Luxiana is the daughter of a king, which makes her a royal princess. For many girls, this is a dream, living in a castle surrounded by servants, attending prestigious parties with equally prestigious guests. Meet princes as handsome as in fairy tales, or enjoy all the advantages given to the noble class. That's what anyone would think when they hear the word princess, but that was not the case for Luxiana. No, not for the daughter of a slave. Her mother, a slave brought back to the kingdom by the knights after the conquest of a barbarian territory had attracted the king's attention with her great beauty. Silver hair and deep, bewitching blue eyes. He had not been able to curb his impulses and had waited for night to fall to interfere in the premises intended for slaves in order to abuse the young woman. An abominable act unworthy of the sovereign of a kingdom but like any excuse for his horrible act, he had pretexted witchcraft. Because how could he, a king, have stooped to unite wit
Vladimir understands or at least tries to understand what may well be going on in Luxiana's head. For a princess, she is rather scared of taste, and that comforts him in this inexplicable need to take care of her. Ah, he shouldn't but he can't help it. He is as though hypnotized by his instinct which, however, should dictate to him to feed on this fresh and appetizing young girl, on the contrary, dictates to him to protect her. A strange thought for a pureblood of his rank, especially considering that she is in fact only a vulgar human.This miserable race is only good for providing them with the nutrients they need to feed them, the vampires. He huffed in abandon seeing the girl in front of him, she was shaking, her eyes watering, he could on the one hand ask her why she insists on not returning, which is the normal reaction of any abductee, or on the other hand, use his vampire powers to hypnotize this human and make her say and do whatever he wants, but he doesn't know why, the simp
The situation is deep but he will not be discouraged so easily. Certainly he gains nothing but it would make him happy that Luxiana stops thinking like a defeatist in life. She's young compared to him, he can even tell she's just a child, she's beautiful and has her whole life ahead of her, at least he'll make sure of that. So there is no reason for her to live hoping to die or to lower herself so much.She needs to laugh, hope and exalt life.In front of her look, he just sighed deciding to change the subject, this one is a little too angry for his taste." You are hungry? I'll have the table laid"Changing the subject, Vladimir stood up, not leaving another opportunity for Luxiana to speak, existential debates, especially if they are denigrating, do not interest him. He turned to see her still seated and he huffed holding out his hand."I wouldn't enjoy this meal without the company of such a lovely girl"Slowly Luxiana lifted her face and he could see a trace of blush on her cheeks,
Nina was fulminating and everyone in the kitchen could see it. The reason? Everyone could also realize it since they all feel the same revolt. How can their precious Lord accept having this impure being at his side? It's unacceptable and so revolting, but the one who is the angriest is Nina. She had to serve this shabby being against her will to believe that their Master had recently lost his mind. And now what does she hear? He who has always been locked up in his apartments for centuries, who has always been reluctant to eat as much good blood as his rank requires, or even appetizers as she calls cooked meals, ordered that it be prepared a feast for two?The others first thought that it was certainly a ploy by their Lord to ensure the quality of the blood that this human will give him, if she's well fed, she will be tastier to him. Their excuse for this, the girl is so skinny and even looks sick, she too can see it but she knows better too. Yes, she knows better than all of them here
The dining room hadn't really changed, it was like in his memories and he doesn't know if it was out of nostalgia or out of habit, he started walking around the table stroking the chairs and the cutlery as if inspecting them. For the three servants, it was a rather painful spectacle to see because it reflected the fact that not only did their Master no longer have to pose in this place, which was nevertheless loaded with memories, but that at this moment, these memories had such heavy meanings and feelings weighed on their Lord. They were afraid that he would get depressed again and that despite his goodwill to want to move forward, to ignore past sorrows, he would shut himself up again.It was such a difficult situation! In this room, he had giggles since his childhood with his loving parents, and after they left, he was comforted there by the woman whom he loved with infinite and passionate love. All these feelings, they know, for them vampires who live eternity, who feel the emotion
The dinner was quiet, the servants around watched with apprehension as their master ate thinking that maybe he wouldn't find it to his liking. Especially the cooker, because it had been centuries since their Lord had eaten.They looked at the woman accompanying him and frowned. Vladimir also stopped looking to the side to find Luxiana eyeing her dish. She hadn't tasted it from the start and wondered why."Luxiana, don't you like the meal?" Do you want something in particular? »The cooker appeared coming in front of the young woman."My lady, if you have any preference, order it and I'll get it done for you"Nina in the distance almost choked, what was this story that these men have of being very caring with this vulgar human? Whether the cooker is treating her as their mistress or their Lord, everyone treats her as if she is the owner of the mansion. She was sure, this woman has already started using evil charms on their Lord, she has to do something."This meal was made with the best
Luxiana jumped at these words. Of course, she doesn't mind Vladimir touching her in the least, she found herself yearning for his touch. But after her thoughts from earlier, she realizes that it would be senseless and painful for her to continue enjoying and willing that touch, especially if she's done away with the feelings she's beginning to feel. She is not naive, perhaps she could have taken this emotion as a simple recognition of Vladimir's tenderness towards her, but she knows better what this feeling means that enlarges her heart and her chest. It's love.How does she know? She has had a crush on someone in the past, she remembers those feelings very well in her. But unlike Vladimir, the object of her desire was like everyone else in this kingdom where she had had the misfortune to be born, he despised her and had not hesitated to tell her so on several occasions. It was the high priest of the kingdom, she had believed at that moment, as he greeted her warmly in front of the cro
Vladimir instantly scowled at Luxiana's response. Even if the latter did not notice him too busy ogling the ground, certainly to escape his gaze, Vladimir had a dark face that of course his servants quickly noticed. It's been centuries now since they've seen that kind of expression on their Lord's face, or indeed any other expression. But at this moment, their Lord seems to be restraining a certain anger and not far from wanting the reason for this sudden emotion, they first want to prevent it from escalating. Their Lord is an expressionless, detached, and quiet person, at least like all high-ranking vampires; because they must control their emotions so as not to succumb to them. But for their Lord, it was more so after the tragedies he faced. But at this very moment, as he gazes at his new servant with those troubled yet inquisitive eyes, they are afraid that their Lord will eventually express this dull and dumb anger and frighten this poor young girl. They were about to d
