The Bound Of Love Chapter 01: A Permanent Separation
Everything happened too fast. The misfortune came like an avalanche and no one expected doomsday was coming again after so many years of living in peaceful hiding. In a once peaceful village of the White Elf Tribe or the Healer Elves, a cruel onslaught took place; humans namely bandits, poachers and black merchants ambushed and pillaged their village.The screams and cries of the grieving elves poisoned the peaceful air. The weather turned dark and murky adding tension to the already tense scene."Run for the forest!"The elves shouted as they ran away from the river where the humans emerged fully armed. The river that flowed down from the mountain was the passage that humans used to sneak into the village as the mountains were the borders that separated Ancea from Numany the human territory and Luthien the vampire territory. Elves, young and old, who couldn't fight, fled into the forest where they find refuge from Mother Nature. Innocent animals scattered everywhere but some perish
The Bound Of Love Chapter 02: Fleeting Freedom
Suddenly, the sound of flapping wings came to her hearing and she lifted her face. A pigeon had just flown into the cage and landed on the shoulder of the elf who sat beside her. She saw the elf gently caressing the pigeon's silky head and heard her say, "I understand and thank you".When the pigeon flew out again, Amethyst asked the brown-eyed elf, "What did it tell you?"The tired elf looked at her and answered, "It says, we're now in Numany, the human territory."Amethyst's face turned pale and so did others.Suddenly, the carriage, that carried the cage, came to an abrupt stop, forcing the captives forward in their seats"Get out, you lots!"A rough voice along with the loud banging on the cage, shook everyone.The elves in the cage got out, and their hands were bounded as soon as they stepped on the ground. Then, they walked on foot, literally dragged, towards a massive tent that was located far from where they were dropped off. Along the way, humans were everywhere and they wer
The Bound Of Love Chapter 03: A Rude Elf
"But, why?" Amethyst asked seriously amidst her confusion. The elves exchanged glances among them. Then, one of them revealed in a whisper, "Wearing this dress helps to please the eyes of men..."Amethyst went mum. That was unexpected but heart-wrenching!The azure-eyed elves looked at the surprised Amethyst and one of them added, "...this place is a pleasure house that the humans established and we're just slaves here.""Yes, we have no power here but to follow their commands to continue living," the other one said and grievance embedded in her voice. "And you are one of us slaves meant to pleasure the humans.""What?" Amethyst was dismayed by the shocking truth. "Hey, are you done in there?!" a man's rough voice along with the loud bang on the door, took all three elves jumping in fright."W-we're almost done!" the female elf replied to the man who waited outside. Amethyst eyed the two pitiful elves before her. No, she was pitiful too because soon her fate would be the same as th
The Bound Of Love Chapter 04: Sold Again
Two men, different from before, dragged her out of the cold dungeon. Amethyst was too weak to stand on her feet and thus, had to rely on the men's strength to lift her. They went out through the same back door and reached a waiting carriage. There, a tall man wearing a black mask that covered his entire face was waiting."The elf is here!" Lord Leteas said as he beamed at the mysterious masked man. "What happened to her?" asked the man when Amethyst's dirty, weak and battered body came into his view. Plus, her tattered and soiled nightdress was disturbing to see. Also, she reeked of blood! Lord Leteas smiled and replied, "Well, she misbehaved and thus was sentenced to confinement to correct her manners. But, I assure you that she has broken nothing on her body. It's our creed to make sure anything we sell still retains its highest quality."It was a happy day for Lord Leteas when he heard about a mysterious wealthy man looking for golden-eyed elves. The greedy lord reached out to h
The Bound Of Love Chapter 05: A Mysterious Lunatic
The elf felt her blood pulse and she had no idea if she should be happy or terrified. Then, out of the blue, she said, "I am quite knowledgeable about medicine, and if you have any trouble anywhere on your body, I can help to heal you." She meant it, literally in every sense of it. It would be disheartening to know her saviour suffers from something that an elf like her could heal. Luveas sat back and laughed, amused. So, she thought I had a problem with my nose, he thought. "I'll keep that in mind and I'll surely seek you out when I'm feeling unwell anywhere on my body," he responded.Amethyst looked out the window, a cue that she wasn't interested in continuing to talk about her scent. "I'm famished and if I ask for some food, are you going to cut my neck?" she asked, changing the topic. "Why would I do such a thing to someone that I consider mine?" Luveas' voice reached her ears. In his voice, surprise took over. Amethyst found herself getting uncomfortable. The man was a swe
The Bound Of Love Chapter 06: Mere Merchant's Blasphemous Tale
Amethyst woke up, groaning. Her jaws ached. Her wounds hurt. Her stomach grumbled. Nothing was pleasant.The weary elf lifted her bedsore face and glanced around. "Where am I?" she mumbled. Her voice was raspy for her throat was dry.She was on a large four-poster bed with velvety sheets and pillows. White veils mantled the bed from the canopy down to the white wooden floor, curtaining the bedsides. Living green veins with blooming flowers coiled the bed posts, adorning them. The pleasant and soft scent of the flowers tickled her nostrils which were only familiar with the strong and pungent scent of dust and rust.The elf found herself admiring the bed as it was something that she had never seen in her life. Then, she crawled on all four to the bedside, pushed the veils gently to one side, and then, poked her head out.She was inside a strange room that looked like a massive glass dome. The skylight was high above her head, and the room was bright from the inside out. About twenty str
The Bound Of Love Chapter 07: To Us, Blood Is Water
Luveas was walking down the huge hallway when a man with fair white skin and red eyes dashed towards him."Your Majesty!" cried the man. Two sharp fangs could be seen in his mouth.Luveas halted and clicked his tongue unhappily. "I am busy, Tobeyaz."Tobeyaz came to a screeching halt before him. His eyes widened. "Busy? What kind of busy are you implying? Why must you go missing on such an important day? Do you even know what today is reserved for?!""Tobeyaz, please...""Your Majesty, if you want to stop me from nagging then, fulfil your duty. We cannot delay today's event any longer. Today is a very important day for the future of Luthien!""Tobeyaz, you talk too much." Luveas groaned unhappily. “Can I get a little break from your endless yapping?"It's you who turned me into this talkative parrot! You must return to the hall this instant! Everyone is waiting!" Tobeyaz snapped."I am busy!" Luveas said and then paced, ignoring him."Your Majesty, please don't do this!" Tobeyaz cried
The Bound Of Love Chapter 08: Royal Duty
Luveas was seen inhaling and exhaling deeply, taking his time. Then, came his reply in the form of a question, “When have I said I am one of them?” Amethyst felt her whole body shivering. Her heart palpitated. “Stay away from me,” she hissed at him.Nothing seemed pleasant when they were inside a room that looked like a cage. At any minute, this man, no, this vampire could attack and tear at her neck.“Amethyst, I am not going to harm you.” Luveas paced forward.“Get out of my sight!” Amethyst shouted and scooted to the other end of the bed, holding a pillow dear to her chest.“Amethyst-”“Get out!”Luveas ignored her shouting command as he lifted the veil, and he saw her cowered at the end of the bed.“Amethyst," he said, "I’m sorry for not telling you about myself. I didn’t mean to hide it. I thought of telling you soon, but given your situation, I thought I ought to hide it. But, trust me, I won’t hurt you. I am different from the other vampires for I have the power to protect you
