"Okie dokie. I guess we could always plan a date. Hehe..." Aria blurted with a cheesy grin, giggling nervously. Okie dokie? I arched an eyebrow at her and thought she was going to say something else. But that was it. She quickly turned away from me and went back to the werewolf's side of the hall. I watched her move to a man with a short beard and brown hair like hers. Hmm... It seemed that was her father. Just when I was about to go find Ravenna, I was stunned momentarily when she tapped me on the shoulder from behind. "Did you enjoy your little dance with your little wolf?" She asked with a sly grin. I rolled my eyes but for some reason, a smirk broke across my face. I think I was beginning to like Aria. But why?After a while, I turned to face Ravenna and queried. "You've managed to have more interactions with witches than me. What do you think? Could Aria be a witch in disguise who's perhaps placed some sort of powerful love spell on me?"However, instead of replying to my
Thanks to our bond as sire and fledgling, I could sense Ravenna's fear through the telepathic link. I tried my best to keep my thoughts to myself, knowing that Lord Darius would easily be able to read them otherwise. After what felt like an eternity but was actually a few seconds or so, Lord Darius finally spoke up again in our heads. 'The werewolf girl, Aria. What's so special about her?' He asked bluntly. Drats, he knew exactly what he was doing! I struggled to keep my thoughts about Aria to myself, but unfortunately, Ravenna wasn't as strong-willed as I was. Soon enough, I spotted Lord Darius's brows creasing into a frown before he nodded his head. 'Interesting.' he remarked simply. At that same moment, he cut off the telepathic link and had a smile on his face. "Sylvain... We have a lot to discuss in my manor tonight. Don't be late." He sounded so calm and even gave me a light pat on the shoulder. However, behind that calm facade was a ruthless monster wh
ARIA***Thank goodness, Sylvain and Ravenna were just friends. They seemed so close together that I actually thought...Anyway, after a weird interaction, Ravenna gave me and Sylvain some space. And that's when things became interesting. We danced. We actually danced! I'd been so reluctant and nervous at first but Sylvain assured me that I'll be fine and I should just follow his lead. And I obeyed. Eventually, after minutes of dancing and attracting the curious gazes of several vampires and werewolves, we stopped.Suddenly, after I admitted how fun the dancing was, Sylvain blurted. "I'm glad you found it fun, my little wolf. We should do this more often." More often? Did he mean...?"Do what? Hang out?" I asked hesitantly. And his response was ‘yes’. I couldn't take it anymore and blushed in embarrassment. I ended up walking away, leaving him alone to go get some air or something. Good moon goddess, what a night it's been!I was about to sneak out through an exit when a voice c
My eyes lazily opened when the sound of my alarm blared into my ears. I groggily got up and turned it off before stretching. Gosh, why did I feel like I just woke up with a hangover? I didn't even drink anything last night... Not even water. I sighed as I got up and got out of my black dress. I wrapped a towel around my body and quickly hopped into the bathroom to have a very thorough bath.However, as soon as I turned off the shower and got out, a knock sounded at my door."Who's there? I'm coming!" I groaned as I hurriedly dried myself with my towel. To my annoyance, whoever it was that stood at the other side of my door kept on knocking, causing me to curse silently. Who could that be?After applying some lotion to my skin, I held on to my towel and rushed to the door. However, when I opened it, I almost slammed it at the same moment when I saw who it was. "What. The. Fuck?" I stressed each word as I eyed the guy, exasperated. "What do you want, Orion? This is quickly becomin
"So, girl tell me, how did that party at the Alpha's mansion go?" Elizabeth asked me immediately after her mother dropped us at school and drove off. The sound of the students, some gathered at different spots on the campus and others just walking like us, streamed into my ears, making me sigh at the surrealness. But anyway, back to Liz's question. “As I mentioned in the text, it was a welcome ceremony thrown by Alpha Michael to welcome back the New Orleans vampires. Several important werewolves of the pack attended as well."Suddenly, she grabbed my arm, forcing me to look at her. "Vampires and werewolves in the same room? Gosh, that sounds terrific." She shivered at the end. Yeah, no shit. "Anyway, it turns out Sylvain is a vampire after all. He also attended the party and let's just say... We had a really exciting night." My face heated up with a blush as I recalled the previous night. From the conversation with Sylvain to the dance... Everything was just too perfect to be tru
By the time Elizabeth and I got to the scene, it seemed the drama had died down. We came just in time to witness Orion and his friends leaving with expressions that all spelled 'trouble.’ "Uh, dang it! We missed all the tea." Elizabeth complained beside me. However, I ignored her as my eyes trailed around the scene. My Nightshade wolf, the one that seemed drawn to Sylvain, was howling repeatedly inside my head, making it hard for me to concentrate or do anything. 'Our mate! He's here!' she hollered. At that same moment, a cold shiver, like an electric shock, surged through my body. My instincts screamed at me to turn back and I did just that, just in time to spot Sylvain standing behind me. However, when I turned to face him, my mouth ended up getting too close to his. I gasped but then held my breath as we stared at each other like we were in a trance. Once again, it felt like time had stopped and nothing apart from the fine man in front of me existed. But eventually, Elizabet
