Chapter 1

ผู้เขียน: Cocojam
The Thorne Castle banquet hall reeked of sweet blood and heavy musk.

Mia flaunted her new bloodstone collar to the clan elders. Fake gasps of admiration echoed around her. Instantly, countless mocking stares shot toward me from the corners.

Luca sat on his throne at the head of the table. His cold, careless gaze cut through the crowd. It landed right on the side of my face.

After soaking up all the flattery, Mia swayed over to me. She held a glass of crimson liquid.

Her eyes locked onto the flawless amethyst daylight ring on my finger.

A year ago, on our blood bond anniversary, Luca bought it for a fortune at a dark magic auction. Just to make me smile.

Mia giggled and leaned close to my ear. "Elara, you already gave up the collar. Don't you think it's pathetic to keep clinging to the Consort's things?"

She reached out to touch the ring. I smoothly stepped back.

The main event of the night was about to begin.

By tradition, I was supposed to present the nether-rose. I had spent six months growing it with my own lifeblood.

It sat on a black crystal stand in the center of the hall. A gift for Luca's Centennial Blood Moon Festival.

But Mia beat me to the stand. Her voice was soft and overly sweet as she announced, "Luca said I get to present the festival gift tonight."

Before I could react, she grabbed a vial of liquid silver. With a deliberate flick of her wrist, she splashed it over my black rose.

A harsh hiss filled the room. The luscious petals instantly melted into a foul-smelling black puddle.

The crystal vase slipped and shattered on the floor.

She immediately grabbed her wrist. Her eyes turned red. Tears spilled down her cheeks.

"Elara, I was just trying to help... If you didn't want me to touch it, you could have just said so. Why did your magic hurt me?"

The decadent classical music stopped dead.

Every vampire in the hall snapped their eyes to us.

In the past, Luca would have used dark magic to tear apart any woman who dared to provoke me.

I used to be so horribly insecure.

If another woman even looked at Luca, I would hide in his arms and cry. I'd cry until he threw her into the deepest, sun-starved dungeon of the castle.

But this time was different.

Luca turned into a blur of black mist. He materialized between us and shielded Mia behind him.

His eyes fell on a barely visible scratch on Mia's pale skin. His handsome face twisted into a frown.

"Enough, Elara." His tone was pure accusation. "Mia is just a fledgling. Her newborn senses are fragile. Did you really have to scare her with your dark magic just to get attention at my banquet?"

I looked at the face I had loved with everything I had. A sharp pain ripped through my chest.

I took a deep breath and forced back my tears.

I didn't defend myself. I didn't grab his cloak and beg like I used to.

I just looked up. I coldly pulled the amethyst daylight ring off my finger.

While everyone stared in shock, I handed it to Mia.

"If you wanted, take this. I'm sorry my gift hurt you."

    Elara’s POVThe hall was dead silent. Only Luca's harsh, painful gasps echoed.The pure silver gun was pressed hard against his forehead.The deadly heat of the silver made his skin smoke.But he completely ignored Gabriel's murderous intent.His bloodshot eyes looked past the cold barrel and locked onto my face."Elara. Tell them this is just an act." He coughed up a mouthful of black blood. His voice was trembling wildly, but it still held that disgusting arrogance. "You want to punish me. I get it. Are you satisfied now? Come home with me."I stood on the stairs, looking down at him. I felt absolutely nothing."You can have the Lord's ring back." He crawled forward a half-inch, trailing blood on the floor. "The master bedroom is yours. You will always be the only Lady of the Thorne family. I'll give it all back to you."His tone of a gracious savior sounded completely ridiculous now.I lifted my heavy black skirts. In my black-diamond heels, I walked steadily down the cold marble st

I hugged Elara's old canvas bag until dawn.Tonight, I took Mia to the neutral zone.I booked the entire luxurious Scarlet Palace. I tried to beg the Nightshades for peace."Luca, are you sure this will work?" Mia grabbed my sleeve nervously. "Maybe we should just leave Onyx City."I shook off her hand. "Shut up. Just keep your mouth shut tonight and don't mess this up."The palace was brightly lit.All the prominent vampire families were here.I could feel their mocking stares right on me.At midnight, all the candles in the hall suddenly went out.Heavy shadows poured in from everywhere. A suffocating pureblood aura instantly covered the who

    Luca's POV8:00 AM. I sat in the alchemy lab, my face pale and grim.A fresh bowl of healing potion sat in front of me.But without Elara's pureblood to refine it, it smelled like rotting garbage.I fought back the nausea and took a sip. A second later, the old silver wound on my chest tore open with agonizing pain.I bent over, in too much pain to breathe. Black blood spilled from my mouth.I swept my arm and smashed the bowl on the floor. Clutching my chest, I roared at the servant: "Go find Elara! Tell her to get her ass back here and make my potion right now!"The servant shrank back and whispered, "My Lord, Lady Elara has been gone for three days."His words pierced my heart like a silver needle.The old wound exploded with tearing pain. I slumped into the chair, drenched in cold sweat.Then, a horrifying truth hit me.For ten years, Elara never needed my blood.I needed hers.I was in withdrawal.My broken body craved the Original heart-blood she secretly slipped into my potions.

    Luca's POVTen minutes later, a servant ran back into the hall dripping with cold sweat.He was deadly pale. Shaking violently."My Lord." He dropped to his knees. His voice trembled. "There is nothing outside. No ashes. No clothes. No trace at all."I crushed the crystal glass in my hand to dust.Sharp shards dug deep into my palm. Blood dripped through my fingers."Impossible." My voice sounded like it came from hell. "She can't leave this castle. She can't leave my blood."Murderous intent poured out of me. The temperature in the hall plummeted.I stood up and ordered a powerful blood-tracking spell.Let's see how long that stupid woman can survive out there.A few minutes later, Marco ran in with a scrying crystal. Shock and fear were written all over his face."My Lord." He stuttered. "The tracking magic shows... Lady Elara... got into a convoy of twelve obsidian cars. They had the Nightshade raven crest."My blood froze.Nightshade raven.The crest of the Nightshade family.The m
