"I might look drunk, Your Highness," she gulped. "But I'm not. This is my first and last warning to you. If you don't stay away from me, I will surely destroy you and your people." "Are you sure?" His gray eye interlocked into hers. Hazel rolled her eyes and held the hem of her dress so that she wouldn't trip. She could barely see now, especially with the aid of that terrible headache raking her skull. However, just a slight error and she wobbled all over him. His grip was held tightly to her waist but she pushed him away from her as she said, "Husband, you mistake lust for love. This is a warning, you will regret this." "Wife, there is a lot you need to learn from me. Like knowing how to tell a lie. Nevertheless, I shall give you another two weeks to take an act of revenge on me, if you don't succeed, I won't hesitate to make you mine even against your wish. If you do succeed, I am happy to die in your hands." He continued, whispering along her earlobe since he knew she would be unaware of what they had discussed the next morning, "It is like killing two birds with a stone, I will be able to fulfill my promise about keeping you away from evils. You would be able to protect yourself against me." As he said those words, he clenched his jaw. "It's funny how I am the evil you need to hide from, the one who has and will hurt you the most." *** HAZEL COLESHILL, a 22-year-old vampiress who had a very terrifying past with a werewolf, pledged to protect her clan by sacrificing herself to the werewolves as part of a truce. However, already having an idea of who she was going to battle with, an alpha prince, who is rumoured to be a psychopathic monster, she is pledged on destroying him completely before he does. In short, she would make him obsessed with her and then finally destroy everything that he holds dear. LUCIFEL, a psycho-born alpha prince, was caged as a child by his father to undergo therapy and experiments. He doesn't believe he is insane, thereby figuring out weaknesses in those that treat him and feigning progress to shorten treatment was his best escape. He came across a rude vampiress prisoner and is determined to make life hell for her by making her his pet not until things change and he figures out that he is obsessed with her. Who would believe that just one night of hot sex with that gorgeous thing was enough to change his personality from a cold being to a being who wants nothing but her? He could swear that she definitely bewitched him! But will his obsession turn into something else? However, why does this vampiress look like someone who he promised to protect in the past? The war between the werewolves and vampires seems to be neverending, will these two people end the war between the two creatures, or create a tougher war? EXCERPT 2 "How does it happen?" "Possessing your shadow in the walls is really helpful. Shadows are meant to be the most vigorous reflections. They attack your enemy if you can control them and then hide back in the walls. They break walls and are extremely powerful." Hazel sighed softly before she said, "Let's go back to the last one. Possessing beings just by staring at them in the eyes." "Have you heard about the rule majorly known among humans?" "What rule?" "The rule about," she raised her two index fingers up and then curled them, signaling a quote. "The rule about not looking into a vampire's eyes?" Hazel shook her head. "The rule about vampires possessing humans when the humans stare at them is as old as the mountains, however, it can also be said to be a superstition but it is not a superstition for some special ones among us." Fannie looked at Hazel intently before saying, "Someone like you, Lady Coleshill. You have the ability to possess beings just by staring at them Warning: Mature Content, Sexual Content and Heavy Fantasy.
"I need you, Lissa. If you can help me find the girl whose description I will say to you now, I shall make you my Luna. Is that not what you want?"
Lissa's heart thumped in and out hearing those words from the Alpha. She was overly stunned to the extent that she thought that this alpha might be playing pranks with her. She could not believe that whatever she had been hoping for could just come in all of a sudden, without during too much. She wanted to be sure.
"Don't get me wrong, Alpha Lucifel." She started and his eyes were eagerly fixed on her, hearing whatever she had to say. "I am not forcing you to take me as your Luna. In fact, I have not even dreamt of it and I am finding it hard to process this whole thing. I have a strong feeling that this is not true nor is this what you intend to do. I am disappointed that you find a way to send me off when all I needed was just one more round."
He looked at her, thinking of a way to convince her. Even though he met her today, he knew almost a lot about this woman. He knew the fact that she was a widow and also the fact that she was very good at finding people just by their descriptions.
He did not understand why he kept reminding himself that she was a widow. He understood though because he had been the one who murdered her mate without her awareness but he did not know why this kept bothering him when it had barely affected him.
His hand went up to her long brown hair, he took a strand and curl it around his finger, and his other hand was fixed on her face. He lifted her head slightly up and then said, "I am willing to break all of my principles because of you, Lissa. And I don't joke with issues like this. I need to find a missing girl, and if you help me with that, I will make you rule the whole pack with me, it is a promise, dear." He wasn't entirely done with his words, he pulled her face closer to his, their lips almost touching,
"Then we can do many more than just one round. But listen, as long as you have not to find the girl, you don't have the right to be naked around me anymore." He immediately distanced himself as if she was the ugliest person in the world, he wore his trousers and then brought out cash from his wardrobe, "Take care of your injuries with this." He paused, "Do not forget to wrap your body with that towel, once I'm out, the maids would get you clothes to put on."
His breath as he spoke when he was so near to her sent tingles down her body, she felt like she was in another universe as she saw this crazy drop-dead gorgeous alpha so close to her again. She couldn't just get enough of him. Her heart almost collapsed but she blinked off the shock away.
There was another rule she had learned again from the women who had slept with the alpha. She heard about the fact that the alpha gives them money to take care of injuries. She wondered what injuries she had gone through when all she had gone through was an extreme pleasure with him. Or perhaps, he was giving them money just because he saw them as prostitutes. Well, she did not care about that. All she knew was the fact that she was soon to be Luna.
"But, Alpha Lucifel..." She was curious about who this girl could be. "You...you talked about the description. Is she from our clan or other clans?"
When he heard her question, he immediately stilled. An image not so clear appeared in front of him. It was a girl, a gorgeous pale human with red hair hiding behind a tree, looking so frightened and cute. And then again, another image of the chained vampiress swam through his face. He blinked off the memory and said, "It would be forwarded to you." Not taking a glance at her any longer, he opened the door and walked out of the room.
"Alpha Lucifel, the humans have gathered lots of troops and have started attacking from the border." A not-so-tall but huge man informed him.
He smirked and said, "Humans are so dumb. Well, that is what I have been expecting from them. Gather a hundred men to counter the attack, we are going to take their lands finally. We have more food to feed on, now."
The man looked at him, his eyes filled with doubts as if he had more to say.
"What is it?" He immediately questioned. His aura then at the room had completely vanished. From a seducing alpha to an aggressive one. "I hate waiting..." he warned.
"I...I am afraid your prisoner has been killed by Beta Ethan."
