His Dark Obsession by Moonlight Muse

Chapter 88

Poison
ZEDKIEL.

I don’t know what he’s hidden from me and a part of me doesn’t want to believe that there even is anything. He should have told me everything when he returned, to know he has been keeping something from me… someone who I thought has no secrets from me.

I trust Kash with my life and more, from him and his half-brothers who are all of beta blood, if I were to take the throne Kash would have always been my choice for beta… I trusted him and I hope I still can.

He’s standing there, a deep frown on his face.

“What are you not telling me?” I ask. My voice is deadly calm, my eyes burning red as I watch him carefully, my aura surging around me as it takes everything not to simply lash out and attack him.

“I… It’s not what you’re thinking and to be honest you can’t trust them, Zed.” He answers me quietly.

“I’m not asking you to give me your advice. I’m telling you to fill me in on what you have kept from me. My patience is depleting fast, Kash. Answer me now!” I snarl venomously.

He closes his eyes, and I can tell he’s agitated, as he brushes his hair off his face.

“Alright, hear me out. Before you jump to conclusions, you need to listen to everything I say.” He counters, and that is enough to tell me I won’t like whatever he’s going to come out with. “Yeah? Now? You could have said that when you returned!” I thunder.

“Zed… calm down.” Evangeline whispers, rubbing my shoulder and neck. Her touch is calming.

“I know but I also know how irrational you are. I was thinking of a way to deal with things without it coming to this.”

“Coming to what, exactly?” I ask icily.

“Look… I was captured by none other than the Vampire Princess Ziahra…”

Princess?

I thought I was the only heir… I glance at Evangeline and she’s frowning too.

“A princess?” Evangeline asks.

“That’s what she said…” Kash looks uneasy and I c*ck a brow.

“Keep talking. Seems like there’s more.” I reply coldly.

“I just…” He looks away and I observe him. “Is there something about this woman that you want to share?”

“She… She claims that you are one of them.”

“I’m a hybrid. This was something you should have told me.”

“Yeah, I know I just…” He sighs, reaching for the bottom of his shirt. He winces before he pulls his shirt off, and I c*ck my brow until my eyes fall on his shoulder. There’s no blood or

injury, but the entire shoulder has a black disgusting patch that seems to be latched onto his skin, the surrounding skin looks dead, and I can see the angry veins spreading from the patch, slowly creeping around his neck.

“You were bitten.” Evangeline gasps as she jumps up from her seat. “I saw you’ve been rubbing your shoulder. Why didn’t you say anything?”

She’s by his side, worry clear on her face and I don’t know how to react knowing he’s poisoned … how was he poisoned? Why isn’t he healing?

“How the f*ck did that happen?” I ask, “Why haven’t you gotten it checked?”
