The Meal
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Her blood? Trisha couldn't shake those two words out of her head no matter how hard she tried. How much blood would be involved in this cooking contest of theirs? But no, it didn't matter.
She had to save Nakuni. She couldn't let them just kill him.
Westworth led her away from the twins that watched Trisha's every gesture with a glazed look. They licked their lips as their eyes dipped to her throat or to the veins on her wrist. Trisha was grateful the old woman was so strict. She could really only imagine what she would have done otherwise.
"He's in here." The woman turned on the lights in a small room and the area was flooded with a yellow glow.
Nakuni was in the center of the floor in a fetal position. Crusted blood covered his face and his hands. His clothing had been torn to shreds. "Nakuni?" Trisha whispered.
The man turned slowly. Taking his time as if moving too quickly would erase the dream he was in. His eyes met hers and he smiled. "Mistr

Westworth pointed to a seat near her. "Sit, you'll be right at my side while we eat. You know the price of failure."Nakuni smiled at the group. "I know there will be zero complaints from this meal. I've brought you a pork stew flavored with our special ingredient." He paused. "It needs no introduction." He set the giant pot in the center of the table and the twins shifted into their seats, leaning closer to it.Nakuni dealt out a set of bowls and ladled the soup into the three containers. He set each done in front of the vampires and gave Trisha a wink.At least someone was confident that this gamble would go okay. She couldn't be so sure. Shouldn't Nakuni have taken more blood? What if it wasn't enough?Westworth glared at the two at the table and they set their bowls down. Both had been about to swallow the contents. "Manners," she snapped before she turned her attention to Nakuni. "Feline, I will say that your meal does look good, but if it will be go

"My wedding?" Trisha replied. She stayed in Nakuni's arms as she just stared up at the group. This had to be a hallucination."Yes," Westworth nodded toward Logan. "This wolf has bought you in a sense. In return, I'll let you go because you'll no longer be of any use to me." She tilted her head as she stared down. "However, I'm still keeping the chef. He will do wonders for making sure Ryzard's wedding goes off without a hitch."Trisha found herself clutching Nakuni's hands that were wrapped around her middle. She didn't even want to think about leaving him here with these monsters even if she could escape. "But if I'm not here why would you need him? You couldn't make any more blood dishes without me-"Westworth's eyes flashed. "I have plenty of willing donors, Pet. Don't mistake this as a sign of affection. I just am aware of how difficult it will be to keep you alive when it comes to the twins. Especially now that they've consumed your blood, and you'd

As Trisha noticed Lauren strut into the room, she could practically feel the hate that oozed off of the woman.Lauren did not like her.No, that was a vast understatement.Lauren despised her.Lauren wanted nothing more than to remove Trisha's head from her body if the cold eyes focused on her meant anything.Trisha shivered."Trisha," Lauren growled. "Congratulations on your getting to join the pack."Her sharp eyes slid to the vampires. "I'm here now, let's get ready. Logan, get beside her, now," each order was a bark, a snap.Trisha knew she'd be paying for this for the rest of her life if Lauren had any say about it. But Trisha couldn't blame the woman.She'd not only wrecked Logan's career, this marriage was a seal of death for it, but she' also managed to get land taken away from them and given to an enemy.Logan took her hands in his. The warmth radiated off of him and Trisha sighed softly. "Hey

There was a different sense to the air as they entered the mansion this time. A stifling silence that hung over the group.Lauren broke it first. "I'm going to keep up a perimeter on our grounds. I don't trust those bloodsuckers. I wouldn't doubt if they try to attack us now that our guard is done."Logan scoffed. "I doubt that not with the size of land I gave them."Lauren's gaze narrowed on him. "And we're going to talk about that again, later, in length." She glanced at Trisha and sighed. "As for now, you're under my protection as is that pathetic brat of a wolf. I won't let those beasts get near you guys."Trisha watched her go and the stifling situation grew worse. Kanda was leaning against the wall watching the two of them. "I hope you don't expect me to just take off and leave like that.""I was hoping you would," Logan agreed. "I wanted to spend some time with my wife." It was meant to be a serious statement but at the last words, Logan gri

