Be Careful When You Bite Me

But I didn’t say that, instead I blushed red and mumbled,” I’m sorry.”

“That’s ok,” she reassured,” and yes, the King has a very strict law in place for the Cold Ones and it is that they cannot rule if they do not mate with a fellow Cold One.”

“Does that mean that Xavier is shunned-“

“He lost his royalty status, but they cannot take it away royalty from his blood.”

“And Damon is scared-“

“Damon is scared because he had already witness the dethronement of his brother, he doesn’t want to have to be next.”

“I know it isn’t my fault but I can’t help but feel bad, like I am to blame for whats happening with him.”

She smiled sadly,” it will all be ok soon.”

“Do you mean that,” I asked, almost afraid of the answer,” did you see that it was going to be alright with me, will I get to go home and forget this ever happened?”

She remained silent for a couple of seconds before softly saying,” eat some more.”

I sighed and obeyed silently.

After some time I decided to ask the question that I had been most curious about,” What’s the Mark of Eros?”

“I was waiting for you to ask.”

“Luna said I had it, it’s why she couldn’t do the ritual, apparently she would be upsetting the Council, is that the King and Queen?”

“The King and Queen rule only the Cold Ones. Every creature in the underworld has a ruler, expect for shapeshifters, warlock and witches.”

I remembered the security guard at the bar Damon had taken me too and wondered if he had been a shapeshifter.

I merely nodded and she continued,” the Council rule everyone in the Underworld whether it’s vampire, werewolf, faerie, witch, shapeshifter or warlock. They consist of 6 people , one from each race of Underworld species. They are the eldest in their race and they control the entirety of The Underworld.”

“I don’t understand why they would care about someone like me losing her memory, shouldn’t they be happy?”
