Evelyn tensed. Her heart exploded with pain. Oh, how much she needed a hug all this time. She hugged Axel but he pushed her away that night when he found her truth, she wanted to hug Josh and cry her pains away on his chest but he also tossed her away.Evelyn wrapped her arms around Susan and hugged her tightly as she sobbed.Susan rubbed her back as the girl cried her heart out. She was thankful to Susan for being here for her, otherwise, she didn't know what she would have done to herself.Evelyn pulled back sniffing and stared wide-eyed at the wet blotches on Susan's shirt. Susan followed her line of gaze and then gasped. "Don't tell me it's a snot?" She panicked.Evelyn sniffed and looked at her sheepishly."Oh, God. Evelyn, Ewww!" Susan feigned a cry and got to her feet. Marching into her room she emerged after a while, wearing another shirt before she tossed that old shirt at Evelyn's face. "You'll wash it," She blabbered and Evelyn pulled it back pouting.Grabbing a chunk of ti
The guy was tall and had a lean body. He has dirty blond hair and pale skin with blue eyes that were adorned with big spectacles that looked good on him giving him a handsome introvert look."I'm your neighbor," He said, throwing his thumb to the right and the girl fully opened the door before passing him a tight-lipped smile."I'm Evelyn. I just got here today," she introduced and the man nodded."Are you Susan's relative?" He asked suspiciously. "I'm her friend, she told me to crash here as I was looking for a place to stay," She revealed and his brows raised in understanding."Oh, I see. That girl, jeez. She told me to look after her apartment. She should've informed me about you then I wouldn't have embarrassed myself like this," He said. The guy seemed to be in his mid-20s."It's okay, really." She assured him."It's nice to meet you, Evelyn. If you need anything I'm just two steps away," He smiled and bobbed her head."Thanks, Chris." She whispered as the guy left the apartment
Susan chewed on her bottom lip as she stood in front of the front door contemplating whether to knock or not. Last night when she brought him a sandwich he was surprised and calmly asked her to leave. She explained that she shifted into the apartment beside him and thought to bring him dinner.He had appraised her skeptically before he took the plate and told her that Evelyn didn't live there anymore and she shouldn't show up again before he thanked her and closed the door.But Evelyn has given her the responsibility to look after Josh. She breathed in deeply and schooled her expressions before knocking once again.She heard his footsteps before he came to a pause. She was sure he must be glaring at her through the peephole.After a long pause, the door opened to reveal Josh. He looked like a mess and his eyes were swollen, he must've slept while crying."I told you she doesn't live here anymore," He rasped in a low voice.She wanted to tell him the truth but she didn't understand why
Evelyn didn't turn around but she squared her shoulders. "Move," His voice was strong and collected.She could feel his warmth moving away from her. She slowly turned around and her eyes met with those grey rims that had tormented her a lot.His hair was ruffled, his coat nowhere in sight, the tie was loosened and the first two buttons were open with his sleeves rolled up to his elbows giving him a messy rugged look."How did you get inside?" She asked calmly and the man couldn't help but just stare at her silently.F*ck!A week. He couldn't get to see her for a week and nor was he able to sleep properly in these last few days. The girl with big brown eyes was on his mind 24/7 and her scent. Every night he would find himself in her room sniffing her pillow like a creep but he couldn't help it. Though he had let her go, he couldn't get her out of his mind no matter how much he tried.And now as he stared into those chocolaty pools, he felt his heart relaxing a bit. "Through the door of
Evelyn finished cleaning the tables as she sat at one of the tables going through her phone. She was alone. Chris said he had to go for dinner with his friends. He wanted to close the shop early but she talked him out and assured him that she'll be fine and will close the shop.She texted Susan asking about Josh. She replied instantly saying he was sad but coping just fine. She was making sure he ate properly. Evelyn sighed after sending a loving heart emoji to her. She was so thankful to Susan for being there for Josh.The doorbell dinged as the door opened and four young men walked inside. She got to her feet and hurried to the counter to take their orders. Putting a smile on her lips she greeted them. "Good evening, sir. What would you like to order-" The girl paused and her eyes widened slightly when she inhaled the weird scent.They weren't humans. Her head shot up and she stared at them with her breath clogged in her chest.This was bad.They were tall with a good build. She woul
Terror gripped her soul and her heartbeat shot to a reckless pace. "No," She whispered meekly and that bald smiled sardonically before letting her go with such force that her head almost banged against the window but she shielded herself with her arm.He forced her to sit on the seat and held her wrist in a lethal grip.Simon must've wanted to kill her now. His plan failed after all. It was obvious somehow Axel found the truth and he let her go."What would you get out of this?" She asked, facing the guy beside her."Obviously, money," He muttered, bored as if her question was absurd to him."How much?" She queried.He chuckled as he rubbed a hand on his head and down his face. "That's just not it, girl. It's about loyalty to the heirs of our Lord," He stated and she blinked at him muddled.Lord? Heirs?"What Lord?" She asked calmly though her heart was beating so fast that she was afraid it would burst out of her rib cage.The guy looked at her with a cocked brow. "You don't know you
