(Northern Region- Outskirts Of New Atlantic City)
(Castle Eden – Palace Library)
There was a brief moment of silence as Camilla's words of passion echoed through the room.
Camilla herself seemed to be shocked by her bold declaration but now the cat was basically out of the bag.
She did not regret that she had finally managed to admit her true feelings towards Mary.
"I am not going to ask for your answer now... because I myself do not know what exactly I feel towards you..." Camilla softly whispered as her hand stroked the side of Mary's cheek.
"But just know... you are mine. Whether as a servant or a lover... I will make you mine. Do I make myself clear?"
"Yes mistress," Mary muttered breathlessly as she felt her heart skip a beat. Being so close to Camilla's gorgeous face was making her blush bright red.
She got lost in those lovely crimson eyes, sharp angular facial features, cute button nose and those... plump inviting lips.
Camilla pulled Mary closer and her hands slowly snaked around her body until they formed a tight embrace.
She kissed Mary once more with a hunger and passion that made the young woman feel as though she was about to melt.
Drowning in a sea of pleasure...
Minutes passed or perhaps it was hours. Time lost all meaning as Mary lost herself in Camilla's taste and her warm touch.
She could feel Camilla's body pressing and rubbing against her own and it was making her lower half slowly heat up.
Finally, the beautiful female vampire broke off the kiss and then took a few steps back.
She awkwardly turned around and pretended to look at a few books in the distance.
"So... my pet... please tell me what exactly happened last night," Camilla calmly spoke while hiding her racing heart.
She changed the subject because she was worried that if she continued then she would not be able to resist stripping off Mary's clothes and taking her right there in the library.
Camilla knew that she had the strength to force Mary to respond to her passionate desires but... that very thought was repulsive.
She wanted her human to want it.
She wanted her human to beg her for it.
A sadistic smile briefly surfaced on the female vampire's face before it vanished just as quickly as it had appeared.
Meanwhile Mary nervously curled her fingers into a tight fist as she tried to gather her thoughts to respond to her mistress' question.
She was initially tempted to conceal some information from Camilla but now... she wanted to tell the beautiful female vampire everything she knew.
God... I am such a pushover.
One kiss... well several kisses... and you start to lose your damn mind.
Mary took in a deep breath and drove those distracting thoughts from her mind. She opened her mouth and finally replied to Camilla's question,
"I was walking through the castle when a strange vampire burst through a window... he immediately attacked me, but I managed to fight him off and kill him."
"I was able to briefly interrogate him before he died, and he revealed that someone... one of the princes had sent him here as an assassin."
"Do you know how he was able to bypass all my wards and protection spells?" Camilla asked curiously as she turned to face her human servant.
"Yes... he had a rune carved on his body... he claimed that it was an anti-magic rune that allowed him to be unaffected by your spells."
Camilla's brows instantly furrowed as she heard that shocking detail.
Anti-magic?
Impossible... all of those techniques were long buried in the sands of time.
Besides... she was the only vampire who even bothered or was able to learn the ancient art of blood magic so who would invest all their time and effort to counter her?
Especially considering that unlike the other princes... she had no interest in raising her reputation or grabbing more territory.
Damn it! Which one of those bastards wanted her out of the picture?
"Also... he offered for me to work together with him... I think his master has ties to the Hunter Association," Mary softly whispered.
"That's not a surprise... the relationship between your kind and mine is quite... complex," Camilla muttered with a strange emotion in her voice.
"Individual humans and individual vampires may not see each other as enemies all the time but rather as allies when the situation demands it."
"Besides there are some vampires who are oddly nostalgic... about their time as humans before they were changed."
The female vampire's voice trailed off and a strange atmosphere filled the library.
Camilla let out a light sigh and then walked over to her table where several books were stacked up.
"There will be no training today," Camilla firmly ordered as she sat down on a chair and began to flip through the nearest book.
"Take some time to recover from your fight and... I want you to think about what kind of relationship that you want with me."
There was a hint of vulnerability in Camilla's cold tone that Mary was not sure how she detected.
The female vampire's face was completely expressionless, but her jaw was clenched ever so slightly.
It was a subtle sign of the nervousness that she felt.
Mary nodded politely at her mistress and then walked out of the library with more questions that answers in her mind.
Camilla was in love with her?
Well maybe love was a strong word.
The young woman wandered through the castle and eventually reached a large balcony that led directly outside.
She opened the glass door and stepped onto the cold tiles. There was a chair in the corner of the balcony with soft plump cushions that looked quite inviting.
Mary sat down on the chair and then stared upwards at the night sky.
A cold breeze brushed against her cheek as she wrapped her arms around her body for warmth.
Love? No Camilla said that she wasn't sure how she felt...
But... how did she feel about the female vampire?
Camilla was definitely attractive but... could she really be in a relationship with a bloodthirsty fiend?
And what about her plan to escape?
Mary had the sneaking suspicion that if she did become Camilla's lover then leaving the castle may become an impossible task.
No...what the hell was she thinking?
Yes, she had to admit that Camilla's kisses felt good, but she was not a beast who was only driven by carnal desires!
She needed to look at this logically.
ραпdα Йᴏνê|(сòm) Maybe this was the perfect opportunity in disguise. All she needed to do was pretend to fall in love with her vampire captor and then when her guard was finally let down...
She would escape!
Mary pumped her fist into the sky as her lips gently curved upwards.
It was the perfect plan, and it would minimise the risk that Camilla would kill her before she got stronger.
Now all she had to do was play the part of a smitten lover and it would be easy.
Play a part...
Yes... she would just be acting.
Mary's face flushed as she recalled how soft Camilla's voluptuous breasts felt when they were pressed up against her body.
By the gods... how she wished that she could bury her face in those plump mountains...
No! NO!
She was just acting.
She didn't actually want that.
Right?
Mary let out a small groan as she placed her hand against her forehead. Hopefully she would be able to escape before she caught any real feelings for her vampire captor.
