“Yes…yes I have heard that you were…and it has also came to my attention that you also are to be our Lady of the Vampires…how sweet…” Jacoby said, still keeping that evil grin upon his pale face. Mira stood from the snow and gulped, trying to find her courage to stand up against him now that she was stronger. She began to walk away quickly, “If…if you’ll excuse me.” She said nervously, hoping to get away from him before he had done something drastic, but it was too late. Jacoby grabbed her wrist and pulled her back as his hand went around her throat, paralyzing her with his Vampiric powers. His other arm over her chest as he took in her scent, feeling her body tremble against his.

“You think I’d let you go that easy? Do you honestly believe that Mathias even wants you? Since you came along, it’s been all about you, nothing else but that damned fairy that I cannot have! Now you’re one of us and a bride to the King of the Vampires, but I won’t give up, no…I will never let you go!” He said angrily and gripping her roughly; nearly bruising her. “Let go of me, Jacoby… think about what you are doing…if Mathias sees you he will kick you out of the coven for sure…” Mira said softly, trying to reason with him.

The sun had already disappeared onto the horizon as the day came and gone. Mira was the first to awake as she slipped outside to enjoy the freshly fallen snow among the brush of the back yard. The ocean was beyond the stone wall behind her as she could hear the clap of the waves hit along the shore. “We must be so far north…I wonder where we really are.” she said softly, tracing her finger along the dust-like blanket of flakes. This world seemed to be of paradise with the ambiance of the atmosphere that had surrounded her, however she was not alone.

The sound of crunching was heard, as if someone knew where she was and wanted to speak with her. The scent she remembered of the one Vampire she somehow could not even stand. Her eyes moved to see, but not her head; it was Jacoby. He chuckled, ”Well, you certainly look different, without your wings and all. You look more like a porcelain doll than a fairy.” His voice had a chill that Mira sensed as a warning. She muttered a reply to him, “I am a Vampire now, the word has already flowed through the coven.”

“Shouldn’t you be in bed already instead of moping about, Jacoby? Dawn will be coming soon.” Lucretia said as she leaned against the archway. Jacoby scoffed at her, “Do not mock my sadness woman, I do not need you or anyone else to tell me to go to bed.” Lucretia raised a brow, “Is this about Mira? She isn’t dead because Mathias brought her back, they’re getting married next week. I figured Thorne would have told you by now.” 

Jacoby’s ears came to attention as he stood up quickly, glaring at Lucretia with fury raging within his veins  Lucretia smirked slightly, “My, you seem so shocked about the news. What is it, Jacoby? I thought you wanted Mira to live?” He stayed silent, wanting to speak but hesitated. He clutched his fist tightly as his eyes glowed with intense anger. Mira was to be married, and not to him. He knew she was not his to begin with, but it still filled his mind with fire all the same.

“After all this time, I never realized why I was so angry with my Master, I never understood how I could be so upset with him. He had saved me from uncertain death that my family had put upon me. It was only a matter of time before my magic would fade from me and I would then perish. He had took me in, gave me a home, and taken very good care of me….and all the while that he did, I had hated him, blaming him for my sadness when it was never his fault. I realize now that I love him, and that I was somehow denying it in my heart without even knowing it. I could not ask for a better Vampire, a better man for that matter….to have for eternity.”

Mathias backed Mira against the bed as he crawled over her. Mira could feel her heart race rapidly more than it ever has before with strange emotions washing over her body. Mathias’ voice turned from friendly to a sensual tone, “There is nothing that could replace you, nothing. You are my world, and everything that it revolves around. I am in love with you Mira, and there is nothing that can stop my craving for you…” Mira trembled, but it was not a sense of fright. She hesitated to speak, and replied with a simple nod, feeling hypnotized by her Master’s silver eyes.

Mathias sighed as a smile formed upon his face. Mira thought it as odd since Mathias hardly ever smirked, not even a little. “Silly girl,” he said shaking his head, “Why must you always be so oblivious to the things around you? If you were only a single purpose, do you think I would even spare my own blood just to bring you back? You mean more to me than you will ever know. You are not source of energy, magic, food, but a source of light that I have lacked for so long…something that is irreplaceable…”

Mira stared at him in complete shock, her tears staining her soft freckled cheeks of blood. She could not believe what he was saying, she was more than just a pet? Was this a trick of some sort? How she wanted to believe him, to actually yearn for the words he was giving her. “W-what…what are you even saying, Master…? Are you listening to yourself…?” Her voice was quaky with nervousness as she was beyond confused.

Mira cried heavily, but before she could cuss every existing word in the dictionary, she heard the door open with a familiar scent in the air; Mathias. She looked over at him, “You did this didn’t you…DIDN’T YOU?!” She charged at him angrily, though he paused her attack with her wrist tightly in his large pale hand, “I did it to save you, Mira. You were dying. I could not live without you by my side.” His voice was firm, enough to bring Mira’s fury to no longer a raging flame.

Somehow her Master still had that power over her. Her eyes widened to his reply. He really did care about her despite the fact she was his slave. She had to know why he bothered to keep her alive, “Why…? I’m not a fairy anymore, I thought I only served one purpose to you…Shouldn’t you have just let me die?”
