Night arrived.

 Angelina would see Vlad tonight, and he would try to get her to lie with him. From what she knew about what Vlad did earlier in the day, he may not hesitate to be violent toward her. However, the more Angelina lived in the era, the more her fear slowly dwindled since she was getting used to the violence and threats. 

The fear would eventually dissipate. 

Angelina lay on her bed, listening to the servants' snores and staring into the darkness. She thought about her encounter with Daciana. Something was off with Daciana, feeling that she was hiding something. "I have to be in my guard," she thought. 

As sleep slowly consumed her, a tap was felt on her shoulder. "Child, it is time," Ioana whispered. A disappointed sigh escaped Angelina's lips. Ioana held Angelina's hand as she led her out of the room. Once out and the doors closed, Ioana grabbed a lit torch. "I have arrived late, but after what happened today, we must be more cautious than ever."

"It's alright. I would be cautious, too."

"I wanted to inform you that he is not in a good mood tonight, and there is a possibility that..."

Angelina felt her stomach hurt. "I knew something terrible was about to happen, but I still won't let him touch me."

Ioana glanced at her and noticed Angelina's hint of determination; she felt it. "Yes, she will change Vlad for the better." Squeezing her hand as they arrived, "We arrived. Are you ready, young one?"

 "Yes."

Ioana let her go and let Angelina be alone, who stood before the door. "God has never guided me; I have always been my guide." Gently knocking on the door, Angelina waited until she was given the signal.

"Enter."

Taking a deep breath, the young woman slowly opened the door; a warm gust of air hit her. Inside, Vlad sat before the mirror as his back turned on Angelina.

Closing the door, Angelina slowly walked forward until she reached him. Angelina felt surprisingly calm, which slightly scared her. She had a goal that motivated her to see it through to the end. "I heard what you did."

Vlad glanced at Angelina through the mirror's reflection. "You have seen the smoke."

"Yeah. I was horrified and disgusted by your vile actions." Vlad said nothing. Angelina continued, "You want people to call you 'Voivode'.  What you did out there was not what a Voivode should have done." 

Vlad slowly turned, faced her, and put his hands behind him. He slowly walked to Angelina until he was a couple of inches away from her. "And what in your view makes a Voivode?"

Anger was apparent, but Angelina refused to be intimidated. "A Voivode usually governs the province that was given to him by their King. A Voivode leads through an example to help protect the people, especially those who are vulnerable. You, Vlad, did the opposite. You killed the people who sought you for guidance and protection."

Suddenly, Vlad slapped Angelina so hard that she almost fell to her knees, but she gathered her strength to keep standing. Blood dripped from her lips, but Angelina slowly looked up at Vlad without wiping her blood. Her heart pounded, but she kept her calm. Then, Vlad grabbed a handful of her hair, bringing her face close to his. "You cursed woman! You try to mock me and tell me what my duty is! Those people were nothing but parasites to my people, to Wallachia!" His grip on her hair tightened. "I did the favor of ending their misery!"

"No, you didn't!" Angelina yelled with similar force. "You killed them because they remind you of your failures. You feared seeing the downtrodden and poor as the failings of your governorship. You killed those people who looked up to you! Who had hope that you would care for their suffering. You did more harm, especially to your reputation as Voivode."

"You dare-!" Angelina slapped him across the face. His eyes widened, letting go of Angelina's hair, but she did not move back.

Angelina was even shocked by her actions. She never intended to lay a hand on such a powerful man. Something within her being felt the urge to do so. Seeing Vlad consumed and entrapped in his ignorance, paranoia, and trauma made her want to snap him out of it. "I heard about your father. How much of a horrible man he was, who only cared about himself and power, leaving you, your siblings, and your mother in despair. Don't you want to be different from him!? Do you want to have a legacy of a man who spilled the blood of his people!? Or do you want a legacy of a beloved and feared man who did everything in his power for his people and country!? You have that power to be a better person, Vlad!" Angelina calmed herself, fighting her tears before continuing, "You never believed in yourself."

Angelina felt she had crossed the line, and it would be her last moment. She closed her eyes, awaiting Vlad to take her to the guards to have her impaled or for him to kill her. He then grabbed the back of her neck tightly. "This is it; I'm going to die. Hopefully, death will be quick." 

Vlad forcibly motioned her face to his. 

Their lips collided; they kissed.

Vlad was kissing her. 

