Reincarnations of Annaleah

Ava's POV.

I sat down in my cage, looking around as the pet store master lashed out on one of the humans in the pet store.

I had so much hatred for vampires at this point. They took me away from my family.

"Take your food, you filthy human!" The pet store master said, as he threw my food on the ground.

I looked at the food and kicked it away. I was tired of being locked up in a cage and treated like a slave.

"You ungrateful brat! Do you know how many stray humans are out there who are willing to give their all for this food?"

I looked away so that he'd see how much I didn't care.

"You've been so much trouble since you came here!"

"I am sick and tired of vampires. You vampires think you can do anything you want to humans." He raised up his hand, in an attempt to hit me with his whip.

"Do it! Isn't that all you know how to do? Beat humans up."

"You're lucky pet store masters aren't allowed to feast off the pets they're selling."

"I'm not afraid of you."

He didn't spare me after those words. He hit me several times and counting with that whip.

I was getting immune to his whip because there was no day I wasn't hit by him.

He finally ran out of energy and turned to walk away.

"Is that all you've got?" I asked, trying to intimidate him.

He raised his hand again, but this time I didn't want him to win. I grabbed the whip and pulled it, making him crash into the cage.

The other humans began to whisper around. I wasn't scared of vampires, neither was I scared of death.

He got up and walked away in shame, leaving me as proud as a peacock.

"How did you do that?" Cornelia asked.

She was also a pet in the store. We became friends since we were put in cages beside each other.

"I don't know, I guess I was just sick and tired of being bullied." I said, as I turned to see who had just entered the shop.

They were two female vampires.

"I hope we don't get picked." Cornelia whispered.

"What did you say?" One of them said, as they both came closer to her cage.

"I-I didn't say anything." She stuttered.

"Don't forget we're vampires. We can basically hear the tiniest sounds from a mile away." The other vampire said.

"How can I help you beautiful ladies today?" The pet store master asked.

"We'd like her." One of the vampires said, pointing to Cornelia.

"She didn't want to be picked, so we're picking her." I had to do something.

"I said it!" I lied, in an attempt to help her.

"Don't try to be a hero, we're not dumb. Besides, you're too skinny anyway." One said.

The pet store master put a collar around her neck, connected it to a leash and pulled her out of the cage.

"Noo!"

"Do you have a problem with that?"

"Yes, I do. You can't take her away!"

"And what can you do if I did?"

"I'll find you and kill you!"

"You filthy pig! You're just lucky there's a law protecting you, if not for that, I would have torn you into pieces! Neither do I want to buy you and kill you. That will be a waste of my money." she said.

"You better discipline this human." The other vampire said.

"I will." The pet store master said as he handed the leash over to the vampires.

Cornelia was gone and I had no one else.

I didn't realise I was tearing up till a stream of tears landed on the corner of my lips. In sadness, I crawled up into a ball in order to sleep. It was the only way I could escape from reality.

I woke up on hearing the door open. It was another vampire. It seemed to be a man, but it was night, so it was hard to see.

He walked into the light and his eyes landed on mine. He was the most handsome vampire I had ever seen.

I watched how his jawline was defined with his hair creeping down his face. He carried a cold look.

For some reason, I hadn't realised how long my eyes were locked with his. Quickly, I bowed down my head, hoping he won't come near me.

"How can I help you, my prince?" The pet store master said.

Prince?

I had heard stories about the prince, but I had never seen him before. I heard about how he was impatient and showed no form of clemency.

My heart began to race at those thoughts. A pair of feet landed right in front of my cage. They were his. I was too scared to look up.

"Let me see your face." He said. He spoke a little too calm for someone of his nature, yet I didn't want to let my guard down. I had to remind myself he was still a vampire.

"Didn't you hear what he said? I'm sorry, my prince, let me handle this." The pet store master said, as he picked out his whip.

"What do you think you're doing?" He asked.

"Making her obey."

"I'm taking her."

My heart began to race even more than before.

"I'm not going." I said.

"Don't try to act brave. I heard how fast your heart was beating when I said I was going to take you. You have no say in this." He replied.

"I said I'm not going." I said again.

"You see what I said. She's bad news, my prince. Look around, there are other humans. This one is just full of problems, and you'll have no peace." The pet store master said.

"I don't want peace. I want problems. Always." He quipped.

"Her mind is not sane." He said.

"I'm beyond insane."

"But my pr-"

"My answer is final." He said, cutting him off.

He put a collar around my neck and connected it with a leash. The prince made all the necessary payments, and took the leash. He tugged at the leash, as I reluctantly followed him to his car.

