KING LEROYI sat inside my office, deep in thought, with my most trusted guards in front of me. Bella, she's dead, and the culprit is no other than her father, who ended up dead as well when her wife caught him and ended up dead when she took her own life. No one believes that Omar can do it to her daughter because everyone sees how he loves her.It's been a week since the incident, but we can't find any reason why Omar would try to kill me, not bothering to think about his daughter when he let go of the arrow even though Bella was so near me. No one could answer all the questions inside my mind, which made me furious. Who was behind all this? I had already searched the whole castle, every room, and everyone's house to find out who was hiding a silver arrow, but we found nothingThe only clue we got before the incidents happened was that some other guards saw Omar acting differently. They said he seemed like a robot, moving around as if someone was commanding him to do a thing, and th
KING LEROYI stood near my office window, watching the children playing at the playground at the back of the castle. The laughter of my mate was contagious as Lauren chased her around, and it brought a smile to my lips as well. They have been playing tug of war for hours now, and they are all drenched in sweatThe moon shines brightly up at the sky, lighting the night. The other kids were so giving to my mate. I'm sure if they wanted, they could catch her instantly, but they lessened their speed too much with the human children, and until now, my mate hasn't noticed it.I'm so thankful that the vampire children listened to my warning to ensure that Sadie didn't know our kind until she was old enough to understand. And I'm so proud of them for being considerate of my mateI'm so happy that despite Sadie being human, I can see that they cared for her, and I'm sure they will protect her if ever there's a danger coming her way.She's six years old now, turning seven in a few months. She g
KING LEROYI groaned when a soft knock sounded outside my door before someone pushed it open. I smile inside when I hear a small step come closer to my bed, and then Sadie's lips touch my cheek."Sire, it's waking up time. It's already seven in the evening, and everyone is waiting in the dining hall. The food is ready." She whispered and planted a kiss on my cheek again."Five more minutes," I murmured without opening my eyes."Okay." I heard her answer, and then she sat on the edge of my bed. I smiled inside and pulled her beside me. "Sire, I'm not sleepy. I already bathe and brush my teeth."I just hummed and pulled her on my chest, and I rested my chin on top of her head. She giggled and snuggled closer to me, which made me smile, and I drifted off to sleep again."Sire." I groaned when another knock sounded at the door, but this time, it was Amara. I open my eyes and look at the clock at the bedside table and gasp when I see the time, eight o'clock. I fell back asleep for an hou
It took like forever until I was finally able to move a finger. Sadie is still sobbing and trembling beside me, as well as Cheche. I tried to move again, and this time, I moved my hand. "Sire can move now." My little mate cried and quickly wrapped her arms around my neck. I groaned, raising my hand. On my first attempt, I only raised it a few centimeters before it fell on the floor again. I tried again, but it was still the same. Cheche noticed it, and she helped me by pulling my hand and putting it around my little mate, now straddling my lap."Sire, can you talk now?" Cheche asked. "Hmmm!!! The only sound came out from my lips. Sadie pulled away from me and then placed her on my face."Are you alright now, Sire? Are you in pain? Do you want me to do anything?" She asked, tears streaming down her face."I...I'm fi...fine." I finally uttered. She smiled
KING LEROYWhen we stepped inside, everyone was already there waiting for me. I sit on the head of the table and let Cheche sit beside me."Sire." I nod in response when they greet me."I know all of you already know why we are here tonight. We are just lucky that no one was hurt. By the way, what happened to the patrol that was doing their rounds? Why did those two witches get in?""All of them were under the spell also, Sire," I growled inside. How strong is this witch? How can they control all of us, including me?"Sire, can I ask a favor?" Emmett's mother asked."What is it?""I want my son to be away from here. I'm scared for his safety. We are just lucky that this little fae is with us. Without her, we don't know what will happen to us.""We also want Sire." Hunter and Lauren's parents said. "We ar
KING LEROY"I don't want to go." Sadie sobbed, following behind me. After the meeting, I quickly informed the children about our plan to move them out of the castle. And it's been two weeks already, and my little mate doesn't tire of following me every day as soon as she sees me. I also don't want her to go, but it is for her safety and the rest of the children."Sire, please don't send me away. Promise I do everything you ask. I won't bother you when you are working. I won't force you to join us during our movie night. I will sleep as soon as the sleeping time comes. I won't complain about anything, and I eat all the food on my plate. I'll do everything; please don't send me away." She cried. I sighed and slumped down on my seat. Sadie quickly climbs on my lap and wraps her tiny arms around my neck, sobbing."Little one, this is for your safety. I don't want you to go as well, but it's very dangerous for you to stay here. Do you see what ha
Fine!! She huffed., arm crossed over her chest. I chuckled inside. She looked like a little villain in a movie I watched before by the way she threw me a death glare in annoyance."You look gorgeous, handsome. I think you are the one they described as tall and handsome, but... the grin on my face quickly vanished when I heard the but. Why there's always a but. I waited for her to continue feeling annoyed now."But you look scary and dangerous.""What?? Do I look scary to you?" I hissed, pissed off."You said to answer your question honestly. Now you're mad because I told you the truth. I'm going back to the playroom. I'm mad now as well." "Wait, sorry little one, but I'm just mad because in your eyes, I'm scary, and I don't want that," I said, picking her up and sitting beside me. "For me, you are not scary, of course. You are mushy and so
SADIE13y/o Sadie Seven years have passed since we left the castle and seven years of suffering for me. Since I started school, my classmate bullied me because Aunt Amara dressed me like a nerd with thick spectacles, and she always braided my hair, and to add to it, I wore braces I didn't need at all.Before, I was okay with it, but as I got older, I started to wonder why she dressed me like that, a nerd, while Che Che and Lauren wore lovely dresses, and she answered the King ordered it.I was furious when I found out the reason. It was Sire's fault that I was suffering every single day of my life. Because the reason why my classmate bullied me was because of my looks; they said I was ugly and unsuitable to be in a prestigious school, and I was only ideal for trash like myself. That's why they always push me in the bin at every chance or throw garbage at me.The content of
