ADRIA’S POV

I took hasty steps away from her, but my eyes couldn’t tear away from the blood on her shoulder. It was just too much for me to take in.

I gritted my teeth hard, and balled my fingers into fists. No, Adria, you can’t! You can’t!

No!

At that moment, I hated myself for the powerful urge I was resisting to drink from her.

It seemed like something was about to erupt from my belly, something monstrous. I was on the verge of exploding.

“You know you want it. Have it, and stop being a weakling. Whose welfare comes first? Yours, or some random girl you don’t know?” Derek asked, with his hand stretched out in the direction of the girl.

I wanted to tell him to keep his mouth shut, and that he had no right to take a random girl, and ask me such a stupid question.

Of course, she mattered more than I did, at that moment because I couldn’t die, but she could. I was going to survive that night no matter what, but her survival depended on me.

I had decided to join Lucien in saving the

    ADRIA’S POVImmense joy exploded in my heart, and I couldn’t help but watch her as she ran.I followed her carefully as she ran with all she had, and I didn’t stop following until she walked into a house, knocked, and knocked while looking around frantically.A guy opened the door, and when he saw her, he knocked her head.“What are you doing out this late? Parties again?”“Xander. Cut the crap. Let me in.” She said shakily, brushing past him.“Mum, dad! I request you to ban Asha for three weeks!” The guy shouted, holding her neck, and shaking her affectionately, as they walked in, and closed the door.My smile grew wider because I knew I had prevented the grief that would have befallen that family. If they suddenly heard she was missing, or dead, they would all cry, but I had prevented their tears from falling.Through the windows, I saw a middle-aged woman setting the table for dinner, a man playing with a baby on a sofa, and a young girl reading a novel.I saw Asha pass by the wind

    102ADRIA’S POV.The kind of rage filling me was like none other. It was such a rage that drew tears to my eyes instantly. My fingers balled into fists, and my nostrils flared as I looked at the sad atmosphere in the class.“She didn’t come home last night. Her parents said that… that was unlike her. She never spent a night out, even when invited. She…she also wasn’t home this morning, so her mother came to school this morning to ask the teachers, and some of us who were around if… if… if we saw her.” Stacy said, trying to hold her tears.My lips quivered, and my vision was blurred as large tear balls formed.What wrong did Halsey do? She was just quietly living her life. She never upset anyone or got into fights. Angry tears fell down my eyes, and I couldn’t help the flow of emotions I was feeling.“She… she was reported missing a few minutes ago.” Stacy concluded, and my breath came out shaky.“Excuse me.” I managed to say, and stormed out of the class.Damn Derek! Damn him! How dar

    103ADRIA’S POVI didn’t even have it in me to be mad anymore. I was getting scared. Did he really intend to kill them all, one after the other?That was just unfair. It was the same thing as being asked to die by drowning or by falling. Either way resulted in death. Simply put, if I ignored Derek, he would keep feeding on my classmates, and if I went back to him, he’d expect me to hunt and feed with him.Choosing either of his choices resulted in people dying, and I was more than concerned.“So you mean Jamila is gone too?” A guy asked.“The police are not sure yet. However, news of a serial kidnapper has been released, so do well to stay in your homes at night, and steer clear of the forest.” Lucien replied, as professionally as he could.“What if it’s actually a vampire? Those dead cows had no blood left in them. What if the vampires took the missing girls?” Another girl asked and Lucien gave a little sigh.“When we find the bodies, we’ll know. Let’s stop making assumptions, and mo

