The Vampire King Reclaiming His Lost Princess Poisoned Cupcakes And Imaginary Friends
What time was it? Was it already night? Or was it just dark in her room? Esmeray's mind was a fuzzy mess. She blinked rapidly to get rid of her blurred gaze. It felt like she was dying, everything in her body hurt especially her hands. And on top of that, she had the weirdest freakish dream. Esmeray dreamed of the Vampire King. Him in her domain, tending to her wounds, proposing to her, crying for her. What a crazy dream it was. . . How long was she going to pain for a meanie like him? Esmeray groaned. Even if she had left the bastard's Kingdom, the recollections of the time they had spent together won't leave her alone. "Fuck!!" She screamed at the top of her lungs. When she turned around with a moan which almost made her sound like a dying whale Esmeray gasped, trying to rise above the tide of churning emotions in her head. The King of Vampires in all his royal glory was sitting on a wooden chair beside her worn-out bed, looking spooked by her sudden outburst. Her heart stu
The Vampire King Reclaiming His Lost Princess You Are My Moon
Vladimir's fingers drummed rhythmically on the wooden table while his knee bobbed up and down. Sitting beside his bride for the past fifteen minutes he was anxiously waiting for her to say something, anything to initiate a conversation since she had come down after getting dressed. After another five minutes, giving up on the wait Vladimir decided to break the ice. "Why were you crying last night?" He asked in a gentle whisper, trying not to spook her. "You mean to ask why I was having an episode?" Esmeray lips twitched. This was a first. The blunt Vampire was filtering his words to gentle the blow. "I'm a busy person and it is hard to find time to vent my frustration out so I do that sometimes. I let the sadness consume me. It's a healthy way to manage my emotions." Feeling his eyes on her she looked down at her bandaged hands, shrugging as if it wasn't a big deal. "Are you single?" The Vampire King blurted out of nowhere making Esmeray's eyes snap towards him. "What if I'm not?
The Vampire King Reclaiming His Lost Princess Honey-Eyed Mischievous Wizard
"What are you two doing here?" Esmeray inquired with a grin, standing from her chair. "We finished sooner than expected and came to surprise you. But you seem rather busy making bizarre plans as we witnessed a minute ago." Amell muttered broodingly while taking off his shades. He was dressed in a casual grey suit paired with a white undershirt and sneakers as usual twining with his elder brother Raziel. Ignoring Amell's remark Esmeray turned towards Vladimir who was still sitting at the table assessing them. "Vlad meet Amell and Raziel. They are my companions." "Companion? What happened to me being the love of your life? Your future husband?" Amell's eyes flickered towards the Vampire King momentarily. One corner of his mouth twitched upward in satisfaction as Amell saw that he was pulling the right strings. "Why are you so quick-witted when it comes to stuff like this?" Esmeray murmured softly with a sad shake of her head. "Why do you have to be so dim-witted? Why can't you just
The Vampire King Reclaiming His Lost Princess Keeper Of Secrets
The engine of the bikes roared as they cut through the roads of the small town, catching everyone's attention. Esmeray's laughter couldn't be heard over the defeating engine, she clutched at Raziel's shoulders from behind for her dear life as they raced with Amell towards their destination. Everything around them passed in a blur. The speed made her ears ring. The feeling was similar to countless butterflies fluttering inside her stomach. This was what they lived for. This dopamine rush, the thrill of being alive. The fleeting joy of the moment made them forget the worries of the future and the sorrows of the past. Esmeray didn't know for how long they had been riding until with a drift, their bike came to a stop in front of their regular place. Amell was already standing there with his helmet in his hand and a smug look on his face. "Suck it losers!" He fist-pumped the air as they walked inside the restaurant. 'They are back in the town.' 'Look at those toxic hunks.' 'They pr
The Vampire King Reclaiming His Lost Princess A Witch's Downfall
