11: Nothing to Protect
"I am Lily, Miss Eve. I will assist you in dressing up and in doing your hair," the woman in uniform who went in my room.
She was tall, a little taller than me, blonde, white and beautiful. There's no doubt that she is a vampire.
"Thank you."
It is the day of the wedding. I look into the mirror with me wearing the grand wedding gown I had chosen. Not that I want something grand to wear in marrying someone I don't love, but the thing is, all of those dresses that Landon prepared for me were all grand—not just grand, but very grand. But even if I don't want any of those, I have no choice but to pick one, so we can go on with the wedding part and get done with it.
The one I had chosen is perfectly fit to my body. It is very intricate and has crystals all over the bodice. My hair was done in updo with few tendrils intentionally left in front for the classic style. My make up was done smoothly and perfectly

The cermony started shortly and I tried to look any other bride as much as possible. Though if the audience have very observant eyes, I think they would notice that I am a little weird or that Landon and I are a little indifferent to each other. But well, I think there is just a small percentage that they would think something is wrong with Landon because he is kind of a good actor. He even kissed my hand when he reached out for me as we both faced the vampire who would wed us.I didn't feel anything when Landon did that for the sake of our pretend relationship. It's just, I got irritated on myself for imagining someone else's face. I really hope that I would soon forget all the worthless emotions and remnants of the past. Who knows Carter is also in somewhere, having his happy ever after with his new found mate? To be honest, I hate how Carter made me believe and feel that I was the woman destined for him, that we are destined for each other. I hate how he made me feel that
The Demoness Alpha 13: Celebration Chaos
They say, it is hard to push someone you love away, but I was able to do it with Carter. Yes, I do still love him after everything that happened, only that it is not as potent as before. My anger, pain and the urge to avenge my loved ones are more stronger.I looked at Carter with nothing but empty, cold eyes. His image was the idea of comfort for me back then. Whenever he is near, I always feel safe and good, that nothing bad will happen to me because he is there always, ready to do everything just to protect me. He was that person to me—that person who I can't leave without. But everything change in an instant. When he left me to get ruined by his own kind. I do not think I will ever forget how I loved him, I will never forget all those memories because it was embedded in my soul, and that with my vampire mind, my memory is a lot sharper that I can remember all the details of the past. But even though I will not forget about it in my mind, it doesn't mean it will fore
The Demoness Alpha 14: Familiar Man
"Humans' yatch party?" I asked. Well, in my imagination, vampires don't hold social gatherings like that, so the first thing that got in my mind is that we are going to humans' yatch party. But wait, why would an elite vampire like Landon would bother spending time to a party held by humans? That does not sound right."Humans? What business I would do with mortals? Since you would be my partner as of the moment, you should remember that I do not do anything without a valid reason. And you know what is valid for me? If the reason is purely business."Right. That matches his attitude and appearance."So you mean we are going to a vampire party?""Indeed.""What are we going to do there?" I don't have any idea yet what are Landon's plans but of course his every action relative to it concerns me, so it is just right to ask for a little details, right? After all, we are partners in our plans. We are involved
The Demoness Alpha 15: Forgetting
It was Carter.Our gaze met and I felt like my world stopped for a moment. It was very quick though. Just very quick that I felt like it never came to me, like it was just a very quick moment of time that was not a vital part of my life. He was wearing a black suit, his face serious and his eyes were dark as he held my gaze. The way he looked at me made me think that he had so much to say to me, that he wanted to do so much. His lips was pursed tight and his jaw was tight as if there was something pissing him off real bad.For a moment, questions swirled down my mind and I felt like I wanted to throw him questions I had never planned of asking him ever since I turned a vampire. Questions that I wanted to ask but I will never ask because what is it for? With the path I had chosen, with the life I have now, would all of those even matter? No. It will not matter because whatever he will say or do, I am very sure that it will not lessen the pain that I had felt when I was
The Demoness Alpha 16: Pacified
Insanity.If there is one word that could describe that night, it would be that word. I could not believe that I had actually brought myself to do that with Landon. I gave in. I gave my virtue to him and I could not believe that I really did that. Even when I was with Carter, we never came to that point. Or maybe Carter had just amazing self-control to step over his limits. And it was different with him before because I was a human and he needed to be careful.But then, it was also different with Landon, a lot different because in the first place, I had no feelings for him. I did not love him the way how I loved Carter before. So what the hell pushed me to throw all my inhibitions away and go with the flow. It is very obvious that Landon just wants to play. Of course what else could be the reason why he did that? It is impossible that he developed some kind of feelings for me in those couple of weeks. And Landon is certainly not the 'f
The Demoness Alpha 17: Dress
To feel that kind of potent need was strange and dangerous. The moment I smelled the luscious scent of the man's blood, I was so certain that there was no stopping for me. That it was either he would die or I would. The latter sounds impossible, though. So I knew that the first was more likely to happen.But for some reason, I don't know how Landon managed to stopped me. I don't know how he managed to calm me at a point where I thought I had lost my ability to be rational. He was able to put out the fire that he knew would cause the biggest regret of my life. And more than thankful that he did. Because I don't know what I could have done to myself later on if ever I had killed that man.The door opened and it was followed by Landon's baritone voice. "Had you completely calmed yet?"During the incident in the hallway earlier, after I came back to my senses, I ran to the other side where the man was standing and went to
The Demoness Alpha 18: Maximilian
"I have an urgent news, My Lord." Henry just suddenly appeared from the shadows when Landon and I were walking at his manor's hallway. We are about to leave for the ball."Is this matter very urgent?" Landon asked, his hand did not leave my waist."I suppose.""Speak.""Sebastian is gone."Landon's eyes went focused and darker. "What do you mean he is gone?""He is dead, My Lord."I have once met this man named Sebastian. He is also one of the few trusted subordinates of Landon that is why to hear about his sudden death did not sound good. In fact, I wonder. Vampires don't die in natural deaths, most especially not in accidents. So there must be one reason why he died—he was killed."Who killed him?" Landon's tone sound so silent and lethal, I felt like he is ready to burn the culprit alive for killing his subordinate. Of course Landon is not dumb. By now he surely have an idea why Sebastian was killed. It must be to prov
The Demoness Alpha 19: Backstory
"What is this?" I asked Landon when he brought me to an old manor somewhere in north Manchester.Right after he had killed Maximilian, he killed his two wives and Maximilian's people were killed by Henry and Landon's other men. We left the place shortly. Then the day after, Landon brought me in this place with me having no idea what business are we going to do in this place."Your ancestor's manor. This is owned by Elena Ross, the mother of Elizabeth," Landon replied."Elena Ross? The name doesn't ring a bell. As far as I know, Grandma Elizabeth's mother named Celestine, not Elena.""Celestine…" He nodded. "Must be the name she used when she started a new life with her husband.""You mean she changed her name? But what for?" If it was Landon the one who said it, I'm sure it is not a fallacy or something. I don't know why it come to him, I trust easily. Why would he lie about this matter anyway?
