Chapter 4

* * * *

My pleas all fell on deaf ears as his mouth kept sucking and making trails on my breast and his fingers thrusting deeper and faster inside of me.

“Let go!” I screamed, he looked up and I could see his eyes had changed to a fiery red hue, shock rippled visibly across my face. But I did not stop screaming.

“I said let me go you jerk!” I yelled and suddenly he stopped, letting me go. I crashed down from the table, my legs wobbled but I managed to stand up. The stinging pain in between my legs made it a bit difficult to walk. But I ran. I ran out of the chain room, not even sparing him a glance, totally forgetting about my jacket and panties on the floor.

Helion’s POV

That girl was able to calm my rage. He did not rip her to shreds after touching her… that’s strange. Who is she? I crouched down and picked up the jacket from the floor, this is a similar nightwear, the same one worn by the girls brought in earlier.

It feels like her scent is very familiar but I have never seen this woman before. She could actually calm my beast, Such have not happened in centuries.

“Sire” Peter rushed in,

“What is it?”

“The shadow realm, they are launching an attack again“ he reported.

I scoffed, they never learn.

“Go to the ladies quarters and guard there” I ordered.

“But…”

“No buts Peter, Go.”

He bowed and left. I walked out of the palace in long strides, into the forest and there they were, the species I hated the most. I felt rage surge through my veins as my eyes glowed a bright fiery red hue, my claws emerged and was ready to rip off some hearts out. Stepping into their midst, I tore through them, one by one, sparing none. They know they are no match for me, yet they keep coming, in their numbers.

Sighting one of the foolish beings on the ground, crawling and trying to escape, I grabbed him and plunged my claws into his chest, ripping his heart out, I was covered in blood. spreading my hands out, I absorbed their souls, the air turned pitch black, filled with fogs until I had absorbed everything. it felt good, the monster within me loved it. But it craved something else so badly—her.

“Your majesty” Peter came over and covered me with a fur coat.

“Why are you here? I asked you to guard the girls“

“They are safe, my king”

“There was a girl, Peter. She was able to pull me out of my feral state.” I said to him, and he was surprised.

“Really? That’s good news” he beamed. I ignored him and walked back to the palace, I needed a cold bath.

I entered the bathroom and turned on the shower, letting the water wash of the disgusting residue of the enemy blood. I stepped out of the shower in just a towel, Peter was still waiting.

“The girls, I’ll need to see all of them” I said to him,

“You believe she is among them?” He asked.

“I believe so”

Though the room was dark, I could still make out her face , her body, soft and supple, with curves like a goddess. I felt my cock jump at the thought and I groaned. Just thinking of her has this effect on me. How would it feel when I’m finally buried deep inside of her, my fangs on her neck, taking a sip of her blood while fucking her crazy. The budge in between my legs was starting to get bigger, I was getting aroused.

“But my king, Kara said the woman has to be a witch, did you feel anything from her?”

“No, she is a human“ I sighed, running my fingers through my hair. I was really surprised too.

“A human?but how?”

“I do not know, Peter”. I said and walked to the window.

Kara is my relative, she is a witch. she has been helping me find my cure ever since she completed her witchcraft training, and the most she could do was lace my chains with powerful spells so I cannot get loose when I am in my feral state.

“Pass the message to Adeline, I will visit the girls quarters at sunrise.”

Amelia’s POV

I was scared out of my wits, what the hell just happened? He is indeed brutal, just like they say. What would have happened if i didnt scream and push the way i did? Would he have ripped me apart?

Oh God.

I walked into the quarters and everyone’s attention was on me, I looked so dishelved. I quietly walked into the bathroom and took a shower then walked back to my bed space, lay down and shut my eyes tightly until i fell asleep.

The sound of the metallic door hand and the familiar sound of heels drifted me awake, the lady in red had come again, “get up ladies, shower and get dressed. His majesty will be here soon.”

She went on to pass new dresses to each of us. But wait, what did she just say? He is coming here What the fuck! What do I do? Will he kill me for intruding his chain room last night?

“Amelia?” She suddenly called me

“Yes?”

“Why are you still here? Go on and shower” she said in her high pitched commanding tone.

I walked into the bathroom, showered and came out to dress. They made us wear red this time, a long gown with slits on both sides that ran up to the hips, with a tiny strap. Then she instructed we all dress our hair in a ponytail.

“Alright. Now we wait” she said and walked out of the room, slamming the door shut.

I crashed down on my bed and took a deep breath. What is he coming here force. Is he going to sleep with all of us at once?

The door suddenly opened again and the lady in red rushed in, “he is here, straighten up” she ordered, her predatory gaze fixing us a sharp stare. “Keep your heads down, do not speak unless you are spoken to, am I clear?“ she thundered.

Several men in black walked into the room, making space for him.

Then he walked in. Majestic and glorious, his red hair, the color of blood itself, his golden eyes glowed, it was so beautiful. The top three buttons of his shirt were undone, and I noticed a flower tattoo on his chest. I didn’t see that last night, maybe because it was dark. I immediately bent my head when he got closer.

“My king” the lady in red bowed and greeted.

“Adeline, is this all of them?” That voice, I’d recognize it anywhere. It really is him.

“Yes, my king. The ladies from have been sent away like you ordered“ the lady in red—Adeline responded.

No wonder I didn’t see the girls this morning.

“Good “ he said and started from the first girl, he looked at her then walked to the second, to the third, fourth, fifth, just like that until he got to the girl before me, I was last in line. He stopped in front of her, suddenly, his gaze shifted and landed on me. I kept my head down but I could feel his gaze burning into my skin like wild fire. He slowly walked over and stood in front of me, grabbed my chin and forced my face up to look at him,

“It is you!” He said in a low growl, his fingers digging deeper into my chin.
