Christiana WarEmbrace's side
...Spears snapped. Armor split. Men screamed.
A royal soldier lifted his blade, but a vampire swooped in and slashed open his chest with talons, knocking him flat before pouncing to rip his throat out. The blood sprayed upward like a fountain, and the vampire drank mid-attack, moaning as its exposed flapping breasts slapped against the man, as if the blood tasted like heaven.
Still, Christiana fought.
She moved like a lioness amid a pit of jackals, spinning and slashing, golden blade dancing with deadly precision. Three creatures dove at her at once, but she spun low, slicing one at the ankle mid-dive and impaling another through the chest with the blade's return arc. The third tried to bite—only for Christiana to punch its jaw sideways and stab her dagger through its eye.
Eros mid run glanced at her with a peculiar gaze in his eyes. Such a woman... Truly a price. But he had other things to worry about right now.
