"You are not human, like us, are you?" The words left my mouth in whispers as my eyes glanced around eyeing the destruction caused by the two men. 

Two men who had effectively taken out Twenty guards. All heavily armed and trained. 

But now, not even one old get up. 

"What gave that away?" My companion, who I had feelings for, mocked. 

"Perhaps the strength we displayed caused her to see reality," in the blink of an eye, he was in front of me making me stumble back in fear. "Is that not true, Princess?" 

I looked to the man who was silent and ever watchful. "Why? Why were you not true?" I loved him, only him I let myself feel for. 

He glanced around and spotted Diwal, my trusted advisor. "No one is true in nature here," he pointed to my advisor, "Not even him." 

Unwanted tears came to my eyes as I glanced around me. I could die tonight and it would all be in their hands. 

"Don't worry, your highness, it's just the time for it to come to light." 

My advisor smiled and so did the other two men.

The bulky, muscular King to be. 

And a Princess.

The Princess's Dangerous Vampire Mate

I heard the words, whispers of them as I was in and out of consciousness, the entire time.

I felt hot, more than I ever had. It was like I was in the summer of Lethoris, the country with the hottest summer anyone could ever imagine and I was standing directly under it with no shade to protect me from it.

My hands cloud on my skin, ready to remove the piece of clothes that I was wearing. It was already sticking to my skin and I could feel it. It was not much, but a thin layer of clothes, but even that proved to be a restraint, I was not ready for.

Who was talking? Was someone around me?

I opened my eyes with great effort and found people hovering over me. They were more than one because of the member of cases that I heard constantly around me. How many, I did not know. But people were around me for sure.
