Chapter 3

Helion’s POV

“Take her out!” I growled as he rushed in, “send in another!”

A few Minutes later, peter came in with another woman, she was already trembling like a scared cat. Already naked, I stepped in front of her, a loud gasp tore through her throat.

“Strip!” I ordered, and instead of obeying she crashed down on her knees, sobbing and begging.

“Please! please! don’t kill me, don’t kill me!, I beg you “ she cried so hard it infuriated me.

My fangs were threatening to emerge but i tried to control it, my fingers were already pitch black, claws getting ready to tear her apart, “Get out! Get out now!” I growled in fury as she crawled out of the room.

Running my fingers through my hair, I bang my fists into the wall. The monster was already venting, itching and fighting for control.

“Your majesty”

“No more, Peter!” I vibrated in a low growl, fixing him a stare as my eyes glowed fiery red, he clamped his mouth shut immediately. Transforming tonight is inevitable, I’ll just have to endure it.

I lay on my bed trying to sleep when the second girl burst into the quarters, shaking and muttering some inaudible words. She climbed her bed and curled up like a ball. The door flung open again, and the lady in red walked in, she paced until she stopped in front of me,

“Come with me” she said and started walking away, the clinking sound of her heels against the tiled floors were the only thing I could hear at that moment. I was stunned. It felt like the air around me seized completely as my heart stopped for a moment..

I was finally chosen. I knew this day would come but I never expected it this early. I stepped down from my bed and followed closely behind her, my hands clamped together, fingers digging into each other. I was afraid, It felt like i had just committed murder, and I was been taken away for execution. The hallway was dimly lit and eerily quiet, it felt like the walls had eyes and they were watching every step I took. Deep down, I prayed the king looses interest once he sets eyes on me. I pray he doesn’t even look at me. Let my human scent infuriate and disgust him so he sends me out of the palace.

I have a lot to Achieve—I can’t die. No, I won’t die. We walked untill we got to a place surrounded by several men in black suits. Their faces screamed death, I dared not look at them. I released my hands and clenched my fists by my side, trying not to shiver. We were finally at the king’s door when we heard him growl, he was angry. The door opened and another mean looking man with an Auburn colored hair stepped out.

“Take her away, His majesty’s orders” he said casually and walked out without sparing me a glance. I blinked hard, What does this mean? I don’t get to die today?

“You heard him. Follow me back to the quarters and wait until you are summoned again” the lady in red said and started walking away, I quickly followed behind her. I felt a surge of relief spreading through every part of my body. We arrived at the quarters, and the lady in red left me there, taking a different route. I pushed the doors open and walked in, all eyes turned to my direction and I could tell they were surprised.

I slowly walked to my bed and lay down, letting my thoughts take over. Today was a narrow escape, another Day will come. But I did not want to just wait to be killed by Some monster, and escaping is impossible, this place is swarming with guards, I won’t even make it far before they kill me.

I needed some fresh air. I quietly stepped down from my bed, opened the door and stepped into the cold night. A little walk won’t hurt. Careful not to make a sound, I walked barefooted. The hallway was so quiet it would be hard to know anyone lives here.

I walked farther and farther till I heard a noise—no, it was a loud growl that didn’t sound like anything normal. I look at the door at the left side of the hallway and the noise was coming from there. Taking slow, sudden steps towards it, I pushed it open quietly, what I saw almost made my heart crawl out of my chest.

A monster! In a man’s form. Fiery red eyes, very long fangs, pitch black claws and—a horn, he had a fucking horn!, and he was chained to the ground. I stared at the creature in front of me for a few seconds, taking in its appearance. This was the embodiment of evil. It suddenly occurred to me, they say the king transforms.

My eyes widened in shock as sudden realization hit me. it is him!

He growled the moment he saw me, I tried to run but I was stuck, not being able to move. Is he doing this? Oh God! somebody save me. Suddenly, I could hear sounds of bones crushing, he started transforming, his claws vanished, his eyes turned golden, the horn disappeared revealing a red coloured hair, the chains loosened by themselves. In minutes he was back to his human form, and he was half naked. It was dark but I could see a bit of him.

“Who are you?” He asked in a low growl. I tried to move and saw that I can, but when I tried to run I was pulled inside instead. I was very sure he was doing this. He possesses demonic powers, how could i forget that.

“Who are you?” He asked again, taking long and steady strides toward me untill he was in front of me, his shadow completely engulfing me.

“Nobody. I am sorry for disturbing you“ I said but he suddenly lunged forward, grabbed me and pinned me to the wall, slightly choking me and sniffing down my neck.

“Wha…” the words died in my throat as his lips suddenly claimed mine. I thrashed and pushed but he was just too strong. His hands moved, removed my jacket, he tossed it aside, he pinched my nipples through the skimpy nightwear. I moaned into the kiss as the feeling had me arching closer to him. He broke the kiss and sniffed down my neck again, breathing in satisfaction.

Suddenly, he lifted me up, claiming my lips again and carried me to a table, dropping me on it. His hand moved to my breast, he gently cupped it, pressing and pinching my nipple, I moaned, the feeling was new and I was enjoying it, though I was not supposed to. His hand slid down my thighs, ripping off my panties, the air hit my skin, I could the wetness pooling in between my legs. He introduced his fingers, tracing circles on my clit. God! It felt so good, i arched closer and he slid in a finger, slowly. The tearing effect of it hurt but then the pleasure came again,

He started thrusting, in and out slowly, he suddenly added another finger, increasing his pace. He thrust harder and faster, I winced in pain, my fingers flew up, digging into his shoulder. It hurts.

I slammed my hands on his shoulders, trying to push him away, but he was just too strong. “S-stop! let me go!, you are hurting me!” I screamed, but he groaned, holding me firmly against the table as his pace increased.
