Hives

The god of dreams forget to visit me that night, making me wide awake as I tossed myself around the chamber bed. What I saw that time was vivid. I was alive. I wasn't dreaming. It's too different from dreaming. What the hell am I even doing? I went to the balcony, and breathed in the night breeze. The silhouette of the branches touched the moon's yellowish orb. I stared at it longer than I should. I have never appreciated the moon. Or anything in this world before not until I was brought to this mansion, and Lord Minir taught me things. "So beautiful..." It might not be the only time I appreciated the moon for it's beauty. But I'm sure that it's the only time I actually think it's beautiful beyond words, beyond what I could think of. My eyebrows furrowed as I heard some movements inside the chamber. I went back and saw the books opened by the strong howls of wind, and the paper clipped by the pages was flown towards me. W

Unveiling

I averted my gaze from the heart-wrenching sight that unfolded before me as all the individuals involved were escorted to the infirmary for healing.They were making sounds of discomfort, contorting their bodies in an attempt to reach the source of their irritation caused by the constant itching and painful sensations. Despite the increasing anger that I felt stirring within me, a small pang of guilt also tugged at my conscience. I couldn't help but wonder if I was really to blame for what had happened. Perhaps it was all my fault as deep down, I had wanted it to happen to that person or people. This internal struggle between guilt and anger left me feeling conflicted. Lord Minir offered some comforting words to ease my worries as we strolled along the palace halls, where he had once resided and thrived. He assured me that everything was going to be alright and that there was no need to fret. His words were a balm to my anxious spirit. “Master…” “Yes, woman?” He sighed, nodding at

Burnt Truth

As I stood before them, an electrifying tension filled the air, for both the Queen and the King fixed their penetrating gazes upon me with an intensity that surpassed any mere curiosity. At that moment, their eyes conveyed a message, one that spoke of an overwhelming significance assigned to my presence. However, a subtle shift resided within their stares, an undercurrent of emotions that set them apart from ordinary intrigue. The Queen, known for her regal poise, displayed an uncharacteristic uneasiness, her once serene countenance now betraying traces of anxiety. In her eyes, a flickering fear danced, hinting at a deeper vulnerability. As for the King, a figure renowned for his unyielding authority, a touch of insidious yearning glimmered within his gaze. Together, their eyes became windows to a cl

Bounty

"Tell me the truth, woman. What the hell happened here?" Lord Minir inquired, his voice laced with urgency, as we stood together, observing the soldiers carrying away the peculiar lifeless bodies. I met his gaze, my mind occupied solely by the fabrications I had hastily concocted. "I woke up to find them there. Honestly, master, I have no knowledge of what occurred," I responded, my words a facade masking the truth. One of the soldiers approached us, offering an explanation that occurrences of this nature were not uncommon within the palace. It was suggested that perhaps it was a mere prank orchestrated by the palace children or some trivial matter that had been overlooked. The incident held little significance in their eyes. And why would this incident had any importance for them? For these vampires, helsings are j

Kiss

The events of the previous night faded away, leaving behind no trace of the fear-inducing incident or the looming bounty that had haunted me. All my anxieties and worries dissipated into thin air, replaced entirely by an overwhelming sense of longing. This longing was solely directed towards one thing—his kiss. It consumed me, overpowering any remnants of apprehension or doubt, and all I desired was to experience the touch of his lips upon mine. He moved away, pulling himself from the kiss. I gasped for air as I stared deep into his soulful eyes. He smirked. In the dimly lit chamber, I found myself standing before Lord Minir, his piercing silver eyes capturing my every breath. The air crackled with an electrifying tension, his voice dripping with a potent blend of devotion and danger. "Listen to me, bride," he began

Deserve You

As the first rays of the morning sun cascaded upon my face, I experienced a newfound sense of tranquility. The serenity enveloping the room was a stark contrast to the terror that had plagued the nights prior. As I shifted my gaze towards the spot where my master had been seated the night before, I realized he was nowhere to be found. It was an unusual sensation, one that held a distinct difference from the fear-ridden nights I had endured. In some inexplicable way, the encounter with Lady Catherine had left an indelible mark upon me, nurturing a lasting resentment toward her. Yet, paradoxically, I found myself no longer invested in her actions, as if a shift had occurred within me. Upon waking that morning, both Atlas and Gerber attended to me, blissfully unaware of the perilous circumstances I had faced the day prior. E