After shoving me into the backseat, he tied the leash to the front seat and he drove us away.

He pulled up at a very huge castle.

Two guards came out of nowhere to help him. "Don't touch her. She's mine." He snarled.

"All the guards and workers should meet me in my room in a minute." He said, as he tugged onto the leash and dragged me to his room.

His room was really huge and fit for a prince like him. In less than a second, there was a knock at the door.

"Come in." He scoffed.

Dozens of vampires entered the room.

"You called for us, my prince."

"This is my new pet. I don't want any of you to touch her, and I mean it. I haven't marked her as mine yet, but I don't care.

As you all know, I don't share. The moment I find a bite on her that's not from me, all your heads will be cut off - including the innocent ones. I don't care how thirsty you are on the full moon when you see her pass by.

Also, I don't want to hear any stories about how my other pet died because I don't care about her anymore. Understood?"

"Yes, my prince." They all said in unison.

"Now get out." They all scrambled out of the room like their lives depended on it.

"Follow me." He says sternly. He pulled me into the bathroom.

"Take everything off."

No man had never seen my nakedness, neither was I going to allow him to see.

"I'd rather you gave me some privacy."

He moved closer to me and I could feel some tension, but it was ephemeral when he grabbed hold of my neck with so much anger.

"You belong to me and I won't tolerate any form of disrespect from you. The fact that I let what you did in the pet store slide doesn't mean I'm going to condone this kind of behaviour.

I have no interest in a human, much less you. Now take them off!" He said, pushing me into the tub.

I had no choice than to take them off. I was gifted with bountiful curves and very sizable assets which I was proud of.

His eyes traced every movement I made making me feel so insecure. I don't know why what he thought of my body mattered to me. Finally, I took them off, making him take a long stare at my body.

I crossed my arms over my chest to prevent him from seeing my breasts. I heard him chuckle at the sight of that.

"What are you doing? Put your hands down."

I kept my hands there, paying no heed to what he said nor the warning he made earlier on.

"It seems you have a short memory, so you have forgotten the warning I just gave you." He grabbed my neck and squeezed it a bit tighter that before.

I realized I was going by the minute. Everything couldn't end like this? I hadn't yet experienced life. He let go off my neck and I fell into the tub with a loud thump. I quickly got up and put my hands down.

"Better."

He put on the shower and began to rub some soap in my hair. I couldn't believe the prince could be so gentle.

His hands were an anodyne. He placed the soap in my hands and allowed me to rub it all over my body.

I flinched as the soap touched my skin. I had scars everywhere.

"You were that stubborn to receive all those scars huh?"

I looked down in shame. He put on the shower and began to wash me off.

I watched how the water exposed my skin after being hidden by dried blood and dirt. My skin had become a little too pale. He took me out of the bathtub and allowed me to dry myself with a towel.

I stood in front of the mirror counting the number of scars I had on my back and arms. Most of them were unhealed. Now to the one place I was scared to look, my face, I watched how horrible I had become.

"You haven't seen your face in a while huh?" He said interrupting my moment.

"What's your name?" He asked, looking right into my eyes.

Anytime he did that, my heart did nothing than to beat faster.

"C-Call me Ava."

"I'm happy you're scared of me Ava and you should be, if you know what's best for you." He said, still looking in my eyes.

I totally forgot I was still naked. I didn't have any clothes.

"Here take these. They belonged to my other pet."

I wonder what happened to her, there's no doubt he killed her like how he's going to kill me. The clothes he gave me fit perfectly well.

"I'm not going to feed on you now because you're hurt all over.

Lest you forget, I'm not being merciful, I just don't want to kill you after the first time I feed on you. Understood?"

"Yes."

"I'm your master not your friend."

"Yes, master."

"Good, you can sleep on the cloth over there." I hurried over to the cloth on the ground and laid on it. He had a soft spot but tried to hide it.

As long as I'm not going to be killed anytime soon, I'm okay.

Ronin's POV."

You're so incompetent. You couldn't even take care of a useless human, how much more the whole kingdom. All you know is to kill and look frightening."

They were embedded into my hippocampus so deep that I could never forget. These were the words of my father after he heard of the death of my pet. I hated those filthy humans. I don't know why he kept insisting on me having a pet. She was my sixth pet.

"Guard the new pet you're going to buy today with your life." Another thing said by my father that kept on ringing in my head.

I stepped on the accelerator and increased my speed. This vampire can't possibly bear the weight of the whole kingdom on his shoulders. Of course, when it came to the killing aspect, I could help.

