Love and Royalty (8)

-----------------------------------------Alexandra’s POV----------------------------------------------

We arrive at the seamstress. I lock my muscles so that I try and contain myself from smelling any delicious blood. I lose the will of breathing, I am a vampire I could live without air but I do it to seem more normal.

I go in; James and Blake follow and stay behind me. As we enter I hold my breath. I look around the store and see a young woman in her mid 30s. She has brown hairs and wears it in a cut bun, she has a nice figure but the most attractive thing that she has is her neck.

Her neck has a beautiful shade of tan; my eyes could see exactly where her veins are, so I could easily sink my fangs in and drink her. I start moving slowly towards her, she still looking down facing the wall.

Blake notices my action and notices my fangs morph out and grabs my shoulder hard. James just grabs my hands and pulls me away from the lady’s direction.

James makes me face me and whispers in my ear to calm down. I could feel my fangs already extracted and my eyes turning light baby blue. I close my eyes and focus on another subject, I could finally feel my fangs morph back in and I see in the mirror across from us and see my eyes turning golden again. Good thing I didn’t sniff the air around her, I would have flung myself at her.

James, Jason and Blake don’t act like this because they are more controlled and they are more mature. They are also use to being around humans, unlike me I’m always in the castle nowhere near a human. This would be the second time it happens.

I went to get the milk, since the guy that gets the milk went on a business trip with Jason, Blake and James. I flung myself at the guy and drank him dry; I burned the body and had to leave as soon as possible. Nobody ever found out where he went, but they did put him as lost. I eventually told James, Jason and Blake.

Anyways...... She finally hears Blake cough and takes a look at me and heads to the back, where an old woman comes out and welcomes us. The elder woman looked really elegant, probably middle class; she looked elegant but not as elegant as me.

``Well, good morning. My name is Jessica, how may I be of assistance?"

"Good Morning I’m Alexandra and I came to pick up my wedding dress and a couple of gowns I ordered."

"Oh my goodness, Your Alexandra. I have been waiting to meet you. You are our number one customer; you’re the person who most orders gowns in this place. You always call to order and send a soldier to pick up the gowns. I have been longing to meet you."

"Yes, I love this store. Even though it’s expensive it’s worth it, you’re the only store I know that makes my kinds of gowns. Thank You and I am honored. " I said to Jessica who has a huge smile on her face.

"Well, since you’re our best customer, we will make the gowns that you ordered today free."

"Why thank you, you are very generous."

"I will be right back with your gowns" Jessica goes through the door and comes back with 3 gowns.

"Thank You, I’ll be off then. " I say as I hand the gowns to Jason and Blake.

"Good bye and come again" Jessica says.

We all walk out and head towards the carriage.
James and Blake put the gowns in the carriage.

"Hey guys, can I go buy some treats for us? You guys could get the errands Jason gave you before we left. "

"Jason told us not to leave you alone" James says with a serious face that says he won’t give me a chance.

"Yeah but it’s boring. Please don’t make me go with you guys. And I could also take care of myself. PLEASE PLEASE!" I say with a puppy face on.

"Well...... OK but you have to stay in one place. You can’t wonder around." Blake says with a wag of a finger.

"Thank You. And don’t worry, I’m the best fighter and I have a huge anger problem and I promise I won’t eat anyone. " I said with relief. I pinky promise them and kiss them both on the cheek.

They walk to the hardware store and I walk the opposite way to the grocery store.
I look through the different types of teas, fruits and much more. I could sense a lot of people around me.

Next thing I know I’m being held by a strange man, I actually could not see his face. He was behind me and he flew his hand over my shoulder to my mouth and my nose. The only thing he whispered in my ear was "What, a beautiful jewel you are." His voice man me shiver, it was both soft and rough at the same time it sounded seductive.

He flew a handkerchief on my face and my nose not letting me breath, even though I don’t need to breathe every smell goes in my nose. The handkerchief was wet with a substance that made me drift into a deep sleep. The last thing I saw before I fell deep in sleep was 2 beautiful black eyes.
