Vampire & Witch; The Shadows

21

          ******* POV; LUCIAN******

Been an hour, where had the two witches disappeared to? And what was the little witch looking for?

   Normally, I never was interested in witch business unless it involved me or those under my rule, but something about that little princess made me feel on edge. Even though I would never admit it, her power scared me. Luckily, she was on her way back to her world(as soon as she found what she was looking for).
But I was just starting to experience the vampire's high.

       "Should I go check on them?" Flo's voice interrupted my thoughts.

I darted her my famous chilling glare and she immediately cowered away from me with her eyes on the ground.

  If anyone should go in, should be me. The little princess was mine, and mine alone as long as she was on our side of the realm.

I slowly turned around to head back in, just as an arrow of pain shot from the wound.
      "Devil's ass!" How would I deal with the excruciating pain? For how long?

His scent struck my nostrils before his form appeared out of nowhere right in front of me. The same scent from the night he struck me down... His mocking brown eyes felt like they were laughing at me.
    Weakness was something that had never existed in my dictionary, and showing it would be the last day I got to live.

      "Your gaze insults me!"

He took a step closer and a warning hiss arrowed from behind me. Ah, my overprotective subject.

  "I meant no harm Master Lucian, but you were hurting my future Queen."

So he talks!

    "But harm is already done."

"One that only I can fix. I'll pay my debt before I take the Princess back where she belongs."

I held his gaze, the damned bastard was really honest, and maybe loyal too.

   "You can start fixing right now!"

The male slid his right hand in the deep pocket of the long black coat he had on. If at all he was trying anything fishy, Flo would take care of him, doesn't matter if I would already be dead.
Out, he slid the hand that was once empty, only now he held a small bottle filled with a crimson liquid that smelled like contaminated blood, yet still fresh.

    "This is a mixture of my blood and heza. Two drops every twelve hours. The wound will heal in less than five days."

   I eyed the bottle suspiciously, before urging Flo to receive the 'medicine' for me.

Her scowl was on him as she came between us to snatch the bottle from his hands. "It better work or I'll come to Syra and drag you back here!"

   Apollo just offered her a flat gaze.

Damn! I was impressed by his lack of expression from the female's threat.

     "I'll leave you to it!" He said making a slight bow before vanishing into thin air.
Unlike the little princess, Apollo seemed to have mastered well the teleportation spell.

      "Your heartbeats are as annoying as your breathing!" I muttered, annoyed at the witch that had been following me around their property since we arrived.

She walked up from behind the large willow whose branches were dancing to the wind that had been blowing for about two minutes. With the sun still hidden by the clouds, I had the freedom to walk about and get some fresh Sidney air.

   "What do you want?" I questioned, watching her black eyes shift from calm to angry. That was something I had gotten used to, mostly from the female gender when I had wronged them in the past.

"What do I want?" Trix echoed fiercely. "How about what happened between us the last time you were here? Then you ghosted me for weeks... And now,now you show up here as if nothing even happened?"

         "Oh! That!"

"That?" She echoed again, but more hurt and disappointed. "You were the first man I...I..." Trix paused, maybe from the embarrassment kissing her cheeks a shade of red, or the tears glistening in her puppy eyes.

I liked her when she was all raged up, not emotional like a child.

     "I hate you Lucian!"

I shrugged, "Been hated by worse people honey."

She sniffed, swiping her bare arm over her nose to wipe the tears mixing with the thin mucus trailing from her nostrils. "I'll make you pay for this one day you devil!"

  I sighed, "Devil is my middle name baby!"

Her lips parted, then closed. With one last scowl, Trix whirred around and stormed away along the gravel path leading back to her house.

It's not my fault that she had seduced me, not my fault that I had accepted her advances. The glitter in her eyes that night had been irresistible, not to mention how bound I had felt, which I came to later find out was a spell. Yes, the witch had cast a seduction spell on me, something that had almost led me to have her executed had her father not pleaded for her life.

    Aaah! What a merciful ruler I was.

Three minutes ticked by, all along the scent of the little princess had been molesting my entire body, from my nose to my loin.

   Something about her blood turned me on so badly. It was taking all the control in me to hold myself from dashing at her behind that tree and burrowing my fangs deep in her neck as I made myself comfortable in her center. Yes! It would feel so hot taking her right there in the open as the wind sang her melodies to us making love.

When she didn't come out, I did what was in my mind, flash around that tree. Though I left out the sucking and fucking part.

     Syin gasped to the unexpected sight of me while I immediately pushed her against the tree by the shoulders.

For a millisecond, I saw a beam of gladness cross her gray eyes before it was corrupted by a needle of spite. "Trix too?"

      "Whatever do you mean by that my little-"
"Don't bother answering!" She knocked off my hands to jump to the side of the tree, away from me.
