Hello everyone, I would really appreciate it if you all left some good reviews for the book. It would mean a lot
>MayaI grabbed my clothes and some light makeup then walked out of the room to go to the bathroom.A breakfast date had always been one of my wishes, although it was something I day-dreamed about happening in the far future when I had my own job and was independent and all but still I couldn’t be more happier about it happening now since it was with Yohan.I don’t know if it’s because he’s so gentle with me, or if it’s because he seems like a person who’ll support me or maybe because he’s so handsome or perhaps it’s because he looks out for me and puts effort just for me, or maybe it’s just his smile or the texture of his hair or the softness that oozes out when he says my name. I don’t know what the reason is, maybe it’s all of
>YohanI took Maya back to her room and laid her down on the bed.This was bad. I had no idea what had happened but I could tell whatever was happening was bad.I sat on the edge of the bed and looked at her.Why did she suddenly get a headache? A headache so bad she fainted.There were two things I could think of.One, either it's got something to do with Quincy’s blood.Or Two, she suddenly remembered something that was sealed off. I can understand that opening a memory that was supposed to be locked can be painful but not like this. It’s not supposed to give you any physical pain.
>Quincelet“You met him!” My mother yelled at me while I stood in the forest near the Dryad. The portal to this world and the magic realm was open and I talked to her through that, “How?” She was astonished, “You didn’t tell me you knew him!”“Why are you so excited? He’s not yours.” The mist surrounded the Dryad, so the portal could only be seen if you’re standing right infront of it.“We’re still related!” She looked at me and I looked back at her unamused, “How’d you meet him? Does this mean he’s no longer living with the pack?”“Nena’s older sister is his mate. I met him through her. I had to lure him out but it worked.”“Oh good! Very good!” She looked so excited, she looked like a kid.I sighed, “But that doesn’t even matter; he doesn’t know anything.”“You could have told him! You met him after all!” “He didn’t listen, I did try.”“What! Why?”“Moreover I noticed he was wearing an earring.”“An earring?”“Yes, I’m guessing it’s what's keeping his magical powers sealed. It was
>YohanMaya’s been having nightmares every night but still can’t remember anything. My only deduction was the logical part of her was still making her forget. Afterall, her memories were sealed for seven years, so of course it’ll take some time for her to actually remember.Unless.I sighed.Unless, she comes in contact with another trigger.It took me a lot of courage to come to the decision to let things be. In fact it takes the same amount of courage every single day since she wakes up every morning scared as hell. Seeing her hurt, hurts me.I’m worried about her but if I give her the ring back there would be no point of all of this. We’ll go back to point zero.But I’m glad, when she’s finally up she gets back to normal. The rest of the day is peaceful and normal but I can’t help but feel a bit guilty. It’s my choice after all.I sighed. Honestly, I might have given the ring back but after seeing what triggered her memories I just can’t. I can’t shake off the feeling that somethin
>Maya These days I wake up every day with a jump. I sit up and realise my eyes are wet. I remember having a nightmare but I can’t remember what it is each time. My heart feels heavy every single day and there is this feeling of hollowness that I just can’t seem to get rid of. Today again I woke up with a heavy head and realized I had sweat a lot. I sighed, got up and decided to take a shower before anything else. I grabbed my clothes and went downstairs. Yohan was already up even though it was sunday. He looked at me while I was descending the stairs and then averted his gaze. I stopped in my path and stared at him. These days, there’s something odd about him too. He hasn’t been talking to me like he used to. I’ve noticed something, these days, when he looks at me I see some guilt hidden in those soft green eyes. I walked to the bathroom but stopped before entering. This was bothering me too much. So I turned around and looked at Yohan who was sitting in the living room doing
>YohanAs Maya fainted in my embrace I sighed and picked her in my arms then looked at my parents.“Why are you here?” I inquired.“To see you obviously.” My dad answered.“You could have at least told me beforehand!” I was angry, “You came here completely unannounced!” I shook my head, “You really ruined something major for me.”I readjusted Maya in my arms and both of the uninvited guests looked at her, “She’s your mate?” My father asked.“Yes.” I gritted my teeth, “Please leave.” I began to walk towards the stairs to take Maya to her room when my dad answered.“I have something I need to talk to you about.” I glanced back at him, “Put some pants on and come down.”I didn’t answer him and continued to ascend the stairs. I walked into Maya’s room and laid her down on her bed. I sighed as I looked at her face, she was sleeping soundly.I placed my hand on her cheek.“This wasn’t supposed to go this fast.” I whispered as I wondered why nothing would go my way when it came to my own ma
I wonder if it’s because of my curse or that I’m really very unfortunate. In my life, with all my might there was only one thing I wanted to go my way and that was for my mate to love me like I loved her.But things only took a bad turn. I don’t think there was a single turn that went right when it came to me and Maya.Anything I tried to do just simply went wrong.Anything I tried to expose would hide and the things I wanted to hide got exposed. And not to some random person, they were revealed to the person from whom they should have been hidden from.Dad had found everything out. He knew about my mate, the incident I was trying to investigate. Maya’s relation to that event and even about Quincy.“Yohan.” I looked up at my father who smiled at me, “You look distressed.”“I-I’m just surprised.” I can understand if he knew about Maya and her past. Step mother must have told him about her and he found out her history but he knows Quincy too?“I know son.” He spoke, “You just wanted you