    104ADRIA’S POVMy lips ran dry as I read it, and I brushed past Stacy to the phone store, but Derek was no longer there.What did he mean my friends were next?“Adria. Are you okay?” Stacy asked, coming after me, and I nodded slowly.“Just promise me you’re not meeting any strangers, or going out at night.” I said, without looking at her. Instead, I was wondering if I could still see Derek.He could not just decide to mess with my friends. They were precious to me. They were what helped me hold on. I couldn’t begin to imagine how life would feel without them, and that single text had me scared to death.“Adria, are you sure you’re okay?” Stacy asked again, and I finally turned to her.“I’m just… I’m just… I think all the news of death might be getting to me. Don’t worry about me. I’ll get over it.” I assured her, trying to give her a reassuring smile.No matter what, I wanted everyone I loved to be safe because if I lost any of them, I would be heartbroken beyond repair.I took a ste

    105ADRIA’S POVI watched the expression on Lucien’s face change, and stiffen.“I’ll take care of it.” He replied stiffly, and I wondered who he was talking to. Then I remembered my mother. I had not told her I was staying with Lucien.I hadn’t even intended on staying with Lucien, it had just happened. The tea made me feel a little sleepy. Something about it was just calming, and I guess the warmness also helped.“Hello, Mum.” I said, after dialing her number.“Sweetie. How are you?” She asked.“I’m fine. I’m sorry I couldn’t tell you of my whereabouts last night…”“It’s fine. Lucien already explained to me.”“He did? Oh… Either way, I’m sorry. I didn’t intend to.”“It’s totally fine, Adria. I know you’ve been having a hard time lately, but I want you to know that none of this is your fault, okay? All these people going missing, it’s not because you dallied with the wrong person. Things like this just happen, and we can’t move on if we blame ourselves, okay? So, I want you to stop bl

    106ADRIA’S POVDerek was gone. He had left. What had happened? His text sounded like he was angry, but had no choice. I wanted to type in something mean, but decided to leave it.A mean comment could make him suddenly change his mind, or do something crazier.I was going to ask Lucien not to bother about chasing him to the ends of the earth anymore, instead he was to save it up for when Derek showed up again on his own.Derek had done a lot, and had changed my life in a lot of ways. Now that he was gone, I had no one else to blame for anything else that happened. It meant I had to be careful with myself.The last time I had the strong urge to drink blood, I had overcome it with thoughts of the people who mattered a lot to me, but it might not be as easy as that the next time.Buying animals wasn’t that hard. I could tame myself like Lucien suggested. If it were to buy countless chickens, and drink them as little as I could until they all gave birth, then I was willing to do it.Derek

    107LUCIEN’S POVWhen I awoke, it was to the sweet aroma of pancakes, bacon, and eggs. I smiled, sat up and rubbed my head.The sun was already high up in the sky, and the room was lit up beautifully. A smile found my face, as I recalled the beautiful night with Adria. When I had discovered she was a vampire, I had thought our blissful days were over, but I didn’t know there were still more to come.I picked up my phone, and saw it was four in the afternoon.“Woah…” I exclaimed softly, got up from the bed, and went to the bathroom to brush my teeth. After brushing, I went down the stairs to greet Adria.“We’re having breakfast at noon now?” I asked, with a smile, and she giggled as she set the table.“It’s Brunch. I was about waking you, though.” She replied, heading back to the kitchen.“Really?” I asked, picking a chair for me to settle in.Then a message popped up on my phone.“Damn.” I muttered.“What’s the matter?” Adria asked, already settling in her seat.“I was supposed to be

    108ADRIA’S POVAfter Lucien left, I had cleaned up the dishes, and arranged the house, while smiling to myself because it felt like we were married already.When I was done with all the cleaning, I sat in front of the television, which was tuned in to the news channel.“We’re not even in the morning. Why is this playing?” I asked, searching around for the remote controller. “Where is it? I thought I saw it earlier.” I said to myself, as I got up from the sofa to search for the remote. “Did you fall?” I asked, bending to check underneath the center table.My hair fell over my face, and I tucked it behind my ear, and just then, my phone rang. I turned, and looked at it.A silly smile crept on my face as I walked to it. I wondered if it was Lucien, but alas, it was my mother, and I giggled at my stupidity.Why did I even think it was Lucien? Was I already missing him?“Hey, mom.”“Hi, honey. How are you doing? You seem to be moving already. When last did I see you home?” She teased, and