Logan didn't hesitate and his fancy buttons went flying as he ripped it off his body. He tossed it off to the side with a mound of clothes and winced. "I swear I'm going to clean that."Trisha smirked. "I'm going to hold you to that. Don't think you're getting out of cleaning duties just because you've got a wife now."Logan turned completely red. "I didn't mean that I wasn't going to make you-"Trisha silenced him with her fingers pressed against his lips. "I was teasing you. I won't mind helping you with some things, it's not like I'm the one working right now."She winced. "If I ever get to work again at this rate, with all that stuff spread about me supposedly betraying my company I won't be able to get a job."Logan rolled his eyes at her. "You don't have to worry about getting a job unless you want to, I can take care of us. " His pants slid off easily, but he paused at his black silk boxers. "This isn't a dream, right?" he asked.Tris
My Pretend Marriage to the Vampire Billionaire The Husband
One of Logan's hands continued to knead and tweak her nipple, and the other dipped lower, skimming the curve of her back and then gripping her hip. His kiss got just as aggressive as hers and he pulled their bodies together so his wet cock rubbed at her entrance.Trisha tensed. As great as this kiss was, she still couldn't help but be just a little worried about his size. "Be gentle," she gasped as he leaned down and took his nipple in her mouth.Logan ground the point lightly between his teeth, just enough for friction but not enough for pain. "Anything you want."Trisha closed her eyes as her head fell back. The pillow smelled like Logan a strong woodsy scent that surrounded her. Her moans were soft as he sucked more of her breast into his mouth."Don't hold back," Logan scolded as he pulled away and kissed the spot in-between her breast. "If you want to moan, moan. I don't give a damn who hears us."Trisha bit her lip. She wanted to
My Pretend Marriage to the Vampire Billionaire The Set-Up
Trisha woke up well before Logan. He had an arm over his eyes to block out the light and the other around her pulling her close to his body.No wonder she had dreamed she was in a sauna. Trisha wiggled out of his tight grasp and leaned forward to kiss his forehead. He groaned softly and smiled at the touch, but didn't wake up."I should have known you'd be difficult," she scolded him.She slipped out of bed and grabbed some of Logan's own clothes since hers were not in any shape to be worn. She'd get new later it was something that had to be done in any case.Once dressed and no longer smelling like werewolf sex, she wandered through the mansion. She wanted to find Kanda and speak to him, but instead she stumbled onto Lauren in the kitchen.The other woman was holding a mug to her chest and eyed her. "I take it last night went well."Trisha's cheeks were on fire but she couldn't deny it. The others here weren't dumb. "For the mos
My Pretend Marriage to the Vampire Billionaire The Plan
"I know you said this would work, but I still need to say I'm against this," Lauren said with a heavy sigh."Against it or not, it's my wife's plan so I plan to follow it," Logan shrugged. "Hey, even if it doesn't work we can always just run back to the pack and just live the rest of our life there. I'm sure you'd love that, wouldn't you?"The look she gave him could have melted steel. "Are you being serious right now?"He smirked. "Just have more faith in her."Kanda grinned. "It's a solid plan. It all really hinges on how desperate they are. If they don't believe us, this could go south pretty quick, but hey, I'm here. I'll keep you safe."Kanda had been the biggest supporter of her plan, but she figured that was because he had such a huge part in it. "Do you have your speech ready?""Ready and waiting," he replied. "I just distract them long enough and you come in with the killing stroke.""Or they decide that they're just go

Trisha's fingers flew over the keyboard as she nibbled on her lip. She paused to take a sip of her water before getting back to work. A step behind her made her freeze and glance over her shoulder. Ryan smiled down at her. "What's up?" she asked."You've been working hard here. We haven't seen you in a while."Trisha chuckled. "You know how Rachel is. I need to finish this coding for her before I can come downstairs. It's the least I can do for everything she's done for us."Ryan wriggled the fingers on his robotic arm in perfect mimicry as if he'd never had his arm ripped off, to begin with. "True, but you still deserve a break."Trisha rolled her neck from side to side. "I think you're right. Is Nakuni finished with lunch?"Ryan nodded. "Part of the reason I came to get you. I wanted to escort you down." He smiled. "Any chance to get to spend some time with you."Trisha's smile widened. "Which is why I'm working so hard. We almost have it

Trisha was stripped bare to Nakuni's ravenous gaze. There was no turning back now, and even if Vanku, or hell, if any of the others walked in, Trisha wouldn't stop. Not until she fucked him.The shifter stripped himself faster than he'd even done to her. Trisha's eyes were glued to his massive dick that bobbed as if acknowledging her gaze and she licked her lips."You're not getting a taste of that, not yet," Nakuni whispered. "I'm too far gone for foreplay, all I want to do is bury myself inside you. I want to feel your walls flutter against and clench me," he growled.Trisha nodded. She wanted that too. "Wait," she whispered as she frowned."What?" he questioned a bit his edge fading away by concern. "Are you too tired?" he bit his lip hard. "It'll be hard but I can stop if I have to."Hard, ha. "No," she answered with a shake of her head. "But, protection?"Nakuni tilted his head to the side with a grunt. "No cubs yet?" he que

