The king was too lost staring at Dahlia's exposed thighs that he didn't realize when he finished the blood to the very last drop, but the blood tasted too good. The night was already promising.

Dahlia watched him intently as he downed the whole cup, seemingly lost in the taste. He finally brought the cup away from his mouth, and his gaze focused on her.

"Now undress." He commanded her, his eyes told her that he was more than ready to pounce on her.

She watched his every movement, trying to notice if there was any change in him, but he seemed like his usual arrogant self. Did it not work? Was he immune? She was doomed.

Dahlia felt beads of sweat forming on her forehead and her palms as well. She rubbed them together as if it would help ease the nervousness she was feeling.

"Why don't you get up and let me undress you?" She asked instead, her gaze boring into his, and pinning him down. She was scared, but she tried to hide it. She didn't want her fear to get in the way of her plans. She

    Dahlia and the general got to Durville in about forty minutes. They had no reason to slow down as they were both vampires. It was only when they got to a path that would either lead to his house or the castle that Lorenzo stopped. Dahlia stopped along with him."Is there a problem?" She asked."Should I take you to the castle... or you want to spend the night in my house?""Easy choice there. Your house. There is no need to disturb those at the castle as it is the middle of the night and they are already sleeping." She then turned to him and winked.He lowered his head, but his gaze was on her, then he gave her a boyish grin. "If only you know how you look right now." He then tried to wipe her face which was stained with dried tears with his palm."Oh." She then tried to wipe it by herself, but he caught her hand."Allow me." He said, and she dropped her hand. He then used his thumb when he saw that the palm wasn't really doing anything. Finally he gave up and decided that she should

    Dahlia woke up the next morning only to meet the side of the bed where Lorenzo was lying empty. She sat up and was surprised to see that she was already served breakfast on a small stool close to her bed. She smiled at his thoughtfulness. She wondered where he was, or had he gone to the castle already?That was when she looked and noticed the small note that was kept on the side of the stool. She picked it up to read. 'Left for the castle. Made you breakfast. I will be back early.'She smiled reading it, wondering when he left. She then heard footsteps outside the room, and she wondered if he had not left. She quickly stood up to check. When she came out of the room, she saw that it was indeed him."You are still here?""Uhm yeah. I was just about leaving. I didn't want to wake you up since you barely slept last night."She smiled at him. "Can I go with you to the castle? I want to meet the king and queen.""I would have loved to take you, but that would make me late.""I will be fa

    The Duke's gaze darted from the king to the general, then to the queen and her guards, and his face paled."You can't disrespect my queen in our own castle, and certainly not in my presence. Kneel now to save your head. We will talk after that."Duke Malthus saw the look in his eyes, and he knew for sure that there was no way he would escape it. He would have to kneel to a human, an inferior being. The thought annoyed him.But having no choice, he hesitantly went to stand in front of Luciana. His gaze met her daring and unwavering one. He challenged her with his eyes, but he seemed to be losing terribly. In the next moment, he dropped to his knees.There was a look of surprise on his face. He didn't know the moment he knelt. It was as if he was pulled down by an invisible force. He then tried to get up, but it felt like his body was too heavy for him to carry. He looked up, and saw that her gaze was still on him.The king then came to stand by her side, and she looked towards his dire

  • Bound by Blood    Confession

    Luciana had her head rested on Raziel's chest with her eyes closed, inhaling his scent which she had gotten familiar with. While Raziel held her waist, pulling her closer to himself. She was still sitting at the edge of the table and he in between her legs. They had gone at it three times, and he decided to give her a rest."Are you okay Lucy?" He asked as he brought one hand to smoothen her disheveled hair. Luciana who couldn't find her voice at the moment could only nod her head. She smiled at the question. He always made sure she was okay after every love making. He was so watchful and observant, not wanting to do anything that would hurt her the least.She never thought she was the type to have her heart melt at simple words and gestures. She had never been the type to crave for romance. Now she had it, and she would do anything to keep it.A gentle smile curved on her lips, and she opened her eyes. She felt her heart pounding, and she was aware that he could hear it, but she did

  • Bound by Blood    Urges and desires

    Luciana and Raziel's alone time was cut short when the members of the king's council arrived the castle. The members were already seated around a large and long rectangular table in the throne room, when Raziel and Luciana entered, hand in hand. There were murmurs before they entered, but it died down as they were spotted. Raziel led Luciana to sit on a chair at one end of the table, while he sat on the other. The people didn't fail to notice the air around them. It was as if they found peace in each other. It was obvious that they would rather be on their own at that moment.When Raziel sat down, it was quiet for a while before he eventually started."It was brought to my notice that you had something crucial to discuss with me and the queen, may I know what it is?"One of the dukes cleared his throat. "Your majesty, ever since your father passed, and especially ever since your coronation, they had been increasing complaints about you. People say that you don't listen to them, and