After a while of uncomfortable eye contact, Sylvain released his grip on my shoulders. "Sorry, I got carried away there." He apologized casually, his expression empty. However, I was left stuttering. "What... What mark were you talking about?" I asked.He tilted his head, giving me a surprised gaze at first. I had a feeling that I knew what he was talking about but I still wanted to hear it from him. Anyway, he eventually shrugged. "You know... Mate marks. The mark a dominant werewolf, usually a male, gives to their mate." He explained calmly. I gulped. Dominant? Mate?Holy moon goddess, was he acknowledging the existence of our bond? "Don't tell me you don't know what mate marks are?" He asked, giving me a suspicious gaze. Why was he suspicious when HE was the vampire talking about mate marks here? I didn't know much about vampires, but I was sure mates were exclusive to werewolves. Which added to my confusion of Sylvain being mated to me. Anyway, I defended myself with a whi
(Warning: Mature content Ahead! Not too explicit.)After school, I put a lot of effort into preparing for Sylvain's eventual arrival tonight. We'd chatted on the phone and agreed that he'd come around 9 pm. I was currently in my room, picking out something to wear. I glanced at the clock."Shit, it's already eight PM." I blurted as I hurriedly searched through my wardrobe. 'What about this!' I asked my Nightshade wolf mentally when I picked out a dress that I thought looked stunning. However, her response was negative. "Nope. It's too big."Big?I walked up to my mirror to see it for myself. I placed the dress in front of me and scrutinized it closely. I couldn't see what my Nightshade wolf meant by calling it 'big' at first, but it didn't take long for me to eventually spot it. "Dang, you're right." I sighed in frustration, flinging the dress on my bed. I ended up crashing on the bed, ignoring the slight headache that affected me soon after. "Don't give up so soon. You still hav
ARIA ****Sylvain Blackthorn had some serious guts, I'd give him that! I can't believe I confronted him in PUBLIC and then let him drive me home only to listen to him whine about another girl. Worst of all, now I had a better understanding of his beef with Sir Nikolaus. The dude was pure evil!And what the heck was Ravenna doing in his house? I'd always suspected their relationship but he'd assured me nothing was going on between them beyond the platonic. If that was the case, what secrets did he have to share with her that he had to resort to telepathy to do so? "If he wasn't so sneaky, maybe I wouldn't be so suspicious of him." I scoffed as I walked home. Yup... Sylvain had watched me storm out of his house in anger and did nothing. And now I had to walk back home and it looked like it was about to rain too. The clouds were dark and everyone on the road seemed to be in a hurry. Suddenly, my nightshade wolf spoke up with her usual soulless and melancholic voice in my head. "D
"This better be good, Ravenna," I grumbled, turning my gaze away from the door and heading to the kitchen.The sound of her stiletto heels clicking on the floor echoed around the room as she followed behind me. "Well, Sylvain. It depends on your definition of 'good'." She remarked, chuckling with a teasing tone.I paused, swerving my head to her, my expression blank. That was enough to tell her I wasn't in the mood for her antics, causing her to sigh. "Nikolaus got away. I lost track of him." She muttered with an embarrassed tone.Ravenna was known as one of the best vampire trackers in our coven. Back in London, when there was a rampant issue of vampires from Lord Darius's line turning people carelessly, she'd been of great help fishing them out. But unfortunately, Nikolaus's hiding skills far outmatched her tracking skills, not to mention he was more powerful than her. Anyway, I brought out a bottle of Bloody Mary from a cabinet and poured myself a glass. I gulped it all, breat
I stared at Aria in surprise at first before I asked hesitantly. "Why? Do you need something there, or...""Seriously, Sylvain?" She threw her hands in frustration. "For Christ's sake, you're my boyfriend! I haven't been to your place and barely know anything about you ever since we started dating."Dating? Was I sure I'd like to call what I had with her "dating"?“Never mind." She sighed. "I guess I'll–""Wait!" I called her back before she could step out of the car. She glanced at me, arching an eyebrow. "I'll take you to my place, then. But does your father know?"She blinked with what seemed like a surprised look at first before shrugging. "I'm an adult. I'm sure he'll be cool if I go somewhere else other than school and this boring house." I glanced hesitantly at the Alpha's mansion, which loomed like a mountain beside us. With a shrug, I started the ignition and drove to my house. Once we got there and stepped out of the car, I suddenly got a telepathic message from Ravenna.
