Chapter 3

**Cilia

**

Allesandro stepped into the room and sat next to me on the bed. I licked my lips and knelt at his side, bowing my head. My palms laid on my thighs, just as I’d been trained to. Like a perfect submissive. Even though my body ached, I was still his slave and he was still my master.

His cold fingers grasped my chin and forced me to raise my head. I met his dark eyes and kept perfectly still. My breath hitched in the back of my throat when his free hand took one of my hands.

“Did you eat, little one?” He murmured.

“Yes, Master. Thank you for feeding me.” I whispered.

He slid his hand down to my neck, wrapping his rough fingers around my throat. I shivered at the sudden touch. He smiled and brushed his lips against mine to capture me in a possessive kiss. He pulled away and pressed his forehead against mine, cursing under his breath in his foreign tongue.

“Is something wrong, Master?”

“No, my love. I have to go to see a friend. I’ll be gone for a few days.” He told me.

I felt my chest ache at being away from him. I didn’t want to be away from him. Allesandro released me and pulled me onto his lap. He brushed a strand of my hair away from my face and cupped the side of my face. “You’re coming with me. But first, I need to do a few things.”

He bit into his wrist like he did before and pressed it to my mouth. “Drink, little one.”

I held his wrist with two hands and sucked the metallic liquid. It should make me sick, but it doesn’t. For some reason, I loved the way his blood tastes. After a few moments, he pulled his wrist away and kissed my forehead. “I will have to take a few precautions in order to take you with me. I will have to put a collar on you.”

“Like they did at the auction house?” I asked.

He frowned. “Yes, I am sorry, but it’s for your own protection.”

“I understand, Master.”

He pulled out a diamond choker and whispered. “Stand up and go face the mirror.”

I did as he commanded and took a deep breath. Allesandro stood behind me and pushed my hair to the side. His cold fingers brushed my skin, causing my body to shiver. Not because I was cold. Because I was craving his touch. He fastened the choker around my neck and smiled at me through the mirror. “Si belle.”

“What does that mean, Master?”

“It means that you are the most beautiful creature I’ve ever seen.”

Allesandro held my hips and twisted me around. I wrapped my arms around his neck and pressed against his hard chest. My heart pounded as he leaned his head on the top of my head.

“Master?”

“Allesandro.”

“What?”

“When were alone, I want you to call me Allesandro.”

“Yes, Mas… I mean, Allesandro.”

“This friend, he’s not like me. He’s… a werewolf. An Alpha. The Alpha of the Crimson Peak territory.”

“But… I thought vampires didn’t get along with them.”

He sighed. “Most don’t, but me and him go way back. I grew up with him. I need you to stay by my side no matter what. Don’t make any eye contact with any of them. Most importantly, don’t let them sense your fear.”

“I never feel scared when I’m with you. You make me feel safe.” I whispered.

“Good, I never want you to be frightened of me.”

“Allesandro…”

In one swift move, I was sped to the bed and pinned to the mattress. His eyes darkened and his face changed. His eyes are now red. The color of blood. And his fangs protruded. “I can smell your arousal, little one.”

“Allesandro…” I gasped. “I… need you.”

“Do you, little one? Are you begging to be fucked again so soon after I took your innocence?” Allesandro growled. “Tell me this, do you want to be fucked by your Master or do you want your mate to make love to you?”

“Master, please.” I whimpered.

Allesandro held my wrists above my head and leaned into my neck, inhaling deeply. With his free hand, he reached under my dress and teased my clit with his cold fingers.

“Please, Master.” I whimpered.

“Such a good girl. You are my obedient servant, yes?”

“Yes, Master.”

Allesandro pulled away to my disappointment and shook his head. “I’m sorry, but it wouldn’t be right. Not right now. Not without…”

“Without what?” I asked.

He shook his head. “I can’t right now. Not without my brother.”

I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion.

“What do you mean by that?”

He took a deep breath. “You are special, Cilia. Do you know what mates are, or in my case, do you know what a beloved is?”

I shook my head.

“A mate is a destined soulmate. In my case, a mate is my beloved. Someone I protect and am very possessive of. You, little one, are my beloved. Mine. But you are special because… not only are you mated to me. You are also the beloved of my brother too.”

“What?”

I couldn’t have heard that right.

Right?

How would that even work?

Two men.

One woman.

In a relationship.

“When I drank from you for the very first time, I knew you were the one. Our beloved. Our mate. Ours. So, I can’t have sex with you until my brother marks you as well. Together, my brother and I will make love to you for the first time together and bond us together as one.”

“I’ve never… I’ve never been with two men at the same time. Just you.”

“We’ll be gentle as we can be, but first, my brother has been dying to officially meet his one and only.”

“Then, both of you will make love to me?” I asked.

“Not yet. We just need to make sure you’re marked by both of us before we go on our little trip. Tell me, are you scared?”

“No,” I whispered. “I’m a little nervous, but no, I’m not scared.”

“Good, wait here and I’ll go get my brother.”

“What if… what if he doesn’t like me?”

“No, little one. He already adores you. As do I. Now, stay just like this while I retrieve my brother.”

I clenched my thighs together at the thought of being shared between two men. And the thought of being taken by two vampires had my heart pounding against my chest. It shouldn’t turn me on, but it does.

Does that make me a slut for wanting this more than anything?

Probably.

But I can’t help it.

It’s apparently my destination to be mated to the two sexy vampire brothers.
