Thank you, so much for reading this, I really appreciate it. I hope you enjoy the story, I am kind of a novice at this, so go ahead and give me some friendly critics in the comments. Anyway, let's get on with the part.


The man who Nina was supposed to be marrying was a sweetheart, he couldn't be much older than her, and he seemed intent on lavishing her with gifts, loving treats, and expensive things. The room he had set her up in was that of a fantasy, the bed alone felt like a cloud of angel feathers, the ruby, silk sheets were smooth and comfortable, like that of an angels touch caressing thin body whenever it touched her pale skin; the rest of the room was like heaven. The furniture was intricately carved with beautiful patterns, the armchairs were plush and made of the finest material, the fucking carpet was like that of a sheep's wool underneath her feet. She loved the room, from the maroon wallpaper, to the vanity that sat next to the door, across from the bed, it was a wonderful room in a wonderful house. Best of all, Jackson, her betrothed, wasn't some pervert like Daniel, who was bent of raping her as soon as she had laid down.
With a long sigh, she sunk into the warm water and bubbles in the marble bathtub that was pressed against the smooth, tiled wall in the large bathroom that was conjoined to her lovely bedroom. She soaked in the comforting water for a few moments, forgetting the stressful world around her for the time being, and simply enjoyed the fact that she was being taken care of. After a few moments of reveling in the leisure of everything, she stepped out of the wondrous tub in a fluffy blue towel that was wrapped around her body while she walked into the wonderful bedroom that was almost too marvelous for her to handle. A smile was prominent on Nina's face as she shed the towel and pulled on a silky red nightgown that fell down to her knees. The room was warm, despite the shower of snow that was pouring outside of Nina's window, so she took a chance and didn't wear undergarments, allowing herself to enjoy the feeling of the soothing material cling to her body compassionately.
Letting out a long yawn, the ebony haired woman crawled underneath the warm covers, wallowing in the plush mattress and heavy covers. Letting out another yawn, Nina smirked, cuddling into her pillow blissfully before drifting into a deep, relaxing slumber. She was floating on a cloud of happiness right now.

Slowly, Nina came back into reality, she blinked drowsily as she laid there, still holding the white feather pillow. The darkness of her room was strangely comforting, and the silence was a distant worry in her mind. The warmth in her bed was tranquil and relaxing, a lot warmer than when she originally crawled into the wonderful covers, but why?
Groggily, Nina turned her head to look over her shoulder, and what she found nearly made her scream. Snoring slightly next to her, was Jackson, sleeping soundly next to her with his neon orange eyes shut peacefully as he spooned her while she had slept. He was cute, but at the same time, it was disturbing how he had snuck in to sleep with her, especially when she lacked undergarments of any kind. Nina watched him sleep for a while, taking in everything from the way his hair shrouded his eyes slightly, to the lack of a shirt, revealing his chiseled chest to the sliver of moonlight that snuck in from between the thick curtains of the window that were next to either side of the king-sized bed. He was pressing against her firmly, his breathing was deep and comfortable, his mind going through different mysterious thoughts as he laid there asleep next to her.
Don't freak out, he is your fiancé. He should be in your bed, cuddling you at night. Nina thought, trying to fight off the urge to squirm away and run away.
Thoughts of Daniel, and the scenario on the couch flashed through her mind like a flash flood while she laid there, trying not to cry from the fear of the current scene. Nina couldn't complain about Jackson though, his strong arm wasn't crushing her, he was keeping her warm on a winter night, and it wasn't like he was uncomfortable while he laid with her. Carefully, Nina rolled over and took a closer look at her fiancé's face and she noticed a pair of inky ears that poked out of his fluffy black hair with two small horns that barely shone in the ray of stray moonlight. She shouldn't be surprised though, he was the king of the vampire cats. So, instead of freaking out, Nina calmed herself down and cuddled up to his chest, drifting off to sleep once again, she was living in a new life of riches, she is marrying a king after all.