Angelina's blood slowly dripped onto his lips, but Vlad didn't seem to mind. His tongue then forced its way into her mouth; their tongues connected. She wanted to fight back, but her brain was in a pleasurable euphoria. The kiss was initially forceful, then gradually grew passionate, with a hint of softness. Such emotions made it difficult for Angelina to escape; she missed the touch of a man. 

Vlad wrapped his free arm and hand around her face, pulling her onto his body.

"Mmnngghh..." Angelina's eyes widened when she realized a moan had escaped her. "I-I need to get away from him or else he-!" Vlad suddenly motioned her to the wall as he still kissed her. Her breasts squeezed onto his chest. Eventually, they separated from the kiss and caught their breath. "Wh-Wha...?"

"How can you do this to me, woman?"

"E-Excuse me? "

Vlad gently held onto her face, making her look at him. "Out of all the women I have been with, you are the only one who plagues my mind. You refuse me; you speak against me, knowing that I can kill you." He felt her breasts squeeze against him. It became pleasurable for him; Vlad got his erection between her legs, making Angelina flinch.

 "P-Please, let me go. I can tell you another story or sing you a song but-"

"But nothing, woman." Vlad squeezed their bodies closer, feeling Angelina's nipples harden. "I can no longer hold in my desires. I shall have you tonight one way or another." Holding onto her waist, I pulled her toward the bed. Angelina tried to struggle free, but she was pinned. Vlad lowered his face and kissed her again with passion and vigor.

Angelina's body wanted him, but she knew that she couldn't give Vlad what he wanted. "Vlad, no, I-!" Vlad swiftly took off her undergarment, lifted her legs, and put them over his shoulders, exposing her slightly wet entrance. "What the hell!? V-V-Vlad!?" He licked her entrance. A gasp escaped her lips as she arched her head back on the bed. His warm tongue teasingly licked her wet entrance. "N-No!" She let out a low moan.

"Your words tell me you do not wish this, but your body tells me otherwise." Looking at her wet entrance, he licked his lips. "Delectable." Vlad suckled her entrance. Angelina's moans and groans were music to his ears. He kept on licking until he felt her juices, and licked some of it off his lips. "Delicious..." Vlad lowered her legs and turned around, forcing Angelina to face him. "Now, you will pleasure me." Vlad lifted Angelina's dress, making her squeal. She also tried to pull her dress down, but was overpowered.

Angelina became horrified when Vlad undid his pants; his erection sprang out."St-Stop! D-Don't!" 

The Voivode turned her around, wrapping his legs around hers, as his erect penis was beneath her entrance and squeezed between her legs, making her squeeze onto his member. He slowly began to buck his hips backward and forward. Vlad groaned as he undid the upper part of Angelina's breast, exposing them. His moans and groans intensified as he thrusted between Angelina's inner thighs. "So good...good...yes..." 

Angelina wanted to scream, but couldn't as his erect penis brought pleasure to her insides. Her mind was in disarray as Vlad kissed her. His tongue was inside her mouth, overpowering hers. Vlad continued until drops of his precum dripped on Angelina's leg. He couldn't contain himself. He got his erect penis out between Angelina's legs and forced her onto her back. Angelina's mind was struggling to comprehend her situation. At the corner of her eyes, she saw Vlad's 7-inch erect penis ready to enter her.

Tears formed in her eyes. "No!"

"OH MY GOD! AAAAHHHH!"

The two stilled when they heard a yell. Vlad wanted to ignore the scream and return to the action at hand, but Angelina sat up. "Th-That sounded like Sorina! I have to go to her!" Angelina put her dress down as she wiped herself.

Vlad grabbed her arm. "Where do you think you're going!? We have unfinished business!"

The fear was gone, and Angelina felt an utter rage; she had freed her arm. "You want everything by force, Vlad! That's why I will never give myself to you! Kill me if you want! If you ever want me to accept you, be the man that I can give my body and heart to!" Angelina got to the door, opened it, and glared at Vlad. "A man who uses force is a coward." Vlad's eyes widened as Angelina exited the room. She ensured she wasn't caught while running out of the secret passage. Angelina ran to where Sorina screamed. The closer she got, the more she noticed a group of people going in the same direction.

Sorina screamed as she knelt on the floor; Angelina stopped, her eyes widening slowly.

Ioana lay motionless on the floor with blood dripping from her head.