  • Bound by Blood    The games

    Dahlia stared at the general still in a state of shock. She saw his eyes, and there was no mistaking what she saw in them; desires.It then occured to her that perhaps he had always desired her, but he controlled himself out of respect for her. Now he wanted her to see, and she was surprised that she affected him that much.Lorenzo on the other hand didn't take his eyes off her, nor did he try to hide the desires in them. He still stared at her with that almost predatory look, and she gulped nervously. But she couldn't just back down, she was too proud for that."May I know how you play your games Enzo?" She asked with a low tone, not tearing her gaze from him as well, as if she was challenging him.She saw him shut his eyes and let out a deep sigh, his chest heaving along. When he opened them again, her heart skipped.He suddenly wrapped one hand around her waist and pulled her close to himself, until she collided with his sturdy chest. She gasped in shock. He acted so fast that she

  • Bound by Blood    A confession of flowers

    Dahlia lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep, her mind occupied with what transpired between Lorenzo and her. She didn't expect it to end that way. She expected to just tease him and leave as she usually did, but he had played along, and she couldn't deny how affected she was.It had been hours since their encounter, and yet she still felt the tingling and electrifying sensation zap through her anytime she thought of him. She was restless, so restless, angry even. How dare he? She felt like going back to him to pay him back, but she decided against it. She didn't want him to think of her as desperate... Wait! Since when did she begin to care about such?She wondered why she was even feeling this way. It wasn't as if she was new to these intimate acts, but she just found him different from the others. Perhaps it was because she was only playing back then.She was mostly always locked in, and the few times that she managed to step out, she would always want to explore.The t

    Raziel was suddenly behind Luciana. He placed his hands on both her shoulders, then he leaned down to kiss her cheek. "I hope you like my surprise, love. I am not so great with them.""You out did yourself." She praised. She then turned to him, her lips meeting with his. Placing her hands on his shoulders, she stood up, while his hands went to cup her bum. He gave her a soft squeeze and she giggled.Raziel pulled away from this kiss, and took her hand. "Come."Luciana wondered where he was going to take her, or what he wanted to show her. She followed him without questions anyway.The vampire king suddenly carried her and leaped with her to a high cliff, stopping at the edge of it. She looked down and saw a body of water there. She followed it with her eyes, and traced it to a waterfall not too far from where they were. The place was surrounded by greeneries and flowers, making it appear beautiful. It looked somewhat magical.Looking down at the water, it brought back memories. She ha

    Time rolled by fast, and soon it was time for Luciana to deliver. The midwives did their best to ease her pain, and make her comfortable, but it was still a hell of pain for her. Raziel stayed with her all through, holding her hand, giving her his comfort, but even that did not work this time. She ended up hitting and scratching him for the most time. After a moment of difficulty and pain, the baby finally came out. When Luciana heard the cry, all the pain was forgotten. She wanted to reach up for the baby, but the midwife already placed it on her chest. "Congratulations, your majesty. It's a boy." She glanced at Raziel who had his eyes on the baby, before returning her eyes to the miniature being. She stared at the child, her eyes becoming moist. There was this feeling of completeness she had just from staring at him, from hearing his little cries. Raziel still held her hand, kissing the back of her palm as he watched his baby in the arms of his precious wife. He had expected this

    The next few days with Elric were the best for Freya. He had always treated her good, but now he treated her like something so delicate, so precious, so valued. She never knew that she could fall more for him, but she thought wrong. What was there not to fall for? Sometimes she wondered if he was only a figment of her imagination because he was so perfect.Everything was going so perfectly. The construction for her foundation was ongoing, and he had introduced her to some individuals of high status, and they had also supported her. She knew that some of them just wanted to be close to Elric, but she would take every support. At least, they would help her create awareness.It was all laughter and fun, until the night of the next full moon. She had been worried the whole day, and Elric was the one calming her down. There was a chance that he would not pass through his usual episodes, but the uncertainty gnawed at her.Night finally came, and the moon came out. She lay beside him, prepar

    Elric stared at Freya, concern filling his gaze. She seemed a little frightened, as she hugged herself, her heart beat rising, almost as if she was going into a panic."Are you okay? Did I hurt you?"She shook her head. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to push you. I just..." She gasped. Just as he was about taking her clothes off, she had a flash back of when she was in Lord Kruger's mansion, and she was forced out of her clothes."Tell me." He urges her on gently, and she took a deep breath."I... it felt like... I only remembered when I was in Lord Kruger's house. He always took my clothes off." She then confessed in one breath, her body trembling a little."Come here." He pulled her into his embrace. "Don't worry, we will take it slowly." He placed a soft kiss on the top of her head, calming her down. "I'm am not Kruger, and I will never ever hurt you." He assured her. "Remember what I told you when you were afraid of letting anyone touch you? I said it was your mind playing tricks on yo

