Chapter 19: Nikolai

I’ve been waiting on the foyer for what feels like ten minutes now and I can feel my patience warring then. I am not use to anyone making me wait. Just as I feel I am about to explode with anger, I hear the pitter patter of small feet, but I am not greeted with Mary’s scent, instead I am overwhelmed with the smell of roses after the first spring rain shower.

“King Nikolai,” greets Kade’s blood slave, bowing at the wait,”

I tried to race through my brain to recall her name. Nevaeh, that’s it. That’s what Mary and Kade had called her.

“Nevaeh,” I responded, trying to hold my temper at bay, “What is the meaning of this, where is Mary?”

Nevaeh starts to shift from one foot to the other, as she picks at her hand nervously, “Umm.. Miss Mary, has told me to inform his highness…”

“Hurry out with it girl.” I growled, my patience on it’s last straw.

“Miss Mary has decided that she is not going.” Nevaeh rattled out nervously.

“Not going!” I growled, my aura swirling around, “WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS!”

“I apologize for giving you such bad news your grace,” Nevaeh said bowing once more, baring her neck to me in submission, “Mary seems to think a trip to the village would put her in immediate danger.”

I willed myself to calm down, I needed to get to the bottom of this, and only one person would have the entire answer to my question. I took three big breaths, a human trait I had learned over the years of studying them, before attempting to speak with Nevaeh again.

“Nevaeh, take one of the guards down to the village with you, and please get a weeks worth of casual wear and formal wear for Mary, she is a size 8.”

“Ye...yes your majesty,” Nevaeh stammered, slowly turning and walking away.

I realized I had terrified the poor girl, and that wasn’t my intention. I wanted the blood slaves to have a healthy amount of fear towards me, but I also wanted them to trust me with their well being. “And Nevaeh,” I called, making the girl come to a halt before she slowly turned around.

“Yes, your majesty.” She asked her voice almost a whisper.

“Get yourself something nice to, Kade likes red.” I respond with a wicked smile on my face.

that feeling quickly left when I felt a presence in the bed beside me. Had Nevaeh decided to come back and sneak a nap in after advising Nikolai I wouldn’t be meeting with him. I slowly turned towards the presence, not wanting to alert whoever it was that I was awake. I felt an arm firmly grip my waist as I turned and felt a sparkle of tingles run over my body.
