The Given

CHAPTER EIGHT√ Suicide

Given's POV.

I walked slowly up the tiring stairs. Of course they called me the prince of demons because of my abilities. Tonight I had a task to remind them of who i am as they foolishly attempted to attack me.

Assholes! They are acting like worthless humans, easily swayed by words. Greedy for the powers of my recruit. Oh hell they would ever lay hands on her. She is mine to posses and only I will explore her powers, that's why am keeping her alive. Right?

I summoned my companion Verlan to take care of Marvel. Am sure the beast would restrain himself from eating her as we both share the same intensified hatred towards humans, he wouldn't dare even if he wanted to.

Getting out of the hall and walking back to my home wasn't so hard as most lords gave it a thoroughly thought over what action should they take. Except of course Lord Kreton and his excuse friend of Lord Syler. They commanded their servants to attack me as they left off probably to plan some wicked plans over me.

The incident in front of me however startled me. Marvel's eyes were closed  and her body shook uncontrollably as Elijah launched himself, eyes bloodshot and hands stretched to break her skin layer savagely.

On impulse I had Marvel away from the spot where she was. A gasp escaped her lips as my hands slightly grazed her hips in the process of backing.

Elijah landed on the spot in disappointment before looking over at me. I was in a grouchy mood. That fucking Eyka fucking managed to ruin my fucking day and my mind is not on set to fight another person cause my instincts were on "KILL". He tried to claw me and I won't have that shit.

I held him by the throat and lifted him off the ground with my arm as I let an animal growl inside me that brought him back to reality.

" Control yourself Elijah. I didn't choose to stay behind there to fight those mind ridden fuckers excuse of demons so that I can have her eaten by you! Gather your shit together! " my voice I noticed rose higher than normal that rewarded me with a terrified look on Elijah which is quite satisfying considering he barely makes any expressions.

" Master! Am Sorry! I ddidn't-"he failed to conjure some words to brace himself.

" Its her blood. Its driving him crazy as you know he is a ghoul master. Its been a while since he ever smelled such a pure blood that's why the temptation to-" Ramon scratched his head and cleared his throat"- eat her was high. And the action today also didn't help to keep his mind cool".

Of course virgin blood tends to attract attention. I remember it called out to me the very first day I saw her. I closed my eyes. How in the freaking hell will I deal with this? Have her fuck somebody tonight or?

I glanced at Ramon who had the guts to explain the situation." Wanna solve this?". Ramon stared at me in question. Puzzlement in his eyes. I rolled my eyes" You want to do the pleasures and fuck her?". His face turned a pink shade as blush crept up his facial features.
" nno no no. Aam, I can't". I stared at Elijah and I knew my answer already. No, or else he would bring back her bones.

" she is just a human, what can't you do!" Given asked Ramon quite pissed.

" you better find a fucking person to unhook your ch-" I turned to address her but she was gone.
Shit!

Where could she have gone?
" Find her, now!". Everyone got to searching. She is still inside this palace and once I get her. She will regret ever disappearing without notice.

Marvel's pOV

I ran for some time as tears flowed down my cheeks. Am just an asset for their wars and crazy conflicts. I will never be able to live a normal life, my fate was long decided since the day I started to have those visions. And just now when they were arguing they came back to me.