    127ADRIA’S POV.I took it out, and happiness flooded my heart. The happiness I had felt when I had received it.The fact that those memories could be happy memories that I wanted, brought tears to my eyes. I couldn’t remember. Why? Why was I feeling so happy just by seeing a tumbler?Then, as I kept on studying it. The memory had become clear. Lucien had given me the tumbler. I turned to him wondering why he would give me a tumbler, smiling when we were enemies, and then, I recalled his name.With the recollection of his name, everything suddenly hit me like a blast. I recalled lots of faces, and everything about me. I became myself.How had I lost control, and killed those helpless humans? How?And why was I about to kill Lucien?“Lu… Lucien.” I called, but it was so hard to speak. My throat was dry, and unused. He looked at me with relief, and joy flooding his eyes, and I tried hard not to break down.“Lucien.” I called again, and my breath came out in hitches. My hand found his fa

The wolves made to attack, but I held up my hand once more.“No interruption.” I instructed, and Adria struck, trying to slash my neck, but I dodged, and took hold of her hands, turning her the way I always turned her, whenever we fought.“Adria!” I called, but she easily broke out of the lock I had her in, and managed to slash my right arm.It was a deep gash, but that did nothing to me. I was already healing. She thrusted, and I parried. We carried on with that pattern for a long time because I didn’t wish to hurt her, but she became even more violent.“Adria!” I called once more, but she didn’t budge. She raised her claws to slash my neck, but I bent, and wound my leg around hers.She fell backwards, but made it to her feet quickly in a backward roll. “Adria!” I called again, trying to bring her to her senses, but she was too restless, and too fast.It was obvious she was st

    125LUCIEN’S POV.I wasn’t the only one, who felt it. Everyone felt it. The wolves, Lycans, and the vampires too.The odd sensation that filled the air. Like something was coming.They all paused one after the other, looking around. So did the wolves, and the Lycans.And it felt like I already knew what was happening, but was too scared to admit it.The vampires on the right began to part, and about half of them bowed, while the other vampires looked irritated.Out of their midst, on the clear path formed, after they all separated, came Adria.The white dress she was wearing was tattered, and covered in blood, but that did nothing to diminish the aura around her, and it didn’t stop her from being beautiful.She walked confidently with her eyes red, and flaming.Her dark claws were out, and longer than I remembered. They looked like they could claw out the human heart in a matter of seconds.It felt like she commanded the air. It hung around everyone, with a feeling of doom. She had fi

    124LUCIEN’S POV.“I’m thinking the same thing as you are.” Zayne said, confirming my suspicions.“You think Adria’s the one behind the missing people?” I asked, looking around for the remote controller.“Exactly what I think, and as for the rebel vampires… We’ve finally heard news of them.” He added, and I stopped my search for the remote controller.Watching news I had missed out on, was no longer important at the moment.“Tell me. What are they planning?” I asked.“They are creating an army large enough to defeat all the wolf clans, and humans, together.” He answered, extending the papers embodying his research.“How is that possible? How big would an army have to be to defeat the wolf clans, and humans alike?” I asked, taking out the papers, and skimming through.“A thorough investigation has been done. They’ve sought for vampires all over, and they’ve also turned some humans who have a strong will to kill. As we speak, they’re getting stronger in numbers, and enslaving the vampir

    123ADRIA’S POV.I was being sincere. I was tired of fighting, and fighting endlessly. Before it ended in the death of one of us accidentally, I wanted him to close his eyes, and kill me.That was the solution we’d been ignoring. He didn’t want to kill me, with his hands, so he’d been avoiding it.“You’re someone I know as brave. It’ll be over very soon. I’ll rise again, and even if I forget you, my heart won’t forget the face it beats for. When I come to terms with who I am, and accept that I love you, things will be alright again, so please, Lucien. Please…” I begged, still holding his hand to my neck, but he withdrew it, and sighed.“How do you expect me to kill you with my hands…?”“Just do it! Do it! I’m sick of our clashes repeating itself over, and over. Aren’t you sick of it too?” I asked, getting to my feet, and looking at him straight in the eye.“Damn, Adria. We need to think.” He said, placing his hands on the wall next to him, and bowing his head.“We’ve done all the thin

