Chapter 165
I was searching for an escape from the madness, when my eyes locked with hers. Sebastian had her up against the wall, feeding on her while he pounded into her. We stared at each other, holding onto the others‘ gaze like a lifeline. As she looked at me, she silently said, “I’m here.” My heart fluttered and I returned her words with my own silent words, “You’re not alone.”
It became our nightly routine. We’d lock eyes and when our vampires were busy, we’d mouth those words to each other. I think that may have been the only thing that kept me alive, kept me going. Especially once I could no longer hear Alessia. I felt so alone until that moment.
“Guardian.” Prince Keenan purrs in his vulgar way. “I require more blood tonight, take off your top.” While the prince did not ever rape me, and he did not let any of the other vampires touch me, he did find repulsive ways to make his feeding sexual. Tonight would be no different. He had an insatiable appetite, some nights taking three or more humans, usually killing all of them as he fed.