    Freya woke up the next morning, wanting to get out of bed. Then she discovered that there was a weight holding her down. That was when she realized that Elric had slept on her bed. She screamed internally. Now she didn't feel like getting up again.She turned to him, staring at his face. How could someone look so good? Her eyes fell to his lips, and she remembered their kiss the previous night.Elric's lips slowly curved into a smile, and she realized that he was awake."Good morning." He greeted in a low but husky morning voice, and her heart did a little flip. This man was trying her patience. He even had dimples... Ugh!"How long have you been awake?" She asked."A long while now.""And you didn't get up?""I prefer lying down here with you."Oh no, he just woke up and decided to attack her heart.His eyes suddenly opened to meet her orbs, staring back at him."As much as I would love to stay here all day, I have to get up."She nodded in understanding. "How do you feel now?" She c

    Freya didn't let Elric get up, as she basically jumped on him, and he fell back into the bed."You are okay!" She exclaimed, hugging him, her hands tightly wounded around his neck. "You scared me, you scared me so much." She whispered to him."I'm sorry I put you through that." He whispered back, stroking her hair. "I'm really sorry."Luciana and Raziel gave each other a look, before deciding to leave them to their privacy.After hugging him for a little while longer, she pulled herself up, but her legs still straddled him. "How are you feeling? Did it work?"Elric's brows furrowed, before he realized. She had actually stabbed him. That was why he lost consciousness in the first place. What did she use? He remembered the excruciating pain he felt."What did you do to me?"She thinned as lips, as she prepared herself to answer. "Please don't get angry.""I only want to know."She nodded, feeling a little nervous. "It was the vampire poison. Luciana and I... We wanted to kill your vampi

    Freya didn't know when the hours passed, but the next time she raised her head, it was already morning, and Elric was still yet to wake up. She got up, utterly tired. She didn't sleep at all through the night, hoping that he would wake up.She paced around the room restlessly in confusion, refusing to believe what her mind was telling her. She believed that he would wake up. Perhaps it would just take a little while to work. After walking for a while, she sat on the floor, her back against the wall.She stayed like that for only a few seconds before going back to the bed. She rested her head on his chest to check for his heart beat, but she still heard nothing. Her heart sank to her stomach, and she reached to clutch her own chest. Terror gripped her so hard, she felt like it would fall off.She suddenly burst into laughter. This was all a joke right? Perhaps it was a very bad dream. Because this could not be happening to her. She didn't fall completely and stupidly in love with him j

    Freya engaged Elric's in talks and some fun games to keep his mind occupied. She also tried playing with his hair, making it the way her mother used to do for her and Luciana, making him appear a bit feminine. She thought he was still handsome in it though. It was as if her attempts to distract him was actually working, as he was still doing a good job controlling himself.But even with all her efforts, Freya couldn't prevent the inevitable. She noticed that he was beginning to experience his torture again when she saw that his palms were tightly clenched, and he had also gone quiet, leaving her to do all the talking. He also had his eyes tightly shut.She reached for his clenched fists, and was surprised to feel moisture. His claws has elongated, and he had wounded himself.Her heart pounded rapidly in her chest, and she just reached to hold his clenched fists. This seemed like it was going to be a very long night."Hey, how are you feeling?" She couldn't help but ask. She wanted to

    Luciana gave Freya a small dagger, coated with the poison. Freya's heart skipped at the reality of the situation was beginning to dawn on her. This was a really really big risk to take, and the 'what ifs' were too much."Do you need me to stay back and help you with it?" Luciana offered when she noticed Freya's nervousness, but Freya shook her head in refusal."I want to do this. And I think Raziel would throw me in your dungeons if I keep you too long." She joked, and Luciana laughed."Alright then. I wouldn't like to plead on your behalf. People might think I'm bias because you are my sister."Freya only chuckled a bit. "Thank you Lucy. It was nice having you over."After Luciana and Raziel had left, Freya became overly aware of the time. She also kept a very close eye on Elric to know if he planned on leaving the house. But he was just still very much like himself, and it didn't seem like he planned to go anywhere. She still asked Alice to keep an eye on him, just in case she misse

  • Bound by Blood    A much needed closure

    Freya was floating among the clouds as she recalled the kiss between her and Elric the previous day. She was currently lying on her bed, but she couldn't help the smile on her face. She decided to write to Luciana."Calm down Freya, it's only a kiss." She scolded herself as she got up. She had been telling herself that since the kiss happened, especially when she was close to Elric.At dinner the previous night, she thought it was going to be awkward between them, but it wasn't at all. He was very casual, and even a little more touchy. Perhaps he would think she was acting like a child. Actually, anyone would think that she was acting like a child.She was suddenly pulled out of her thoughts by a knock on the door. Her heart skipped a little, thinking it was Elric. She opened the door only to find Alice."Good morning, Lady Freya. Did I wake you up?"Freya shook her head. "Not at all. I have been up for a while.
