“Damion, come on, let's leave.”Damion sees Tyrus beckoning him in the direction of the cars.Damion suddenly realizes that he has been standing staring at Garrit stirring on the ground. He had been so shocked to see him that he had forgotten they were here to save Lilia.He turns back and starts running. They have to leave before Garrit informs the others. He must have healed by now. They jump into their cars and drive off as quickly as possible.*Lilia is in shock. She is sitting in the car with Brent who is driving at top speed.“Where are we going?” asks Lilia“My lake house. We obviously can’t go back to the University. It won’t be safe and we can't go back home either. If they know where you study, they probably know where you live.”“Who are they?”“It was Garrit.”“What?Only when Lilia thought she couldn’t feel worse, she did.“It means that Carl knows I’m the descendant, doesn’t it?” Lilia says.“I guess so.”They drive for another hour and a half and finally reach the plac
Brent and Lilia look at each other in shock. Who could it be? Lilia thought. She could come up with only one answer and she did not like it at all. She gets off Brent’s lap, grabs her jeans from the nearby chair, and starts putting them on.“You stay here,” whispers Brent urgently, “don’t come down until we ask you to, okay.”Lilia nods.*There is another loud knock. Damion is standing just in front of the stairs and staring at the door. He could check who it is but he was waiting for Brent to come down, just in case. Damion sees Brent halfway up the staircase where it bends to the right. They look at each other and then Brent nods.Damion walks to the door slowly, he can hear someone breathing on the other side. He places his hand on the doorknob and turns it.“Who is it?” Brent asks as he also reaches the door.There is no answer.Damion opens the door slowly, moving to the left along with it. If it was an enemy, he did not want to be in the direct line of attack.He peers from beh
Lilia is sitting in the main hall of the lake house with Damion, Brent, and the Junta lady. They had decided to invite her in. After all, she was here to protect her, or at least that’s what it looked like. Lilia is feeling nervous. She has no idea what is going to happen.She comes out of her reverie as the woman starts speaking, “My name is Chiara. I am the second in command of the Junta. We have been given the responsibility to protect the binder, that is you,” she points at Lilia, “and we have gathered that the sanctity of your blood is in danger. We are here to cast a protective enchantment over you. You would be able to return home after this because Carl or anyone related to him or working for him would not be able to enter within five kilometers of where you are.”“What? That’s amazing,” says Damion.“But the question is, how the hell did Carl find her out in the first place?” Brent says, “Don’t you have mechanisms against that sort of thing.”“We can’t know what is going on i
Brent kisses Lilia as the relief of her not being in danger cruises through his entire body. He cups her face in his hands, moves away, and says, “Do you want to finish what we started earlier during the day.”She smiles and says, “Sure.”He lifts her off the ground and carries her into the house, up the stairs, and into the bedroom where he puts her down on the bed. He climbs on top of her, kissing her all over her face then moves slowly down to her neck, kissing it. He pushes her hair from her chest and slowly unbuttons her shirt, kissing every inch of skin that is revealed. Then he travels down to her jeans unbuttoning them with his teeth and pulling them down as she lifts herself slightly. He kisses her legs down to her feet and then moves back up again.Lilia stops him as he is about to take off her panties and says, “Time to return the favor.”*Lilia pushes him aside and then climbs on top. She starts kissing his lips, his face, his ears, and then his neck. She then follows a s
The next morning, Lilia is sitting with Brent in his car and they are driving towards their home. Damion is following them in his car.Lilia felt content that she would not have to hide anymore and was happy to finally go back to the comfort of the first place she had actually felt at home. She had decided to go back to University on Monday instead of Sunday. They had heard from Tyrus in the morning. He had told Esther everything. She was a little pissed obviously but she understood why they hadn’t told her. They had not told Tyrus about the Junta ritual on the phone. They will tell both of them together*Esther is lying awake in bed next to Tyrus. She had felt betrayed by the secrecy of these guys. She had wasted so much time looking for the descendant and the fact that it had been Lilia all along pissed her. But even in her betrayal, she understood why they had not confessed to her. They all cared about Lilia immensely and they would do everything to protect her. Only if someone ha
The next day, all of them are sitting in the hall chatting when Esther says, “So now that we know Lilia is the descendant, what are your plans next? I mean we know that she is safe now, but you are trying to bring down Carl aren’t you? We can’t just sit here for the next fifty years and wait for him to die on his own or have a change of heart.”She looks at the three men.“Of course not, “ says Damion, “We have been trying to rally more and more people on our side and against him, just in case it comes down to a bloody fight.”“And even if it doesn’t,” continues Brent, “we hope to stop people from joining his side. The less he has the better. So, we just try to reach them first and warn them against Carl and his twisted motives. We don’t tell them the complete truth of course.”“Oh, I can help you in that too,” Esther says, “I have been around for over a century and I do know a fair share of vampires.”“Sounds great,” says Tyrus.“There is something that I don’t understand,” says Lili
Lilia is sitting in her class with Tasha feeling a little sad about the fact that she would not see Brent for the next four days. But on the other hand, she was cheered by the fact that she at least had Damion for company. She loved spending time with him as well. He is witty, funny, and charming. She often wondered why he hadn’t found a girlfriend yet. She thought any girl would want to date him even if one did not take into account his obvious good looks. He is a fun person to be around. She casts her mind around to think of someone she could set up Damion with. The first option is obviously Tasha, but she already has a boyfriend and she is happy with him. Then her mind goes to Emily, but she is not here. Although, when they go back, she could introduce her to D. Yep, that would be fun, she thinks.“Okay class, where did we end last week,” the professor’s voice inter
After some time, Brent leaves the house saying that he has to meet someone. Esther waits for some time and then quickly climbs the stairs. She walks to Lilia’s room and opens the door. The house is empty and she thought this would be the best time to start her plan. It was a full moon night today which meant that she had exactly fifteen days to execute her plan.*“Tasha..” Lilia says as they are walking out of class.“Mhmm”“What do you think about Damion and Emily?”“What about them?”“I mean... them... together... a couple.”Tasha stops and turns around to stare
