Everywhere suddenly became quiet, as if the music was fading. I forcefully broke free from the anonymous strong grip and turned to see who it was.

Consumed with fear, I asked with a trembling voice, "What the fuck are you, and who was that?" "The guy you saw is Nemus," he replied. "He's a vampire." Stunned, I looked at him, unable to process what I had just heard. "A vam... pire?" updated daily.

But he needs a new mate because the last two killed themselves.

"First, the ability to bear heirs. Second, submission to me as King and Mate. And third, acceptance that I will not offer love." I stopped for a moment, "My Queen will receive anything material she wishes. But she will submit to me, and I will not bow. She will share my bed, my power, and my wealth... She will not share my heart." I waited, but none of them spoke. Good. I turned back to my servant to order them moved to the next challenge when a quiet but strong voice rose behind me. "Are you violent?" I turned back to the fire-haired woman with a flat smile. "Show me a wolf who isn't. And I am the King of the others. What do you think?" Her throat bobbed. The tear in the neckline of her cotton shirt offered a fleeting glimpse of plump cleavage. My cock twitched. "I meant with your Queen… um, Sire," she said uncertainly. "You said you have to dominate, that she has to submit. What is she submitting to?" I smirked. "I don't make a habit of leaving bruises," I said, letting a dark promise seep into my tone. "But they've been known to happen." It was quite thrilling when she paled. I once again turned away, gesturing to my man to start moving them when her voice rose one more time. "I'll volunteer," she said. When I whirled, she licked her lips then stepped forward. "I will be your mate… if you'll have me." Hiding my shock, I offered my most predatory grin to the poor, naive idiot. "My mate, like everyone else in this kingdom, is my slave. Now... are you certain?"

Sanity and Happiness are an impossible combination. ---- "You are mine, darling. I want everything about you, your heart, your soul, and your body. I want your undivided attention, smiles, thundering rage, and tears. Everything about you.

He pulled her closer, placing a feathery kiss on the hollow of her neck.
