Slaying the Vampire Conqueror

by Carissa Broadbent

And no, we could not mourn the sex, either.

are you not getting laid babe?

This, I recognized immediately, was Nyaxia’s magic. The heretic goddess. The Mother of Vampires.

So they must be in a totally different place than the other Nyaxia people

It was the first time she’d called me by that new name.

What was your name before?? IS SHE REALLY A VAMPIRE???

But I was acutely aware of the empty chairs. More empty still since our last meeting, when Asha and I returned from the south the day the invasion began.

Wait so the invasion just happen? Or was it a while ago? Is it the same day? I feel so damn stupid right now tbh i can't keep up with what's going on....

Raeth was lost in their initial landfall.

BUT WASN'T THAT LIKE TEN SECONDS AGO??????

“We know that the House of Blood is the most unpredictable of the vampire nations,”

So you're assuming it's them??

Acaeja was the only exception—the only god who tolerated Nyaxia and the vampire society she had created.

Is that the one who granted Oraya's wish thingy?? It's been a minute since I read these books

“It is too early to say what the Weaver believes.

Wtf do you mean?? Are you a sketchy bitch??

Yes, there were many practical reasons why the Salt Keep was built here,

But you still haven't explained why it's called the SALT Keep

I no longer could see the view as I did then,

Well duh you're fucking blind

In some ways, it has compromised your training—compromises

Oh bullshit. It probably makes her better because she's not brainwashed by this creepy blind cult

“What is this?”

“It’s the ocean,”

“...

“It is p...

oh fuck off. I hate this blind bitches cult

Then again, maybe war was universal, no matter whether our blood ran black or red.

Ya think?

Over the years, she’s taken my little finger on my left hand, too, and etched several scars into the skin of my abdomen.

Wait.. This bitch has bern making you cut off body parts??

“Sounds like something a cultist would say.”

“You’re lucky,”

“that I have a soft spot for caged birds.”

Daddy

I hated how dismissively he called us a cult.

Your level of delulu is actually insane...

It was an impulsive, risky lie.

girl you gonna get yourself kabobbed like Vincent

I liked messing with Erekkus,

It is kinda funny when he freaks out

“Didn’t realize blindfolded ladies could still be lecherous,”

DId he just call her hot? Or horny?

It was a little surprising, actually, how quickly he ran off into the rest of the camp.

Aw babe did you think you were making a friend?

Atrius, on his hands and knees, clutching the head of a stag with bare arms, his teeth sunk deep into its throat.

Does this guy not drink people blood??

And, ever so slightly, frightened of it.

I really thought she was about to say she was turned on...

Atrius saw me.

lol

Atrius’s stare was an exception. It felt like having your chin tipped up with the point of a dagger.

Wait but that's like kinda hot

A woman alone in this world sometimes needs to perform to make men take her seriously.”

I mean valid.

Maybe I should have considered further that I had deliberately chosen to sabotage Atrius’s army before I’d insisted on marching with them.

Ya think??

My darkest secret was that I had always struggled with this.

There's no way that's a secret... You're way more emotional than your sisters.

The castle was garish and disgusting on the inside, cluttered and dirty, once-fine silks and furniture stained with blood and cum and wine.

question: if you've never had sex (i'm assuming here because it's said you can't have it and you joined when you were ten) HOW DO YOU KNOW WHAT CUM STAINS LOOK LIKE???

Hated the men who burned a little girl alive.

That's oddly specific... Were you perchance the little girl?

Atrius’s teeth closed around Aaves’s throat, ripping it out in one brutal movement, the blood spraying like flower petals over the marble floor.

Hot

Then he let the crown fall to the floor with a clatter, unsheathed his sword, and pointed it at my throat.

Because he knows you're a dirty liar

“To think I let such a dangerous creature sleep beside me every night.”

Daddy

Aaves’s indiscriminate obsession with furs, silks, and drugs.

But he liked being a 1990s drug lord... Out here trying to yuck his yums

He was like a cat.

You're a pretty kitty rrrrrrrrr

How could I not have recognized my brother?

Holy shit...

“It’s impossible not to notice everything, with you.”

Omg he's smittennn

“My people,”

“are not welcome back home.”

Okay now i'm wondering if i missed something in the first duet... But maybe thet didn't talk about it?

“I told you that Acaeja disapproves of him and his mission.”

Or your creepy cultyness is who disapproves ofhis mission. Think about that for a hot minute.

“Sylina does not have a brother,”

THIS BITCH

There’s fucking honor in that, you spoiled little girl.

Spoiled little girl?? Excuse me????

I had to resist the sudden, overpowering urge to throw myself against him.

But porque?

“Do it.”

She wants that hot vampire sex

The reaction of his presence was swift and immediate, like the twitch of his cock in my hands.

How can you still feel his cock in your hands??? Or do I just not understand the position you're in right now?

To earn the love of a family?”

You shouldn't have to earn your family's love.... You earn their respect an their time but not their love.
