Erica's POV:

I laid on my bed in the room, praying for the girls to stay outside and not come in but nah, they bursted into the room making unacceptable noises.

"No, no, no. Apple pie taste way better than banana pie." Lisa objected.

"Look who's talking. Banana pie has more creamy taste than Apple. I mean how many people likes apple?" Linda also disagreed.

There wasn't a difference between Rebecca my sister and Linda. Always being tough with their words. Always being discipline with everyone's manner.

"I like apples." Rosa pipped in nonchalantly.

Exactly, that's what Roselina my sister would say. Roselina and Rosa had same quality. The nonchalance, not taking situation seriously, she's just there to support does who will definitely win an argument.

"Stop this tantrum girls. Both taste good, I work in the kitchen." Sonia tried to stop the stupid argument.

"On the true fact banana pie taste better." Sia supported Linda.

"Come on. Apple pie is very common and has a dignified taste." Lisa supported herself.
"Which side are you Rosa?" Lisa questioned her.

"None." Rosa replied care freely.

I told you.

"Sonia which side are you on?" Linda asked her.

"Both."
"They both taste good." She told them.

Today's tantrum is way better than three days ago. On that day they quarreled about who has nice boobs and sexy shape. After arguing for an hour they all landed on me, saying that I had a dignified shape of a woman and no one could comprehend it.

This girls are crazy, more like insane.

They finally faced me like zombies, staring down at me.

"What? Don't query me, I wanna sleep." I told them.

"Nah. Mrs. Lucy has arrived from her road trip and she has questioned to see yuh." Sia immediately alerted me.

"When did she send this message?"

They all chuckled nervously. "Like an hour ago." Rosa anxiously replied.

"Come on girls. Why tell me now?" I yelled trying not to be annoyed.

Do they all know how I'm trying not to get punished or bitten by vampires especially from royalties.

"We're sorry. Please hurry up, we'll explain to her if you get in any sign of trouble." Lisa panicked in guilt.

"Yeah. That's what I'll do, hurry to cover your asses. When I return you all need kicks, slap and punches." I told them an ran out of the room heading towards ma'am Lucy's room.

When I got there I gently knocked and I was ushered into her room closing the door bind me.

"Ma'am Lucy, I am very sorry, I can explain..." I started with an apology.

"Relax, Erica. The most important thing is that you're here." She replied with a cheesy smile.

Okay something is weird here. She got out a measuring tape and walked up to me, then she started measuring me and kept smiling.

"Erica you've got a very nice shape." She complimented.

"Ma'am I do appreciate." I replied as she would measure me and write it down on a book.

"You'll look beautiful for the Ball." Ma'am Lucy blurted out happily.

"Ball? Which Ball? I'm human, I can't attend vampire balls?" I declined her offer nicely.

But ma'am Lucy was a woman who doesn't take a no for an answer.

"Yeah, yeah whatever." She waved her hand in the air nonchalantly. Caring less of what I said.

She was finally done measuring me and smiled. "You're one beautiful lady with a beautiful heart. Steven won't let you out from his grip," she said smiling at me and staring into my eyes.

"I apologies to say, but there isn't a bound between a human and vampire species. It's an abomination." I told ma'am Lucy but she kept deaf ears replying with. "Oh quit that nonsense. You're perfect for my grandson." She loudly spoke.

She must be joking. Like literally joking. I want him dead not to be with him or have anything to do with him. This is all nonsense.

"Ma'am Lucy I got to go." I gently told her as she nodded her head immediately with a smile plastered on her pale face.

What's with this woman?

I turned and left her room heading to mine only to see Rosa.
But Rosa had fear written all over her face.

What's causing her fear? I immediately glanced around to see a guard who pushed her to the wall arrogantly and was pressing his body against her, he was touching her in a rude way and was trying to kiss her against her will.

This man was tough, I could see Rosa couldn't fight him back.
No one, I mean no one harms or touches my friend.

In seconds he slapped her across the face.
"Behave and let me taste you, stupid servant," the guard arrogantly said. I could recognise that voice but from where.

Where have I heard such arrogant and wicked voice from?

Out of anger I ran and pushed him away from Rosa with all my might as he stubbled back while I stood in front of Rosa, trying to protect her.

