Chapter 3

Alicia

The blood covered almost every surface on the floor, and what was left of the bodies were thrown into a pile. Most vampires seemed cheerful and also a bit high from the rush the blood had provided them. He however seemed to be unaffected by it. As if is he could handle more then the others. His clothes, arms and face where dripping of blood as he turned towards a few people in the back of the room.

"Clean this mess up! And fix me a bath in my new chamber," he said with a strong voice and turned his attention toward me at his last comment.

I was curled up as far away from the thrown and the scene as the chain allowed me. My arms were crossed over my chest and tears seeping down my chin. 'What did just happen? What have I done? How could I ever allowed it? Oh let me die now.' my eyes where gazing toward the non-existing horizon and my breath were quick and ragged. The fear had taken a hold of my body and I felt locked inside of it. My head was spinning and as I had disappeared into the mist of thought, fear and future I felt a strong and wet hand grabbing my head over my mouth and pulling me upward. I woke up to the harsh reality and felt my nose fill up with the distinct smell of blood.

"Noooooooooooo," my screams were hushed by his hand, but my lounges had never mustered such sound as I tried to express my sorrow and grief. Not only for the people in the room but the kingdom, my fighters and the terrible situation this man had put me in. My body was shaking violently, but he only stood in front of me observing my reaction with a smirk. As my screams had died out, and only spasms once in a while rocked my body he leaned down and looked me in the eyes.

"Bow down to me slave!", it was a harsh command and with it he let go of me as if dropping something rotten from his hands. Once again, he did not force me, with the powers he possessed over my body. He wished me to make the choice, but really there was no choice to make. From the day I took the crown I had sworn to protect my people. That was exactly what I was going to do, no mater what it would bring.

Slowly my head fell as far down as the chain allowed me. I let my body slide to the floor in a sign of the fake respect I showed to please him. 'Damn it, I have to please him, to protect my people.' Then I felt a hand started to stroke my hair, he was hovering just above me. Slowly caressing my earlobe down to my neck and down my throat to my chin. I fought the nauseating feeling it gave me when his fingers smeared the blood that was now dripping from my hair.

Him "Her master"

'Her bow had been reluctant, but the scene I had created just a moment ago had finally made the very proud ex-princess Alicia to forfeit. I was sure, there would be more fights before she could be anything as compliant as Lauren, if she ever would be. On the other hand that was the challenge that made it fun, bringing her to the breaking point time after time, until she stopped fighting my power and become a real slave. Until that point she will be my toy and I know she will amuse me.' She continued bowing down, and I stroke my hand in her hair, smearing the blood of the people I just enjoyed ripping apart. 'So beautiful, and her blood smelled amazing!' I leaned in a bit just to appreciate the smell and I smiled to my self as I came up with a new little game I wanted to play with her.

"Bring her to my chamber and call for Lauren!", I ordered the guards in my usual monotone voice. 'They should be on edge around me, that was the respect I demanded from my subjects.' She had frozen up a bit from my words.

"Let´s have some fun shall we?" I continued teasing her and got her out of the chained collar and through her at the guards.

She stumbled and almost fell, but they cached her and the look that where in her eyes was expressing the fear she felt for what was to come. 'Let the game begin'

Alicia

I was dragged into what used to be my old room, the guard gripped my arms behind my back and forced them up so he could grip them with one hand. He seemed a bit drunk from the massacre he had just taken part of. Smiling enjoying the power he had over me. He took his other hand and snaked it around my waste pulling my back closer to him and I could feel something tightening and poking me in the back. 'Ewe, that is disgusting' He dragged me in front of the huge bed and stood about a meter from it.

"BAAM!"

The door flew open and he walked in, looking all-proud over himself. He was definitely up to something. He stopped in front of me smirking, probably because of my arms where tight behind my back, which made my cheats pushed forward. 'I bet this is something he enjoys.' He took his hand to my cheek stroking away some of the drying blood.

"Now, I am going to show you the life of a proper slave," he said and paused for a moment leaning towards me "it is just a matter of time before you will be begging me to do the same to you." He whispered the last part close to my ear and shivers traveled down my thigh.

