~ DELANEY's POV ~
Knowing he can read my mind, I tried my best not to think of anything and stared at him.
"Hmph, I guess you have so, I want you to show me."
Show him?
How will I do that?
He gave me a toothy grin exposing his fangs which means he read my mind. "It's easy darling, you pick the one you're comfortable in using, then show me how you did it."
I raised my chin, "What happens if I don't do it?"
"What happens?" His icy gray eyes went to my neck, sending chills down my spine.
I understood what that meant, he'll bite me and suck my blood. I shook my head fiercely, "You wouldn't do that"
He slowly stood up and stalk towards me, "Lesson one, never threaten a vampire, it sends a thrill into us that'll make them want to fulfill It at all costs."
He stopped a few feet away from me before speaking, "And trust me when I say I love the threats."
"W–What's yo
I freeze instantly upon hearing that, somehow I knew the lady is a vamp. Oh God, why am I so unlucky? Is she going to kill me now? "You're the new alpha king's concubine, right?" Concubine? She pressed a blade to the back, not too hard to wound me, "Answer me." I nodded quickly,"Yes, I am. Please don't hurt me." I whimpered. "Quiet. Look, I can help you get out of here, there's a way out, but that depends on if you want to leave." I blinked, "You know a way out?" That wasn't what I was expecting. My heart rate spiked up in excitement, knowing I can leave here without depending on Knox. I can leave before my one-week expires. "Yes, but I don't have much time, just do as I say. Got it?" I nodded and listened to her plan, "Remember, don't tell anyone about it or else you'll be killed." With that, she slipped out of the dressing room, leaving me in my shocked state. Not long after that, I heard... "De
I open the door only to freeze in surprise upon seeing Knox! Why the hell is he here instead of that lady? My heart began racing, thinking he might be here for my decision when my time isn't up yet. He gave me one week, there are two days left, so why did come? "Aren't you going to welcome me in, dear Delaney?" Too shocked to say anything, I silently open the door and stepped aside. My mind began reeling with excuses I could come up with if he brings up the topic. I need to come up with a reasonable lie, something that can delay him. Did vendetta say something about his behavior different towards me? I can use that as an advantage to get out of this. As I thought of all this, I made sure my walls were tightly shut though, I'm not sure whether it'll have any effect on him. Vendetta said powerful and ancient vampires could still hear your thoughts no matter how thick your walls are. The thought made me wonder how old Knox is, he can't be an
Knox POV ~ A familiar pang in my throat made me clench my fist, I need to feed quickly. I don't think I can hold it anymore, If this goes on, I'll go bloodlust and that will be terrible since I'm an ancient vampire. It'll be hard for anyone to get me under control. A week before the selection, I didn't get a chance to feed because I was busy with preparations for the selection. Also, I preferred not to feed on my old concubines, I was waiting for my new chosen human. The little I took from her the last time wasn't enough, I wanted more. Recalling how her blood tasted made me salivate and has been keeping me on the edge any time I think of her, It's been taking more than I expected not to go to her, and it's all my fault! I gave her one fucking week for some unknown reason — something I've never done before, especially for a human! Left for me, I would have fed from her and fucked her senseless on the selection day, but I couldn't. Something about her made me co
Delaney's POV ~ Tears began streaming down my face, "You came! You're really here!" Now I have hope of leaving. She gazes at my tears with a hint of irritation on her face. I heard her mutter 'humans' before she clears her throat. "We don't have much time, we have to leave now before anyone shows up." She said urgently. I studied her for a moment and couldn't help but ask, "What's your name? I mean I can't keep calling you 'that lady' right?" "Amira, my name is Amira." I nodded, "Why are you helping me? What will you gain by doing so? Hope you aren't expecting you to pay with my blood, as you can see, I haven't fully recovered from one yet." No matter what, I know she isn't helping me out of goodwill, I'm smart enough to know that she has her motives, just that I don't know what that is. I know it's foolish of me to put all my hopes on a vampire — one I just met, but I've got no choice, she's the only one who has
Valleys Kingdom ~ After helping Delaney escape, Amira didn't linger around, she could hear the rouge vampires running towards her. If she stays in their territory a minute longer, she would die a horrible death. She heaved a soft sigh as she has achieved success this time, but also dreads what awaited her as she headed to the city. She's sure that Knox has already found out hell, he might be on his way here, but she doesn't give a damn! Furthermore, she has achieved her goal already, so she'd take whatever he throws her way – anything so long as he won't have any female by his side. Amira too was a human when they first brought her here, you can say she's the first concubine Knox has, his first chosen! Her case is a little different from the new humans coming here. She suffered the most because Knox's hatred for humans was still fresh on his mind. It was at that time he lost his parents! At first, Knox gave her the illusion of wanting her, of lo
Rakel's POV Everything has been planned out that evening, I've gathered the strongest werewolves in my pack ready to attack valleys if they don't bring the girl out. I know it's unreasonable starting a war between us but werewolves and vampires are mutual enemies, no one will give a damn about what happens between us. The fact that the Vampires took what was supposed to be mine means they initiated the fight. I have every goddamn reason to fight back. From my investigation, I found a way into their kingdom, I ordered my men to remain hidden in the woods thinking of a way to cross the rogue's territory. I know it'll be a loss for us if we fight head-on with them because it's their home, they'll always be an advantage. The best way to deal with them is strategy! Just when I decide to go in, my ear picked a sound. I told my boys to stand down through the mind link. We all stood there waiting to see who that was. Soon, a small frame ran out,
Delaney's POV The rays of sunshine glinted on my face, making me groan softly. I turned on my side, so I can sleep comfortably on the bed when it registered. Bed...why am I lying on the bed? The events of everything that happened back at Valleys flooded into my head, making me tense. Knox, Werewolves... My eyes flew open only to meet familiar dark eyes. His words drifted into my mind – the ones he spoke of before I fainted. "Mate! You are mine!" I was taken aback when I saw him glaring at me like I did something wrong, "What?" I asked, glancing around. I guess I'm in some kind of infirmary, making me wonder if we've left the vampire kingdom. The thought dispersed as soon as it came because it's not possible, this must be the werewolves pack. 'Oh, Delaney, you've done it again. I thought escaping the vampires is all I have to worry about, but now it seems I have to bother about the werewolves too.' I thought depressingly. Instead o
I didn't freeze for a long time, the need to cum overrode the shock of seeing Rakel. My gaze remained locked on his as I continued pumping my hand rhythmically in and out of me. I can imagine what I look like at the moment, flushed cheeks, desperate and needy like a slut. I felt ashamed of my actions, but had no choice but to keep going. My mind was screaming at me to stop, but my body was saying another thing. For some unknown reason, him watching my movement with a heated gaze made it erotic in some way. It didn't feel weird, like when my stepdad always stands there with disgusting lust in his eyes. The look in Rakel's eyes was longing, pure desire, and something I couldn't fathom in my ecstatic state. I had to break eye contact when I felt a familiar pressure in my tummy, which tells me I'm near. My eyes shut as I came, moaning out loud. Few minutes passed before I realize what just happened. I jolted up from the bed, taking the sheets, so I can wrap them ar
