CHAPTER SIX

last update Last Updated: 2022-08-26 09:55:30

Healing Aric observed as the human's face became white in response to what he said.

He ought to have been more mindful that she was not accustomed to following instructions, but this was a skill that she would need to acquire rapidly.

He reiterated, pointing to the chair, "I said sit down and take off your top," but she did not budge from where she was sitting.

As she moved to carry out his directions, she had a slight quiver in her bottom lip, and one of her shoulders hung lower than the other.

While seated, she began a futile attempt to pull her shirt up over her head, gritting her teeth and biting her lip as she strained to move her damaged arm.

Aric rushed to her aid after assessing the level of suffering she was experiencing, pleading with her to move quickly.

Even though he could see the terror written all over her face as he approached, he didn't give a damn. Because time was of the essence, he had to determine the extent of her wounds as quickly as possible.

He assisted her with the tiniest amount of care imaginable as she pulled her shirt over her head and off her useless arm.

When Aric looked at her from below, he couldn't help but notice her enormous breasts, which were held in place by her bra, and the smooth, creamy skin of her neck, which concealed an artery beating beneath it. If she weren't a human, he would be tempted to try her, and if he hadn't already eaten, he would most likely taste her. If she wasn't a human.

He got down on his knees and softly prodded her shoulder, feeling the looseness in the joint as he did so.

When he lifted her arm from her side, he questioned her by asking, "How does this feel?"

She gasped out the word "hurt" as the anguish made it nearly impossible for her to speak. "It hurts."

After receiving her nod, Aric got to his feet and moved away from her to go to the phone.

When he heard the response he was expecting, he asked the person on the other end of the phone to bring the veterinarian to his room.

"Fine," he hissed as he slammed the receiver down on the table.

Aric looked at his new pet and stated, "Well, it seems as though the veterinarian won't be able to make it here before daylight."

He repositioned himself so that he was standing next to her and grabbed her arm with one hand while resting the other hand on the back of her shoulder.

He threatened sternly, saying, "I'm going to reset your shoulder myself on three." "I need you to relax as much as possible," the speaker said.

His animal companion nodded and then clamped her eyes tight before doing so. As he started to count, he could feel her muscles working on releasing their grip as he did so.

"One, two," he said before jerking her arm first in one direction, then in the other, and feeling it slide back into place with a sickening pop. "One, two." "Three."

Aric took a step back to examine his accomplishment, completely ignoring the agonized scream that she let out.

Her shoulders did not appear to be rotated abnormally any longer, although a new layer of sweat had just formed on her forehead, and she appeared to feel queasy.

Aric, who could feel his power beginning to wane, looked at the time and noticed only fifteen minutes left till the sun crested the mountains. He knew that he needed to hurry before his body was forced to rest for the day and that he needed to get moving.

He was unsure whether or not his cat could clean herself, so he questioned her, "Can you wash?"

In response, the guy bowed his head and slowly stood up on unsteady legs.

Aric picked her up off the floor and carried her to the restroom because he could not ignore the excruciating pain she was barely managing to hide.

    As the vampire picked me off the ground and carried me into the bathroom with one arm over my back and the other around my knees, I tried to stifle the rising panic washing over me.It didn't even look like he was using much effort to carry me, which was very strange."Flip the switch," the vampire said while pointing his head in the direction of a switch that was gold-plated.To comply with what I was told, I had to immediately shut my eyes to protect them from the brilliance that had begun to flood the room. In reality, the light illuminated both of the rooms. It appeared as though the bathroom had a closet that was connected to it and that closet was only partly stocked with clothes.Every square centimeter of the side of the bathroom was covered in gold or marble that had been polished. It was so huge that even the bathtub could accommodate three to four people.My master walked across the room and positioned me in front of a shower with glass walls before I could see much more of

