“How is this possible Lia? he is not supposed to remember.” She shouts as she struggles to break free from Dean’s arm, “is it because he is some royal highness?”
“This quite a brutal scene you have created little siren.”
“Do not call me that you bloodsucker let me go.”
She glares at him with her deep blue eyes, he had never submerged under the ocean but somehow, he felt like her eyes symbolized the beauty of that is under the sea.
“Ugh… let me go.” She struggles, before she swings her free hand, he knows this too well, he is not getting knocked out cold again, he catches her other hand.
“You should behave little siren, I just want to talk,” he says, “at least for now, first let us apologize for the incident this morning, and by us, I mean you.”
“Huh. How overconfident, let me go your highness, she might care about your status, but I do not I do not mind biting your head off right now.” She says shifting into her siren form, mesmerizing sight, her blue scales shined so beautifully, and her sharp teeth were quite beautiful.
“Huh that temper of yours will not get you anywhere little siren, you do know I am vampire, right?” he had calmly said, he knew he was stronger, she probably knew that too, he was not fazed by a short-tempered siren, “now let us sit and talk little Avisa.”
Honestly, he liked how her name felt when he pronounced it, he had a strange feeling ever since he met her this morning, her presence had always made him feel like a certain hole in his life was filled.
But Dean had been sidelined yet again, because the other girl had hit him in the head, again.
“Told you not to be too overconfident ‘little vampire’” she mocks him, and he hated it, he hated being mocked. “Even if you remember me, I don’t care, matter of fact I want your royal highness to remember being humiliated by me countless of times.”
He had watched her walk away proudly, she had aways walked so proud, he can deduce that but just watching her walk away once.
“Your Majesty”
“How dare she? She did not even try to wipe my memory this time.”
“At least your father didn’t see the scene you were in, he would have suspected you killed all those people.”
“Find her, I want her to pay for what she did tonight.”
He had never been humiliated like this before, well if we exclude all those times his stepmother dressed him up in wrong attires during royal balls, but she had the protection of his father so he could not retaliate.
Avisa sure had something coming her way, and it was not going to be a good thing, Dean would make sure of that, even if he had to abandon his throne.
Anne Arnold, one of the only few pure blood vampires left, her family had been close to his majesty the king for a long time, her mother even helped the late queen give birth to her son as a midwife, her family was the most trusted of all in the vampire world.
But that was not Anne’s biggest achievement, Anne’s biggest achievement was earning a title as a crown princess when the vassals chose her to be His majesty’s mate. Well, that was good until that damn mate mark Dean attained.
“Mother, we have a problem.”
After her meeting with Dean her next destination had been set already to her mother to talk of the new development that is Dean’s disappeared mark.
“He found her?”
“Found who?”
“His mate, he found her, must have been during this morning’s incident, but his majesty found his mate.”
“What? How? Merfolk do not come on shore often?”
Mrs. Arnold exclaims in anger, her daughter was the next queen, the Arnold family had coveted the throne for centuries and now that it is in reach some inferior fish is here to steal it.
“He is not taking it serious though, I think he is just happy that the mark is gone.”
Anne tries to console herself, but she clearly was annoyed but this new development, she is so close to her goal.
“But… what if his mate sought after him?”
“Don’t worry, mermaids are not so bright, we can easily manipulate her and lead her to her demise, have her choose you as his next mate like how the queen did.”
Though she sounded confident, she was far from that, she knew better than anyone Dean would not let anyone kill his mate so easily. But she already has a bulletproof plan, the Arnolds deserve the throne, and she will give them the throne.
She had worn a beautiful red dress symbolic to the precious nectar that is human blood, and all creatures alike give to them, her many jewels made Mrs. Arnold shakes with envy, her beautiful brown hair laid in the most wonderful way.
“I greet Her majesty the queen.”
Mrs. Arnold bows to the magnificent woman standing before her Penelope Stoker, the queen of vampires, or what she would like to call her plan B.
“What bring the most loyal vassal’s wife to me?” Penelope asks not looking at the bowing woman in front of her, but instead attending to the flowers in her flower garden.
“I have come to collect a favor.”
Mrs. Arnold speaks, and for the first time the proud queen flinched and frowned at Mrs. Arnold. Those who were at the garden with the queen had known the signal to leave the room, leaving the two women alone.
“What favor do you ask for?”
Penelope asks, though she acted to be very composed, her anger had leaked in the form of her brown eyes which were already changing into a crimson color as she turns into her vampire form.
But Mrs. Arnold did not flinch, she had already known she had the upper hand, she herself was a proud woman, though she did not have a higher status, she had the attitude.
“I remember her majesty asking a certain midwife to kill a current queen that was giving birth” she had said ever so nonchalantly, “I was that midwife, I am sure your majesty remember that.”
