In Debt

{8}

I stand stiffly as the man leads me to the the center of the ballroom. I can't believe Rhett just let me go. I need to get it out my mind that this is just business. This vampire wouldn't try anything in such a public place right? Would Rhett even care if he did. I am after all just one human.

He smiles at me before bowing and I quirk an eyebrow at him confused.

He chuckles "you have to bow...I thought you would know what to do..after all you are Mr.Ottavas assissant."

I blush despite his rudeness. I bow tugging on my dress hoping it dosen't look as clumsily as I feel. My feet hurt already, not used to heels.

I grit my teeth irrated at the man in front of me before muttering "forgive me vampire for my manners, I just started and am starting to get the hang of things." What are you doing Leslie! This man could destroy you in one flick of his wrist. Here I am letting my attitude get the best of me.

He grins his eyebrows raised "feisty one we got here, I like it."

He grabs my hand and slides his arm around my waist without me having time to blink.

Curse vampire speed.

My heart quickens as were pressed chest to chest. I never been this close to a man vampire besides Rhett and let me tell you I'm starting to miss his over pocessive stance.

I blink letting out a gasp as his fingers trail my hips "such a beautiful curvy human." he whispers.

We sway to the music.

I clear my throat finally looking up at him..voicing my thoughts. "who are you?"

"My name is DaVinci Bordello-king of well I guess you can say the world."

My eyes widen "Your Davinci Bordello...I...I-" I stutter as he spins me.

He grins.

DaVinci Bordello is the man who runs everything. Sure Rhett Ottava is the richest and most powerful but DaVinci here can destroy anything and anyone with the blink of his eyes. He is also known as one of the world's most cruelest vampires who buys pets torture them,use them, then kills him for his own sick joy. He is also a King. I heard he killed his own mother and father when he was child. He took over and all hell fell-that's when slave owners got really big.

"Cat got your tongue my princess." he whispers next to my ear.

I shake in his arms feeling incredibly uncomfortable.

"so quiet now huh? I have a question for you-why are you Mr.Ottava assistant?... he never has had one or needed one before. It it because your beautiful? I have to admit you have this spark in your eyes and the body of a goddess. One of the most finest women I seen -and trust me I seen alot considering I'm over 1000 years old, but yet that doesn't explain why your not one of his pets."

He tightens his hand on my waist.

"But we can change that-in fact I have a purpose."

He sniffs my neck deeply groaning

"A...a purpose?" I ask shaking under his touch petrified.

"God you smell amazing, and I bet you taste amazing as well." he mutters sliding his cold tonque along my neck.

"Yes a purpose my dear- I'll pay you twice as much as Ottava over here as long as you become mine."

I feel lightheaded and shakey and sick to my stomach. Someone clears their throat and DaVinci look ups at Anthony. I can practically feel my eyes pleading his to save me.

"I would like to have a dance with Leslie, Bordello, it's my turn." Anthony states keeping his gaze on DaVinci who thinks but then nods.

"Ofcourse."

He lets me go thankfully but grabs my hand kissing it.

"Think about it carefully Leslie." he struts away and I finally take a deep breath.

Anthony soothes my back "let's get you back to Rhett yes? Your looking quite pale my dear."
I move with him my motions robotic.

"Thank you Anthony." I whisper gratefully.

His eyes widen slightly before he throws me a carefree smile "don't worry about it-like I said sharing is caring." He wiggles his eyebrows at me and I laugh lightly rubbing my arms as we make our way to Rhett.

I felt a pair of eyes on me always.
