◼Rose POV◼ After I had some blood from my lover, I asked for slaves. I needed blood, my monster side felt restless, and we needed all the blood we could get. As I waited patiently, the guards brought me, ten slaves. Dismissing everyone, I control each of the slaves. They were puppets for me to do as I pleased. Smirking, I drink their blood. I didn’t intend to kill them, but something took over me, and I had drained them. Calling my servants, I ask them to bring me more slaves. Two of my guards rejected my request. They had orders from Liam not to give me over ten slaves a day. I had crossed the limit today. As I fist my hands, I feel the anger. Hissing towards my guards, I unconsciously snap my fingers and make them my puppets. Controlling their minds, I asked one of them to get me, five maids.

◼Rose POV◼ After Cullen left, I went back to work. The days passed, and I was getting ready for the gathering. Honestly, I was excited. I couldn’t wait to see everyone’s face, especially King Nikolas. The surprise he would have when he sees me arriving. We had two more days to go, and I had prepared a thorough plan. I had everything planned for the men who would join me and what I would wear. It was a special occasion. As I look outside my window, I notice my people in their daily life. My clan was immense; I had over four thousand rogues, vampires, witches, humans, and hybrids. Yet, we all live in harmony, and I was well respected. As I stand straight looking at them, I hear a slight knock on my door. “Come in,” I said.

◼Rose POV◼ I couldn’t believe it. We couldn’t use our powers. I was stuck with the person I hated the most, and I wasn’t able to use my powers. Stuttering, I try to form words. Our mind control powers couldn’t work, but what intrigued me more was that we have the same ability. Taking a step back, I look at him furiously. My monster was getting pissed, and I know I would snap any moment. The twitching in my arm was hurting. Every time my arm twitched, I knew my monster was frustrated, annoyed, or angry. “You!” I said through gritted teeth. “Rose…” Nikolas said as he approached me. “Don’t fucking Rose me! I’m not Rose… I’m Queen Rose for you!” I said as I looked at him.

   ◼Rose POV◼ What was happening? I had to surrender myself to his kisses. Addictive kisses that had my body burning. There was this strange feeling in me I couldn’t explain. His lips were soft and warm. His expert kisses had my legs quivering. I pushed my tongue into his mouth, exploring every inch of this delicious man. I got distracted in kissing him; I had forgotten what my purpose was. Opening my eyes, I push Nikolas. Then, panting softly, I turn around and walk away. I was cleaning my mouth with the back of my hand. Reaching my bedroom, I close the door and lean against it. Gripping my hair, I yell. I needed to let out wh

◼Rose POV◼ Once I had stayed alone with the donors, I stood up and ordered them to undress. Checking the three donors, I chose one. He was a young human male, around twenty-two, blue eyes as the sky and white skin as porcelain. He had a slim but toned body. Long straight hair with a slight red highlight. A bad boy. He had two body tattoos—one tiger on his left pectoral and a snake down his thigh. My type. Smiling, I ask him to join me. I had ordered the rest to leave. I was spending my afternoon with him. I get ready for a short, torturing time. Thanking the donor, he leaves. He was a good fuck and an excellent meal. Somehow he had satisfied my hunger. Once I had my gear on, I headed do
