An Apple

Pov. Cahya

I stared down at the dark kingdom. I could see everything from here. I could see as people laughed and pushed each other. I could also see those demons. I was surprised they didn't have the castle at a reasonable and safe distance of such despicable and dangerous creatures.

Not that they can harm me, but it's better to be safe than sorry. I closed my eyes and gave into my senses. I needed to find Emily. That was one of the reasons as to why I made Erebus take our sword to her.

I closed my eyes given into my senses. I could feel my sword moving along the long halls of the castle. If Emily was dead by the time the sword reached her, my mate had no idea what type of hell would rain upon him.

I snapped my eyes open once I heard her panting and grunting in pain. 'Here' my mate said. I could only slightly hear her thanking him.

I sighed in relief knowing she was temporarily okay. Now the real question is how the hell I was going to get us out of here. I could just simply jump and leave but there was no way I was leaving Bloodstar, and Emily behind.

I could hear our mate walking back into the room and I just ignored him. He wasn't getting any of this until he apologized. He had no right to bring us here against our will, I was going to find a way to convince Asteria, but he almost killed her.

"Asteria," he whispered. I kept ignoring him. "Asteria?" he questioned when I didn't answer him.

I turned around and gave him the deathliest stare, daring him to speak again. I snapped our body back so we would be staring out the window again.

"You will not treat me like that," he growled, stepping closer to me.

When I didn't acknowledge him again, he grabbed my waist and snapped me back around and pulled me closer. Close enough that we were breathing the same air, and I had no choice but to stare into his beautiful eyes.

"When I talk to you, you answer, is that clear?" he asked, his voice lowering making my knees weak.

"I'm sorry to disappoint but, we can do whatever we want," I whispered and bit his lip pulling it until I felt a drip of blood on my tongue. I chuckled at his surprised face and when his arms loosened and followed my licking the blood off his lip.

I stepped away from his arms and snapped my body back to the window.

I didn't hear him for a few seconds until he lifted me off my feet by surprise and pinned me down in the bed. He leaned down to whisper in my ear.

"I don't like games baby," he bit my earlobe and pulled making me let out a low moan.

"But I love them," I answered. He leaned in to kiss me, but I turned our head. "You're not getting any of us until, you let us leave and apologize... I'm sorry baby," I said sarcastically surprising him my kicking him across the room.

I kept laughing and went back to the balcony to stare down closing the doors behind me this time. I pulled the hoodie over our head and just jumped, I betted I had a better chance at escaping like this. But I knew it was stupid, he would find us before we could get that far.

I landed in some bushes that were pricking me everywhere, not painfully but uncomfortably. I kicked that branches out of the way in frustration and standing up. I'm so stupid, acting like a fucking child. I forgot we are not as strong and agile down here.

I was surprised and that no one waws staring as came out the bushes with grunts and kicking everything in front of me. Fucking bush.

I could see the people walking towards the center of the town and I realized that's why they were ignoring me. I had to admit it was beautiful and so were the demons. I supposed they were attractive because that allowed them to commit sins easier.

I could say that I was jealous of how beautiful they were and my mate seeing them every day, but I wasn't. Let's be honest Asteria and I are a thousand times sexier and beautiful.

I try to blend in with them, but I don't think it was working because after a while I started feeling everyone's stares on me. I said fuck it and pushed the hoodie off my hair, that would surely get me attention. I love attention, I love when people stare at me and just want me but can't. I know I'm attention seeker, but I don't care.

I ruffled my hair letting them smell my scent, and I smirked when they hissed at me. I knew they could smell, my mate's scent, my linage blood, and some just gave jealous stares as my body seemed to pull all the light.

I knew my mate would come any second and I wasn't done having fun yet. I walked towards the fruit stands and grabbed an apple from one of them. I winked at the seller and sat in the table that was positioned in front of him. Crossing my legs, I leaned over so we were almost breathing the same air.

"Thank you for the apple," I whispered sluttery, as I felt my mate finally approaching. The guy gulped, obviously not being able to handle all our sexiness. I leaned back taking a bite of the apple, feeling the juice sliding down my chin and neck.

"Asteria!" My mate screamed behind me, not budging me at all. I could hear some of them gasp. I found it funny that he still didn't realize that it was me and not Asteria.

"You know, Hunny," I said sarcastically. "I'm starting to question if we are really mates," I whispered checking out the guy in front of me not really finding him attractive at all but wanting to infuriate my mate.

He marched towards me, while I just kept eating the apple. He punched the guy and then moved on to throw me over his shoulder. I chuckled and just kept eating the apple.

"Thank you!" I screamed to the poor guy.

I winced when I felt my mate spank my ass. I just kept waving and winking to some of the demons who stared in jealousy.
