CHAPTER XIV

Betrayal is Bittersweet

THE NIGHT FELT LIKE AN ETERNITY in the company of my love for Amphis. We made love until dawn where our bodies laid drained in bed, and I watched her eyes close as she fell into a deep sleep. The sun crept above the ocean’s horizon and the faint light caught my eye as I gazed upon it, still feeling the energy of Amphis’ life force surging in my veins. My heart eased with the warmth on my face and the breeze of the ocean freshened the air with a scent of salt. The sound of the waves, crashing below was like a lullaby to my ears, sending me into a blissful sleep.

While in my dreams I could feel Amphis’ soft angelic touch on my face and I could hear her sweet words whisper something in my ear, but I was too exhausted to wake up from my sleep. Something relaxed my body in my dreams as I gazed upon myself sitting on my mother’s throne in the darkness. Two large hounds sat on each side of me with fiery red eyes. Amphis was in all black sitting between my legs on the floor and her head laid back against me. The shadows of our aura radiated black around us and the hounds howled. Amphis is our queen.

Suddenly I awoke from my dream still hearing the howls echo in my mind. I reached out and searched for Amphis, but her side of the bed was empty. My body appeared normal again and back to its usual self, which meant the euphoria from last night's feed had worn off.

Yuna strolled into my chambers with a grin on her face. “Good morning, milady.”

“Ummm... Good morning.” I stretched in the bed and sat up. “How was the rest of the party last night?”

“When you left nothing much happened,” Yuna answered. “Your cousins were intoxicated and flirting with the guests most of the night. I’m sure they took them to camp this morning.”

“What about you Yuna,” I asked. “Any companion for the night?”

She had a playful smirk. “No one really,” she replied.

“I saw my cousin catching glimpses of you all bashful like she couldn’t find the courage to just ask you for a dance,” I stated sarcastically.

“Calipee…. Humm.” She paused while checking on my wound, which had healed more since yesterday and the black veins disappeared slightly. “I actually found her rather adorable for my taste.”
