Return of the demon king

1

"In three, two, one, push!"

The woman on the hospital bed pushed with all her might. After minutes of hard pushing, the baby's head finally emerged.

It wasn't crying at all, his eyes were shut closed, and he wasn't moving.

The baby finally came out in silence. But why was he silent?

"Why? Why can't I hear my baby's voice? Why isn't he crying?" The woman panicked.

The nurses were unable to say anything. She is the wife of the powerful Hendersons, they are scared, they can't provoke her, or they're doomed. The doctor listened to his heartbeat. It was beating so slowly. Is the child dead?

"Give me my baby,"

She collected the baby from the doctor, then looked at its face. He wasn't even moving. It was a boy.

"Why is his body cold and why isn't he moving?" She questioned, then placed her ear on his chest, only to hear a slower heartbeat. She made a sigh of relief.

"Please check on him, he is okay," she gave the baby to one of the nurses who were shocked to hear that the baby was still alive.

Lilly Henderson carried her baby in her arms, cuddling him.

He suddenly started crying which shocked everyone in the hospital including the mother.

'He didn't cry when his mother was giving birth to him, how come he is crying so much now?' The nurse in charge of the ward thought to herself...

The nurse who was in charge raised one of her brows in surprise, even all the nurses were so surprised.

Lilly smiled at the child in her arms, then kissed its forehead.

"See, I told you he was alright," she said to the shocked nurses.

"He is a Henderson, strong and fragile."

"Ma'am, please,"

"Sure," she placed the child on the bed.

The doctor checked his pulse first, his body was cold which scared them so much. He then checked his heartbeat, it was so slow, too slow in fact. How come??

"Is everything okay?" She asked the doctor who nodded his head like a lizard who has nothing to explain.

"Good, now let me have my baby,"

****

"Mom gave birth to a boy," Riley said, staring at the mirror while one of the servants was making her hair.

"A boy?" The youngest, Dorothy, questioned in shock.

Now that there's a boy child in the family, everything will turn out for them in a bad way. They wouldn't have all the attention they need anymore, they wouldn't be taken seriously anymore. Now that there's a boy child in the family, everything would turn out so bad for them.

Henderson Jake d'first has always been one of the richest tycoons and men in the business world, including Asia and Australia. He is a much respected man in his world. He is almost invisible to go deep into.

Now that he was already forty, he had no male child to take after him. Even though he has two children, he still finds them incompetent enough, all he wanted was a boy child in his family.

Now that a boy child has been born, he was so happy that that day, he invited lots and lots of his friends to come celebrate with him.

His wife, Lilly Henderson, is the Queen of the jewelry world. She would always get jealous of the boys' child her friends have. She has always wished for a male child, maybe things would be nice.

And now that she has one, she couldn't help but being a joyful mother.

"Should we go check on the boy?" The younger one asked her sister was staring at the mirror.

"The boy isn't dead, why would we go check on him," she scoffed.

"Riley!! Dorothy!!" They heard their mother's voice.

"Mother is calling on us," Dorothy said, and the girl seated stood up immediately.

"Perhaps we should go check on him,"

She walked out of the room with her sister with her.

**

The two stood by the door staring at their parents, especially that baby boy their mother was carrying. It pained them so much, especially Riley, who gritted her teeth in anger and sadness. Now all attention would be on that boy.

Fortunately, Lilly saw them and beckoned them to move forward. They both walked towards their parents slowly.

"Come on, girls,"

They finally reached their mother's side, then turned to look at the boy she was carrying.

"This is your baby brother Damien,"

"Okay," Dorothy replied, staring at the baby.

Lilly also stared at the baby with hatred in her eyes.

"Mom, why did you name him Damien?" Dorothy suddenly asked.

"Kids, have you ever heard of the name Damien Henderson d'first?"

"Never heard of him," they both chorused.

The name seems to be somehow related to their family, as it was a Henderson, which was also their family.

"He was a strong man, mighty and a very famous billionaire. He was in the first generations of the Hendersons, which means he was your great-grandfather,"

"So you gave birth to our great grandfather," Riley frowned.

"He is not your great-grandfather Riley," it was Jake's turn to talk. "He just has the name of your great-grandfather which is good,"

"Yeah, right, that's wonderful," Lilly rolled her eyes with her arms folded.

The baby began to cry suddenly.

"Oh my, oh my, my baby is crying," Lilly said, cuddling the crying baby with care.

"Come on, Dorothy," Riley said in irritation. A frown was visible on her 12 years old eyes.

She couldn't take all those care they were giving to their child anymore which made her excuse herself.

"The baby child looked cute though," Dorothy couldn't help but say the truth, which made Riley frown at her.

"Why are you even saying that Dorothy, are you trying to piss me off with your words, should I tell you that it is working, or I should slap you instead," Riley threatened with a frown on her face.

