LOGINUnlike him, he had been making many spontaneous decisions lately, he didn’t know of it was a good thing. He stared at the girl that sat across from him. She looked thinner than when he had last seen her. She was visibly shaken by the incident she had just witnessed. She was lucky she had passed out when he had attacked her kingdom, he thought to himself.
Shortly afterwards Gwen entered the room. His eyes met hers and he smiled in appreciation, “Thank you so much Gwen".
She briefly nodded, she dropped the clothes she held in her hands on the bed and turned to face him, “The maid you asked for is outside, she is one of the new recruits".
“That's nice Gwendoline please let her in".
Gwendoline opened the door and after a short while, a red head peeped through looking terrified. Gwen glared at her, “Just come in already Cecily!”.
Cecily quickened her pace, when she was a few yards from them she bowed, “Mi lord, Mi lady'.
Gwen took that as her cue to leave she flashed Alessandro a smile that didn’t quite reach her eyes he sighed inwardly as he remembered how their steamy session had been cut short because of Kieran’s news. He had to make it up to her, he thought to himself.
“You’ll be my pet’s help”, he frowned slightly as the words left his mouth, “Usually pets don’t get these favours, but she’s royalty and has little to no knowledge about Isles. She will need some time to get used to her new life".
Cecily nodded in understanding, “What would you like me to do for her sire?”.
“For now all I want is for you to get her cleaned up, I’ll come get her when you’re done", with that he left the room leaving the women alone.
When Alessandro closed the door after him, Isabella turned to Cecily, “How will be know when we are done?”.
Cecily’s eyes darted across the room like she was considering answering the question or not. After a moment she whispered quietly, “They know everything”.
☆ ☆ ☆
Alessandro walked in as soon as Cecily helped Isabella into her sandals, a look of shock was on her face but she masked it immediately. She looked a bit composed than she was when she first got here.
“I will show you the kitchen”, he spoke first.
She curtly nodded and followed him out quietly, she was still pretty shaken up by the violence she had witnessed. He had no apologies or regrets whatsoever, it was who he was.
The walked through many hallways, everyone who met them on their way bowed slightly.
“Is it just me or does everyone in your kingdom look pale?”.
Isabella could not deny the fact that her conversation with Gwen rattled her. As the days had passed a small part of her had hoped he saw her in a different light.Overtime she had begun to feel things for him, when she wasn't focused on the fact that he had killed her parents she was beginning to see the little things about him that she found cute.She tried to wave them off but she felt bad. She didn’t want to attend any ball that would demean her not like she had a choice and she knew she couldn’t confront Alessandro. He made her feel so uneasy in so many ways and that left one option Aunt Marie.Which was why she was in kitchen playing with her food and looking for a comfortable outlet to share her fears with Marie. However Marie made it harder as she was walking about, ordering the servants in preparation for the evening.Isabella took a slice of pie and blurted out, “What does it mean to be a vampi
Gwendoline had made up her mind to confront Alessandro today, it had been a while since they had any meaningful conversation or spent time together. It seemed he was getting so engrossed in his duties not to leave out the frail human that had managed to take up all his time.When he wasn’t attending to one of her numerous needs, she was trailing behind him anywhere like a lap dog. Kieran sat across from him, while Isabella was at the far end of the room a book in her hand. She groaned in frustration, now she had two assholes to deal with".“Alessandro?”.“Gwendoline what do I owe this pleasure?”, he asked. She sighed his replies were now formal.“I need to talk to you Alessandro. It’s very important and I want to talk in private”.Kieran snorted

She had resumed eating in the kitchen with Marie and the other staffs. It was quite obvious she wasn’t a guest here but a prisoner so she decided to do well to stay in her limits.She flipped the pages of the book that Marie had lent her to read, she was bored of staying indoors all day alone by herself.Alessandro walked in with Cecily and another lady. Isabella’s eyes stared fixatedly on Alessandro he was nothing like the prim and proper prince that she knew. His dark long hair was let loose and it draped against his shoulders. He was in casual clothing, nothing like his usual royal regalia. He looked almost normal until he flashed his fangs.“It seems like you’re already adjusting to life here”, he remarked, “Well that’s good since you will be my escort to the ball of a lifetime, he came to sit besides her on the couch, she moved away

Isabella sat in the dining room with King Alessandro and Kieran. After her and Alessandro’s conversation in the past week, things between them had been different, they had been able to come to a mutual understanding.She could never understand why there were wars and killings, she didn’t know why her father had killed the queen, thinking about it clearly she realised she didn’t know him well. She couldn’t justify Alessandro’s actions, many innocent lives were put on the line for him to achieve his revenge.However she fully understood the reason why he did what he did. She would have done the same if she was in his place. She hadn’t forgiven him but she knew plotting her escape was impossible. She had just two options, live this new life or as she hoped one day be whisked away from this life.Her breakfast of Cinnamon rolls and hot chocolate was placed before her. The king chose that moment to walk in, he quickly spotted
