From Protector of the Grey House:
“Take more, Natalia. Drink your fill. Don’t you dare allow Vincent to take you from me.”
Natalia whimpered and continued to take the blood her mistress offered. Merika pulled her arm away and healed the wound. Natalia turned to her mistress and smiled.
Mierka caressed her cheek. “Are you well, my dear?”
Natalia nodded.
“Tell me who you want to be with tonight. Tell me you want to be with me.”
Soft confusion caressed the human’s featured. Natalia looked to Mierka for confirmation, saw the smile on Mierka’s face and gave her a similar smile. The vampire’s blood control won, and Natalia answered her mistress. “I want to be with you.”