    Aric had almost entirely forgotten about his new pet until he heard an unusual chattering sound. At that moment, he was drying himself off.Confused, he searched until he discovered his pet standing by herself in the shower, nude and shivering. She was attempting to rub some warmth into her arms while she stood dripping with water, her teeth chattering behind blue lips.Aric tucked his towel around his waist and walked to a cabinet across the room as he rolled his eyes and said under his breath about people's utter and complete idiocy. He wondered what he was going to do with a pet.Since he had just gotten rid of his previous pet, he had no desire or need for another animal companion.After pulling open one of the cabinet doors, he reached inside, grabbed a beautiful new towel, and then threw it to her before turning.He spat at her, "Dry yourself off before you catch a cold," as he felt the dawn approaching and realized that he was losing his strength. "The last thing I need is for

    As I stood there taking in the sights of my new house, tears streamed freely down my cheeks. It was futile to continue hiding them now that it was established that I was being held captive.I had been so close to freedom, just moments away from it, but then I made one dumb mistake, and my opportunity was lost.My enclosure was spacious enough to stand up inside it without my head coming close to colliding with the bars positioned above me, but, given that I was barely five feet tall, this did not say very much.When I extended my arms in one direction, I could almost touch the bars, while the other direction afforded twice as much space.Turning, I stood there and watched as my new master staggered towards the bed like a drunk, barely making it there before lying motionless on top of the covers.My heart was trying to open up to worry, but I kept it from entering by repressing it. To me, it didn't matter if the vampire lived or died. It wasn't my fault unless you count the following:

    Aric woke up with the stench of blood left to dry, itching at the tip of his nose.He blinked his eyes to clear the sleep from them and then glanced around for the source of the odor, attempting to recall whether or not he had left a cup of blood out for an excessive amount of time.Aric's eyes came to rest on the cage, and in an instant, his memories of the hunt came flooding back. This caused him to sit straight upright.As he got a closer look, he noticed that the cage was in a state of disorder, that the bed had been destroyed, that the mattress had been ripped up, and that there was a smell of blood everywhere.He sprang from the bed and hurried to the cage, where he quickly unbolted the door and kicked a piece of blood-stained wood out of the way.His companion animal was found snuggled up against the bars on the opposite side of the enclosure, blood and mattress stuffing caked all over her legs and hands.Aric was taken aback when she suddenly jerked her head up and stared inte

    When Aric witnessed the magnitude of the harm that she had caused to her hand while attempting to assist him, he couldn't help but feel awful for her.While resting his elbows on his knees and clasping his hands together, he sat at his coffee table.Aric simply sighed and continued to look at her in silence since he was at a loss for words.He scrutinized her face, taking note of the delicate scattering of freckles on her nose and cheeks, the fullness of her lips, despite their dryness, and the flecks of gold in the iris' of her terror-filled eyes with the red rims."Again releasing a heavy sigh, he said, "Well, I guess we should start with the basics." My name is Aric, with an "A" at the beginning. What do you have?"She spoke gently, scarcely detectable even to his vampire hearing, and whispered, "Liberty, Liberty Hope, but my mum names me Bertie." Her voice was barely heard even to him."Hope for Liberty?" Aric questioned with a smirk on his face, clearly thinking the option to be

    I couldn't believe someone had just brought an entire mountain of food for me.In addition to the hot chocolate, there were items that I could identify, such as fried eggs, thick slices of white bread with REAL butter, sausage links, cinnamon rolls topped with frosting, bacon, and other things.Was Aric anticipating that I would finish all of this food?As I looked between him and the mountain of food in front of me, I was trying to think of a way to tell him that there was no way I could eat even half of what was in front of me, let alone the whole thing, when he let out a hearty laugh. As I looked between him and the mountain of food, I was trying to think of a way to tell him that there was no way that.He laughed as he drank from the mug of... blood he had in front of him and told her, "You don't have to consume it all." "Since you wouldn't tell me what your preferences were, I requested that they deliver you a sample of everything that had been cooked that morning."After you've

