“Let me go!” He laughed, crimson bleeding into his irises and his fangs glinting with delight. Wrapping her legs around himself he cupped her behind that peeked from under the shorts she had on, licking at her ear, purring. “Did you like my presents?” Nyx scowled, pushing hard at his chest, hating the way her breath hitched in her throat from his touch, hating the little gasps that left her lips from the tingles she felt when his hands continued to graze her skin. “The flimsy clothes or the fact that you just turned me a feeder?” “Both. I thought you'd appreciate my gifts.” “Give me the antidote,” Draven cocked a brow, almost laughing at her pinced expression. Slowly bringing his face closer to hers, their lips merely inches apart he spoke, “Beg for it,” “You promised! You said you would give it to me!” “I didn't say when, did I? Maybe if you try to be a good little girl, I might as well be generous and offer you the cure you so desperately seek.” ††★★†† On the verge of the 21th century with vampires seizing power from humans, domineering them and plunging them back into the medieval times, Nyx a human hunter struggling to adapt to having the undead around becomes a vampire killer herself. Until she crosses path with the ever-so-deadly King of vampires, Draven. Claiming her under the ruse of a mate bond and condemning her to a life of slavery, he makes her the empire's whore. But as the pair grows close, Nyx slowly begins to pry off his bravado and shatter his world, opening the cold hearted vampire to a new kind of emotion. When the court demands a pure blooded queen, he knows he has more to protect than just the empire.
view moreHer purple hair flew to her face when the night wind swept over her skin, she rapped her ringed knuckles before starting the futuristic hi–tech bike she'd owned. Even during the carnage, she'd been able to rescue something that stood as a reminder of what the future once had.
Surely that was an abomination to the vampires but she'd properly gotten rid of any one of them who'd spotted her with it. Killing a vampire was not an easy task, but luckily, the moment they resurfaced, hunters came and selected a few humans from the bloodline of hunters and she was one of them. The symbol on her back and her family medallion hanging down her neck was a solid proof of it."Just hit the mutherfucker already!" Cheyenne's voice boomed on the other end of the ear pod plugged into her earlobes.Killing a newborn vampire or a fledgling was easy but the man standing a few meters away from her was no fledgling. He was one of the first ancients who'd led the massacre of humans.He stood transfixed, folding his arms at his chest as the breeze blew his brown locks about. He had a wide grin on, daring her to make her move.They'd been hot on eachother's trail since she'd began to kill the newborns at the outside borders. Her action had forced the vamp's leader out to get her. Many a time had she barely managed to survive an encounter with him but tonight, he'd cornered her, leaving her with no way out of the abandoned alley than to kill him."Are you going to try to kill me or are you just going to stand there and stare at me? I've not got the whole time in the world so come at me and let's get this over with."Firing her bike, she aimed in his direction with one thing in mind; hit him and make a run for it because that was the only option doable at the moment.When the bike tyres skidded on the smooth asphalt street, he scoffed. Even when she rammed the metal bike into him, he didn't as much as flinch. She watched his body fly the opposite direction, rolling down the street, his bones popping and dislocating.She observed the nauseous sights of his legs and hand twisting and turning in the wrong ditection which looked quite fatal and painful but she knew he'd heal between seconds she fired full speed into the night."Nice ride you've got here,"She shrieked when she felt strong arms grab her off the bike, how the fuck had he healed so fucking fast?! That injury was enough to take him out for seconds, and most importantly, how had he caught up with her?! She was on a fucking bike! The fastest at that. She watched her bike, her most treasured possession shatter in front of her when it rolled down the path.The next thing she felt was her back being pressed on the asphalt street and a strong grip tightening at her neck.He tsked, "pesky little thing. When you began to kill my men, I'd thought you were just another raving insect that would soon be stepped on and destroyed but clearly I was wrong. You have become more than a pest, you've become a bug and a pain in the ass."She cried out when his claws dug into her flesh, her hand traveled into the pocket of her combat pant."I...feel..honored for...being a..pain in your...majesty's ass." She wheezed out, struggling to breath."You'll feel more honored when I snap your bony neck," he retorted excitedly.When her hand touched the little