"Lauren!" he screamed as he fell down over and laid on the bed looking up in the sealing. The big brown oak doors open and Lauren quickly walked inside getting down into a deep bow where she remained.

"What can I do for you master?"

"I am feeling in the mood for something more to drink."

"Very well, would I due?" She asked in a very hopeful voice. 'Would she due? Are she seriously asking if she is good enough to become food?!' I was angered by the thought but said nothing.

She was meet with silence as if he thought it over, before glancing her up and down.

"Well I suppose you would," he said monotony.

She practically jumped forward towards him and he got up from the bed just in front of me. The guard suddenly pushed my legs open and then pushed me down towards the floor so that I was half sitting/ standing on my knees spread apart and the guard had his legs in between mine to ensure they was held open. I felt him smile against my neck and I tried to struggle out of his very tight grip around me. He then grasped my face with his free hand and forced me to look at the two in front of me.

Laura had turned around with her back against him, and she had taken away her hair from her neck. He had grabbed her waist with one hand and was right now holding the other over her neck and just like that, her bracelets and necklace came of. 'What was that? How did he just loosen them without touching them?'

He smirked at me and then returned to the attention of Laurens neckline, He stroked it slowly with his finger, and her reaction was instant, she started to lightly shake and her breath became ragged as her cheeks where flustered. Then he continued stroking her down her arm as he blew breathes, and placing small kisses at the base of her neck.

"Yes… please," she moaned as her head was falling backward towards his strong shoulders.

He took up her arm and gave it a small kiss and a lick before his fangs came out and started to tear at the sensitive skin. Then the bite down into her and a gasp came out of her. My eyes shoot open at what I saw, she was actually enjoying what he did to her and deep inside of me there was something that wished him to do the same to me. 'No, I cant think like that.' I tried to shake the feeling and as I once again got focused at them he had changed to attacking her neck instead.

Her breath was picking up even more and small gasps and moan came every now and then as he slowly drained the blood from her body. He shoot his eyes up at me as he continued drinking her in, as if he was trying to say 'your next, this will be you soon', it hurt me and I tried to escape his gaze but I couldn't I was forced to look, he held my eyes open It was all apart of my debt. She was pushed down just like me on the ground and we were practically embracing each other with the two vampires at our backs. He let go of her and then looked at the guard behind me,

"Go ahead Matheius, I sense your thirst is not yet satisfied! Have some of this slave," he said as he gesticulated towards the pale Lauren in his arms. She was pressed to me when the guard, Matheius, leaned over on the left side of my head and bite down into the other side of her neck harshly and I hears a faint whimper from Lauren.

My eyes where still stuck on 'my master' and he took my emotions in with a smirk as he leaned over Lauren towards my neck. Her blood dripped down on my neck and his nose smeared it out on me. It made me shiver and fight toward the feeling I had that all I wanted was for him to sink his teeth inside of me.

"No, please don´t… Master I beg of you," I tried everything but the plea was more towards my own feelings then to the act it self. I used master just to get his attention to my plea. 'I can´t be bitten, not now, rather never, but not now' Tears where pooling up my eyes again.

"Hush slave," he said as his eyes once again trailed up my neck to my eyes.

"All comes with time," he whispered.

"That's enough Matheius!", he ordered out and the guard let go of Laurens neck and then she fell down on the floor between the three of us.

I suddenly felt Matheius nuzzling my neck and I froze as his arms tightened around my body so my back was pressed up towards him.

"Matheius!" A roar came from in front of me and the nuzzling stopped, Another strong arm was sneaked around my waste and I was pulled forward. But it toke about 5 sec. before Matheius let go and as I was in the middle between them it was as a small war was played in front of me. But then he let go and my master pulled me over Lauren and to his side.

"You forget your place!" he barked out.

"Take the other slave back to their coaters and make sure she is looked after. And bring Elza here!" He was short and demanding towards the guard. 'Matheius actually seemed to be a bit more then only a guard'

...

When Matheius had left, I realized who was holding me and what I just witness. My feelings where all over the place and I had no idea how to react. My body was betraying me and he was looking at me like I was a shiny new toy he could not wait to play with. 'What is he going to do to me?
