Chapter 2

★

{.... Bleawky Town ....A dark forest...}

Horse neighed,the hoof resounding on the forest floor in the dark and cold night,cloak fluttering in the wind,as the smashing of wip on horse sounded .

A huge cave was up ahead,the man jumped down from the horse, tie it to a tree before slipping,with a snap of his finger light flickers in the cave as he walked deeper.

Clang!...

The red wine stained the white carpet as the man sitting on the black throne bellowed in fury.

" What do you mean you failed".

" Am sorry my Lord but we ...."

"Silence don't give me that bull crap how old is that god-damned duke to go against me,that was the most potent poison to weakened his power and you tell me of your failure ".

The men bowing all trembled with fear as they kept quiet knowing any further words would cost there heads.

" My Lord"

"Addi hope you bought good news else...."the threatening messages gave the man a chill as he bowed .

" My Lord it's indeed good news"...

" Speak...

" My Lord,the new mistress is dead didn't last the night".

Xavier who was toying with the ruby ring on his finger paused,his red eyes shinning brightly,as he grinned wickedly.

" Hahahahah, excellent,looks like the curse hasn't been lifted hahahaha"..Xavier roared the men all kept silent before Xavier sneered.

" Are you telling me the mistress who was just bought in not less than a day is dead"Xavier asked again and Addi muttered a "Yes".

"This should be his 18th mistress,after his five concubines death,what a waste of his lifeline"Xavier tsk.

"You have done a great job,and as for you"....Xavier eyes dimmed as he eyes the previous men who shivered with fear.

" Infiltrate the castle with our men,to gather information,you know what to do and if you fail me again ,you won't even know how you die.

" Yes my Lord"...

" You are dismissed Addi you stay"

The men left but not one of them look at Addi with envy and hate before following the rest out.

" My Lord,is there anything else you would like me to do for you"Addi asked in confusion.He looked up to see Xavier eyeing him lewdy making him blush in embarrassment.

"...."

Addi was starting to feel stuffy,as his palm felt sweaty,he even broke out in cold sweat." Who didn't know Xavier had no dislike as he slept with both male and female"He felt nervous just thinking about it.

Addi was startled when ,his chin was held looking up to see Xavier eyes which had turned dull red and not shinning like the previous time.

" My Lord I.....

" You know you look attractive am afraid one day some one gonna steal you from me"Addi gulped and Xavier trail his throat down to his chest.

"Your reward I should give it to you".

" Oh goodness"Addi cried out in his heart before he could put his thoughts together,Xavier eyes suddenly shone bright as he bit his neck.

The pain came in such force that Addi screamed his pain clenching his fist by his side,Xavier savour the blood from his neck as Addi felt his vision grow darker before fainting in Xavier's arm.

"I will have you in my bed sooner or later"Xavier whispered to the unconscious Addi using his finger to trail the mark that had form on his neck in satisfaction.

" Anyone there"....

Xavier eyes turned cold as he called out,three deranged vampires and a butler came out.

" My Lord"...

" Take him"...

The deranged vampire carried Addi away the butter leading the way to the guest room.

The room grew quiet,Xavier who had just got a bite of Addi's blood suddenly felt his right go itching and trembling in pain but he wasn't groaning in pain but smiling with excitement.

" Finally,his powers were awakening, hahahaha"he watched as some tattoo started to form from his fingers before stopping at his elbow,his eyes glinting with a dark light.

"Duke Zander,enjoy the peaceful days while you can,with the curse on you and my power returning,you will perish by my sword hahahaha".his maniac laugher resounded through the cave echoing and frightening the nearby bats which flew away.

"Duke Zander you will fall hahaha!.....

____________

Camilla watched as the two men with her fought the deranged vampires who had lost there sanity and want nothing more than to drain the blood of there victims dry.

" Young miss, please leave"...

"Christopher,you don't except me to run away with tail tucked behind my back and leave you guys here".

Camilla sneered as she watched the battle.

One of the deranged vampires suddenly lurged at her,his contaminated finger aimed at her throat, Camilla eyes dimmed as she watched the vampire with distain.

" Young miss get down you....." The word got stuck in Christopher's throat as an two arrows flew out from her bow,one killing the vampire the other flying towards Christopher's direction,his eyes wide before he heard a grunt and a thump behind him to realize a vampire sneaking an attack at him was killed.

" You....

" Just saved your ass,you can thank me later"Camilla smirked making his lips twitched.

Camilla started firing the arrows at the vampires killing some,and wounding some giving the two men the advantage to finish them off swiftly.

Up in a tree,the leaves swayed and Zander look at the battle in front of him with an amused look,three humans,but the girl didn't have the smell of a human nor vampire,but her speed and fighting skill were good.

The brunt man killed the last vampire with his sword, putting it in it case.

" Young miss that's the last of them"...

" Huh...."Camilla eyes suddenly shone,her body tensed with alert as she grabbed two arrows and fired it to the direction of the tree,Zander didn't expect the incoming attack leaving him shock,but before he could shift,the sharp edge of one of the arrows cut his cheek,before both got stuck in a tree.

Woosh!...

Camilla frown,before walking towards there horses," let's get out of here the forest is dark and thick with danger,we don't know what or who is hiding in it"..

" Yes miss"

The duos climbed up the horses and speed away,but not far away a peer of red eyes stared at them with red burning eyes before flashing towards the place where they battled.

He look at the deranged vampires,his eyes settling on a familiar tattoo before he frowned," that bastard what's he up to now" .

He checked the aftermath,before seeing one of the arrows shot by the girl, removing it he played with it softly, chuckling darkly " that girl was too sharp,even he was slow to notice her attacks,any lateness and he would have lost his handsomeness".

" Girl I will remember this!..

Taking the arrow with him ,he looked at the dead bodies waving his hand and fire erupt burning it to ashes feeling satisfied his figure flashed through the woods leaving the area peaceful and quiet as if a fight hadn't just taken place an hour ago"...

{..... Duke's Castle.....}

Quinn was checking round the castle he was the bulter in charge making sure everything was done to perfection,his cold blue eyes was scanning the area when two maids bowed to show respect.

"Bulter Quinn"....

" Has the body been taken care off"...

" Yes sire"...

" Good you're dismissed ".

The maid bowed before moving away,Quinn spared them a look walking down the hallway before taking a detour going towards the Duke's resident.

He knocked on the door, announcing his presence, hearing no sound,his eyebrows narrowed before he opened the door to see an empty room,even the sheet was cold.

"My Lord"....Quinn called out and was starting to have an headache where did the duke vanished to again,he was still thinking of what to do when a figure flashed in front of him leaving him dizzy.

" My Lord...."Quinn called out carefully.

" What's it"Zander asked toying with the arrow in his hand,as he flip it through his fingers.

"Phweee..."Quinn sign in relief before his eyes filled with confusion." My Lord,this arrow...."

" Got it from the humans who fought with deranged vampires".

Quinn face turned ugly hearing it," are you okay my Lord,those things need to be dealt it"...

" Indeed"Zander chipped in before continuing"but am surprised by there strength,there speed is really good,here find out the family which uses the lilly symbol , this arrow should give some hints".

Quinn looked at the arrow in his hand before nodding"I understand,then I beg to take my leave "...

Zander waved his hand and Quinn exit the room,the door closed leaving him to his company,his fingers rammed on the desk,a smirk tugging on his lips remembering the girl swift attacks..

" How interesting"and his eyes darkened furthered..