cylindrical metal in her pocket, he grinned, revealing sets of white fanged teeth. He leaned down a little but stopped midway."I cannot soil my insides with your blood, any last words bug?"She scowled, pulling the metal into her grasp she spat on his pretty sculpted face."Fuck you!""That's it!" He snarled, his hand at her neck tightened her eyes enlarged when air was restricted from entering her lungs. In one skilled precise movement he snapped her neck with a pop."It was a waste to kill such a pretty little thing," he sighed, cleaning his face with the back of his palm. Gazing at the dead girl on the ground with a shocked expression on her face he leaned back up, stretching his body before walking away."Where are you going? We have unfinished business!" A very angered voice spoke behind him.He gasped, stopping and turning on his feet. His eyes met with the purpled haired girl who was supposed to be dead. She rubbed the part of her neck that had been bruised."Damn it! Why won't you just die already?" He stomped his foot angrily on the floor like a child, pouting.Nyx adjusted her footing, ready to attack, "I think your brain is too slow to realize that you cannot kill me. Not that easily, I'm an hunter you twat!" She rubbed her chin as if lost in thoughts, "oh wait you're dead, so I guess your brain is too. Am I wrong?" She chuckled.He growled, lunging in her direction at a fast speed she couldn't keep track of. Hurriedly pressing the button on the cylindrical metal, it popped open and morphed considerably into a saber. It was the future anyways, now you could keep both a saber and a sword in your pocket.She trailed her hand at the edge of the blade wincing when it cut through the skin on her palm. She placed it on a symbol on the blade, her blood seeping into it she activated the spell on it.He wasn't charging at her yet, he was toying with her, trying to stalk her like the predator he was. She knew he'd enjoy attacking her at unawares and revel in killing her while her heart thumped in fear in her chest.He was fast, swishing past her, making her turn in circles to see where he attacked from. She heard his faint chuckles in the air and the change of the earth under her feet when a force approached.Turning back, she shut her eyes, snapping it open that very minute she swung her saber and heard a loud gasp.Swirling back on her heels she glared at the alpha vampire behind her who grabbed unto his neck as blood spilled out of the opening her blade had caused. He had been fast but not fast enough for the effect of the attack of her blade with the spell on it.Gurgling on blood he fell to his knees. She clicked on a button beside her saber and it morphed back to the cylindrical metal it was."Not so bad after all? Any last words to say?"He grabbed unto her combat pants, wheezing. His eyes enlarged in pain and agony."Oh, sorry. You're dead anyways,"With that, she pushed him back and watched his head sever from it's body the moment his back touched the floor. Who knew killing an alpha vampire, an ancient was this easy?She bounced off triumphantly. She'd have informed the other hunters but her ear pod had flew out of her ear and they couldn't see her since her bike had been destroyed."Didn't they teach you never to leave a vampire with it's head?"She stilled.Her heart hammered frantically in her chest. How was he alive?! She'd severed his head with a blade forged with the energy of sunlight! No vampire alive could survive that.The moment she tried to turn back she felt a grip on both her arms when he pulled her back into the curve of his cold rigid body,"Goodbye, bug." He purred.With that, she felt strong menacing jaws clamp down on her shoulders. She let out a high pitched screech when the bite burned into her body like hot lava.He dragged her blood into his mouth mercilessly and relentlessly. A few minutes later her eyelids became heavy and her body went lax, slowly she drifted off into eternal darkness.The doors to her room suddenly jerked open and Callan, the king’s brother stood at the doorway. His gaze narrowed as he looked at her, noticing the permanent scowl plastered on her face as she sat at the edge of the bed with the bloodied knife that splayed on the ground. “Hell,” he breathed out. “What happened here?” Nyx scoffed, uttering no words as she raked her fingers through her hair when he hurried towards her direction. He shrugged her to her feet, lifting the thin fabric she had on. His hands trailed her flesh the very moment his body undulated and wisps of darkness shrouded his countenance. “Fuck. I smell vampire. My brother was here, wasn’t he?” “What do you think?” She rasped. “I was a fool to think that you could provide me any form of sanctuary. When in truth, your brother also has you wrapped around his fingers.” In truth, she could tell that she was the one who’d been caught under his trap. Draven had managed to prove that to her with his presence. There was
