2024-12-31 02:58:49I tried to move. My legs, my arms, anything. But I could not. I was chained to a wall, like an animal. My arms and legs were bound and there was a chain around my neck.
He was here. I could feel him. I could hear the steady rhythm of his breath.
I heard his footsteps getting nearer. I wanted to close my eyes, wait for it to happen. If I closed my eyes, probably the whipping would not hurt as much as before. But I did not. As he stepped in front of me, I glared at him defiantly.
I hated him. I hated his family. I hated his name. I hated everything about him.
“Why so angry, darling? I am your husband. You should show some love for me,” he said, a crooked smile playing at the side of his lips. Through the gap between his lips, I could see his sharp fangs, ready to sink into soft flesh.
“Fuck you!” I yelled.
“Tsk, darling. You are a noble born lady. Why be so vulgar?” He crouched down in front of me. His fingers trailed my face to my neck. I sucked in a breath. “Be sweet. Like you are raised to be. Or, were you planning to be like this with the man who almost married you?”
“I would never act like this with him. He is much better than you ever could be. I would have loved him and given him anything,” I said.
“Like what? Children?”
“Yes. I will never give you any children!”
“Please, darling. It’s not like I want any of those gremlins,” he said, shrugging. “However, you do have things to give me. Come now, let’s prepare for our wedding night.”
***
Even just this morning, I was on my way to marry Rezef Thorn. I was twenty-one. It was time. However, I was not ready. I did not even like Rezef that much. It was an arranged marriage between House Star and House Thorn. As much as I hated it, I had to oblige.
I remembered hugging my mother for a long time. Mother pressed me against her chest as if the world was ending and we would never see each other again. She probably knew how much I hated to get married. If I married, I would have to give birth, which I dreaded too much. I was afraid of giving birth. Noble marriages were done for that reason only. To give successors to your husband.
As a noble lady, I was taught that since I bled for the first time.
The venue was at a temple. I was not religious. I never pretended to be. But my family was and I had to do whatever they wanted me to do.
On the way in the carriage, I was shaking.
And then the shouting began. The clanking sounds of swords. The explosion. The pounding on the carriage door. The blood. Then someone yanking the carriage door open.
Someone pulled me out by my arm roughly. I fell to the ground. For a moment, all I could see was blood and bodies falling like statues to the ground. After just a second, I realized something else.
It was my chance to be free. Perhaps fate was giving me a chance at a new life.
I began running. I ran for a while until someone caught me by the waist and put something against my nose. And everything went black.
When I woke up, I was in ballroom filled with strangers. Someone was holding me straight.
Even then I had no idea it was my marriage. But not to Rezef Thorn.
But to Damien Silverclaw, the heir of House Silverclaw, the sworn enemy of House Star.

Marrying Sully Star was a sudden decision, something I never thought I would do.I had come back only last night from a mission. I slept for a long time for that reason. I needed some rest. When I woke up, I found out from Rose that Father abducted Sully Star, the daughter of Jade Star, who was going to be married to Rezef Thorn.“Father is going to give her to Kiara. Kiara wanted a toy for a long time,” Rose had told me.After lunch, Father took me to see the woman in the dungeon. In the dark, I could not see her that well. Yet, I had decided right there and then that I wanted that woman. At least, to make Rezef suffer.Father agreed since he was satisfied with the outcome of the last mission. She was brought out of the dungeon and for the first time, I could see her clearly.Sully had brown clear skin and a small round face. Her figure was something I tried not to look at, because as a man, I felt something I should not feel for an unconscious woman.The maids prepared her for the w

Damien removed all the chains except for the one around my neck which I wanted more than anything to be removed.“If you remained still and didn’t throw a tantrum, they would not have to chain you like this,” Damien said. I first found out his name when the priest or whoever that was (He did not look like a priest. I just assumed) said his name during our so-called wedding.“What will you do with me?” I asked.“My sister asked the same thing a while ago. What do you mean by that, Sully darling? What will I do with my wife?” He tilted his head to one side as he said it as if he was amused. He looked less intimidating his father, but that must be because he was still young. How old would he be? Twenty? Twenty-five? Not more than that. When he would be more mature, he would be the exact copy of his father.“You don’t even know me. How will you act like a proper husband when I am your wife?”“I can do that. The question is- can you?”“No!”“But darling, you have to.”I was a realistic per

