All Chapters of Mated To The King Of Darkness: Chapter 121 - Chapter 130

"If we were to kill you, Lady Zezi and that is if," Delice said calmly, emphasizing the massive impossibility of that. With the mark of the King that she now carried, it would be easier for him to sense if she was in any kind of danger way faster than before. "Do you really think your death would kill the King or make him sink into eternal depression? His Majesty would be out for blood. His grief will not be a quiet one." Her voice trembled and the look in her eyes showed that she remembered something that she didn't want to. Maybe it had to do with the war during the Dark Times. Valerick had fought his father to end it, they must have seen him at his most feral state during the battle.With the way her face looked extra pale and the way she gulped down the rest of the blood in the goblet, Zezi was sure that would be something she didn't want to experience."Also, you might not know this but I do not want to lose my friend. I will have no one to visit my son's grave with if you are

Valerick must have felt her shock, his eyes widened slightly, and his hold around her tightened. "Is everything okay?"Zezi blinked, her hands falling from his waist.Damn whatever spark that was spiraling under her skin, couldn't it get the message that she was in trouble right now?"I just don't like the fact that you are always in my business." She grumbled, trying to block the bond from her end while trying to find lies to cover this up. It wasn't easy, at all. Fated mate and its perks.Ah!"What?""We will go through it together then. Let him in, let's read it together and we will find out the big secret that I am hiding. Since I already told you that I'm fine but you won't just take your Mate's word for it." Zezi said in a whisper, trying as much as possible to ensure that Iriysi would not hear them.That was a useless thing though, if Iriysi was a pure-blood like her brother and an old vampire too, her hearing would be very good. Her gaze flew across the study where Irysi w

The walls had ears and Zezi had listened through the fours of the training room. "I think our King should mate with Lady Iriysi, she is a PureBlood and not a pest or a dog."One of the castle's servants had said. It was a group of people a good distance away from the training room, but now that Valerick's mark was on her, this very heightened hearing was one of the "perks" that came with it. "Lady Delice, I prefer." Another had chipped in."Or put all your concerns to your business, how about that? I heard you still haven't found your mate yet, that should be enough to occupy your mind, do you not think so?" A voice she knew all too well, snapped. A slight chuckle and another voice rose to the occasion to continue what they started. "Don't be like this Gwen, you know how it is.""No, I do not."Zezi wondered where Gwen had found all the people shipping her with the King, so far so good, she had been able to confirm that she wasn't widely liked by the vampires. She didn't care."

"The King is back."That had been about over thirty minutes ago, when Gwen had brought the news to her with absolute excitement. Now, Zezi stood in front of a hefty guard who wouldn't let her go into the room to see him. A gun would have been good right now, just so she could shoot a bullet right through his head."Get out of my way." She snarled. "That is an order!" But the guard stood rigidly at the door, looking straight ahead like he couldn't see her. Like she wasn't even there.Zezi gritted her teeth, as the running around of physicians in the room, slipped into her ears, their chaotic mutterings and Valerick's groans of pain tugging at the strings of her heart. From his side of the bond, she could feel nothing. Guilt dug a grave in her mind, and regret laid in it. Buried, deep, deep down. Her breathing was ragged with the conflict that tussled her around without mercy. Wasn't this what she wanted? Why was she not content with it? She should be happy. She was saving her

Zezi moved a finger, consciousness rushing back into her veins. It didn't feel like she was in the water anymore, didn't feel like she was drowning anymore.Instead, she felt the softness of the sheet beneath her and the smell of the first rain rushing into her lungs as she greedily inhaled. Her eyelids flickered open at that moment, Valerick's hazy outline which was illuminated by the golden light of the room, was all she could see. His hair fell over his face as he hovered over her.Another blink and she could see him clearly. He was alive, he was fine - that was if the familiar webbed lines that tattooed his neck were to be ignored, his peaking fangs and the dangerous look in his black eyes."Don't do that again," his cold voice warned, slicing through the silence, and the sound of clacking irons filled her ears as he moved away.Zezi panicked, and in a quick movement, she made him switch positions with her, trapping him with her thighs, observing at that moment the bundle of chai
