- Didn’t Selena tell you anything interesting? - Ignoring the pain, Vragenn grinned.Tristan frowned, stepping aside.“Our conversations are none of your business,” the blond snapped.The brass knuckles came together with a ringing sound, but now the Lord was more careful, and his furious attacks drove Tristan in a circle. The advisors watching the duel and Telvisina, who was held by Alter’s elbow, held their breath every time it seemed to them that one of the duelists had managed to break through the opponent’s defense.Tristan began to get tired. The Lord was clearly in shape thanks to the fact that he constantly drank human blood - Tristan did not have this privilege. From the powerful attacks of his opponent, his right hand, gripping the rest of the brass knuckles, went numb from tension. But what irritated the lord most of all was the satisfied grin on the king’s face. What was this creature up to?“Apparently, your goddess did not consider you worthy of the truth, Tristan,” Vrag
“No,” William said coldly. “There will be no more mercy for people like you.” - And with these words he pushed the Chosen One out the window. Kirian tried to grab the curtains, but under his weight they broke from their hinges, and he fell out of the window. The adviser pulled the blade out in time so that it would not fall off along with the body.The final, desperate cry of the Chosen One cut through the sky...William fell to his knees, exhausted. The pleasant heaviness of the wings was soothing, but he spent a lot of energy manipulating them. And he still needs to take the Saint away from here. Someone might have noticed the “fascinating” flight of the Chosen One. My hands trembled treacherously. Her hair, tied in a bun for convenience, had become disheveled and strands had bunched up around her face. William straightened his hair, allowing himself a moment of respite. Rising to his feet, the young man wiped the blood from the sword and returned it to its sheath.William turned to
Tristan did not dare to go to Vragenn for a long time. He could not understand why the goddess did not dare to reveal the secret of his past? After all, then Vragenn would be dead and the war would be over. These thoughts came again and again, and each time Tristan sighed, realizing that Selena probably had her reasons for such an act.The blond admired the sleeping Ira. Recently, his beloved had been working a lot and was very tired. Now the girl was sleeping peacefully, although the sun was just setting towards the horizon. The sunset rays cast sharp shadows on her face, making her features more mature. Tristan leaned down and gently touched Ira's cheek with his lips.“I’ll be back soon,” the vampire whispered.The corners of the Chosen One’s lips twitched - she heard her lover’s voice. Tristan stood up decisively and headed to the stable. If he is lucky, he will have time to find out the long-awaited truth and return before dawn, killing Vragenn. Then Ira won't have to worry about
The girl turned to the king. A sharp blade immediately appeared at her throat. Alter's face was gloomy and concentrated.“How wild you are, my girl,” Vragenn purred. - But we've had enough fun. Now you will have to obey me! - the king leaned forward and looked intently at the girl, using his rank as Overlord to crush Aira’s will and force her to obey.- Burn in eternal flame, bastard! I will never bow before you! - Ira leaned forward, clenching her fists forcefully. The smell of blood awakened the beast in her, bestowing terrifying power. Now she could tear everyone present into pieces without much effort.The Lord leaned back and smiled. He still failed to subjugate the girl. He was not mistaken in sensing the hidden Power in Ira. It was her that he had been looking for since he heard his sister's prediction. And if the king cannot conquer the girl in the usual way, he will have to resort to cunning.- You're right. “I have no power over you,” Vragenn spoke defeated, but the expressi
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
“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
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
“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
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...