I trembled beneath him as his lips and hands explored my body. I felt vulnerable under his hungry gaze.He removed my hair from my right shoulder. “This will hurt.”“What will?”“This,” he said and kissed me on the shoulder. He licked there and before I knew it, he sunk his fangs into my shoulder.I gasped. It hurt. But more than that, there was an odd excitement in my body, much stronger than ever before.My body was getting hotter. It was like my blood was boiling, but not from anger; instead, from a hunger. He shrugged off his shirt while sucking my blood. I dug my nails into his back and screamed.I felt his hand creeping up between my thighs. My subconsciousness was telling me to stop him, but I could not. I wanted to feel it. Every part of it. I wanted him to do things to me I never thought I would want.His fingers touched the inside of my thighs. I let out a moan and wrapped my arms around him.Two of his fingers slid inside me as I was already wet. I was a little ashamed abou

I woke up the next morning feeling properly rested. Damien was not there. Actually, I did not wake up on my own. The maids woke me up.They were eyeing my naked body like vultures. I felt uncomfortable. Some of them were even whispering between themselves.I looked at myself in the mirror and understood what they were talking about. My whole body was covered in red sucking and biting marks. I blushed and looked away quickly. Before that, I clearly saw the two fangs marks on the side of my neck.The maids bathed me. They did not talk amongst themselves much. Other than occasional whispering, they were puppet-like. They worked methodically as if being controlled by an outer force.It was still early. The maids said I had to attend the family for breakfast. I had no idea who was who except for the head of Silverclaw family and Rose Silverclaw. I saw both of them at the Prince’s coming of age banquet.Rezef told me they were as sly as snakes and I had to keep my distance from them. What a

When we entered the dining hall, almost all the chairs were occupied.Damien nodded at the man who sat at the head of the long table. I raised my eyes and saw the Head of Silverclaw family. He was a man with domineering presence. His head was held high as he watched me head to toe. He had dark black hair like Damien and silver eyes. He was just an older version of Damien. He was most probably in his early forties. How old was Damien? I had no idea. I should ask him after the meal was over.On his right was a smiling short woman. She had dark hair, a mix between brown and black, and freckles all over her face. The woman beside her gave me a small smile. She had hair as white as snow. Her eyes were golden like fire. She seemed timid. There was another woman on the Head’s left-hand side. She had only one eyes. The other eyelid was sewn shut. So were her lips. I shuddered and gulped down the scream that almost left my mouth.Damien placed a hand on the small of my back and led me to thr

My mother was the second wife of my father. Right after I was born, Rose was born. We had different mothers. Our mothers were far from different. They had exactly opposite personalities. Still, my mother liked Rose’s mother Rosalia and spent time with her.Rose and I were not close. We still were not that close. But we were stuck together since childhood.Sully must know about Rosalia. I had seen her watching Rosalia. Rosalia was from the Star family, after all. She was Rose’s aunt, her father’s sister. My father kidnapped Rosalia and married her, the same way I married Sully.A war almost broke down decades ago when it happened. In the end, the two families came to a negotiation.Sully never met Rosalia before. She probably just heard about her. Sully was born a year after Rosalia was kidnapped.

I splashed cold water on my face. It did not look so puffy anymore. Demian left because he had work to do. I was left alone. I told him not to let any maids in.I cried for a long time. I had held it in as long as I could. But not anymore.Seeing Rosalia there, stuck for years with such a horrendous man, made me feel hopeless. Would that be my fate as well? Or, would my fate be like Clarissa with her sewn eyelids and lips?If Demian’s father was capable of doing something like that, so was Demian. Besides, Demian did all the dirty work for his father. That was the reason he never went to the banquets. Because he was always busy getting rid of people.Even now that he left, he probably went to kill someone or stalk someone.Rosalia, the beautiful younger sister of my father, kidnapped at age eighteen by Alexander Silverclaw just because she was beautiful and he liked her looks. Rosalia never could leave this place. Not even once. My father had not seen her for years.I and all my other

