"You look just like her, my mother"
I drag him out of the room. "What on earth are you talking about?" I ask crossing my arms. "You wanted answers" He shrugs. "I need more than that, I'm not in the mood for your games" He takes my hand in his just like old times "Well the girl in there is my decendant"
What now? "That makes no sense, She smells human. If you managed to beat the odds and impregnate another, then there would be nothing human about it. You were never changed. You were born this way, so was your mother and your grandmother."
That fucking grin ....
"Exactly my love, Unless I got a human pregnant" I take my hand out of his remembering my vow to not let him touch me. "I think your long rest has muddled your mind, that's impossible. We can only have children under an alignment with our own kind and even then it's rare unless you carry the Mark of the Queen"
He turns to walk away, oh no you don't. I grab his arm "On one of my many leaves. I conducted an experiment, you know my love of them. I decided to live as a human. Fully emerge myself in their ways. It's rather tedious. Working, paying taxes. Oh and the smell, I nearly lost my appetite"
I roll my eyes "Get to the point" He starts walking and I follow "Well to get the full experience, I acquired a wife. Her name was Anna, she looked a little like you, when you were human" My hand strikes his face with such force he stumbles. "Hahaha my love, always the jealous one. She did not compare to you or your beauty" He snakes his arms around my waist and I push him away.
"Well Anna ended up with child, I hazed her to find out if the child was mine and to my surprise, she was truthful. Let's be honest. Why would your eyes wander to another, when I'm your husband. She had my son but died in childbirth. Despite your objections to having my child. I am a good father. I raised Michael on my own, well he had a governess. Did I mention my wife was a countess?"
A snarl escapes my lip "I became Count Thorne. Isn't that hilarious. I stayed with Michael throughout his life. He lived to have a family of his own and the same thing happened to his wife. She died in childbirth. I didn't get to see the next generation, thanks to you" I am stunned in place by his revelation.
"Why should I believe you?" He chuckles "Why would I lie? Does this not answer your questions. All the strange occurrences?" I have to sit down this is too much "No, not really other than why she tastes disgusting" His eyes flash with anger "You fed from my family? Unbelievable. You truly are a stupid girl"
I've had enough. I flick my wrist and he flys through the air. Out of my presence. However, he has regained his strength and speed and is beside me again, in the blink of an eye. Seething he grabs my hair and plunges his fangs into my neck from behind. His other hand slides down my trousers and his fingers slip inside me.
I bite my lip, to stifle the moan. I don't want to give him the satisfaction. He breaks away from the bite. The placement of his palm is grinding against my bundle of nerves, as his fingers thrust inside makes me. I cum hard.
"Naughty girl, I've been pretty lenient with you so far. Do you need to be reminded of your place? You are mine and mine alone. That's no way to welcome your master back, after all of this time" Those words were laced with a command, I guess I will be practicing celibacy for the foreseeable.
I throw my elbow back into his ribcage. "I told you, to never to touch me again" The back of his hand strikes my face. I stumble for a moment but leap in the air. On the descent, my fist connects with his right cheekbone. His head moves down with the impact and I drive my knee up into to the left side of his face, in one quick motion.
He lands on his back and I continue laying a series of punches to his face. He flips me upwards and we roll down the hall until we gain our footing. His leg connects to my stomach and my back breaks through the bannister. Unlucky for him my vines have been holding onto him and he rolls down the stairs with me.
We land on the floor under the chandelier. We stay that way, looking up at the ceiling and catching our breaths. I can't help but laugh. Today has gone a lot better than I thought it would.
"Aww my sweet rose, are you mad you can't continue to have your affairs? We stand up dusting ourselves off "Says the man who married another?" He kisses my hand "Well this has been fun but I must go talk with my great, great, great.... That's a lot of math. For the sake of convenience, My granddaughter."
He heads back to Arlo's room. "No, she has no idea about us and I intend to keep it that way. I need answers!" He's laughing again "Isn't it obvious? The alignment is bringing the truth to light. You my love, are a usurper. The rightful heir is within our walls" I don't think so. "Not possible, she is human" He turns back to look at me.
"Not for long"
