BloodStar

Chapter 52: How? She's Dead

Although Peter had given Xenia permission to ‘do her worst’, it didn’t much matter. She already had plans to do much more than he could ever imagine.

She took the lead and pushed her body fully against his as she began to kiss him on the lips. Peter returned her kisses as the two stood in the Crystal Falls Cave. Xenia used every maneuver she had to prolong their make out session as she secretly Bloodlet his ki more and more.

The two kissed for at least ten minutes as they stood together in the cavern until Peter finally broke their kisses off and said, “We best be getting back to the party. Though I’d like to meet back up with you later.”

Xenia said, “You can’t tell a girl to do her worst and then leave before the fun starts.” She licked her lips and said, “You’re not going anywhere.” She then pushed him with her hand and walked him back forcefully until his back was up against the wall.

She looked down at his pants and said, “Now you just relax.” She then got on her knees and unzipped his pants.

Peter had no will-power to tell her to stop, and he fully embraced her assertiveness. The touch of her lips, tongue, and latex-clad hands gave him an immense pleasure. He was quite sure that no one had ever made him feel such overwhelming bliss.

After nearly five minutes, Xenia was done. She stood back up and said, “Well? Are you going to keep me around for a long time, or do I need to audition more later tonight?”

Peter zipped up his pants and jokingly said, “I think you’ll need to audition more tonight. I need to see your performance in bed, after all; however, you can be sure that I will be keeping you around for a very long time Lady Innocente.”

Xenia pinned him against the wall and said, “Good.” She then raised her aura immensely turning the hue of the cavern from blue to red as her aura seeped into the crystals.

Peter frighteningly asked, “Elizabeth, what’s going on?” He tried to move but found that he couldn’t budge an inch. He couldn’t even lift a finger.

He looked back to her and said, “Elizabeth?!”

Through the mesh veil covering her face, he for the first time this evening saw two glowing red eyes staring back at him. He then looked her over to find her hair was now also a crimson blood-red.

Atop the cavern entrance an attendant shadowing Peter came running. However, before he could call out or run for help, Xenia had already noticed him and forced him to walk down and into the cavern to join them.

Peter looked to the attendant descending the staircase and said, “Good! You! Run and call for help! Something isn’t right with Lady Elizabeth Innocente! Call for the Duchess at once.”

However, he was utterly confused to see the attendant ignore him and walk right up to ‘Elizabeth’.

Xenia threw the side of her dress opposite the slit over to reveal a garter holding five short knives around her upper thigh. She grabbed one of the short blades from her garter and ran it over her dress atop her big boobs and said, “Come here darling.”

She beckoned the attendant over to her and gave him a long passionate kiss. Peter watched with utmost confusion and fear.

Then, suddenly, Xenia took the short knife and abruptly slit the throat of the attendant. She was sure to Bloodbend him preventing the blood from spilling just yet as she instructed him, “Now go die in the waterfall spring, please.”

The attendant walked over to the spring and fell in. Then, Xenia relinquished her hold on the attendant allowing him to yell as the blood spilled from his throat by the gallon until he was dead, and the spring water ran red with blood.

The dreamscape of the beautiful blue cavern had in a few moments been turned into a red hellscape.

Peter looked on to Xenia and said, “Who or what are you?”

She took the short blade and sucked the few drops of blood off of it and looked at him with her glowing red eyes behind her veil. “I’ll give you one guess. Come on. You can do it.”

Peter shook his head, “No. No! It can’t be! She’s dead! She’s dead!” He then tried with all of his might to muster his ki for a Lightbringer attack; however, he found that his ki channeling was completely blocked by her hold on him. Her grip was tight and immovable. He had never felt such a power take hold of him. He was genuinely scared for his life.

As he began to hyperventilate, she approached him slowly until her big boobs were once again up against his chest. She said, “Come now darling, you were so happy to see me only moments ago. You were so in heaven with my gloves and lips around you.”

She then slowly removed her veil to show her face to him. He looked on and whispered, “Xenia BloodStar. But… But… How?!”

Xenia smiled at him as she playfully ran her finger down his chest and abdomen before kissing him and saying, “I’m not an easy girl to kill. Although you were very very close.”

She took a few steps back and reholstered her knife into her garter around her thigh, and said, “Instead of killing me though, you put me in a state of constant pain. I was tortured and tormented by your family’s Lightbringer attack, and I won’t soon forget it. No, no, no.”

She rubbed the back of her palm gently against his cheek and said, “I’m not going to leave you for dead tonight. I’m going to torture you for days, weeks, maybe even years. You’re my new torture toy, and I have to say… you’ve passed your audition quite nicely. I think I’ll keep you around for a very long time.”

She stepped back and began to ascend the cavern back to the room forcing Peter to follow her. She spoke to him from in front, “Now, Peter. You have a party to return to. However, the reclusive ‘Elizabeth Innocente’ will be lingering on the outskirts of the party. But rest assured, my eyes will be on you all night.”

She looked at him with a beautifully evil smile, “You can’t very well deny that you’re attracted to me. You’ve made that much clear, so do try to enjoy our time together this evening. I know I will.”

She Bloodbent Peter towards the door and continued, “Oh and Peter, let’s keep a few distinguished guests around for the after party. Or rather I’ll be sure to keep a few distinguished guests around through you. Tonight is going to be so much fun.” She blew him a kiss and Bloodbent him out of the room and back to the party as she controlled his every move from a distance.

Peter moved through the party smiling and waving at guests who were flattered to even be in his presence. However, the outward motions and appearances were none of his own as Xenia controlled his every move.

The only thing he had to himself were his thoughts although he wasn’t sure those were private to him anymore either. He was overcome with fear as he made his rounds at the party. He was watching a nightmare from within his own skin.

Each time he approached a distinguished guest of the party, he cringed as he – against his will – invited each member to stay after the party for a life-changing proposition regarding the future of the empire.

As it was a personal invitation from Pope Peter himself, not a single one of the guests turned the invitation down. In total, he – or rather, Xenia – had recruited 10 of the empire’s most influential persons to the after party. The list included three Cardinals, three magnates of business, and two generals serving under his brother St. Michael. The remaining two guests were already under Xenia’s bloodbending: Duchess Carmen Innocente and Cardinal Betoli.

The party quietly died down as the clock struck midnight. The last of the guests left. The attendants were sent home or to bed. And all who remained in the great atrium were Peter and his ten guests.

They gathered around a life-sized standing wooden cross slightly tilted back at an angle against a wall. Peter raised his hand to it and said, “This is why we are here. Our God has returned, and I have invited you here tonight to aid our Lord in ascending to her rightful place as ruler of the Earth.”

The congregation furrowed their eyes with apprehension as they were unsure what he spoke of. At that moment, however, Xenia came walking into the atrium from the side corridor. Her veil was back in place covering her face, and she walked over to the center of the congregation near Peter by the wooden cross.

He then pointed to her and proudly said, “I present to you, our new God!”
