The Vampire King 37
Valya raised her hand to her face and touched the scar with her fingers. Ira noted to herself that this was not the first time in recent times. The Oracle smiled sadly, looking into the fire and lost in her own thoughts.The evening filled the cave with summer, night coolness. A restless wind blew all day, creating a feeling of anxiety. Ira sat by the fireplace and read one of Valya's few books. Thin pages, yellowed with time, told the girl about the properties of medicinal herbs, their varieties and places of flowering. Ira did not so much try to remember what she read as understand that what the pages revealed to her was already known to her somewhere deep inside. But the girl could not remember how she knew this. So all that remained was to be content with the pleasant feeling of something familiar.The Oracle silently entered the cave. She laid out a new batch of herbs on the table and began to look for linen thread on the shelves so that she could tie the stems into bundles and h

- Quiet, my love. Now everything will be fine,” Kyrian smiled gently and left the cave, taking the winged girl with him.Blurry spots danced before my eyes. Ira heard voices. Male voices. They moved away.The girl rolled onto her side and grimaced. The body didn't listen well. Terrible weakness filled the muscles with lead, making any movement almost impossible. Each breath was given with incredible effort. Ira, breathing heavily, rose to all fours. Her head began to spin, and the brunette miraculously did not fall to the ground.Everything swam before my eyes. The girl did not immediately recognize the figure lying on the floor. The metallic smell of blood turned my head. The heartbeat quickened, sounding like an alarm bell in the chest, driving the pitiful remnants of blood through the dying tissues. Ira swallowed hard, trying to ignore the burning thirst choking her throat. The brunette slowly crawled towards the figure, realizing with horror that it was the wounded Valya.Sitting

“I don’t agree,” Felix said sternly.Tristan flushed.- What an idiot! Completely obsessed with his nobility! Didn't you hear my words?! – the vampire’s gaze flashed lightning.Felix clenched his fists and stubbornly raised his chin. Tantario walked around the mare and came face to face with the knight. He glared at his companion for a while, then turned sharply and walked away, straightening the gray shirt Felix had given him that was slipping off his shoulders. Since the knight was taller and more powerful than the blond, Tantario practically drowned in these clothes. It's a pity that his things turned into holey rags after an unsuccessful teleport. However, we can say thank you that only things were damaged, and not he himself was blown to pieces. There have been such cases.The sliding fabric revealed the blonde's pale shoulders. Felix took a closer look at them, paying close attention to the red, thin cuts covered in dried blood. These wounds were taking up too much of their time

-Have you come to your senses?Felix opened his eyes and saw the face of a vampire bending over him. The scarlet haze no longer spoiled the sky-blue irises of the eyes. The knight frowned, looking at the blond's body. On his bare neck were thin stripes of scars, which just a few minutes ago had been black and scarlet cuts.“Of course, I haven’t fully recovered,” Tristan noted, turning away from the man lying on the ground. Felix sat up slowly, fighting off the dizziness. - We'll repeat it tomorrow.The knight glared at his back.- Aren’t you too arrogant? – the man was indignant.Tristan turned around, looked at the young man over his shoulder and winked slyly.- After all, it's not so unpleasant, is it? You moaned earnestly.Felix flushed with indignation. Jumping to his feet, he grabbed the hilt of his new sword, which he acquired after losing his previous one during the battle with the snake.- You will drive me to white heat, vampire! – the knight cried, taking his weapon out of i
The Vampire King 41
“There are vampires among them,” Tantario muttered dryly through his teeth.- Vampires cooperate with people?! – the brown-haired man whispered dumbfounded. Tristan was also unpleasantly surprised. He thought that vampires would never stoop to playing war games with people.The line of warriors wavered, and a tall woman came out to meet the guys. She was wearing a tight-fitting scarlet suit with a fur collar, high red boots and a black and gold cloak, on which the design of a bloody rose stood out clearly. Long scarlet hair was pulled into a high ponytail. Hazel eyes looked at the strangers mockingly and somewhat arrogantly.- So so so. “Wow, what kind of people we have here,” the woman spoke in a chesty, languid voice that caused a pleasant shiver. “I didn’t think that anyone would be interested in this ancient pagan temple.”- What's strange about this? – stepping forward, Tantario took the floor. - Is it forbidden to be in Two Moons?“It is forbidden for us to have free vampires in

He didn't immediately understand what was happening. The first thing that came to mind was the fact that he drinks sugary blood. He had never tasted such deliciousness before. Taking a hesitant sip, he felt a wave of bliss run through his body. Hands clutched the hilt of the sword. Someone's weak, cold fingers frantically grabbed at him, trying in vain to tear his hands away from the weapon.He abruptly broke away from his victim and, looking into the blue eyes of the vampire, clouded with pain, was horrified.“Tristan,” Onyx whispered, not believing what he saw.“It turned out to be you after all,” the blond croaked, spitting out blood. - And I thought I was crazy.William looked down and saw a sword blade protruding from the lord's chest. Where the unusual steel came into contact with the body, the skin turned black with dried blood. Tears of despair sparkled in the brunette's eyes, which had returned to their dark color.- Why?! Why did this happen?! – he shouted in despair.-You h