“Maybe not try to throw me away like I was some piece of thrash would have been okay!” She yelled, raking her fingers through her hair. “It was fine when I didn’t know anything about you! When I didn’t care, you brought this upon yourself! You should have killed me that night or you should have left me right where I belonged!”He stared at her in disbelief, his lips parting for a moment like he struggled with his next words. Nyx wondered what games he was playing at this time around, why he was letting her feel these things, letting his guard down and showing her this sides to him that seemed to care.But it was all a lie!Draven was a mindless monster who cared about no one but himself. His steps faltered and he shuddered right where he stood, a muscle in his jaw ticking when he spoke. “These things you think you feel, these things that I feel, It’s all because of the bond. It would never have been possible if you weren’t unfortunate enough to be fated to me.”“Then end it!” She said
A vampire asserting his claims on her like she was some little plaything to be owned was the last thing Nyx ever thought possible to excite her but when the words left his lips she had realized that she'd wanted nothing more than to be owned by them, shared between both brothers, used for their pleasure. Deep down inside, she somehow enjoyed the degradation, the humiliation Draven provided and it scared her.Some few weeks ago, she had been one of the most ruthless vampire hunter, her name topped the charts for her hatred towards their kind, they didn't matter, to her, they were just parasites that needed to be exterminated. Fast forward to some weeks later, here she was, leashed to Callan's bed like a dog awaiting his instructions.Callan had left her to herself, sometime during the night, they both couldn't sleep, one watching the other like a hawk would to his prey, while the other's wariness wouldn't stop the frantic beating of her heart. This wasn't the way she had envisioned the
Nyx sat pondering hard on what the sinfully beautiful vampire had just said. This wasn't the way she had envisioned their conversations to go, but she also couldn't deny the attraction she felt towards him. Heck, she would have happily obliged his every whims of she was his ‘She’ and not Draven's. Even the mere thought of the name made her skin crawl with disgust. She hated the vampire so much and would do anything to make him suffer even if it meant siding with his brother to bring him eternal torture. He had thrown her to the wolves! Made her a pet to be used and discarded the moment he made her an additional collection in his barn. But as much as she wanted to see to his torment, she also couldn't help but think this was a very bad idea.He was the king, and although his brother coveted the crown, he was still in charge here. She couldn't tell how powerful Callan was in the blood sucking hierarchy, but from the little intro he had just given her, he was obviously far back behind
“If Draven has such powerful support, don't you think it's a bad idea to want the throne? Especially if your father handed it over himself.”He stared up, lost in thoughts for a brief moment. He rubbed at his temple, smoothing the edge of his collared shirt."You're right, little bird. It is an absolute bad idea. My father did try to keep me hidden. More out of shame and embarrassment than our of love."“You said he loved your mother.” she quipped hesitantly.“He did. Once. Her remains in an urn decking his room was enough proof he once loved her.”Nyx gasped, clasping her hand over her mouth to muffle the sounds that nearly came out as a shriek from surprise. He let them kill her? All to please a goody-two-shoes vampire royalty?!“I'm so sorry...Did he–”“–No. Under the queen's command, Draven burned her on a funerary pyre after years of torture. She'd first had to die repeatedly by drowning when she had her wrapped in silver cage and thrown down the lake.” he cackled, his eyes shifti
Nyx continued to stare at Callan even as he rested leisurely on the sofa in the room. The mere act enough to irritate her as they both engaged ina staring contest. His head fell back, his hair dancing wildly around him.“What's your story, love?” he inquired.“Mm?”He gave her one of his cheeky smiles, “Your story. Indulge me on the little details.”She shrugged, adjusting herself at the edge of the bed where she sat. She wondered what he was playing at this time.“I don't have a story. But, even if I did have one, I'm not sharing with you.”He chuckled. His deep timbre voice resounding through the room melodiously. Crimson bled into his irises with a mix of amusement dancing in them. “Come on, now, little bird. Everyone has a story.” he sighed this time, “I know you're not comfortable being around me because I'm a vampire and quite frankly, my brother is a bad portrayal of my kind. Typical vampire tyrant, I tell you. I do understand your plight but I'm a little hurt you see us in th
