Julian He returned from the meeting with a smirk that seemed to stick to his face. He caught himself smiling whenever he remembered the events of the day, which was him, provoking the human lady who looked like she wanted to claw his face."Boss, Kade's here." One of his guards announced with a bow. Making him catch himself smiling again.'Fuck!' "Let him in." Replied, resuming his usual unfazed expression. Kade walked in seconds after his guards left and Julian could smell the anger brewing within Kade. "Hello, my friend!" He greeted Kade like he usually would.Even though he always knew that Kade had other intentions."I am here for the update on the meeting," Kade announced, ignoring his greeting. Kade's anger was palpable. He never wanted Julian to have his shares but it was too late. Julian was not nicknamed a man of his word for fancy.He always got what he wanted and he knows what he wants."Meeting went well. Did well on my second day. They will be relying on my companie
KadeKade walked past the lady by the door of Aveline's room and stopped before Aveline who wore a blank expression. It was as though she was not scared of him but at the same time, he could feel something, it was not fear, no. It was disgust."What are you doing here?" Aveline asked him, cutting through his thoughts. The look on her face confirmed his guess. She was disgusted by the sight of him."Surely, you do not think that because I let you out of the torture house, I'm not going to get rid of you," Kade answered with a smirk.If she looked at him with such disgust when they weren't in the clan and he hadn't shown her his real colors yet then he might have been a little bit disturbed by it but now, he had gone too far to let a little frown from her hold her back.The humiliation he had received from Julian was enough reminder that he needed to awaken the banished vampire army before everything he had worked for would go to ruin. "Just take this as a uh... break. You will raise
JulianJulian found himself looking forward to seeing Sabrina again and it got him excited as he reminisced about the last time he got on her nerves. They were supposed to have a meeting concerning their collaboration."Kade is asking to see you, my king." One of the guards announced with a bow by the door just as Julian was about to leave the room."He's here for what?" Julian asked as nonchalant as he could be."He said he had been trying to speak to you since the evening of your return from your first meeting at Aveline's office. He's been going mad about it and threatening to break in if we do not let him in." The guard replied. Making Julian stifle a laugh."Typical of him. Let's hear what he wants to say." Julian stepped out, to meet Kade pacing like a hungry lion waiting for its food to be served."You want to see me?" He asked Kade who wore a frown."You didn't let me in your chambers? Why is that?" Kade asked, fuming.He was pissed enough that he was no longer regarded as t
Sabrina The days moved by so fast and the closer the date of her meeting with Julian drew near, the more anxious she became.How could she be in a meeting with a man who provoked her every being? The fact that Aveline was being held hostage in his clan was not doing anything to reduce the anger she felt towards the man."Hello, Aunty." Betty's light voice cut through the angry woman's thoughts and she stared towards the door."Hey, sweetheart. How long have you been there?" Betty was glued to the side of the half-opened door, staring at her mother's friend with so much adoration. It would be no surprise if Betty said she was looking up to Sabrina as a role model. The woman was fierce and still so sweet. She had a large heart but never hesitated to call out anyone who was in the wrong."Not long. I just came by when I heard you were going out soon." Betty replied with a shrug.Sabrina smiled as she gestured to the girl with open arms."Come here, child." Betty ran into her embrace.
