Chapter: Chapter 18 - The ghost of the pastRick POV Well, fuck it is... "And what exactly do you mean by that?" - I ask, hoping I can avoid it somehow. "She will be your death. You will die. You cease to exist... shall I continue?" - she asks irritated. "I know what doom means, thank you very much!" - I answer sarcastically. - "What I meant is what will happen? What causes it?" - Is there a way to avoid it? I didn't dare to ask. She would think I am a wuss. She looks at me like I have just grown two heads. She takes a deep breath like I just annoy her. She slowly lowers her eyes to my chest then back at my face and eyes. I see a flicker of confusion in her opal eyes, then it disappears. "How did you get that scar?" - she asks "How do you know I have a scar?" - I ask back. We look straight into each other's eyes. As if we're challenging each other. She then closes her eyes and smoothes her hand through her hair. "Not that is any of your business, but since I owe you..." - she trails off as it causes her some kind of a pa

Chapter: Chapter 17 - The SeerRick POV I'm closer to this cave with every heartbeat. The Seer's hideout is not something I should take lightly. She's guiding me, but still, I'm tested in this fog. I was never afraid of anything. At least, not anymore. But this fog gives me chills to the bone. My senses are not working here, only my instincts. You know the feeling, you're trapped inside a room, 'cause the lock is not opening and you start to feel overwhelmed? Now, this is a feeling I am not comfortable with. I even get visions about my past - especially my biggest regrets. I try to shrug them away but they keep coming. My vampire side feels really anxious. That word I never knew would ever use to describe it. My stoic, calm, and prideful vampire side suddenly mirrors my uncertainty. And Eugene went into slumber. I stop for a minute because that picture just came into mind is devastating. That was the moment that destroyed me. Completely and utterly. This particular event happened when Beth died. The sheer pa

Chapter: Chapter 16 - UnusualEliza POV The last two days went like a blur. After the moment I read that letter I couldn't sleep even for a minute. I dozed off here and there, but I am so stressed about that mysterious message I can't think about anything else. I am at the college's camera room and observe all the monitors cautiously. There was not even a burglary in here before, but I should be careful. I don't know who sent it and I don't know how much they know about me. I can't express how much I fear for my life, although sometimes I feel it would be better without me, still, even the thought of dying right now is so tremendous, I start shaking in my seat. I try to take calming breaths, I try to shut my mind but nothing helps until an image pops up in my head. An image of that asshole of a lord who called me a wrench. My fear suddenly turns to anger and I just want to smack his head to make me feel this insecure again. I know I am not an extraordinary person, or even have a beautiful body, but I stayed

Chapter: Chapter 15 - Arrogant and mysteriousEliza POV "Women introduce themselves first before they slip into my bed." - he says coldly, his eyes not leaving mine. I'd smack him in the face but he brought me here, so I should be thankful. I should be, but I don't feel that at all. I am so mad, I can't help the reply that slips out of my mouth. "And men ask permission before they undress me!" - I say angrily. "It means, it happened before?" - he asks, seemingly expressionless but I feel he's just making fun of me. "No!" - I"m glaring at him. I want to stand up, but the moment I pull the cover from myself I feel cold and when I look at my legs I realize, I only have this tiny thing on me. "Where are my things? My purse and my clothes?" - I ask him embarrassed and quickly cover myself again. "Why? Didn't you just say men need to ask permission to undress you?" - he asks in the same cold tone and slowly steps closer to me. Instinctively I pull the cover higher, trying to hide. "Don't come any closer!" - but he doesn't car

Chapter: Chapter 14 - Without answerRick POV ~~~~ A FEW DAYS AFTER HE MET HIS MATE ~~~~ Eugene is driving me crazy. I don't know how but my wolf didn't shut up since we met that girl. I swear I miss the months he didn't speak. He almost took control of my body because he wanted to hold his mate. I feel something is not right in this equation. Every time I have a little bit of hope, things turn out to be dangerous. I mean, more dangerous than usual since I am the one who brings death to others. Why do I feel that this girl will be my death? I refuse to believe in fairy tales, a beast like me doesn't deserve a second chance. And I was fucked over the last time a mate showed up in my life, so... thanks, but no, thanks. My life is complicated, and I don't need another female to compromise my accomplishments. Speaking of females... Diana tried to make contact with me, even came to that meeting where her father, my Uncle, and I tried to smooth things over. She made everything worse. I realized she manipulates her fathe

Chapter: Author's NoteHello Lovely Readers! The last two days I had so many things to do, I couldn't update anything. But since I promised I felt at least I give you the schedule I was long overdue. This week I'm still at home, so I will try to write every day at least 1 chapter. Tomorrow I will give you 2 to make up for the past few days. But starting next week, I will go back to work and my schedule will definitely drop. My job requires me to be there 12 hours a day and 4 days in a week. Or more if I have to do overtime. So that is why I dare not promise more than 3 chapters a week since I don't know how tired I will be. If I have a good day, maybe I wrote 2, but mostly 1 chapter a day for 3 days. I'm sorry if it's a disappointment but until I can change my daily job I have to compromise somehow. Until then, you can ask me anything and I will answer it, except if it's a spoiler... ;) I hope you enjoy reading this story of mine and give me your thoughts about it. I'd really appreciate it. And if