I pulled over to the pet shop and entered. The first thing that greeted me was the scent of blood. I could smell fear, my favourite scent. All but one of the hearts in the store began to beat faster. It was beating at a normal pace.

Who is this human that is not afraid?

It was coming from a tiny girl whose eyes were also fixed on me. This was the type of pet I was looking for, a brave one.

"How can I help you, my prince?" The psychopath who ran the store said. I walked up to her cage and her heart began to beat faster as she saw my feet right in front of her cage. That's when a certain aura from her blew off onto me. Like a wave of power.

"Let me see your face."

"Didn't you hear what he said? I'm sorry, my prince, let me handle this." The psychopath said, as he picked out his whip.

"What do you think you're doing?"

"Making her obey."

"I'm taking her."

"I'm not going." she said. Intransigence. Music to my ears.

"Don't try to act brave. I heard how fast your heart was beating when I said I was going to take you. You have no say in this." "I said I'm not going.""You see what I said. She's bad news, my prince. Look around, there are other humans. This one is just full of problems, and you'll have no peace." The lunatic said.

"I don't want peace. I want problems. Always." I quipped.

"Her mind is not sane." He said again.

"I'm beyond insane."

"But my pr-" "My answer is final." I said, cutting him off.

That guy really needed to be changed. He fixed a collar on her neck and connected the leash. After making all the necessary requirements, I shoved her into the car and headed for the castle. The slaves moved closer to the car upon my arrival to help me with her.

"Don't touch her. She's mine." I snarled.

"All the guards and workers should meet me in my room in a minute." I said as I tugged onto the leash and dragged her to my room. Within less than a second, there was a knock at the door.

"Come in."

"You called for us, my prince."

"This is my new pet. I don't want any of you to touch her, and I mean it. I haven't marked her as mine yet, but I don't care. As you all know, I don't share. The moment I find a bite on her that's not from me, I'll thrust a stake in your hearts-including the innocent ones, and I mean it. I don't care how thirsty you are on the full moon when you see her pass by.

Also I don't want to hear any stories about how my other pet died because I don't care about her anymore. Understood?"

"Yes, my prince." They all say in unison.

"Now get out." They all scrambled out of the room. Lazy fools.

"Follow me." I said sternly, pulled her into the bathroom and took off the collar and leash.

"Take everything off." I said.

"I'd rather you gave me some privacy." A wave of power ran through me as I got closer. I grabbed her tiny neck and began to choke her to death.

"You belong to me, and I won't tolerate any form of disrespect from you. The fact that I let what you did in the pet store slide, doesn't mean I'm going to condone this kind of behaviour. I have no interest in a human, much less you. Now take them off!" I said, pushing her into the tub.

She took heed and began to take off her clothes. She was blessed with a lot of assets, I could say. The funny thing she did was to cross her arms over her chest to prevent me from seeing her breasts. So immature. What was I going to use them for? Very funny. I let out a slight chuckle.

"What are you doing? Put your hands down." She still kept her hands there. I loved the way she was bullheaded.

"It seems you have a short memory, so you have forgotten the warning I just gave you." She quickly put her hand down.

"Better."

I put on the shower and began to rub some soap in her hair and left her to take over.

After she was done, I took her out of the bathtub and allowed her to dry herself with a towel. She stood in front of the mirror, counting the number of scars she had on my back and arms. Most of them were unhealed. There was something about her that was different from other humans. She was fearless.

"You haven't seen your face in a while, huh?" I said, interrupting her moment.

"What's your name?"

"C-Call me Ava."

"I'm happy you're scared of me, Ava and you should be if you know what's best for you." I said looking into her eyes.

"Here, take these. They belonged to my other pet." They fit perfectly well, surprisingly.

"I'm not going to feed on you now because you're hurt all over. Lest you forget, I'm not being merciful, I just don't want to kill you after the first time I feed on you. Understood?"

"Yes."

"I'm your master not your friend."

"Yes, master."

"Good. You can sleep on the cloth over there." She ran off to the cloth like a scared little dog. Ha.

The scent of her blood was killing me. I hadn't had blood from a living thing since my other pet died a week ago. My pupils were thinning out, and my skin was getting pale. My body ached for her blood. I needed her alive. She was too weak for this. I can't afford to lose another pet. Isabel. I need Isabel. I picked up my phone and ordered her to come.

As early as 3:00 am, there was a knock at my door. Isabel. My pupils flashed in my sudden thirst for blood as I heard the knock. She walked right in. There was no day that I called Isabel that she failed to show up. Vampire blood couldn't compete with human blood, but at least I was quenching my blood thirst.

