The King's Sorceress

Chapter 3

Amethyst’s POV

I feel like my soul is being devoured by these exquisite eyes I’m staring into. The man they belong to has the most handsome face I have ever laid eyes on . Strong jaw line with effortless dark brown hair.

He has a piercing in his left ear and and a snake bite piercing. Goddess this man.... My heart is racing and my chest feels heavy like my breath is caught…..

I feel a tingling under my left hand as electric pulses permeate my body. I slowly gaze down from his face to his broad shoulders and notice my hand is resting on his muscular chest. He is wearing Black jeans that hang low on his waist A tight v neck shirt and leather jacket. The shirt allows me to see his perfectly sculpted chest and abs. I notice at the wrist cuff of his jacket there is the edge of both sleeve tattoos.

This man has to be like 6’4 because he is towering over my 5’4 stature even with 4 inch heeled boots on.

He is the picture of man. He smells of cologne and masculinity. This man looks like he was hand crafted by gods, angle, and devils alike. He radiates an aura of power and authority that it is almost terrifying . I just stare at him. My brain unable to formulate any kind of coherent thought let alone process the image in front of me.

He smirks and says in a voice that is deep, smooth as silk, husky, and gruff “ Easy now…...That seems a little excessive don’t you think.”

His voice sends shivers down my spine that awakens a fire down in my core. I feel like I am getting hot between my legs . Come on Amethyst snap the hell out of this. I will not be undone by a man. I make the rules. I need to snap out of this attraction to him. I purse my lips and say

“ Not in the slightest being as how you were the one stalking me.”

He stares at me for what seems like an eternity yet a blink of an eye. I see his eyes glow red for a moment. He eyes look like they are filled with so many things I can't under stand .

Daemon's POV

" Not in the slightest being as how you were the one stalking me" she utters

Her voice... so melodic... angelic.... yet seductive and provocative. I want to hear more. My body aches to touch her unlike anything I have ever felt. My beast is loosing it like a wild animal trapped in a cage. Her eyes...

Now that I'm this close its almost as if they are windows into the soul. Her breathing seems edgy. I can feel that I'm effecting her. I try to invade her mind using my mental abilities.

" Can you put the g*n away? I won't hurt you. I give you my word. " I ask.

" Your word? That's original coming from a vampire who's trying to control me." she says laced with venom.

What... She can't be mind controlled. How very interesting I must admit. She takes a step back removing the weapon and hand from me. Immediately I feel empty without her touch. I catch a peek of her legs under the skirt as she holsters the weapon in her garter.

"Do you trust me now my beauty?"

She quirks up her eyebrow " Trust you? Absolutely not I just can tell your not threatening to me or any innocent people and don't call me your beauty. I'm not yours"

Yet my beast growls.

" How can you tell that? What are you ? and what do you want me to call you then ,as you never gave me your name . "I inquire.

" Because you did not ask."

" Amethyst ! Are you out here?" I hear being yelled over by where the door is.

Amethyst is her name huh. Beautiful and unique just like she is. I hear her growl under her breath and reply " Yeah Bella I am over here. "

I see the black haired witch with green eyes she was dancing with come around the corner. Must be her friend because they don't look very similar.

" Let's go home Bella I'm done here" Amethyst says.

" Wait , whose your handsome friend" Bella asks winking at Amethyst.

I stifle a laugh. "He's nobody " Amethyst says obviously trying to sound like she gives zero sh*ts about my presence but I can see right though her façade. I know I'm effecting her. I could tell from the first moment I ran my finger tips down her arms in the club, I could hear her heart beat change ....smell her desires.

" My name is Daemon " I tell her.

" Yeah..OK... Cool. And we are leaving now" as she grabs her friend Bella's hand and drags her up to a Mazda RX-9 valet has brought forward. Hmm my Amethyst likes cars and weapons and knows how to defend herself. I very much look forward to unwrapping the masterpiece puzzle. They get in the car and Amethyst drives away. Nick comes out of the Kat a few moments later.

" What happened to you?" He asks.

" Eh, nothing special but I'm ready too leave"

He looks at me with disbelief. " yeah uh-huh , I don't believe you in the slightest. You have this look on your face like a hungry dog who's hatching a plan"

" Perhaps" I say emphasizing the p. Nick waves at the valet and shortly after they pull up in my R-35. We get in and head home. I want to know more about Amethyst and make her mine body and soul.

Amethyst's POV

"Ugh" I groan.

Finally I am back home. Bella had walked back to her apartment. Might as well grab a glass of wine and get on the computer. I settled at my desk in my red and black GTracing chair. "mmmm " so comfortable and relaxing. I lean back in the chair deep in my thoughts. What was it about that man? He was so .... sexy. The very essence of man.

I was finding myself wanting to touch him ,taste him. I need to get these dirty thought out of my mind. Why was I so taken in by him? Men usually annoy me. There is a reason I am a 24 year old virgin. Men have this cocky aura like everything in the world exists to serve them. But, he was different. He seemed like an enigma.

Not to mention I had heard the weird voice in my head. Oh well I can't really focus on anything better then him, might as well go to bed. I walk over to my security system panel and activate it. " Beeep "

I really hope my condo renovations are finished tomorrow like its supposed to be. I'm sick of listening to Bella complain about my apartment . It served its purpose allowing me to find the backdoor to hack into the banking systems and find out the vampires money trail. I imbedded the bot in their system. If they buy a Lolli Pop I'll know where. I change into a tank top and my panties for sleeping and settled into my bed, closing my eyes before drifting softly into sleep

"Amethyst"...... " Amethyst ... my child"

I see this woman whom is so beautiful by all rights I feel guilty looking at her. She has long black hair, porcelain skin, and eyes the color of the moon. She has a Diadem on with a crescent moon in the center and strings of silver hanging from the band so it looks like stars streaking in her hair.

"Are you the Moon Goddess ?" I ask.

She smiles back at me. Her smile makes my heart feel overwhelmed with love and joy.

"What do you need from me" I ask her.

"All questions will be answered in time my child. Just know my mark of favor is upon you."

Just then she begins to fade.

I awake in my bed. Searing pain in the middle of my back. I rush to the mirror pull up my tank top and there in the middle of my back is the most amazing mark as if a birth mark or a tattoo. Its a waxing crescent, a whole moon , and a waning crescent down the middle of my back.

I guess that wasn't just a dream. I walk back to bed, get settled, and attempt to go back to sleep after my encounter with the moon goddess. Slowly I drift back into a dreamless sleep.
