Trinity

He had the driver take us to the hospital next, and I signed the documents with the clerk at the front desk, who seemed to be completely disinterested in being even a little kind.

He rolled his eyes and started processing the paperwork when I asked for a payment plan.

“If you can’t pay it, then we’ll transfer him. We only give treatment after we’ve been paid.”

My stomach churned. The person who called me from my father’s phone seemed shocked. I heard the doctors tell me that they’d put him on the schedule for the next hour for his operation because I had given them the authorization. The clerk said nothing more about it.

I couldn’t believe this was all happening. It would take a few days for the funds to clear my account, but I didn’t care. It would probably take a few days for them to process the payment, and even if it only took them a day, my bank would probably front the money as soon as they verified the source of it.

I was waved over to the waiting room, and I hoped t

    Trinity Mark got back into the city a few hours after he called based on his text message. I wanted to ask where he’d been, but I didn’t get a chance, and based on how he’d left, I doubted he would tell me. Maybe it had something to do with my case, but I had a feeling that if that were the case, he would have just told me. I took a taxi back to his house, where he said we’d meet. His patrol car was parked in front, so I headed inside. The scent of alcohol and blood was faint in the air. I closed the door and walked into the living room. I found him lying across the couch with his feet up and an ice pack on his head. He was shirtless in just a pair of pants. I hadn’t ever realized how chiseled he was. It had been years since I’d seen him shirtless. He wasn’t the little boy down the hall anymore but a full-grown man. The more I thought about it, the more I wondered why I didn’t find him more attractive. It wasn’t that he wasn’t attractive. He was pretty handsome, but I felt no stir

    Lucianus It was time to take her blood again. I was meant to pick her up. I had never imagined meeting the man she was living with. His hostility filled the air between us, along with the scent of his blood. I looked him over with a curious eye. He looked like he’d gotten into an accident, but there was the lingering scent of metal on him, like a knife and wood. More than that, his eyes narrowed at me with such suspicion, and his presence gave me pause. This human was much more than he seemed.“Please come in,” Trinity said, checking her phone. “I guess I lost track of time… I thought it was tomorrow?”“Later today,” I said. “I am simply early.”She smiled with relief and nodded, stepping aside to welcome me into the house. I stepped into the house, eyeing Mark, who stumbled back and away from me, still grasping his gun. He hobbled away as Trinity closed the door behind me, and he disappeared around the corner. The house was simple, clean, and a bit bare. Mark’s scent was faint in

    TrinityLucian stood as I adjusted my bag. Mark came back with a plate full of food and sat down, glaring at Lucian. “When will you be back?” Mark asked stiffly. “Soon,” I said and shook my head as my phone rang. It was the hospital. I turned away. “I’ve got to take this. We can go right after.”“Of course,” Lucian said, seemingly relaxed in his set. Lucian didn’t seem bothered, but there was definitely tension between the two of them. I sighed and shook my head. I couldn’t do anything about it right now. I answered the phone. “Hello?” “Is this Trinity?”“Yes.”“I’m calling about your father. He’s woken up.”I gasped and turned to look at Lucian. “I’ll be there soon.”I shoved my phone into my pocket and grabbed my jacket before turning to Lucian and Mark. “Could we make a stop at the hospital? Dad’s woken up.”Mark stopped midbite and looked at me. “I could take you.”“You need rest,” I said, shaking my head. “And I was already heading out. We can go together later. I’ll call yo

    Trinity I couldn’t help it. I loved him. There was no escaping that fact anymore. I couldn’t even explain how much or why, just that I did. I pulled back to look up at him. There was something in his eyes that I couldn’t place, like a little flicker of knowledge that might mean the end of me. I shivered at the thought. The dream flashed behind my eyes. He nipped my lip. “It will be too dark to remain out here soon.”I nodded. “We should…”Go? Stay? I wasn’t even sure what I wanted to say anymore, but I knew that I didn’t want to be apart from him. Not now when everything was changing. Not when everything had changed.“Stay the night with me,” he said against my lips.The heat in his voice and the desire in his eyes made my legs weak. I worried my lip. I wanted to hesitate, maybe to slow down, but I had lost so much already. I had hesitated before, so I shouldn’t hesitate now. He led me back to the shore, and we gathered our things. My heart was still racing as I followed him back

    Lucianus It had been so easy to seduce her. So easy to push and prod her fragile human heart. I didn’t even have to use the blood-slave bond to make her willing. She’d been excited by the prospect of giving herself to me. Had I realized this back at the resort, I would have had her that night with her full knowledge of the event. It didn’t matter now. Hearing her say she loved me sent a thrill of triumph through me. She was gullible. So easy to manipulate just like all humans. The sound of her voice saying those words stirred up memories that warmed me, yet that feeling felt so far away. Unlike before, I knew she wasn’t my wife. I had full control of my mind, my powers, and my memories. She was a pretty little trinket. A human. A food source in a beautiful container. And just like all humans, she had been so easy to manipulate, so willing to give herself over to me for money and sex. I licked my lips as I walked away from the house towards the car. It wouldn’t take much longer be

