Elizabeth
It had been a month since I had reached this unfamiliar terrain and became the personal slave of my so called vampire maye Lazarus, king Lazarus to be specific. He had made a few changes to the list I was always presented with bu adding blood drinks and blood moktails as his breakfast.

I think I now learned how to make blood lattes. Is this normal over here. Yeah , in order to learn how to make them I had to make use of vamptube , a vampire substitute to youtube. My so called master had a little bit of mercy on me and gave me a phone on which his number was stored and vamptube worked.

For some odd reason no other number could work on that phone, whenever I tried any other number form the phone book I found while cleaning the storeroom, the phone would go on a lockdown of thirty seconds. Like really? Does he think the vampire police over here would really arrest their king on the basis of the words of a mere human, who is considered weak, needy, clumsy and delusional over here. I don't think so.

Anyways I woke up earlier today, only to find Lazarus  or should I say master awake. He was staring at me with his green eyes.

"Good morning master" I said, a habit I had developed over the past one month, in order to try and break the rough exterior of the vampire I was destined to love and stay with.

"Today I have some guests coming over, my friends to be specific. Having a little mercy on a pathetic excuse if a living being, I have asked some of the vampire maids, Laura and Amelia to help you out with the work. I expect you to respect them. They may be maids but they are of higher rank than you. You're a human and they a vampire. Be good, human" he said as his green eyes stated at my soul through my eyes.

They say eyes are meant to be the windows of ones soul. Through his eyes I could see a broken boy who wishes to be loved. Hope filled me. That maybe all this is an act, maybe he will change, if I just lush him hard enough.

Coming out of my stance, the spell his eyes casted on me, I cleared my head and spoke with a voice as steady as I could muster.

"Yes master. I will remember my place. What all should I have prepared for when you're back? " I asked. As much as I hated to say these words, to be told my place was lower than that of vampires, I held back my pride, my respect, my voice, just for the sake of not angering the king with a dark past, in belief that the small hope I had of him changing is real and that if I obey him, he will soon realise my worth.

"The list is waiting downstairs human, I have zero faith in your memory skills. I am going out for now and shall be back for dinner, I had those maids prepare you some breakfast, just for the sake that you need the strength because today won't be easy, it will be tougher than what you can handle. " He said.

With that he made a tray of delicious bread and tea along with some fruit and a single muffin float and settle in front of me. He then gave me one look before flying out the window. Why been bother having a door? Just have windows in the entire castle, after all more than the doors, he loved to use windows.

Rolling my eyes I ate my food and then went into the bathroom to shower and change. I did some light make up, with whatever supplies he provided. It wasn't much, just some moisturizer, cream, eyeliner and a lip gloss, cherry flavour. I combed my hair and braided it. Wearing jeans and a top with some slippers, I looked myself in the forbidden mirror. Forbidden? Well it was suppose to be only used by  Lazarus .

I quickly put away my make  shift bed and then made the master bed. Making sure the room looked good, I walked downstairs. Must I add, that I was feeling a little under the weather, k think sleeping on the floor in the cold weather has made me catch a cold.

I walked down and was greeted by too vampire maids, who I assume to be Laura and Amelia. They were busy making the food in the kitchen. Yes they were the perfect example of bitches needing attention. Faces filled with a ton of makeup, boobs presses up  and asses pointing out, heels and wedding the shortest of the shortest dresses they could find. Don't they have any self preservation or self respect?

"Oh Laura would you see that, the human who is the talk of the town, the bitch who is mated to the king, the girl who is the weakest of weaklings in the empire, has finally showed up. " Said whom I assume is Amelia. Red hair with the Karen cut. Yup definitely a Karen.

"Oh Amelia, don't you know, she is mated to a king, a king who doesn't even want her, I think she that now that king isn't here she is assuming she is in charge" Said Laura. Black hair non Karen hair cut. Interesting. Still classified as a Karen though.

"Laura, she may be a queen, but she is a human. Her rank is at our feet, not on our heads... Let's chill with some wine whole she does all the work" Said Amelia.

"Yeah, anyways, you and I just got a manicure, we can't let those get dirty" Replied Laura

"Hey slave, clean the castle, within an hour then get your filthy ass back downstairs " Said Amelia as she finally stood in front of me.

"I'm sorry, but I take order only from master not from sluts." I said.

Immediately I was held in a choke hold.

