Feast of Night: The King's Bride

Eve didn't ask for any of it. A tragic childhood, the scorn of the villagers, a mother whose body was never found and a stepmother who constantly tried to get rid of her. They said it was her sins weighing down on her. She was an outcast- the filth that no one wanted around them, yet the beauty everyone wished to possess. When the dark creatures attacked their village, Eve was sacrificed. She was after all, her father's murderer. They were only too happy to push her towards the dark abyss. Her life was burning down in front of her. But that was until she met him. Theodore de la Nuit was tired of living under the shadow of his uncle. He wanted the regency to end. He wanted to clean out the court off of the traitors. He wanted his revenge against the vampires- against those leeches that stole his childhood from him. The monsters took everything from him- his parents, the joy of his first shift and the power that should have been his from birth. When his uncle took an interest in a country bumpkin, he knew that the time had come. He had never seen Luke so caught in the web of any woman. For the first time, the man had dared to lower his guards. He wanted to kill her in front of him and initiate the start of his revenge. But that was until he met her. Will the two kill each other before they give themselves a chance, or will the mate bond bind them against all odds?

Chapter 86: Then don't

Eve shifted back and forth in her new room nervously, her eyes darting to the wooden double doors every now and then. It had been a few hours since she had blurted out her feelings shamelessly to the regent yet still there was no sign of him. 

"I know what I want?!" She exclaimed, throwing her hands up in frustration. "Really Eve?! Do you, really?"

It was one thing to have said that out loud in front of the regent. But the very thought of his teeth sinking into her scared her more than it excited her. She felt ridiculous standing there in that huge room in her worn-out white dress. Everything around her seemed to scream at her that she did not belong. 

If Litty were alive, she would have even made some stupid joke about a lamb waiting for a wolf to devour her. Eve sighed, shaking her head. her words started to sound more ridiculous with each passing moment. For once, she felt like her intelligence had fallen to the level of her stepsister.
