LAVINIA'S POV

I woke up feeling better than ever. It's been ages since I've had a good sleep.

My eyes ventured to the clock on the wall and my heart nearly stopped, it's 6:30 PM and dinner is at 7!

If I'm late on the first day, Elva will think badly of me and that'll make it harder to gain her trust.

I got up from bed and rushed to the Armoire at the corner of the room. I opened it and saw it was filled with a good number of clothes, most of which were short dresses but I couldn't worry about that now.

I picked up a green dress and changed into it quickly.

While Elva wasn't looking, I had slipped my pendant into my corset and I'm very grateful that the prince had not asked me to undress. I picked up my pendant and put it around my neck, carefully hiding the pendant inside my dress.

I then wove my hair into a long braid and rushed towards the door. Just as I was about to open it, a knock came.

I opened it and saw a girl in front of me, she beamed a smile at me and somehow, I felt a li

I gritted my teeth and balled my hands into fists.This girl was seriously seeking my dander, she seemed to have it out for me for reasons best known to her.Just because I'm new here, I won't let her bully me. I also won't fall into her trap, no matter what she does, I mustn't fight her or it'll attract punishment from Elva.I'll just have to be really careful from now on. When the time is right, I'll make sure to deal with her."What is wrong with you? Do you have two left feet or something?" Elva yelled at me, obviously unamused."I'm sorry, I felt dazed for a second and lost my balance. It won't happen again." I lied, covering up with an apology."It'd better not. You're the blood slave of a prince, it's utterly indispensable that you take care of yourself. You can alw

    LAVINIA'S POVI had nightmares all through. For the past few months, ever since I was captured, I've only been having nightmares.I finally got a good sleep a few hours before dinner last night but I should have known it wouldn't last.My nightmares were usually a recap of all the terrible things that had happened in my life so far, but only worse because in my dreams, there was so much sorrow, blood, death and gore that it left me shaking a good hour after waking up.This nightmare had particularly been about Primrose, I couldn't really see what happened to her because it was all a blur but I was well aware of her condition.She was weak and pale, tears stained her eyes and she was bloodied. She accused me of betraying her before passing out.In the dream, I tried to wake her up, begged her not to leave me just like the others but she refused to respond.Just then, I heard a strange voice, it was masculine but shrouded in mystery, each word filling me with dread.I turned around and

We finally arrived there and watched with bated breath as Linette and Maertisa were just about to serve the food.Elva glared daggers at us, expecting us to explain ourselves."You're late." She deadpanned and Ara just kept quiet, leaving me to speak."I'm….." I attempted to speak but she cut me off."I understand that Lavinia just arrived yesterday so it may take her a bit of time to adjust to things around here but even at that, I will not condone tardiness. I certainly didn't expect this from you, Araxie.You've been here a while and you know the rules, you should be punished in order to serve as a warning to the others." Elva spat, her eyes never leaving us. Ara shrinked backwards and she almost looked like she was holding back tears. I felt bad at this because if I hadn't insisted, she wouldn't have wasted time by chatting with me in my room.I can't let her be punished for my mistake."Elva please don't shout at her

    LAVINIA'S POVThere's obviously no such thing as stealth when I'm around him.Despite knowing he's already aware of my presence, I knocked anyway.He grunted a reply and I went into the room, closing the door behind me.He was sitting at a desk, going through some documents."Take off your dress and get on the bed." He ordered and I didn't bother resisting.I slowly began taking off my dress, taking off my necklace as well. I went to the bed in my underwear and sat on it.He finally finished whatever he was doing and approached me. He took a good look at me while I kept my eyes glued to the floor."What happened to your head?" He suddenly asked and the question completely caught me off guard. Why is he pretending as if he cares?"I slipped and hit my head on the dining table." I answered nimbly and he broke into a laugh.Really? He's laughing at me?!I suddenly felt his large hand around my neck, strangling me as he pushed me hard against the wall."You should know better than to lie

