Carlisle and Esme's Imprint

Chapter 85

-Next Day-

I smiled at Muffin as we sat on his throne. 

The room was dimly lit. I sat on Muffin's lap as we read a scroll together. It was extremely old and it was in greek.

Soon I started to feel funny. Like something was going to happen.

The doors bursted open to reveal a rugged looking man being dragged in by Felix and Demetri. The guards grew alert and tensed. Muffin wrapped one of his arms around my waist protectively, while he leaned on the other appearing to be bored and I scooted back into his chest, my legs criss crossed.

"Ahh who is this now" Aro got up from his throne.

I tuned out the talking and continued reading the scroll.

I peeked over the scroll , me and the man made eye contact and I froze for a quick second. The mark on my hand began to glow red and I hid it between my thighs and turned my attention back to the scroll.

Muffin squeezed my side. I looked up at him and he gave me a knowing look.

"He killed the two guards that were guarding the underground gate" Felix said.

"Oh no this isn't acceptable at all" Aro stated. "What is your name?" He asked him.

I rolled up the scroll and gave it to the nearest vampire standing near us.

"My name is Henry" He spoke, his voice was deep and hoarse.

"What is your purpose for breaking into our castle?" Aro asked.

Suddenly the vampire's eyes cut towards me and I jumped.

"I caught this intoxicating scent" He spoke and his mouth turned up into a smirk. Muffin's head snapped towards the man and his eyes hardened. The guards retaliated quick by standing beside us.

Unfortunately the man managed to get out of the strong vampire's hold and came barreling towards me and Muffin. I looked the man in the eyes and he fell straight to the ground.

"Kill him" Muffin snarled and covered my eyes. I whined. I cringed at the sound of them ripping him apart. Then I smelled smoke. I was picked up by Muffin and we left the throne room.

I rested my cheek against his. "My scent isn't intoxicating" I said.

"Unfortunately, Mia dolce Ragazza , it's extremely intoxicating" He stated.

"What do I smell like" I asked.

"Strawberries with a hint of roses" He replied.
