《Loved By A Vampire King》Chapter 7 - Wedding Night (2)
Advertisement
The more she struggled, the more intensely he pressed his lips over hers. Esme felt like her entire body became frozen as a chilling sensation crawled down through her spine. She solemnly believed that she loathed this person.
She loathed him a lot as he was that evil person who had detached her from her beloved family, who had kidnapped her from her world and forcefully coerced her to marry him!
She abhorred him from the core of her heart!
But why is my heart sprinting at this moment?
Perhaps I never felt any man's touch before.
But whenever his cruel sharp fangs caressed against her swollen lips, she felt like a hidden desire was streaming in her psyche. No matter how much her brain warned her to halt with countless logic, subconsciously she yearned for offering herself to this vicious man in another word an animal.
Finally, her psyche came back to the sense when she could feel that his freezing hands were arising up sneaking beneath her clothes.
She froze!!
Gathering up all the vigor she had, she stroked a hard kick on his waist. Aaron halted his action for a moment before realizing his misdeed towards her.
Esme became speechless!!
She couldn't move him a little away from her rather she felt hurt on her knee.
Very gently, Aaron moved off his hands from her clothes and eased his grip from her head. Esme instantly attempted to escape away from him but he still kept his long arms caged around her. His one hand was placed on the wall behind her while the other one remained motionless to the spot close to her waist.
Esme heaved her gaze while blinking awkwardly. Her heart began racing again when she noticed his lascivious gaze falling over her blushed face.
At that moment, no smile or expression was appearing on that handsome face. Then he casually said with a smirk,

" So you are really not afraid of me."
Esme responded while aiming to turn left,
" I said that I'm not.."
Thud!!
Her path was again barricaded by his left hand loudly banging on the wall. She felt like the entire room was vibrated by that strong banging.
Exactly how much strength he had!
She gulped in dismay thus turned around and stayed obediently inside his hand's enclosure.
Aaron uttered still sneering,
" I'm not finished with you.
Why are you escaping?
Or..... "
Esme blinked promptly without heaving her gaze as she could sense him leaning towards her face more closely.
Oh no!! Not again!
Her body curled up just like a shrimp as she wished for hiding herself inside this wall.
The more she feared, the more he felt amused by her expression.
In the midway, he paused and whispered in a soft voice,
" You don't want to serve your husband on your wedding night. "
Esme was startled by his shameless demeanor. Jerking away from his gaze, she bent down to escape away from his cage before replying,
" I have no interest in you.. Aaahh.. "
Her voice halted as she screamed in sudden pain. When she strived to get away hastily, a vase of glass dropped down from the corner table by the banging of her hand and directly landed on her feet.
It was shattered into thousands of pieces. But it was too late to move her body as unfortunately, the pieces went inside her feet and instantly a flow of blood began dripping from her feet.
Aaron froze in his spot as he instantly kneeled near her feet before scolding in a harsh voice,
" Look at you, clumsy girl.
How.. How do you walk!!
Useless!! "
Esme couldn't heed his words clearly as she tightly gritted her teeth in anguish. Aaron frowned hard glancing at her dripped blood as his throat dried in excessive thirst.

