Special Chapter: Kayden's POVAs I bolted away quickly, I didn't have the chance to speak to Evelyn or even look back because the Vampires were seriously hot on my trail.I ran for all I was worth but they wouldn't stop chasing, I instantly remembered Voithós's advice and tried to look for a place to hide but I found none. This is seriously one of the times that I really appreciate Neko, my wolf and desperately wish that I could transform so I would be able to easily escape these blood sucking bastards.I put in more effort and nearly grew out of breath but despite the extra effort, I was too slow for them. They were right behind me and could have easily caught me if they reached out but surprisingly, they didn't and it left me wondering if they were just chasing me around for fun.It began to seem as if I was their little pastime and they were just letting me run around until I was tired so they'd catch me and taunt me, just like a little mouse.The realization made me so angry that
Kayden's POV"Oh shit!" She cursed. "Now you see what you've caused? We wouldn't be in this mess if only you'd listened to me instead of behaving like a dunce." She said with ragged breath as she brought out twin swords that glittered in the moonlight."Oh my, so the little girl isn't that little. You should know that it's not safe to play with knives, you could get hurt." The second Vampire said and his tone disgusted me to no end."How dare you speak to me that way, you'll pay for this. We've had enough of your reign of terror." The girl said and lunged towards them with the swords but they were too quick, even for her. They easily dodged her attacks but surprisingly didn't retaliate.She continued attacking albeit unsuccessfully while they just dodged it and laughed at her while she panted like who'd just ran a marathon. They both looked like they were having fun. She was like the prey and they were the predators that were playing with and teasing, giving her a little hope for esca
After what felt like an eternity, we finally reached the palace and my mouth fell open at the sight of it. It's the biggest palace I'd ever seen and though the exterior wasn't particularly captivating due to the grim appearance, I felt drawn to it. It's good to see that Vampires stay true to their dark nature and this darkness despite horrifying has a certain allure that draws you in completely. I instantly shake my head, mentally kicking myself for having such thoughts and as I do this, one of the vampires walking behind me smirks and I look down in embarrassment, envisioning the possibility of him having read my thoughts.How am I going to deal with this?"Come along now." The mean Vampire who was still tugging at my shackles drawled and pulled at the chain, making the hard metal rub harshly against my already red, swollen and irritated skin and I winced, nearly falling over."You don't have to be so hard on her." Carter said but didn't look back and I couldn't stop myself from smi
Special Chapter: Cassius's POVI kissed and licked her neck before sucking on it slowly, letting my fangs lightly brush the surface of her skin while she writhed in my grip like an eel. I gave special attention to the side of her neck, just above her jaw preparing it for my plunder.I licked and sucked on her delicate skin, preparing it for the invasion of my fangs. I especially loved to drink from this spot because it housed the internal jugular vein which brought fresh, sweet blood from the brain.Drinking from this particular spot was risky, if I became too fixated in my own pleasure, I could easily kill her by obstructing the blood flow through the internal jugular vein which would cause a backflow of blood into the brain, increasing intracranial pressure which summarily leads to brain damage and death within a few minutes but the thought of putting her life in danger by drinking from this spot while she moaned in pleasure, oblivious of my intentions brought me a certain type of e
Special Chapter: Cassius’s POVI move my hand over her skin and she stiffens. “Your majesty.” She whined but I definitely wasn't going to listen to her. I directed my attention to her neck once more and began kissing and sucking on it while she moaned and writhed in my grasp. This was the only type of pleasure I would give her before my assault. Within a second, I plunged hard and deep into her hole, burying myself as far as I could go. I groaned at the pressure of her vaginal walls gripping hard on my cock. She screamed and I couldn’t tell if it was from pleasure or pain. I’m huge so a lot of women are barely able to take me in fully the first time. I took a look and saw that she had only been able to take in half of my cock. I looked at her face and it was contorted in pain and I couldn’t help but wonder why she was reacting this way. I’m almost sure that she’s been with men before so my best guess is that she’s never been so stretched before.Her walls continued to spasm on my cock
Special Chapter: Kayden's POVI stilled, and I felt her tense up as well as the person slowly came out of the shadows and into the light of the moon.I heard the woman release a sigh of relief and that made my heart rate calm down just a tad bit. It seems this person might not hurt us."Gath, thank goodness it's you. You gave us such a fright." She said with a smile and he scratched the back of his neck sheepishly. "Sorry, captain." He apologized."What happened to you? How did you get hurt? And who's he?" He questioned spasmodically."One question at a time please." She blurted with an annoyed look. "I'm sorry." He apologized once more. "We were attacked by the Vampires you were supposed to mislead. You did a great job by leading them away from him but I think they caught on quickly because they came back and I had to kill them. We both got hurt when I tried to eliminate them but thankfully, it's not more than this. As for introductions, we can do that later in the hideout. We have t
