Chapter 97

CAMILLA’S P.O.V

“I mean no harm,” I called out but the vampire made no move to step out. “I just want to see your king.”

He laughed maniacally. “Not many people live to see that request. Our king does not like visitors neither does he tolerate them.” The guards tightened their circle around me.

“My name is Camilla and I am the Queen of the wolves. I believe he should want to see me. I would not come here unless it was important.”

There was silence for a minute and I honestly thought he wasn’t going to respond until he spoke. “I know who you are. He has been expecting you but we didn’t know you would come with guards of your own.”

“Did you expect me to walk into unknown territory unprotected?”

He finally stepped out of the woods. His hair was cropped short and close to his head. He looked like a normal person except for the unusual paleness of his skin. It was patchy and white like snow. I figured it was expected considering they were practically dead and lived in the cold of the mountains. He smiled and I saw a hint of his fangs.

Although I had never seen him, I recognized him from his eyes alone. “You were the one watching me in the woods, weren’t you?”

He smiled. “Maybe. Come, Camilla, the king awaits.”

The guards with me hesitated but I figured that we were already here and if he wanted to hurt me then he would have done so already. He walked ahead of us unbothered about his bare feet touching the rough plain. I figured not much bothered the undead. We got to the mouth of a cave and the guards in front of me stopped.

“Your majesty,” one of them began. “Are you sure this is a good idea? We don’t know if there is an army in there. We are walking in blind.”

“I can assure you that there is no army,” the vampire said from in front of me. We turned to him in confusion and he tapped his ears. “We have better hearing than you guys. To answer your question, there is no army. We don’t need one. I can assure you that there are less than five people, including me.”

The guards still didn’t look convinced so I knew I would have to make the first move. I slowly got off my horse and glanced up at the guards to assure them that it was fine. They dismounted too and we allowed the vampire lead us into the cave. It was pitch black and it took longer than usual for me to get adjusted to the light. The distinct smell of blood filled the air and unease threatened to choke me. “Forgive the smell,” he said off handedly. “We do have to feed sooner or later. I’m sure you understand.”

If the vampire realized that we were uncomfortable, he didn’t let on.copy right hot novel pub
