Mistress

After leaving the ancient Vampire Academy, I spent a year hiding in the neutral zone with my mentor, an alchemist obsessed with sunlight resistance. No Senate laws. No secret family protection. My father is one of the Five Original Progenitors. Terrified I'd let some rogue sweet-talk me into a reckless blood pact, he forced a marriage on me. The groom? Julian Vance, Lord of the Crimson Clan in Nightfall City. I had no choice. I went to pick out a sunlight cloak fit for a Lord's wife. A cloak immediately caught my eye—woven with gold thread and night-spider silk, glowing in the dim light. Just as my fingers brushed the fabric, a gratingly sweet voice cut in. "I want that one. Wrap it up." Before I could look up, the manager snatched the display box right out from under my nose. I stood up slowly. "Ever heard of first come, first served?" I asked coldly. "Put it back." The female vampire turned around, looking me up and down with pure disgust. "This cloak is half a million dollars. Can you even afford it, you potion-stinking half-breed?" She smirked. "Julian Vance and I grew up together. We are blood-bonded. In Nightfall City, my word is law." Her almighty Julian was my fiancé. We hadn't even met yet. I pulled out my phone and dialed his number. "Good evening, Julian. Your pretty little childhood sweetheart just stole my cloak for our bonding ceremony. Tell me, how should we settle this?"

Chapter 1

Calling someone a "childhood sweetheart" might sound innocent, but it usually means a lot more.

If the Crimson Lord couldn't give me a good answer today, I'd just cancel the ceremony.

To my surprise, Julian Vance sounded ice-cold.

"Who are you? What gives you the right to talk about Victoria?"

Before I could even tell him I was Elara Nightshade, his powerful fiancée, he hung up on me.

Rage boiled in my chest.

Great. Just great. My own fiancé didn't even have my number saved!

Victoria laughed. She looked more smug by the second.

"Oh, you poor thing. I have no idea how you stole Lord Julian's number, but did you really think he'd care?"

A cruel smirk played on her lips as she looked at my clothes.

"Please. The lowest blood slaves in his manor dress better than you. Who gave you the right to be so confident?"

I never cared about my clothes. As long as I could work in the lab, I was fine. I just never thought it would be used against me.

I scoffed. "I don't need designer labels to hide my insecurities. But hey, whatever helps you sleep at night. Since Julian hangs around you willingly, I guess he isn't that noble either."

She totally ruined my mood. I grabbed a random silver sunlight cloak off the rack and looked at the manager.

"Wrap it. I'll take it."

The manager froze, looking nervous.

"Sorry, ma'am. We prioritize high-ranking clan members..."

Victoria giggled. She tilted her chin up and tapped the ruby crest pinned to her dress.

"See this? It means I am under Lord Julian's protection," she hissed. "What do you have, honey? Nothing. So stop pretending you're better than me."

I rarely picked fights. But today, Victoria pushed my buttons.

I crossed my arms and let my power out.

The pressure of my ancient bloodline flooded the salon. It crushed the air.

The temperature plummeted. Lights flickered. Expensive crystal blood-glasses shattered.

Victoria's smug smile vanished.

I asked calmly, "How about this? Does this prove I'm a high-ranking vampire?"

Victoria quickly hid her fear behind pure venom.

"So what? I've never heard of you. You're probably just a nobody from some tiny clan."

She glared at the manager.

"You must be new. Let me make this clear. We are in Nightfall City. Under Lord Julian's rule. If you sell her that cloak, this shop won't survive the night!"

The manager's hands shook. The box looked like it weighed a ton.

He turned to me, voice trembling.

"Ma'am, I just work here. I can't afford to offend Lord Julian... Please don't make this hard for me."

The other customers started whispering in panic.

"I've seen Lady Victoria around. The Lord really spoils her. Nobody crosses her."

"Once, a vampire stared at her wrong. The Lord threw him in a sunroom the next day."

"Ma'am, you might be high-ranking. But compared to Lord Julian? You're nothing. Just apologize to Lady Victoria and beg for mercy."

The crowd's submission fed Victoria's ego. Her smile grew wider.

