The Vampire King

Chapter 17: A beaten King

A week went by since the gathering king Donovan held for the kingdoms surrounding his. Word spread quickly amongst the humans about what happened that day. Rumors were also spreading that a war may come and that a possibility was I am dead. Nobody knew that I am still here, alive in my cell and in pain. I wanted to kill this human filth myself and make his family pay for what is currently happening.

  Of course the girl, King Donovan's mistress came down. She was alone and had a worried look on her face. Thankfully she was fully clothed this time than her usual nakedness. Sometimes she would let the guard outside of my cell pleasure himself when she visited. Hearing the both of them moan as they fucked each other. It did go on for hours as she begged the guard to keep going and finishing inside of her at least twice. Or that's what I thought, but I didn't keep up with their sexual activity. The guard smirked at her and rand his hand down her cheek to her breasts before he let her into my cell.

  Laying on the cold flooring in the center of the cell. Face down with my nose and mouth bloody from getting punched relentlessly by the guards. Lenore had a blanket in her hands that was for me. She somehow cared for me and I didn't understand why. I still had the whip marks on my back but they were dealt with by someone taking care of them generously. My thoughts were that she did this or had gotten a nurse to stitch them and clean up the blood. It still hurts since I was out cold after being brought back in her. Still barely able to move as I struggle to look up at Lenore when she knelt infront of me.

  Thankfully she put the blanket over me, waist down before speaking. "How are you holding up?"

  Grunts as I could barely manage to use my arms to hold myself up. "I think I can manage with little to no movement for now Lenore"

  She puts her palm on my cheek. "I'm sorry you have to go through this. He's not so gentle on those who aren't human and on those who go against his wishes"

  "Yes, I can see that. He had the man that was brought in here for stealing something. The guards beat him senseless and now he's dead. It's a matter of time before I meet the same fate once my body gives up"

A tear runs down her cheek. "You're stronger than that"

The guard came in and took her away before more could be said. I was in my cell alone again as I pant. There needs to be a way out of here without alarming anyone. I just lauded there quietly as a plan to get out safely. Looking around for anything I can use.

  Sighs in defeat, these people are smart to keep the cells clean of anything that could be useful of an escape. Hopefully Star can come soon with help of my men soon before I'm dead. The rumors of a war may be true but that happening can also just be talk to scare people. I would have to be patient.