The hold on her nape was gone as she sat upright rather abruptly. Her vision was blurred and her head was dizzy as the girl painted heavily. Her chest heaving up and down erratically and her heart was thumping in her mouth. She fell back on her butt and her body weight rested on her palm as she faced the sky blinking rapidly to get her senses back.Evelyn barely heard the cries of pain behind her. Her whole body was in the icy cold water of the stream as it washed past her. Her vision cleared a little and she groggily got to her feet in an attempt to run but an ominous snarl that ripped through the air laced her skin with goosebumps.The voice inside her head screamed at her not to turn around but the voice of flesh being torn apart had her stomach churning up as she turned around only to stiffen at her spot.The creature in front of her had her blood freeze faster than frostbite.A huge black wolf stood at some distance tearing the flesh of three dead vampires.Evelyn watched in raw
He helped her into his shirt and closed all the buttons before he put his pants on her which were quite loose. But she was lying so it wouldn't come off which was fine. Once done he got up and hurried to the restroom. Getting all the blood off of him. He changed into shorts before joining her on the bed. He put his phone on the nightstand.She wasn't a weak human anymore but a half-vampire. She'd wake up by the morning. He just had to keep her warm for the night.Laying beside her he pulled the fragile girl to his chest as he covered them both with the blanket. Her small hands rested on his bare chest and they were ice cold. Grabbing one of her hands he dropped a gentle kiss on her knuckles before resting her palm on his chest.When he called Maxwell to ask about her day, he didn't expect what Maxwell screamed. For a second his heart ceased to beat, robbing him of his breath. Before he realized he was dashing out of his office to his car.His heart was pounding fast as he instantly op
"Honey, can you zip it for me?" She asked as Axel, who was already staring at her, walked over. Ever so slowly he grabbed the zip before leaning down only to kiss her cold skin. She shivered at the touch, turning to glare at him but he didn't let her. He held her waist tightly before giving open-mouthed kisses on her back causing her back to arch up. "Axel, we'd get late," She complained. "But you smell delicious," He grumbled, licking her spine. She held the dresser tightly as her legs wobbled. Evelyn had already put on all the makeup and done her hair too. She can't let him ruin everything because he just got horny seeing her naked back. "Later, not now. I'm ready. I won't let you ruin my makeup, stop-ouch!" He bit on her skin nibbling the skin between his teeth before sucking on it. Her eyes flew wide as she abruptly turned around placing both of her hands on his chest to keep him at distance. "Stop, you'll tease me and I'll get all bothered and wet then you'll gro
"Where do you think you're going?" Axel murmured in his deep voice from beside her as he tightened his hold on her waist. She stared at the ceiling shocked. He was awake all this time and pretended to sleep. Evelyn slowly turned around in his embrace facing him. She cupped his cheek forcing his eyes to open. As soon as he saw her face a smile caressed his lips making her heart flutter. Five years have passed and he still looks at her the same way he did when he first confessed to her. Axel has told her multiple times that whenever he wakes up with her in his arms his day goes by beautifully. Though it was just a small thing Evelyn made sure to stay in his arms until he woke up. She wants every day of his life to be happy. After all, it was the little things that mattered the most. "You were awake all this time?" She asked grumpily and he only smiled. Squishing her closer to his chest. "I like it when you gape at me and poke my chest," He murmured, causing her face to turn crimso
Evelyn gently stroked his cheek. Her heart pounded in her ears. "Please, wake up." She breathed shakily but got no response from him. She was crying silently and with each passing second her heart fell into the bottom of endless sorrow. "Our son needs us, please, Axel." She wept to hold him close to her chest. She saw a few vampires sprinting out when they found Gabriel dead. Evelyn's heart dropped when she felt his pulse slowing down. He was dying. "Axel! Please, wake up!" She wailed cupping his cheek. Her body was giving up on her as she slowly drifted into darkness still holding him in her arms. A loud gasp left Axel's lips. His whole body jerked badly as his eyes shot open wide. Her hazy eyes stared at him in relief and she knew she could finally doze off in peace as the girl finally fell into darkness. Her whole body was aching and it felt too heavy and painful to even breathe. With much difficulty, she groggily opened her eyes, and the first thing she looked for
