Hells, I hated him at times. I hated him for hurting me, for turning me into this weapon—into this shell of a fae. But I also hated myself for disappointing him, for bringing this punishment upon myself.

Nobody truly understood the relationship I had with Lord, the life debt I would be forever paying back. He took me in and saved my life, giving me the strength and skills I needed to stay alive in a vampyre-riddled kingdom.

“Vampyres are not born with bloodlust, contrary to what you all might believe. Vampyres do not drink blood at all, actually, until they have lived a quarter of a century. Once a vampyre is twenty-five, their instincts kick in. That is when they need to feed.

So Im assuming Huntyr is vampire royalty?! But since she is 22 and orphaned she has no clue, although i bet Lord knows and using her as a weapon of his own making

“You haven’t seen me jealous yet, Huntress. If I were jealous, your little toy would be dead.” “Then what?” I cried. “What could I possibly have done to make you this angry?” Darkness swarmed his eyes. “You feel loneliness and you lean on the first piece of shit who shows you any signs of affection.”

I wasn’t sure why I needed him to like me. Needed him to want me. Needed him to approve of me, to hate Wolf just as much as I did. It was a familiar sensation—one I felt daily growing up with Lord. In a world where I didn’t belong, in a world where my own parents were ripped away from me, I wanted someone to long for me. I wanted someone to accept me.

“you say the word and they’re dead.” “I can fight my own battles, thank you,” I hissed back with a scowl. Wolf shrugged, his hand lingering on the door of the already-filled study chambers. “Doesn’t mean I wouldn’t be satisfied as all hells to cut a few hands off. Fingers, maybe. Toes.”

I pictured Lord giving up more and more of my blood for the offering. I slid the tip of Venom from my shoulder down my bicep, cutting more of my shirt, not even flinching as the contact stung. Warm liquid poured from my arm. I kept my eyes tightly shut. Bleed and live.
Michelle Grimison
That is some deep rooted shit if you have to picture your "father figure" giving up your blood to harness magic that is already within you cause you dont believe in yourself enough to harness it alone!

Lord would not be disappointed in me. I would give every single ounce of this blood to Moira if it meant returning home to him victorious. Whatever Lord needed of me, I would fulfill. I owed him at least that.

“I see your scars in your eyes.” The tips of his fingers circled. “I see them in your fight. I see them in your determination. I see them in your anger.” When tears burned my eyes, I let them fall. “Just because your back may hold these physical scars doesn’t mean you can’t rewrite that story, Huntress. You’re a fighter. These explain nothing if not that.”

“It’s not possible. Angels cannot be half-vampyre.” “It is possible,” he pleaded, taking a hesitant step toward me. “Look at me, Huntyr. Look at what I am. I was not born this way, I was turned.”

I hated him for lying. I hated him for taking care of me, for saving my life so many times. I hated him for standing up to Lanson and Espek and Ryder. I hated him for being here, for holding me while I cried. And I hated him the most because I didn’t hate him at all.

I couldn’t trust Wolf. Not only did he hide the truth from me, but he was a vampyre. He was an abomination. He was half a blood-sucking monster.

Wolf opened the floodgates of his bond once more, throwing all the desire and lust and longing through me. I could feel how turned on he was. Could feel the core of heat in his own body, growing and growing with the taste of blood. Of my blood.

“If I turn my back on him, Wolf, I have nothing. Nothing.” “That’s not true,” he argued. “You have everything without him. He hurts you, Huntress. This?” He reached around my shoulder and let his fingers trace one of the many, many scars. “This is not love.” My throat burned. I fought tears. “You don’t know what you’re talking about.”