A thousand years. Trisha tried to wrap her mind around the words but no matter how she fit them together, they didn't make sense. "Why would you do that?""I repay my debts. I admit I was not aware of the Council's other doings. And why they were stupid enough to bring them here, I am not sure. My guess is it was those children of Westworth's. Those twins never did have brains. You eliminated a threat to the Assembly."The vials. Trisha sat up and her body didn't scream at her for doing so. Vanku moved back as she did so. Vanku's eyes focused on hers, a challenge in their depths.And the pieces fell into place."It wasn't them being stupid," Trisha whispered. "They were going to attack you guys, that's why they brought it here."Vanku smiled, this time her teeth were kept hidden. "Yes, good job, Trisha. I admit I didn't think your kind were capable of critical thought. It's likely they were taking advantage of the situation.""I'm not going
My Pretend Marriage to the Vampire Billionaire The Life
An ear-splitting roar forced Trisha's eyes open. A jaguar bounded down the stairs and following him was a bear, a lamia, wolves, demons, and things that Trisha couldn't even comprehend.She was dropped to the ground like a sack of garbage as the vampires turned to confront the swarm.Jace writhed this way and that, easily looping around Raphael's leg and squeezing it until the vampire was forced to stay still. Jace smirked. "I'm not your death today.""I am," Kanda promised and the demon launched himself at the vampire as Jace let him go. The two tumbled into the dirt on the ground and Trisha could only watch.Liliana laughed as Ryan teetered toward her. "Did you really think there were just two of us here?" she demanded and she snapped her fingers. From all sides, the vampires flowed in as if just waiting for the signal.The fighters were swarmed in seconds. Kanda rolled by Trisha with Raphael on top and Trisha reached out for him, but her a

Trisha didn't speak to anyone else until she was alone with Ryan. The pack had given him his own house as he recovered. As she entered, his eyes were on her."It was about what we expected, wasn't it?" he asked. What was left of his arm was in a sling and the stench of burned flesh lingered in the air."They're making you leave with the others," Trisha answered. "All of the Council has to leave, so after all this, you're just back at square one again."Ryan shrugged. "But you're safe, and you'll be safe. That's all I care about. I know that asking you to help me in the first place was selfish, and I ask for your forgiveness."Trisha didn't answer. His words had a tone of finality to them. A sense that she couldn't push aside. "They're going to kill you, aren't they?" she whispered the words.Would Liliana allow that? The crazy vampire was obsessed with him, there was no way she'd let him die, was there?"We shouldn't talk about t

"We have to talk."Trisha never liked hearing those words. Considering they came from Vanku, she liked them even less. Especially considering they were directed to her. "Are you sure?" she asked.The dragon nodded her scales clinking as she did so. "You will come with me now. There has been a severe accusation." Her eyes flickered over the group. "I can not deny there has been an attack.""I told you," Sofia piped from the side. "You can smell it too.""Yes, vampires did attack this group. I will talk to the main human, alone. The rest of you may go.""I'm not leaving her alone," Logan growled out. "Not with you."Vanku snorted and a plume of smoke trickled from her nose. "I am the Assembly leader. Are you seriously insinuating that I can not be trusted?""Not with a human," Nakuni answered from his place on Mark's back. "Your hatred for them is known.""Why wouldn't I despise the race that has driven mine to the br
My Pretend Marriage to the Vampire Billionaire The Impending Doom
Logan moved like a bullet train. Trisha sensed the world flickering around her as he raced but she couldn't pull herself out of her spiral.Was she about to lose Ryan? Lose him before she could even truly get to know him?No.Logan slowed down and her head shot up. She prepared herself to yell at her husband, but the words died like ash on her tongue.Jace was in front of them. The lamia grunted and flicked a hand in greeting. Blood streaked all over his body and his tail was wrapped around Ryan's arm. A giant puddle of blood pooled under the two."Is he?" Trisha whispered not able to force the words.Jace rolled his eyes. "No, but you guys got here too late for the battle. The cowards ran off." He smirked. "Those that survived anyway."Sofia snarled. "What? They attacked you and then left? I hate vampires," she shook her head with a snort and a roll of her eyes."What are you doing here?" Kanda demanded. He h

The rest of the meeting was a blur for Trisha.Did Vanku talk more?She couldn't be sure.The only thing that Trisha did know was that she would not let Ryan be taken from her. She hadn't been able to spend as much time with him as some of the others, but that was something she planned to remedy and him being somewhere overseas wasn't part of those plans.She'd do whatever it took to save him."Very well, human, you've said your piece, and I have said mine. I am leaving now to talk to the wolf pack leader. I expect you to be gone by the time I return. I will not tolerate humans being around me longer than I have to endure."Vanku's eyes slid past her and the dragon clicked once more as she walked away from the group. The other Assembly members besides Sofia filed after her and ascended the creaky steps."I'll take you guys back to your house," Sofia offered, soft so Vanku didn't pick up the conversation. "Besides, I wanted to ta
My Pretend Marriage to the Vampire Billionaire The Assembly's Ruling
"We find that the Council is not at fault for any of these transgressions. There is no proof besides what out demon swears they have found, but as we know they can't always be trusted. And so, I will rule in favor of the Council. You may leave, Madam Westworth, we will handle matters from here."What? How could any of this be possible? Trisha wanted to throw something at the smirking monarch of a woman. Why didn't they believe Sofia? And if she had more secret help, why hadn't they shown themselves? She knew better than to talk though."I believe I'll stay here and witness the punishment for these barbarians. It is my right." Westworth replied with a sly smile."No," Vanku responded with a click that confused Trisha. Had she made that sloshy snap sound with her mouth? How?"What?" Westworth demanded. "You're going against the rules. The Assembly does have to abide by them.""The rules only state that I would find if your words involving your organi
