Contractually Yours, Alpha by Giftemmy

Chapter Sixty Four

KAIDA POV

I still remember the times she would visit; she would cradle me in her arms and sing songs to me, but she wasn’t strong enough to overcome the bloodlust, her eyes would go completely black. She did try to fight it, I knew, but she never won the fight. I still remember the blinding pain I felt when her teeth sunk into my skin.