Though she was still confident, she had a hint of fear, enough for her to avoid the queen’s gaze. “What do you want Briar?” Penelope asks angrily, she had lived peaceful after that fateful day, and now this woman threatens her. “I want my daughter as the next queen, I do not know how her majesty would do it, but I believe you are capable.” She Briar Arnold answers confidently, she and Penelope were on the same boat, they were two greedy women who would do anything for power, and she need not to be embarrassed about her greediness as she felt Penelope was the greediest. “How bold of you to claim to kill the previous queen without a single hint of remorse.” “But her majesty killed her only friend for a throne.” Briar speaks, “does she has the right to act nobler than me? We are both wicked women and have no right to act higher than thee.” Penelope had busted into a laughter at Briar’s words, her confidence seems to amaze her, she had always known Briar Arnold to be a dumb woman ev
“Your majesty, we have looked everywhere, I don’t think there are sirens.” Holden reports for the fifth time this week, he had been tasked with the search of a certain siren that attacked Dean, but it seems there is no way to be found. “Also, it seems the queen and second prince has stopped their mermaid kidnapping.” “Is that so I wonder what that woman is up to now.” Dean sighs, he knows his stepmother well enough, she is the woman that gaslighted him into killing thousands at a tender age of 10. “And the new alpha for the Crescent pack is here to see you.” Holden says before holding his breath for an outburst, wolves and vampires we natural enemies but Dean Stoker and Arnoux Crescent were a different type of enemies. Arnoux Crescent was always known as the alpha of his pack from the first time he breath the oxygen in this earth just like how Dean was a crown prince from birth. And with Arnoux’s mother's relationship with the late vampire queen, Dean grew close to Arnoux, and the
“What the hell is that Arnoux?” Dean yells angrily. “My mate marks.” Arnoux sighs buttoning his shirt, “well that is what the warlock told me at least.” “But you found your mate already, that is why you became alpha of the pack.” Dean said. “No, my father had already made a plan on how he was going to fool everyone into thinking I am already mated.” Arnoux says, “glad it worked, anyway tell me where you found your mate and help me find mine.” “Are out of your mind do you know what can happen to you if they find out?” Dean speaks angrily, though he and Arnoux did not get along he still cared for him, well a little bit. “Relax there, you found your mate, what is stopping me from doing so?” Arnoux says nonchalantly, “I am here to get help not get scolded.” Though Holden was heavily hurt by this new development he was still happy to see the two friends care for each other. “I don’t even know who my mate is Arnoux, I don’t know where I met her.” Dean shouts, he was angry, angry at Ar
“I swear mother I don’t remember anything.” Dean’s youthful drowsy voice can be heard in echoes, a little 10-year boy made to shoulder the burden older than him. “You killed the Crescent pack’s Luna that is what you did, how ruthless of you.” Penelope scolds, the little vampire who stood next to a lifeless body, “did the tittle make you feel so unstoppable enough to kill the Luna?” “I didn’t, I didn’t do it, I swear.” Young Dean cries. Penelope had called the guards to drag him to the dungeon, “make sure he is locked in tight; we have many guests, we don’t want this ruthless animal to kill any more of our guest.” Penelope chimes with a smirk on her face. “Your majesty?” Holden shouted for the second time, he ran to Dean’s room as soon as he heard screams and groans. With the third call Dean had woken from his nightmare, his body drenched with sweat with both his pants and shirt drizzling droplets of his sweat and gasping with every breath. “Get me some water.” He tells Holden in
Holden had liked Anne for a long time, well since they met when they were just 12 years old, but he had already known she was too obsessed with Dean to give him the time he needed.He had given up long ago that she will never be his, but look how cruel fate is, he is now stuck with some dumb mate bond that linked him to the woman who will never love nor respect him.“Ah……” Holden screams as loud as he can, not with anger but with sadness, he is going to have to wake up early next morning and work with the very man that keeps his mate’s heart.The next morning, he had woken up rather late, later than Dean who had knocked at his door when he woke up.“Good morning your majesty.” Holden says softly.“What happened?” Dean asks, “you have been sulking since our last hunt.”“I… well… It is nothing, I am just not having a good day that is all.”He knew Dean suspected something, after all they had been friends long enough for them to know when the other was not having a good day.“Good mornin
“Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the wonders of the world, where you get sweet beautiful mermaids at low price.” The commentator says, “unfortunately we do not have many mermaids today, we still have sweet little women to appease you, and a special main event.” The auction starts, though many complained about not getting mermaids they still opened their filthy wallets. “And now the main event, a special little wonder,” the commentator says opening the box to show the little scared elf, “come on sweet it your time to shine” he whispers to her tugging her to stand. “Let me demonstrate,” he says calling some men to come with swords in their hands, “let me show you a little trick,” The men swing their swords slashing her and she screams in pain and agony, they stopped, and after a few seconds her blood stopped all together, and all her wounds heal mysteriously. “Yes, just like those vampire sweets you just bought, this wonder can heal magical too, and what is the plus
She stops the trident just close enough to draw blood, his hands still intact but his prides shattered as he screamed so loud that he surrendered with fear and tears on his face. “Ha-ha-ha-ha, oh, you are so gullible, are sure you are a siren?” Avisa laughs mockingly she always wanted to make Aran cry, “don’t forget to worship that girl over there” she says pointing at laughing Ophelia. “Avisa Photim, my office now” the king roars even with her wining, she needed not toy with the poor guy’s feelings. The coliseum was still quiet in shock of how easy it was to defeat their strongest warrior. “Got ME in trouble yet again, ugh, I should just finish you off” she says making him flinch before walking away laughing, Ophelia strides behind her happily. Avisa had been scolded for being too insensitive, well at least that is what her father said, he himself is an insensitive piece of crap, so it took her by surprise why this kettle is calling the pot black, all in all she was grounded. “L
Avisa was seating on her bed waiting for her father’s decision and waiting for Ophelia as they could implement plan B before her friend barged in distraught. “Lia are you okay?” she asked gently, yes Avisa Photim can be very gentle at times. “Mother… she just… she….” Ophelia says. “Did she catch you? Did I get you in trouble? Sorry.” Avisa said, “I will clear your name okay...” “It is not that, she just started yelling and calling you names because your father agreed for us to go guard the barrier, and I just snapped, like after what she did to father, she continues to blame you and her majesty for her cruelty.” “Oh… Lia, I am so sorry, you do not deserve this.” Avisa said hugging her friend, “you are old enough now, how about we out your mother’s secret.” “It is fine, let us fix your mate fiasco first, it is more important.” Ophelia said wiping her tears, “we will deal with mother okay.” “Fine, but if she causes you trouble I will deal with her, okay?” “I know you will,” she
