All Chapters of King of Darkness : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

The room the mage lay in is dark, damp, filled with the rustic smell of her blood. Its gloominess is bringing her down. Every part of her body ached. The chains biting into her wrists, cutting her skin, changing them raw.She is drained from the numerous bites HE took from her. She needs a plan soon. A plan that will make him release her.Henrietta, the mage, though she had everything under control. Within seconds she would be the most powerful in all five kingdoms. But one woman, only one woman made her well-laid plans go awry.Now she is stuck here in this psychos room, bound to the bedpost while he did sickening things to her that she never thought possible.She is past tears. With each passing day, she fears she cannot take much more of this torture. She needs to do something before HE finds another mage to help her and completely get rid of her.She thought she was up for the task when she became HIS lover. That it would be a child's play with

"Now what!" Willow thought, unknowingly saying it out loud."We will find out a way," Lothaire who sat beside her on the front seat of the truck replied calmly as he leaned back and relaxed."Yes, like that's going to happen""Relax, Tinkerbell. No need to stress. You will wrinkle that pretty face""You-""Could you please watch where you drive, woman?" Lothaire said loudly, getting her attention.Willow steered the vehicle in the nick of time just before it was about to collide with a tree."Sorry," Willow muttered."It's becoming a habit for you, doesn't it? You do it and then say sorry""Don't grumble vampire, I said sorry"They both kept quiet as Willow drove along. Tension rose in the ensuing silence, each lost in their own thoughts."Do you think the guy we met yesterday knows anything about the king?""No. Even if he does, he won't reveal. He would know by then Elite Parker's death. It's hard

Willow woke with a slowness, lethargic after their sexual prowess drained their energy, blissful yet weak.She felt like her eyelids glued to each other. She felt content. With a yawn, she shifted her body thinking to herself that she should change the hard mattress to a much softer tone.With one eye open, she tried to check the time that is usually placed beside her bed.Only, there is no clock, no bed for that matter. Nor is she in her room. Willow jerked upright, slightly wincing at the pain she felt in her lower region.God, it hurts.She then reminisced about the events that happened last night or early in the morning. How Lothaire has plowed yes literally plowed into her.Willow winced once again at her wanton behavior. She closed her eyes, cupped her face into her hands, and groaned loudly.A chuckle from her right made her stiffen. She peeked through the gap from her fingers to a smirking vampire who laid with his hands behin

Willow blinked rapidly as her mind played the scenes of her painful past. She thought she was past the stage of feeling pain. Past the stage of shedding tears. Yet, a few traitor tears slipped past her control.Looking at her tears, Lothaire felt the pain in his chest area that he thought long dead to tears. What is this woman doing to him? He wanted to grab her, wipe her tears and kiss those plump lips to make her better. But he restrained. She needs this. She needs to unburden her heart and he shall remain far. He clenched his fists tightly to stop them from doing what he wanted to do."Well, at that time I didn't grasp, but later when my mind cleared from the fog of grief, I realized that the murderer..." Willow's voice hitched at that word, the pain still new on her heart, "could be only a vampire," Willow wiped her tears with her right hand, feeling lighter."That's why you hate my kingdom, hate me," Lothaire stated, nodding his head, understanding her reas

Willow explained to him as she gathered all of her things from the flat and started packing.Lothaire's fists clenched."You are not coming with me," he said after a minute."No way in hell am I leaving you. Get used to it, Bones. Your skinny ass is stuck with me," Willow said stubbornly over her shoulder as she zipped the bag."It's too dangerous, woman. I won't let you," Lothaire grabbed the passing Willow and held her close to his chest. His eyes looking deeply into hers."News flash vampire. You are not my boss. Drug me, bind me, knock me out cold vampire, but you are not getting rid of me. I will still find a way to be with you until this end," Willow said in a husky voice, his proximity doing wonderful things to her body.Lothaire glanced at the way her chin turned upward. Stubborn to the core. He shouldn't take her with him, not after learning about the danger she will be in. However, he can't help himself but steal these precious mom
