Chapter 56

Jasmine


It was really to see their relationship with their father gradually improving. Over the past few days, the progress I have seen was great. Over the past few days, I have seen them happier than ever and I don't think there was and could be anything else that can make me happier than watching them smiling.

Currently, I was sipping on a glass of blood and watching them and dad play chess.

Of course, the three of them had ganged up against him yet they were clearly losing the game.

"You all are so bad at chess," I couldn't hold onto my laughter anymore, "What a shame!"

"You are supposed to be at our side," Archer spoke in disbelief, the expression of my other two mates was the same.

"Who told you I am at your side? I have been rooting for dad from the start." I flashed them a smug smile and watched their scowls go deeper.

"You see boys, you have got no one supporting you with these bad chess skills of yours," Dad smirked, he was enjoying this game more than his sons were.

Of course, my mates were not liking the fact they were on the verge of losing the game, and it was a very bad one...like all their pawns were out of sight, and dad's was still there unharmed from the start.

"Dad, eliminate the rook," I pointed to the coin and a smile took upon his lips.

"Got it," Within the next few moves he had it out of the board leaving his sons perplexed.

It was probably their last hope of winning.

"Jasmine, come and stand here," Micheal scowled at me and motioned me to stand beside them.

"Nope! You can't get anyone let alone me on your side with those stupid Chess skills." I stuck my tongue out at them.

Lucien was deeply concentrating on the game and occasionally taking Micheal and Archer's useless pieces of advice; It was cute of him to think that he had any chance to win the game.

Even though they were losing this game, I had to admit that they were looking super hot with their focus on the game and sleeves rolled upwards.

Damn...their sight seemed more delicious than the blood.

"Checkmate," Dad spoke leaving three of my mates shocked at stunned by his statement.

Lucien hurriedly moved the king but once again it was trapped, dad had cleverly surrounded them with the coins.

"Shit!" Lucien groaned out of frustration.

It was literally so funny that I could barely contain myself.

Jasmine, you can't laugh right now!

Keep your lip tight.

"Move the bishop straight to the left," Micheal said, apparently the obvious loss had wiped a part of his knowledge that he had about the chest coins, he was told to move the bishop the way the rook was allowed to move.

"Micheal that's the bishop, not the rook," I said, somehow I had managed to not laugh at them at this moment.

His cheeks burned in embarrassment, and a light pink shaded them.

Awe...He looked adorable.

"Okay, we accept our defeat," After a long unsuccessful concentration and effort, Lucien finally gave up.

"Yay!" My hands moved to clap for dad's victory before I could even realize it.

Their eyes snapped at me almost immediately, but no reaction took over their face and it only meant one thing— They were planning a way of revenge in their mind, or maybe if I said in their language... it was Punishment.

"What is going on here?" Mom came walking toward us, because of just waking up she did have any idea of the utter defeat of her sons in this game of chess early in the morning.

Although I was sure she was aware of the bad Chess skills her sons' had I knew that if she was here earlier she would have been on their side in this game.

"Nothing, me and Jasmine just witnessed how bad the Vampire Kings are at Chess." Dad laughed and this time I burst out laughing too.

"That was a good one," I gave him a high-five before we both divulged in peals of laughter once again.

Mom seemed to notice the annoyed expression of my mates and just as I had guessed she took their side to lessen their embarrassment even though from her expression it was evident that she wanted to laugh too.

"Elijah, they are not bad at Chess, they must not be paying much attention to the game."

"Haha, very true," Dad said in a monotone.

"By the way....Did you find the book I told you to?" Mom crossed her hands over her chest and her stare turned skeptical.

"Not yet, why don't you ask one of the maids? They'll do that for you."

"Elijah!" Mom exclaimed, "I just asked you one thing to do and you are acting this lazy."

"I am not lazy," Dad grumbled.

"Then go and find it for me." Mom said strictly causing dad to roll his eyes and stand up.

"Fine!" He groaned.

"Your mother-in-law is a headache," he told me causing a laugh to slip from my lips before he was out of our sight, on his way to fulfill his wife's order.

"What book, mom?" I asked out of curiosity, "I can help you find it."

"It's a guide for knitting," She told me.

"Why would you need that?" I was confused.

A smile broke on her face and she lightly pinched my cheek, "It's because I want my future grandchild to wear something I have knit with my hands."

The furious blush took no time to appear on my face.

"Hopefully, within the next few years, I'd be able to make a good collection before their arrival." With that smile being flashed at me she walked out of the place leaving me all flustered.

As she was out of our site, I felt Archer grabbing the glass from my hand. A small smirk had tugged at his lips.

"Bedroom, right now," And with that demand being uttered by Lucien, all three of them walked out heading for the room.

Well...I should have known there was going to be a payback for getting on their nerves.





*****




As soon as I entered the room, in the speed of wind Lucien had me pressed against the closed door with my hands locked over my head in his hold.

"You were enjoying the game a little too much, weren't you?" He asked, his breath heavy and his eyes challenging.

Being a Vampire had a lot of advantages, but one that it didn't have was that it didn't help me with the nervousness I felt every time these devilishly handsome Vampires would be close to me.

Now that I was a Vampire, the sparks were stronger and I could feel their scent and notice the details of their gorgeous features even more and it was definitely not helping me in keeping my thoughts together.

But with all these disadvantages being on top of me, I still managed to say what I said next.

"Well...it's not my fault that you all suck at Chess."

I did not have any idea why I loved provoking them so much.

"Little one, just because we love you so much does not mean we would step back from punishing you for acting like a bad girl." He wrapped his hand around my throat giving it a squeeze.

"What would you do?" I asked, he had certainly caught the challenge in my tone.

"Let Micheal and Archer show it to you," He slipped his hand around my waist before he passed me to Micheal, my body hit against his one and my hands went to clutch onto his shirt to balance myself.

Archer stood behind me, his hands settling on my hips.

"First, we are going to strip this beautiful body of yours," Micheal whispered and the next moment the sound of my dress getting torn by Archer was heard.

"Next is this thing that'll not be usable from now on," Archer spoke, and just as I had thought the sound of my bra getting torn was heard.

Micheal slipped it off my body and the cold air hit my bare breast causing the sensitive buds to harden.

"And then this one is next," Archer's hand grabbed me over my panties, the need for friction got intense at this point.

Micheal's fingers reached the band on my panties and just like all the other times with the help of his extended nail, he made sure this mere piece of fabric was too no longer on me.

Within less than a matter of a few minutes, they had gotten me completely naked.

"Now it's time for your Punishment," Micheal lowly growled.

"Careful, I might like the punishment..." I grabbed slid one of my hands around Archer's neck and with my other hand, I grabbed Micheal's jaw.

At this point, my own nails had extended too and I could see the reflection of my red eyes in Micheal's ones.

And with a swift movement of them, I found myself on the bed and the positions had shifted. This time Lucien had hovered my body whilst Micheal and Archer were on my side.

"You know what, fuck the punishment. We are going to devour you." Lucien said and the next moment, he lowered himself and pressed his lips against my wet heat, whilst Archer's lips found my hardened nipples and Micheal claimed my mouth.

Well damn...I couldn't have imagined myself in a better situation than this.
