Chapter 47: Zara first kiss
In her room, Zara stood beneath the steaming water of the shower. Her hands were pressed against the wall, her head lowered, cheeks flushed pink. She couldn’t stop thinking about Lilith’s confession.
"Lover..."Just remembering it made her face even redder.
She sighed, closing her eyes as the warm water poured over her body, trying to calm the chaotic thoughts in her head.
After finishing her shower, she stepped into the dressing room and slipped into a black shirt and matching pants. Clean and dressed, she wandered over to the wide window and sat on its ledge, gazing out at the vampire city beyond the mansion’s tall walls.
The streets were alive. Vampires walked through the crimson-hued dusk, some casually drinking blood from the necks or wrists of their partners. There was something strangely serene about the whole scene—elegant, eerie, and alluring.
Tap. Tap. Tap.
Her ears perked up. A knock at the door.
"Beauty, drink time~" came Lilith’s familiar, teasing voice.
Zara quickly moved to the door and opened it. "Come in."
Lilith stepped inside gracefully... but she was empty-handed.
Zara raised an eyebrow, confused. "Where’s the blood?"
