(Elian’s POV) My mind reeled from the revelation. I barely noticed when Lucius swept me up from the sofa, carrying me away to sit behind his desk. He settled me on his strong thighs, holding me tight against him. Tapered fingers carded through my blond hair, keeping my head pressed against his broad chest. At that moment I felt so small, like a house cat before a lion. Luckily for me, this particular lion seemed content to let me live. “I… I don’t believe you.” I said finally. There was no way Caleb would deliver his son to the vampires to be killed. Jasper was his family, his own blood. Lucius had to be lying. “Why do you think Caleb insisted on having Jasper attend the event despite him not knowing a single thing about vampire culture?”“I don’t know? To ease him in gradually?” “To sell him off.” Lucius replied. “There were only two

(Elian’s POV) I bit my lip, watching Lucius without saying anything at first. Memories flashed in my mind, the awfulness of what he had put me through. My hopes dying a painful miserable death when I had realized Lucius didn’t give a damn about me, was only using me. And now he was saying he had only acted that way out of what, jealousy?Anger flared, but beneath it was my need to be heard. Despite the fact that I hated him for what he’d done to me, part of me still liked him. Maybe it was stupid of me, liking him despite what I know of him now, but I couldn’t help it. His hands were warm around mine, strong. Capable. Dependable. And god, I wanted nothing more than to depend on him, no matter how much of a bad idea it was. “I don’t like Jasper. From the very first day he forced himself on me. That time I said I was quitting streaming, he had been hiding in my closet. After that he set up t

(Caleb's POV)My phone beeped with a notification. Dragging my attention from the document I had been reviewing, I picked it up and unlocked it with a smooth gesture. What I saw made my temper rise. Exhaling a taut breath, I stood from my desk, crossing the distance to the sitting area in the centre of the room. My office was done in minimalistic styles, dark colours contrasting with whites and silver.I refrained from decorating it in bright, extravagant colours and designs, not liking the brain fatigue that eventually came with that kind of style. My work was tasking enough, I didn't need to make it worse for myself. Sinking into one of the plush leather sofas, I reread the message my subordinate has sent to me. It was a picture, enclosed with a short message. “The young master has arrived sir at the gala, sir. He came with a plus one.”At first glance, I would have assumed the slender, blonde haired woman in the vivacious red dress was some hussy Jasper was playing with on the s

(Lilith’s POV) A frosty breeze slapped my face the moment my body materialised in the courtyard. Welcoming it, I dragged the icy night air into my lungs. It didn't do much to kill my anger, only leaving me raw and further irritated. I didn't let it show. My eyes swept over the open space, stopping at the group of guards on patrol. They formed an inner circle after the tall fence, protecting the castle judiciously. Among them was the captain of the group, overseeing the patrol. Fully expecting them to acknowledge my presence with a greeting, it rankled when they didn't. Instead they stared right at me, mocking eyes boring directly into my figure instead of downcast with respect. My jaw flexed. After the continuous series of insults that mismatched eyed bitch had hurled at me, I wasn't in the mood for this. There was only so much my pride could tolerate, and I was nearing the edge. Beside me, I felt Kael’s aura darken with offended anger. His mood worsened as we were fully at the
