"You're really going to play so intimately with your human pet while sitting at the dinner table?"
An unfamiliar voice came from the other side of the table. When Nazmi turned to look, she frowned. It was another beautiful man, most definitely a royal vampire given the golden hue of his eyes… but, as with Samir, his aura was hostile and dangerous.
He had skin that was several shades lighter than Samir's. He was still tan, and had shoulder-length blond hair that was pulled back into a low ponytail. From what Nazmi could surmise, he was likely one of the other princes.
His presence was suffocating. She subconsciously leaned closer into Samir and, to her surprise, he tightened his grip on her waist protectively.
"What are you doing in my palace?" Samir asked, his voice venomous and cold. "I like keeping it clean here. I have no tolerance for parasites, it's why I have a pest control crew."
