Love that Kills Shadow of the past
I woke up restless and tensed. The vision I had in my sleep felt like entering someone's memories, as if someone had allowed me to see glimpses of their past. I wondered if it was real. It felt real. It was almost as if I traveled through space and time to witness the moment Estelle met Ash. Although, I couldn't say that I was comfortable watching the two of them... I wondered why I was forced to see it. Was it because I was curious about her before I fell asleep? Well, the problem was, now I had even more questions than I had before. I spent a lot of time in the shower, trying to wash off all the lingering anxieties, but it didn't help. Especially the way Ash looked in that vision at Estelle, which engraved itself in my mind and sent me wave after wave of sourness. Perhaps the reason why I felt this way was that when Ash noticed me, I foolishly assumed that he treated me special, that I was someone unique to him. Now I couldn't shake off the feeling that I could have been yet another
Love that Kills Stressed
Two days later, Ash was still away, handling something Calvel called "important matters." Calvel returned alone and immediately restarted my self-defense training. With him, Nicor, and Amanda in their full teacher modes, my preparations for the upcoming Blue Moon Ball in the King's castle became extremely intense. Nonetheless, whenever I had a moment to think, my mind returned to the matter of Ash and Estelle's relationship.Ash must have loved her. All the more, I wondered what made Estelle kill herself. The woman in my vision seemed strong and confident. I couldn't imagine someone like her breaking down and giving up on her life."Nala, you're not focused!" Calvel growled as I tried to punch the sandbag in front of me."I'm trying!" I swore. "It's just… I don't have the muscles to do that…"Calvel sighed and crossed his arms. "You don't need them. All you need is to know how to throw a punch and then do it using your inner force."I dropped my hands in frustration. "If there's a swi
Love that Kills The Blue Moon Ball
Ash's fiery gaze stayed on me the entire time we were in the car. He held my hand in his, his thumb constantly tracing lines across my palm. My whole body shivered, and I secretly wished we never made it to the castle. I wished that we had lost our way, lost our driver, and found ourselves somewhere alone.I bit my lip as another shudder pierced through me, heating everything within me. I didn't take my hand away. I didn't want him to stop whatever he was doing. God, I wanted him to never stop touching me."You're so beautiful," he whispered, and I all but moaned. I could see his gaze wandering down to my neck and then to my cleavage. I could see the tips of his fangs flashing in the faint moonlight, and I pressed my thighs together. "I will be very indecent when we get to the ball. Bear with me," he warned.I swallowed hard. I must have become the horniest woman on the planet since I thought I wouldn't mind him taking me in public. I craved him, and my desire grew by the second.The
Love that Kills Indecent
I shifted in Ash's embrace and faced him. Seconds after he made his bold statement, his expression showed nothing but absolute confidence. He daringly kept his eyes on Morfran while my heart hammered like it was going to burst out of my chest. I knew that it was all an act. It must have been, but still, hearing him say that his heart belonged to me made all the pesky butterflies jolt and bounce in my stomach."You cannot seriously talk about the archaic blood bond?" Prince Metis suddenly interjected, stepping forward. "This ancient stuff has not been witnessed in over a thousand years!"Ash smirked. "And yet, I can feel the bond when I'm with Nala. I can feel it with every fiber within me."Alvara walked in front of me, frowning as she locked her eyes on me. "What you feel is her blood, nothing more!" she snarled before raising her eyes to Ash. "What we had was real! How dare you reject it!"My hands fisted as I looked at her. I seriously wanted to punch her, but with all my luck, I w
Love that Kills Sacrifice
I felt as if time stopped... or that it was my heart that stopped beating. Alvara's lips stretched into a grim smile while her eyes widened in excitement. Metis's stare was fixed on me, his tongue disgustingly tracing the edges of his fangs.Ash's eyes blazed, and he straightened in his seat. "King Morfran, you cannot be serious about this." His voice trembled in barely containable rage."Oh, I am deadly serious." Morfran's eyes zeroed in on me. "If she wants to raise her social status, she must be prepared to pay the price. Fortunately, I find her quite"—he inhaled through his nose, sniffing my scent—"valuable."I looked at my hand with a still-rouging bite mark and then at the King and Ash. Perhaps giving the King a few drops of my blood couldn't hurt me... beyond the level I could bear, but he didn't mention how much of my blood he would drink...Ash leaned forward, shifting to the edge of his seat. "My King, please be reasonable. I am weakened, and you are the most powerful vampir
Love that Kills Save him
"Calvel! Calvel stop! We have to do something!" I struggled as he dragged me through the corridor. "They're going to kill him!"Calvel pulled me to a halt and pushed me against the wall. "What do you expect me to do?! Fight the entire royal army?! Ash knew the risks! He's been through it before!"I shook my head, tears streaming down my cheeks. "He offered double the amount of his blood, and Morfran himself said that it will probably kill Ash... Especially since he is going to inject him with silver after they take his blood."Calvel growled out a curse and dragged his fingers through his hair. I looked at him as he gritted his teeth and closed his eyes. "Nala, there's nothing we can do," he strained."B-but he will suffer!" I cried out. "What if he—" I stopped myself before I could finish."Nala..." Calvel grabbed my shoulders and lowered his head to level his eyes with mine. "We need to hope that he didn't overestimate his strength. He also drank from you not long ago. I only hope t
Love that Kills His Cure
Ash's eyes flared as he lifted his head from the pillow. His nostrils widened as the drops of my blood slowly flew from the cut on my hand. I lied about not being scared—I was terrified because I knew that I would not stop him no matter how much of my blood he wanted to drink. I knew that he needed it to heal.His fangs flashed and grazed my flesh as I lowered my hand. I braced myself, knowing that this time his bite could be different. This time his instincts would lead him, and they would tell him to do what he should do to recover. He neither would be gentle nor care about me. I knew that. I accepted that."Nala," he rasped before licking the blood from the cut. His whole body shuddered, the chains on his arms and chest rattling. The way he lay there, resembling a wild animal with nothing but a pair of sweatpants on, tightened my chest. I closed my eyes, and then I felt it. His fangs pierced my skin, sinking deeply into my flesh. A shuddered breath escaped me as the pain radiated t
Love that Kills The Price of Bliss
I spent the next two hours in bed with Ash. I couldn't tell when my embarrassment disappeared, and I started to enjoy being with him. We embraced each other and exchanged soft kisses. Every single detail of it felt new to me. This kind of intimacy was something I had never experienced before—absolute bliss.Giving my blood to him left my body exhausted beyond my limits. I could barely move. Ash took care of me. He prepared a warm bath with oils that were supposed to help me regenerate. Then he lifted me in his arms and carried me into the bathtub. He gently soaked my body in water and then sat by my side, watching me."You're beyond beautiful," he whispered, his eyes roaming up and down my body, leaving scorching trails wherever they landed."Don't say things like that," I muttered, trying to cover my breasts.He smiled. "But that's the truth. You might be the most beautiful creature in the entire Dark Realm."My eyebrows rose. "A creature?"He chuckled. "We all are creatures. I'm awa