'Their Hearts Were Their Downfall' The bell hanging above the entrance of the restaurant chimed indicating the arrival of a new customer. There was a sudden shift in the air, pin drop silence fell over the restaurant as if an unknown threat had entered the room. Even Raziel and Amell's postures stiffened. "Now who that might be!" Amell muttered under his breath making a disgusted face. Except for Raziel both Esmeray and Amell looked back to see who had propelled the nosy humans into silence only to find the Vampire King standing at the entrance in all his royal glory dressed in a classic well-tailored black three-piece suit that might have cost a fortune. As the King strode across the carpeted floor every inch of him was humming with power, like a feral beast ready to pounce on his prey. The human around him had shrunk back in their chairs. Even if they don't know what he was their instinct still recognised him as a threat. Even Amell couldn't deny the fact that the man carried
The Vampire King Reclaiming His Lost Princess Trapped In The Past 1: The Night That Changed Everything
Vladimir was trapped in emptiness no matter how much he tried he couldn't break through the blackness. Utter panic filled his very being as a luminous ring of energy zapped around him and he found himself standing in a foreign room. ‘Knock’ Vladimir's gaze darted around the room at the sound. ‘Knock’ ‘KNOCK! KNOCK!!’ As the sound got aggressive Vladimir's gaze fell on the tiny trembling body on the bed hidden under blankets. 'Where am I?' He couldn't help but think as he took in the odd pink room that had pictures of food painted all over the walls, the room that might belong to the child under that blanket. 'KNOCK! KNOCK!! KNOCK!!!' The little girl tucked in her bed squeezed her eyes shut at the sound. Her heart was pounding like a drum in her chest as her little body shook violently with each shaky breath. “Knock, Knock! KNOCK!!!” The banging started getting more aggressive than before in her quiet room. Taking a deep breath, summoning up all the courage in her body the
The Vampire King Reclaiming His Lost Princess Trapped In The Past: 2 Esmeray’s Trial
At the age of twelve Esmeray was standing in front of a Panel of Elders of the Sacred Land of Witches waiting for them to decide her fate. She looked at her mother who seemed to be in a daze, turning her face she gazed at her sisters Maeve and Nimue who seemed to look at her as if she was a stranger. Fat tears rolled down her chubby cheeks. Her bottom lip quivered. She didn't know what was going on. The people who were supposed to be at her side were standing against her. “Why do you have called for our assistant Maeve?” Lady Ascian, one of the Elders came out of the shadows and demanded in a gentle tone. Esmeray’s eyes flickered towards the five others who were still sitting in the shadows, hidden from everyone's sights yet the aura of sovereignty and power emitting in waves from them was enough to make everyone fall on their knees. Only Esmeray was standing on her little feet. She could feel the Elder's dominance yet it was tolerable for her, suffocating yet bearable. “The gir
The Vampire King Reclaiming His Lost Princess Trapped In The Past: 3 Banished
Holding Esmeray's face between her hands, caressing her chubby cheeks her mother whimpered. “Don’t ever doubt my girl, I have loved you like my own and I always will." “We don’t abandon the people we love mother.” Esmeray whispered back, pain flared in her eyes. “And we don’t bring chaos on our families Esmeray. We don’t put our families in danger.” The moment the words left her lips Esmeray knew that she regretted them, Esmeray could see it in her mother's eyes but the damage was done. The echo. The emphasis. The ache. Her mother's words left in the air were heavy. Esmeray's breaths were shaky as she stepped away from her mother’s touch. Eyes tearing up, her mother shook her head frantically, trying to reach out to Esmeray but Esmeray stumbled back... The damage was already done. Mustering up her most determined expression a twelve years old could, swallowing constantly to keep the lump in her throat at bay Esmeray gazed at the oval portal that had a white fire burning around

The Vampire King Reclaiming His Lost Princess Epilogue
