The Vampire King's Feeder

"Kane remains motionless, and I notice his gentle breath. It's remarkable how he seems to need minimal air, but I'm puzzled by his stillness. His hand, resting so near my ribs, ignites a desire within me - just an inch higher and his touch would be unprecedented, sending shivers through me. I struggle to suppress a soft sigh, despite the fact he hasn't even touched me yet." Emory: Born to lead my pack, I find myself in the heart of our enemy's domain - the Vampire King's castle. My hatred for Kane should be unwavering, but the more time we spend together, the stronger this inexplicable longing becomes. My purpose here isn't to be his lover, merely his sustenance provider. Yet, the mere thought of his lips on my skin tempts me to offer myself to him completely, if only he were to ask. Kane: My fascination lies not in Emory's blood, but in her body. Alas, I am already betrothed to another vampire, which could spark conflict. To keep her as my feeder without claiming her love, I search for a solution. Yet, every second she spends in Castle Graystone, her safety is at risk. As her protector, I must weigh the cost of putting her welfare above all else. Am I willing to risk everything for her? Or should I prioritize my kingdom's stability first?
