RayaI think Blade is trying to kill me.I have never in my life worked out as hard as. I am to keep up with him. But if I ever fall or say that it’s hard or I can’t do it then he tells me to get back up again and push even harder.It’s crazy to think that I was so close to kissing this man just a few hours ago because now I want to do nothing other than throttle him. He seems to know this and gives me a cocky smirk before setting a cup down in front of me and saying, “Drink. You’ve earned a five minute break.”The last thing I want to drink is blood. I want to drink water. I open my mouth to tell him that and he tells me, “The blood will rejuvenate you and make you feel energized. No arguing.”My eyes narrow and I say, “I’m half human. I need water so I don’t like… dehydrate!”He rolls his eyes and push off the wall walking to the door. I stay frozen in my spot, not sure if I should follow until I hear his voice beckon, “Come along, pet.”I let out a growl but follow behind him becau
Bound By Blood Chapter 15 | Fake It
BlairI’ve always been in good shape. My father made me work hard so that I would be ready in case a vampire ever attacked. My dad’s paranoid after he lost his parents to an attack and he wasn’t home to keep them safe.It’s crazy that when the day comes you truly aren’t prepared for it. It happened so fast, it makes me upset. I should’ve been able to do something but… I know better now. I will get Raya back. She doesn’t deserve this, even if she is his daughter. She’s a human and she belongs with our family.I travel through the woods and it’s harder than I expected it would be. The uneven terrain, feeling on edge by every sound, the hours of walking and not knowing if you’re even close to the right direction. I’m hoping that I might be able to lure the vampire to me once night comes. I could make myself bleed and then put a stake through him before he can kill me.I stop walking and look up at the sky, it shouldn’t be too much longer before the sun has fully set and the night is upon
Bound By Blood Chapter 16 | Knowledge
Raya It’s been a week since I was taken to the Ambrose estate.Julian ignores my existence. I’m not allowed on his floor, not allowed to any meals he wants with his sons, and under no circumstance am I allowed to have sex with any of them.At least, that’s what Julian says. Blade hasn’t tried to be intimate with me and he’s the one around me the most. We train every day, or well… night because that’s when the boys are normally awake. He says I’m getting better, I tell him that I think he’s trying to kill me and he laughs at me.Adam seems to be cautious with me. We’ve bonded over books. He brings me a new one every couple of days that he thinks I’ll like. But otherwise, he seems to be uncomfortable with my presence.Luther enjoys teasing me. He always calls me his toy, he flirts with me more when his brothers are around because he knows it gets a rise out of them, but the few times we’ve been alone he hasn’t tried anything with me. In fact, he maintains a respectful distance from me
Bound By Blood Chapter 17 | Potential
Raya The walk to the office where Julian Ambrose is waiting is deathly quiet. Adam and Luther walk side by side in front of me and Blade walks beside me, his hand on my lower back as he silently guides me where I need to go. We go up to the next floor where I’ve been told that Julian lives. We walk into his office and immediately his eyes glue onto me and he gestures to the seat across from him and says, “Please, sit, Raya.”I do, knowing better than to argue with him, but I notice the way all of his sons frown as if they don’t like me being near him. He tilts his head to the side as he observes me and states, “You look more like a vampire than you did when I first met you.”He’s not wrong. My complexion is slightly more pale, every day I swear my reflection fades a little more, I am learning how to move quickly, my fangs seem to be growing back.I don’t answer him, not knowing how I would even respond to his statement. He says, “I think I may have jumped the gun a little bit, Ms. L
Bound By Blood Chapter 18 | Walk or Ride
BlairThe journey to find the vampire took longer than I thought it would. It would’ve been faster if I rode Hunter’s wolf, but something about that makes me feel uncomfortable. I don’t think he would harm me, but when it comes down to it, he’s a total stranger. I don’t know his intentions.My feet have blisters on them and apparently the vampire lives at the top of a hill and the uphill terrain is exhausting. The sun is already setting and I’m beginning to feel hopeless and like Hunter might be taking me for a ride.I look over at him, he took his shirt off hours ago murmuring about how he hates traveling in his human form, I’ve tried not to look at him much since. He’s too attractive and distracting.His southern drawl drives me crazy especially when he’s looking out for my safety. I don’t know why he cares about me other than the fact he wants to sleep with me.He says, “We should probably make camp for the night, darling.”I frown, “How much longer till we get there?”He lets out
Bound By Blood Chapter 19 | Saving
RayaThe trip to Arthur’s house took longer because of Blade allowing the ability to learn how to run. It is absolutely invigorating, I didn’t even know that my body was capable of moving at such high speeds.Blade would smile at me and I don’t think that I’ve ever seen his smile so broad. This energy between us is contagious, infectious, making me want to constantly chase this high that I’m experiencing. Never in my life have I felt something as wonderful as this. I hate how long it took me to recognize what’s happening to me, but I’m grateful to know now because now I can really have the chance to live my life the way I want to.No more hiding, no more limiting myself, I am free to be who I am!Well… to an extent… I still have to deal with the Ambrose brothers, but more and more I’m finding that I enjoy their company and I wouldn’t mind officially being a part of the Ambrose House. I don’t know if that will ever happen, I think it would be Julian’s decision and… he will only like me
Bound By Blood Chapter 20 | Lose Yourself
RayaMy heart felt like it stopped when I heard Arthur’s voice again. It took me by surprise, I wasn’t expecting him to be just behind us. But I’m sure with how loud we were being that we disturbed his night. I turn towards him, but he isn’t looking at me. His eyes are focused on Blade, he thought he had paid his debt, but now Blade is back which meant that things weren’t in the clear like he thought it was. Blade seems like he’s having a hard time to decide where his focus should be. Should it be on Arthur or Hunter? Neither one seemed like they liked his presence, both kind of gave the vibe like they wanted to kill him more than anything else.I let out a breath and Blade asks him, “Did you think the dog would be powerful enough to protect you from me?”Hunter lets out a growl and says, “I am an Alpha, Blade Ambrose, and a powerful one at that. I demand you treat me with respect or I may have no other choice than to retaliate.”Blade turns his head to him and says, “That depends o
Bound By Blood Chapter 21 | Conversation
RayaArthur squirms under my intense gaze, obviously uncomfortable with the conversation. But I need to know more about my origin. I say, "What powers do I have? You said you used to have other children, and they got too strong from consuming too much. What powers were common with them?"His cheeks puff out as he gives a long exhale and says, "The speed is common with everyone, fast reflexes, um... most didn't experience much outside of that.""But some did?" I question.His eyes narrow at me, he now is looking at me with a rather intense gaze and he asks, "Raya, are you experiencing some abilities you haven't talked about?"I shift uncomfortably in my seat, feeling exposed under Arthur's piercing eyes. "I don't know," I mutter, averting my eyes. "Sometimes I feel like I can sense things before they happen, like a premonition or something. But... it hasn't happened frequently. And... the more blood I consume, the more I can see how my human side is fading. I'm starting to be unable to
