Naomi's Pov

I was left to myself for the greater part of the day, hence I decided to find my way around the house. One of the limiting factors was the fact that I didn't have much time to be able to inspect the house. I just wanted to mark the bearing of the house so that I could run away one of these days.

Continuing down the long hall, I turned to the right where my instincts told me that it would be. It turned out that I was right. As I kept on moving toward the length of the hall, I turned again and discovered a long staircase.

One thing was baffling, silence stretched like a band over the house, casting its net upon it and almost suffocating me. What kind of life were they living here? Another shocking thing, the house was in darkness. Apart from the light coming from the window, the rest of the light was lit by an artificial supply.

These people were walking corpses. I didn't think that I could live all the day of my life without seeing the sun and being normal, but I guess th

    Lucian's POVI watched how she crept stealthily out of the house and all the drama she was putting up with my pets. They weren't tamed, they only listened to my instructions, and they knew every member of the house, especially Emma. It was a tactic for people to become relaxed and misbehave so that they get bitten.Those lions should have attacked her the very first time that she attempted to move, but I guess they were also as intrigued as I was by her. She tried to make it down that far. I guess it was adrenaline at work."She should be happy that she's not yet killed." Travis muttered beside me and quickly ended that nonsense because of my glare. "Sir, what do you think I should do concerning the people that came a few days ago?" "Kill them all if they return." "Okay, sir." He replied with a wicked grin and I rolled my eyes at him. "I will see to it." He promised. Travis was swift to violence and I wondered where he was raised because it was concerningEven I, who was the head of

    Naomi's PovA slap woke me up from my sleep and I stood, "Wake up!" The person said. The hand was gravelly and hard. It was almost as though they lifted weights every day. I came in contact with a man who hated my guts and existence. He was my greatest enemy, but I wasn't his fan either, so it was a balanced equation. You're not thinking about running away, are you? My master is not around, so I'll do whatever I like with you.I thought that he was talking about sex and what not, but he scrunched up his nose, Who wants to be with a public hole? I'll kill you myself and plant your body close to the lions for them to devour. That way, your special wish is granted. He grinned and I stared at him. He was very callous, and I wished that I had never had the misfortune to meet such a cruel and wicked soul."You're a bastard." I retorted and he shrugged. "You're not even ashamed that you're working for a killer. I guess you're birds of the same feathers."He grinned wickedly at me. "I'm pro

    Naomi's POVI turned to see the person who was speaking. It was a female in regalia standing at the doorway. Her voice was commanding, almost as though there was nothing that could move her, and it was impressive to see this P.A or whatever he's called fold. From her stance one could know that she was powerful and this made me really happy. There were a few people who could actually command things and they happened that way. It was good to see that a lot of people who seemed like they didn't have any control actually did, but they were just waiting for people who were stronger or better than them to arrive.I stared at him with a smirk, at least a fellow woman was able to get him to shut up, which was quite impressive."Get to the room now." He muttered before walking out in anger. Well, that was his business because all I wanted was to be able to rest from all my labors, but it seemed like that was going to be a problem here.Now, onto the next agenda. The lady didn't wait before sw

    Lucian's POVI was shocked and angry at her when she walked in scanty clothing. Women these days have become really shameless. Why would she be so comfortable in such an arena? "Why did she come here, Travis?" Travis shrugged. "Oh, she said you sent for her."I raised a brow at her lifeless body. Her drink was spiked just one minute after I turned my head. I wonder why she didn't leave immediately. What did she want to achieve? These strippers always wanted to have the attention of men. I guessed that it was like a drug to them because explain why certain things which were eyesores pleased them."The hell I did." Is that how desperate she was? I wondered. She shouldn't have thought that I hadn't been noticing her advances, but she was in for a ride if she thought that I was going to be one of her patrons.My friend chuckled when she walked in and saw my countenance. He even sent me a text with those human emojis. "You look bewildered. It's a good change from being tired," he had s

    Naomi's POVI rose abruptly when he glared at me and stared at me like he was about to cut my head off. I now saw what happened. My heart was racing. I guess he was having a problem with me coming into his office. The truth was that I wasn't even feeling any certain way because I just thought that it was the normal thing that was always happening."I'm sorry, I will just leave right now. I was thinking about..." I trailed off when I saw his stares. It was just like the way that I had imagined. This time around, I was the one at fault. To be fair, it wasn't my intention to snoop around, but as things are right now, I guess I had no choice than to apologize."I'm listening," he prodded, and I stared at him with semi-wide eyes. If it was even possible for me not to have the time nor the luxury that was attached to it, I would. The luxury that I spoke of was nothing but the one where I was able to walk about and finally go before him.I didn't know what was running through his mind, but I

She was a human that was bound to run dry after a few sucks.My goodness! If she died, the cycle continued and God knew that this was the purest blood that I ever had the privilege to drink in the past fifty years. It was just that the lady had a mouth on her that made me want to bend her into two. She knew how to make a man mad, but I was no ordinary man.My gums were assuaged. This should be enough till next week again. That would give her time to recuperate. I wanted to keep her till old age. I mean, till she died. No one was willing to become a donor and that was why I bought her. She would have all the luxury she needed instead of searching for it around. She was a whore, and they usually lived from paycheck to paycheck. That was if they were even lucky enough to have a good boss or if

    Naomi's POVHe glanced at me with shock and then looked at the knife with a tired gaze. "Why did you do that?" He asked. He was a vampire, and I was well aware stabbing him would not work."Just out of curiosity," I replied, but I was lying. I needed to know the intricacies that surrounded vampirism and I decided to find out and most especially. How to kill a vampire. I would kill him then escape. He was the one with the most power and that would disrupt his flow and continuity of the wicked bloodline. Did he have any siblings? I wondered, and a small smile slid across my lips.I was sure that he was probably wondering what the problem was because I was just staring at him like I was going to bite him. I was so glad that he didn't know what was about to hit him. I needed to continue playing the role of a very stupid person while I did my research. There was one person that would be of help to me. Emma. She seemed to have a soft spot for me, but the problem was that she also, to my di

