Chapter 100 - The Sinful Temptation

"Lucia, bring me some blood." 

Braille Matteo entered in her luxurious mansion stomping her foot heavily as she dashed towards the lounge, which was on the right side. 

Her rich taste and sense of interior decoration was flashing through the modern furniture and the style she had given to her mansion. The double door of the manor was dipped into the dark shades of chocolate brown, the little fountain that was in the shape of huge hollow Chinese dragon, with shiny scales which were carved neatly was puking out the clear water from its opened screaming mouth. It was built opposite to the main door and a red carpet was laying to lead every visitor up to the fountain.

"Lucia, will you show up? Or else you are planning to dehydrate me?"

Braille yelled on the top of her lungs as her eyes were stitched to the glass door of the lounge which was left ajar. She was plopped into the leather sofa while tucking her back and throwing her head back in agitation, her right hand crept on the forehead.

Braille had returned from Sinclair's conglomerate, after the lord kicked her out and both had a rash arguement. 

"Damn you Lucia! Where you have died?"

Braille stood up in a fit, her eyes turned dark and flashed red. The lady's ire was rising with every passing second, she growled as her sharp fangs grew in their original length. 

"Ugh! My head is spinning."

The lady felt a sudden wave of pain in her head, as if someone or some powerful force was around her that was tampering with her mind, trying to get into her thoughts. The pangs were getting severe as the excruciating pain forced her to crouch down onto the floor with a loud thump, as her bare knees touched the ground.

"Hello! Young princess Braille!"

A coarse voice greeted her that resonated in the empty room, and sounded evil. Braille peeked through her eyes which were scrunched shut earlier, it was becoming unbearable for her that she was sitting on the ground holding her head with both hands.

As soon as a black smoke started to appear in the room that coiled into a spiral form, from which a man appeared in her sight. Braille couldn't handle it anymore, it became confirmed to her that the man was the reason but why was he deliberately tampering with her head. She plunged forward towards the man with an attack  intended on his shoulder, her painted nails grew longer in unusual length as took the initiative to rip the root cause of her headache. 

"Oh! The heiress to the Vampire throne is a wild beast! "

The man stopped her attack with ease as he raised his hand up in the air towards her direction which made Braille to strangle into the air. The mysterious intruder lifted her up a little higher but his hands never touched her, as if he was playing tricks with his mind and gave her a swing around.

"Tsk! How will you handle the heavy crown while behaving like this, my lady?"

The man glanced at her appearance which became unkempt by now as she collided with the wall behind her. He spat venomously at her as his eyes landed into her unusually long spike like nails, which shrank to normal. 

"Ughhh! W-who are you? You devil! What you want from me?"

Braille winced in pain because the man was successfully invading her mind and now her body was in his control too, that her nails were forcefully shrank back into the flesh. 

Just then a portal appeared in the lounge where she was actually frozen under the man's gaze, two people emerged from the other side, draped in black skin fit dressing that resembled the code dressing of ninjas. Braille's face  became creased with suspicion. She wanted to get up to beat their asses off and to threw them back into the portal from which they emerged but her ears pricked upon the forceful man's words!

"I have got a great offer for you, young princess."

The man waved to the other two, who seemed to be his slaves, they followed his gesture and strode towards Braille whose body was frozen under his casted spell.

She wanted to thump her feet to showcase her anger upon their intrusion and rude behaviour but all she could do was to move her mouth.

"What offer? Who are you?"

She spat annoyingly at him, a hunch assured her that the man was seemingly evil, as a dangerous aura was radiating from his black dressing and furry Cape that was fully made of some wolf's skin, which clicked to her mind would be hellhounds.

The man was medium heighted yet his imposing aura was covering up his physical lacking, he marred his black gems onto those slaves who nodded and understood the situation of meeting. One of them walked up to the entrance of the lounge and thud shut the door. 

He intended to welcome all the questions which were continuously doing hum and buzz within Braille's mind. The seemed a little older to her as she was throwing spades of anger at him when he strode and sat elegantly on the sofa, with a royal like gesture as he flung his Cape a little before plopping. Braille scoffed at his show off as he leaned back, and rested one of his arms high above his knee. The two slaves stood besides him obediently while the crowned vampire runaway princess was crouched in his foot.

