"She lived to serve the choosen one. You're the reason she lived so long. Longer than all her predecessors.
Foe years , she've been angry with herself for not being there before the death of the three princes, at least she could have been able to syop their deaths.
That was the reason she stayed alive till you were fully mated; Only then did she die."
I looked at Ije as she narrated those things. My heart becoming more lighter as I heard stories I've not heard before of the priestess.
The girls that were sitting round me suddenly stood up and walked back a bit. Maintaining much distanced between us.
"Why are you suddenly standing? what's wrong?" I look at them in confusion.
Have they decided not to sit with me again? is that the reason they stood up from being close to me.
"Your..."
"Here you go Blacky," Reddy stopped in front of me. A fresh roasted meat in his hand " we salted it well,"he placed a large chunk of meat in my open palm.
I was really Impatient to receive the meat. The appetizing smell of the meat was making me salivate without control.
"Thank you," I took a bite of the soft meat "it's softer than yesterday's."
Yesterday meat was as strong as nothing I've ever eaten.
The flesh clogged to my teeth in embrace, and refused to release my poor teeth from its embrace.
"At least yesterday's own was big. The hardness might be due to how big the meat was," Reddy says in answer to the words I've spoken.
I look up at the fuming male, making sure not to say anything concerning the meat if yesterday. I didn't bother to tell him that no matter how big an animal is.
It can be soft if you know how well go roast the meat. All this I didn't tell him, not only because it will anger. As a vampire prince who grew up privileged, Living in castles all through his life, and drinking from anyone he seems to like,I don't think he have much time to learn how to catch, skin and roast an animal.
If anything, he only learnt how to walk and act like the king he will be someday.
"You blood sucker! you thought to leave me alone there," Blondie glared at Reddy before looking down at me with a smile "hope you like the meat? I prepares it love." He winked down at me.
Blondie's words made me realize something. Reddy took offence when I talked of how soft the meat was, because he wasn't the one who prepared this one.
He was just jealous I praised Blondie's,and criticized His.
"You're talking as if you were the only one who did the work," Reddy grumbles.
" You caught the meat alright Reddy, but I was the one who prepared it with much love for our mate." Blondie smugly said when he saw how angry Reddy is.
Instead of making it stop, he's fueling it on.
