Outside of the walls of Grenalia.The Dark Queen Kleo sat proudly on her black, mighty and elegant horse gazing up at the high walls that protect the Kingdom and people of Grenalia which stood some distance ahead of her with her mighty vampire army behind her. Although she came here for a peaceful business deal Kleo made sure to come fully armed and prepared in case things didn't go as planned and most especially to put the fear in the hearts of men as a reminder of how powerful and strong the vampires are.She had more than half of her army with her and they were all equipped and battle prepared.“My Queen, a message has been sent to Grenalia that we are here for a peaceful meeting." One of her soldiers' came to report.“Good, now let's see if the race of man is brave enough to let vampires enter freely into their city." Kleo said with a smug on her face.She was actually enjoying the whole drama that was happening as she could sense that the whole kingdom of Grenalia were tensed b
“Very true, my race can't do without blood but instead of forcefully taking it we are willing to pay for this blood with silver and gold. Humans in exchange of gold and silver, great king." Irene said and King Stefan spouted to his feet.“What?!"Everyone seated also stood up except for the Dark Queen who still sat confidently.“Are you suggesting I sell my own people to you?!" The king's face had become red out of anger.Irene lowered her face to avoid the blazing gaze of the king.“What we are bringing to you is a business opportunity and also a deal to keep your people safe." She said in a low but confident tone.“Keep my people safe! You call keeping my people safe, selling them off like animals to the vampires where they would have their life sucked and flesh eaten up?! Tell me!" King Stefan thundered, slamming his hands hard on the table in front of him and it felt like all hell was about to be let loose.Irene kept quiet as she knew any wrong words from her could mean the en
Location: GrenaliaIt was a new day with the sun just rising from the darkness to take its place in the middle of the endless sky after it's long sleep and the beautiful, colorful birds flying and singing from tree to tree blessing the earth with their melodious tone.For some reason Lucian was up earlier than usual and after he had lay watching his beautiful wife sleep for a while he decided to have a walk around in the city before he was forced to kiss and make passionate love to her right then as she was very tempting to him.Slowly standing up from the bed, he gazed over at the bed where his beautiful wife, Anna was still laying sleeping peacefully and a smile formed on his face.Walking into the changing room Lucian ransacked the clothes in the closet looking for something that looked less expensive to wear to go out for a walk so he would appear like a common man amongst the people.That was quite hard since almost all the clothes in the closet are all expensive and are befittin
As Lucian submerged himself into the depth of the river and came out for a breather, he immediately sensed the atmosphere above him had changed. He could feel that presence, that great energy he felt the other day in the room when the strange man or demon in a cloak came to him.He is here? Lucian found himself looking around in search of him, the demon or whatever creature he was but he wasn't anywhere though Lucian could still feel his great energy and presence.As he made himself invisible just like the other day? Lucian thought and Lucian found himself feeling tense.He really didn't like this particular power this person possesses as it is a very dangerous one. As one can't kill what can't see but what can see you can surely kill you.However Lucian heard a sound that startled him from behind...it was a voice, a sweet voice of a female.“Do you mind me joining you?"Turning to the direction where the voice came from, Lucian's eyes rested upon a goddess of a woman standing just b
10000 years in the future"Who the hell is Anna?!" Anna waited. She waited to hear what Lucian had to say. She stood at the foot of the stairs, Wendy beside her. Her gaze settled on Lucian who looked really uncomfortable with the situation at the moment. Vera, a tall and beautiful lady. Exactly what she had thought about last night when Lucian had stopped touching her. That lady seated beside him, dressed like she was going to a strip club was the perfect description. Olive skin, tall and slender, beautiful shape, nice facial structure and small breasts. Lucian gave her a pointed look and Anna averted her gaze immediately. "That's Anna—" Lucian began, but Wendy was quick to cut him short. "She's the new help! I help with the cooking and she cleans the house." Vera said nothing in reply. She gave Anna a long stare from her head to her toe. There was a look on her face. Anna couldn't place it. It was either a look of disdain or envy. She didn't know whi
Wendy carried the large tray of dishes out into the dining area. Anna took a seat in the mini dining situated in the middle of the large kitchen and waited. Subconsciously, her fingers began to pull against the skin of her cuticle. She did that each time she was nervous or tense and needed to calm down. She took a look around the kitchen and for the first time since she's entered here, she noticed that this was no ordinary kitchen. It was filled with every cooking gadget there would ever be. What even surprised Anna the most was the knives that hung against a wall rack. Every type and size was there and Anna frowned. What were they for? There was a large window at the west end of the kitchen and the fading rays of the sun filtered in through the pale yellow blinds covering the window. It cast beautiful vertical rays against the sill, the long wide island and the tiles floor of the kitchen and Anna got lost. In a few minutes, she didn't feel like she was in the kitche
After her eyes had opened and gotten accustomed to the dull evening sky, Anna sat up and tried to stretch. A sharp pain shot up her spine and she winced. In what position had she taken a nap? The pain was sharp, short lived, but really painful. She lay back slowly on the bed to see if she'd feel the pain. There was none and she blamed herself for sleeping in a careless position. As she tried to sit up, that same sharp zing shot up her spine and she flinched. "What…" There was a knock on her door and without thinking, Alma spoke. "Come in. The door's open." The knob twisted and when the door opened, a lady she had never seen before poked her head in with a smile on her beautiful face. A few strands of curly brown hair hung on the front of her face. Anna totally forgot about the pain she had felt a few seconds ago and smiled at the petite lady who had just entered the room. "Hi." The lady smoothed her hands against the back of her jeans before taking a se
"Anna, you know that I can never lie to you. How will I make up this kind of story? Why am I even making it up? For what purpose?" She stared back at him and nodded. "I know, Lucian. It's just that I'm so confused about everything. I don't know anything happening here, I don't know what people think about me and I don't even know if someone somewhere in this estate wants to have me killed. Take a look at Vera for example. I don't even know who she is or what she looks like because, on the face of it, she wants to have me killed or what does she want to do with me?" Lucian placed his large hand over her slender one and rubbed the pad of his thumb against her skin. "Anna, sweetie. It doesn't matter. What they think about you doesn't matter. And, nobody here wants to have you killed. Vera isn't from this pack and she's had feelings for me ever since she stepped foot into this place. I don't know if she's obsessed or plain wicked." Her eyes wondered. She studied a