    Naomi's POVI was taken aback by his name. That name sounded familiar. "Is that the name of your Master?""Our master, yes. That's his name. Why do you ask? Don't you know that already?" She inquired.We heard footsteps coming from the top of the long stairs and I looked up to see my beloved hater. I flashed him a grin. The fact that I wanted to lie low didn't mean that I would allow him to walk over me. He wasn't even the boss, yet he was acting like a Lord all over the house."See who missed me? I always knew that you had an unhealthy obsession with me, you didn't just know how to put your words without sounding a bit off, and I get you." I purposely said to grate on his nerves and he fell victim instantly. "Why the hell would I look at a whore twice or even miss her presence? You're nothing but food to us and I don't see you beyond that." He replied promptly with venom pouring out of his eyes, and I was feeling very annoyed by that.

" I decided that, and nothing or no one counters my word. " There's nothing you can do about it, Laura, you can't change a thing, like I said, but you are here to fetch me some handsome money”, I responded as I stared at her.“I beg you, she is scared, she doesn't want me to leave,” she said as she pleaded for mercy.“I think I made the mistake of making you see her the other nig

    Naomi PovLucian opened his eyes slowly as he stared around. He had another nightmare. This had been Constance ever since he got back that night. He had always seen Bruno whenever he slept in pain, crying out to me to help him, but every time he tried to help him, he just disappeared into the air. He sat up on the bed and stared around the room. It was morning again, but I could see how he couldn't stop thinking about all that had happened two days ago. It felt like it was real every time he thought about it.Travis knocked on the door as he walked into Lucian's room, where I stood close to him. He bowed his head as he greeted him before moving close to Lucian. “How are you feeling today master,” Travis asked with a smile on his lips.“I am very much better, thank Travis,” Lucian said, smiling at him. “I am glad you are getting better, sir,” he said with a smile on his face.“What about Marcus?” I asked, turning to him. “Marcus is good too, it's just that he is still a bit too we

She then handed the documents to me on stage.I smiled, looking at Madonna. She must have thought that she was part of the girls that wanted to be sold off tonight,However, I knew her too well. She was indirectly scanning the room for a potential customer that would go down with her after the auction this morning. I grabbed the documents and lifted them up, showing the entire people in the crowd how authentic my document was.They all cheered on as they began to clap their hands loudly, no jokes. They were enjoying it all.I returned my gaze to the buyers again as I smiled, “This document, you should go through it, and sign under the category that you have fallen under,” I said, smiling widely.One of my subjects collected it from me and handed it to the man who wanted to buy Laura and Naomi for thirty million dollars.As soon as he was given the document

    Lucian's PovAccording to what Naomi had told me, she had revealed that Travis had struggled to carry me on his back and as soon as he got to the bedroom, he dropped on the bed. Naomi also explained that she was in my room searching for some things when Travis dropped me on the bed. I knew she must have run quickly and held one so tight.It was exactly two hours since I was unconscious. I still laid on the bed without moving my body. Suddenly, I opened my eyes, and screamed out loud as I raised my head.I wasn’t in a coma, but I had still not slept like that for years, and it felt like as soon as my eyes opened, there was something that changed inside of me.My eyes darted around the room and began to pant out loudly. This was exactly when I literally saw the faces of the people that were around me. Most likely, I was able to recognize Travis and Naomi. “You should calm down Lucian,” Naomi said as she moved closer to me.Although I couldn't hear them well, it seemed like I was begin

    Naomi's PovI had literally witnessed this every second till the break of the day as I stared at the clock in my room not able to get some sleep through the night. I was worried and I couldn't hide it.I was worried that something bad might happen to Lucian. I was worried that I didn't know what more Lucian was hiding from me. I was worried that Lucian still hadn't healed, and it was obviously a sign of danger.Furthermore, I rolled from one end of the bed to the other part as I tried to sway away the thoughts and get some sleep, but it wasn't just working.Not only that, but I wish I had gone along with them. It had been several hours since they had left the house, but there was no sign of their return. I had walked closer to the glass window in my room several times when I heard the horn of a car around.I had also been calling them several times, but they were not answering their calls.

Although, I wasn't able to hear it clearly, However, I staggered and the next thing I saw was the man opening the door for Travis and me to get in.Well, I honestly should have been skeptical about the place, but I wasn't. It was just a relatable moment that someone knew there was nothing you could possibly do for yourself. At that point, anything was going to be accepted.As I walked into the room, I noticed that it wasn't just a room, it was something unexpected, just like the frontal view of the building looked ancient, but the inside of the house was a totally different thing.It was different. I couldn't describe it, but was confidently sure that it was different. I could still see even when my eyes seemed blurred at the moment. I also knew it was the effect of the poison that had caused me not to see well.I lifted my hands, as I tried to rest on some of the things around the room so that I would not fall off.I had

I muttered silently as I looked at the man.“Who did you say you want?” I asked as I took a step closer, trying to hear the name he was going to call out again. “I want Naomi Stevens,” he pleaded as he smiled. The people in the crowd stared at me as they wondered what they were trying to say. They had all expected me to go in and get Naomi Steven. I stepped closer, scrutinizing the man. Naomi Steven had been sold to Lucian's Vlod; it was impossible for her to appear here.Yet, my gaze lingered on Laura, standing on the stage, her heart racing. This was a bad day, made worse by this crackpot's claim."I don't understand," I said, my voice firm. "What do you mean?"The man's expression turned serious, his tone aggressive.