“Tell me about you, sweetheart.”I glanced at Dela once more. She was smiling. Her manners were gentle. She called me ‘sweetheart’ and did not act rudely with me. Instead, the moment I came here with my maids, she embraced me in her arms and kissed my cheek. Then we sat down and had tea when she asked about myself.“There is nothing interesting about me, Your Grace,” I answered.“No, no, I am certain there is. Rosalia is so interesting. A charming lady. You are from House Star too. I am certain you are also a very admiring lady with interesting stories,” she said. “Go on. Tell me about your childhood. And do not call me Your Grace. That makes us sound so distant when we are not. Just call me ‘Mother’, won’t you?” She smiled again.I nodded. “Yes, Mother.”There was truly nothing to tell her. She probably knew everything about me by now through an informer.“I am the second oldest daughter and the third child of my parents. I have two brothers, two sisters and a half-sister. My elder si

Demian had been watching me in an odd way. He usually looked at me a lot. But now, he was blatantly staring at me regardless of the place we were in.“Who do you think it is?” I asked, not for the first time. “Is it Luke? But I don’t understand why he would do that. He might want to… you know, he might be attracted to my body, but I don’t see the point of his sending someone to kill me.”“I don’t know anything, Sully. I’m looking into it,” Demian said. He said the same thing every time I asked. It was getting tiresome. He was acting differently. I could barely recognize my husband.“What’s wrong?” I asked, placing my hand on his arm. His arm was strong and hard. “Did something happen?”He shook his head. “Nothing. I just have a lot of things on my mind.”I could not ask him what they were since he looked like he did not want to share.I lay my head on his lap. His whole body was like it was made with steel. It was not comfortable to lay on his lap, but I was in peace when I did it.“T

Sully was talking animatedly to my mother. She had gotten close to Mother. There was nothing common between her and Rosalia. Sully was everything Rosalia was not. The only thing common between them was the fact that both of them were beautiful. Mother liked her despite the differences.Sully giggled at something Mother said. Her eyes met mine for a second. She gave me a smile and returned her attention to Mother.I heard about the intruder that came into Sully’s room to kill her two nights ago. I did not have to hear about it to know the particulars.Because I sent that man.I wanted to see the real Sully. The one behind the veil. I wanted to see her being herself. For once, I wanted to glimpse at the person behind the face of the weak woman who was afraid of everything. I wanted to see the genius alchemist who made illegal potions, danced at brothels and was planning something dangerous behind everyone’s back.He was not supposed to kill her. He was going to frighten her a bit. If sh

I stared at the window, at the man coming inside my chamber. I lay still, watching him. He was not so tall, but not short either. He was wearing a cloak, perhaps dark green or red. I could not tell in the dark. But I could see the outline of him as he came near the bed towards me.My heart was calm. It was not thundering inside my ribcage like it did when I was anxious.The man bent over my body. I felt his musky breath on my face. I felt his fingers wrap around my throat. It grew tighter with each moment.I raised my hand from my side and stabbed the man in the neck with a dagger. It all happened very fast. He let out a small groan, clutching the side of his neck where I stabbed him. I pulled the dagger out and let him bleed out.It was amusing watching him bleed out on the ground. I sat on the bed, my feet dangling from the side, and watching him. There was blood on my right arm, but I did not care.I watched the life go out of his eyes and thought, not for the first time, who I was

The days were spent with me going to the library with Theodore, having tea with Rose and sometimes with Dela and Rosalia and then seeing my brother Jace in the dungeon every few days. Rose took me down there and showed me a cell that Alexander wanted to give to me.Jace was okay. Rose did not hurt him. But living in the dungeon was taking a toll on him. I could see it in his face. He did not look as lively and alive as before.“I’m fine. Just take care of yourself,” Jace would say every time I cried about his condition.“Demian treats me alright. I don’t have to live in a dungeon like you, Jace. I’m worried you will catch some sickness living in the filth. Rose, can’t you tell your father to move him elsewhere?” I looked up at Rose expectedly.Rose shook her head. “I wish I could, but you know as well as I do that it’s not possible. Father is mad enough that Jace is not dead.”Leo was still here. I had not had the chance to meet him again. I could not dare risk it. We could not let Al