"You called for me, Ronin." She said, lifting her shirt up. I could feel my fangs growing out as my eyes landed on a vein on her neck. I pulled her onto the bed and dug my fangs into her neck.

The metallic taste I had longed for filled my mouth. I could feel my skin rejuvenating as I took in more. Due to the excitement my body began to feel, my hormones also began to get excited.

"Ronin!" She moaned as she motioned my hand to her mark of sex, selecting the number of fingers to rub it.

One thing about feasting from a vampire, your deepest sexual desires emerge. I could feel my other person pressing against the pants wanting to break free. So I let it. Straight into Isabel. A surge of power ran through me. I felt so powerful as my waist made back and forth movements. I had never felt this form of power before.

Could it have been Ava?

Wherever it was from, all I knew was Isabel was really going to get it today. I grabbed her neck and began to choke her, as I went faster.

"Ronin, you're hurting me."

Music to my ears. Still paying no heed, I went in harder, making my sacs slap onto her rear end each time, making her roll her eyes. I grabbed her twin cities and moved back to her neck, digging my teeth into her neck again.

After some taking about half a pint, I moved off her neck and sat down, motioning her head over to my length.

"Open up."

She opened up as soon as I gave her the instructions, and began to bob her head against my prick. Her hands moved up and down my shaft creating some immense friction, triggering more testosterone in me.

I was feeling so much power I began to bob her head faster, denying her of the chance to breathe properly. She hit my thigh, but I didn't let her go. I wanted her to beg. She found means, finally, to talk.

"Ronin, please, I can't breathe."

Haaa.

The sound of pleas. That even turned me on a lot more, but wasn't enough for me to release any hot shots. I got up and pinned her to the wall. In less than a second, my fangs dug into her neck again.

This time, her blood tasted salty and sour. This made me flaccid at once. It was when she began to move her hand down to my other person that I got completely turned off. The audacity.

"That's enough. I'll call you when I need you." I said pushing her away.

"Ronin I'm not satisfied yet. I want you to touch me." She pleaded.

"I miss your-"

"Enough! Get out!"

"Ronin!"

"Let's have another round like those times, I miss that." She said, moving her hands down to her breasts squeezing them.

"Isabel, I'm not going to have this talk with you. I called you here so that I could quench my blood thirst, not to have sex."

"You have a pet now, so why did you call me." She said, looking at Ava, who was awake. Damn it.

"You!" She walked over to her and slapped her.

"Isabel! I would not have you hit my pet like that! You have crossed your boundaries."

"She knows why I did that. Yesterday, I went with Aurelia to help her get a pet, and this nasty pig threatened me. She told me if we bought that human, she was going to kill me." She cried out. That's why I chose her, so brave. Out of humor, I laughed.

"Is that so? Come here, Ava."

"Sit down." I motioned her to sit beside me.

"You really did that, didn't you?" I chuckled.

"You're just despicable Ronin." She said, as she walked right out of the door.

She ran back to her cloth like a scared puppy. A servant walked into the room with food and placed it in front of me.

"Here you go, my prince."

"Where's my pet's food? Yesterday, I made an announcement that I had a pet, so how could you forget?!"

"I- I'm very sorry, my prince. I'll get her some food right away."

He came back soon with Ava's food and I watched how her pupils dilated. A new surge of power filled the room. It was so much that even the servant felt it. She thanked him and got busy. I had never been so intrigued by a human. Funny.

"I'm going to handle some business with my father, the count. You can wander around, but I want you to scream the moment you feel threatened, and I'll be there." I said sternly and walked right out of the room.

Ava's POV.

I woke up by the sound of a loud thud. I looked up and saw him feasting off someone else.

She seemed like a vampire. She looked like she was enjoying it from the sounds of her moans. I looked at her face and she looked so familiar. It was one of the vampires who bought Cornelia. He pinned her to the wall and dug his fangs into her neck.

I thought he wasn't the type who fell in love. She began to move her hand down to his other person, he was quiet awake.

"That's enough. I'll call you when I need you." He said pushing her away.

"Ronin I'm not satisfied yet. I want you to touch me." She pleaded.

So that was his name, Ronin. I loved it. Sounded less fearful.

"I miss your-"

"Enough! Get out!"

"Ronin!" He ignored her and went over to his bed.

"Let's have one of those incredible sex we used to have. I miss that." She said moving her hands down to her twin towers and squeezing them.

