Damien stood still waiting for a reaction from his mate. She maintained her normal position on the bed and still continued staring at him.

" well? "

" Hmmm "

" so you mean to tell me you came all the way to my room, interrupted my sleep and you have nothing to tell me.

that sounds a little bit hard to believe or don't you think so your highness? "

she pins Damien down with a questioning glare.

" what if that's the truth princess" , he edges closer to her

"what if I tell you I'm plagued by the desire to conquer you, the need to have you, to be with you, to own you "

Lucilda looks him straight in the eyes and replies.

" what's stopping you now?, tell me your highness why you've not acquired me like some trophy, or claimed me like a possession of some sort, tell me why you allow yourself to be restless and to be wanting me ".

"Tell me why your highness, tell me why the mighty king of the lycanthropes let's himself be bothered by a mere tiny vampire or aren't the rumours true again, about your ruthlessness and how you care about no one but your own selfish interest ".

She ends with a smirk.

Damien sees through her game, he knows she wants him to do something drastic, and uncalculated so she can have the Advantage but he's going to show her he's better at this game.

" well played princess, well played. But let me get one thing clear to you, you can't manipulate me, if you think all these will work out then I'm so happy to disappoint you. you've only wasted your time".

she couldn't hide her disappointment as her mood turned sour almost immediately.

" The only reason I can even attempt to stomach your presence is just to calm my beast, you already know how important the mate bond is to him, he can't help it, he holds his creator the moon goddess in high esteem so he'll accept and worship every law, rule, regulation you name it that's from her. if it weren't for that I'm sure we both know that he doesn't have the time to entertain your bloodsucking, good for nothing, irritating and annoying presence and I'm sure we both know that, or do I have to say it again princess for you to get it into your good for nothing skull ". He ridiculed her.

Her reaction was expected, she couldn't even control it if she wanted and he most definitely wasn't expecting it.

The sound of the slap resonated all through the room and probably half the castle. His face was tipped to the other side due to the force of the slap,He growled and wiped the blood on his lips.

The way he growled stopped her from attacking any further and her hand hung mid air, one couldn't deny Damien was mad, really mad but he couldn't bring himself to hurt the vampire.

He just stared at her and walked out, slamming the door on his way out.