Hands on her hips, her blood-red heels clicked loudly on the marble as she walked right up to me.

"That's right. Bow down. I want you to scream 'I am a half-breed' three times. Loud enough for everyone to hear," she ordered. "Do that, and I might let you walk out of here in one piece."

Chapter 2
In over two hundred years, no one had ever dared to be this arrogant to my face. I found it hilarious. I tilted my head. "What did you want me to say? I didn't quite catch that." "Perfect. You're deaf, too. Listen closely. 'I am a half-breed!' See? It's not hard." "Loud and clear," I smiled. "So, since you're the trash here, why don't you stay in your lane? You're in my way." Realizing I played her, Victoria shrieked. She bared her fangs and lunged at me. Cute. I trained under the harshest Senate masters since childhood. Did she really think she could hurt me? I didn't even have to fight back. The second she lunged, I simply teleported a few yards away. She missed completely. She tripped over her own heels and face-planted onto the marble floor. The crowd stared at me in pure shock. "Oh my god! How dare she treat Lady Victoria like that?" "When Lord Julian finds out, he'll tear her to shreds!" "Nobody can save her now. She's dead." Hearing their gasps and whispers, I fel

Chapter 3
My father told me Julian's father paid a massive price to get this marriage approved. If he found out his precious son ruined the deal, it would be a great show. Thinking of that, I felt a lot better. I didn't care about these idiots anymore. I spun on my heel to leave. But Victoria wouldn't let it go. Backed by Julian's blind protection, she grabbed my arm and barked. "Don't even think about running, thief! You stole my cloak and pushed me. We're not done!" I turned around. My eyes were calm. "What do you want?" She thought I was scared. She took the chance to swipe at my face. "I'm going to ruin your face, bitch! Let's see what man will ever look at you again!" I easily caught her wrist. Then I punched her hard in the chest. She stumbled back. She was stunned. She ground her teeth and screamed. "You bitch, how dare you—" I kept my grip on her wrist and shoved her again. "Happy now?" I asked coldly. Victoria stumbled back with tears in her eyes. She hid behind Julian. "

The moment I saw Kaelen, all my suppressed grief, fear, and anger poured out. "Father!" I sobbed. He rushed to my side. His eyes were full of worry. He took off his black velvet coat and wrapped it around me, hiding my burning silver wounds. I finally felt safe again once I leaned into his cold, solid chest. His arrival brought more than comfort. It brought a suffocating, crushing presence. The temperature in the salon dropped instantly. Some of the shatterproof glass cracked under the sheer pressure. The onlookers were already shivering. A few low-level vampires fell to their knees. They yielded to the terrifying aura. "Oh my god... Those are the Senate's Night Guards! And the guy leading them... Is that really him?" "It has to be. His aura just made my soul shake. What is he doing here?" "Wait, is he the father she was talking about? If so, Julian is dead. He just dragged his whole clan straight to hell!" Right now, Julian's face was as pale as a corpse. As a Lord, he fe

Chapter 5
I'm no saint. After what Victoria did to me today, I was definitely not letting her walk away unscathed. My father looked at me. "Do it, Elara. Show them nobody messes with our family." My eyes were locked on Victoria. I picked up the dagger she used to stab me and walked toward her slowly. She was shaking all over. She stuttered, "If you touch me, the Lord will never let you go..." I didn't want to hear her garbage. I grabbed her by the hair. While she screamed in terror, I carved a permanent, jagged cross right into her face. She shrieked. "My face!" I leaned in and whispered in her ear. "Didn't you want to ruin my face? Make sure no man ever looked at me again?" Victoria's eyes widened. All the color drained from her face. She tried to crawl backward in terror. I grabbed the box with the cloak. I opened it slowly right in front of her. The golden sunlight cloak sparkled under the lights. It was a brutal contrast to her messy, pathetic state. Then, I stayed perfectly ca

