IvanAs I looked outside the abandoned building that I had now taken as my refuge, I clenched my fists.I had been long gone, looking after urgent matters that needed my time, and attention. So, by the time I returned here, things had gone downhill. The Xurian empire had snatched away our lands, established supremacy, and turned all of us into their minions. And it was not only us vampires but also other supernatural beings such as witches, faes, and many more.I looked outside the ruin of a building, while my legs dangled down the archway of a colonial architectured window that seemed to give in any moment. A place that used to be my stronghold, a place that exuded power…now reduced to ruins.My fists clenched at the thought of the humiliating way I had been defeated last time by the King…, particularly a certain silver-eyed prince.My eyes were fixated on the large castle that stood tall and proud on the land, my land.I was the supreme being here, not that Brigdain and certainly n

Celia I was brave. Or I was being extremely stupid. But I did not want him to find out about my recent escapade. And I also did not want him to label me a weakling. The way he had reacted after our kiss, and the way he had begun collecting the papers lying on his bed without even looking at me again had been too hurtful. I wanted him to show I was strong, that I could also be unaffected by his touch or our nearness. Maybe, climbing down the walls of such a huge palace had not taught me a lesson already of how my recklessness would lead me to my doom. But I did not care. The words had tumbled out of my mouth and now it was time for action. So, I steeled my heart and prepared myself for the ‘task’ Jasper did not say anything further but he grabbed my wrist and headed straight to his room. The guards had probably gone to the rounds but I caught Grace running through the corridors, holding sheets in her hand. I did not look at her for I feared it would give away what I was going

CeliaI woke up after lying in the bed for what felt like decades but there was still a throbbing headache, pounding on me as if somebody was drilling holes in my head. Not to mention the rest of my body that felt as if I had climbed a mountain.I had no idea how long I had been asleep, was it hours? days?My eyes were still shut and I did not have the energy to open them either. I just wanted to lay in the bed, buried under the sheets when I heard the faint rustling of clothes.And then the memory of my ‘task’ with Jasper hit me like a trainwreck. I had simply left him in the shower, turned around, and thrown myself on the bed after the tiring ‘task’. I did not have the energy to handle the emotions it would bring forthI was too tired. I would do that later, when I had enough time, recalling every single expression of his and remembering the delightful moans that escaped his lips as I sucked him dry.Now, I just needed something hot to drink to clear my senses.“Or do you want to

CeliaThere was the prince, standing in his grey pants and a blue button down and waiting for me to hurl accusations at him. He did not offer any explanation, nor did he give any indication if he wanted me in the room or not.Our eyes had just met but he quickly tore his gaze away from me and he began gathering his stuff as if I wasn’t standing there.That infuriated me even more. Just what did he think of himself?I was the one who had sucked him dry, left him feeling high and breathless and then I had been dismissed to my room.He had not even been courteous enough to pluck me off my feet and deposit me on my bed, maybe tuck me in my sheets.But what was I thinking? Jasper would never do that.An awkward silence filled the room as he began walking out of the room. I wanted to wipe that smug look off his face so I simply marched towards him, my hands placed on my hips as he stepped away.“Are you just going to pretend that that did not happen?”I asked angrily and he ignored me comp

JasperI shook my head as father left, leaving the courtiers clamoring for an audience with both my brothers.A few looked in my direction warily but I furrowed my eyebrows, indicating they would not be welcome. They saw my gaze and meekly turned around.I was not even sure if they had done it out of the forced respect they had to have for us or if they had some other things in mind, but I ignored them and simply straightened my back.If I had to really go and rule my supposed kingdom, I had to find my closest ally and train her soon.But, given the way we fought and bickered every now and then, I did not know how it would fare. Plus, taking her to her home, her territory might invoke all the buried emotions within her.And, maybe she will find that stupid lover of hers there.I was not sure what had given her a panic attack and if going back to her place would make her relive it again.While I was in a dilemma, a hand lightly touched my elbow. I looked behind to see my elder brother,
