King of Vampires   Fancy Schmancy
Sacha stayed with me for the rest of the week and went back to her house on Saturday to pack up her mother's things, arguing she needed to do it alone when I insisted on going with her. Her stubbornness won the argument for her.Therefore I answered Lanie's summons when she called me on Saturday morning to go dress shopping, exuding excitement like she was the one going for the event.I met with Lanie at the food court in Schreps Mall, where her brother worked, the mall that had been attacked a month ago, the place already looking brand new from the damage dealt on it by the bots."Hey", I said, popping in front of her, obviously startling her, from her shocked sea green eyes."You scared me", Lanie responded, as I sat opposite her, noticing her hair."You wore your hair down today", I said, my eyes round with excitement."This is not the first time", Lanie scoffed."It's the first time I'm seeing you with your hair down, without it being up first"."Whatever", Lanie bit back, rolling

Shaking tremendously, Andrew skittered back into the hall, the stench of his fear painting the atmosphere as Vanir faced me, the name 'Jacob' echoing in my head as Andrew's fear became my own."Vanir?", I let out, as he walked slowly to me, his eyes menacing and haunting, his gait relaxed, "Why did he call you Jacob?", I asked, stuttering as I backed up against the balcony railing, "I probably didn't hear him correctly", I said again, shaking my head as the temperature dropped around me."Vanirrr", I cried out again, as his chocolate scent warped around me, my eyes widening in dread as I locked on to his clouded eyes, his lips curling in a snarl as he reached me, caging me in between himself and the railing. "What are you doinngg?", I stuttered as I glimpsed his fangs elongate. "Vanir, please don't do this", I begged as his fangs came down on my carotid artery and I screamed, the pointed organ stopping just shy of my neck as I felt his exhale of breath."Alec would take you to my of

I walked into the parking lot of Laurent's Inc. feeling Vanir's body solidly behind mine as he led me to his car, his hand on the small of my back."I don't have anything to wear", I said as he slipped into the driver's seat, strapping on the seatbelt."That's not a problem", Vanir responded, smiling like a Cheshire cat as he drove out of the lot into the main road, smoothly fitting into a lane as the streetlights came on, chasing away the darkness"What do you mean by that's not a problem. You don't actually expect me to go to a club in office clothes", I asked, my eyes going to him in incongruity."Now I won't do that. I need something to look forward to", Vanir laughed and pulled up in front of one of the renowned fashion houses in Moon City."Howw?", I stuttered, staring in awe at the golden signage glittering from the night glow that read La Rafeyette. "How are we here?""We drove here, darling", Vanir retorted, escorting me to the front door as I glared at him."You know what I

Vanir was Jacob St. Laurent, Vanir was the King of Vampires.That was the mantra that I repeated in my head as I made my way to work the next morning, the events of last night still replaying in my mind.Vanir had quickly made work of the newly mades that had come to cause a disruption in one of the human-vampire establishments, the gang of uncultured rebels routing when they saw their King of Vampires had intervened during their raid and then Vanir had drove me home in complete silence, not even bothering to explain or attend to the numerous questions that were raging a protest in my head and I hadn't bothered to let out the sea of questions either. All the signs, how he knew so much, the fear from people wherever we went, the waiter, the boutique woman. How did I miss that? I hurried into my office, finding Claude's desk empty as I sat and powered on my computer, going straight to G****e search, typing out the name, Jacob St. Laurent with shaky fingers and came up with nothing. Wh

I spent the night at Lanie's after the police came and advised me to spend the night or probably a few days at a friend's place, assuring me that they'll be keeping tabs on the place in case the intruder comes back. I had told them everything I could about Siti, hoping at least they could find home with the little information I had relayed.Luckily my room hadn't been touched, so I had gotten a few clothes and had hightailed it down to Lanie's house. My father hadn't bothered to call to check on me. I walked into the Laurent's Inc. the next day, with a terrorizing headache and wishing I could be anywhere else in the world. Wishful thinking.I pressed the elevator button, about to step in when I heard my name, thinking I was hearing things. I shook my head and entered the elevator, watching the door close when a hand slid through and halted its closure."Miss Paul"It was the receptionist, Tonia."Oh sorry", I exclaimed and pressed the cancel button, stepping out to meet her. "I did

Feeling his eyes on me, I glanced at him, my brows quirking in confusion, "What am I doing here?""It seems you prefer my company", Jacob responded, his eyes fixing on me in a predatory gaze."What?", I reiterated, sitting up on the bed. The bed? How did I get on a bed? Where am I?"You passed out in your home", Jacob answered plainly"Then how am I here?", I prodded, my confusion turning to anger as everything came back to me.Jacob leaned back in his chair, his black hair gleaming in the bedroom light as his eyes glinted with knowledge, "I happened to be around at the time".Happened to be around? What in the world was this man saying, "You happened to be around my house at the time I passed out?""Yes. I believe that's what I said", Jacob answered, impassively."You order me to stay away from you and forget everything I know about you. Yet you happened to be around my house?" I ranted, my eyes widening with fury. "You know what, fuck you", I said and stood, wanting to leave, as hi

