[Completed] Riley Hayes | A Vampire Novel - Book I

Chapter 7 - meeting the family

Here I was, walking behind a Lord while dressed in his clothes and a collar decorating my neck. It embarrassed me deep to my core.

The burning sensation of my behind was a constant reminder of the humiliation he put me through.

I had been tortured in many ways but not like this, it wasn't that painful as the ache of whipping lashes but the mental strain of being spanked like a child was a new feeling for me. He mentioned I was wet for him, was I? It can't possibly be true, never for a disgusting leech. Not even for one as handsome as him.

They torture my kind, force my kind to serve them in all ways you can think of and when we matter no more we are disposed of. It's sad. But also infuriating.

I hated the power this man in front of me has, not only his status but the ability he possesses. I can't speak no matter what I try. And I'm just supposed to follow him? To worship him as these slaves do?

No fucking way.

"Your anger is in the air, bunny." I snapped out of my thoughts and looked at Leuca, our eyes met which made him raise his eyebrows again. His punishments won't subdue me, never.

I'm not a bunny!

I can't speak but I can stare the hell out of him. He simply shook his head and stopped in front of two double red doors. The sides were decorated with golden swirls, the knobs too were golden.

Can't be real gold, can it? If so how filthy rich is this man? He opened the doors and it revealed a spacious room with a large table in the middle of it and at least twenty seats we're available. He doesn't have that many family members I hope?

He waltzed right to the spot at the head of the table and sat down in the chair. I looked around and wanted to reach for a chair when Leuca snapped his fingers at me. Was I a dog? Fuck no.

I raised my eyebrows at him if I could speak he would've gotten a protest from me. So all I did was shrug my shoulders. "Pets sit on the ground next to their master." He said while pointing to the spot on his right side.

I shook my head and raised my middle finger at him, was that no clear enough for him? "Or they sit on their master's lap, choose now or I'll force one on you." He didn't speak with amusement but it was clear he would force one upon me. Then I'd rather sit on the ground.

I walked around him and slowly descended on my knees with a silent sigh. As I settled on my knees which was very uncomfortable on this hard marble floor I felt a hand pet the top of my head. Instinctively I instantly swapped his hand away and glared at Leuca.

Do not pet me.

My eyes spoke enough for me and my blunt response made him chuckle and do it again. "Brother!" A female voice excitedly called out.

"Good evening Abby..." Leuce said with a genuine smile, a smile with those disgusting fangs showing.

A young woman sat down on his right side, she resembled Leuca in many ways. Also black hair and blue eyes. This woman 'Abby' had wavy hair just past her shoulders and wore a black dress just above her knees. She also wore the highest high heels I've ever seen before.

I tried leaning back slightly so my knees wouldn't hurt so much but the moment my ass touched the back of my feet I was reminded of the damned spanking. Fuck, it burns.

"And who is this?" She looked at me and even came a bit closer, her blue eyes were urging me to look away and show respect. Well, she has the wrong human in front of her.

Though my head was yanked to the side by Leuca's hand, again forcing me to abide by one of his rules. It made Abby widen her eyes, "she's... Interesting." She said with a smirk.
