JasperThe sleep that had been wanting to engulf me flew out of the window when I heard him.What the hell was my brother plotting?“Kill the Vampire lord?”I repeated, wanting to ensure that I was not hearing things.Edriel shrugged, “Killing would maybe be taking things a bit too far, but subduing him maybe?”I scoffed.My brother had lost it.I slid the sheets aside and looked at him pointedly, furrowing my eyebrows."What do you really want, Edriel?”My gaze was sharp, piercing and though he was elder than me, I knew I could make him uneasy.He was jealous of me since childhood but knew better than to mess with me a lot. But he would get his satisfaction in little things such as getting a rise out of me.A way to boost his ego, I guess.And as long as it was harmless and just borderline annoying, I would let him.He was family after all, or whatever was left of it. “I want to be the next King, Jasper. Simple as that”Edriel answered and I shook my head. My eldest brother was not
JasperI read through the pages carefully, committing every little thing to memory.I was surprised to see no mention of his romantic life or partners there. Did they have mates or did they marry?I was unsure but I knew they lived for a long long time, just like us so we kept away from them.Just like the fae king. Or the head of the witches.Goddess, there were so many enemies to deal with but I was going to tackle them one step at a time.For now, my attention was going to be on the Vampire Lord-Ivan Henzler.He ruled over the vampires and also had a penchant for carrying around humans on leash- his personal 24/7 blood bank.I raised the photo to look at him and saw that there was something sinister in the way he looked, something that was definitely wrong.But, I couldn't say that I was not broken either. We left each other alone and had signed an agreement that didn’t sit quite well with the other supernaturals.Particularly, this Ivan.There was a knock on the door and I spoke ‘
CeliaI was not sure what emboldened me to say that but I bit my lip nervously as Jasper’s gaze locked on mine.A low growl left his lips as he looked at me with those smoldering hot eyes and replied,“Seduce me”I blinked furiously trying to understand if he was not playing tricks with me. This could not be real. He did not say that. I was hallucinating.“Excuse me?” I blurted out, realizing he had said something highly sexy without making it sound like it...like an alpha would claim his title as if it was merely for decoration.“You want the job, right? You want to volunteer for the task. Show me how worthy you are”Jasper quipped, his voice still having the same husky tone to it. He gave me an even look and waited for my reaction or rebuttal.I swallowed nervously as butterflies suddenly fluttered in my stomach.Jasper was just in his shorts and I had been wanting to touch him, my hands ached to feel those hard muscles on his chest but I did not want to jump on him like a lusting
CeliaThe thought excited me as heat pooled around my core, melting me from the inside out.I was wet already and I knew he could smell me. Goddess, I was such a pathetic weakling.When I did not reply, he bent forward and gave me another smoldering hot kiss before pulling away, still holding my lower lip between his own before releasing it.'Nooo, don't let go of me...bring back those lips on mine.' Of course, I said that in my head, not out loud.I would sound like a bleating goat if I tried speaking a word for my throat felt dry.My heart was racing, it could definitely defeat a cheetah in a race right now.My eyes had fluttered shut and I was so lost in the sensation that it took me a second to open my eyes and meet his gaze.My nerves were all tingling and I felt as if there would never be another face I would want to look at, another pair of lips I would want to assault me.The dark prince was just as alluring as he was mysterious. His kisses were both gentle and hard, bruising
CeliaHe growled, his voice coming out huskier than it had before. I pushed myself forward, barely, and was awarded with another kiss as he pulled me in.This time there was no gentleness to him. He grabbed me and in a minute, pinned me to the bed, turning us both around in an instant, and flipping me over.Both his hands held my wrist, pinning me to the bed as he lowered himself upon me.“I just wanted to know…”I croaked an answer as the nearness with him made me swallow nervously.The Lycan’s hold on me was not gentle and I feel him part my legs as a nervous energy crackled through me.I was wearing just a flimsy nightgown and did not have anything under it. Now that I was lying on my back, I could feel my nipples grow hard with the strain of him having so near. They would tear out of my nightgown any moment as my traitorous body gave in to him.He slightly parted my legs with his knees, just enough to make room for himself. But he was a man hulk so he did require a lot of space.
CeliaJasper kept sorting and shuffling through the papers and did not even look up to meet my gaze. That angered me even more as he replied,“I just stated the fact. You cannot let your guard down in front of the Vampire Lord, he won’t be so gentle…or careful with you”He said while turning the paper around, reading through the other side as if we had not just finished reading that and his hands and lips had not been all over me.How the hell he could act so smug?“You were gentle?” I cried, my voice shaking, hell no, my entire body was shaking, “look at my neck, you practically sunk your teeth in there like a….”I started but stopped as I realized what he had been doing.Jasper blinked and feigned curiosity, “Like a…like a what? Complete your line, my lady”He muttered in an oddly calm voice, waiting for my answer.If I had been wanting him to kiss me senseless just a minute ago, now I just wanted to snap his neck. I wanted the moon goddess to give me the strength to strangle him wi
CeliaMatron Arwen looked very angry as she brandished the whip in the air. She seemed to enjoy whipping and when I looked to the other end, I also noticed that there were three more women who were cowering in fear.Just like Grace, they were sitting with their bare backs, which were colored red as Matron Arwen must have whipped them black and blue.“I know you girls have nothing better to do than gossip about the princes. Know your place. None of you are fit to even look at them forget even fantasizing about them”She spoke as she pulled the long whip towards her and began coiling it around her arm.The girls all were shivering in fear as they anticipated the next lash that would sting their back and bite into their skin, drawing blood.One of the other girls whimpered as she continued, “No no...Matron Arwen, my-my lady’s dress was a…a good choice”Matron Arwen seemed to start talking to herself as she muttered, “I wanted her to look just like the slut she was…but that bitch seemed t
CeliaI let out a shaky breath as I heard the King’s voice strong and imposing voice, “come in”Rain spoke in my head, “This is a bad idea”“Oh, now you decided to show up?” I grumbled in my head.“I always do when you are reckless, which you always are” She quipped.I rolled my eyes at her and she went silent again.I switched my attention to the scene in front of me. For a minute, I had been worried that I had simply shouted at Rain out loud and guards would come to grab me but nobody came to drag me out of my hiding spot so I was good.I knew I was being reckless and debated over my decision of slinking into the room and how was I going to do that without either of them noticing.Matron heard his voice and opened the door as she bowed politely again. She then held the tray in her hands, balanced it to distribute weight, and then walked inside the room.I had no idea where exactly the king was standing if there were other people inside and if they could see me slink in and simply lu