    TrinityAfter spending so many days with Lucian, I thought I should wait at least a day before trying to contact him since we last saw each other. But it had been three days. The car that came to take me to the lab the next time I was due to give blood was empty. The driver drove me there and back without a word, but I never saw Lucian. He didn’t call. He didn’t text. Was everything okay? Maybe something had happened to him. Maybe he was just busy. I knew he had feelings for me. I felt it in the way that he had sex with me over and over again, but he’d never said it. A pang of doubt went through me. I had been with guys before who had slept with me, pretended to like me, and then never contacted me again after they got what they wanted from me. I thought Lucian was different, given everything he’d done for me, but maybe I was wrong. Maybe he was just taking advantage of my feelings. Maybe he’d gotten exactly what he wanted out of me and now he was done. Or maybe he was just going

    Lucianus I waited for a time, keeping track of Stella, and waiting for her to make her move. She may not be human, but she was just as stupid as many of them if she thought that I wasn’t going to keep a close watch on her and just trust that my threat was enough. My wife told me more often than not that once Stella had decided to do something, there was almost no stopping her, even if it was a bad idea. She turned and headed out of the park. I glided through the shadows, following her silently for the rest of the night as she went around the city. I followed her this way for three days. She wasn’t active during the day, but she moved her place of rest seemingly sporadically. There was a hotel, a few apartment buildings, and a few houses that she frequented, but most of the nights, she spent her time wandering around the city. For a while, I thought she was simply lost and looking to learn the layout. She captured someone to feed on and dumped their body carelessly in an alley. I a

    TrinityI struggled to my feet and ran. I didn’t know where I was running or for how long I ran, but no matter how I ran, I couldn’t get the sight of him tearing into those men out of my mind. I could still smell the blood gushing out onto the sidewalk. I could still hear the crunching of bone. My chest felt tight as I panted, trying to get as far away as I possibly could. I reached a major street. Cars zipped by. People filled the streets. The lights of the streets and buildings filled my eyes. I was safe for now. But how long would that last? Mark had warned me, hadn’t he? And I hadn’t listened. He wasn’t human. More than that, he was likely the person who murdered the former dean. My stomach turned. He hadn’t looked human at all. He hadn’t looked like the man I’d kissed at the lake. He looked like a monster—a vampire. I shuddered. How could I have fallen in love with a vampire? A demon?More importantly, what was I going to do now? What could I do? Confront him? Pretend I didn

    TrinityToday, I walked down the hall. Luke was off somewhere with a tutor, and I was taking a moment for myself. It wouldn’t be long. Today was the day. “Trinity,” the man called from within his study. “Come here for a moment.”I frowned and turned, entering the room. He was reclined in a chair by the fire. He sounded so tired, but he had been sounding more and more tired the closer we got to the day. He looked up with a smile and reached out his hand to me. I took it and sat beside him. “Now that the day is here… I find myself unable to keep this from you.”I frowned and looked up at him. “What do you mean?”“The child I spoke of, the woman I loved….” His lips twitched. “The truth of why you are here in the first place. I would have liked to tell Lucianus this directly, but that is not to be.”I frowned and looked up at him. “I have already told Luke,” he said gently. “I imagine that he will be a bit morose not having grandfather around.”He chuckled. “Give him something sweet,

    TrinityI wailed as I watched the light and awareness fade from his eyes. He went slack in my arms. “No!” I cried. “Lucian, you can’t leave me! Wake up! Wake up!”Something shuffled nearby. I turned to look and saw Mark. He was covered in wounds. He looked terrible, but he lifted his gun and aimed at me. His hand shook. His eyes narrowed at me even as they filled with tears. “Mark…” I whispered.His jaw trembled. The gun went still as he glared at me. Tears slid down his cheeks as he dropped his gaze to Lucian in my arms. I didn’t know why. He said nothing. Then, he lowered his arm to his side, staring at Lucian for a few more moments. Without a word, he turned around and left, trudging through the forest alone. Relief filled me the farther away he got, but as I turned to look down at Lucian, I couldn’t even enjoy it. He wasn’t moving. His eyes stared out into nothing. I was alone more than I ever had been before. My dad was dead, and the man I loved was dead. I felt a pulsing i

    Lucian“Trinity?” Mark called. I watched her. She didn’t move for a long time. It was as if she couldn’t hear or see us, but then she shot to her feet and went running into the forest. “Fuck!” Mark yelled, running after her. I took the lead and grabbed him before he ran into her line of attack. She lunged at one of the vampires nearby, tearing into his throat. Another screamed and tried to attack her. Mark fired on him, turning him into a burst of blue flame. “Traitor!” They sneered. “We’ll kill you here!”One of them ran at me. The other ran toward Mark, and the third was trying to get Trinity off the vampire she was currently devouring. I dodged the one that lunged after me and rushed toward Trinity. I snatched the other out of the air and slammed him into the ground, recognizing him as a member of the royal family. I caved in his chest with a vicious sneer, glad to be rid of him and hoping to be rid of the rest of the royal family by the end of the night. I couldn’t help but thi