"No f*cking way," He said in disbelief before a grin broke through his lips and he was laughing like a maniac. Pulling back he stared at her from head to toe. "F*ck! You just gave birth, didn't you?" He mused not even believing himself. "Damn! This is absolutely like buying one and getting one free. No but why am I getting so happy about it? I should probably check if my assumption is right or not," He said to himself and stepped forward still choking her. A new rush of strength washed over her. With a low hiss, her canines extended out as she clawed at his face causing him to groan in pain as his hold loosened on her. Evelyn didn't stop there. She held his face and pierced her sharp protruding nail in his right eye making him scream out and he threw her away with force as held his bleeding eye. Her back hit the wall with force knocking all the breath out of her system as she fell on the floor wheezing. Pain shot through every pore of her being. "You bitch!" He sneered. Evelyn d
Evelyn heard whimpers of pain. It was faint but it was there and that wasn't it. She could hear the faint growls and rumbles. Her body felt as if tons of weights were placed on it. She tried to move but the task seemed impossible. She slowly blinked her eyes open only for them to widen in sheer fear. "Axel," She gasped, sitting upright in a jerk. Her eyes looked around frantically before she found her son cradled in a small blanket. His gray eyes peered at the ceiling with his tiny hands moving slightly. A sob of relief tore through her lips as she grabbed her baby before pulling him to her chest. Calmness washed over her as her heart pounded faster. Pulling him back she glanced at her baby in awe. His reddish newborn skin and eyes were like Axel's but his chin was like hers. The baby glanced at her before smiling and this was one of the most beautiful moments of her life. Evelyn kissed her baby on the nose. "Brittany," She whispered, looking around but she was nowhere in sight.
Axel growled at the number of vampires that surrounded him. The wizard lay dead under him as blood dripped from Axel's canines. His huge black wolf stood like a f*cking beast. His aura was dark and menacing as power oozed out of him in waves. A couple of his security men lay dead around them along with many vampire corpses. They were more in numbers. He was in a compromised condition but he believes that Daniel will be here soon. A sudden drop in the air had his head snapping to the front gate from where Gabriel was sauntering in with more vampires. The bastard was smiling casually as he stared at the dead bodies. Axel tensed up when Gabriel stared at the window to his room before his eyes met Axel's gold ones. "My. My. My. What's all this Axel?" He mused walking over to him as he stood at a few feet distance. Looking down he nudged the corpse of the vampire whose head was decapitated. Gabriel frowned before tilting his head to look Axel in the eyes. In response, the black wol
Evelyn let out muffled sobs with one hand she was clasping her mouth shut with the other hand she was fisting the sheets. Her heart was pounding wildly and the pain was too much to bear. With each passing second she felt like she would split into two. That wasn't the only pain she was feeling. The tremendous amount of fear and anxiety that enveloped her heart was maddening. Despite being in so much pain she was praying to God for the safety of Axel and her baby. She couldn't lose any of them. She could faintly hear the growls and hisses as there was a fight going on outside. Brittany's ears were still bleeding. She wiped the blood with a towel and made tissue balls before placing them in her ears. She was in pain. No one could hear the demonic mantra except for her because she was the only witch there except for that wizard. Brittany must deliver the baby and take Eve with her child to some safe place. She couldn't let Gabriel get his hands on Eve or the baby. She won't allow it.
Gabriel has become the Lord of the vampires a few months back. The dynamic of their world changes immensely. Luckily Gabriel didn't show any bridge to werewolves and declared he'll keep the treaty. As time passed Axel realized, he must have known by now that Evelyn was a forbidden child and no one has come after her which means he didn't want to mess with Axel. Axel thought he had to fight Gabriel if he came to kill Evelyn because hybrids weren't allowed to be born if they were born, they were killed. Axel was ready to fight him for Evelyn but he never thought that the sacred blood he talked about was Evelyn. A loud booming noise echoed through the surroundings as the whole mansion rattled with the vibration of it. Brittany's head snapped up as fear gnawed at her insides. "He's here," She whispered, panicking. She again tried to open a portal, it was halfway opened when shrill high pitched noise had her covering her ears as she fell to her knees in agony. "Brittany," Evelyn gasp
Brittany barged inside the room breathing heavily as her wild violet eyes searched for them. Evelyn gasped in shock as her eyes widened at the state of Brittany. Axel's jaw clenched seeing her condition. She has several bruises on her face and arms, also her forehead was bleeding badly. "Who did this?" He growled in a low voice.Though Axel didn't trust her in the start, when she approached him for help, he found out that whatever she did was for the safety of Evelyn. He began to trust her. That was the only reason he let her come into his mansion whenever she wanted. Also, Evelyn trusts her immensely so Axel has to as well. Though he wasn't fond of witches, Brittany was now a family and if there was a threat to her, he would deal with it without a second thought. He won't let anything happen to the family he has created from the ashes of his heartache and pain. "No," She whispered as her eyes fell on Evelyn. "You need to leave, both of you, hurry," Brittany said panicked as she d