    Aric could not take his eyes off his hands as he thought about the blood, her blood, that was trickling from his fingertips.I had no intention of causing her any harm.Angel was her name, he replied, his voice cracking with the emotion he was feeling. Since she was thirteen years old, I'd kept her, and she was more than just a pet to me; she was my closest friend.As he continued, he moved to sit cross-legged on the floor. "You see," he said, "when slaves reach the age of twenty-eight, our regulations stipulate that they must be disposed of in one of two ways." They are either delivered to a facility where they will be bled to death, and their blood will be added to our supply, or they are transported to a breeding clinic where they will be artificially inseminated an excessive number of times until they are unable to have children.He sniffed, unable to look at Liberty as he continued, "Angel was scheduled for the clinic." When she found out, she begged me to help her end her life o

    When I was finally able to use the restroom, the idea that went through my head was, "I never realized a body could store that much liquid and not burst."As I washed my hands, I was astounded when the hot water started coming out of the faucet instantly.When I got home, it would take the water anywhere from five to ten minutes to get to a temperature that was even close to lukewarm, but here, the water was so hot that I almost scalded myself.And the soap, oh the soap, had a lavender scent with a hint of lime, which was very different from the lye soap we had back at the house. The soap I discovered beside the sink did not cause my hands to become brittle and dry like other soaps; rather, it left my hands feeling soft and smooth.Because I wasn't sure whether I should use the clean towels, I decided to dry my hands on the front of my shirt instead.For the sake of safety.When I opened the door to go back to my place at the table, I observed many human slaves running back and forth.

    When Aric's mother glanced at her son, completely disregarding my presence in the room, I couldn't help but nibble the inside of my lip nervously.Aric began by giving my hand a firm squeeze before rising to his knees and bending over his mother. "Mother," he said, "You did come to me earlier and tell me that Liberty was concerned that I might become like my father, did you not?""Well," Lady Leanor started, no indication that she was ashamed or trying to be deceptive, "sure I did since that's what she said."Aric continued, his tone becoming increasingly agitated as he vented his frustration, "You also insinuated that she had merely been using me until she could find someone with more authority to go on to.""What?"Emily inquired as she abruptly jerked herself upright, interrupting the conversation as her eyes swept over her mother, her brother, and me."Because she did," Leanor yelled at me while directing her murderous glare in my direction.

    Aric took Liberty in his arms and led the way back to the chamber that he had staked a claim as their own.After temporarily leaving her to make arrangements for her mother's arrival, he returned to find Liberty standing naked under the stream of hot water coming from the showerhead.When he saw the scars that disfigured the previously smooth surface of her back, he couldn't believe that he had ever had any reason to distrust her.He undressed and joined her, then let his fingertips run over the scars his father had left in her flesh.While his arms were wrapped around her waist, he whispered into her ear, "For each and every one of these, I guarantee you a million wonderful moments."Liberty let out a contented sigh as she lay her back against his chest. She cherished the sensation of his strong arms surrounding her and protecting her at that very moment."Well," she continued with an invisible smile that suggested she was being playful, "you have eternity to do the work."Aric renew

    When Aric looked down into my eyes, he muttered, "I know you worry, and I promise that with you by my side, I can cope with everything."I drew his lips back to mine and whispered the words, "I love you."I needed to feel him against me now more than ever. As I reached up, I fumbled around frantically, trying to undo the buttons on his shirt, and I was almost in tears since it felt like such a challenge.At long last, I could get it out of the way and get a feel for the velvety smoothness of his chest beneath my palms.Aric's hands were fumbling at the hem of my own shirt, pushing it up and over my head as I heaved a sigh of relief.After he freed his lips from the cloth, he kissed a path down my chin, going agonizingly down my neck and finally latching on to my nipple after pressing the cup of my bra down.I couldn't help but sigh in contentment as I ran my hands through his thick hair and gently cradled his head in my arms.I murmured, "Aric," with a longing for buildup buried deep

