All Chapters of My Vampire’s Temptation: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Demetrius I kick a pebble and watch as it skips along the dark cobbled street. My hands are stuffed tightly in my pockets like they are searching for something. I’m in a real mood tonight. Another night in this meaningless life. Restlessness has taken over, guiding me to this place for reasons unknown. I drown out the noise and voices around me, not wanting to deal with the petty issues of humanity. Their problems seem so feeble and unimportant in the grand scheme of things.Why had I decided to come here at this hour when it was so very clear I shouldn’t be around anyone, especially any humans? Disgusting things. But I did know why. I was searching for something, anything different than what I was accustomed to. Maybe I can get into some trouble, maybe I will find a woman, or maybe I will do both. Vampire women are so boring and I’ve already had my share. Even though I didn’t like humans in general, taking one to bed every now and then at least allowed me some reprieve from my thoug

DemetriusThe hot liquid burns my throat slightly making its way down, but I welcome the pain. I quickly leave the area now feeling the need to get as far away from her as possible. Last night, my interactions with her were all I could think about, something I scolded myself for. I have never been so intrigued by someone before, not vampire or human. Especially not human. The thought alone disgusts me. I despise humans typically, but for whatever reason, not her. Did I pity her that much? It was possible the connection I felt was because I was seeing her experience a heartbreak firsthand, and I knew how that felt. That may be all well and true, but it does nothing to explain the physical attraction. Sure, I found some human women attractive enough to take them to bed, but nothing more. No. This was different. I had shown her kindness and grace, something I had only done to one other, something I had promised myself I would never do again.I shake my head at the thought. I don’t like w

XeniaI was seriously regretting some of my life choices lately. Why had I decided to get my master’s in child psychology again? Yes, I loved the field, and working with special needs children was so rewarding, but the study itself was challenging, not to mention the class schedule was completely outrageous. I’m barely able to stay afloat. I guess in order to obtain your degree, you aren’t allowed to have any type of social life. I shouldn’t even be complaining about it, though, because this is exactly what I need to be doing, throwing myself into my studies completely. With everything that has been happening, I need a distraction. Thankfully, Mom and Dad take care of all my financials, so I don’t have to work. They know how important this is to me and I am so grateful for them. I know everyone doesn’t have it as easy.Sitting in class, I can’t help the way my mind wanders as I stare out the window. Professor Richardson’s lecture is barely audible in the background as I drift off int

DemetriusI detach his head from his body without even thinking twice. Low-level scum. Luckily he was not one of mine, and had we not been in a parking lot where eyes could be on us at any moment, he would have been tortured and put through extreme pain before he lost his head. But I didn’t have time for that, so a quick death it was.Somehow, she did a number on him and I’m pleasantly surprised. My initial thoughts about her were right. She’s not the average woman. She has a depth to her that I want to explore in many ways. But seeing her laying there slumped over like that, I almost lose it, not even caring how worked up I am and why or the fact that I just killed a fellow vampire because of a human. All that matters in that moment is her safety. Thankfully I made Avalon stay in the car when I sensed her, unsure if the two meeting would be a good idea. If I had doubts before, I knew now it was no mere coincidence that I was being drawn to her once again. What was this unknown force

Xenia I thank the driver and tip him, not sure exactly how that works, because I think he’s actually employed by Demetrius by the way he spoke of him. But he was a sweet older gentleman opening the doors for me and waiting until I got inside before he pulling off, so he deserves a tip.I dive into my bed immediately sending a message to the group chat I have with Jez and Brittania. Britt is a night hawk, and sure enough she video calls me seconds later and I give her a recap of everything.“Holy shit, Xee. What the hell? Are you sure you’re okay?”“Yeah. I feel great now, actually. I mean, I was a little groggy at first and had a headache, but now I feel super energized. I guess I was out for a few hours.”“Hmm. And Demetrius was there again?” She asks sounding skeptical. “Yeah. Thank God for him.”“Yeah. I guess… it’s just kind of weird how he keeps showing up, don’t you think?” “I don’t know, Britt. I kind of feel like maybe he’s my guardian angel or something. I know it sounds w
