The Vampire King's Pet

she was technically dead

"Stop it!" She giggled. Swatting his wandering hands from her body, she sat up from the bed and pinched his nose. "Kane, don't you have a guest in the study?"

She pretended to be annoyed as she glared at him. With a naked torso and a smirk on his lips, he hugged her waist.

"Let them wait. It's not like those mutts are as important as you." He drawled in a deep sexy voice.

She rolled her eyes and stared at him. Black hair spilled over his forehead, partially covering his electrifying blue eyes. Narrow nose, thin lips, and sharp jawline. His whole upper body was exposed as he lay on her legs, his lower body covered only by a thin white sheet.

Right now, he looked like a cat with a svelte body and a (sometimes) needy personality.

She pursed her lips before shoving him aside. "Come on, get up. Later, I'll..." She bent down and whispered beside his ear.

After those hushed words were said, Kane jumped up from the bed, standing in all his glory. His eyes filled with eagerness as he asked her. Radiating excitement and a rush of energy, he declared, "You promise, tonight you'll-"

She quickly cut him off to get him to start moving. "Yes, yes. Now go or I won't do as I've promised."

He looked like a child excited for the candy he was promised. He quickly dressed him and left after giving her a kiss on the forehead.

Sigh. Men... the only thing that can get them moving is-

Someone knocked on the door before opening it. Dane poked his head through the gap, smiling wickedly. He wiggled his eyebrows. "Queen, I saw King running happily towards the study. Knowing you, you must've baited him to get to meet that werewolf."

Dane Shields, one of Kane's most trusted men, was also one of her closest friends in Leguila, the Vampire Kingdom.

When Sarah moved to live with Kane, she received so many criticisms for being human. Despite being the vampire king Kane's Beloved therefore the vampire queen, some vampires still secretly bullied her whenever they saw her. Only Dane, his twin brother Dean, and a few others were genuinely nice to her.

But all the negative things changed when she started becoming stronger, stronger than all of them. She showed them she was no pushover. At the same time, she cherished her friends even more. Knowing that she had such a past but could still have friends was a blessing.

She chuckled, not answering. She stood up, letting the edge of the nightgown to fall to her calves. "Give me ten minutes. I'll freshen up a bit."

So, while she strode into the bathroom preparing to take a bath, Dane took a seat on one of the chairs inside the room. He laughed loudly, probably noticing her deflecting his statement. "I can guess a little what you baited him with."

The door to the bathroom swung shut and she turned on the shower. "Oh? Want to bet?"

Stepping under the flowing water, she could hear his response.

"With what?"

Going about her business, she thought of what should be at stake. She could already tell what Dane's answer would be so she smirked.

Really, men... she sighed. So simple-minded.

"How about wolf fur coat you own? The black one with a patch of white?" The pelt was an Alpha's that lost a battle from a long time ago. His opponent skinned him and took his pelt as a prize for victory. Things happened and Dane got a hold of it.

"What? Of all things you want that one? Damn, I'm starting to not want to bet."

Grabbing the soap, she taunted. "Chicken. Not confident enough to win?"