I looked Jacob in the eyes, my temper livid and still rising, "She", I began haughtily, "would like to know too".Jacob simply stared at me, taking his seat behind the desk, the evening sky spread out behind him.Claude sat too, his brows turned in, in contemplation"What are you thinking?"Jacob asked, facing him and forgetting I was there again, or that I had even spoken too. I schooled my features and focused on Claude, who was talking as his words registered in my brain."I'm thinking of the whole fiasco that happened downstairs", Claude complied, his right hand going to his face, "Two parties were obviously involved. The humans and the vampires""Involved?", I voiced out in a question, not understanding his logic or what he was trying to prove."Yes, involved", Jacob answered for me, his velvet voice caressing me as I faced him once again, "The two parties planned to attack, they just didn't know that it was going to turn into a face off""Oh", I exclaimed, "But Claude hasn't f

The fire roared and crackled burning down everything in it's wake. I coughed, putting my hand to my nose as I banged on the door, screaming for help, my voice going hoarse from the smoke. I banged loudly, rattling the door, as everywhere grew hot and hazy"Help", I screamed, tears beginning to slip out from my eyes in realization that no one was coming for me, the fire had surrounded me, crackling and hissing and the smoke detector had gone off. I slid down to the ground trying to breathe in proper as the smoke choked and crowded my lungs. Of all days to forget my phone, I chided myself, my vision becoming grainy as the temperature in the room sweltered and I succumbed to the darkness.Beep beep beepThe beeping sounds registered in my mind, catapulting me awake as I opened my eyes groggily as my eyes took in the white walls.The equipment covering my nose and mouth pushing air into my nose even though I could breath by myself. What happened?, I thought, Why am I in the hospital?

King of Vampires   The END
Epilogue.I sensed her before she came into the bedroom, the door opened and her eyes focused on me like I was her next meal and she intended to ravish me. My sex grew hard from the look in her eyes and the fact that she was finally mine all mine.She closed the door softly behind her and walked like a cat to the feet of my bed. I laid there watching her with heated eyes following every movement the I realized I would give my heart for this woman. She had healed quite nicely in two weeks. The scar on her heart had almost faded and she was glowing. Thanks to the vampire blood running in her veins. Dalia tugged on her robe and dropped it to the ground and my mouth watered. She was wearing nothing underneath. The glorious swell of her breast rose with each of her rapid breaths. “What’s the matter?”, I teased and brought out my hard as a dumbbell cock. My tip was already glistened with prec*m from anticipation. “You can’t stop now”.Dalia’s eyes heated and I think she darted out her

Sacha’s povThey were gone. Like their physical bodies were still intact but they were so still like they had moved to another dimension and left their bodies. I would never fully understand the ways of those folks and I wouldn’t start now because they were pressing issues to be attended to. My best friend was lying lifeless on the floor with a dagger protruding from her chest. I refused to believe she was dead. Dalia couldn’t be dead. No one was appearing out of the shadows. Kane’s mum and what I guessed to be the other chick’s mum laid side by side each other. Dead, unmoving, no more coming back to this world. I didn’t even know what to do. I wanted to run to Dalia’s side but I was so scared that someone was going to come out of the shadows and slice my neck next.I looked at Kane and he didn’t even seem like he was aware of his surroundings. The other girl who I think was Lanie had been mumbling something ever since her mum had been offed and she was still mumbling the same
King of Vampires   The beginning of an end
I stared wide eyed at the figure that loomed over with a dagger in her hand. Her dark hair was flowing down her face and her lips were blood red like she had just finished a blood feast. Her eyes were empty big black balls and I felt the cold she was emanating all the way up to my veins. She wanted me to kill Jacob.She wanted me to kill Jacob to live.I screamed but I couldn’t scream out because of the cloth tied against my mouth.“Go on. Take it”, She nudged the dagger towards me. I started down at the dagger and wondered if this was the infamous blade made from the things Jacob told me a while ago.“Your time is ticking”, the evil woman said and the blade clattered to the floor and out of nowhere a clock started ticking loudly. Like a countdown to a huge bomb.Instead this time, I didn’t know how long I had or what was going to happen to me if I refused to do what she said.My eyes went to Jacob whose face was cleared from every emotion. He wasn’t even looking at me but I unders

