Chapter 4: The Vampire Boss's Gentle Bite - Brutal
Her slender neck was tightly bound by a black rope, and as the force increased, dark red blood seeped from her pale skin.
Marilyn tightened the ropes and uttered vicious words.
"You lowly, stupid wretch, die!"
"No..." Gu Shanshan let out a mournful cry from her throat.
The hands gripping the rope, their skin scorched by the sunlight, emitted a bloody smell, like prey struggling in its final plea for mercy before death.
Just as the rope was about to snap that slender, swan-like neck, Marilyn felt a sharp pain in her hand.
A flash of red light streaked past, instantly severing the arm she was using to strangle Gu Shanshan with the rope.
The entire hand was severed cleanly from the wrist by that red light, and the hand, painted with bright red nail polish, fell to the ground.
Brutal and bloody.
"ah......"
Everything happened so fast that Marilyn had no time to react and could only let out a scream.
Then I saw my hand fall to the ground, and thick, dark red blood was flowing out and dripping onto the ground.
Marilyn was furious, wanting to berate whoever dared to harm her so recklessly.
But the next second, it was as if he was under some kind of pressure.
A terrifying restriction hung in the air, forcing Marilyn to her knees, her body sprawled out, unable to move an inch.
Only the Vampire Prince possesses such terrifying control and manipulation abilities.
Thinking of that terrifying, dangerous, yet charming and handsome man, Marilyn knelt on the ground, her body trembling.
He had long lost the arrogance he had shown in front of Gu Shanshan.
With trembling lips, she respectfully called out, "Marilyn greets Your Highness and begs for Your Highness's forgiveness."
Gong Ye didn't even glance at Marilyn, who was lying on the ground trembling.
He walked gracefully to Gu Shanshan's side, took off his black coat, and draped it over Gu Shanshan, blocking out all the sunlight.
He bent down, picked her up horizontally, and silently recited a spell to cast on Gu Shanshan.
The pained expression on Gu Shanshan's face disappeared, and she closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
His cold gaze fell on Marilyn. "Marilyn, you have overstepped your bounds."
His tone was chilling, carrying a fierce murderous intent.
Upon hearing this, Marilyn's heart skipped a beat.
She never expected that what she thought was some lowly vampire, who had simply died, would be forgotten.
Who would have thought that this lowly, inferior vampire would have a relationship with the noble prince?
She groveled on the ground, begging for mercy, "I'm sorry, Your Highness, Marilyn knows she was wrong, please forgive her..."
Before Marilyn could finish pleading, she let out another sharp scream.
Gong Ye held Gu Shanshan and stood against the light. The black rope that had once been around Gu Shanshan's neck was now manipulated as if it were alive, tightly binding Marilyn's neck.
They dragged Marilyn's body, tightly strangled her, and voluntarily hung her from the tree to be exposed to the scorching sun.
For a high-ranking vampire like Marilyn, brief exposure to sunlight will not cause harm, but prolonged exposure will still have a significant impact on a vampire.
Marilyn was hung from the tree like a hanged ghost. This was a restriction imposed by the vampire prince, a force she could not resist. She could only hang there by the neck, not daring to utter another word.
Gong Ye's indifferent gaze fell on Marilyn, showing no pity despite her beauty.
He spoke coldly, "Dare to touch my little pet, this is your punishment."
After speaking, he picked up the sleeping Gu Shanshan and turned to enter the castle.
Marilyn's severed hand lay in the sunlight, unprotected and emitting a putrid stench under the intense sun.
Finally, it turned into a pool of black, foul-smelling blood and was buried in the soil.
As time went by, Marilyn, who had fallen from the tree, could no longer maintain her perfect appearance.
The intense sun exposure caused her skin to peel away bit by bit, just like Gu Shanshan's sunburn, revealing her bare bones.
In the deep eye sockets, only a few nerve fibers hold the eyeballs together, making them look ugly and disgusting.
Those eyes, almost popping out of their sockets, blazed with intense hatred as they stared intently in the direction of the castle.
A hoarse voice came from his constricted throat, "Damn inferior goods, one day I will make you pay for the suffering you endured today!"
She refused to believe that the prince could enjoy his favor for so long, given how inferior he was, who was so bad that he would practically turn to dust in the sun.
Inside the dimly lit castle.
Wherever Gong Ye walked, red candles automatically lit up, illuminating the path ahead.
The person in my arms was sunburned and smelled faintly of blood.
Gong Ye didn't find the smell unpleasant at all; in fact, he thought the blood flowing from Gu Shanshan's body smelled sweet.
He placed her on a soft couch covered with luxurious silk, and with a slight movement of his fingers, Gu Shanshan's clothes vanished without a trace.
His body was now covered in pale skin, marked with the blue marks he had left the night before.