I told Demian about the rumor when he came back at night. He said he knew about it.“I know you are not sleeping with him,” he said. “Besides, Theodore is not brave enough to lay his hand on you.”“I think it’s not bravery but insolence to lay hand on his sister-in-law,” I said.“It is, isn’t it?” he chuckled. “Try saying that to Luke.”“It is Luke, not Theodore I’m worried about. Theodore won’t do anything. But never ever be alone in a room with Luke, or Father for that matter.”“What if they summon me?” I asked.“Father might and you have to go if he does. But as I said, I’m keeping an eye on you. I will try not to let anything happen to you, but I can’t guarantee. Try to be with Rose. I talked to Rose and she said she will protect you for the time being,” he said. “But if Luke summons you, you don’t have to go. He is nothing to you that you have to listen to his whims.”I braided Demian’s hair slowly. His hair was straight and soft. My fingers could get through them easily.“Your h

“Your brother wants to take me to the library,” I told Demian after we came back to our chamber. It was good to see Leo, although I was not satisfied; I wanted to get him alone so we could talk. I said I trusted Demian, but not entirely. It was hard, if not impossible and stupid, to trust a Silverclaw. They were too sly for their own good.“Did you tell him to?” Demian asked. He did not believe Theodore suggested it on his own. “I know how much you like books.”“Your brother wants to take me there because I told him I like books,” I said.“How many times did you tell him? A hundred times over the course of a few days so he would be forced to take you there because he is so soft towards you?”It was like Demian could see through me. It never happened before, so I was not prepared for such a forward attack.“What do you think of me, Demian? Do you think I am a vile and sly woman?”Demian smirked. His silver eyes never seemed so warm before.“Not vile, darling. You are rather pleasant. B

Sully was okay. It was my first thought upon seeing her. I had not seen her in a while, but she was the same as ever. Sharp crimson eyes and those plump lips that told a lie within a flash and a face that could mimic her lies.Rezef Thorn could never suit her. He was a man of words, brave but not strong enough and a hero. He was hailed a hero. But when I saw Demian Silverclaw with her, oddly enough, I felt that he suited her more than anyone ever could. He was a liar and a manipulator, just like her. There was no better couple than them. And seeing them together, I had no doubt that their relationship as a married couple was not an act, but real, despite the situation that threw them together.Sully explained everything to me.“When asked, tell Alexander that I seem to have some problem with fertility, so you are making me a potion,” Sully said.“Are you really?” I asked jokingly.She exchanged a look with Demian. “I don’t want children, you know that,” she said. I knew that. In fact,
The Kidnapped Bride Sully
When we made the illegal potions at the academy, we would see it to a merchant named Owl because he had an owl with him all the time. We would never reveal our identity. We would wear cloaks and masks- Leo a fox mask and me a hawk mask. Our secret names were respectively Fox and Hawk. The merchant would then sell it to buyers underground. Like us, the merchant never revealed his identity to us, although we found it out anyway.Once, at home, I made a potion using a full-blood vampire’s blood that I bought from Owl. I made poison for full-blood vampires. In the books, it was said that it was almost impossible to brew a potion that would hurt a vampire, or even kill it. But I made it possible. I was seventy percent sure of the potion’s success. I sold it to Owl on my own since Leo was not with me. I got the most money selling that poison. I never thought it was Demian who bought it from Owl.The specialty of the poison was that it was a slow-killer so you would not even notice something

“I knew Theodore had an alchemist who gave him medicine in secret. Father would not approve so Theodore had to keep it a secret,” Demian said. “I also knew it was Leo, but back then, I did not know this Leo is your friend Leo. I realized so after you told me about him. And I also looked into your background, so there is that.”“He is here because of your father,” I said. “Do you know that?”“Of course. I was the one who told him about Leo. Leo also agreed readily because he wanted to see you,” Demian said. “Although Father did not tell me exactly why needs an alchemist.”“And you don’t know why?” I asked.“I do. It’s my job to know things, Sully darling,” he said. It was rather strange for us to talk so comfortably as if we had known each other our whole lives. He braided my hair as he talked, his movements smooth. I taught him how to braid; he was a quick learner.“Won’t you tell me?” I asked.“First of all, what do you know about vampires?” he asked.“Well, that they drink blood, ob
