“Don’t fucking touch me!” I yell at Asher as he reaches his hand out towards me, the magical fire in his hand leaping beside me, igniting the candle that was on the bedside table.

“I don’t think you understand what’s going on here.” Asher sneers, “You aren’t in control here. You’re my captive. Mine to do what I want, when I want with.”

“Touch me and Nikolai will shred you to pieces.” I yell spitting at his feet in disgust.

“Your mate isn’t coming for you, your highness. He’s lost control of his vampire. Soon he will be a ghoul without any care in the world.”

I feel a shiver run through my body at the thought of Nikolai turning into a ghoul. Goosebumps cover my entire body. No, I wouldn’t begin to stray down that path. Nikolai was strong, both physically and mentally. He had watched his mother go down the path of destruction. Nikolai wouldn’t allow himself to wander down the same path.

“If you think that, then you truly don’t know my mate.” I hiss out leering at the Alpha.
