ANNE “ Even when I say I have something of yours in a tight grip? ” He leans forward. He is smug. When he leans in, I know he has something on me which might make me waver momentarily. Maybe, my parents. Or maybe, one of the fake fucking human friends I made in the city during my stay. My heart misses a beat but I don’t let it show. “ no.” Nothing can make me sway when it comes to him. And I don’t fucking know why. I have to get by this. “ Okay. ” He nods, leaning back. “ get rid of that little she-wolf, Liam. She is of no use to us. ” He is not referring to me. He— He—he is referring to Giana. “ No. ” I spring up from the couch, my eyes wide. “ What do you mean by no exactly, Anne?” He asks, amused. Liam chuckles from behind me. “ Who is it? ” I just have to make sure. There is no way it’s Natalie. And there is no way, he thinks someone other than Giana is more important to me than my own life. I fucking hate this. “ I thought you don’t want to know.” He smirks. My

ANNE “ Put me down.” I sigh as we get close to my room. My hands move to my cheeks to wipe the tears. It’s so weird to cry all the time. “ Are you already done pretending? ” He turns his head at me, giving me a knowing look. I gulp, staring at his face from so close. It’s strange that he, sometimes, figures things out without me having to tell him about what’s going on. “ Did I pretend to be weak enough? ” I wonder if the Vampire King could see right through my dramatic crying as Zero can. He doesn’t answer. My eyes move towards his neck, the vein pulsing in it as he moves his head back. I know I will feel the pain again when he finally puts me down. It might take a lot of time for me to heal on my own given that my healing process is shitty due to the low—born hereditary traits. I lean in and place my lips over his neck. He hisses as my lips meet his cold skin. A jolt of electricity rushes down my spine as I open my mouth and start trying to nibble on it. My heartbeat skyrock

ANNEThird time throwing up in the same hour and I feel dead. The broken bone in my spine was better than this.I sigh when my stomach refuses to send the non—existent food hurling out of my mouth for the fourth time. Leaning back, I collapse on the cold tiles of the attached bathroom. My eyes move towards Zero who is standing in the doorway like a statue, his gaze fixed on me.I would have felt better if he was at least smug or saying things like ‘ I told you ’ but he is silent, still, and watching me. At my worst. Throwing up again and again.This is so embarrassing.“ What did Ryker say? ” I scrunch my nose, getting disgusted by my own stinky breath, the metallic taste lingering on my tongue, and my aching throat.“ He is going to look for her right away. ” He informs me.I told Zero everything that happened downstairs. I thought he will be shocked but he was calm and I was the one panicking.He didn’t even display any anger. He simply went into the rational mode where he called Ry

ANNEAll of a sudden, he leans in, our faces brushing as he whispers in my ear. “ She is coming here. Don’t speak so loud. ” I stumble back on my feet after he is done stealing my soul by rasping in my ear. For a torturous moment, I thought he didn’t like the idea of me talking about Liam like this.We exchange a knowing look before he takes a step back, noticing my discomfort due to his closeness to my blazing body.A knock sounds on the door, drawing my attention. Peeling my gaze off Zero, I fix it on the door. The person on the other side knocks one more time, politely.Sucking in a deep, calming breath, I stomp to the door and pull it open.“ Anne. ” Freya gasps on the other side, her hands clasped together in front of her stomach and a weak smile plastered over her lips.Many curse words run through my head but I hold them in. I can do it for Giana—I have to play safe and good until I have her back.“ Yes? ” I smile back. I am good at acting. I always was. There is no way she

ZEROI left her room after warning her to stay away from my life.When she has already confessed her undying hate for me numerous times, there is no point in her interference in my matters. But, she wants to know what I feel about my family. She wants me to hurt them if the situation requires it and she needs to be sure that I will not hesitate in doing so.She doesn’t need to worry about this. I will do what is required of me if I need to. There is nothing holding me back. Not any kind of affection at least.The night has fallen on the mansion once more. It’s time for them to swarm the place again. Anne picked up a fight with Ava yesterday. Tonight, she might appear to take revenge on her. Either by herself or by using someone else.So, I have to give up on indulging in drinking fresh human blood which I avoided after waking up from my personal hell. Ryker and I lived on stored blood or animal blood. After coming here and witnessing bloodshed almost every day, it became impossible

ZEROI scan her face, wanting to know if she was serious about sleeping together.“ I mean. Lie down on the bed beside me while I sleep. ” She understands where my mind went and instantly elaborates.I knew she didn’t mean it that way. Although the bond draws her to me, she is too stubborn to actually want to sleep with me.Without saying a word, I move past her and remove my shoes before lying down on the bed. My eyes move to the ceiling in silence.“ I thought you will refuse. ” She muses while making her way to the other side of the bed. I place my hands over my stomach, lying still on my back and keeping my gaze straight and away from her body. Her flowery wild scent spreads around me, all inside me even when I try to keep my head distracted.“ You watched me sleeping many times before. I bet it’s not even weird for you anymore. ” Mumbling, she pulls the duvet up her body.I don’t stop her from covering half my body too. It’s strange for werewolves to sleep under heavy blankets b

ANNEWaking up in the morning and not during the night was kind of new after three months of sleepless nights. And seeing Zero’s stoic face first thing in the morning was even newer.I almost screamed my lungs out but my mind registered everything quickly and I sufficed with only gasping and untangling my body from his.He got up and left without delay. He didn’t even say a thing to me which was awkward. I didn’t say anything to him either. I was too busy letting the thought of hugging him to sleep sink in. I must have lost my mind when I saw him outside my room last night. I was vulnerable in front of him, I told him things I barely ever tell even myself and I asked him to sleep with me. Shit.But, I don’t regret it. He listened to me, didn’t laugh at my weakness, and actually held me like he cared about me. So, okay. It’s all fine and good.I still feel like screaming my lungs out though. It’s all so unreal.Anyway, I have to push all this aside and get to work. The first thing I

ANNE“ He met the witch a few days ago. ” The Vampire King sighs, as I sit down on the couch after getting persuaded by Giana to listen to everything he has to tell me.“ Which witch? ” I lift my brow.“ Edith. She lives close by. ” He reveals. “ she is an alliance. She came here a few days ago to tell us about the shift in the stars and the prophecy about a new Vampire King after centuries. ” “ So? ” I frown.“ He met her and asked her about the sleep-inducing spell. ” He discloses.“ What sleep-inducing spell? ” My heart misses a beat.“ The one he had been under. For centuries. He gave her money, and she told him everything he needed to know. ” The King stares at me coldly.“ He must be…curious to know about the spell. What about it? ” I don’t think there is anything wrong here.He shakes his head. “ you don’t know what he said to his mother when he found her alive. ” I look at Zio, who is listening to everything keenly, and then at Giana, who is frowning hard. “ He told her…he