She hated the fact that there's a new baby in the house, not just a new baby. It was a new baby boy, how ironical. Now all care and all attention would be vested to that baby. She frowned again.

*Five years later*

*Patricia's kids' school*

Damien was staring at the toy in his classmate's hand with great fury on his face. Isn't that his robot? Why is it in his hand?

He had been looking for that toy for ages because it was his best toy. Now he couldn't believe the toy was stolen by one of his classmates all along.

He wanted to keep his cool and not attack his classmate. But his ego wouldn't allow him.

He suddenly ran to the boy and yanked the toy angrily.

"Hey, that's my toy," Dan collected it back.

"It is not yours. You stole it from me, give it back!" Damien said and the boy frowned.

"You are lying. My mom said I don't steal, that I am adorable and innocent. So you are lying about me being a thief," Dan defended.

"Maybe you and your mother are thieves, what do you do best? Stealing toys from others," Damien accused.

This toy was his favorite, the same way stealing isn't something he liked, how dare Dan?

Damien said with tears almost in his eyes. He couldn't take it anymore. He ran to the boy and began dragging the toy from him. Dan was also dragging and dragging till the toy broke into two.

Damien got mad that he felt his head banging with fury. He just broke his toy.

"Here, take it," Dan threw the remaining part at him. "It's useless anyway."

His iris was flashing red in anger, a strong and deadly heavy aura surrounded him. It felt like his inner demons were starting to pop out with anger. His fist was clenched tightly that even blood was flowing from it.

His expression made the boy jolt in fear. He quickly took a step back. And anxiously, he wanted to run away, run away from this kid.

Damien threw the half toy away. But the spot he threw it on made a hole, which made the kid tremble.

"Please, please don't hurt me," Dan began to cry. "I swear I won't do it again. Please don't hurt me," the boy pleaded with tears running uncontrollably from his eyes.

He walked backward trying to run away from Damien.

"Please, don't hurt me," he pleaded again.

Unfortunately, he wasn't conscious of the big tragedy awaiting. He just kept going back in fear without knowing he already hit the stairs.

He slipped, causing him to roll down the stairs. Damien's aura changed immediately he saw something this big in front of him. He stood there in shock, unable to do anything. He doesn't mean to scare him, he was just furious.

"Damien, you threw him down the stairs!" he heard a girl's voice. He turned around to see his classmates staring at him with horror faces.

*****

"My baby," Dan's mother cried out loud, holding her injured son with tears in her eyes.

Dan was severely injured both on his head and legs. A wire was connected to his body, and a machine was heard beeping beside him.

Dan's teacher and the principal walked into the ward with fear on their faces.

Dan's parents are rich people, these people can sue the school if they want to, and they can even shut down the school if they please. Now that their son is in this situation because of the school, they knew that they were in greater trouble.

"You people!! You wretched people!" The woman cursed. "What were you busy doing when my son fell from the stairs? Uh? My son is just a little boy for god's sake and see what you have done to him."

"We are sorry ma'am,"

"Sorry?" She scoffed. "Can sorry fix all of these? You wretched monsters!" She screamed angrily.

The door cracked open revealing Damien and his mother.

The principal turned to look at him and his mother, also in fear.

They don't even know what to do anymore. These two families are both rich, but Damien's family, they are a big shot that can never be provoked. But their son did this, so he has to take responsibility.

Dan's mother looked at Dan with hostility in her eyes. She felt like beating the boy black and blue for doing this to her child.

"Dan, I am sorry please forgive me," Damien apologized to the unconscious boy. He felt so sorry for the boy feeling it was all his fault, he shouldn't have gotten angry in the first place.

"Mummy?" Dan called his mother. His mother beamed out a smile. Her son is okay and fine.

"Dan?" Damien called.

The minute Dan heard his voice, he began to scream.

"Argggg!!! He will kill me. He is a monster, he will kill me, please save me from him!!! Please!!" He began to scream out his voice.

His expression made the people in the ward shocked. He was shivering and gritting his teeth in fear like he has just seen a real monster. Even with the way he was screaming like Damien is going to draw the life out of him.

"But I am sorry," Damien said sincerely with tears running out of his eyes.

"Get him away from here, he will kill me!' The boy kept screaming.

"Get this boy away from here right this instant!!" Dan's mother yelled.

Lilly held her son in pity. She could see the sincerity in his face and at the same time, she knew what the woman must be facing. It must be torturous seeing her son in such a state,"

"Damien, common, let's leave," Lilly said to her sobbing son.

"But mom, It wasn't intentional," Damien muttered with tears in his eyes.

"I know son, I know it was unintentional, I believe you,"

Both mother and son got out of the ward leaving Dan screaming.

The principal and the teacher walked out of the ward in pity. They also believed Damien cause they know him as a gentle boy, he isn't the type to cause trouble, and he isn't the type that fights with his mates.

He is always the silent and respectful one.

But now that it has happened, they have no other choice.