    122ADRIA’S POV.I felt sad, and distraught. What thick darkness was threatening to cover our light?Athena went back to tending to Lucien’s arm, and I watched her.“So, what have you come here for?” She asked softly, dabbing ointment on the wound.“Um… we keep on fighting each other. I’m a vampire, and he’s a werewolf.” I replied, watching her intently.“Of course, you keep on fighting each other more than the average wolf, and vampire would fight.” She replied, dropping the wool, and ointment.“Why?” I asked, and she got up from her stool, placing a hand on Lucien’s shoulder, and holding his arm with the other.“Because you both are the strongest of your species.” She replied, setting Lucien’s arm straight, in a single motion.Lucien didn’t make a noise, but the way he squeezed up his face, and looked away, suggested that it had hurt.“What a fine young man.” Athena replied, and moved to me, starting with my head. “You’re the daughter of the vampire Queen. A pure-blooded vampire, an

    121ADRIA’S POV.Hope flooded my heart like never before, and we began to make our way, towards the shore. Lucien still couldn’t move his arm, so I had to take him all the way out of the water.Finally, I got out of the water, and pulled him out too.We panted hard, and looked at each other, with sparkling eyes.It had been done. We had survived it. At least that was if there were no more obstacles for us, on the way to Athena’s house.“I think we made it. Athena will grant us a safe path home, after she answers our questions. Lucien! We actually made it!” I squealed, and threw my arms around him.“It’s still too early to celebrate. Let’s get there first.” He replied, stiffly, and I immediately withdrew from him.His shoulder was swollen.“Lucien, did you…?” I was asking, and he began to walk away.“It’s not my first time having a dislocated shoulder. It’s fine. I’ll set it straight.” He replied, dragging himself, tiredly.“Hey. You… you shouldn’t have… you shouldn’t have covered for

Never, in my life, had I ever seen a creature as large as that.The worst thing about the giant octopus was that it seemed to have eyes everywhere on its body.“Damn.” Lucien muttered, and immediately turned around, pulling me with him. “Swim.”I began to swim, but it was hard. Already, my stomach hurt. The leaves, and cloth Lucien had used to cover my wounds had slipped off, and I wasn’t supposed to be in water, with such a would.Swimming forward was our only option because the water didn’t let us get anywhere near the shore.Just then, a large tentacle landed right between Lucien and me, with a large splash, and we were both driven apart by the force of it.I landed on another tentacle, and my heart threatened to burst out.“Adria! Use your claws!” Lucien said, as I began to rise out of his reach. I got up from the slowly rising tentacle, and tried to jump down, but another tentacle caught me, and w

    119LUCIEN’S POV.Things were beginning to get worse. I didn’t know if we could outrun eagles when we were running at human speed, and I feared greatly for Adria who was injured.“Let’s run!” I whispered frantically, even though the eagles didn’t need to hear us to chase us.We began to run, and she winced continuously as she did. Honestly, I was also scared. Not just for myself, but for her. Even though I had promised her mother that I’d bring her back safely, the thing that scared me most was losing her.When she had been dying from my slash the other time, it had felt like the whole journey had ended, and I had lost her, but thankfully, I was able to save her.“Can you run? Will you get on my back?” I asked, holding her hand, tightly.“No, I would rather not slow you down. Besides, if those eagles sweep down low, I’ll be injured first.” She teased, and we continued to run. It was harder because we had to climb, though.Had it been on level ground, we could have been a bit faster. T