~Nothing Is Harder On A Soul Than The Smell Of Dreams While They Are Evaporating.~In her desperation, Esmeray looked at Amber. "Save me." Swallowing her pride the broken plea tumbled out of her lips.Amber gave Esmeray an uncertain look as if she wasn't sure how to react. The girl had a bruise forming on her cheek, there was a deep cut on her lower lip that was still bleeding, it was hard not to notice the streaks of drying blood that started from her upper lips and extended to her left cheek, a telltale of a nasty nosebleed. Even with a crown made of the finest gold on her head, the powerless trembling girl looked a world apart from the fierce woman the Vampire King had claimed as his bride and Queen on the altar. "What are you up to Almira?" Amber's voice was visibly startled when her flame-like gaze collided with the Vampire King who was on his knees. The side of his neck was bleeding while he held a sword at his own throat. 'Was the Vampire under an enchantment?' Ignoring the

'When Dreams Turn Into Nightmares.'An icy chill runs down Esmeray's spine. As she took a startled step back but before she could go any further she felt Lord Igor's harsh grip on her arm as he pushed her forward making her stumble into the room. "I kept my word. Here's the witch. Now it's time for you to keep your word and let my cousin go." Igor's words made Almira scoff. "You think I can't see the burning contempt in your soul for this abomination? You would have bought her to me even if I didn't hold the Vampire King hostage." "What do you want?" Esmeray sneered, hating the tremble in her voice. Even if Almira was talking to Igor her eyes were watching Esmeray with such intense curiosity that Esmeray felt like the old witch could see right inside her, see the chaos, the panicked beating of her heart. The fear~ All the sorcerers of the Sacred Land had one thing in common. The sorcerers had seen all the Elders except two. Vincent the Conqueror and Lady Almira. Lady Almira was re
The Vampire King Reclaiming His Lost Princess Jittery Intuition
Under the starry sky on the stage set in the middle of the Royal garden Raziel and Amell stared at Esmeray as she had her first dance with the King of Vampires who was now officially her husband. "Do you think we did the right thing?" Raziel asked his brother who was giving him company in the shadows, away from the preying ears and eyes. Raziel swallowed another sip of champagne from the crystal flute that threatened to break in his unforgiving grip, he had too much already but it still was not enough to endure the remaining hours of this ruse. "She is happy." Amell's statement was not enough to push the lingering doubts out of Raziel's mind. "The Vampire is going to admit his trade with Ascian. How do you think it will end up for everyone?" To calm his jittery intuition Raziel disclosed. "He is?" Amell smattered in shock. His eyes bounced between the newlywed couple and his brother. Clasping Raziel's arm in a warning grip Amell hissed under his breath. "Did you force the Vampire
The Vampire King Reclaiming His Lost Princess Royal Wedding
The vast gardens were illuminated with beautiful, soft candlelight, the round tables were covered in white cloth. Arrangements of roses in the darkest shade of red decorate each one, their scent thick in the humid night. The Vampire Kingdom's most prestigious allys and subjects were seated around the long aisle. Standing at the entrance of the royal garden Esmeray could make out the familiar figures of the Queen and King of Wastelands along with the Fey King seated at the front, closest to the altar. Her grandfather Aric King was missing and given his history with Vladimir Esmeray wasn't surprised at his absence. Esmeray belonged to their bloodline but they were nothing more than numerous strangers surrounding her tonight. "I wish Daddy was here. I miss him." Esmeray's voice was barely above a whisper as she felt a pang of longing in her heart. "Who said he is not here? Maybe he is among the stars staring down at you with a smile. He must be proud to see how far his little food fa
The Vampire King Reclaiming His Lost Princess Poop Legacy
"I can't feel my fingers." Esmeray's whining was accompanied by Amell's pained moan. "My back is killing me." After dealing with their end of the trade with the Dragon King the first thing they did was to transfer all the Dragon Gold from Esmeray’s old mansion to the Vampire Castle's secure Walt because it wasn't safe to leave the Gold out there after the Dragon King discovered that Esmeray had it in her possession. You can never trust a Dragon when it comes to Red Gold, they bloody protect it as their firstborn. Esmeray Raziel and Amell were sure once Aidan Draco was done dealing with his Mad Oracle he was going to come after Esmeray. "Did Aidan Draco find his bride?" Vladimir couldn't hold back his curiosity. "We don't know." Amell gave a careless shrug. "How could you not know? It was your trade to help the Dragon King find his bride." Vladimir asked instead of leaving the topic. And if there was anyone else in his place he would have done the same. Dragons were a specie th
