LOGINMASTER ADRIAN'S POV:-
The cart stopped in front of my palace. One of the drivers stepped out and opened the door of the cart for me. I stepped out with my bags in my hands. I just wanted to go back inside. I wanted to lie on my bed and forget about Lissie. Her tears started to make me feel bad. I was not habitual of that feeling. As I went closer towards the door, I heard a whimper. I looked up and found someone sitting at the door. I sighed as I knew someone must have pranked that poor soul.
"Please, for the love of Lord Adrian Cerberus, open the door. I will freeze to death out here." I heard Eve's voice. She was begging to get in. As I reached the door, I noticed that she was in her nightie. She was shivering with the cold. It was way too chilly night for Eve to be outside. Seeing her out, something snapped inside me.
"What are you doing outside of the castle? Did I not tell you to stay inside and not to go out without my permission?" I asked her in an angry tone and she held her breath as always. She did not reply to me. She did not even turn around to look at me. That angered me even more. I gritted my teeth as I did not get anything from her.
"Answer me!" He roared at her angrily and she jumped in fear. Breathing heavily, she turned around and looked at me. She started shivering with fear as she saw my red glowing eyes and angry face.
"It is not my fault. I did as you had ordered me, Master Adrian. Melissa dragged me from my bedroom and pushed me out." She replied between her sobs and hiccups. Hearing her sobbing, I felt bad yelling at her. But her reply made me even angrier.
"She did what? Since how long you have been out here?" I asked her in a worried tone as I dropped everything I had in my hands. I quickly stripped off my coat then I quickly covered her almost frozen body with my coat. She whimpered as the coat covered her body.
"I do not know how long it has been. I am starting to feel numb." She replied to me. Then suddenly, she held her head. Breathing heavily, she was about to fall on the ground but I was faster than her. I caught her before her head would have hit the ground. I grabbed her by her waist. I pulled her up into my arms and carried her bridal style. A small smile was on her lips as she saw me carrying her. After that, she lost consciousness. I could not help but smile at her innocence. I knew she would not ask me why I yelled at her. She would say that it was a mistake and she forgave me. She had a very big heart. Bigger than the territory I had.
I kicked the door twice and heard Melissa laughing hysterically, like it was a joke. I gritted my teeth and was about to break the door when I sensed Ryan around. Without a single word, he came to me and held the door open for me. Melissa tried to shut it at my face but in a blink of an eye, Ryan pinned her with the ground.
"I will deal with you by myself this time." I just said and she went all pale. I signalled Ryan and he dragged her towards the dungeon. I climbed up the stairs and walked towards my bedroom. I opened the door and locked it as I was inside the room. I took her to bed and gently laid her down.
I also laid down on the bed and pulled her closer to me. She inhaled my scent deeply and a cute smile made its way to her pink lips. She wrapped her arms and legs around me and snuggled even closer to me. Her beautiful face made me forget about everything and everyone. I did not even remember why I was this upset.
I did not know how long I kept staring at her. She moved a bit and stretched her arms. She was waking up. I quickly closed my eyes and pretended like I was asleep. I could almost feel her staring at my face and admiring my beauty, as she always has claimed. According to her, I was a thousand times more beautiful than her. She even admired me like I was an angel.
She was about to touch her finger on my face when I grabbed her hand and opened my eyes. She gasped as she saw me wide awake. I smirked mischievously as her cheeks turned pink as roses. "You are being very naughty. I need to teach you a lesson. You have earned a punishment." I said and leaned over her neck. I smiled as I noticed her arching her neck to give me better access.
"Where did you learn this from, Eve?" I asked her and she shook her head.
"From nowhere. It just happened on its own." She replied and I checked. I pecked her forehead and flipped her over. I pinned her with the bed and looked at her. She did not look straight into my eyes. She was shy but not the way I had left her.
"Hmm… my Eve had missed me." I said and pecked her cheek. She nodded her head and tried to peck my cheek and well but I did not let her. She pouted cutely and I laughed out loud. I shook my head at her innocence and laid on top of her. As I let go of her hands, she quickly wrapped her arms around my neck and started massaging my head. I just did not understand but she was my peace. I did not know when but she actually became my everything. Like a wish that is closer to be fulfilled.
