Vampire Lord's Demonic Wives-Chapter 9 Chameleon Trait

'Fuck! I told her to come from the front door. But forgot to tell her to wear some clothes.' ƒ𝑟𝐞𝗲𝘄𝙚𝚋𝑛ｏ𝙫𝒆𝒍.𝒄𝘰𝓂

Zoravec thought to himself in worry not realising that he missed the most important information.

The boy saw his mother walking towards the door when the bell rang once again and snagged his attention. He got up from the seat, and tried to stop his mother, but could not simply interrupt her.

He knew Hecate, his mother more than anyone else and was sure that the certain action would make her suspicious. Zoravec was well aware of the nature of his mother and knew that she was cautious about him.

Hecate had never left him alone for so long and never sent him somewhere all alone. However it irked Zoravec that why was she overly protective of him but Hecate always had the same one excuse, that she could not afford to lose him after her husband died.

Zoravec was sure that it was none other than Devi on the door, the doorbell rang once again as Hecate walked hurriedly. The old woman was already annoyed that someone disturbed them during lunch time.

Hecate absolutely hated it that someone was there to interfere with their day, it was not because she hated guests but due to her overly cautious nature she did not allow guests.

? "Mum…wait….I…"

Zoravec tried to stop her while chewing the bite hurriedly and wall towards Hecate. His worry grew only because he suspected that Devi might end up hurting his mother. He did not want to lose Hecate, his mother, after losing his father mysteriously.

"Oh, why did you get up? Go on and continue eating. I will check who this is."

Hecate told him and gestured to Zoravec so he could go back and finish his meal. As she turned around and headed straight towards the door. Zoravec flinched and silently prayed for his safety, he did not want to get scolded by Hecate that too in front of Devi.

'Oh no! This isn't good. I'm fucked up, Devi is certainly gonna get me killed today.'

Zoravec's panic was expected since he had never brought anyone home. He was supposed to return home right after the off time and the only few moments he got to spend with friends were only in the college.

Hecate was an overbearing mother not because she had some grudge for Zoravec or because he was step son. She was concerned about his safety only because Zoravec's father. He was mysteriously killed after some abduction which brought back his half eaten, half decayed and burnt body.

It left her shattered and cautious about her only son, Zoravec was her sole family now and Hecate loved him more than anyone else. Her overbearing nature forced Zoravec to lie often whenever he had to sneak out with friends.

It made Zoravec habitual of spewing small lies to her, but Hecate seemed to be unaware of it or perhaps she completely hid her concern occasionally.

Zoravec panicked upon seeing that Hecate was not budging at all and he needed to do something to stop her. He looked around immediately trying to figure out what he could possibly do to snag her attention.

'Fuck, fuck! Think!'

He went towards the table and snatched the tablecloth to toss the dishes on the floor.

The shattering voices of the dishes made Hecate look back imminently, her expressions changed upon seeing her favourite cutlery on the floor. She glared at Zoravec with a questioning gaze and raised her both hands with an irritated gesture.

"What are you doing, young man? How can you even drop all the things on the floor?"

Hecate looked at the door when the bell rang again and then shifted her gaze towards Zoravec.

"Go get the door, I will clean it up meanwhile."

Hecate headed towards the kitchen to fetch some cloth to clean up the food spillage.

Meanwhile Zoravec rushed towards the door to get Devi, he did not intend her to come inside that's why stopping her right in the way was necessary. He loomed back to see if his mother was still looking or not and then opened the door.

As soon as Zoravec opened two arms suddenly pulled him into a hug, he was taken aback in panic and fright regarding the particular situation. He reflexively pushed her back and pretended not to know the girl. Whereas Devi held his face with both hands and smiled at Zoravec.

"Hello, Zory!"

Her tender voice and the sugary tone stunned him, it was hard to believe for him that she was the same demoness of lust who had earlier threatened him. Zoravec stared at the woman in front of him with a dumbfounded expression.

"What…how did you even!?"

He could not fathom but admire that Devi was indeed beautiful, the demoness had changed her appearance to more 'normal' one. Her claws turned into hands and the tail was perhaps wrapped under the shirt she was wearing.

Zoravec's eyes travelled down on the shirt as he recognised that it belonged to him. But the where did the jeans come from? Devi had cleverly crafted some spell which summoned some clothes. Although she could change her appearance like a chameleon by touching.

After Zoravec shooed her off from the window, Devi enabled the appearance absorption spell. Lyra's dead body served as a host for her that she absorbed the desired physical traits from her. Thus the magic enabled her to transform her hands, feet and legs like normal people.

"Do you like it, honey?"

She chirped to Zoravec while grabbing his both hands in joy. She was satisfied seeing his stunned expressions which confirmed Devi that he liked her little trick. As much as Zoravec wanted to deny the rising admiration for her beautiful face, he could not divert his eyes from seeing the tempting demoness in front of him.

They both were engrossed into each other when a loud bang appeared nearby. The sound was familiar to Zoravec and as he turned around Hecate was staring at both of them in horror.