    LAVINIA'S POVMy eyes suddenly flicked open, shadows blinding me for a few seconds. I blinked repeatedly and tried to clear my vision. There was a lamp in my room, fairly lighting the place. How did I get here? Wasn't I in the Prince's room a second ago?He was drinking from me and then……I suddenly heard someone clear their throat and my head snapped to the direction instantly. Relief washed over me when I saw it was just Ara."I'm glad you're finally awake. You've been out for a couple of hours." She said and I tried to sit up but she rushed in to assist me."What happened?" I asked as I yawned and rubbed my eyes tiredly."Never mind that. We can talk later but you have to eat first. It's pretty late, everyone's already had dinner but I informed Elva about your condition and she let me bring your food to your room. You were sleeping so peacefully and I didn't want to wake you." She narrated and I pulled a small smile.I do feel a little bit tired but I'll have to admit that the rest

    LAVINIA'S POVSomehow, it still makes absolutely no sense to me why Prince Kian decided to take me to the Creation Ball instead of Nyx.What plans could he possibly have for me? Could it be that he did this just to foster Nyx's hatred for me?No, that's out of the question since the Prince wouldn't waste his energy on something so petty. Whether deliberately or not, his actions are surely going to cause problems for me.Just when I thought I could get through to Nyx, he had to come and do this.Today's the ball and there's no way I can refuse to go. Even if I did, my getting punished would still not appease Nyx so it would just be better to be on my guard.The ball is in about an hour and Prince Kian had asked me to get ready.I felt reluctant but still brought out the dress. I took a closer look at it, admiring the intricate patterns on the lace.I quickly changed into the dress but found it difficult to pull up the back zipper.

If that's true then does that mean I can ask for my freedom if I manage to solve his riddle?This seems too good to be true. From my encounter with Vampires, I highly doubt they're capable of keeping their word. It doesn't mean I shouldn't try. I'll just have to try and hope for the best.I try to reason out the answer to his riddle when the first man speaks up."The answer is self hatred.""What makes you say that?" Prince Kian questioned, his eyes glued to his glass as he moved it slowly, the liquid inside following the movement of the glass."Well, because the end of the riddle says that the guardian who is blocking your way is none other than you. You've been fighting the guardian all along to get through without realizing that any harm you do, you do to yourself because you're the guardian of your own heart.I feel like the portal you're trying to get through is your heart.

He wiped away my tears and tasted it."Your tears are quite sweet but don't waste them, you'll need it when I punish you." He said and I didn't realize when a smile curved the edge of my lips.He easily carried me in his arms bridal style and I rested in his embrace, feeling satisfied.I had never been so excited for a punishment.He took me to the training room, as I called it. It was a secret room, after his bathhouse, that was specially designed for training slaves.When we got there, he put me down and told me to strip. I wasted no time in obeying and stood completely naked in front of him.I tried to cover myself as I kept my eyes glued to the floor."What did I say about covering yourself in front of me?" He questioned and I reluctantly put my hands down.I always had small breasts which I was very insecure of but I

    Nyx's POVI had just about received the biggest humiliation of my life.I thought I wouldn't be able to face anyone after that but giving up is not an option. If I want my dream to come true then I simply cannot give up.I love Prince Kian way too much to simply let some lowlife girl from the gutters come and steal him away from me.I had worked very hard to become my Master's favourite slave, done things I ordinarily would never do for any man and I'm willing to do anything to stay by his side. The only thing I want in life is his love, it's all I live for.It wasn't always like this in the beginning. I never really liked men to begin with because my father was abusive, he treated my mother like trash and degraded me and my sisters just because we were girls.In my young mind, I concluded all men were monsters and decided that I would never get married.It was a day after I turned 18 that our village was attacked by the Vampires. My father was planning to sell me off to some rich old

    LAVINIA'S POV"Don't you know it simply isn't good manners to treat a lady like that? Or would you like me to teach you some manners?" A voice from the shadows suddenly said, causing the two men who were forcefully taking me to the garden to pause."Don't try to act like a hero by hiding in the shadows, come out and face us." The first man spoke and I began to wonder if this was just another one of their tricks. Could there be a third person?The third person chuckled and finally came out of the shadows.Even under the moonlight, I found myself mesmerized by him. He had long bright blonde hair that fell over his shoulders and clear amber eyes that could enchant and suck anyone in, he had long eyelashes and beautiful features. He had pale skin like the rest of them and he held a mischievous smile as he approached us.Immediately they laid eyes on him, both men let go of me instantly and moved backwards to both my surprise and relief.I turned to look at them in shock and the look of f
