Contract Marriage with the Vampire Ch-55
Faith loved being in William's arms more then she cared to admit. The car pulled into a warehouse in the busy harbour, the heady scent of fish assaulting her senses as they stepped out, the fishermen taking no notice of the seemingly suspicious vehicles coming in through the back entrance and skidding to a halt. Faith flinched as she watched one man lopping the fish's heads off systematically with no remorse, but she didn't have much time to feel uneased about the amount of thick red blood as William swooped his arm around her shoulders and pulled her along. They escaped down through the basement, William stopping every few minutes for yet another retina, finger scan or password to be put in to release the door or wall from its clever locks. She had no idea how he could remember it all! Eventually they passed into a dark room with a winding metal staircase leaning against the far corner, with two guards following behind them.They started up the staircase, Faith realising how unfit sh

William went and visited Faith later on that evening as promised, confirming what Hope had told her about the injuries. The troublesome human's device was disarmed swiftly, meaning there were no casualties. There was the capability of fatalities though. Florence also visited, jumping on Faith and knocking her to the floor with an excited squeal. Faith nearly had a heart attack, and had bruises to confirm Florence's concern for her.The next morning William found her in the kitchen eating breakfast with Hope. Ever since they had arrived, there was an abundance of food enough to keep six families going for weeks, much to their delight. It was a bit like a vacation for them – apart from the kidnapping part. There was an excited buzz in the palace with a flurry of maids and staff bouncing through the halls preparing for their King and Queen's annual ball in only two days. It was certainly very busy, and gave birth to a fresher, more alive atmosphere. Of course, the ball would not work out

"Faith! Hope!" Florence screeched excitedly, causing the women in question to nearly have heart attacks.It had been a few hours since her encounter with William and Sir Hartley, but it was at the forefront of Faith's mind, constantly torturing her with every little action and word she said. She was going crazy. She was currently in the library with Hope, trying to read to take her mind off things. It was the only place that wasn't being prepped and primed for the ball by an excited army of maids and planners."Goodness Florence, you scared the life out of me!" Faith chuckled with her hand on her heart."Me too!" Hope piped in."Sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt your reading, not that it looks like you're doing much Faith – your book is upside down." Florence announced with a wicked grin.Faith blushed bright red as she realised Florence was indeed correct, but she couldn't give a valid reason as to why she was so lost in her head. Telling her audience about her feelings for William w
Contract Marriage with the Vampire Ch-58
Being unable to sleep seemed to be a reoccurring theme in Faith's life. It was a sign of guilt. However, that night was especially bad as it was the night before the ball. Guilt and nerves weren't the best mix of emotions for an unblemished nights sleep. Hope was sleeping soundly, taking up three quarters of the bed, but Faith just could not shut her mind down. She realised there was no reason for her to keep pretending to be sleeping as she obviously wasn't going to drift off anytime soon. Getting up with a tired sigh, she slumped on her dressing gown and then made her way out of the room and to the library. She was glad William had stopped locking her door.She was on her way, trudging like a zombie through the hallways, when she finally arrived at the library. But as she went to push the door open, it was yanked from the other side and she fell into someone's chest. She immediately realised it was William."Oh, Faith! Are you ok?" He questioned as he steadied her on her feet, his b
Contract Marriage with the Vampire Ch-59
Faith awoke the next day feeling terrible. Her reflection in the mirror showed as much, with her ghastly pale complexion, dark semi-circles under her eyes and limp hair. After William dropped her at her door like an unwanted infant, she hurried inside with barely contained tears and cried herself to sleep. It was pitiful, she knew. That morning she was pleased in some ways that she hadn't spilled the truth in a moment of whimsical bliss. The guilt was still simmering below the surface, but she knew keeping the truth hidden was for the best. When the hunters found out that the vampire's knew, and the ball was cancelled, there would have been a massacre with unnecessary bloodshed, all because of Faith's big mouth. She certainly did not want that resting on her shoulders, so she was prepared to just go along with the plan and hope that William and his family didn't detest her forever for her actions. Something deep inside her told her that that result was inescapable though, alongside th

