Zayne's POV

"Zayne, come in."

I glared at my father as I slowly took steps into the room.

"Ahh how have you been?" He asked with a smirk.

"I've been better." I said annoyed.

"Ah yes well, gentlemen if you will excuse us my son and I need to have a chat." He excused the council members.

They bowed their heads and exited the room. By the time they left, I was at the bottom of the steps looking up at my father who had a devilish grin. We looked at each other for a while before I broke the silence,

"You wanted to see me," I said.

"Oh yes...did you go buy a pet?" He asked.

"Yes, I did" I answered, rolling my eyes.

"Good. What's her name?"

"Emberlynn"

"Emberlynn, what a beautiful name."

I rolled my eyes, "Is that all you needed me for?" I questioned wanting this conversation to be over.

"Have you drunk from her yet?"

My face went from complete boredom to worry in a second. I looked at him for a while in silence as my eyes filled with guilt.

"You haven't, haven't you?" He said looking deep into my eye like he was staring into my soul.

"You know the whole reason for getting you a pet, yes."

"Yes, I do"

"Then do it" he commanded.

"You know what will happen if I do, and I am not doing it."

"So, you lose control, who cares?"

"I am not doing it and that is final!" I huffed.

It was silent for a while, both of us just staring at each other in complete hate.

"If you are to become Lord you will have to be a vampire, and a vampire doesn't drink animal blood, especially a Lord."

I didn't respond. I tore my gaze away from him, angered by the fact he brought up my future of being Lord. He shouldn't be worrying about my future. After a couple seconds of more silence he finally said,

"Bring her"

I froze. What did he just say? I slowly looked up at him in shock.

"What?" I breathed out.

"You heard me, bring her in."

"Why?" I questioned.

"Why can't I see my son's new pet?" He grinned.

"There is something more to it." I said glaring back.

"Then bring her and I will tell you." He said with that ugly grin still on his face. I looked at him in anger wanting to rip his throat out. He then narrowed his gaze at me knowing it would get me.

"Fine" I tore my gaze away from him and turned around walking towards the door. I heard him chuckle before shutting the door behind me.

The whole time I was walking back to my room I was thinking about Emberlynn. What could he want from her? All I know is that it wasn't good. And it broke my heart thinking about what will happen to her. She has already been through so much so adding this on top would ruin her.

Once I got to my door, I stood there staring at the door not wanting to go in and tell her she had to go meet my father. I took a deep breath and turned the handle.

Emberlynn's POV

Zayne had been gone for about an hour, maybe a little more. About 15 minutes after he left, I got bored and started to draw. I found a plain piece of paper and a pencil from the ground and started to draw away.

I sat by the window drawing the view from the window when I started to see something glow. I looked down and noticed my necklace was glowing pink through my dress. I took it out to observe it. It has never done this before so I didn't know what could possibly mean. After about five seconds of looking at the necklace, the door opened, and Zayne walked in. I quickly stuffed my necklace back in my dress. When he walked in, he seemed stressed and scared at the same time. I watched as he put a hand through his hair and sat in his chair. He then looked up to meet my eyes, we both looked at each other in concern.

"Are you ok?" I asked.

He didn't say anything at first and just kept looking at me like he was sorry. He then tore his gaze away and looked down. I put my drawing down and hopped off the couch. I walked towards him slowly. Once I got about a foot away, he looked up into my eyes.

"Zayne..." I said in a worried tone. Again, he didn't say anything we just stared at each other for a while, I was starting to get lost in the beautiful ice blue eyes, until he finally spoke,

"My father wants to see you."
