Raziel had just closed his eyes to sleep when he heard a knock on the door. From the way the person knocked, he could tell that it wasn't a servant. It could only be one person; the entitled princess. Would he have to deal with her every night? He then pretended to be asleep, hoping she would leave.

The knock came again, followed by a bang, sending the door flying open.

What the hell?!"

He still pretended to be asleep, his breath even.

But the princess didn't care. She came and slapped his legs in a way that sent him jumping up.

"Raziel!" She called, eyes blazing with fury. "First you brought the human slave into your room, I didn't complain. Then you went out with her. Don't you have any shame? I understand that she's your mistress, but you should at least chosen someone with class. How could you even sleep with a human? You are the esteemed vampire prince..."

She kept on speaking, while Raziel kept staring at her, wondering wha

    Luciana struggled to get out of the water, her lungs burning. She had been looking forward to her death, but she didn't think it would come in this manner. At least not in the hands of this person.Just when she had given up, she felt the hand holding her release her at once, before she heard a thud. Then she felt someone pull her out of the water. She heard faint voices, like someone was scolding another person, but she couldn't make out the words. Her eyes became blurry, before her vision gave away.Raziel was surprised at the scene he met. One of the castle's guards assigned to follow princess Evelyn was the one who told him what was going on, and he rushed over there. The guard had informed him that it was one of his girls, and he got there and saw that it was Luciana.Raziel quickly pulled the princess away from her, sending her landing somewhere he didn't care to note. He pulled the human girl out of the water, not sure if she was dead or alive, but

    Not long after Luciana got back, she came outside, wanting to go to the laboratory. She then realized that the prince gave her a pendant that could permit her to use the laboratory, but no means to go there. She wondered if she could go on foot. It was far, and her body felt very weak. She decided to go anyway.She was only at the castle's gate when she heard the prince's voice."Luciana." He sounded surprised. He didn't expect that she would still be on her feet, looking for where to go after what she had experienced that day.Luciana turned to him. "Your highness.""Where are you going?""To the laboratory." She answered honestly.He shook his head. "After what you have gone through today?"Luciana remained silent. He walked up to her and looked her in the eyes. Her face held no expression, just blank. Her eyes made it obvious that she lacked sleep a lot, and he could tell she was tired from how she walked. Her eyes lo

    Luciana tried her best to finish the food given to her, but she couldn't. She had even eaten about half of the portion given to her, which was very unlike her, just so she could use the laboratory. But she wondered if the prince would let her go with just that portion.After forcing herself a little more, she gave up and dropped the food. She decided to go to the inn to get her notes where she had things written."Where have you been?" Rebecca asked the human the moment she stepped her foot inside. She had her hands crossed across her chest and there was a smirk on her lips. She believed that the princess must have thought her a lesson. The human even looked rougher than she usually looked.Luciana rolled her eyes. The dog would never give up."I have been with the prince." Luciana replied with a smile that she was sure would sting her.Rebecca's smiled died down immediately, and it was replaced by a glower."Liar. The princess would not a

    Luciana snuck some arrow into her new room to soak them in her vampire poison mixture, and left it there. She hoped to use it soon.Meanwhile it was a day to Raziel and Evelyn's wedding, and the princess had not spoken to him since she was released. She was still angry at him for how he treated her, but she was still willing to marry him.The servants were very busy in preparation for the wedding, while Evelyn was busy giving instructions to everyone. There were important guests from different range of nobilities, all wanting to attend the important event.Raziel was in his room as he was asked by his father to give his duties to Lorenzo. He lay on the bed, wanting to sleep the day away in peace. But his peace was short lived when the door opened and his father stepped in."Raziel we need to talk." What was it this time?"Have you seen your future bride?" The king asked."No father.""Did you ask of her?"

    Evelyn's father stood up angrily from the seat, followed by his wife. Raziel's father also stood and they all went to the front, where the knight stood."Where is he? Where is that prince?" Evelyn's father yelled as his chest heaved up and down in anger, drawing the guests' attention to them."Where did he say he was going? What work does he have?" Raziel's father asked."I have no idea your majesty. He would not tell me.""Don't tell me he left already.""He did your majesty."The king was aware that most of the guests were supernaturals, and some of them could hear them, so he signalled for Evelyn's parents to calm down, but they weren't having it."This is an insult to my daughter, my family, my whole kingdom." The entire hall became tensed, and the guests started to murmur.Raziel's father turned to the knight."Gather your men, find the prince and bring him here.""Your majesty?" The knight tho

  • Bound by Blood    You killed him?

    Luciana decided to take a stroll around outside the castle. She spent her day reading. With Raziel's permission, she brought some of the books into her new room. She expected that princess Evelyn would move her out of the prince's quarters after the wedding, but she didn't bother to leave. The prince hadn't asked her to leave anyway. Now she heard that Raziel abandoned Evelyn, she couldn't help but find the situation funny. The prince was something else. And she believed that it served the spoilt and pompous princess right.Luciana didn't realize how far she had walked until she heard a high pitched scream from afar. She had taken some of the arrows she experimented on with her just in case the need might arise. She wondered if she was going to use them that evening. But then she heard the scream again, this time even louder.It was coming from a girl, and it was a distressed cry. She wondered what was happening to her.Luciana quickly traced the

    Luciana was sweating profusely, while Raziel stood, watching her dig a grave. For a frail woman like her, she sure had a lot of determination. Every now and then, he would be scared that she would collapse, but he still didn't help her. He wanted to see how far she would go.She suddenly dropped the shovel, and said. "I am tired."Raziel smiled and thought she was going to ask him for help, but instead the human girl just lay in her half dug grave.Raziel didn't know how much time they have spent, but he knew that he had spent hours watching her. And this was the first time she tried to rest."Are you aware you are in trouble Luciana?" He asked curiously."Yes." She answered curtly, as she placed both hand under hear head, imitating a pillow."For what?" Raziel asked again."I killed the vampires, and I would be charged for murder."Raziel shook his head. So she was aware."But you know I can help you."

    "Finn!" Luciana yelled as she sprang up from her bed. That was her little brother's name, and she just woke up from a nightmare where she saw him being stabbed. Sometimes she felt like she could feel the physical pain. But she believed that no physical pain could be greater than the pain in her heart.Her chest heaved up and down, and she felt her eyes sting. She immediately reached for the side of the bed where she had kept her knife and grabbed it. She thought of cutting her wrist, but she didn't want the prince to see it and take her to the physician again.Instead she decided to cut her upper arm, where her sleeves would cover, and he would not see it. If she bath and wash up, he would not be able to smell it. She then began to cut herself from her upper arms upwards, even though she still felt the urge to cut her wrist. After she was done, she found out that she had wounded herself a little too much, even up to her shoulder and back. She sh

    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. Is there a problem?""The duke wants to speak to you. He is in the balcon