Kayden's POVI almost couldn’t believe it. It seems providence had finally smiled on me because who I was searching for was right in front of me the whole time. She had come to me, to save me. Now that I think about it, it makes absolute sense. Lucia, the Vampire King's mate, was said to be a vampire hunter by Voithós and this woman is certainly a vampire hunter. I almost can’t believe that the one I’m looking for is right in front of me.“You’re Lucia Fitzherbert?” I questioned, just to be sure. “ Yes, you sound a little shocked. Do you know me by any chance?” She questioned with a suspicious gaze and I instantly had the urge to facepalm myself. I should really be careful with the things I say while I’m here.“No, no. I’m sure we’ve never met before. It’s just that your name sounds very special. I really like it.” I quickly said, hoping that she would believe me and I heaved a sigh when she laughed. This is the first time I’ve heard her laugh out loud and to be honest, she has a beau
My eyes fluttered open casually but the bright light from the window was so blinding that I had to shut them right back. I opened my eyes once more and blinked a few times before my eyes finally adjusted to the light. I tried to sit up but my head hurt like crazy and my hand came to my temple spontaneously, rubbing it soothingly. I waited a few minutes before attempting to sit up again so I could at least get a whiff of my surroundings. I looked around and found that I was in a huge, beautiful room and this left me completely puzzled. I tried to remember why I was here but no matter how hard I tried, my brain remained blank. Just then, the door barged open and a mean looking man came in. The glare he sent my way not only gave me shivers but also gave my memory the jolt it needed.“Welcome back to the world of the living princess, do you need anything else?” Jared questioned and the sarcasm in his voice was as sharp as a knife’s edge. “Get the fuck up before I make you stand up!” He ye
I began shaking before I knew it, fresh tears gathering at the edge of my eyes."You don't have to worry, it's not too deep. I just have to take you to the Pack house quickly so you can be safe before I deal with this bastard. I won't show him mercy this time for making an attempt on the love of my life." Zephyr assured me and took me in a hug, patting my back soothingly.We detached from the hug and looked to where Ruben was formerly laying, he was nowhere to be found and I could feel my adrenaline rush. "Evelyn!" Zephyr called suddenly, making my heart nearly leap out of my chest. Before I have time to wonder what might be going on, he grabs a hold of my wrist and crashes my body against his in a hug, instantly turning us around and switching our position and barely a few seconds later, I hear a sick sound of metal digging into flesh. I immediately feel nauseous as the vomit quickly rushes up my throat but I manage to hold it back.Still in his tight embrace, I take a look and see
After returning to my room, only then did I realize how harsh I had been to Zephyr. I had never acted like that towards anyone before but I was so filled with anger and the memories of my past suffering that I went overboard just a little bit. I felt a little guilty but I decided that I wouldn't apologize to him. He deserved everything he got.When I returned to my room, Nevaeh was fast asleep once more and I thanked my mum for her efforts but she asked me about what happened between Zephyr and I and I told her I was feeling too tired to talk. I would be willing to discuss it the next day because I'm tired and a pregnant woman really needs her sleep.She left and I took a bath before going to bed.I woke up early the next day and prepared for the meeting while I left Nevaeh with my mother since Linda was apparently too careless. I wouldn't have to go through any of this if the girl would just do her job right. I only took her with me because she's Emily's cousin.I made my way to the
Special Chapter: Zephyr's POVEvelyn released a sarcastic laugh before continuing."When did you reject her? You rejected her when you rejected and banished me four years ago because I was probably already pregnant with her but you heartlessly separated me from the only family I had ever known and forced me into the wilderness.My daughter and I would have died if a kind woman hadn't found me, freezing to death in a heavy storm. She took me in and provided me with everything that your petty revenge had stolen away from me, love, care and family. She gave me even more than I had lost and I'll always be grateful to her.When I found out I was pregnant with your child, I was disgusted because I was reminded of how she had been conceived. Your brutality almost made me kill one of the most beautiful things in my life but I managed to stop myself in the nick of time.I didn't want my daughter to be born to a man like you, or have to refer to someone like you as father but the people around
