CHAPTER 16. The Auction

  Astrid's POV:

  Earlier That Day

  "You know you're fortunate because the vampire king himself is going to be at the auction today," the lady said.

  I was now terrified for my life.

  There isn't a single person who hasn't heard about the Vampire King's ruthlessness. He was notorious for inflicting misery, and no matter how attractive he was, he was cruel.

  Technically, all vampires are heartless, but the Vampire King is notorious for his lack of mercy.

  The fact that all the girls used to have crushes on him but didn't appreciate his characteristic that no one had ever seen him smile.

  He was famous for maintaining a stern countenance with no emotion crossing his face, but the positive part was that he wouldn't give someone more attention than they earned because he was a guy of few words.

  I've never seen him and wish I never had to because he once ridiculed the girls who tried to seduce him in front of the entire media.