I watched Maria's facial expression change from surprise to excitement within a couple of seconds as a warm smile spread on her face. "S– Sir Sylvain." She bowed slightly, still managing to keep her gaze on me. "It's so nice seeing you again." I smiled politely. "The feeling is mutual, Maria. I'm glad to see you're doing okay after that unsightly incident earlier today." Her smile widened, and she just stood there staring, neither moving nor speaking. However, she flinched when Ravenna cleared her throat. "Uh, our drinks please." She waved at Maria with a teasing tone, occasionally glancing at me as she leaned forward to grab the drinks. Now why was she giving me that look? Maria gave an awkward smile and dropped the drinks. She was about to walk away when Nikolaus suddenly called her back. "So, you're the niece Dorothy was talking about?" He asked with a curious gaze. I knew that look all too well. Nikolaus was shameless when it came to his pursuit of women. Every
FLASHBACK 1816, England.On a cold winter night, on the roads of England, Nikolaus, Ravenna, and I walked through the streets like we owned the place. In a way, we did. Vampire supremacy in this part of Europe was unlike any other part of the world. No other supernatural races dared challenge our authority and allowed us to do our business in peace.Not even the resident werewolf pack stood a chance.Anyway, the three of us stepped into a nearby tavern and immediately got welcomed by the stench of rum and the sweaty bodies of tens of men, all drinking and laughing like there was no tomorrow. With the drought going around the country and most of Europe, it was a surprise that these people could still be so merry."Bartender," Nikolaus walked straight to the counter where a female bartender stood. "Get us your finest cups of... The usual."The female bartender raised her head the second those words came out of Nikolaus's mouth. The 'usual' he was talking about was nothing other than
SYLVAIN ****As I walked toward my car on campus grounds, I kept getting bombarded with messages from Aria. I tried my best to ignore them, opening the car door and stepping in. However, before I could start the ignition, I raised my head and was shocked to see Aria sprinting toward the pickup zone."Sylvain! Sylvain, wait." Her voice was filled with desperation as she ran toward me, ignoring the curious stares she got from onlookers.I gritted my teeth, torn on what to do. As much as I wanted nothing more than to step out of this car and embrace Aria, this was for her own good.Not only was I getting too attached, but I was getting overly emotional. A vampire unable to control his emotions was a time bomb waiting to explode.Closing my eyes and diverting my gaze from Aria, I started the car and was about to drive off. Suddenly, I heard a bump on the car, forcing me to raise my head only to see Aria already standing in front of the car, using her hands to hold it from moving forwar
"Well? Don't keep me in suspense, what is it?" Elizabeth asked with furrowed brows, grabbing my arm and leading me toward our first lecture for the day. As we walked through the hallway, we got a few curious stares which I tried hard to ignore. Gosh, when would people learn to mind their business?Anyway, I let Elizabeth in on the plan. "Well, Sylvain is a vampire with super hearing, probably beyond the limits of even a werewolf. So, I was thinking, maybe we should talk about sketchy things like the Demon and see if he'd try listening in."Suddenly, Elizabeth paused in her steps, also forcing me to pause with her. She rubbed the bridge of her nose, an exasperated sigh escaping her lips. "That's it? That's your 'grand plan'?" She nearly hollered. I arched an eyebrow, genuinely confused about why she was tweaking. It was a simple plan and quite effective if you ask me.I mean, what business would Sylvain have spying on me and Elizabeth's conversation if he didn't have some hidden age
"Aria? Aria are you there?" Elizabeth hollered impatiently from the other end, groaning for dramatic effect.I opened my mouth, unsure of what to say as I touched my underwear again. Yup, I was right, that was my cum.This means... That dream was real! It was beyond anything I'd ever experienced, that's for sure, but I thought whatever I did wouldn't mean anything because it was a dream.Eventually, I got up from my bed and finally responded to Elizabeth. "Sorry, Liz, I have to go now. We'll talk in school, okay?" Elizabeth was about to say something on the other end, but I hung up and threw my phone on the bed before rushing to the bathroom. I needed to clean myself of Azazel's freakiness on my body. When I got to the bathroom and stood in front of the sink to rinse my face, I raised my head, staring into the mirror on the wall with sleepy eyes. However, I jolted in shock when a shadow appeared behind me in my reflection. "Who's there?" I swerved my head backward to get a look bu
I gripped Azazel's head as he continued sucking on my nipples. He used his tongue to trace circles around my nipples, causing me to get wet.My grip on his head tightened as the feeling reached a peak, making me feel like I was levitating. My eyes rolled back as I let myself get carried away.Suddenly, Azazel dropped me, forcing me to open my eyes again. Luckily, a bed materialized out of nowhere which I landed on. "Beg me to stop." Azazel teased with a smug grin.My lips curled into a grin as well as I whispered. "Now why the heck would I want to do that?" His grin only widened as he crawled toward me on the bed. When he got to me, he brought his fingers to my entrance, and without any warning, he began rubbing my clit. I gasped with each movement he made on my clitoris with his fingers. My wetness increased by the minute until I thought his fingers should be soaked with my essence by now.Several times, I felt like I was getting close to the edge, but each time, Azazel would brin
