A TASTE OF TEMPTATION: Vampire King And His Hybrid Bride Chapter 12
“So she spied for you in Luther’s ranks?” I asked.I’d learnt from the textbooks and the lectures that Luther was the shifters’ number one enemy. We shifters—before they cast me out—were about to go to war with that vampire and his army.“That’s not your concern,” Jason said, trying to dismiss me again.“It is my fucking concern,” I said. “I’m now involved in all the things you’re involved in. I won’t fly blind, vampire, not even for you.”He shot me an annoyed look, his eyes narrowing in that familiar way that told me I was pushing my luck. His lips pressed into a thin line, and he inhaled slowly, as if trying to hold back a tide of frustration.“This journey will be more difficult than expected,” he muttered, almost to himself, his voice barely above a whisper. It wasn’t meant for me, but I caught it nonetheless. The weight of his words felt heavier than they should have, like there was more beneath them—something that Jason wasn’t sharing, at least not yet.I wasn’t a fool. I had a

The strangest part was that I didn’t even have all my memories. So many pieces of my past were missing, lost in a fog I couldn’t penetrate, yet the rage still simmered. Even without knowing every detail, I knew enough. I knew I’d been wronged and betrayed, and the world deserved to pay for that.What would it feel like to give in completely, to stop pretending I was anything other than what I truly was? A destroyer. A bringer of death.The thought curled around my mind like smoke, intoxicating and poisonous. If I let it, I could burn everything to the ground. Maybe I was meant to.Maybe the dark song wasn’t something to fear. Maybe it was something to embrace.My hand slipped from Jason’s, my desire to terrorise all beings growing strong.“Ollivara! Stop thinking!” Jason warned menacingly.I turned to him, gazing at the broad sword in his other hand, my image reflected in the shiny blade. My left eye had turned pitch-black, and my right glowed red.“Come back to me, Ollivara,” he call

“I can stand on my own two feet today because I drank from the amazing handsome vampire,” I said, my words cutting through the tension, watching with glee as repulsion rippled across Oldy’s face. The disgust that twisted his features only made me smile wider. His tightly knit control frayed further, and I revelled in it. “Now do you know who he is, Oldy? He’s the fucking vampire king. He could crush you like a little bug between his thumb and forefinger.”I leaned in, my voice lowering to a dangerous whisper, eyes locked on his. “While everyone else let me rot, he came for me.”Oldy’s mouth tightened into a hard line, his jaw clenching as he processed my words, his gaze flicking nervously toward Jason. The weight of my declaration hung heavy in the air between us, and for the first time, the enforcer looked less like a soldier and more like a man caught between fear and duty.“So yeah, I’m going with this good hunk, my superman.” I finished with a grin that was more teeth than joy. Th

My eyes widened, heart racing as I processed the scene. Reinforcements. They’d come for us.Before I could react, Jason’s hand clamped around mine, his grip strong and unyielding. I barely had time to register the touch before I felt my feet lift off the ground again, dangling helplessly as he hoisted me into the air with that same supernatural ease that always made me feel like a doll in his hands. He was moving fast, and there was no mistaking the urgency in his actions. Jason was afraid of losing me—afraid that any moment of hesitation could mean the difference between escape and capture.A sudden rush of air signalled the vampire girl’s arrival. She shot down from the sky like an arrow, landing lightly near the tunnel entrance with a graceful thud that made my heart skip a beat. I hadn’t even noticed her approach until she was right there, just feet away from us. Her dark wings folded neatly behind her as she flashed me a playful grin, her eyes glinting with mischief. She bowed wi

Before I could deliver another round of fiery words, since I didn’t feel like I was done and I had more to say and too much rage, he half-dragged and half-carried me toward the stairs down to the tunnel.I shrugged him off and leapt forward. A vampire caught me easily inside the tunnel and settled me down on the ground. Jason alighted behind me, letting out a breath and holding me to him.The vampires at the entrance tossed a series of potion bombs toward the shifters, evoking coughs, curses, and bellows from their adversaries.“It’s the wolfbane potion,” Faerry explained, smiling at me. She’d also landed near me. “The dogs will be out for a while.”“Serves them right.” I grinned back. “The shifters didn’t even know there was a tunnel under their airtight compound. Burn and burn! Asshole will be so thrilled.”“The tunnel system has been a well-kept secret among my people,” Jason said, his voice low and grave as we moved through the dimly lit passage. The echo of our footsteps was the