The Vampire King Reclaiming His Lost Princess His Little Brother
Vladimir stared at the Royal attire he had never worn before with a slight curve of his lips. Two hours ago when Esmeray left with the two wizards it occurred to Vladimir that he couldn't just show up at his wedding in his typical formal black dress. So the first thing he did was to call the royal couturier to alter the royal attire that he had never worn in his life. The news of his marriage was made public just an hour ago. His subjects and Kingdom were in uproar at discovering that their King was finally seizing a Queen. Esmeray will be the first woman who will sit on the Vampire Queen's throne after Vladimir's mother's death. Vladimir had chosen the garden as a venue. The preparations outside the castle were on full swings. Vladimir could feel a mix of excitement and eagerness thrumming through his veins as everything started to fall into place on its own. "You are truly marrying her." The mocking sneer followed by the sound of throaty, gruff laughter filling the air pulled V
The Vampire King Reclaiming His Lost Princess Slimy Poison
Esmeray stirred at the feel of the faint touch of cold fingers against her skin. Despite her mind being covered in the thick fog of sleep she moaned at the sparks going off on her skin at a familiar touch. The pointed tips of her ears twitched at the sound of muffled sobs coming from her left, bringing her out of her sleep-hazed state. Esmeray opened her eyes, blinking them rapidly to adjust to the room's low light. The moment her sight focused her eyes fell on Vladimir's face. She frowned at the tears rolling down his face as he stared at her legs. Despair settled at the pit of her stomach as she realized Vladimir was examining her scars. It almost felt like a dream seeing the Vampire King in a trance as his fingers gently traced over the thick scared tissues hidden beneath the ink on her legs. "Do they still hurt?" Esmeray’s heart twisted in knots at hearing the tremble in his voice. Somehow Esmeray knew he was not talking about physical pain. Her wounds had healed a long time
The Vampire King Reclaiming His Lost Princess Vincent's Bride 2
The Fey King was the only Monarch Esmeray hadn't managed to piss off or taunted probably because he was not hostile towards her. By blood, the Fey King was Amber’s grandfather but the man had long ago banished his daughter who was the Rightful Hier to his throne when she had abandoned the Fey Throne by marrying the King of Beasts. But Esmeray didn't know how much of that information was true. "If you know her origin why don't you share it with all of us?" Aric reasoned. The beast residing in his soul wanted to know if the pull it felt towards Esmeray was by blood or because of compulsion. Esmeray exhaled a tiny breath, her chest twisted as she waited for the Fey King to disclose her secret but his next words surprised her. "Knowledge and secret hold power and a wise King never reveals information of his allies." The Fey King offered Esmeray a mischievous smile. "And you are allied with her, darling grandfather." Amber couldn't help but mock the Fey King. She couldn't believe that
The Vampire King Reclaiming His Lost Princess Vincent's Bride 1
"If anyone has a problem with my appearance then they are welcome not to look my way. We are not here to fit in or seek any validation from anyone. So kindly refrain from telling me where I belong or not. The three of us are here just to keep an eye on my groom for protection purposes." Esmeray spoke unfazed by her mother's taunt. "Why do you think the Vampire King needs your protection?" Aric King asked with genuine confusion. It was hardly believable that a man of Vladimir's reputation would need someone's protection. The Vampire was a walking unhinged hazard. "What can I say? It's heartbreaking to admit it out loud that the Vampire won't sleep with me before our marriage so I am forced to protect his dee dee till our wedding night." Esmeray let out with a rueful shake of her head making Aric bit back a smile. "You are making it sound like you are marrying me for my body." Even though his tone was bored Vladimir's cheeks turned flaming red at his little brat's words who was dete