Without asking for her consent, he scooped her up in his arms and dashed towards the bed with a speed of light. Even Esme couldn't get enough time to struggle with him as it was too fast.
He softly settled her down on the bed and sat down by her side caressing her wounded feet carefully.
He noticed some minor scars on her feet but these scars were too severe thus caused her abrupt bleeding.
He silently admonished himself when he felt the burning desire of drinking that blood. He was holding his breath to resist the luscious scent of her blood and strode towards a corner of the room.
Esme was dumbfounded while contemplating him!
The concern which was written all over his face at this time couldn't possibly suppress as she felt more and more wordless after noticing that intense concern..
When the scene of emotion occurred inside the room, some gossiping ears were struggling to figure out the situation happening inside.
The maids were already trembling in dismay of getting caught but they were bounded to obey their master's order. In the end, they ended up staying here until they became confirmed about the entire situation.
Esme noticed him grabbing some cotton and a bottle of liquid then came back to her in a rush.
He took her feet on his lap and began blowing over it. The cold breath really soothed her scar a lot as she felt less distress.
All that time, she remained reserved and closely observed his action. Just then her eyes fell on his throat hence eventually, she found out that he was gulping his saliva frequently while wiping the bloodstains from her feet.
Frowning in thought, she could reckon the reason behind his action and felt uneasy all of a sudden.
He was the so-called mighty vampire king who could turn down the world just with a simple signal but now he was resisting his desire just because of her.
Indeed he was holding back everything just because of her. Whenever his gaze came across with her painful expression, his all desire vanished in the air as he yearned to heal her wound as soon as possible.
Isn't everything going against his own rule?
When he began caressing her feet to apply the medicine, Esme hastily made an effort to put her feet back and mumbled in a low voice,
" Don't.. don't touch my feet..
I.. I.. can do it.. I.. "
She hung back her voice when noticed him glaring at her. She really felt remorseful while watching him serving her like a servant.
Ignoring his threatening gaze, she again attempted to move her feet back but in the next moment, she screamed in fierce pain and dismay.
Aaron forcefully pulled down her injured leg before uttering in a hoarse voice,
" Be good.
Does it feel nasty to be touched by me?
Am I not treating your wound well?
Or do I seem like sucking your blood?
If you move a little more, you will have to bear the consequences, remember that. "
Esme opened her mouth but didn't dare to speak anymore after hearing his dire words.
Indeed he was resisting himself too difficultly!
" Ahh.. ", she grunted in pain as the chilly liquid touched her fresh wound.
On the outside, the maids sharpened their ears instantly when they heard that weeping noise.
Noticing her eyes became closed in pain, Aaron softened his tone,
" Little girl, hold on for a moment.
It will hurt a little. "
This time, the maids began blushing profusely!

In Aralt ‘Wolf” syr Tremayne’s world, skyships sail above tidal extremes, crystal swords are Tuned, and the soul-touched inspire both awe and fear. The latter doesn’t phase him, he carries a Tuned blade, and as for the ships…Aralt prefers to keep his feet on solid ground. Having finally laid to rest the ghosts of his past, he is unprepared when the grave gives one of them back. To his shame, it isn’t the one he wants. Lian Kynsei’s arrival upends Aralt’s life, but there is nothing he can do about it. Oath-bound to Lian, the last of a priestly clan, he is now defender of the scion of a faith he no longer shares. But the boy Aralt once knew is gone. In his place is a reckless, traumatized teen who can light the sky on fire. The more they get reacquainted, the less Aralt likes him—and the feeling is mutual. As revenge against a common enemy boils in his blood, Aralt struggles to do his oath-sworn duty and secure sanctuary for the heir-apparent to a mystical dynasty. But instead of safety, every step brings them closer to danger: sky pirates, cannibals, and a relentless soulless scourge unleashed by their enemy are all intent on killing Lian—or worse. Death, Aralt realizes, might be the greater mercy. ---------------------------------------------------------- What to Expect: Character-driven Plot Novel Pacing (which I accept isn't typical for serials) Elaborate Worldbuilding (you gotta pay attention) Soul-bonded Swords Sentient Wolves Longish Chapters What Not to Expect: Litrpg (sorry!) Harem (not sorry!) Magic System Short Chapters Dancing Bears (at least so far) Seriously, this is a second-world low fantasy/science-fantasy featuring a strong, but flawed male protagonist, a cheeky teenage boy that’s driving him crazy, a wee bit o’ Scots flavor, and a whole lot of culture clashing. I’m preparing to relaunch this story on Kindle once the second and third books are ready and I’d love some feedback as I move through those revisions. I'm serious about the feedback. All comments are welcome. I'll name a characters after you. And kill them, if you want. :) Oh, did I mention soulless assassins and cannibals? Yeah, Aralt’s day is not getting any better. cover image by brosedesignz