“How’s your nap?” The vampire king asked a few hours later.“Not bad.” I yawned and looked at my surroundings, “I have questions for you,” I said.“Why am I not surprised?” he said drily. “What more can you possibly ask while we’re running?”“Technically, you’re the one who’s doing the running, and I let you carry me, so I need something to occupy my mind.”“Perhaps I should put you down and let you do the running?”“I don’t mind stretching my legs,” I said.Even I knew how weak my legs were now. The boost I’d got from the vampire’s blood had run dry. He hadn’t thought of letting me take another sip, and I’d never beg for food even when hunger pangs twisted my stomach.To my relief, he didn’t drop me as he’d threatened. He seemed to like having me close to him, with my

He was enormous, and even sitting on the ground, he still seemed to tower over me.Oh gods, he was so breathtakingly handsome and lethal at the same time. The moonlight streamed through the trees, catching in his sapphire eyes—eyes so intense that they left me dazed. I fought the urge to reach out and touch his face, to run my fingers over his strong, chiseled features and trace the high curve of his cheekbones.His lips, sinful and enticing, were pressed tightly together as he waited for me to speak. But my mind refused to cooperate. It had gone completely blank as I absorbed the sight of him—his impossible, rugged beauty. My senses were overwhelmed, my no

“I’ve been doing some thinking,” I said. “You refused to tell me your plans, but I don’t mind sharing mine.”“Which are?” he sneered, back to his old, charming self.He only softened toward me for a few minutes when I dropped a tear or two.“I’m the chatty type, and I’m fresh out of prison. Who doesn’t want to practice talking after being locked up in a solitary cell without seeing any living thing for a week? You’re extremely lucky that I didn’t suffer withdrawal, sweety pie, or you’d have to suffer my company on this long, bumpy journey. Few beings can suffer me gracefully.”He was silent for a moment, but I could feel his rage rising again, heating me.“What’s your big plan then?” he asked.“Take a hot, hot shower and then eat five of the largest burgers in the wild country,” I said.The silvery moonlight spilled onto the rocky terrain right outside the forest. Jason’s shoulder-length hair billowed in the wind, and my blue hair flowed wildly. The air felt dry and crisp, and my com

The light witches approached me cautiously, not entering through the French doors but appearing from the shadows on the other side. They’d been training me nonstop for days, testing my resilience and patience, pushing the limits of my powers. Barbie, always efficient, had drilled me on spells and potions, memorizing incantations and identifying herbs, understanding the delicate balance between dark and light magic. She made sure I could distinguish between what was forbidden and what was celebrated. Meanwhile, Fin had taken a more hands-on approach, guiding me in channeling my energy, summoning my power, and holding it steady in my grasp.Smooth, however, was relentless. He spent hours with me, determined to help me uncover the hidden elemental magics he claimed I possessed. “You should have command over all the elements,” he insisted, his gaze fierce. “Wind, fire, water, metal, and earth. They should respond to you.” Wind came naturally to me, flowing through my movements like an ext

The servants bowed to me and said if I needed anything, I should just ring the bell in the room and they’d come to serve me, before they departed to give me privacy.I immediately went to check the walk-in closet and found dozens of new outfits in my size inside. This was another type of lifestyle I needed to get used to.I headed to the bathroom to do my business and take a bath. When I came out, a tray of several dishes, including two hamburgers, sat in the center of the table.The hamburgers didn’t taste like the ones I’d shared with Diane and the girls, so I guessed it was the company. One shouldn’t eat a burger alone. I missed my friends dearly and hoped they were safe. But I knew no hunters would go after them since I was gone.I finished my food, sipped the juice, and rang the bell.A servant girl who looked my age came in and asked me if she could remove the remaining dishes. I nodded and thanked her.“Where is everyone?” I asked.She looked behind the open door, and Henry ste

But Jason? He wasn’t playing any games. There was no hidden disrespect, no fake flattery behind closed doors. When he recognized me, he did it wholeheartedly. Even if he teased me in private and let me know exactly when I got under his skin, there was an honesty about it, and a respect that felt genuine.We started toward the mansion, and as we did, I noticed a vampire heading toward us with purpose. He was young, by vampire standards, looking as if he’d been turned in his late twenties. His hair was a sandy blonde, cropped neatly, and his eyes were a bright blue that held a glint of intensity, an energy I didn’t see in many vampires. His sharp, square jaw only emphasized his striking features, but there was something else that set him apart: a perfectly groomed mustache, twirled at the ends in a way that would have looked ridiculous on anyone else. On him, though, it somehow worked, like he was channeling some old-world charm no one else had the guts to attempt. I couldn’t help but w

