Slade Donovan POV
When I heard Gabriella crying in her room, I felt guilty but I didn’t regret what I did. I was drawn to her and seeing her with Teale awoke the sex beast in me. If she hadn’t begged, I would have explored all her body. I knew she’ll probably hate me more than she does but I didn’t care. I was too soft on her and as a vampire Prince, I had to be strong and not become a weak prince in the sight of a human all because she looked like my dead lover.
The door to my room opened and someone stepped in. At first, I thought it’s was another slave until I looked closely at the person and it turned out to be Gabriella. She had cut her long hair that I love dragging and running my hand through. Her newly cut hair didn’t rhyme as one part was shorter than the other. When she raised her hand to look at me, I felt her emotion and she was in pain.
“What will you want me to do? Your highness,” she bows her head.
Something Gabriella would never do.
“My prince,” She bows again. “Stop bowing Gabriella,” I told her.
“Why my prince, isn’t that what you want?” I ignored her sarcastic question and stared at her hair.
I didn’t like the haircut. Believe me when I say Gabriella looks Good with any hairstyle but seeing her with short hair and a new attitude infuriated me. “Why did you cut your hair?” I asked her but she didn’t reply to me. “Why did you cut your hair?” I asked again but still, she didn’t reply nor did she raise her head to look at me. “Gabriella!” I yelled and grabbed her by the throat. With my super speed, I pushed her against the wall with my hand around her throat.
“When I ask you a question, you answer me!” Gabriella didn’t say anything nor show any sign of pain but I knew she was in pain because I felt her emotion. “What the hell is wrong with you?” I shouted at her but still, Gabriella didn’t respond. I let go of her throat and she gasped for breath. “When I say you should respect, I never said you should turn into a mute,” I shouted at her. I didn’t like the new her because the old Gabriella will never go down without a fight.
“You are feel infuriated right?” Gabriella finally spoke up. “What the hell is your problem your most highness!” She shouted. “You told me to obey you and I did. Why are you getting so worked up!” Now I like when she replied to me. “For your information Slade,” she exaggerates on My name. “You are a freaking bastard and you know what I am going to end you today!” She yelled and rushed to me. Before I knew what was happening she had slashed my arm with scissors. I didn’t even notice she had a scissor in her hand. I couldn’t even hear her thoughts because she pretend and didn’t think about killing me in her thoughts. All the silent treatment and fake attitude were to kill me but she didn’t know that as a royal vampire, the only way to kill me as if she stabbed me with the immortal knife that was with my father, the king.
The slash in my hand was quick to heal and in a blink of an eye, she cut me on the neck. Blood pooled out but it healed in a second. “Stop,” I grabbed my hand and twist it backward. She yelped and the scissor in her hand dropped. “You can’t kill me, Gabriella. The day you find out how to kill me, I’ll gladly accept my death gabby.” I told her and pulled her close to me. We both stared at each other in anger. Her eyes showed signs of anger and hatred.
“I’ll look for how to kill you and when I do Slade, I’ll burn your body into ashes.”
“I’ll gladly accept that.” I looked at her again and then stare at her lips. The urge to kiss her again came and I couldn’t resist as I placed my lips on hers but it didn’t end well. She bites my lips and kicks me in my family jewel. I yelped out in pain and fell to the ground. “I thought you were a vampire. Why are you acting like a little boy?” Did she mock?
“Are you crazy? I might be a vampire but I feel pain too especially if it’s my precious jewel.” I groaned out in pain.
“Glad you could feel pain,” she smiled wickedly and walked to the door.
“Where are you going? I need to clean my room.”
“Some of us need sleep. We don’t have all those superpowers you do and I hate you so much that seeing your face makes me want to puke.”
“But,” I tried to argue.
“Duh, duh, duh. Deal with your problems slide.” She told me and walked out of my room making sure she slammed the door loud. Whatever Gabriella’s presence was doing to me, it’s was working as I felt a terrible pain in my chest. It’s was aching and since a Vampire’s heart doesn’t beat I knew it has something to do with Gabriella. We don’t even feel pain and what I felt at that moment was Gabriella’s pain. I remember having the same bond with Bianca and it seems it was happening again. ~~~~~~~
Gabriella Monet POV
When I left Slade’s room, the sadness I felt before was gone. I was glad I got to make him feel pain. I always thought all the Vampires were immune to pain but since they were not perfect after all.
“Gabriella!” Someone shouted my name just outside my door. “It’s me, Daphne.”
“Daphne,” I rushed to the door and opened it. “Daphne,” I pulled her into a hug.
“What the hell happened?” She pointed to my hair.
“Slade happened,” I answered.
“What did he do this time? Did he hit you?”
“It was much worst.”
“Did he touch you?” She questioned.
“Yes he did,” Daphne let out a deafening scream and surveyed my body. “How dare he turned you into a pleasure slave?” She questioned. “I’m going to kill him.”
“Wait a sec Daphne, I have already tried that. He didn’t die.” I pulled her to my bed and we both sat down. I explained everything that happened to her and when I was done, Daphne’s mouth was wide opened.
“He did all of that? Why are you even surprised? They are all vampires and the rulers of our world. We have no say in it. Gabby,” she placed her hand on mine.
“You have to be patient with everything. We can’t do anything about it.” There Daphne goes again with words of encouragement which always sounds like noise in my ears.
“You have to bear with them so you won’t get killed. I know using you as a pleasure slave sounds bad but this is our fate and we need to accept it.” I freed my hand from hers and stood up from the bed.
“What the hell do you mean Daphne? I should accept getting used!”
“Don’t shout Gabriella. If we make a mistake. We will die. The vampires aren’t so bad after all. Kyle is different and…..”
“That’s where you are wrong!” I shouted at her and she flinched but I didn’t care because I was angry.” You think just because you are getting special treatment from a stupid vampire means they are all nice. Have you forgotten what the vampires did to our families? They killed my father and took my sister away. They raped your mother to death and killed your brother! Do you even know what the other humans are facing?”
“Don’t talk like that Gab,” Daphne also stood up and tried to touch me but I slapped her hand away. “We don’t have a say in this. I know the Vampires are bad but not all of them.”
“Stop!” I shouted. “You are so stupid. I know what you are doing. You think coming here and trying to rub it on my face would work!” I chuckled.
“You are foolish and the soonest you realize it, the better,” I told her.
“Not everyone is like you Gab,” she pointed out. ”
“What’s are you trying to say?”
“You are the foolish one. You think you can change the world! Wake up Gabriella, this is the real world. We are the vampire’s meal and it’s going to stay that way. You can’t change anything!” Daphne’s word pierced my heart but I pretend to be okay.
She was right about the real world but it was a world of pain and sorrow.
“Listening to you right now made me feel for your family Daphne. Your foolishness is going to cost people’s lives but I’m not like you, Daphne. I am going to fight until my last breath.” I told her.
“Fine,” she walked towards the door but before she walked out of the room, she turned to face me. “I hope you don’t regret this. ”
“The only thing I’ll ever regret was being friends with you. Now leave my room!” I shouted.
“Very well then, ” she replied and walked out of the room. As soon as she left, I fell to my bed and took a deep breath.
“Good riddance to bad rubbish,” I said to myself.