"I'm just sad I have to forget and leave all this behind." Faith sighed guiltily.Jane nodded sadly and spilled an apology - "I'm sorry too Faith... personally I think that..." However, Faith never got a chance to hear what she was going to say, as a maid knocked on the door and told them they had to get into position for the grand entrance. The interruption broke the connection they had, shattering Faith's insecurities. She really did want to tell Jane the truth, but she knew the situation was bigger then her and her relationships and feelings – it was about the vampire races survival! Jane would undoubtedly become angry and warn everyone, causing war and death. The government would have a reason to kill everyone, and Faith couldn't deal with that, because she loved them all like family. Even if they hated her, their survival would be better then death. Only a couple more hours and everything would be out in the open anyway."Are you ready to go?" She asked the queen in what she hope
Contract Marriage with the Vampire Ch-61
Faith knew it was time. There was no going back now. A sudden overwhelming urge to stop it all and warn the royal family of their upcoming transformation plagued her, but she knew she shouldn't... couldn't. The drinks were already swarming their way into the hall, and Faith felt more and more like crying, as she watched the vampires start to crowd round and take a shot glass of dilitírio, the famous vivid blue liquid considered a vampire delicacy. She had to follow Nancy's direction and avoid her emotions. Everyone was carelessly laughing and making small talk amongst themselves, having no idea that they were about to be transformed back into humans.Faith heard someone call her name, and turning around to face the room leading to the balcony, she saw a waitress with cold steely eyes staring at her grimly. With shaking hands, Faith stumbled closer to her, and thankfully everyone else was too busy talking to each other to notice where her attention laid. In the waitresses' hands was a

"Wait, kill them? What about the cure?" Nancy exclaimed frightfully as Faith struggled to sit up with the help of her sobbing sister.The Emperor snorted distastefully. "There is no cure little girl.""W-what do you mean? You said – I saw it!" Nancy panicked."It was all fake, but thank you for all of your hard work and effort, we really appreciate it." He said as he grinned cruelly at Nancy who looked like she was going to either pass out or have a heart attack."But what about my brother!" She cried, looking paler then usual, as her first tears made their appearance."He will be dealt with along with the rest of his disgusting kind.""No! Please!" Nancy cried, realising she had made a huge mistake."What's going on in here?" A harsh voice asked from across the room.Faith turned her head to the side, and was just able to make out Sir Hartley and a few other vampire's forms. How was he still awake?"What do you mean there's no cure?" A girl, which Faith recognised as one of the maids

Contract Marriage with the Vampire Epilogue
Well it is Thursday again which means I've got a date with the devil, and no I don't mean Ajax, I mean his sisters, both of them. They love me as much as I love them, making Thursday night my favourite of the week.Apparently Giri's brother requires their garage tonight meaning the boys are practicing in Ajax's room. This has created a new problem as Nessie and Miya want to watch their brother, giggling at his very explicit instructions to keep out. I have to keep catching them and taking them back downstairs, which means the girls now view it as a game to try and breach Ajax's room, which is leading to a very tiring night for me. I can't be too firm with them as they aren't my kids, yet they are taking my calm instructions to stay downstairs as a joke. Can you tell I'm stressed? Up and down and up and down and up and down the stairs we have been, chasing the little rascals around and throwing them over my shoulder as they try to make a run for it.I didn't know having kids could be s

I am riding to school with Ajax this morning. Tiger sent me a gloomy message after I got home from Maisie's last night saying she has to go in early, and I didn't want to get up any earlier then I have to. I told Ajax about my little problem and he insisted I ride with him. He finally has a new phone and keeps bugging me with messages. Well, it's not really an annoyance when I'm literally counting the seconds until he messages again. My stomach twists up in knots and a nervous blush coats my cheeks whenever I'm around him. It's like my body just cannot handle his hotness. I've always been quiet, but never shy, especially not around my friends, and I guess Ajax is my friend. Although some part of me doesn't like the idea of that.I hurry out of my house right on time to find him leaning against his insanely cool car, waiting for me with a teasing smirk. His 1970s Chevy Camaro is a smooth inky black in colour with a thick white stripe reaching towards the windscreen on the bonnet. A pic

SEVEN AND A BIT YEARS LATER..."Ah fvck!" I curse, tears beading in my eyes as another wave of pain washes through my stomach.Dammit, that's another pound in the swear jar. Yes, that's right, we officially have a swear jar that travels everywhere with us, trying to curve our bad language habits. It's been going ok, well, ok for me, but Vincent swears like a sailor so I've been making millions off him. Since he met his mate Clarity, he's been much happier and turned into a better man, which is lovely to witness. She is a tiny thing, actually smaller then me so she is the butt of many jokes, but she has an amazing sense of humour, and finds the good in everything, so she doesn't take offence."Ow, ow, ow, ow! When will this be over?" I moan, squeezing Alex's hand so tightly I swear I can feel the bones shift."Its ok baby, just breathe, just breathe." Alex murmurs supportively."Don't tell me what to do! This is all your fault!" I yell, the pain unexplainable."Ok I'm sorry, its fine,

I have never been a fan of air travel, but Alex's private plane does help. I am pretty freaking scared about meeting my Alex's parents, but it is an inevitable event; I am the heir to the throne as I'm mated to their son. According to Alex there is a ball being held in my honour tomorrow night, with some of the most influential and powerful were's and lycans in the world in attendance. I am quite nervous about my debut into society, but Ana who returned to Russia last week has promised me that there is nothing to worry about, and has helped plan the event. I guess if anything, it is pretty flattering having a whole ball dedicated to me. I'm sure I'll be bombarded with introductions and will have to follow royal protocol tomorrow night, but having Alex by my side will give me the strength to persevere through it.As we got off the plane, (Vincent, Lucian and Sapphire travelled with us) a fleet of royal cars and bodyguards were waiting for us, reminding me once again that I'm no longer

