Chapter 4: The Six Sacrifices

**WARNING(Death, blood): MATURE CONTENT**

Well, everything wasn't exactly the way I want. Bishop asked me to complete the ritual of six sacrifices before tomorrow's dawn. The sacrifice includes, willing, vampire and werewolf one of each blood he has to drink. The werewolf and vampire can be preferred of any sex. The other four, out of which, one vampire, one werewolf and two humans, they can be either willing unwilling and any sex can be preferred except for humans should be a girl and a guy. though, I've prepared the sacrifices but... Anyways, my people won't be killed by sacrificing some blood to their ruler, but it can kill the normal humans.

My people arranged all the necessities required for the sacrifices and the Bishop started the pre blood moon ritual of six sacrifices. The seventh sacrifice is to be performed during the rise of blood moon. The first four inhumane sacrifices stood in a line. The bishop cut their viens and took the bowl full of blood, after which they were allowed to recover their wounds. Two drugged humans were bought and were sat on mats respectively and then the bishop took blood from their veins and were left on thr mat for me to devour on their still alive body. It was a part of the ritual where, I've to drink their blood from their neck vein and the goblet is being prepared into which the virgin blood will be added to make the goblet, ready as the king's beverage. I'll have to drink that goblet and the crown will get attached to my head and the throne's mine!

I completed the pre blood moon ritual and went to meet my human girlfriend to spend a day with her to make her believe my love and prove her words true to me about dying. I went to her condo, and suddenly a thought crossed my mind "brown red eyes?", "Weird, aren't you?", "But handsome?", "Is my broken heart that obvious? That people are taking pity?" "Hypnotizing!"," Mesmerizing!" I rolled my eyes and took away my handkerchief, well my gentleness, isn't something that these humans care! The lift stopped at the lobby and the last thought, of her mind stunned me, "He's a vampire!"

She wasn't surprised or afraid at all after knowing or realizing that am a vampire, instead she tried to call me. Well, that's not important now! Ding!

I reached her room and knocked! As always, she opened the door, but she was a bit tensed and was turning back time to time. "Well, isn't it a bit too early?" She said and invited me in.

Immediately, a human man's scent filled my nostril and my fangs itched, anger filled my eyes, betrayal! I placed the bouquet on the coffee table and settled on the sofa and looked at her, "why? I don't think it's too early for you!"

She gave me a confused look and looked at the time and said, "Well, it's just 5 am in the morning!"

"Why can't, I visit my darling at 5 am?" I raised my brow at her.

She was stunned, "I.. i didn't mean that, it.. it's just, y.. you surprised me and ahh! These flowers, so magical, I've seen it somewhe...!" She stuttered.

"Well, why, it seems to me that you're lying to me!" I asked twirling the stem of black orchid in my hand. My eyes were turning black and my fangs started growing.

"I.. a.. actual...!" She was looking here and there and babbling something when I rushed towards her with my inhumane speed and pinned her to the wall.

"Well, you weren't cheating on me! Were you?" I asked her with my demonic appearance on.

She was shivering now, seeing me, in this state and tried to break free of clutches,"Wh..who ah.. are, uhh!" She was stuttering the words, my palm around her neck wasn't too tight but my appearance started suffocating her, I guess. Her mind was a stream of whirlwind. I'm not able to recognize her inner voice, since during the ritual we have to sacrifice our lycan features of, smelling blood, read human mind and controlling their heart beat. So I can't read her mind. She blacked out and I carried her to her bed and waited for her to get up and explain. I need her body and blood, what if she's not a virgin? I'll kill her! But where am I going to get another virgin! Damn!

She opened her eyes slowly, the man's scent in her bedroom was strong. My fangs were itching but more important for me is to know if she's a virgin willing to die for me. Hypnosis plays no role in this ritual.

Seeing me she got up instantly and move to the corner of her bed, "da.. don't touch me!" She warned me.

I got up and poured a glass of water for her, but something caught my vision a condom wrapper, I picked it up and smelled the same man's scent on it. Well, she's definitely not a virgin, to die for me but a cheap slut who was lying to me and betrayers have no cost in my eyes. We vampires and specially people from my kingdom maintain peace with the mortal humans but betrayers! Huh!

*a glimpse of past*

"Your father definitely doesn't wants me and I don't have the courage nor money to feed you and take care of you, so I'm leaving you dear son! I love you but situation isn't in the favor of my love as a mother for you, just remember, I cherished your birth and my soul will be with you always!" The letter fell out of the hands of the little boy. He was gloomy, sad and angry. He already decided in his mind that no one loved him, his father betrayed his mother and his mother betrayed him. He ran to the jungle as fast as he can. He was bankrupt and he needed to pay off the debts of his drunken mother. He wanted to run away from his problems. The shadows in jungle showed their hideous character and took him under his clutches but he maintained the balance of evil and goodness with in himself. But this ritual and all the sins he had done before, he had his reasons.