The knight squinted, looking at the unusual letters.- So everything is clear here! – Felix exclaimed.The vampires' eyebrows shot up synchronously.-Can you read this? – Tristan was surprised. It was difficult for him to believe that a person knew a language unknown to vampires.- This is an ancient lunar one. We studied it at the paladin academy.-Are you also a paladin? – no longer hiding his surprise, Tristan soared.“Unsuccessful, unfortunately,” Felix smiled sadly, turning to the blond. – But this is a long story. And this is what is written here:“When you enter there, forget who was and is.Do not touch, since there is darkness in the heart, there is no honor.Only by dying and living again,Your truth will reveal this world.”It's simple. If we go there, our lives will change forever. And if we come in with an unclean heart, it will be... bad, in general,” the knight cheerfully told his friends.Felix then lightly pushed the door open and stepped forward without thinking. Tri

Mountains. Huge, majestic, they stretched beyond the horizon. A misty haze shrouded their peaks, creating a feeling of mystery. A clear silver-gray sky crashed into the scarlet-black horizon line - it seemed as if the awkward artist had brushed the cans of paint onto the canvas with his hand, creating this abrupt but amazingly beautiful transition.The sun was rising. The rays of the awakening star colored the earth, and the mountains flared with a bright violet-purple color.A cold wind was blowing. William looked at this beauty with a sinking heart, not believing that there could be such a magnificent place on earth. Looking down at the plain at the foot of the mountain, his breath caught. How high!The soil underfoot was an unusual lilac-violet color. William bent down and picked up one of the small pebbles that had broken off from the mass. The young man spent some time admiring the smooth surface of the fragment, which glittered under the sun’s rays with all the colors of the rai

The Vampire King Epilogue
Ira was sitting in the clearing. Leaning back, the girl watched the clouds passing in the sky. The world has changed a lot in recent years. The chosen one surrendered to her memories, closing her eyes and enjoying the warm rays of the autumn sun.All the horrors ended six years ago, when William destroyed Vragenn, and the combined forces of humans and vampires defeated the tyrant’s army. William, as the one who killed the Lord, was supposed to ascend to the throne of the king and lead the vampires, but the brunette did not even want to hear about it. That day, the winged young man seemed even more detached than before. Telvisina assumed the position of ruler, receiving the blessing of the human king and discussing the best ways of trade and cooperation between the two peoples.Since then, the way of life of vampires has changed greatly, and peaceful coexistence with humans has affected all of Lygyria.Tristan refused the offered honor of being chief advisor and agreed only to attend t

Staring at the silent ceiling, he renounced his thoughts from what was happening. Blood flowed down the back and legs from numerous wounds on the body and wings, and at the sites of the bites the pain radiated through a hot pulsation. The young man no longer had the strength to resist. The enemy's tenacious fingers held him tightly by his hair, not allowing him to move. William's heart was sad and bitter.“Do we really have no chance of winning?” - a heavy thought flashed. The contented rumbling of the feasting vampires rang in my ears.“Lilith,” William whispered barely audibly. He put all his desire and burning melancholy into this call. The image of the goddess he met in the Violet Mountains appeared in his mind's eye. And then - her tender kiss in the sanctuary. Lilith gave him her favor, which he would never even dare to hope for.His heart began to beat wildly with joyful anticipation - William felt how the goddess of the Black Moon responded to his call.“You called me,” the mo

The chosen one picked up the hem of her chic dress and looked out the door. The girl's heart trembled in her chest with excitement - very soon she would be free and meet Tristan! A mixture of fear and shame overwhelmed the Chosen One. How can she tell her beloved that the king's spawn is wearing? How can she survive this moment? This pain in blue eyes?.. Will they live to see each other, or will they fall, unable to hug each other again?The armed vampires who found themselves in the corridor did not allow the girl to drown in sad thoughts. The Chosen One could not miss such an opportunity to help her friends. Ira allowed herself to be caught up in the rage of battle. Mentally imagining her friends fighting, the girl sank her claws into the first vampire she came across. The rest froze, not daring to attack the king's chosen one - everyone in the castle knew that Ira could not be laid a finger on. The Chosen One took advantage of the inhibited state of her enemies and rushed forward.

