y office.

He was sitting at his desk going over the clan’s financial records when Mayel, his beta, linked him. He bared his teeth and growled at his empty

“WHATT

“Sire, there is a man here, requesting a meeting with you.”

He growled again. Fine. See him in. I could use a break from this disaster.

He sat back in his chair, waiting for his guest. The beta knocked on the door before opening it. He led a scrawny–looking man with thick wire–rimmed glasses into his office. The man took a prat in front of the desk. Luis studied the man curiously.

“Who are you? And what in the hell do you want?”

The man smirked. “I am Loatie and I am here to solve all of your problems,”

Luis folded his arms across his chest. “And what problem do you think you can solve for me?

Loatie leaned back in his chair, chuckling. “I hear you have taken an infant into your home,” he said as he glanced around with a withering look. “I would like to take her off your hands.”

Luis raised an eyebrow at him. “Why?”

“Because I-”

The door burst open and King Sterling strolled in with his little brat behind him, cutting him off.

“Dad?”

“Luis, where’s the infant?”

The little asshole’s eyes widened before he broke into a smile. Hmmm. This child had to be important indeed if people wanted her.

“The infant?”

“Yes. The one you took in.”

He glanced at his beta, reaching for his link as he stood up.

“Did L do what I asked him to do?”

“Yes, Sire.”

“They didn’t tell you? I sent a message to Deegan yesterday.”

“What did it say?”

He glanced at the newcomer who was watching the exchange with a smirk on his face. “Excuse us, Loatie, for a moment, please. My beta will escort to the living room.” He followed Moyel out of the room angrily, “I beg you for your forgiveness, Sire. The infant is gone,”

The king narrowed his eyes on him. “Where is she? We will go collect her from wherever she is.

He nervously cleared his throat. “You misunderstand, Your Majesty. She is deceased. She was found dead in her crib yesterday morning.”

His eyes snapped down to glare at the little bastard who had the balls to growl at him in his castle on his own fucking land. How dare he? Why he

“We do not know, Sire. Humans are very fragile.”

My Tortured Mate Chapter 4

The boy jumped at him as his hands shifted into his claws. He swiped at him when his father caught hi midain. It took everything in Luis not to snap the child’s neck for trying to attack him. One day, he would teach the prick a fucking lesson.

“LIAR! YOU’RE LYING WHERE IS SHE?”

He took a deep breath as the king knelt in front of his son with his hands on his shoulders.

“Son, if she’s

passed on, there is nothing we can do,” he told him sadly.

“She’s not gone, Dad I know she’s not.

“I can take you to where her body is.” Luis offered, taking great pleasure in the way the boy’s eyes lit up eagerly.

He suddenly bared his teeth at Luis. “Yes. Do that. I don’t believe you. She’s not gone.”

He walked over to the door and opened it for them. This way, Your Majesties.”

King Sterling followed his son out and Luis clenched his jaw. He was going to take great joy in breaking this little asshole’s heart. He wasn’t sure why the bitch was so important to these men but maybe he could use her to get more power if the royal family was after her. He was going to have to really think about what he wanted to do. He needed to find out what Loatie was first.

“What is this place? It’s too cold for a baby”

Luis glared down at the boy again as he turned the doorknob to the room they kept their dead in. “This is our morgue. Prince Lukas.”

He shoved Luis out of the way and ran in. His father followed him in before glancing over his shoulder.

“Where is she?”

Luis moved past them to pull out a tray inside the refrigerated wall. A small, covered lay still on it. Luis lifted the corpse up and moved it to the table in the middle of the room before yanking the cloth off of it. Lukas whimpered and reached out to her. His hand roamed over the girl for a moment before he glared up at Luis with tears in his eyes.

“This isn’t her. Where is she?”

King Sterling put his hands back on his son’s shoulders. “Son, you have to let her go. She’s gone. She’s lying right in front of you.”

He pulled away and flipped the table. The corpse went flying as he grabbed a scalpel. He lunged at Luis again, this time slicing his arm with the blade.

“WHERE IS SHE?,” he yelled.

The king picked his son up, restraining him from swinging again. Luis grabbed a towel and put it over his bleeding arm.

“Lukas, that’s enough. Sleep!”

The

e amount of aura that was forced out to make the boy comply almost brought Luis to the floor. King Sterling shifted the boy in his arms.

“I do apologize for his behavior, Luis. He feels the need to protect habies since he lost his sisters.”

“It’s fine, Your Majesty,” he said, gritting his teeth.

He walked out of the room and Sterling trailed behind him. He led him up to the foyer where the king said his goodbyes and left. Luis waited for the portal to close before going into the living room to get Loatie. He leaned against the doorfranse.

“You can’t have the girl but I’m sure we can come to an arrangement.”

He stood up. “I want to see her before we discuss any arrangements.”

“Follow me.”

He led Loatie out of the castle, heading towards his gammas house.

“So, what are you?”

My Tortured Mate Chapter 4

He glanced at Luis. “A vampire.”

Luis raised an eyebrow at him. “And what would a vampire want with an infant?”

Loatie smiled coldly. “They taste the best”

Luis laughed as he knocked on the door, opening it immediately to stroll inside like he owned the place. Lucifer chuckled.

“Because we do.”

Luis smirked. “Where’s the bastard?”

Lonna looked up him. Your Majesty. Preston

He waved his hand furiously. “Not him. The bastard child.”

“Oh. She’s through here.”

She led them into a small nursery and picked the baby up. She held it to him and he rolled his

is eyes, scoffing. He pointed at Loatie.

wanted to see it

She brought the baby to her chest. “Sire, she is okay here. Please, don’t send ber away.”

Luis ripped it from her arms and shoved it into Loatie’s. “It’s not your choice!,” he hissed.

Loatie lifted the blankets to his face and inhaled deeply, “Oh, you smell delicious

“He wants her for more than food,” Lucifer whispered in his head.

“I know and the prince wants her, too!

“Do you think she is his mate?‘

Lucifer growled. “Watch your mouth. The Goddess would not do that to us. He will give us a strong queen.”

Luis burst out laughing, startling Lonna. He snatched it from Loatic and tossed it back to Lonna.

“You can’t have it. I haven’t decided what I’m doing with it yet. You can get off my land.”

Loatie bared his fangs at him. “You will regret this.”

Luis folded his arms across his chest as Loatic stormed out of the small house. He turned back to Lonna.

“Guard that little bitch with your life.” He grinned evilly as his hand shot out to wrap around her throat and pull her close to him. “Or I would be more than happy to take you as a sex slave,” he threatened as he ground against her.

She clung to the unwanted creature in her arms as tears rolled down her face. “Yes, Sire.”
