My face turned pale at his words. Did I hear correctly? He wanted to have my blood?
I don't expect less from a demon. This was bound to happen. Blood was their meal, but I never thought this shameless king could be so bold to ask for my blood this soon even if he was fully aware I wasn't his.
"I... I'll take another option my lord." I said and the smile on his lips broadened causing a wrinkle on his eyes, but his gaze was still so cold. Right now I've turned weary of anyone that smiled a lot
"What other option?" He asked and I frowned.
"That, surely isn't the only way my lord. I'm sure you have other options."
"I... I'm not comfortable with giving out my blood." I stuttered even if that's the last thing I wanted. Hannah always said to be bold when rejecting a demon lest they work on your fear and consume you whole.
I didn't always listen to her words cause I never thought I would be married to a demon.