"What the hell." The guard caused.

When our eyes locked together, I could now fully know who the idiot was. Anger built in, unquenchable hatred filled my heart and mind, that familiar pain grew and the taste of revenge filled my blood and mind.

I was going to kill him, I will kill him for taking my blood sisters away from me. Leo I will kill you, make you pay for causing me internal pain.

Then he laughed. "Oh my goodness, if it isn't the slave princess." He spoke laughing out loud.

"So now she's looking different and have started socializing isn't it?" He questioned.

The more he talked, the more I wanted him dead, I just wanted him dead. My eyes was raging with anger.

"I was in the middle of my evening snack so step aside princess." He mocked me by emphasising on the word "princess".

"Erica please go. I don't want you to get hurt." Rosa begged.

This was exactly what Roselina would say, he took away my sister's, he won't take this one away from me.

"Human. I won't hesitate to drain your blood right here, right now." He threatened as his fang grew out and his eyes shimmers red.

On every pillars of this castle, there's always an armor standing beside it holding a sword.

I quickly grabbed the sword and waited for his attack.

"Erica, please stop." Rosa begged.

"Human I warn you again, step aside." He warned dreadfully but I didn't take a step as he charged towards me.

Out of angered I raised the sword to slice his head off but he dodged it, trying to land a blow on my abdomen.

I was infuriated. I used the sword to target his hand and kicked him on his stomach, he bounced back. I raised the sword to cut off his leg, he also dodged as I kicked him on the face. I kept striking at him giving him no space. I so badly wanted to chop his entire body off.

"I want you dead you MORON." I screamed out in rage as the death of my sisters flashed before my eyes.

He killed my pregnant sister Rebecca, I targeted his head once again but he jumped backwards.

For killing my sister Roselina, I targeted the sword to cut him into two but he dodged.

"I'm going to kill you," I swore with so much anger as I gave my last strike.

Out of fear he blocked the impact of the sword with his both arms. I pressed my sword deeper into his arms. I was going to chop him. Chop him into pieces.

Since he was delaying me, I kicked him on his stomach, making him stumble in fear.

"Stay away from me, you stupid human." He warned in fear.

"You took them away from me. All of them. You and your king." I yelled as the death of my sisters and father flashed before my eyes ones again continously.

I was going to make especially him pay. I raised my sword to cut off his legs but he jumped avoiding the attack while I kicked him once again In his abdomen making him fall.

"Stop your nonsense woman." He kept warning me in fear as he crawled away from me.

"I'll make you pay, I'll wipe you from the surface of this earth." I swore raising my sword to kill the idiot but someone held me through my waist stopping me from landing my finally strike.

"I want to kill him, let me go, let me go." I struggled angrily within the warm arms of the man.

"Erica relax, calm down. Relax," the soothing voice said, pecking me on the cheek but the raging anger didn't let me.

"Sire kill her, kill her, She wants a general like me dead." Leo panicked.

I kept struggling. "The person who will die here is you." I swore trying so hard to struggle out from Sire's soft but firm hold.

No one gets in my way, when I want to kill my target. Out of anger I elbowed him in his right eye as he let me go.

It then down on me I just elbowed Steven's eye. I turned around to see his right eye bleeding and I dropped my sword as my eyes rolled back to normal.

His presence made me relax a little. What's this stupid feeling?

"Erica please relax, don't kill yet." He warmly said holding my both hands even though his right eye was bleeding.

I snapped my hands from his warm hold and pushed him backwards and pushed him again.

"If you ever stop me again. I'll stab you in the guts." I told him and walked off as he stared at me with a gloomy expression.

Rosa immediately apologised and ran to keep up with me

Beware Leo, I'll come after you. You must die. If not now, then later. I'll show no mercy.

🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

Oh my. Erica was in another level.

Yeah, you might all say, she's strong hearted than Steven.

But put you legs in her shoes.
How would it feel like, when your family was murdered in cold blood and your murderer is standing in front of yuh.

I'll make sure I also eliminate that person.

But relax, give it time, Erica would soften.
Growing up without a mother's love was hard for her.

Thanks for reading 😅
