DAUGHTER OF THE VAMPIRE KING

SCARLETT POVWe have not had any extreme trouble over the last few years since my mother and father repaired their relationship. Except for the slight increase of rogues crossing our borders, we all have been enjoying the peace. It's my eighteenth birthday tomorrow. I am so excited my wolf Ruth and my vampire Cara keep telling me that tomorrow we can and will confirm that Phoenix is indeed our mate. Cara has known Phoenix was our mate since we were around five that I remember. I shifted early at around two years old. All I remember from that age is them always arguing quietly in the back of my mind, but the one thing Ruth agreed with Cara on was being mates with Phoenix. But Ruth always said we wouldn't know for sure until we were seventeen or eighteen. It is also the blood moon tomorrow night. Mother and Auntie Josephine have been putting together the blood moon ball as everyone loved it. So when Father and uncle Noah suggested that maybe they could make it a joint tradi

HUNTER POV  I run, following Ruth's scent. I find her at one of the many lakes scattered around the kingdom. I whimper and go to my belly as I approach her from the side. "We are sorry! Scarly!! Please forgive us, we really didn't mean it." "That hurt Hunter! What Nat said! To know you don't believe in me, it hurts. At least I know Phoenix does.." "I truly am sorry, and I do believe you. I just wanted you to be sure, that's all!" I crawl a little closer, dragging my belly as I move. "I can never stay mad at you Hunter, maybe you should teach Nat how to be a better brother." She laughs and so do I "Nat a

PHOENIX/SOREN POVMy eyes stopped flickering as Soren backed off. We then went on to dance and dance until I whisper "Butterfly I want to be alone with you, do you want to get out of here?"She smiles and nods. I take her hand and we head back to the castle. Once we make it to my room, Soren takes control. I close the door and grab her around the waist, pulling her in for our first kiss. I use passion and dominance. I back us up, pushing her hard against the wall. She returns my kiss with just as much hunger, making me believe this is what she wants, but as I slide my hand down the side of her body and I reach her thigh, she seems to tense a little. As I move my hand back up, I slide it under the hem of her dress, coming into contact with her bare thigh, making her shiver. I take this as a good sign. When I reach her hip, I extend my claws and move my kiss down her neck, wanting to both drink from her and mark her as well. My fangs

SCARLETT POVI’m still a little scared of what is to come, but with the pleasure and sparks still running through me, I give him a slight nod. He then goes back to sucking on the spot where his mark will go and I feel his fangs lengthen, he scrapes them along the skin a couple of times making a shiver of pleasure flow through me again before he sinks them in, as the pain gives way to pure pleasure, he thrusts his hips forward hard tearing through my innocence and burying himself deep inside me in one move. He holds himself still and tight to me as I scream out with the pain, all pleasure now gone and tears falling out of the corner of my eyes. He removes his fangs from where his mark now is and he swipes his tongue over the skin to seal it. He moves his kisses, trailing them back up my neck to my lips, and then he looks into my eyes. “Butterfly? Are you okay?”“It hurts Soren… Why did you??” I can’t help t

SCARLETT POV“Scarlett! If you don’t stop...” I feel him shaking slightly as he tightens his arms around me even more. Even after what Soren did last night, I still feel safe in his arms. I always have, but no one seems to understand that, the same as they won't understand why I will choose to stay with him even after what Soren did. I then whisper in between kisses,“Nix! Can you...” I then look up into his eyes.“Are you sure? Butterfly? I don't want to scare or hurt you anymore! I don't want you to think I am just taking my pleasure from you...”I can hear the nervousness in his voice and I know it will take time, but we are meant to be together. I move my hand lightly over his skin up to his chest. I smile as he hisses low again. I place my hand on his cheek and slowly pull myself up to place a soft kiss on his lips.I guess that was all the answer he needed as it didn’t take him l
