark, it is harder to find your way back.

Zarin stood up from his seat and followed Lothaire. He halted and gasped when he noticed the floor beneath him looking like heaven.

"Walk with me." Lothaire said.

Zarin continued to follow him, surprised by and awed by Lothaire's crafty work.

"How did you do this?" He asked.

"It is my job to make the walk pleasing." He responded.

Lothaire created another illusion. He turned the hall into a party as they walked. Music, liquor and fine undressed women chatted and danced. Swaying their seductive uncovered bodies to the music.

Zarin's eyes widened. He looked around, astonished. "This is what I do." Lothaire said, slowing down and motioning toward the provocative view. The women touched each other, engaging in s.e.x.u.a.l behavior.

"I make sin appealing." He said continuing to walk. "Most materialistic things in life turns us to sin. I provide you with these things."

He made them walk down a path of gold. Zarin looked beneath his feet, there was gold everywhere.

"But the women…" Zarin said, confused.