Gong Ye's eyes darkened, and he sighed softly.
A hoarse voice said, "Wake up."
As soon as the last word was uttered, Gu Shanshan, who had been sleeping, slowly opened her eyes.
With a blank look in her eyes, Gu Shanshan bit her lip, her eyes red.
"Where did you go? I was in so much pain..."
I was starving and in pain, and I was almost killed.
The lingering pain in her neck made Gu Shanshan feel incredibly wronged.
In this world, he only knows Gong Ye, and only Gong Ye is related to him.
No matter what happens, the first person Gu Shanshan instinctively thinks of is Gong Ye.
Seemingly pleased by Gu Shanshan's dependent manner, Gong Ye was in a good mood.
With a slight smile, she said, "Be good, it won't hurt anymore soon."
Gu Shanshan's eyes were red and swollen. "You're lying, it hurts so much."
Gu Shanshan never imagined that after becoming a vampire, he would be unable to even see sunlight.
Not only was he nearly strangled to death by that inexplicable woman, but he also has sunburn wounds on his body.
"These little toys are so cute, they even know how to act cute."
Gong Ye was in a very good mood.
Clearly, Gu Shanshan's coquettishness had hit Gong Ye's sweet spot and suited his taste perfectly.
Gong Ye only said he was good, but didn't give him any pain relief.
Gu Shanshan felt even more aggrieved, opened her arms and cried out in a choked voice, "It hurts so much!"
Her coquettish appearance made Gong Ye's heart flutter.
He finally pulled her into his arms and gave Gu Shanshan a comforting kiss on the forehead.
"Sweetie, close your eyes, the pain will stop soon."
One gentle kiss after another landed on the wounds, the burning sensation subsided, and a cool feeling followed.
With her eyes closed, Gu Shanshan had no idea that Gong Ye was lying on top of her, gently kissing each of her wounds.
The skin that has been kissed immediately recovers to its original state.
"Sweetie, don't move."
Gong Ye's voice was terribly hoarse.
He was never a paragon of virtue, and besides, he had been alone and lonely for a thousand years.
Just as she was lost in her beautiful thoughts, Gu Shanshan suddenly felt a sharp, spasmodic pain in her stomach.
Gu Shanshan curled up in pain, cold sweat pouring down her forehead.
He clutched his stomach and cried out, "It hurts!"
After kissing the last wound, Gong Ye gently rubbed Gu Shanshan's stomach.
He asked meaningfully, "Little toy, do you want something to eat?"
"I'm hungry."
Gu Shanshan opened her eyes and nodded repeatedly, as if afraid that Gong Ye wouldn't give her any if she was too slow.
"Okay, that's enough to feed my little toy."
Gong Ye's tone was full of doting, but his eyes didn't seem to regard Gu Shanshan as an equal, but rather as a plaything to be teased when he was in a good mood.
Gu Shanshan felt very strange. "Mr. Gong, why do you always call me 'little toy'? My name is Gu Shanshan, you can call me by my name."
Gu Shanshan felt something was off about the constant use of the word "toy."
Upon hearing this, a hint of disdain flashed in Gong Ye's eyes.
He uttered a sentence from his thin lips, "The little toy is being a bit naughty."
On the very first day he transformed her, she tried to think of herself as one of his things.
In any case, it was just a little thing he kept as a hobby; Gong Ye never thought Gu Shanshan was that important.
He only wanted to punish Marilyn, that high-level vampire, because he felt he hadn't had enough of Gu Shanshan yet, and it would be a pity if she died.
Gu Shanshan didn't understand the meaning behind Gong Ye's words, nor did she have much interest in trying to figure it out.
His stomach cramps were so severe that he almost fainted.
"I'm so hungry..."
Gong Ye tapped Gu Shanshan's lips with his long, slender fingers and said in a low, hoarse voice.
"Sweetie, I'll let you eat right away."
Whether he could eat it or not was not his concern.
Gong Ye spoke coldly, "Butler, bring up the food for my little trinkets."
As soon as he finished speaking, the heavy door was pushed open, and the butler, dressed in a tailcoat, walked in front, followed by a string of people.
Those people stood in a line in front of Gu Shanshan, their eyes glazed over, like puppets, completely oblivious.
Gong Ye leaned against the soft couch, supporting himself with his hands, and gave a low command.
"Little toy, go on."
As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Shanshan's body went out of her control, and she walked stiffly step by step toward those people with blank stares.
Feeling her body slip out of her control, Gu Shanshan suddenly felt a sense of foreboding.
Could the "eating" that Gong Ye mentioned mean he should eat these people?
Thinking of this, Gu Shanshan's face turned pale.
"Let's have a meal."
Gong Ye's words were like a command.
Gu Shanshan stared wide-eyed in shock and fear, her body involuntarily opening her mouth to lean towards the man in front of her...
