Chapter Thirty three
It was three days since she had been sent the letter, requesting for her presence and now she stood In the midst of high vampires who moved four feet away from her as she entered the room.
She had not been able to meet Selene for a while now, and she wondered, if Selene would be in the same room with her.
She felt quite uncomfortable been alone with the werewolves and she felt her body shiver at each single stares they gave her.
The judgment room as she had come to hear was filled with different chairs which was placed above the floor, you need the support of a stair before you could locate a sit.
The vampires in the room was different from the ones she had been used to in the mansion.
They looked scary with thick dark eyes, almost dark as the vampire king, just that, the vampire king, had a much more scarier eye color than the rest.
Speaking of the vampire king, she had not seen him for a while now, probably, he was obeying her words.
Her thoughts were interrupted when the door opened, revealing Blade, the familiar man whom she had always been seeinf him with walking beside him.
Slowly, her eyes made contact with Blade and she felt her body quivered with that same unknown feeling which she had come to have only by his stare and talks.
Slowly she diverted her eyes down to his chest, she noticed three button on his shirts were lightly opened and she felt her heart beating furiously, her cheek lit up with fire and slowly she turned around, hiding the blush that was beginning to form on his face.
Blade stared at her, quickly seeing the blush that glazed on her face, his eyes darkened more, he felt like stroding towards her and then taking her out from the room to his own room, there he do pin her on the wall and do crazy things with her, informing her who she belonged to.
Quickly he walked toward his throne, seeing the elders were already sitting waiting for his arrival.
Soon enough, the guards dragged Azura to the room, her hair was messy, there was no doubt she must have tried messing up with his guards and they must have had a tough time placing her in a good position.
“Tie her to the tower.”
Bella heard the right hand man of the vampire king said, the woman who had been dragged into the room was the person who was to be punished. Instantly, she felt pain and pity for the poor lady, she wondered what the lady must have done that must have prompted the king to punish her.
She was surprised to see the woman not struggling to be freed from them, but instead, she kept a mean face, as If she had been waiting for these punishment her whole life.
The vampires who had been glancing at her previously now stared at the wonan who had been tied on the tower.
“The reason for the punishment of Azura Ashrak Aloric was that Azura had said mean words to the king….. and his….”
“Do not say any further words Carson, everyone know the crime she had committed, now punish her with twenty whips of a horsetail.”
Blade Interrupted Carson, throwing him a fierce glare.
Blade knew If Carson mentioned any statements about his mate been the main reason why he was mating a punishment to Azura, he would create more enemies for her and that would put her life at risk.”
Bella gasped at the punishment which would be mated upon the vampire, again she wondered if insulting the king demand such magnitude of punishment.
The first slash on her body made Azura freeze with pain, the pain was so immense that she felt her flesh almost tearing, every slash she received from the guard imprinted more hatred in her heart for the she wolf, she looked up slightly, seeing the werewolf staring at her, her eyes instantly changed red, her canines grew long but another long heavy slash on her caused her to whimper in pain, and another slash broke her completely as a terrifying scream escaped her lips, her scream was the only noise which could be heard in the room, together with the sound of the whip. She felt her body stagger and slowly she dropped on her knees, her eyes still maintaining contact with the King’s mate, she could feel the way she shivered at each stares she gave her, the last slash came wiping on her body and instead of a scream to escape her lips, a little smile left her lips, she do make the King’s mate pay. She do come for revenge, for causing pain to her, and at that thought, she dropped down on the floor and fainted.
Bella was still frozen, not by what she saw but by the heavy glares the unknown Azura was throwing on her, the woman, Azura, was staring at her as if she was the cause of everything that was happening to her, she could feel a lot og emotions which settled in her eyes, an emotion similar to what she was feeling towards her pack, an emotion of hate and also…… revenge.
When she saw her fall on the ground at the last whip, she felt a pain tug in her heart for her, her back was filled with the mark of the whips and blood flowed down her body, her flesh torn.
A voice came, jotting her out from her thoughts, it was Blade, the vampire king, her mate.NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
“We are done for today. But I need you all to know these, I will treat anyone who insults me or anything that belongs to me…..”
Bella felt his eyes strain towards her at his words and without thinking twice, she knew he was referring to her as his possession, then again, he continued with his speech.
“The same way I treated these woman who lay faint on the floor.”
Blade said, and at his words, the whole elders began murmuring at themselves.
Blade glanced at Aloric, Aloric glanced back at him, as If knowing he was going to stare at him, Blade smiled lightly at the old elder, but Aloric instead, gave him a little glare, it was little, but Blade was not a fool to miss it, and right then, he knew the war had started, an unknown secret war in the council had started.
Quickly Bella left the hall quickly walking to the room which had been assigned for her to stay, her mate, the vampire’s king room. She looked like a mess, her heart was thudding with fear and anxiety, she did not know why the vampire had stared at her with so much hatred and anger.
She was so consumed with her thoughts that she did not know when she crashed on a body, she felt sparks flowing through her body and quickly realizing whom she had crashed on, she backed off, walking away from the vampire king.
“Do I sting?”
Blade said, his eyes darkening the more, he was quite unhappy seeing her moving back away from him.
“Ooh no, I just didn’t see you coming so I ummmm…”
Bella said, not knowing what to say, she knew how angry he would always be anytime she takes few paces away from him and now it was quite obvious he was angry.
“You have something stuck in your lips.”
Blade said, taking few steps towards her, each step he took towards her made her back off to the wall, she was still scared of him.
Blade realized her actions, slowly a devilish smile crept up on his lips, quickly he took larger strides towards her and quickly she walked back, making her smash her back against the wall.
‘This is where I wanted her’
“You still find me uncomfortable, why?”
Blade said, placing his two huge arm on the wall, beside her head, caging her between his arms. His sleeves was raised up revealing his tanned huge arms which made her dizzy for a while.
Definitely, she was scared of him because he could hurt her, just like Lucas had done or maybe, he was different from Lucas.
She waved her head at these thoughts, she could not trust him so easily, especially knowing he was a vampire, not just a vampire, but the vampire king.
“I can’t trust you, you will hurt me!”
Bella said, immediately she said those words, she felt his hands quickly rode down to her hips, smashing her body towards him as he brought his face towards her ears, she felt her body reacted to his, the feeling of his subtle beards which was grazing on her chin caused her to shiver and she felt something tingle in between her thighs, something she had never felt before, was she breaking her barriers, so easily? Bella thought.
“I will never hurt my mate and I will never give anyone the chance to do so, you belong to me and only me, I will never allow anyone take you, NEVER!”
Blade said, and quickly he placed his lips on her neck, biting a little part of her flesh, causing her to shiver, she placed her hands on his chest, trying to push him off from her, but Blade was quick enough to stop her by placing his hands on her hands, steading her hold on his chest.
The last sentence he made knocked her off her breath.
“My heart beat for you only Moi Amour!”
She heard him say, and quickly, he left her side, leaving her body and heart shuddering with unknown excitement. She felt her body almost falling on the ground due to what she had just experienced with him.
The vampire king was causing a feeling in her, a feeling which she had never felt before, and she knew what It was, it wouldn’t take long before he breaks her barriers because right now, he was making her feel special, something no one had ever made her feel.
‘Maybe had she done a mistake, by making telling him how insecure she was with him, for informing him to back off from her, was she a fool’
She waved her head again, still controlling her raging heart beats.
“Don’t keep me waiting”
Again that voice rang in her head and then she knew, she wouldn’t have to keep the vampire king waiting, or would she?
She thought again, she groaned, hitting her head lightly on the wall, her life was a total mess.