This had to end. The damage was already enough, the casualties, the people being locked up in their houses from the fear of what was going. From the panel board, I could see Leon and his team had already arrived at the garden center to help rescue the injured. What exactly did Adriana want? For Jacob to concede the city to her?“She knows St. Laurent is in the city council building”, the vampire that had been put in charge of babysitting me alongside Sydney spoke up.My eyes widened. Jacob was at the city building? He was at the very place 200 bots surrounded at the moment?“What?”, I croaked out. “Why?” “I thought he evacuated along with everyone”“Indirectly this is a fight for his city. You didn’t expect him to cower and hide at the face of his mother”, Sydney retorted, throwing her hair back as she watched the screen with searching eyes. I hadn’t even known when she had appeared.“But he can’t seriously think of facing her alone. See the army she has amassed. This doesn’t even

I ran without looking back, the guards overlooking the place were probably slacking or the cloak I was wearing possessed some kind of ethereal power. The woman had ordered me to close the door behind me and not look back, saying everything was written out in the letter.Hoping the letter was in the envelope, I held it tightly to my chest as I sneaked out from a heavy iron backdoor that was already open.I had a feeling it was the woman’s doing.I walked for a mile or two, seeing nothing but grass all aroundWhere the fuck was I?Now was the time to try that little trick I had been taught once upon a time.I closed my eyes, taking in a deep breath in turn as I imagined my room in Jacob’s historical mansion. The blood red curtains appeared in my mind, or were they lavender colored?The fuck? This wasn’t going to work.I imagined the strategy room where we had stayed the last time to plan, the long table and the oak wood chairs. The wind whooshed through my ears and suddenly five sets o

Jacob's POVGreen eyes stared at me, his eyebrows quirked up in askance but I hadn't been paying attention.My mind was far away from here, my lungs felt tight with every passing minute. Questions swarm through my head, as I stared into space. What was happening to her at the moment? I knew she couldn't be dead because the bond still felt strong but the worry gnawed at me from within."Boss", Sydney voiced and my eyes snapped to hers. "We are awaiting your instructions".My head went blank for a second as I tried to rehash what Leon had said from where he seated opposite.Seeming to know I hadn't heard him, Leon repeated, his green eyes focused and mean, "Words on the street says a number of trucks had been seen moving into the city".I nodded, finally understanding. My birthgiver hadn't been building her soldiers in my city, she'd been transporting them in, right under my nose.I had given her that power.I had given her the power to bring me to my knees and she knew it. My lungs
King of Vampires   Takeover II
InterludeHi, my loves. Merry Christmas. Happy new year. Happy new months… I suck…I know. I terribly suck for leaving you all hanging.Well, the past months have been my absolute worst. I've been through things and came out even when I thought I couldn't.Enough of the sob story…blahhThe good news is I'm back…And so is Jacob and Dalia. And…..drumroll please…. Leon and Sacha.Takeover III came to, my head pounding like a mega steel drum.Fuck, this kidnapping shit never gets old, does it?I blink, the lights like sears piercing through my corneas. My eyes adjusted quickly and I found out my hands were tightly cinched behind me.I looked around nervously, my heart rate tripling and sweat rolling like a snail down my back. The memories came back and I tried to swallow my fear. Michael, Adriana, there were a lot of people with me on their shit list, even though I had done absolutely nothing to deserve being on there.A noise sounded outside the small room and I closed my eyes immedi

No, I shook my head rapidly, my eyes still wide with shock. It wasn't possible.Michael smiled and walked into the house, his eyes scanning the place.Sacha, the thought flickered in my head. Sacha was in the kitchen. He was going to see her if she stepped out."How've you been, darling. Did you miss me?" Michael asked, tilting his head a bit as his cold and callous eyes met with mineHow had I never noticed this before?How had I not noticed the cold and calculating nature behind his eyes?"What do you want?", I managed to ask even as my head was going haywire with what to do. "A lot of things, sweet cheeks", He answered and Sacha chose that horrible moment to step out. Her eyes were wide and there was a butcher knife in her clenched fists."Get out", she seethed and the tension in the air grew more rigid.No, I screamed in my head. Michael was dangerous, surely she was bluffing about confronting him with a butcher knife.I stepped in front of her as Michael's smile grew and his fan
King of Vampires   I got anxiety
I kissed him like my life depended on it... because maybe it did.Jacob hefted me up and my body folded around his, my legs wrapped around his waist and my body melted into him.This was what I had always wanted."We can't do this here", Jacob mumbled at me but kept on nibbling on my mouth.I pulled away, feeling elated as I searched his eyes."You can drop me now", I murmured, looking anywhere but at his mouth."You feel so comfortable right here", He smiled and my heart melted."Sydney and Claude will be back any moment and we still have the Dick situation", I said level headedly Jacob sighed and placed me carefully on my feet. "Come home with me"."No", I stated immediately and watched his head tilt in confusion."No?"I nodded, trying to hide my smile. I took a step back to at least find a breathing space from his magnetic presence."What do you mean, no?""You hurt me more than a couple of times", I answered matter of factly. "Don't you think I'd be stupid if I don't let you wor