Felix, in full battle garb, sat astride his trusty war stallion. The hawk danced impatiently on the spot, sensing the imminent arrival of the battle. The paladin held the reins tightly in his hands, restraining his horse, and from time to time he glanced with admiration at the rider nearby. It was the king of Ligiria - Edwin himself. It never would have occurred to Felix that he would lead an entire army, especially on a par with the ruler! The young man swallowed - on the eve of such a significant battle he was noticeably nervous. The king turned his head to the hero of Kermalan and patted him on the shoulder encouragingly. Edwin inspired respect and admiration with just his appearance: a tall, strong man of about forty with piercing light brown eyes and a shock of dark brown hair. A neat beard made him look more impressive and menacing, but small wrinkles around his eyes indicated that that this person knows how to sincerely smile and enjoy life. From the very first meeting, Edwin f

Ira tried to drive away the annoying “nurse”: she swore, screamed and fought, but to no avail. The ancient vampire was strong, reasonable, and did not succumb to her provocations. This angered and upset the girl, driving her to despair.“Creature,” Ira stopped opposite the Duke. Angrily pursing her lips into a thin stripe, the girl glared at the disgruntled vampire with her emerald gaze.- Come on, use it!- No, honey. You know how much our Lord values you now.- How strong? - Ira purred, looking sarcastically into the vampire’s yellow eyes.“Strongly,” the Supreme One muttered through his teeth.- Oh, really that much? - Ira turned on her heels and went to the dressing room. Opening the carved doors of the closet, the girl began to take out Vragenn's camisoles and trousers. Having collected a bunch of the king’s most expensive, and therefore most beloved clothes, Ira headed out of the room.- What are you planning? - the confused duke ran after the girl. - Ira, stop immediately...

“It was a difficult time,” Selena’s voice trembled with melancholy. “Many of my children gave their lives to buy us time.” For the first time, my sister and I combined our Powers and defeated Anur. But by that time there were too many bloodsuckers. They multiplied like a plague. Without their creator, they did not pose a fatal threat, but they could no longer become human,” Selena affectionately stroked the dark-eyed goddess on the head. - Lilith, considering herself to be to blame for what happened, spent a lot of Power to return the “infected” to reason and the ability to control themselves. And those who managed to take on their new appearance became children of the night, now called “vampires.” They have a lot in common with the seraphim, because their ancestors had similar energy. The need to drink blood remained, but it could be controlled enough so as not to cause suffering to anyone.The story of Lilith became an example for the other gods of the Heavenly Palace: that everyone

Tristan Tantario also fulfilled his role in their company, and did it brilliantly. But the young man himself often became irritated or, conversely, withdrawn into himself. Once Tantario even threw a ball at the castle, ostensibly to cheer up his guys, but in reality to calm himself down. William found out about the celebration much later, and rushed through the portal into the castle, wanting to give the stupid lord a thrashing. The adviser was worried that the Lord would not be alone in bed... but instead he found Tristan lying on the bed with a bottle in his hand. The vampire thoughtlessly looked at the ceiling and from time to time kissed his neck.William walked up to the bed and, after a short struggle, took the bottle from the blond. Tristan remarked indignantly:- Hey, nanny, leave me alone for just one evening! - after thinking, Tantario pulled a smile from ear to ear: - Or join me.William put the bottle down and hovered over the lord, crossing his arms over his chest.- It's

“So that’s how it is,” Ilyana said quietly when the knight brought his story to the end. - The world has turned upside down...Felix nodded.- Yes. Now we need to save Ira and destroy the vampire king.Ilyana shuddered.- This will be a very difficult task... The Lord is strong.- But we have to! - exclaimed the knight. - There is no other way! I am ready to sacrifice my life for a just cause.The girl smiled sadly and gently touched the knight's hand with her fingers. The young man looked into the bright, melancholy eyes of his beloved.“I just found you,” Ilyana whispered quietly. - Do I really have to lose you again?- Of course not! – Felix was indignant. He rushed forward and grabbed the girl in his arms.“At least don’t crush the unfortunate woman with your carcass,” a mocking voice rang out.Turning around, Ilyana saw a disheveled blond man standing on the porch in a casually unbuttoned shirt. The wound on his stomach left only a whitish scar. The girl stepped back from Felix a

royal clanThe royal apartments consisted of a series of rooms. Vladyka walked through a small hallway and opened the doors to a huge bedroom. Gesturing Ira to enter, the king grabbed two glasses, filled them with wine and handed one of them to the girl. Sitting down on a chair upholstered in red velvet, the vampire crossed his legs and took a sip of wine. Ira remained standing with a glass in her hand, without touching the treat.- I thought you were dead. - Vragenn finally stated. - And I'm glad that's not the case.Without waiting for any reaction from Ira, the king continued:- This may sound strange, but I missed you. Those nights that we shared... you are so passionate...Ira pursed her lips. Her breath hitched with indignation. But the girl continued to silently glare at the Lord with a hateful gaze.- Yes, you really are the Chosen One. Even Kyrian cannot reject my control, and you do it with ease, as if I were not your creator at all.The vampire drained his glass and put it
