ChapterTwo
“They’ve been in there for hours. Is it true? Is she pregnant?” Tanya asks. I shrug my shoulders, not sure if I should tell her or not. “Why does she tell you everything and not me? I’m closer in age,” she whines.
Melvon comes into our small house carrying some bread.
Tanya’s face instantly changes, and she offers him a smile before she takes it from him. “Thanks, Melvon.”
She’s been feeding him.
She thinks we don’t know.
But Melvon and Tatiana are still connected. She knows the risk of feeding a vampire—our blood is addictive to them. While she has a crush, he looks at her as a meal.
Melvon’s eyes fall on me.
“Bronik is here. He asked I fetch you so he doesn’t intrude again… in case you are busy.” I roll my eyes, get off the bed, and walk out with Tanya and Melvon following.
I spot Bronik straight away. He’s standing with a group of shifters around him, all watching him closely.
Tatiana approaches, with John by her side. Her eyes find mine, and by the redness surrounding them, I can see she’s been crying.
“Can we help you, Angel?” John says.
“Bronik,” Bronik corrects him. “Or would you prefer I call youdoginstead of John?” Tatiana lays a hand on John’s shoulder to calm him. Bronik then addresses me. “Do you want to meet with him?”
“Who?” Tatiana asks, coming to stand next to me. “Who is he talking about, Talia?”
“Viper wants a meeting,” I tell her.
“Hell no. That’s what you said, right?” she asks, eyes wide.
“I haven’t said no.”
“It’s best she goes so she can get a feel for him. He knows of her power. Everyone does. She is his competition… therefore, they should speak. Since he holds the castle now.”
“He wants to kill her,” Tatiana barks at Bronik.
“And I would not let that happen.”
“If Viper wanted to, he could control you,” Tatiana says.
“It’s not that easy. He may be able to subdue me, but control… well, let’s say that should not happen again.”
“Unless he makes a deal with a demon,” I utter.
Bronik stares at me intently, and I just shrug.
“Talia can’t go. She is safer here,” Tatiana adds. She’s staying strong, but I can hear the pleading.
“She isn’t safe anywhere, and you are a fool to believe so,” Bronik replies.
“I’d watch who you call a fool,” John warns.
Bronik doesn’t even glance at him.
“He knows you don’t want the crown. He wants to test you.”
“Viper and his testing can go suck a vampire’s dick.” I cross my arms over my chest. “Last time I was tested, I had to kill one of his people. That wasnotfun.”
