My Lords’ Sweet Love Bites - Chapter 4 Blood Ring
Tian moves her head to look around and finds a pair of purple eyes staring at her. Their teeth in the shape of the vampire but not in that shape either. Tian moves her head up a bit and looks near her arm; she finds a man’s head. He had her arm near his mouth. As soon as Tian looks at him, his head jerks upwards and a sudden pain travels through her arm. She screams out loudly but soon everything is muffled again. Sharp needles pierce her brain.
Her body felt like it was being thrown in frozen sea water. From outside it felt like the ice was building on her skin but from inside it felt like everything was burning on stakes. The only thought that came to her was that this must be a dream. Pain has always felt real in her dreams so it all must be fake. This cannot be possible otherwise.
Tian felt everything being drained out of her. The pain came to her from all over direction and it was devouring her slowly. Tian notices the rings on her left hand from the corner of her eye. Her right arm was near her head and there were marks all over it. Most of the place was covered in blood. The ring was changing colours by the seconds. There were only dark colours though. Tian thought it was a dream but why was the ring that the lady gave her will be in the dream?
A sudden gallery of memories flashes through her brain. Her parents. Her siblings. The fight; and the blood she couged up. This is real! But it cannot be real. Supernatural creatures don’t exist. Tain uses the little strength she had in her body to struggle and get up. There were marks on her legs and the faces next to there staring at her.
A sudden pain from her finger travels through her body. Flowers and patterns in colour of red start coming out of the ring. They slowly start surrounding around Tian’s body. The figure of strangers around her body abruptly get pushed far away by unseen force. Everyone stares in shocked.
Scars of burns start appearing on Tina’s arms and body. The marks of bites keep appearing and disappearing. Her heart felt like it was being frozen but then boiled in hot water. She felt like tiny insects were travelling through her bloodstreams. Sudden pain in her head forces her to close her eyes. Tian slowly begins to lose consciousness again.
Everyone starts going in commission and starts screaming. The room fills up with bright red light. The crest of the new moon and flowers with spirals appears on the floor. The lord from the shadow appears out in panic.
“Shit. How did this happen?” His worrisome face makes everyone panicked.
“Damn, I said how did this happen? I told you to feed on her not change her.”
“Lord, it is impossible for us to change a human into our kind. I think it was the ring.” One of the guys who had drunk Tians’ blood spoke out.
“Shit. Shit. What is happening here? Damn! Someone explain it to me?” His voice roared through the hall and everyone became quiet and afraid. Nobody dared to speak out.
“We cannot stop what is happening in front of us. The ring was activated when the blood was completely taken out of her body.” A man appears from the shadow while holding a box in his hands. He looked like he was in 50’s.
“What do you mean?” The Lord questions him.
“It seems that today is this girls 16th birthday. She was bitten by the vampire and the ring on her hand saved her from dying. She is neither human now or our kind. Only legends in the books described the transformation. Otherwise, it is impossible for us to change a human into our kind. The ring now belongs to her.” The man described the information he knew. Everyone in the hall was focused on listening to the conversation.
“Everyone Leave!” A man near the door appears. His hairs were silver and eyes as cold as ice. Upon hearing his voice, everyone in the room disappeared except the Lord and the old man.
“WTF is going on here, Zylan? Call the vampire protectors here now!” The man shouts through the room and the Lord immediately obeys and calls out to the vampire protectors through a spell.
Zylan Lord quietly whispers something in the dark and soon 5 men appear wearing a black cloak and their faces covered with masks. The look over at Tian covered in red light and flower patterns. They quickly get upon there knees seeing the guy with silver hair.
“Majesty Qin, we have brought what you requested.”
One of the men covered in mask brings forward a box. He opens it and finds a red pearl inside. The size of the pearl was very small, you wouldn’t be able to see it unless it was on a white paper. The old man also comes forward and opens the box. There was a ring inside the box. It was just a plain silver ring with no decoration.
Qin picks up the ring and the pearl and brings them both together. Red light flashes and similar patterns appear around the ring like the patterns around Tian. The ring now had a red jewel stuck on it. It looked exactly like the one that was on Tians’ hand but also very different in shapes.
“Your majesty. You are not planning to marry her. Are you?” Lord Zylain speaks up as Qin was walking towards Tian.
“What choice have you left me with, Zylan?” Qin smiles at Zylan and starts walking towards Tian again.
“But, what about her highness? Her Highness is already your future wife. You cannot abandon her for this lowly life.” Zylan speaks out again.
“Mind your words Zylan. Since when have you started speaking out against me?”
“I apologise to your majesty.”
Qin starts walking towards Tian. He looks at her face and sees the dried tears on her face. He looks at the deep marks and clenches his hands in a fist. He walks towards her and as soon as he reaches her, he creases her face. He holds her left hand and puts the ring on there. The ring on her right hand becomes a dust and disappears in the air.
“Finally, you have become mine Tian.” Qin slowly whispers these words in her ear.
The patterns around her don’t disappear but the light does. Tian grunts out in pain and coughs out blood from her mouth.
“What’s happening to her?” Qin shouts and the old men rush to stand next to him.
“Your majesty, I suggest keeping her in the chamber because she is changing right now. Her powers can only be oppressed there” The old men speak while shivering in fear.
Qin gets up while holding Tian in his arms and starts walking towards the door. The people that were present in the hall remain silent and don’t dare to stop him.