Seeing the murder in Kaelen's eyes deepen by the second, my heart clenched. I was really scared he'd kill Julian right here. I quickly stepped forward and grabbed his arm. "Kaelen..." He seemed to hear the worry in my voice. He took a deep breath and forced his fury down. The sharp killing intent slowly faded. He turned and patted my hand to comfort me. Then he shot an icy glare at the two people on the floor. He flicked his wrist. The Night Guards stepped up and dragged Julian and Victoria out like thrashing ragdolls. "Throw them in the UV Cell," Kaelen gave an absolute order. Hearing that name, Julian started thrashing wildly. The UV Cell was where the Senate punished the worst criminals. It was a cage made entirely of artificial UV lights. It burned a prisoner's skin and soul endlessly. Even the strongest vampires would go insane. Legend had it that no vampire ever lasted three days in there without losing their mind. "No... No!" Julian screamed. For the first time, tru

Chapter 7
A week later, I finished healing at the Blood Spring and went back to Nightshade Manor. By then, almost every vampire in the country had heard the story of a certain Lord who made an unthinkable mistake. He offended the beloved daughter of the Senate's Supreme Lord, the highest ruler of the dark world. For days, everyone was holding their breath, watching the situation, terrified of making a wrong move. Kaelen and I were working out of the council hall at the manor for now. Honestly, this place had become the temporary center of power for the whole nation. That afternoon, I was sitting by the window reading an ancient magic tome. A Night Guard appeared in a puff of black mist and bowed. "Supreme Lord, Lady Elara. The leaders of the Obsidian and Onyx Clans request an audience." I glanced at Kaelen, who was sitting at the head of the hall. He had his eyes closed, looking completely relaxed. He didn't even open his eyes. He drawled lazily, "Let them in." Soon, two powerful figu

After the two Clan leaders left, the hall was quiet again. I was about to pick up my book when another guard walked in. He looked a bit uneasy. "Lady Elara, the manager from the salon is outside. He says he's here to confess his sins. He's begging to see you..." I blinked, remembering that snobby manager. Kaelen looked at me and gave a mocking sneer. "Let him in. I'd love to hear what he has to 'confess'." A moment later, the manager stumbled in. He practically crawled across the floor. The second he reached me, he dropped to his knees and started bawling. "Forgive me, Lady Elara! I was blind! I didn't recognize who you were! Please, have mercy—spare my pathetic life!" He fumbled in his coat and pulled out a heavy bag. He held it up high with both hands. "This is everything I've saved over the years. I'll give it all to you. Please forgive me!" Seeing him groveling and practically kissing my boots, it was hard to believe this was the same arrogant manager from the salon. Ka

Chapter 9
Kaelen and I were sipping warm blood-wine in the council hall at Nightshade Manor. The air was thick with suffocating tension. Aldous stood to the side, frozen like a statue. Every second was agonizing. Finally, footsteps broke the dead silence. Two Night Guards walked in. They dragged Julian and Victoria out. They had been tortured by the UV lights so badly they were charred and barely looked human. The moment Aldous saw his son, a brief flash of heartbreak crossed his face. But it was quickly replaced by cold fury and terror. He didn't rush forward to help him. Instead, he marched over, grabbed Julian by the back of the neck, and forced his head down toward me. "You bastard," he gritted his teeth. "Apologize!" Then, loud slaps echoed through the hall as he hit Julian across the face, over and over again. This wasn't a father disciplining his son. It was a brutal execution of punishment. "Speak! Apologize to Lady Elara right now!" he roared. Julian was completely broken.

Chapter 10
Only Julian and Victoria's pathetic, grating sobs echoed in the hall. After a long while, I finally put my glass down. The sharp clink of crystal against wood cut through the air. They instantly went quiet. They stared at me with terrified eyes. But beneath the fear, there was desperate hope. I gave a faint smile, but my voice held no warmth. "If my father hadn't shown up in time that day, would either of you have let me go?" The question hit them like a slap to the face. They froze. The color drained from their faces. Their mouths hung open, but no words came out. "Victoria," I turned my eyes to the woman who once treated me like dirt under her shoe. "Wasn't it your dream to be a Lord's wife?" She nodded uncontrollably. A delusional spark of hope still flickered in her eyes. "And you, Julian." I shifted my focus to him. My tone was mocking. "You defied your fiancé for her. You let her attack me, just to spoil her. You must really love her, right?" "I don't! I was just..." h