AvelineI have not set my eyes on Kade since the last time he came to my room. It was hard finding out what happened between Kade and Julian because I was still healing and had been falling in and out of sleep.The she-wolf who has been helping me had suddenly been distant. She doesn't spend as much time with me anymore, claiming that I need my rest. So I had only the books she gave me for consolation. However, on this faithful morning, I woke up and I didn't feel sleepy after some seconds of being awake so I got down from the bed.My wounds were almost healed since I'd been resting well and taking my meds. I still felt weak but it wasn't as much as the first week and the pains had reduced to a faint feel.I staggered to the door and was surprised that it wasn't locked from the other side.Perhaps, this has anything to do with what the guards said about King Julian's order to let me be.Two guards were manning my door and they shifted their gaze to me when I walked out but they did n
KadeAfter his conversion with Julian, Kade decided it was better to act on his _with the last card he had to pull; getting Aveline's daughter, Betty._He had not shown his face since he got to Julian's clan and had his friend handle his business while he was away but everything was not going as planned so he had to take desperate measures."Hey, sis!" Kade greeted over the phone as he got in his car."Am I talking to a ghost? You have been gone for so long that I began to think that my dear cousin is now a ghost!" The woman exclaimed from the other end of the call."I had to handle some serious business and it took more time than anticipated," Kade replied with a calm voice."You got me worried. And your niece had been asking after you all week!" She replied. "I'm sorry I got you worried. You know what? I'm coming into town today, can I stop by the house for a good lunch? You know I've missed your nice dishes." Kade asked and just like he expected, the woman had no issue with hostin
DravenThe day was a busy one for him, it was either that or he had been so buried in Aveline's absence that he snubbed work for weeks. And it was telling on him from the pole of files on his table and the trouping in and out of his secretary into his office with more complaints and questions. Must have lost track of time with the so much work he had to handle and he only realized that when he picked up a call from a client who wanted a detailed statement of his transaction with Draven's company. Draven ran out of his office when he saw the time. He had forgotten to pick Betty from school.He drove over to her school like a man whose wife was in the hospital.When he got there he was told that Betty already left and Kade picked her up.Kade was no stranger to the school. He always picked his niece from school before he decided to show his true colors and Betty always tagged along so the teachers didn't read any meaning into his meeting with the girls."You could have called me and i
An average person hates Monday mornings, but I have hated my life for the past seven years. Sitting in the back of the car, I clasped my palms together, rubbing them absently in a vain attempt to warm the cold dread crawling up my spine. But no amount of heat could ever thaw the ice that had settled in my heart over the past seven years.It's funny how time doesn't wait for you to heal and how it didn't wait for me to outgrow the scars that came from harmless wishful thinking. I shrugged and looked outside the window at the skyline of the bustling city and the most magnificent building in the whole country where I worked. But I am far from excited. I will soon be standing before “...the very face that ruined my life without even realising it, by never looking at me the way I wished.“Which spot in the VIP parking lot, is yours, Ma'am, the middle one”“No,” I screamed in response to my new driver, my eyes widening in shock. “Turn in the other direction,” I raised my hand and pointed.

DravenDraven waited for Sabrina to return with news about the meeting.He couldn't attend the meeting himself because he had to attend to a client of his waiting for him at his office. He had been postponing his meeting and the client began to think that he was incompetent.He had to show up and clear the air.The footsteps from the entrance of the living room caused him to shift his gaze there and he heaved a sigh when he saw her strolling in."How was it?" Draven asked before she even had the chance to get close enough."It was a day," Sabrina replied when she got close enough. She slumped into a nearby chair, heaving heavily."What's wrong?" Draven knew that the woman was scared of him, she was scared of facing him alone and she had to due to the circumstances so he knew she wasn't her normal self."Did he say anything offensive to you?" He asked again, beginning to boil from within.Kade had done enough with the help of Julian. They had taken Aveline away from him but if he tried
Aveline The wounds were healing very slowly. And I was in a lot of pain. The day the lady came to take me out of there, I finished three bowls of soup and only realized it when I was done.I didn't realize I was hungry until the aroma of the soup hit my nose. I ate like a hungry wolf for someone who had lost her wolf.My wounds were treated with some herbs and I wondered if they didn't have any hospital in the clan or a medical doctor who worked with advanced equipment.I couldn't complain as long as I was receiving treatment. However, concerning the men who came for me, the lady didn't speak much on that. It seemed like she did not know much either. She only stated that Kade's mood was soiled after he met with them.She had no idea what their discussions were about but it destabilized Kade. "How are you feeling?" I turned to the source of the sound and found her staring at me through the door.It was the dawn of another day. Even though she didn't sleep together with me, she made