"Would you answer me? I'm asking you something, you deaf!"

The man was becoming unbearable for Braille, neither he was answering her nor he was willing to free her from the spell. The mysterious man acknowledged her feisty and rational behaviour so he couldn't afford to set her free to attack him.

"I know Miss Braille, that why you are here in human Realm and what secret you are keeping. Why the only princess of Vampire kingdom ran away from her home leaving everything behind her, but don't worry your secret is SAFE with me."

He stressed upon 'safe' with a stern yet evil look, while narrowing his eyes. Braille got the whole idea that he came to meet her for some specific reason and if she didn't do it, he will tell on her and inform about her whereabouts. 

"How do you know? Who are you and what you want from me? Just spill it!"

She questioned the same for the third time, the man stood up immediately which caused an unknown fear in her veins as something unusual snaked in the deepest layer of her skin.

"It shouldn't matter to you, who I am rather the offer I have got for you."

The man rattled his jean's and fished out a cigarette and lighter, he lit his cigar and with devilish aims sparkling in his eyes he looked at her.

"What k-kind of offer?"

Braille sputtered in between the words, she was expecting something like that. But the questioned remained there at the back of her head that why he was offering her something.

"You will get nothing by going with such tricks, Sinclair wouldn't cast a look at you. I believe you wouldn't want to be a generous lady to let your man find home in someone else's arms. Even if you are willing to let him slide it won't give you a reward, nothing at all."

"Then what should I do? He doesn't even bear me close to him. Do you have anything, what do you have to offer me as a help?"

The man became successful in provoking the naive woman within her, who was already mad in love with Sinclair. She questioned him with a penetrating stare as moisture began to form into her eyes.

"What if you marry the emperor of Spirit Realm instead of his actual mate?" 

He narrated his plan to her, calmly exhaling the puff of smoke.

"Wh-what? Are you able to do it? Is it even possible?"

She became stunned with eyes wide open. Probably, she thought for a split second that the man was insane or a maniac.

"It is possible, my dear Braille! You can get married to King Sinclair  on behalf of his actual bride, Syna Rhys." 

The man was sure that Braille would agree at once without hesitation, and would do as he wanted.

"How? I'm a vampire princess Sinclair would sense my aura and powers at once while his bride is a human, her living force is the only thing he can sense!"

Braille questioned him not being able to believe his words, it seemed impossible to disguise as Syna because the auras of supernatural beings could be sensed from miles.

"You will take place of Syna in his life, everything will stay the same as before, it's only the bride who will be changed. You don't have to worry about suppressing your powers no one would know what actually happened. "

He said releasing another puff, as if it was an easy peasy task to attempt such a conspiracy. 

"But how is it possible?"

Braille wanted to confirm that the man wasn't toying with her, instead he sure had something up in his sleeves.

"So, do you agree?"

His smile was evil as he got amused with her eagerness and excitement to do such a terrible thing that would alter the fates of the duo again.

"Well if it would be safe and the results are guaranteed."

Braille responded to him with a lopsided grin.

"Good then. I will come back with the solution and your task. I believe you can ensure the secrecy of this wonderful meeting,  Miss Braille."

Braille nodded in yes as the man freed her body from his spell while she kept on staring at those mysteries men. The master stood up to settle his cape and moved towards the door of the lounge to take an exit, and left with a grin Striding out of the main door. It was still a question who he was and why he offered help to Braille. Moreover, why these supernatural beings often forget that they could use teleportation.

"My lord, do you think we can trust this woman?"

The partner, one of the slaves daringly questioned who was actually a woman dressed in male clothes.

The man answered her with an evil grin.

"Of course! These vampires have unstable emotions and can do anything for their beloved, even if it's a foul doing!" 

The portal opened outside Braille's house and they both stepped in.

The man knew about the mate bonds as he searched about the  hidden things in that forbidden library of Witchcraft and black magic, and acknowledged the fact that if Braille got married to Sinclair the mighty lord will die and Syna would eventually follow him to the other world. 

Although Braille, as belonging to other kingdom and specie didn't know a thing about what horrible sin she was going to commit, to which she referred to as love.