    Aric's determination was almost shaken when he saw the agony in Liberty's eyes, but he managed to keep it together.If his mother's statement was accurate, he has been led to believe that she lied to him during their relationship. She has exploited her body to win his love and ensure her own future success.It seemed as though the evidence had been staring him in the face the whole time, didn't it?Because he had more authority, she ended up being his father's plaything, but as soon as that strategy backfired, she instantly found a way to get back into his bed.Aric muttered an expletive under his breath as he watched the woman who had once been his darling struggle to stand."Aric," she pleaded, tears streaming down her stunning face, "Aric, please, let me explain."While he had her by the shoulders and was choking her, he spat, "My mother explained enough." "You are more than a deceitful person who took advantage of me.""I never once exploited you," Liberty said under her breath as

    Before I can continue, I need a few moments to collect my thoughts and proceed.I was finally allowed to talk to Lady Leanor when I told her that Lord Lothaire had brought me here and that he had made me one of his slaves."Did he cause you any pain?"Aric's mother questioned with sadness and anxiety on her face.I could not stop the tears from falling as I said, "Yes, ma'am," but "in ways, I wish I could forget."Lady Leanor groaned as she took another sip from her cup and remarked, "He was a dreadful beast."I nodded in agreement as I wiped my cheeks and said, "Yes, he was."When I looked up, I sniffed and said, "You know, I always wondered how a guy as violent as your father could have a kid as great as Aric, and I think I know the answer.""He had you," I said as I stood up and maneuvered my way across the cramped room to embrace the other woman. "Thank you."She was perplexed as she questioned, "For what?"I conveyed it to her while gazing down at her and saying, "for your compas

    Liberty followed Lady Leanor into a cozy sitting area close to the office where Aric was working.Leanor stayed standing as she gazed down on the younger woman who had been chosen as the companion for her son and gestured for her to sit down."Are you hungry?"she enquired, noticing that she was beginning to feel hungry.Liberty said gently, "No, thank you," while wriggling uneasily under the inspection of the more experienced vampire.After nodding, Lady Leanor walked to the other side of the room and picked a blood bag out for herself. After ripping it apart, she transferred the blood-red liquid into a nearby cup before returning to her seat across from Liberty.Leanor couldn't help but emit a tiny giggle at the other woman's puzzled expression.Her voice was filled with mirth as she remarked, "I despise the taste those plastic bags leave behind in my mouth." "Call me old school, but if it's not coming directly from the vein, I prefer to drink it out of a cup," you can say that abou

    "My mum!" I said, startled to realize that since I had sent her the little letter, I hadn't given her a second thought.As I whirled around to face Aric in a state of terror, I could hardly get the words out.I choked out the words, "I have to get to her!" "I don't want her to learn from anybody else about what happened to me.I pleaded with him, "Please, Aric," as tears filled my eyes.He reached out to wipe the tears from my face as he said, "Of course, my darling. We can board the plane and be there in forty-five minutes."When I heard the word "plane," the recollection of the last time I had been on a plane with Lord Lothaire caused my legs' knees to weaken.When I started shivering because of the recollection, Aric grabbed me about the waist and held me close while he seemed to understand that he had made a mistake.Despite Januarius's gift of peace, the recollection horrified me. All the atrocities I'd been forced to endure at Lothaire's hands rushed through my mind as though th

    Aric's dispute with his mother continued until he discovered that Liberty was no longer in the area.As he looked around the room, he noticed that she was nowhere to be found at that point."Mother," he replied, holding out his hand to prevent her from offering yet another scathing response, "I am going to marry her regardless of what you think. I love her!""Love is not enough," Leanor said angrily in her response.A voice came behind them and said, "Love is enough."As Aric turned around, he noticed Liberty standing in the doorway, her chin lifted proudly over her chest.As she proceeded, she moved closer to Aric and intertwined her hand with his as she stood next to him. "Januarius informed me that our love was extraordinary," she said. "If he believes in us, then what gives you the right to doubt us?""I know you think you..." Leanor paused, staring at Liberty with a suspicious expression on her face. "I know you think you..." "Did you say Januarius talked to you?"Liberty said, "
