The Vampire Kings Slave Mate

Chapter 18: Nikolai

“I’ve heard of it, but I thought it only effected Wolf Shifters. I’ve never heard of a vampire having a mate bond.” I replied intrigued on where Ambrose was going with this.

“It’s a rare occurrence for other species to have a mate bond, but while it is a rarity it does occur.” Ambrose said thoughtfully, his hand on his chin as if he was in deep thought.

“Has a human ever had a mate bond with a vampire?” I ask, feeling nervous about this connection between Mary and I.

“Never.” Ambrose replied solemnly. “There’s never been a documented occasion where a vampire was mated to human, other speices yes, but never a vampire.”

I grimaced at his response, “If that’s the case then why mention the mate bond at all? Mary is a human.”

“It’s the only logical explanation,” Ambrose said, standing up from his chair, pacing my office. “I’d like to study Mary.”

“No.” I replied sharper than intended. My beast was very protective over our blood slave.

“If you want answers it is the only way,” Ambrose said, crossing his arms and starring at me.

“Let’s just forget this conversation.” I replied, finding my annoyance with Ambrose increasing, “With so many factors pointing towards this connection being an impossibility, I’d like to just go about my life as normal.”

Ambrose looked at me like he wanted to say something more, but he just shook his head, and disappeared in front of me.

“Draq, Dru.” I mind linked the Dragon twins summoning them to me.

“Yes, your highness?“ They asked simultaneously once they appeared in front of me.

“You’ve met my blood slave,” I began not as a question but as a statement, “what does your dragon think of her?”

to the bedroom Nikolai had assigned me, Nevaeh’s handprint had already been entered into the scanner so she had no problem gaining access to the royal floor. My mouth drops open when I entered the room. It’s gorgeous. There was a beautiful four poster bed in the middle of the room, the woodwork

with a beautiful floral design printed onto it. Beside the bed was a nightstand, that matched the bed perfectly, on top of the nightstand was a small bedside lamp, perfect for laying in bed and curling up with a good book. There were beautiful paintings hung up on the wall portraying the beauty of nature. I continued to walk into the room venturing towards the closet, opening the French doors and peeking my head inside. The closet was bare as if awaiting to be filled full of garments. I walked from the closet to the other side of the room, where there was another set of French doors, opening the