Burying my face on the crock of her neck, I closed my eyes. "I am back, Eve. You can sleep now." I said as I knew she was still trying to stay awake. She had missed me more than I had missed her. Maybe, because she was all alone and was waiting for me only while I was not alone at all.
EVE'S POV:-I buried my face in the crock of his neck and inhaled his masculine scent deeply. It calmed my nerves whenever I am scared or nervous. But if I am blushing or feeling excited, Master Adrian's scent always makes it hard for me to resist him. He had told me that he would not touch me. Not until I would feel the same way for him as he felt for me. I was his mate but I had never felt anything like he had described.Yes, I was attracted to him and I wanted to spend all my life in his arms. But the feeling of being his mate was still missing. I knew how it felt to be a mate. It's like a jigsaw puzzle. Like the jigsaw puzzle is not complete without it's missing pieces, creatures are also incomplete without their mates. Master Adrian had completed my life with his love and care and the way he cherished me was something I had not imagined. I had never gotten any treatment like that ever before. But still, n
EVE'S POV:-I was standing on the balcony of Master Adrian's bedroom. He was still in bed. He did not wake up but I wanted to see the sun set. As I was not a vampire, I was able to see the sun. I always liked to sit into the sunlight and enjoy the warmth it offers to every single living being in this world. To be honest, I have ever prayed not to become a vampire. For me, the sun and its warmth was like a gift. Something I had never gotten into my life.I once had heard that a mother's arms were like the warmth of the sun. And the light of the sun belongs to a father. They lighten up the world of their children so they can grow bigger and stay healthy. For me, I did not have a mother who would protect me from cold and did not even have a father who would lighten up my world. But thank God that he had created the sun for people like me. For me, the sun was both my father and my mother.

EVE'S POV:-I was lying on my bed and was reading one of the books I was given by Master Adrian. He knew I would be alone after he would be gone. So he left me tons of books. I heard a knock on my bedroom door. I sat up and straightened up my clothes. "Come in." I said and the door opened. Ryan stepped into the room and bowed his head in respect."My mistress, I have something to take care of. I am going out. Do you need anything? You can tell me." He asked me and I shook my head."I don't need anything. Thank you for asking. Just tell me, when will Master Adrian come back home?" I asked him in a hopeful tone. I expected him to come back soon. But he had been away from me for more than a month."My Lord Adrian said it could take time. I am sorry, my mistress. I don't know when he will be back. He did not tell me anything specific about his return." He replied and I s
MASTER ADRIAN'S POV:-I sighed and took Lissie towards the bed. I made her sit and I sat beside her. I knew she had gotten attached with me but I just could not give her what she wanted from me. It was not her place. Eve was the only one I needed in my life. And I did not tell her anything about my mate at all. Not that I did not miss Eve while I was with her. I had missed Eve every single moment. But that did not mean that I would break Lissie's heart.I wrapped my arm around her and pulled her to my chest. "Lissie, from now on, you will not be a slave here. You will be a turned vampire. You can do whatever you want to do. Your debts are clear. And your brother will be fine. You don't have to worry about anything. But if you are thinking that I would take you with me to my territory, I am sorry. I can not do that." I replied and she broke the hug. With tears in her eyes, she looked at me and I sighed again as I knew
LISSIE'S POV:-After that incident, Master James was strictly ordered to say away from me. Master Adrian warned him saying that he was still alive because he was the right hand for Master Gerard. Otherwise, Master Adrian would have strangled Master James to death. Master Gerard also ordered him to stay away from all the slaves. All the slaves thanked me. As Master Gerard's territory was a living hell for all the slaves because of the wrath of Master James. It was really a nightmare for me to face that time. But in the end, I was saved. And I was saved by Master Adrian.It was impossible for everyone to believe that Master Adrian did not just save my life but also turned me. As I had heard, Master Adrian never turned anyone for a long time. Even Master Gerard was surprised to see that I was turned by Master Adrian.I had heard from many people that whoever takes your virginity, you get att
