Chapter 1060 Safe House.

No Vampire can hide from the ghouls. They don't have Origin domains. But even origin gods who have Origin domains can never hide from them forever. Primogenitors, no matter how powerful will eventually fall to the ghouls once they have a lock on it. It is something that she has seen before.

Imagine it if a thousand Ghouls have locked on to a single vampire. That is something sure to happen to a Primogenitor. Every Ghoul will target them above everything else. They might have fused with their heart of Carnage as Monarchs, but a thousand Ghouls have a way of grinding them down and killing them forever.

The eyes of the Primogenitor became lost as she recollected the past. She was weak then when it happened. She saw the event through the eyes of that primogenitor. The Ghouls were in the hundreds. They latched on to that Primogenitor like ticks and leeches. The Primogenitor was buried under their weight. Then she lost vision from that Primogenitor forever. It marked the death of that Primogenitor.

What she remembers the most is the pain. She didn't feel it personally but it left an impression on her. It was a pain unlike any other. No sort of pain resistance or tolerance will help her if the Ghouls get their hands on her. Her very existence will be fractured by their hands. They will tear her apart like rabid wolves.

That event occurred many Origin cycles ago when the ghouls were few in number unlike now when they are practically endless. Due to the large amount of living things present in the Underdark, the ghouls are reproducing at a frightening rate.

If the ghouls are not hunting Vampires, then they are reproducing. Just thinking about it made waves of fear rise from within her cold dead heart. And there is only one person to blame for all of this.

"Ragnarok is truly a madman."

She didn't dare to blame the demon god despite the fact that CARNAGE had a hand to play in the creation of Ragnarok. If CARNAGE hadn't targeted Ragnarok and hadn't given him a heart of Carnage which granted him the eye of life that he used to find the ghouls, then all of these wouldn't have happened.

Unfortunately, her thoughts are seen by the Supreme so it is best to keep troublesome thoughts away. The Supreme is unlikely to get angry at that accusation but it is possible. And if it is possible then she must avoid it at all cost because the wrath of the Supreme is not easy to bear. She is powerful, but she is not free.

The same person who spoke earlier asked, "Monarch Danah, what do we do?"

The question drew Danah from the terrifying memory and her thoughts. She answered with a sigh, "Frankly I don't know. We were discussing how to address the threat of the ghouls earlier. But things have obviously changed now. There is a ghoul in my throne room."

The ghoul in question snarled and snapped at her. She backhanded it in irritation. The ghoul flew through the air then it disappeared. It instantly appeared in Danah's face. Its hand was reaching for her blood-red eye with black rings. She was quick to block its attempt. Then she put it at arm's length again. The ghoul won't warp to her as long as she remains in contact with it.

She became frustrated by it. It reminded her of the time she had an insistent admirer. It was Pulchritudo the sex deviant. That putrid pervert wanted to have a taste of her "masculine flesh" and wouldn't take no for an answer.

He was always leering and pestering her. He was even stalking her. It was irritating, frustrating, and embarrassing. But at least Pulchritudo could be evaded. And Pulchritudo didn't want to kill her. The ghouls also want a taste of her flesh but they only want it to rip the life out of her.

So Danah roared at her dukes. "You best make sure I don't die. If I die, you will all go down with me."

All her dukes had rushed to her as soon as they heard about the ghouls. They know that they will be safe from ghouls once they get close to her. The ghouls will ignore them for the Primogenitor. She is higher than them on their priority list so they came to take advantage of her. She is their safehouse.

She was okay with it earlier because none of them brought any ghoul with them. But that has changed now. Her dukes didn't say anything. They kept mum. The only sound that could be heard in the throne room was that of the snarling and struggling ghoul who desperately wanted a literal taste of her masculine flesh.

Her assistant spoke up. "I have locked the entrance to the territory and I have also activated the defenses. No Vampire will be able to come through."

"They better," Danah said in frustration. "Or I will kill them myself. I won't go down alone."

She roared at her dukes, "You hear me? I won't go down alone."

Her assistant sought to change the subject from the morbid topic of death. "I have also moved all the Vampires in our territory away from the walls. The outer area of our territory has been vacated." contemporary romance

Danah was appeased a little and only for a short while. With her territory secured no duke or any other Vampire will be able to come close to her. That will keep the Ghouls away for a while. But it won't keep them away forever.

Danah said, "Your plans are good. You have a good head on your shoulders. But this will not be enough. What else do you have planned?"

Her assistant was silent. He knows how big of a problem they have. The Ghouls are on a rampage. They will get stronger and their warp range will increase. Soon they will be able to warp to where Danah is at the center of her territory from outside her territory.
