Chapter 14
Angel
Angel remained quiet in the truck as she was driven to meet a Fae. She had heard stories of the powerful Fae. She was literally bouncing on the inside at her excitement. She couldn’t believe that she was about to meet a magical creature from another realm, and he was going to help her.
She was still in shock at the fact that the necromancers had siphoned some of her energy, but then, she wasn’t too surprised. She would have at least thought she would have felt as if a part of her was missing. The first few months after she was turned was a blur for her; she barely remembered anything. But, according to what she was taught, it was like that for all neophytes, or new vampires.
She glanced out the window, watching the downtown scenery fly by. Angel thought it was strange that they were in the middle of downtown, pulling up to an expensive high-rise condo building. She strained her neck to look up at the building from her perch in the truck. She knew the area well, and knew that this was a very exclusive building, a place she would never be able to afford even a cup of coffee in from the coffee shop in the lobby, much less live in.
“We’re here,” Viktor said, parking the truck in the valet section. A couple of valets ran out to the truck to open their doors. Angel got out, and instantly felt out of place as the valets scrambled, once they saw Adrian. Adrian came around to her side to grab her hand, and pulled her along behind him.
“Stop it,” he muttered.
“Stop what?” she asked, confused, as the building’s double doors opened automatically.
“Thinking that you’re beneath me,” he said. He pulled her closer as they walked through the lobby. All the vampires nodded their heads to acknowledge their prince, while the humans curiously looked at them, wondering who he was.
“Are you reading my mind or something?” she questioned, as Viktor hit the call button for the elevator.
“I don’t read minds, and even if I did, I wouldn’t have to because it’s written all over your face,” he acknowledged. She looked up at him and saw the sincerity of what he said. “You are mated to a prince, and you, my dear, are now a princess. Get used to it.”
The elevator doors opened, and Adrian motioned for her to enter first. Once inside, Viktor informed the attendant of their destination.
“The penthouse,” Viktor said, positioning himself in front of the door as it closed. She could tell that he was always ready for combat. His stance in front of the door let Angel know that he was ensuring that no one would enter the elevator.
“Yes, sir,” the elevator attendant said before hitting the correct button. Her eyes widened, as she had never been in a building that had to have someone stationed in the elevator just to hit the buttons for the guests.
“Will he know what to do with me?” Angel whispered, holding tight to Adrian’s arm.
