CHAPTER 04

EVE'S POV:-

"Master, she is lying. It's a lie. I didn't say anything like that. I told her where she could find her clothes. She wants to separate me from you." She said and started sobbing hard. Master Hayden gritted his teeth and came to me. Before I could understand what was going on, a sharp slap made its way to my cheek. I fell on the ground. Because of the sudden impact, Master Salvador let go of my hand.

Master Hayden grabbed me by my neck and pulled me up. I started coughing due to his firm hold. He was choking me. "Hayden, that's enough. Let her go. She belongs to Master Adrian. If she dies, you will be the one to answer Master Adrian. Let her go now." Master Salvador yelled from behind but did not try to help me. My eyes fell on Melissa who had a satisfied smile on her face. As if she had won a game. A dirty game she was playing with me.

"Master Hayden, I said let her go now!!" Master Salvador repeated himself again and Melissa rolled her eyes. Master Hayden gritted his teeth and let go of me. I fell on the ground with a loud thud and I screamed in pain. Everyone heard a loud crack as I collided with the marbled floor. I started sobbing hard due to the sharp pain I was feeling inside my leg. I was sure that my leg was broken. 

Master Hayden grabbed a fist full of my hair and pulled my head back abruptly. It felt like he would break my neck. "Shut up! One more sound out of your mouth and I will break all your bones. Why are you screaming crazily? It's just a broken bone." Master Hayden yelled at me angrily. I tried to control myself but the pain was unbearable. I just could not control my sobs. Hearing my sobs, Master Hayden balled his fists in anger. He swung his hand and slapped me again. I was sitting closer to the stairs. As his hand collided with my cheek, I lost my balance and fell down from the stairs. Last I remember, I saw someone running towards me with my blurry vision then the darkness engulfed me.

MASTER ADRIAN'S POV:-

I hopped off of my bed as I saw the sun was already down, ready to disappear behind the mountains. I grabbed my bath gown and covered my naked body. I looked at the slave that was lying on the ground. I gritted my teeth and went into my bathroom. "Richard!!" I yelled loudly. In a blink of an eye, Richard was standing behind me. He filled the tub with hot water and helped me with my gown. I stepped into the soothing hot water. Salvador, my cousin entered the bathroom and I signalled Richard to leave us alone 

"Get this lifeless slave out of my sight. How many times do I have to tell you not to get me fragile slaves? Now you will do exactly as I will order you. Go to the Daemoniums. They have offered me a slave. As they told me, she is a rebellion. According to Justin, she has no control over her blood lust. I want you to go to them and pay them in exchange for the slave they have to offer me." I said and he bowed his head in respect.

"As you like, my honorable Master. But are you sure, a rebellion and someone who can not control her lust can become your loyal slave? How is that possible?" Salvador asked me in a low tone and I chuckled.

"Simple, you will be the one to handle her. But make sure she would not be touched by anyone. She will be my personal slave." I replied and he bowed his head again. I signalled him to leave me alone and he left. 

Once I was done with my bath, I went back to my bedroom which was all clean before I was back. I went to my closet and chose my suit for the day. I dressed up and brushed my hair. Once I was ready, I stepped out of my room. I went downstairs where my brother was waiting for me.

 Our family had a power in our blood. We were never affected by the sun. But of course, not the whole territory had those special powers. That was why the whole territory had the same rules. 

I sat beside my brother and the slaves came. They filled out glasses with fresh blood. But as usual, a human was brought for me to feed as I never liked animal's blood. I grabbed the wrist of the woman who was lying on the table, unconscious. My fangs grew bigger and I dug my fangs inside her wrist. I drank from her. I did not drink too much. I always made sure they would survive. Not that I cared if they would die. But I had a territory to control. I had to protect them from humans.

I stood up as I was done with my meal. I bid my goodbyes and went towards the cart that was ready for me. Salvador came and gave me my wand and my hat. I thanked him and stepped into the cart. 

I ordered the driver to take me towards the cave that was into my territory. I had heard that some creatures were living there. I had a strict rule in my territory. All the other creatures or supernatural beings were forbidden in my territory. 

The cart stopped and the driver came. He opened the door and I stepped out. I looked at all the creatures. They were all werewolves. Eight werewolves, to be specific. I went to them and my vampires threw them into my feet. "Master Adrian, have some mercy. Please don't kill us. Give us some time. We will get out of here soon. Please, have mercy." One of the creatures started begging me to let him live. 

"You have to know, you are not allowed into my territory. You had to think before making this mistake. Now I can not help." I replied to him and the women started crying.

"Kill them all and send their corps to their pack. Make sure they will hear us from now on." I ordered my vampires. They all bowed their heads and I turned around. But before I would have reached the cart that was waiting for me, all the werewolves were dead. I smirked and stepped into the cart again. One of the vampires came to me to close the door.

"Send a message to Ryan. Tell him to go to my palace before I would be there. I don't want him to be late." I ordered the vampire. He bowed his head and shut the door.