What?!! You can't do that," Lilly said in exclamation. Just because of an unintentional accident, this school wants to expel her son? What right did they have to do that? Do they have any evidence against her son?

"We are sorry ma'am, but we have no other choice,"

Damien was already crying in one corner, he wished he could go back in time. Now all is too late. "This is our school name we are talking about ma'am, if we do not do the rightful, our school would be dragged to the mud."

"But I am sorry," Damien ran to the principal. "I won't do it again. I will be a good boy, I will never do it again, please don't take me away from my friends, they have been the only best friends I have ever had. Please don't take me away from them, (turns to Lilly) mom..."

Lilly closed her eyes in frustration. She knew what her son was accused of was unintentional, but what about the school name??

"Don't we have any other choice?" Lilly asked the principal with pleading eyes. She just doesn't want her poor son crying anymore.

"No ma'am,"

"Okay," she muttered.

"Mom, no," Damien pleaded.

Lilly held her son's hands firmly.

"Damien, please don't cry anymore. You can still go to another school and make new friends. It's alright,"

"No!"

He ran outside with tears in his eyes.

Lilly looked at the principal who shook his head.

"Excuse me," she walked out of the office.

Immediately, the principal made a heavy breath. He could swear he felt his heart on his hands. He just did the unspeakable and surprisingly, Mrs. Henderson is an understanding woman. If it was other rich women, he knew they would fight, or even go to court, but she didn't. Mrs. Henderson must be lucky to have such a wife like her.

Knowledgeable and understanding.

****

Damien sat in the car crying out his eyes. Lilly walked into the car to coax her son.

"I am sorry Damien, but I had no other choice."

"I know mummy, I understand. But I feel pity for Dan, he was in pain all because of me,"

"No baby," she hugged her son.

"It's unintentional, you shouldn't be guilty."

"And I will so much miss my friends," he muttered hugging her mother tightly like she was going to flee from him anytime soon.

"Don't worry, I can still take you to another better school. You will have more friends,"

"Really mom?"

"Yes, my baby. Now wipe off your tears,"

****

"Oh, so he killed a boy of his age," Riley mocked with a raised brow.

"Riley, we are talking about your blood brother here."

"Yeah, that doesn't change the fact that he killed someone," Dorothy said with her eyes rolled.

"Your brother killed no one,"

Little Damien who was eating silently felt so irritated, that then dropped his spoon.

"Mummy, I am full," he said softly. Lilly walked to him and stroked his hair passionately.

"Are you sure baby?" She questioned and without hesitation, he nods his head.

He hopped down from his chair in a cute way, then ran to his room.

"See what you did Riley, you just made him so upset that he didn't even bother to finish his food,"

"I just said the truth mom, he killed..."

"Riley!!" Her father yelled. "It's your brother we are talking about here, so stop saying nonsense or I'll ground you," the man threatened.

Riley grits her teeth, then hopped down from her chair and ran into her room in a fit of rage.

Dorothy also hopped down, then ran to Riley who was crying in her room...

"Riley?" Dorothy called.

"What?! Just get out of here,"

She bit her lips angrily.

"It's all his fault. He caused all of it. If only he hadn't come to this family, everything would be alright. Now he is here, he is causing problems between mummy and me. He is such bad luck," Riley snorted angrily with tears streaming out of her face.

Dorothy sat beside her, then grabbed her hand.

Riley felt like doing something very harmful for that boy, she felt like getting rid of him, for him to just go very far away from their home.

"I am going to teach him a lesson," she popped down from her bed and then ran into Damien's room. Dorothy just followed her behind like a lost pet who just found its master.

Damien was busy cuddling his toy making a sad face. He was busy stroking the back of his toy with his lips pouted cutely.

He still regrets doing those things. If he had known in the beginning, he wouldn't have dragged the toy with him, he should have left him alone. Now it's too late to regret anything. He rests his head on his toy, then sighed softly.

"Look at him, annoying little monster," Riley mocked, then walked to him angrily, yanked his toy from him, then threw it on the floor breaking it into pieces.

"Riley?!" Damien exclaimed staring at his broken toy which was scattered on the floor.

"You little monster, you think you can go Scott free after all you have done," she points to his face angrily.

"What have I done, I already said I am sorry," he said with tears falling from his eyes.

"When the heck did you say sorry to me, you made mom and dad shout at me and you know they never do that to me even if I make the heaviest mistake. Now all because of you, mom screamed at me, even dad yelled at me, you little demon," she yelled at him.

Dorothy flinched a little. She thinks Riley is just being very wild at her little bro.

"But I am sorry,"

"But you are sorry, but you are sorry, that all you kept saying, you silly small looking devil,"

"I am sorry," he muttered softly.

"Be sorry for yourself, you little devil!!" She walked out of his room, slamming the door in fury.

Damien sat on his bed, crying softly.

"I am sorry,"