*Smut warning - very mature!!*"Woohoo! This party is great!" I yell over the thundering beat to Alex, whom I am currently dancing with, lost in the sea of bodies.It is finally Halloween, and I managed to persuade Alex to come out to Celestrina's party with me. It has been four months since we mated, and everything has been just wonderful. Next week we are leaving to Russia with our pack to meet Alex's parents – aka the freaking King and Queen of all Lycanthropes. I am quite nervous, but I'm sure they'll love me. I will be the sunniest ball of sunshine they have ever met! Celestrina is doing great as a werewolf. It took her a while to adjust, but now she's loving being a part of the superior race. I told her about me being a Lycan, and she was amazed, but really happy when I told her the whole story of my life. She has decided to take a gap year before she heads off to college, to make sure that she has her wolf under control, and has learnt the ways of a were.Her Halloween party is
Contract Marriage with the Vampire Ch-116
Seven Years later...Sometimes I wonder how my life would've turned out if I had dug my heels in and never went to Lupine Peak. I don't doubt that I eventually could have changed my dads mind; I can be pretty stubborn at times. It's scary to think about how different my life would be – I wouldn't have met my soulmate, Alex, found loyal friends ready to sacrifice their lives for me, and definitely wouldn't be preparing to be crowned Queen, alongside my Alex, who is also now my husband. We decided on a small ceremony a year after we mated, (mostly just for show for my dad and other human family) at one of Alex's private Islands, this one located in the Maldives. It was absolutely beautiful, and a memory I will never forget. After a few days there, we went to Bora Bora for an Instagram worthy honeymoon, where our backyard was waves of royal blue, soft and gentle, just begging to be swam in. After our few weeks in paradise, we returned to Russia as a united force, ready to begin my Queenl

My eyes are suddenly open though I can't think of why; my heart is pounding, mind empty. It's as if a hypodermic of adrenaline has been emptied into my carotid. I strain into the utter darkness; my breathing rate increased ten fold. There is something inside of me, straining to burst out. Ghostly whispers in my ear urge me to get outside, to be in sight of the moon. At this point, I am panting, and drizzled in sweat. I vaguely hear Alex awake from beside me as I stumble out of the bed and tumble to the floor, my sight blurry. Alex murmurs from behind me as I rush unsteadily to the window, something pulsing, trying to rip out of my chest.Feeling like I can't breathe, I use my remaining strength to smash out of the window, and tumble into the garden below. I feel something snap as I land with a thud on the floor, momentarily stunning me, but I don't register the pain, too preoccupied with whatever is clawing around inside of me. There is a roar before a thud reverberates through the gr

"Oh Phoebe... I'm so happy you guys are together now! So this means you're staying, right?" Tammy asks anxiously as Alex and I part for breath, the group still stood by the door."Hmm... I'll think about it." I wink playfully.In response, Alex's arms tighten possessively around me, and he growls in my ear: "You're mine now kitten. I'm not letting you go."The vibrations from his deep, husky voice throb straight to my core, causing my legs to clench around Alex, and me to bite my bottom lip hard to stop a wanton moan from flying out. Taking a deep breath to control my raging emotions, I turn back to Tammy."I'm joking... of course I'll stay here, where ever Alex goes, I go." I explain whilst sinking my head into Alex's hard chest, comforted by his roaring heartbeat."You've made me the happiest man in the world Phoebe." I hear Alex murmur above me, and then plant a tender kiss on my head."Aww, you two are the cutest! You've made my brother soft." Ana chuckles, interrupting the tender
Contract Marriage with the Vampire Ch-113
As we pull up at the mansion, I feel like I'm housing a whole damn zoo in my stomach. I find some relief in the fact that I can't sense Alex here, meaning I have some more time to relax and think about what I'm going to say. A wave of nostalgia washes over me as I take in the beautiful mansion, walking up the white marble steps to the ornate front door. I have lived here, cried here, loved here and almost died here. It most certainly will always be scrapbooked into my memory. As I enter into the grand palace, my dad with his arm wrapped around me, we encounter a shocked Vincent."Phoebe! I thought I could sme... hear you!" He gasps, an easy smile gliding onto his face smooth as butter."Hi Vincent. I've come to see Alex... oh and this is my dad, Ricky." I explain hastily."Oh that's real great Phoebe. He should be back soon. Hi Ricky, would you like me to show you around?" Vincent easily charms my dad."Yea sure, nice to meet you. Take it easy Phoebs, and just call me if you need any
