hapter 266 Chapter 266 Starving yourself is not the solution , Vladya added quietly .
* .88 % +13 She tried to kill Emeriel .
My bloodhost the one person whose existence is tied to keeping me alive poisoned and almost killed my Soulbond , the one person in existence who is my life .
The words came out in a suppressed fury , vibrating through the room .
His hand gripped the edge of the table until his knuckles turned white .
I knew Sinai was hard vicious , even but this ? This is vile .
This makes me question what else shes done .
What other horrors she has hidden .
You need her , Vladya said calmly , even as understanding gleamed in his silver gray eyes .
Bloodhosts arent just anyone , Daemon .
You dont have another , nor does anyone else .
They are exceedingly rare , you know this .
For another to emerge , the current one must die , and even then , it could take years .
Many of our kind do not survive the waiting period .
Youre not telling me anything I dont already know .
I wonder about that , you need a reminder , evidently , Vladya added .
Your control is legendary but you are hungry.
Very soon , you will start throwing pheromones around .
It will not get to that , Daemonikai snapped , his patience thinning.
You cannot give Sinai the maximum punishment , Vladya said warily .
She must get away with the minimum .
I know it , you know it , the court knows it .
Why not get it over with ? Daemonikai glanced at the abandoned glass of water , lips pressed to a thin line .
He knew all that .
That was precisely why he tried to avoid dwelling on Sinai and her crime .
While staying away might be punishment for her , youre also punishing yourself .
You are still recovering from soul death , and on top of that , youre healing from the poison ravaging your organs .
You need to feed .
Daemonikai sighed , sinking into the chair opposite his friend , leaning back , and closing his eyes .
He tried to block out the incessant pounding in his skull , the headache constant now .
At this rate , hed win a trophy for enduring the sheer number of headaches plaguing him .
Rarely did a moment pass where his mind was clear and pain free , and he knew deep down he couldnt keep this up much longer .
I will feed from Emeriel when it becomes too much , he muttered , the words heavy with reluctance .
Vladya nodded .
Thats good great even .
Her blood is special to you ; it should curb the hunger , at least for a while .
He hesitated , his gaze steady on Daemonikai .
However , I hate to be the bearer of bad news , my friend , but you know you cant sustain yourself on it .
It wont satisfy you , nor will it restore your full strength .
She may be your soulmate , Daemon , but she is not your bloodhost .
Have you forgotten ? A thousand years ago , I survived without Sinais blood for five years .
Daemonikai grunted .
Of course , I remember .
She was banished from Urai .
Vladyas expression turned dark .
You know what else I remember ? The suffering you endured during that time .
Evie nearly died because you were draining her dry and we nearly lost over five hundred people in this kingdom … twenty we actually did lose because you couldnt stop .
Daemonikai grimaced .
Those were dark times , one of intense suffering and loss he preferred not to revisit .
Think it over , my friend , Vladya said , rising .
Resolve this situation , and quickly .
Even if you intend to feed from Emeriel , you know youd never forgive yourself if you put her life in danger .
1/3 10 : 2 Mon , 24 Feb Chapter 266 PRINCESS EMERIEL 221 She sank deeper into the warm water , letting the soothing heat seep into her throbbing muscles .
The ache the felt all day finally starting to melt away , Leaning back , she closed her eyes , the faint ripple of water lapping against the tub .
She smiled in enjoyment .
Emeriel didnt regret staying .
What she did regret was the time she had wasted being miserable .
She had spent so long resisting , refusing to give her Beloved herself a chance to be happy .
A soft knock broke through her thoughts .
Emeriel opened her mouth , ready to dismiss whoever it was .
Em , are you in there ? Aekeira .
Her heart skipped .
Sooner or later , she knew shed have to face her sister .
If there was anyone she had missed as much as her grand king , it was Aekeira .
Im in here , she called out in a soft voice .
The door opened , and Aekeira hurried in , her smile radiant and infectious .
Oh , Em , I heard everything that happened She was practically glowing with excitement .
Im so happy , so so happy for you .
In a rush , Aekeira crouched by the tub , throwing her arms around Emeriels neck in a tight hug .
Im so glad you came back ! Emeriel closed her eyes , leaning into the familiar warmth of her sisters embrace .
Heavens , how I have missed this .

Im glad I came back too , Emeriel admitted in a murmur .
So you were really going to leave ? Aekeira pulled back , her expression shifting to one of hurt .
Without telling anyone ? Without telling me ? You were going to leave me here … all alone ? You are happy here , Emeriel met her sisters eyes .
I didnt want to tell you because I didnt want to jeopardize that or worse , make you feel like you needed to leave with me .
And Im not sorry for protecting your happiness .
You are a horrible sister , Aekeiras voice broke , as her lower lip quivered .
Terrible , absolutely horrible … and completely adorable sister .
Emeriel snorted .
When rumors about what happened in court started flying , I could hardly believe them .
Akeira let out a watery laugh .
But then Vlad he told me everything , and … Vlad ? Emeriel arched a brow .
As in Lord Vladya ? A soft blush spread across her Aekeiras cheeks .
Huh .
Interesting .
Emeriel bit back a smirk .
What made you change your mind ? Aekeira asked quickly , steering the conversation back .
I couldnt bring myself to cross Boundary Lake , Emeriels voice dipped low .
Every step felt like I was tearing my heart out .
She hesitated .
Last night , I … uhm … You what ? 9/2 10:21 Mon , 24 Feb Chapter 266 Emeriels eyes dropped , a small , wistful smile playing on her lips .
We were intimate .
And it was perfect .
Not just the act itself but everything .
The way his arms felt around me … the things he said .
Just looking into his eyes while we were .
She trailed off , heat flooding her face at the memory .
Lets just say suppressing my feelings after that wasnt exactly easy Her sisters eyes grew soft .
You dont know how joyful hearing this makes me .
As Emeriel climbed out of the tub , her sister bustled over to rummage through the drawers , pulling out a brush .
Emeriel slipped into her nightwear , her movements slowing as she caught sight of Aekeira .
A wave of nostalgia washed over her .
It was their old routine , taking care of each other like this .
It felt like a lifetime ago .
How do you feel now ? Aekeira asked , sparing her a glance as she set the brush down .
Her eyes held a trace of worry .
Really , on the inside ? Happy , Emeriel breathed truthfully .
Incredibly , immeasurably happy .
Beaming , Aekeira gestured toward the chair .
Emeriel took her seat , swallowing hard as her eyes met their reflection in the mirror .
For the first time , she noticed something different about her sister .
A radiant glow seeming to shine from deep inside .
Aekeira had been smiling since shed walked through the door , looking so contented .
Her sister was … happier .
Truly and completely happy .
