"Mr. Sharpe is an honorable man, which is rare these days. As your kind master, I allow you to be friends with him but sharing my blood is not allowed."
My blood? The words echoed in Sienna's mind, and she looked at the duke with disdain. He was claiming her blood as his, and although she had agreed to give him her blood, it didn't mean she had grown comfortable with it.
"You don't agree?" He took a step closer to her and she quickly replied through gritted teeth,
"Of course I remember our agreement, Master Lemiel. My blood is all yours in exchange for my safety."
"How bright of you."
Before she could ask if she should prepare his bath, someone knocked on the door.
Sienna stepped aside as the door opened and saw that it was the duke's adviser, Theron Kline.
