His breath was hot against her neck and it made her writhe in discomfort, but that discomfort was replaced by the sharpness of his fangs burying themselves into her vein. The shock of agonizing fire streaming into her being made her tear-filled eyes widen. You may now bite the bride. After being unable to afford to care for her ill mother, nineteen-year-old Ophelia is forced to take matters into her own hands and become the bride of a vampire. A Blood Bride.

Upon arriving at the manor, she expects to be nothing more than the vampire's meal and play toy, only to find that her presence is needed for far more than a simple blood bag. A vampiric war is on the horizon and Jon Cross is in need of a Warrior to fight alongside him. This Warrior, however, won't be a trained knight, rather, it will be his newly made bride, Ophelia Cross. [Blood Series] Highest Rank in Vampire: #4

Dark, riveting, passionate, love, betrayal, revenge, evil Warning!!!! This is a first draft. If you want the new edited version please check out "Royal Pain (Rewritten)" I will be continuing the story in that book from now on. Three identical vampire princes are searching for a human girl to one day rule their kingdom. Little did they know that Deva was not like the rest of the girls. She does everything to sabotage her chances but it isn't enough to shield her heart. Eventually the twisting and pulling force her guard down and she falls; she falls so deeply it hurts. Her vulnerability will lead her down a dark winding path she was never ready for. Vampires, a kingdom, a crown, love were just the tip of her iceberg. I promise this is a book that will not disappoint.

Never in my life has my mom ever said something so horrible, so disgusting. Never in my sixteen years of living, have I heard something so awful and cruel. When Mom said those five words, I felt like my world was ending, and that my life was over. "You're going to high school." Now, I know what you're thinking. What's so bad about high school? Well, nothing if you're a normal, responsible human. But, that's just the thing. I'm not human. I'm a vampire. And, I've watched a hundred human movies to know that high school is horrible. My life has officially ended.

“Now, now, enough with the pissing contest, boys.” Sage says, still giggling. Dominic shoots me a look that sends heat flares through my body and suddenly I stop laughing and bite my bottom lip. He casually strolls by Tobias. I hear Tobias growl and I can tell he’s trying to hold back his anger. Dominic doesn’t pay attention to him as he walks with purpose towards me. He takes my face in his large hands and bends down, kissing me. I pull away in shock that he’d do this in front of them. He looks at me frustrated. “What? You’re mine. I can do whatever I please.” He calmly states. “What do you mean by yours?” I ask, taken aback. Dominic looks at Sage and smirks, “You haven’t told her, have you?” “No, that’s what I was getting to before my husband…” She glares at Tobias, “…so rudely interrupted us.” “What’s he talking about, Sage?” I ask. “Well, you see…I know you had a dream about him yesterday morning. When you’re a witch in our bloodline, you have a dream of your ummmm…..soul mate. Ta-da! Meet your soul mate!” Sage yells while doing jazz hands. “Is this true?” I look at Dominic who is smiling. “Yes, that’s why you trust me. That’s why you were so willing to let me hmmm…” He licks his lips, “….taste you.”

My life changed completely once i turned twenty one. My friends and i went out to celebrate my special day but i didn't realise it would be the last time i would see them. I was kidnaped and treated like a slave by a very mean and abusive Vampire that's right a vampire i didn't they existed i thought stories of vampire were only told to scare us of a night time. But this Vampire wasn't just your ordinary Vampire he was the Vampire prince. My friends and family would never get to see me again. I’ve seen my family and friends from a distance when they held a funeral four months after i was kidnapped. They thought i was dead only because Casper took some of my blood and spread it through an abandoned cabin along with some hair and clothes. Six months after i was kidnapped Casper started to become nice he would treat me like a princess and tell me how beautiful i was. I began to fall in love with my kidnapper was it wrong of me to fall in love with him? Was it wrong to agree to marry him after everything he put me through? "What are you going to do Crystal?" I screamed at myself in the mirror.

Her family didn't want her, she had no friends, she was bullied. But who ever said she would rather be kidnapped than to live like she did? Desdemona was taken and then sold to two very powerful men who just so happen to be her mates. What happens when the lust is doubled? I doubt you would leave the bedroom much. !@#$%^&* ok so the start is rated PG-13 but later on in the story it will DEFINITELY turn R-rated but i will warn all readers.