Special Chapter: Zephyr's POV"How old are you?" I asked her once more. "I'm three years old." She answered and everything was quickly starting to come together. I'm almost sure that Evelyn is her mother but then again, it might just be a coincidence, especially since I've not seen the both of them together. I can't just go around hurling accusations without any evidence, especially since Evelyn is currently a guest here. I have to find out the truth no matter what."Now will you help me find my mummy, Mr?" Nevaeh asked, bringing me back to the present."Of course but I need to find out something first. What is your mother's name?" I asked and she said nothing at first, almost as if she was contemplating whether to tell me or not. She finally answered shortly."I'm sorry but I can't tell you. You're a stranger and my mummy says not to tell her name to strangers." Nevaeh said and her words hit me straight in the heart. My own daughter thinks I'm a stranger and I can't do anything about
Special Chapter: Author's POVLinda sat and watched Nevaeh as she slept but the young girl soon grew bored and decided to take a short snack break.She checked and made sure that Nevaeh seemed comfortable before quietly leaving the room.Shortly after, the sleeping child turned around on her side, as she attempted to fully go back to sleep, lightning flashed and thunder struck, instantly waking her up with a scare. Nevaeh quickly sat up and looked around, frightened, her vision was a bit blurry due to sleep but she was still aware of her surroundings.She scratched at her eyes a bit and looked around but she found no one. She called out to her mum and Linda but she got no reply and she became very scared.At the sound of another thunderbolt, Nevaeh practically jumped from the bed and began crying. She walked around the room and even went to the bathroom but she still couldn't find anyone. She kept calling out to her mother but all she could hear was the sound of her own voice and the
I sighed as Linda helped me get ready. I really don't want to go to this party, I don't know why but I have a pretty bad feeling about it. I won't let myself be fooled by him, I'm pretty sure that Zephyr has a motive behind this party but I can't seem to figure out what it is.Even though I don't want to, I have no choice but to go and besides, I want to know what Zephyr has planned for me.She finishes putting my hair in a tight bun and places a tiara on my head."Take it off." I order instantly and she seems stunned for a moment."But why your highness? It suits you perfectly, delicately complimenting your beauty and besides, you're a Princess." She said with a smile and I wanted to play into her innocent mindset but I couldn't. She's ignorant and naive, she has no idea about my past and she certainly doesn't know how much I want to avoid Zephyr and hide the truth of my current life from him."You don't have the right to question me Linda, I said take it off now." I replied harshly
Lydia turned out to be a very cute and chubby baby, she was just so cuddly that I felt like holding her in my arms forever, she also was a very quiet child which made being with her all the more enjoyable. I introduced Nevaeh to her and my smartass daughter wanted to carry her baby cousin so I sat Nevie down and placed Lydia in her arms. Nevaeh squealed when Lydia touched her nose with her small hand and we all laughed because it was the cutest thing ever. I really wish things could keep being like this, just me and my family having the time of our lives with no more problems. That would be the best gift ever.Just then, we heard a knock on the door and my mum went to answer. She had a short and low conversation with whoever was at the door before returning to us with a worried face."The Alpha just called your father and I and I don't necessarily have a good feeling about it." My mother revealed.Since it's the Alpha calling, they have no choice but to go. "You both should go, if he
"Your daughter? But how is that even possible?" My mother questioned and then I realized that no one else knew what had happened between me and Zephyr the night before he banished me.They only knew about my banishment, they didn't know that he had sexually assaulted me and I would have to be reminded of that terrible experience. I would just have to tell them but I couldn't do it in front of Nevaeh, I would just have to take her somewhere else.As if on cue, I heard a knock on my door and it opened shortly after to show Linda. I smiled at her arrival, happy that she would be able to take care of Nevaeh while I told my parents everything."I'm so sorry your highness, I didn't mean to barge in like this but you said to come to your room shortly after we got settled in. Am I interrupting your discussion? I'll leave right now." She said but I stopped her."Wait! I didn't say you could leave, did I?" I questioned and she instantly apologized."I'm so sorry your highness, I just thought th
Everything suddenly became blurry, a sudden cold rushed over me and my heart stopped for a split second. I stood there frozen, trying to figure what I was supposed to be feeling, the numbness was almost impenetrable."Evelyn." My father called but I could barely hear him, I couldn't tell what was going on, I had suddenly lost touch with everything."Evelyn." My mother called and shook me vigorously and when she did, the words finally hit me again, breaking through my emotional barriers."Noooooooo….." I whimpered, the tears pouring down my cheeks. "How could that be? No, you're lying to me. Moira is a strong girl, she wouldn't just die. It's OK if she doesn't want to see me right now, I'll wait until she's ready." I tried to lie to myself but it just wasn't working. The words were continuously ringing in my head and my heart was aching.I know that Moira and I had never really gotten along much but she's still my little sister. I carried her in my arms after she was born and I love he