"Look sass bitch, you're no match to our strength. If you love life, do what we say" Said Laura angrily

Amelia slapped me, sending me flying into the wall. Ouch.

"Now get to work, human" She growled as the two of them sat on the plush leather couches, wine in their hands glaring at me.

"Bitch, you need to clean every corner, sit on your heels and so it, you aren't getting the dust from under the Sofia's" Growled Laura.

As I approached them to do so, Laura grinded her heel on my back, making me scream

"Hurry up bitch, we don't have all day. Two hours more and then king would be back with the Royal guests, we don't want to be punished because of some himan who is slacking" Said Amelia as she poured some steaming coffee on my hand.

I screamed in agony, the pain being to much. I was sure I was going to have blisters on my palms.

Finally the cleaning was done and I went to the kitchen to make the blood feast. Blood latte, blood pudding, blood mud cakes and wait is that blood meat pasta. What the hell.

As I was making the pasta, I felt a cough brew up. Unable to stop it I coughed loudly, disturbing the sleep of those two vampires, laying around on the couches. Within seconds I was pinned to a wall

"Quiet human, we were resting our pretty eyes. You disturbed is, let alone the germs you just spread" Said Laura and then she just threw me into the opposite wall

I felt blood ooze out from the back of my head.

"Aww, the human is bleeding. I wouldn't mind taking a sip, but the thing is that I don't drink from weak sick humans" Said Amelia as they both laughed.

I got up, ignoring the dizziness and resumed  working on the pasta. I was half way through when I felt a wave of dizziness wash over me. I swayed and in a desperate attempt as fo not fall I clutched onto the nearest thing I could find, unfortunately that was Amelia.

She pushed me of herself,

"Off human, no need to get your filthy hands on my lovely skin" She said as she took out a wet wile and started to clean the area I had unintentionally touched.

I was now sitting in the floor clutching my head. I was feeli g nauseous, I was sick, hurt and hungry. Everything pained. My head, my arm, my back and even my heart hurt. I was so close to giving up.

"Now that the work is over, we have the instructions from king that we may go back to the main castle. " Said Amelia

"Yeah, being with our mates will be much better than the company of a human" Said Laura

"Hey, human, no one will ever accept you as a queen, your just a slave and just a play toy for the king" Said Amelia

"One day he will leave you. He will feed from you and then leave you" Said Laura

"I bet he is fucking another vampire and proposing to her for a marriage" Said Amelia

"I don't blame him at all, after all who wi want to be with a human" Said Laura

"Yeah, poor king, he waited for centuries for his mate only to know she is human" Replied Amelia as she glared at me with a smirk

"Yeah I bet he is wishing that he never had a mate" Said Laura

"After all being mate less is better than being mated to a human" Said Amelia

"You know what human, if we had it our way you would be dead by now" Said Laura

"King deserves far better than you. You don't deserve the title of a queen" Said Amelia

"Even king realised that, no wonder he made you a slave" Said Laura

Another wave of dizziness hit me and whimpered in response.

"If your waiting for a fairy tale ending, where the vampire falls in love with the human, then you're delusional" Said Amelia

"A vampire will never love a human. Specially king. After all his past is the reason he hate them in the first place" Said Laura

"Come Laura let's leave, the human doesn't deserve our time. " Said Amelia

"Yeah, I have no idea why we wasted time with her, we could have kissed our lovable mates by now" Said Laura as they both flew out the window.

Gathering the last bit of strength I had, I began my hunt for a first aid box. I looked everywhere but couldn't find one.

Just when I found one in the bathroom, in the third floor, right corridor, last room, I heard the castle bell ring.

I knew, if I didn't open the door by the third bell, I would be punished with the whip like last time, I ran downstairs, ignoring my first aid and using the last bits of strength I had.

I opened the door on the fourth bell, go be met by Lazarus with his back to me and three other Royal men staring at me.

"Hi" I said to them and they smiled softly at me and then their eyes widened when they looked over my state

"I told you human before also, open the door by the third bell else you will be Punished. I guess I wasn't clear. 25 whips are in.... Woah" He said.

He had just turned around to look at me know the eye to tell me my punishment, when I began to see back dots. I stumbled right into his arms and saw a flicker of terror and concern in his eyes before I passed out.

The last thing I heard was his voice telling me to hang on

"Open your eyes human, keep your eyes open. Look at me Elizabeth" He said as my eyes fluttered closed.
