Daniel's P.O.V"Your Majesty, Her Majesty is neglecting the Queen's responsibilities. I think it's better for us to bring in a Concubine-"However, before Marquis Sleth could finish his words I lost the leash of my temper, slamming my fist on the table, making the room fall into an abyss of silence."The Queen is not well. Empress Dowager is happily managing her responsibilities till she's feeling well. There's no need for a Concubine." The words left my lips leaving a bitter aftertaste on my tongue.How dare they! How dare they talk about me marrying another woman when I'm already married!? The nerve they have...My sudden outburst of rage made the nobles cautious as they exchanged uneasy glances.Marquis Sleth was still recovering from the shock of my sudden anger, had no choice but to lower his gaze. But, I could sense an aura about him that was screaming that he wasn't going to give up on this easily.Taking a deep breath, I calmed myself down.I have to protect Eleanor and Daniel
Daniel's P.O.V"Mom?"My feet grew roots under the ground as I stared at the figure of my mother in suprise. There she was standing there bearing an aura of elegance around her like always."What brings you here, mom?" I asked as I stood there in my place, frozen."Would my busy son have the time to accompany this old lady to my palace?"Her words for some reason seemed to pierce my heart in the most painful way that could have existed, making me groan internally.Busy son...The words made me bow my head in shame as I stared at the cold, marble floor.How could I ever be too busy for the woman who taught me how to love myself when everyone around me told me how much of a useless bastard I was."Mom, I..." Words. Reasons. Excuses. My brain couldn't frame anything in that moment. I just stood there in front of my mother like a criminal standing in front of arbitrator guilty of his crime."Daniel honey, come with me, won't you?" Staring at the cold floor didn't let me realize that the wa
Eleanor's P.O.V Tick... tick... tick... The faint sound of the clock ticking rang in my ears as I was resting my head against the door while sitting on the floor in this dark room where Daniel locked me. When will he come back? Never in a million years I thought that I would wait for the arrival of my tormentor. But, here I was. Sitting on the floor, hearing the time tick by as I waited for him to come. For Daniel to come. Just how many days more will he keep me locked in this pitch dark room? Supplying me with just enough food to survive but not letting me eat too much to gain enough energy to try and escape from this shitty cage Daniel has built for me. The air in the room was so oppressive and suffocating, that it was just hard for me to breathe or even think of breathing. I could feel the desperation and hopelessness creeping up my skin like bugs as each day seemed to pass according to the clock outside the door of this dark cage. It wasn't the first time I have been in a si
Eleanor's P.O.V "You all can leave." Daniel's cold voice filled my ears, making me shiver down to my core as I stared at the ground. The knights which were once standing beside me immediately vanished as the door closed behind me.Run! Run! Run! My subconsciousness seemed to be screaming at me. However, my feet refused to follow it's orders as I remained frozen in my spot under Daniel's sharp gaze."Look up, Eleanor." Daniel's command reached my ears as my body involuntarily followed as I gazed into his sea of black. His eyes seemed to have a reddish glint of the desires of a vampire which Daniel wanted to suppress but was unable to for some reason. "Why are you reaking of blood, flower?" His voice sounded concerned as he immediately picked me up in his arms.I don't know why. I don't know why he looked so pained as if someone had ripped his heart out.Why was he in pain? I didn't like it. No matter how much I hated him. I didn't like the fact that My Daniel was in pain.Daniel pla
Daniel's P.O.V I stared at the Eleanor below me, wearing a rather treacherous, lustful gaze. Those irresistible, delicious pink lips. Oh! How I wish I could devour them right now."Daniel?" The voice of Eleanor took me aback, lulling me out of my thoughts as I stared at the enchantress beneath me."What, flower?""Kiss me, please. I don't want to remember. I don't want to remember anything right now. Make me forget it all. Just hold me close. Okay?" Eleanor spoke, looking half intoxicated as she wrapped her arms around my neck. I hesitated, my mind filled with conflicting thoughts and desires. I wanted to give Eleanor what she asked for, but I was afraid of losing control over myself and doing something she might not like. "Eleanor," I whispered, my voice barely audible. "I want to make you forget, to hold you close and kiss you. But I can't do that when I know you might regret it tomorrow morning."Confusion clouded Eleanor's eyes as she searched my face for something only she kn
Eleanor's P.O.V "Fuck, flower. You are less of an innocent flower and more of an lewd enchantress begging to be fucked into her place." Daniel cursed under his breath as he ripped his white shirt in two.I watched Daniel's body tremble as he stared into my drunken eyes. I was drunk. Yes, drunk of pain. His love. This room's vibe. I am sure I'm going to feel awful when the sun rises. But... but those eyes. Those eyes resemble the one's of the Daniel I met back in the forest, not holding any other thoughts than love for me. And, of course... concern.Seeing those, how could I maintain my anger? I just could remember him and me being love.I accept. I accept. I was wrong. I cannot harm a single hair on this man's body. How can I kill him? I'd rather kill myself to escape his shadow but not kill him. The cause of it all. How... how can he say he's killing me from inside just to protect me? I just can't understand this man at all. I love him. No doubt. But, understanding him is beyond
Eleanor's P.O.V Warm.It's so warm. My mind is empty but everything feels warm.I gently opened my tired, heavy eyes to find the source of this extreme warmth in the coldness I've been feeling for past 18 nights.As my vision gradually came into focus, I realized that I was lying in a comfortable bed, and in front of me was a handsome sleeping Daniel who looked so peaceful, sleeping like an absolute angel.Wait... WHAT A HANDSOME SLEEPING DANIEL!?My mind immediately grew alert as my body went stiff.I tried not to recall the events that led me to be in this strange situation but I still did. The memories hit me harder than a rock as my whole body started to heat up. God! What was I thinking yes-Before, that thought could actually reach a conclusion, I felt Daniel stir a little in his sleep as I felt something grow hard in my abdomen. THE FUCKING HELL! HE DIDN'T FUCKING PULL OUT HIS LENGTH FROM INSIDE OF ME THE WHOLE NIGHT!?Kill me... Just. Fucking. Kill. Me.I tried to suppress
Eleanor's P.O.V."Flower? Wake up." The distinctively warm voice of Daniel, rang in my ears as my nostrils were filled with the heavenly aroma of coffee. My eyes snapped opened at the heavenly scent. However, as soon as my eyes opened, a strange pain coursed through my body, making me wish I were dead.Somehow, my inconvenience was somehow sensed and understood by Daniel even without me saying a word."What happened, Eleanor? Are you not well?" Daniel asked, standing up from the chair he was seated on which was placed next to the bed I was lying on."Don't know. My head feels really heavy." I spoke, in a low tone as I held my heavy head in between my palms. "Is it because of me? I'm really sorry. I shouldn't have lost control." The low tone of Daniel seemed to shock me as I raised my head from between my palms to see the look on his face. And, I seemed to witness the most funny thing ever. His appearance strikingly resembled that of a dog. A big black dog whose ears were drooped do