"Isabel I'm not going to have this talk with you. I called you here this morning so that I could quench my blood thirst not to have sex." He said.

"You have a pet now so why did you call me." She said, looking at my face and realising who I was.

"You!" She walked over to me and slapped me.

"Isabel! I would not have you hit my pet like that! You have crossed your boundaries." He yelled.

I wanted to react but I was scared what Ronin, I mean the prince would do to me.

"She knows why I did that. Yesterday, I went with Aurelia to help her get a pet and this nasty pig threatened me. She told me if we bought that human, she was going to kill me." She cried out. Ronin let out a loud laugh.

"Is that so? Come here, Ava." I ran off to him like a helpless dog running to its master.

"Sit down." He motioned me to sit beside him on the bed.

"You really did that didn't you?" He said, with a tint of laughter after putting his heavy arm on my shoulders. That's when I realised he was doing all that to make her angry.

"You're just despicable Ronin." She said, as she walked right out of the door. I hurried back to my cloth and sat there. I didn't want him to change his mood all of a sudden. I liked him this way.

A servant walked into the room with food. I was so hungry. He placed the food in front of the prince.

"Here you go, my prince."

"Where's my pet's food? Yesterday, I made an announcement that I had a pet so how could you forget?!"

"I- I'm very sorry my prince. I'll get her some food right away." He had switched from happy Ronin to the cold Ronin everyone knew. The servant hurried out of the room trembling. He came back soon with my food and it was so much.

"Thank you." I said, after he handed me the food. I wasted no time in eating because I was so hungry. Ronin made soft chuckles behind me but I didn't care. He finished with his food and got up.

"I'm going to handle some business with my father, the count. You can wander around but I want you to scream the moment you feel threatened and I'll be there." He said sternly and walked right out of the room.

I wanted to explore the castle and know more about it so I got out of the room. The castle was so big and everyone seemed to be busy. The sun was shining really bright and I needed that.

Outside the castle looked more human-friendly. There were tiny animals and butterflies all around. I spotted a bright colored butterfly and decided to catch it. Something from the bushes moved across to another bush but I was unable to catch a glimpse. It moved out of the bush it was in to another bush with much speed than before.

There was no doubt that I was beginning to get scared. The animal jumped out of the bushes and pounced on me. It was Isabel.

"Ronin isn't here to save you now, is he?" She grabbed my throat and slashed the flesh right underneath my left breast with her nails.

"I'm going to take your heart out and show it to Ronin."

"Your blood smells so good." She dipped her finger into my wounded flesh and licked up all the blood on her finger.

"I don't know why Ronin hasn't fed from you yet. Your blood tastes so good." She moved up to my neck and dug her teeth into it. A loud scream escaped from my lips. I was in so much pain.

The scream didn't deter her from doing what she wanted to do, because she was determined to suck me dry. She kept on feeding from me and I was getting weaker and light headed.

I saw a blur vision of Ronin pouncing on her. I couldn't hold on any longer. I woke up in a dark abyss.

I looked around and I saw different creatures that I had never heard of or seen before.

Suddenly, I found myself in a big chamber. There was a beautiful woman in there awaiting on the arrival of a creature. The woman took her clothes off the moment she saw the creature, and began to move her hand down the creature's chest.

The creature seemed to be a female but it had horns, dark wings and a tail. She was also beautiful, but I had seen her a lot of times in my dreams. I had drawings of her because she was always on my mind. I doubt any of them could see me.

"I don't think I can do this anymore, Lilith. If Lucifer finds out, he'll kill me." The creature said.

"He won't find out, my dearest. Come and lay with me, let's bond. I want this bond to serve as a testimony of our love." The woman, who apparently was called Lilith, said.

"Lilith, we can never be together. I love you, I really do, but this isn't possible. Us isn't possible."

"I want us to have a baby, Raya. Let's have a baby."

"How is that going to be possible?"

"Lay with me my dearest and I'll show you." Raya moved onto the bed with Lilith.

In less than a minute, Lilith locked lips with Raya, moving her hands down over to her breasts. Lilith moved her hand down to Raya's mark of sex, making her moan some inaudible words.

Who were these women?

And why am I here?

Where was Ronin?

Lilith began to nibble on Raya's neck while stroking her mark of sex, making her arch her back.

"Let us bond now, my dearest." Lilith spoke as she position herself at Raya's entrance, and began to ride her.

In the course of riding her, she began to chant some words making her go faster, causing Raya to arch her back even more, making her pupils disappear.

She finally stopped.

"We are bonded forever, my dearest."
