Before Zachariah can say anything in return, the Vampire King and Queen then step back as they seem to be surrounded by darkness and then they are gone. Zachariah then pulls me into his arms and says,“So?… Yeah, that was…”“I know, I think I am going to like her... Lorelei says that she hasn’t changed from when Margaret made friends with her. Maybe I can even learn a few things from her.”Zachariah pulls me in even tighter against him and growls low,“I don’t think so… You are enough of a handful as it is without adding the cheekiness I just saw in her…”I growl at his playful words. However, Zachariah then makes me yelp and then moan as he bites down on his mark on my shoulder. Zachariah then growls against my skin, making me giggle when we hear Raphael’s voice from the other side of the tent flap.“Luna, can we enter yet? Everyone is here now and they

I nod, take a deep breath, and turn around. As the next song starts, Malik bows as I curtsy. He then steps closer and places his hand on my waist as my hand goes to his shoulder and our other hands connect. He then starts us dancing.I must admit he wasn’t a bad dancer, but then I had only learned to dance first from Zachariah and then from Edward. Malik takes us around the dance floor, not stopping as one song turns into two and then, by the end of the third song, he has this strange smirk on his face.When he stops, he takes a small step back allowing him to bow slightly as I curtsy once more, he then steps back into me wrapping his arm around my waist and holding me close and tight as he leans in and skims his lips against my ear and whispers,“You have failed, my dear, and now that I have you in my arms, he's not getting you back. You have had his pups. Now you can give me the heir that Rania never could…”“In your dream

THIRD PERSON...She then pulls out of his hold, turns, grabs his cheeks in both her hands, whispers the ending of the spell once more and then kisses him. She lets go, allowing him to slump and fall to the floor with the other guard. Summer then crouches down and checks their pockets for keys. They didn’t have any, so she hoped that the door they were guarding wasn’t locked.When Summer returned to her feet, Darius was standing by the door. She looked at him and he looked down at the guards and asked,“Are you okay?”Summer smiled and stepped over to stand next to him. She then crouches down next to him and says,“I know you are older than your years and when you are old enough, never try to take advantage of a female, as you never know when they will fight back.”Darius laughs, “Summer, have you met my mother?”Summer laughs with him and nods her head. She then stands a

THIRD PERSON...Zelda lifts her head to the full moon and howls loudly. Everyone in the ballroom that wasn’t already on their knees does at the authority within that howl, recognising her as their Queen. However, Malik was not one that went to his knee. He fought the impulse to obey, keeping his feet along with a few of the warriors that were still standing around Yasmine.Malik nods his head and the remaining 4 warriors standing around her attack. Zelda didn’t expect this as she had only just noticed that Malik and a few others were still on their feet. With Lorelei’s warning, Zelda manages to dodge three out of the four. Unfortunately, the fourth one made contact, scraping his claws deep into her side.Lorelei works fast to try to heal as much of it as possible, while Zelda tries to hold on to her shift and continues to fight the surrounding warriors. Unfortunately, it doesn’t take long for the continuous fighting to take its toll, as these warriors are nearly 3 times the size of he

"... You love the power that I would give you...” “No… Well, maybe that was what I originally wanted, but now…” Kastrath places his hands on the upper parts of my arms and turns me around, so I am now looking at him. For someone as old as he is, he does look rather handsome. He then moves one of his hands to my cheek and, using his hold there, tilts my head up and steps in that little closer, leaning down until his lips are just millimetres from mine before he continues. “After spending time with you, in your dreams, and when I see and touch you like this, I fall more and more for you.” He then closes that small gap and presses his lips to mine. I don’t return the kiss, however; I don’t struggle or pull away from him, either. I feel as he slides his other hand around my waist, pulling me tight into his body; I lift my hands and place them on his chest as he then slightly pulls back from his kiss and whispers against my lips. “All it takes is just one word. Just one small word and