    LucianVash as she preferred to be called, turned out to be more helpful than I expected. I dealt with the idiotic church members and managed to thwart their intentions for the vampires I had murdered, and I managed to replenish my strength with their blood. There were several trucks worth of them around. Most of them knew nothing about how the church was using vampire blood to strengthen hunters and give them abilities, but I had a feeling that it wouldn’t matter. If the Blood Ancestor was smart, he had launched an attack on the church already, and there would only be these few operatives in the field to worry about in the future. I felt something tug on my mind from a distance, and resisted. It was the Blood Ancestor I knew, trying to find me, trying to compel me to return. If he were furious and wanted a fight over Trinity, I would need my strength. So, I drank from every church member I found on my way towards where I could feel Trinity. By the time I had started to feel a litt

    TrinityMark picked me up and carried me into another section of the forest. I heard Vash on the phone talking to someone behind us. “The church is on the way. They’ve lost a guy already.”“It’s Lucian,” Mark said, panting as he carried me forward. “He’s coming. I… I can’t tell how far, but he’s headed our way.” I tried to turn back to see. I wanted to call out, but I closed my mouth. Now wasn’t the time if the look on Vash’s face was anything to go by. “We’re going to run into trouble soon,” Vash said. “I can’t reach the other forces from the church.”Mark stumbled to one side and crouched down. His grip on me slipped, and I slid down his back onto the ground. The dizziness hadn’t stopped, but having had a bit of time to rest, I felt a little better. Vash shoved me aside and forced Mark to turn toward her. “Fuck,” she cursed. “Cut the link, Mark. Cut it now!”“I…. I can’t,” he said breathlessly. Blood started to trickle out of his nose. “He can’t.”Vash went still, and she clench

    LucianI watched droves of vampires leave through the gate that had opened. With the gate opened, I could feel Trinity’s state of mind easier. She was frightened, but she didn’t seem to be in danger. A spike of terror rippled through her, and I went stiff. I pushed power into our bond, trying to see what was happening. But all I got were flashes of fear. I saw Mark’s face. I heard gunfire and that woman’s voice shouting orders. There was worry and I pulled on my connection to Mark, trying to get a better sense of what was going on. As I expected, Mark’s vision was clearer. His mind was calmer as he pulled Trinity down a set of dark stairs and started running. There was a sense of urgency. I could hear him counting at a slow, steady pace as they ran. The woman came up behind her and then went past him. I tried to hold on to the connection, but there was too much information coming in across the distance. It stretched and thinned. The only constant thing was Trinity’s fear and the od

    TrinityI sat on a really uncomfortable chair as the other two hunters pulled up outside and began to pour stuff on the ground. Mark and Vash left me alone in what seemed to be the living room and went into the room at the back of the little house. I went to the window and watched the two other hunters stab silver knives and forks into the ground. They threw water around and chanted, holding their crosses. I guess it was something like blessing the ground. Watching them made me a little queasy. I leaned against the window and looked out into the night. For a moment, I thought I saw Lucian’s glowing red eyes, but a moment later, they vanished. I pressed my hand to my stomach, still amazed. I was pregnant. Lucian and I were going to be parents together. I wondered what vampire marriages were like. A flash of beautiful fabric and two ornate goblets filled my mind. I shuddered and tried to push the memory away. Whatever that memory was about. It didn’t matter. Nothing else mattered but

  • The Vampire King's Abused Human Mate   Chapter 57

    LucianIt was a dangerous game I was playing. I had no idea what would happen to Trinity while she was pregnant. However, I couldn’t help but be a bit excited. My wife and I… never got the chance to have children. We hadn’t been married long enough to try for children when she’d been murdered. I left the hospital, hovering above it and waiting. Soon, the cars headed out, carrying Trinity away from the building. I followed, unsurprised that they were going to Mark’s house. I waited to see where they would take her soon. I made sure to push the need for Trinity to keep the child through our bond. Soon, I saw them moving through the rooms of the house and preparing to leave. Mark’s car pulled out of the driveway and headed down the street. Soon after, the other two hunters went to the car down the street and followed. They drove out of the city and into the woods to a small wooden cabin that couldn’t have been built by the church. Other than the silver each of them carried, there wasn’

    TrinityThe drive back to Mark’s house was quiet. They put me in the back seat, and Vash was in the front beside Mark, looking out the window and blowing cigarette smoke out the window. The other two hunters parked down the street and went to the house. When they said it was clear, Mark drove into the garage and parked. He walked me into the house, and Vash went outside with the other two to do something. I could still smell blood in the air, but the vampire bodies that had been there were gone. “Vash, did the church send a clean-up crew here?” Mark asked into his radio.“No,” Vash said. “Unless someone else called it in.”He cursed. “We’ll reconvene about it. The bodies are gone… just like in the clearing.”He turned to me, but I couldn’t look at him. “I’m going to kill Lucian, Trinity.”I glanced at him. “No, you won’t.”“You think he’s stronger than the church?” Mark asked. I set my jaw and stood up. “I think it won’t matter.”“If it comes to it,” Mark started. “Would you let h
