Not Your Mate Anymore

Josey's POV

I was stupid to think this man lured me in to his bedroom to talk the history of vampires and where he comes from.

It was foolish of me to think that this man would tell me about vampires and how they came about.

Instead, there he was feeding off not one, but two naked females and he was inviting me join in on the fun.

"Call it your initiation. Judging by your actions earlier, you have never feasted on a human before. Nobody wants to die a virgin, Josey.” He says to me but I scoff in response.

Greatly disgusted by his actions and how these women were pretending to enjoy having fangs pierce their skin and be drained of blood.

"I will pass on that offer, thank you kindly for sharing your food but I am stuffed from my dinner earlier, fried chicken." I say and he just smiles as he slowly undresses himself.

It was wildly erotic watching him undress in front of me and the other ladies. Vampires were gifted crazy speed but he sure took his time, making it all the more suspenseful. He was putting on a show and we were all captivated by it.

His body, a complete work of art. Not one scar on him to brag about or a hair out of place. He invoked feelings I did not want to feel. In no way did I want to cheat on my mates or act on the how I felt but they were there and I could not ignore them.

“We are sultry creatures, vampires. Sex is a work of art for us. We rush everything but when it comes to sex, it is enjoyed slowly. I try to prolong it as much as I can and feasting on your partner brings about a different kind of euphoria for our kind, it is like a drug. Highly addictive but we are granted immortality and cursed to roam the earth drinking only blood and doing nothing else. It is not like we can waste away like humans." Cayden tells me, clearly enjoying the show he is giving us.

"You said cursed?” I ask and he smiles.

“Caught that one, didn't you?" He says and this time, I smile. For me to better defend my kind, I have to know the enemy. Funny thing is that enemy is also now my kind.

“A very long time ago, a pale boy was born. A boy born with fangs that killed his mother when he was full term from the inside. A boy that drained his mother of every drop, killing her and forcing the doctors to cut her open and save him. Little did they know that I was my mother's killer, taking care of me but my body would reject the food or milk given to me. This troubled everyone but my father, for he knew why I was this way. My mother was cursed to give birth to a demon child. One who would cause chaos and bring about death every where he went and to everyone around him. My father would feed me his blood at night away from prying eyes until I was old enough to compel people to do my bidding. When I became a man, I turned my father in to a vampire, inflicting a pain I never knew existed.” Cayden says and I sit on one of his bedroom chairs, completely engrossed in this tale.

Ignoring the fact that another woman was giving him head right in front of me.

" Josey, my father killed for sport. Feeding off the weak and vulnerable because he could and creating an army of vampires that would bring chaos in to the world, just as it was prophesied. Yes, I was not the doom bringer but I turned my father so I take the blame. He later introduced the vampire kingdom, placing himself as king above all immortals. The vampire army forcing every vampire in to submission and those that did not agree with him were slaughtered. He turned his brother in to a vampire, who turned his family. That's the house of Wordsworth that your sister so famously slaughtered by the way. The news reached me before Thomas even knocked on my door asking for an army to take down some fierce werewolf girl who has magic powers! Imagine our shock to hear that wolves have superpowers besides the fact that they are inherently stronger than us, they can call on the elements and torch us to ashes. We did not believe him obviously because in my years of living, I have never come across

such a wolf with magical powers. Unless you have something to tell me?” Cayden says to me, pushing the girl away from him and walking towards me in his very naked form.

“I do not know anything about Wolves with a fire power but we believe our god, the moon goddess possesses abilities far past our capabilities and she is very much alive. I also know that our god, the moon goddess, brings about vengeance to anyone that harms children, werewolf pups and that is what happened to Thomas and his family, the karma that was a long time coming. Who feeds on a werewolf baby? I understand your silly weird fetish for fucking your food while you eat but what is with the kids? That is unforgivable. I would have slaughtered his family too if I had such powers.” I say, creating some distance between the naked vampire king and I by pushing my chair away from him.

"It is cruel but delicious. After many years of having nothing to live for. one can easily fall in to an addictive pattern. I know for a fact that Thomas did not feed on this baby because that is a road a vampire can never come back from. As addictive as this is..." Cayden says his hand pointing at the two girls lying on his bed.

"Feeding on a werewolf baby, the purity in the blood is very addictive and I say this because I know. I have tasted that sweetness and I can tell you there is nothing quite like it. Now, how about you tell me how you came to know about Thomas and the killing of his family?” Cayden asks me, gently pulling me up and pinning me to the wall.

I can be in the sun further proves the fact that I was cursed to be alone, forever. I have had many queens, I have loved and I have lost. I have tried to live among humans and away from them, I have been the monster I was born to be, finally accepting my fate and existing just to cause chaos and fear all around me. I have been the monster human mothers tell their children as a bedtime story and I have been their hero at times but one thing that I have learned in all my years of being on this earth is that humans are incapable of gratitude and they still regarded me as a monster even after providing safety and economic freedom.

a young woman who was with child and needed to hide from whatever, my mother being a good woman offered her help. I was told this woman was not human, far from it but my mother was able to suppress her power and help her blend in. Apparently this woman's mother was able to do the same before her to be with the love of her life and now she needed the same thing to hide away in the hopes of saving her unborn child who was royalty. My mother helped her out and when she returned back to her coven, the damage had been done and the leader found out she had interacted with someone from the future, threatening their work and having the coven gain an enemy in the future that would wipe out the entire coven and every bloodline tied to it, except for me since I was cursed already. Now the coven is dead and so is my mother. I just want to meet the heavenly woman who caused my mother her life and brought upon the curse on me." Cayden says and
