Bloodbound: A Consort For The Vampire CHAPTER SIXTY SEVEN~ The Fate Of Mankind Lies In Your Hand.
Does that mean my answer was good enough? As if to humor me, Caspian crosses his arms over his chest and thoughtfully tilts his head to the side.“And how would you propose we accomplish that?”I hadn’t thought this far ahead. I’ve been so focused on finding them that I didn’t think past the discovery. I grimace and give the best answer I can find in my scattered thoughts. “By asking for peace. And if the vampires refuse, we fight them until they see reason. Same with the humans.”“So we fight for peace through war?” Caspian questions, gently jabbing my tactical approach.My shoulders slump and I stare down at my hands again. He’s right. It’s a stupid idea. So many lives were lost during the first war. It was such dark times. But what other way is there? If we continue to let the vampires push us around, how will we ever rescue all the humans under their control?“You’re right,” I admit. “It’s stupid.”I can hear the small smile in Caspian’s voice when he responds. “It’s not stupid
Bloodbound: A Consort For The Vampire CHAPTER SIXTY SIX~ For Peace And Freedom
Kieran’s POV The rich, warm smell of cinnamon seeps into the air. An excess amount of saliva slides down the sides of my tongue and my stomach grumbles. I haven’t smelled, let alone tasted, any other food but pineapple in weeks.Caspian pushes his chair around to the other side of his desk and gestures for me to sit. It has a tall back and looks every bit as fancy and important as he does. I hesitantly take a seat, and my hand slides over the purple velvet of the arm. The soft fabric tickles my fingertips.“You must be hungry,” Caspian comments. “I’ll request a meal for you while we talk.”“No, no. That’s alright.”Caspian shakes his head. “I insist.”My stomach roars in protest, but I can’t accept the offer. Already I'm discussing the terms of a debt left unpaid. The more they freely give, the more I will have to pay in return. Caspian taps on a hidden button on his desk.“Mr. Consulate?”“Please send up a buffet tray of an assortment of food and drink to the red room.”“Yes, M
Bloodbound: A Consort For The Vampire CHAPTER SIXTY FIVE~ The Terms Of Your Payment.
Kieran’s POV Each of the guards straighten and move positions in order to keep the massive doors propped open. The one on the left looks unfazed, but I notice the one on the right still isn’t happy about the situation.Bonnie scowls in his direction before stepping to the side to give us access to the door. Just before we reach its threshold I think I hear her laughing quietly, but I could be wrong. My fleeting moments of happiness and longing are replaced by anxiety.My eyes sweep over the new room. Guards line the wall, all of them standing tall with their hands tucked behind their backs. Their uniforms are different from the ones in the hallway. They’re not camouflaged to the rocks of the walls and the ceiling. Instead they’re all dressed in a matching purple color. A vibrant, rich sash sits across each of their torsos.Even the air here is different. It's heavy and stiff, as if anything more tranquil would be out of place.As I continue to glance around the room, a masculine
Bloodbound: A Consort For The Vampire CHAPTER SIXTY SEVEN ~ The Consulate.
Kieran’s POV Bonnie leads us down hallway after hallway. More camouflaged men and women silently watch us as we pass. Only the whites of their eyes give them away. Nobody speaks to Bonnie, but I notice a few of them nod their heads as a sign of respect as she passes. They do watch us as we move past, however.Their varying shades of irises never leave us, but their expressions remain hidden beneath layers of decorative rock that I have never seen before. Caius grips me tighter as we move deeper and deeper into the mountain. He must be thinking this isn’t safe, because if this turns out to be dangerous, we have little chance of escaping without being hunted and killed.We follow Bonnie and turn a final corner, and a brilliant hue of light fills the space around us. I suck in a breath of disbelief as I glance at the wide ceiling. Pieces of rock have been scraped out and replaced with lights. Their placements are random and vary in intensity. It reminds me of sparkling lights poki
Bloodbound: A Consort For The Vampire CHAPTER SIXTY SIX~ The Secondary Colony.
Kieran’s POV The next few minutes are unadulterated chaos. Caius manages to keep Bonnie from escaping, but with Evans’ quickly deteriorating state, we end up needing her help. He’s unconscious and rapidly losing blood. Even his pulse is slowing. Caius’ red eyes sear me as I suggest letting her go. “She’ll kill you, human,” he mutters. “Letting her go is out of the question.” “We need her help!” Bonnie stares defiantly.ahead. Even though she’s a Secondary, she has the same sense of pride as vampires. She’s not angry that she’s being held captive. She’s angry she slipped up enough to get in that predicament in the first place. Caius shakes his head. “Enough.” Evans is curled into a small heap beside me. I've switched out the clothing in front of his stomach, twice. His paleness takes on a sickly hue, and I know he doesn’t have much longer. Caius has made it clear time and time again that he doesn’t care whether Evans lives or dies, but I do. And I know if the roles were
Bloodbound: A Consort For The Vampire CHAPTER SIXTY FIVE~ I'll Do Anything For You.
Kieran’s POV Her words sound muffled, muted even against the blood rushing against my ears. I try to respond but my speech sounds garbled. Or maybe that’s just the noise it’s making in my brain, because I don’t think I actually manage to make a sound. “Inside that duffle bag, there is a picture,” Caius answers. “It is tucked beneath two sweaters. We believe it’s a member of my family. A fellow Secondary.” Bonnie tilts her chin up in defiance. “And who might this family member be?” “According to the picture, it's Calistian Adams.” “According to the picture?” she questions and narrows her eyes. “His name is written on the back. I lost my memory when I turned,” Caius responds in a clipped tone. “I obviously can’t be sure if the name is an accurate reflection of the person.” Caius is never afraid, and in moments like this, it becomes apparent. Sometimes I envy him for not feeling emotion. Bonnie’s gaze slides over to the duffle bag. She jerks the end of her gun to th

Kieran’s POV.Three days later, sliding my finger lazily across the carpet in search of my drink, I frown as I bring it to my lips. There's not so much left, so I'm forced to lap the froth caked around the rim. Beau plays his piano in the background and once in a while, he scribbles down notes acr
Bloodbound: A Consort For The Vampire ~There's No Point In Hoping
Professor Evans is one of the youngest lecturers in the academy. And that makes it easier to be able to confide in him. He understands young adults and sees things from our own point of view. And that’s one of the reasons he is my best history lecturer to ever exist. He turns sharply from the pul
Bloodbound: A Consort For The Vampire ~I Refuse To Accept You As My Consort
Kieran’s POV.A male. My vampire is a male. My limbs tremble as I stare at him. He takes a step forward, gracefully. He has long fingers that are perfectly slender. His colour matches the flakes of snow. I lick my dry lips and hope he doesn't smell the fear through my veins. He lifts his hands

Kieran’s POV.Two weeks ago, I turned twenty years old. But my vampire hasn’t shown up. And since then I’ve been pondering on why she hasn't reached out to me.The intermediaries between humans and vampires send the details of every human consort to their vampires once they are of age. So, what co
