บททั้งหมดของ King of Vampires: บทที่ 61 - บทที่ 70

I said goodbye to Kane and Sacha, hugging them as Sacha whispered in my ear"I hope the bastard would let us visit you or let us visit you".I chuckled at that. I didn't even know where his house was, so I doubt he would let them visit.Jacob liked his privacyOr he was overly security conscious."I would talk to you guys everyday".Kane faked a sniffle, "oh my. You're going to be having sex with the hottest man on planet Earth. I'm so jealous of you right now".I gave him a look and he stopped his whining, his eyes laughing at me."Would you like to trade positions?""I would", his eyes glinted. "But the king of vampires doesn't want me. He wants your banging hot bod".I shook my head, "Jacob doesn't want me. Like want me want me. I'm like a notch in his trophy or the daughter of the man who owes him millions of dollars…", I trailed off, because that was exactly my situation.Kane rolled his eyes at me and I frowned, "Don't you think you'll be in a body bag dumped in an alley by now?

2"We don't have all day", Jacob let out harshly, his eyes still transfixed on mine, hot and soul searing.I took the seat next to Sydney, wondering who the rest of the seats were for. I was just trying to keep my mind from the intimidating presence at the head of the table.The door opened and Alec entered, dressed in his usual garb, a black vest with dual scabbards cross attached at the back and black cargo pants.Who wore swords to a meeting?His eyes looked hard as he quickly took a seat next to Claude.I would love to know their story.What inspired their loyalty? What inspired them to stick by Jacob?I protect those who are under my wings.Jacob's words came back to me and I subtly glanced at him from under my lashes, my heart skipping an abnormal number of beats as I studied his clean face. His high cheekbones, his smooth skin, his arched brows, his hair that my hands itched to touch and that mouth.I wanted that mouth all over me."Dalia", a voice sounded and I broke out of m

Attorney Jim Toole was not in his office, so we were heading to his home in the heart of the city. Driving at a blinding speed, I held the seat belt to my chest as Claude drove past stoplights in his red Audi, winding past cars like a maniac as he throttled on."I think the whole point is to be alive by the time we get there", I gritted out as Claude took an unplanned swerve, causing me to hit my head against the windowpane and I winced, turning to glare at Claude.The smug bastard shrugged and took another unplanned swerve, "We need to get there if we are hoping to prevent another casualty".I sat back, he was right.The ambulance had whisked Judge Locke's body away and the police had locked off his office as a crime scene, but not before I grabbed all the papers, the ones that looked substantial and stuffed them into my tote.I had shown Claude the note and his eyes had deepened in their depths with a ferociousness. Hence why he was driving like a maniac to get to Attorney Toole.

"Or would you like it removed for you?" Jacob drawled with a delicate arch of his eyebrows.Fuck, this was exactly why they thought humans were dumb as rocks. How did the senator believe he could bring in a recording device to a meeting?A meeting with vampires for fuck's sakeThe senator grumpily brought out the little beeping device from his inner coat and set it into Alec's outstretched hands."Your phone too", Jacob added mockingly and I witnessed the senator's pudgy face go red with embarrassment.Or was it lividity?He most certainly had no right to be angry that he was stupid."Are we done with the harassment?", The senator asked, breathing rather loudly."Of course", Jacob smiled, playing the perfect host. "If you'd be so kind as to take the seat to my right", he offered.The senator walked, more like gobbled, over to the offered seat, eyeing not suspiciously before slumping on it.I kid you not when I say slumped. Like his legs were literally too small to carry his body wei

It had happened before, dhampirs mostly didn't need anchors but the modern world had made it seem so with the change.With dhampirs at a certain age, the vampire dna that had been reticent suddenly became dominant and began fighting the body.That's when the dhampir decides to take an anchor to go through with it or fight the pain and see which side won out.As in Dalia's case.I watched her. The fiery kitty, so still and stable in her sleep. My loins tightened and my body called for her as a voice in my head whispered, 'true mate'What?Hell, no.I was not going to accept the claiming.The door opened and my uncle stood in the doorway to Dalia's room Looking glum and livid.He let himself in, not saying a word as he too faced Dalia."Her body doesn't stand a winning chance", my uncle said calmly, no trace of the anger I had spied on his face.I said no words, the outcome of the Council meeting rolling in my head. Those stubborn old fads.The whole lot of them were useless. A threa
