Her Soul and His Blood

Chapter 21: 21. Master

Zella started staring at the new face. He motioned her to sit. But she stood still not knowing what to do

next.

"Who are you ? What do you want ? Where is my brother ?"

" I know that you have lot of questions to ask. All your questions will be answered." he leaned towards

Zella and whispered in her ears, " by the real master."

"So Hance must be the real master." Zella said smirking her face.

After hearing this that stout man laughed loudly. His sound echoed in that room which gave Zella a

paranoid experience.

"Who are you?" She asked him again.

"Im Benjamin Parker, the Marquis of Vampires, soon." He extended his arm. Unlike others' his fingers

were thin and frail, shaped by prominent phalange bones and knotted where the joints curled around

the ends of each long and short bone in his hands. There was no muscle tone or fat definition and his

skin was only the layer of dust so fine over the polished white underneath.

Zella's hands were trembling with fear, she doubted whether to shake his hand. For a moment her fear

forced her to shake his hand .

"Please tell me where my brother is ? I beg you." She pleaded him.

"He will be safe here."

"But he was bleeding and injured."

"Don't worry, his blood won't be wasted. It will serve its purpose. To fulfill the thirst of the young ones."

"How dare you ?" She tried to hit him but caught by two bodyguard vampires of him.

They held her from both sides. She tried to untangle but failed. The anger flowed through her vein. She

closed her eyes and opened it. Her eyes started sparkling. Some kind of power developed over her.

She moved her both hands which was caught by two vampires. When she moved her hands they both

are thrown away and they hit the window. The glasses of the window broken and pierced through their

necks.

She saw them die. She moved towards Mr.Benjamin, with her full power on. She caught his throat

which is a cardinal error. He struggled to escape from her hands, the red stone made her more

powerful, the thought of her brother's death made her even more powerful.

He started choking, he put his fangs out, tried to loosen her arms. But the echo of her name made her

to move back from killing him. It is Hance, he is holding someone who is tired and hanging down in his

hands with a spot of life on his body.

"Zad..." Zella screamed.

"Leave him or else your brother will die in my arms."

Zella went backwards, the sparkle of her eyes diminished. She saw her brother injured and bleeding.

He is weak and barely even able to open his eyes. They tortured him and beaten him. Zella's heart

ached with the site of this.

"Please, don't Hance. He must be hospitalised, he is losing lots of blood."

"Yes if you cooperate with us. Hance take him away. And Zella if you don't then forget about your

brother."

"What should I do ?" Zella kneeled oh her leg and begged him for her brother's life.

"Give me the red stone." Mr.Benjamin said. She raised her head to see his face.

"I will do anything for my brother." She cried.

Mr.Benjamin laughed at her apathetic situation. He motioned Hance to go. Hance went away dragging

Zella's brother with him.

"No, where are you taking my brother ?" She ran behind him.

"Zella" Mr.Benjamin called her out. " If you want him alive listen to me." She stopped and faced him.

"Where is Hance taking him ? I told you that I will do anything. He need to be taken to hospital, he is

bleeding."

"Then give me the red stone."

"I won't give you until my brother is safe."

"He will be safe once you give me the red stone."

"I don't believe you. I will give you the necklace once my brother is safe."

"You think that I will allow you to do so." He clenched his fist "you killed my two men. You will pay for

this."

Zella started to have a cold sweat due to his fit of temper. Few mens who were wearing old fashioned

clothes and had a pale white skin were standing behind her. They gave her a hand blow, dragged her

to a dark room and locked her from outside.

"Please leave Zad, take my life if you want. Leave my brother please."

Nobody heard her cry, she is surrounded by four walls with a door without even a window.And as she

thought about her little brother that she had just seen an hour ago being carried like lifeless into the

man's arms, her eyes glimmered with watery tears and she felt as if whole world was about to crumble.

She dropped down on her knees and screamed with all her might. She sobbed and tears flooded like

the waters rushing down from a waterfall and the only time she'd stop to take up fresh air.

After few hours, the door is opened. Now red, tear-rimmed eyes stared back at him, with watery streaks

falling down her freckled face. She smoothed her now chaotic hair and wiped the tears from her cheeks

which were now blotchy and mottled.Her whole face was now washed with a dull red, including the very

end of her nose.

He gave her a smirking face. " Is my lady crying ?" He went near her and rubbed her hair softly. She

throw back a look and pushed him away.

"Don't you dare to touch me."

" how could I resist a beauty like you sweetheart ? I wonder why my brother loved you. Your blood

smells delicious."

"Hance, all you need is me and my necklace. Take my life and leave my brother alone. Please.."

"How sad, where is your boyfriend. He threatened me that he will kill me if I touch you. Lets see what

happens if I do." By saying those words he slapped her. Blood flown through her beautiful lips.

He caught her hair, Zella pushed him with her power and he is thrown away near the door.

"Use your power once more, your brother wont be alive." He gritted his teeth, watching her with his

crimson eyes.

Zella kept silent sealing her lips, fear struck her when she thought of those devils killing her brother.

"Lance, where are you ? Save my brother Lance. I need you Lance." She whispered.

Hance got up from his place, he thrashed her to the floor. With each fresh strike, she come back to the Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

body with pain. Adrenaline make her feel conscious of her body, each punch and kick make her feel

like sensing each individual cell and blood vessel bursting, each nerve ending blasting out electric

shocks and chemical responses.

She can hear and feel her heartbeat, her vision becomes tunneled. She saw the pleasure in his face

every time he kicked and punched her. She absorbed the trauma, swallowing the pain, then kicked her

way slowly back to the surface. He slapped on her face and she collided.

"This is for my parents, for the tortures your ancestors have done. I could have suck the whole blood

out of your body, but you shouldn't die so easily. You should feel the pain and sufferings , you must

know how much it pains when you lose your loved ones from your life."

"No...." Zella cried out loud.

He put his fangs out and stared at her giving her a warning sign. He approached her and gritted his

teeth and fled out of that room banging the door.