We left as soon as the sun set.Over a dozen black armored vans were lined up in front of the house. I shared a vehicle with my former companions, and I watched everyone vacate the fort efficiently.“Are we abandoning the fort?” I asked as our fleet cruised out of the gate.“The shifter army is coming here,” White said. He sat with Faerry in the last row of the seats. “This compound is compromised.”“The shifter army is coming?” I shrieked. “They’re still chasing us? When will they learn to give the fuck up and just go home?”“The dogs are hunters,” Faerry said, polishing her nails. “They never give up their quarry.”“Who’s the quarry?” I demanded. “They’d better not think it’s me.”“It’s you.” Faerry smiled at me. “But that’s okay. We’re with you. They lost face when we stole you right from under their noses. They need to even the score.”I narrowed my eyes in displeasure. “So this is a my-dick-can’t-be-smaller-than-yours thing?”“Our dicks are definitely bigger,” White said confident

“You’re his daughter,” he repeated, his voice steady but laced with an intensity that made my pulse spike. His gaze never wavered, and the weight of his words settled like a stone in the pit of my stomach. “Sues only confirmed it for me, but he’ll pay for that betrayal.” His jaw clenched, and I could see the flicker of rage in his eyes, a dark promise of vengeance. “I’ll make sure he doesn’t live through our next confrontation.”The wind howled outside, mirroring the chaos churning within me, and blood pounded so fiercely in my ears that it drowned out any other sound. Everything in me felt like a storm—a whirlwind of fear, confusion, anger, and something dangerously close to hope.“You know I’m an abomination,” I said, voice trembling yet defiant. “You know what I am—what I could do. That I’ll probably bring mass destruction.” My breath caught in my throat, but

“Shove the family talk up your fat ass,” I snarled. “Or I’ll have the witches do it for you.”“You’ll never touch her again,” Jason snarled, his fangs out, his eyes darker than nightmares. I shivered, not because of fear, but because he appeared so sexy in his dark glory. It’d turn any woman on when a male would go to war to protect you, and the Vampire King had just issued a challenge. “I’ll tear you to pieces and erase your essence and soul forever.”“You don’t even know what you harbor in your keep, Vampire King,” the vile male snorted. “She’ll wreck your world again and rain down fire and death on Earth. I’m not the bad guy. I’ve been trying to save what’s left of Earth, but she’ll leave nothing standing when her monster comes out to play. And don’t you know we aren’t the only hunters? The entire Earth has risen up against her, or the idea of her.The Defenders, Guardians, Watchers, just to name a few. If anyone points them your way, the tsunami will sweep over you, and you won’t h

The words were a shield around me, a possessive claim that sent a warmth curling in my chest. The protective instinct in his tone sent a wave of comfort through me, but the warmth was short-lived. Just as quickly, something colder and sharper slid through me—a flicker of doubt. Would he still think of me as his if Nossy’s poisonous words managed to turn him against me? If she whispered enough of her twisted truths, would Jason still stand by me? Or would he, too, start seeing me as the thing everyone feared?I shoved that thought aside, but it lingered like a shadow, clawing at the edges of my mind.Before I could even form a response, the chill in the air thickened, and a bone-deep sense of dread swept over me. I started to speak, to snap at Nossy to shut up, but the words died on my tongue when her head jerked backward with a sickening crack. The movement was unnatural, contorted—like something had taken hold of her, something that wasn’t her at all.Her eyes turned black—pure, soul

My throat tightened as I stared at Nossy, her sneer a constant reminder of the chaos she had caused in my life. I must get the truth out of her—alone. The thought echoed in my mind like a mantra, desperate and urgent. If she said anything that didn’t sit right with me, I’d just snuff her out quietly. No one would know. No one would have a chance to turn on me. Worse, no one would start hunting me. It was safer that way. Easier.I had heard enough whispers in the Shifters Uni to know that the rumors surrounding Deathroh’s daughter were growing louder by the day. They said she was still alive, walking the Earth, her very existence a threat to everyone—human and supernatural alike. The idea of her had become something of a myth, a whispered warning among those who sought to protect their own from his wrath. And the most terrifying part? They believed that she was me.I couldn’t even begin to comprehend it. Deathroh’s daughter? Me? How? How could I possibly be his daughter? I was a hybrid

Jason, for his part, didn’t say anything. He didn’t need to. His gaze, his quiet intensity, said everything.I cleared my throat, breaking the moment, but a small, teasing smile still tugged at the corners of my mouth. “You didn’t sleep on the job, Henry,” I said, glancing at the man holding the tray of coffee.Henry shot me a look, his eyes narrowing slightly as though he was offended. “I never sleep on the job,” he replied curtly, his tone firm and almost defiant. His posture didn’t shift an inch, still rigid and professional, and I could see the faintest traces of amusement in his gaze, though it was expertly hidden behind his usual stoic demeanor.“I’m glad and surprised,” I said, grinning a little as I took a step closer to him. “Is that coffee for me?” I asked, my voice light, teasing.Henry’s snort was immediate. “Who else could get me to serve her coffee?” he muttered, barely containing his distaste.I laughed softly, the sound unexpectedly easy, and then it clicked—this had b
