Chapter21."Which of them?" I gently held his shoulder."Bro, that beautiful one talking to Iesha." He hugged me happily."What,Belle?" I asked in utter surprise."Yes. Is that her gorgeous name?" He asked and I nodded."Ezekiel, I need you to stop acting like Xander. You're more responsible okay, Moreover I don't want Belle getting hurt because it hurts Iesha." I tried to reason with him but he picked offence in my words."What's wrong with liking her and who says I'm gonna hurt her. I love her bro." "Well, I'll be the judge of that." I said and was about to go into my room when he pulled me back to his side."Don't deprive me of love please." He tried to get into my head but I left him in anger, slamming my door to his face."What's wrong?" Iesha hugged me from behind because I rested my forehead on the door the moment I got in."I should take my leave." Belle tried to leave but I stopped her."Iesha would go with you." I turned to Iesha and she nodded to my words. I was bothered
Chapter22I moved away from him which left him speechless. I could feel tension on both of us. How do I tell him I have someone else? I quietly let myself move away from the bed and stood far away from him."I'm sorry master, I am just a mere slave and I know I'm not allowed to defend myself but I have someone who I'm in love with." My eyes faced the ground and my heart pounded loudly."But I'm in love with you, isn't that what matters?" He walked up to me, grabbing my shoulders gently as he pulled me in for a hug."I even got into a fight with my cousin for you." He confessed.Well I didn't care what he did and didn't do. I needed to leave his room fast."I'm sorry but I have to go take my medication." I lied just to get him to let me be."Let me come with you." He left me and moved towards the door when I caught his arm."I forgot I had taken them." I lied again, laughing nervously as I itched my head continuously."Are you scared of me or has anyone gotten you terrified of purebl
Chapter23The ray of the sun peaking through the window brushed my skin. I opened my eyes but the headache I felt caused me to close them as soon as I did."Ouch." I winced before a male voice caught my attention. My heart pace increased and I could feel my body heating up."What did you do to me?" I asked, slowly opening my eyes to get a much better view of his face."Nothing." He shrugged his shoulders before handing me the cup of coffee,"This is going to help with your headache." He sat down as he watched me with a dreamy look.I stared at the coffee and even sniffed it, I didn't trust any pure blood and he wasn't an exception."It isn't poisoned or drugged." He replied to the question on my mind.I gazed at him for a while before sipping the coffee."Thank you." I mumbled softly and I could see him smiling like he had just won a lottery."You're really pretty, even in the morning." He brought his hand close to my face and his fingers trailed my cheek.I blushed but soon realised w
Iesha's Pov I knelt down with the other girls my age in front of the famous Hunter Beckham, my gaze lowered as my body trembled at the thought of who he was going to pick. Sweat dripped from my head and I felt a little bit nauseated, however, any mistake in front of him could cost me my life.Hunter Beckham was a well known Vampire Mafia. I had never seen him but I heard how horrible of a man he was. I heard he had no respect for women and would stop at nothing to destroy anyone standing against the empire handed over to him by his father.My heart thudded loudly and I was sure it could be heard in the totally silent room. My thought deviated to what would happen to the poor girl he would pick."He would probably drain blood out of her, beat her often, or use her like some toy." I concluded when the corner of my eyes caught sight of a pair of black shoes beside me. It was well polished and it seemed expensive too. There was no doubt who it was, it was him, Hunter Beckham!My breath go
Unknown pov."Please boss, it won't happen again." I shook vigorously while on my knees as sweat trailed down my forehead."You were expected to have transported the goods. What went wrong?" His eyes were on his gun and the next moment his eyes and gun were fixed on me."I_i." Words didn't seem to be forming well for me as I gazed at him with pleading eyes."Give me one good reason why I shouldn't blow up your head right now!" His calm voice had a tone of seriousness in it."I am loyal to you." I gulped, hoping my words would ease him a bit, thankfully it did."Fine! I will give you till tonight, otherwise…" he placed his hand close to his neck and made a death sign."I want to get some good news." He said before getting up from the chair of his hideout which was located far away from the mansion. He would have normally sent some guys to deal with the issue but it involved his most loyal transporter.Hunter's PovI caught her as she fell, her yellow eyes being unable to stay open. She
I sighed before turning to Mikael. "If someone were to hit Lilith won't you react, fight for her or...""Lilith is his mate! There's a big difference." Xander interrupted with a raised tone."I wasn't talking to you!" I pulled out my gun, pointing it at Xander whose seat was facing me."Enough!" Father shouted, making everyone's attention to focus on him. "I called for a peaceful dinner but look what it's turning into, a family debate!" He sighed with his head lowered and that was when I took the opportunity to stand up, putting my gun away so father won't be offended."Where are you going?" His lowered head was ready raised and I could see disapproval in his expression."If Xander is going to keep on talking shit to me then I'm not hungry anymore." I was about to take a step when dad's gun pointed to the back of my head."Sit." He stated. I knew his hand was on the trigger but I never felt any fear."You should know dad that I no longer fear death." With that, I made my way to my ro
Hunter's PovIt was only a short period of time before she fell asleep. I could see how uncomfortable she was from how stiff her body was to how her eyebrows kept furrowing.I focused on her facial features to distract myself from the blood vessel in her neck calling to my fangs. I was so close to her, I could hear her heartbeat, my fangs were itching to claim her at once!It took a while but I was able to forcefully pull myself away from her. I took a glass of blood wine and immediately left the room. My blood thirst had been rising ever since she got here and for the first time I felt aroused by a woman. I had earlier taken a suppression drug, something I had for urgent situations, but somehow, the thought of us together in sync kept me turned on."You little she devil." The frown on my face had begun to turn into a smirk, it was like only thoughts of her had the ability to change my mood in seconds."There's definitely something about you I would love to find out." I made my way t
Leaving my worries behind for a little while, I decided to focus on my meal. I tried to eat but the thought of what happened earlier seized my appetite so I couldn't eat to my fill. I was lost in thought when the young servant who took care of me entered.She arranged the tray and as she prepared to leave, she made a statement which I wanted to know more about."You're lucky." "What do you mean?" I carefully held her hand to avoid any mishaps because of the tray she was holding.She moved closer to me, taking a seat beside me on the bed."Sir Xander spares no one. You were lucky Sir Hunter was here to help you just in time. You would have ended up like some of those girls who went into his torture room and never came back the same way." "Torture room?" My eyes widened, I have heard about some of those in the slave house. It was where the stubborn ones were punished."Yes Torture room." She replied, moving closer to me as her eyes looked around."You can't often hear the screams and
