تسجيل الدخول❤️ Under the Mad King’s Gaze (2) ❤️Kaelithra didn't want to do as he said. She had a feeling he might have figured out she was using a disguise spell. After all, her father had been terrified of Draevon for a reason. So she braced herself, stopped what she was doing, and slowly turned around to face him.Looking at him squarely in the eyes. That was one thing her father had drilled into her head since childhood. If you don't look your opponent in the eye, they'll think you're hiding something. Always meet their gaze and never look away first.Draevon stared at her, and there was something about her eyes that startled him. They were dark chocolate brown, deep and expressive even in that ugly twisted face. It was like he'd seen those exact eyes before somewhere, but where?They reminded him of someone. Of Malgron's daughter, actually. The assassin he'd only met once, in that war tent, right before she killed him.But that was impossible. That woman was royalty, beautiful, deadly and no
❤️ Under the Mad King’s Gaze ❤️Kaelithra tried to pretend she didn't know him. She nudged Marl with her elbow, maybe a bit harder than necessary."Finally, I now have a customer," she said, keeping her voice steady even though her heart was beating so fast it felt like it might jump out of her chest. She even wondered why she was so scared. Their paths hadn't crossed in this second life. She hadn't killed him. Hadn't poisoned him. Hadn't even been near Khyrador or anywhere close to the outskirts of the kingdom. He didn't know her. Couldn't know her.She smiled at the stranger, though her ugly, wrinkled face didn't do the smile any justice."Marl, clean up here. I don't want my customer to complain about the mess here."But Marl wasn't moving. He just stood there like someone had frozen him in place, his eyes wide and his mouth slightly open, staring at Draevon like he'd seen death itself walk through the door.Marl could recognize Draevon anywhere. Everyone in the supernatural kingd
❤️ When The King Comes Knocking ❤️Marl didn't waste any time.The very next hour after leaving The Ink Hollow, he was back again, but this time he wasn't alone. Behind him came five servants who were struggling under the weight of baskets and crates filled with food. So much food that Kaelithra's eyes actually widened."Marl, what is all this?""Food!" he announced proudly, gesturing at the mountain of supplies being carried into her small shop. "I went to every market in some kingdoms. The best butchers, the finest bakers and some the exotic spice. I got everything!"The servants set down their loads and quickly left, probably grateful to escape before the crazy vampire prince changed his mind and made them carry more.Kaelithra stared at the pile of food now taking up half her shop space.There were wheels of cheese from three different kingdoms. Loaves of bread that were still warm and smelled like heaven. Smoked meats that made her mouth water just looking at them. Fresh fruits s
❤️ A King’s Curiosity ❤️"It wasn't a serious fight and she wasn't worth using it on," Miraeve said with a dismissive wave. "So, will you do as I asked? Please?"Draevon tilted his head, studying his sister with amusement."I thought you were interested in that demon king's son? What happened to him? Didn't you make him remove his father's five teeth and his own teeth too just to get them to agree to your request?"Miraeve scrunched up her nose like she'd smelled something bad."Oh him? I got bored of him. Plus he didn't satisfy me that well in bed, so I dropped him like a hot bag of potatoes. Actually, more like a cold bag of rotten potatoes."Draevon snorted despite himself. His sister went through men the way normal people went through shoes."Fine," he said, heading toward the door. "I just hope your hunchback is worth my time and energy.""OUR hunchback," Miraeve quickly corrected, pointing at him. "You're helping me now, so it's OUR hunchback. We're a team."Draevon just shrugge
❤️ The Sixth Lesson ❤️"Okay, when have I asked you for a serious favor?"Draevon looked at his sister with a raised eyebrow, about to list every single time she'd dragged him into her chaos."You don't need to answer that, my dear handsome brother," Miraeve said quickly, cutting him off before he could start. "You know you are the only handsome man in all the entire kingdoms. And now I have equally found someone just as handsome as you too."Draevon's chest puffed up a little bit at the compliment. He tried not to let it show, but Miraeve knew him too well."But that stupid hunchback won't allow us to be together," Miraeve finished with a pout.Draevon's moment of pride faded and his expression turned serious."But how is the hunchback your problem?" he asked, leaning forward in his chair. "You punched her and she survived. Fine. But why didn't you fight her properly? Why didn't you use the secret technique I showed you? The one that can bring anyone, any fucking one, to their knees?
❤️ Interest of a Monster (2) ❤️Draevon hissed, the sound sharp and dangerous in the quiet room."A hunchback?" His eyes narrowed. "For a moment there, I actually thought you'd finally found her. The one I've been searching for."Miraeve rolled her eyes. "Still obsessed with your mystery girl? Brother, it's been three years. Maybe it's time to move on.""Never," Draevon said quietly, but there was steel in his voice. "I will find her. No matter how long it takes.""Right, right." Miraeve waved her hand dismissively. "But can we please talk about something interesting? Like what happened tonight at that boring vampire party?"Draevon leaned back in the chair, his fingers drumming on the armrest. "Fine. Tell me about this hunchback that has you so excited."Miraeve's grin came back full force."Okay, so I crashed the party, obviously. Nobody invites me to anything fun, so I just show up anyway." She started pacing the room, gesturing wildly as she spoke. "The vampire king was there, lo