nds which she clung onto very dearly.The wolf stopped in front of her and spat the big chunk of meat in its mouth away. As it growled at her I could clearly see those ugly blood bathed teeth that dripped red on the ground. I pulled Nena aside so that she couldn’t see anything from the window and then I ran out.Mom’s back was towards me while she faced the wolf. The demon spared me a glance but deemed me of no importance, perhaps because I was a child?As he was about to pounce on his prey I got the gun out, aimed at it and fired. It didn’t hit any of the vital places but it did hit his leg and threw off his trajectory. It fell down and I shot it again while I got closer but it didn’t seem like it had much effect.My mother turned to me and grabbed the gun from my hands.She was breathing heavily but her injuries didn’t seem fatal. She readjusted the bullets and shot the demon again, straight in the head with a bullet, slightly different than the rest. Nothing of much notice than th
>>Maya “And that’s how after a long wait, Quincey and I got married and became the Queen and King of the dark realm.” Nena finished her long love story, “We got married in the human world. It was a small event with very few close guests.” She smiled, “And yes, I invited my three fake boyfriends too.” She took a deep breath, “That was the last I saw of them.” She grinned, “And then we moved to the Vampire capital and years passed by.” “Woah…” I was shocked, “That was a lot to take in.”I definitely didn't think you’d turn out to be such a manipulative person.” It was unbelievable really. She chuckled, “Everything is allowed in love and war Ma,” She had a mischievous look on her face, “And look at us, we were two orphans whose parents were killed unjustly.” Her smile turned a little sad, “And now we’re Queens.” I smiled back, “I guess fate isn’t that bad.” She shrugged, “I’m happy now so I guess.” She smiled, “My time with Quincey has been amazing!” “How much more time before you gi
>>Quincy“What if some other Vampire tries to harm her?” I asked the king, my father and Luci. We four were present in the King’s audience chamber and we're going through some stuff, “There is always a chance someone could try something because she’s still a human. It’s going to take time for her blood mate powers to show.” I was making a point here, solely for Nena’s sake. Still being a man who has claim to the throne meant there was a chance someone might disagree of Nena and try to harm her.“Boy, the thing is, even if you revoke all your rights officially, there is still a chance it might happen.” The king made his point, “Because no matter what, you can’t fight the blood that runs in your veins.” He was right. No matter what effort I did here, it won’t change the fact that I was part of the royal bloodline. I sighed and looked down in defeat. What now? If not this, then what can I do?The king cleared his throat and made me look at him again, “Well you just need to be in a posi
>>Quincey“So none of you ever liked her?” I asked the boys while we all sat in the lounge of my house. I was sitting on one side and the three of them were side by side on the other.“Nope,” They all replied as they shook their heads in unison.“You want me to believe that?” I had my arms folded.“We only did it because she was helping us out. It was mutual help.” Chris said, “We had a deal between ourselves.”“Helping you guys out?” “She’s a pretend girlfriend for us because women don’t stop chasing rich men, especially when they’re single.” Sam said, “Nena is the perfect person for that role since she beats the shit out of people too.”I raised my brows as I frowned. It made sense, there were a number of times she came home and I could tell right away she had a fight with someone. So this was the reason why.“Don’t worry,” Chris said after he noticed the visible discontent on my face, “We just need her for another semester and then our deal ends.” He smiled, “We really don’t have
>>NenaThe world started getting blurred. Like a dancing mirage.The dark magic began to consume me and I started seeing red. A stream of liquid started coming out of my eyes that was not water.AH…No wonder Quincey told me I’d never survive here. I feel like I’m being consumed. It’s like there is a furnace in my body that’s steadily heating up and it’ll keep heating up till there is nothing left of me. Till all of me is burned and not even my soul survives.I felt like I was fading away with the increasing pain, “Nena!!” A voice reached me, “Nena!” I looked to my side and saw Quincey running towards me. He slid down next to me and brought me into his embrace, “What the hell are you doing here!!!” He yelled at me, “Why the hell aren’t you doing anything??” He looked at his father and uncle.“She refused to leave.” Daddy said, “I tried.” He raised his hands up in defense, “I really did.”The king nodded, “She’s too stubborn.” He said, “This is why we sent Luci to get you.”Wow, these
>>Nena“What happened to the previous one?” I was very curious now even though my head was starting to hurt, “Who was that human?”The king looked at Alister and I followed his gaze. Alister hesitated a little, then sighed, “It happened two hundred years ago,” He started a story, “Two hundred years back humans were still thinking of us as monsters.” He nodded sadly, “And Quincey grew fond of a human that once helped him but that same human killed herself when she found out what she got caught up in.”“What?” I shook my head, “What happened?”The two royal bloods looked at each other, “Let me tell you a short story about how Quincey grew a little distant from relationships.” Alister gestured to Luci to do something and Luci left while Alister came and sat down in front of me.“Are you alright?” He asked me.I shook my head, “I feel like a fever is rising…”“It’ll get worse from here.” Alister patted my head, “So I’ll give you the major details of what happened.”“Alright,” I nodded.He
>>NenaThe dark continent gave the vibe of a dark fantasy setting. It was clearly daylight but the sky was covered with dark clouds continuously and forever so no sun rays made it down to the land.The roads were old, looked like the ones the Romans made centuries ago but all the houses were big, like mansions. The market place was busy but not bustling. It looked like there were a limited number of people there.“I thought there would be more people here.” I asked Luci while he and I walked towards the Palace.“Many vampires go to the human world nowadays.” The Palace was in view, “The human realm has a lot of entertainment after all.”“Why not just bring it here?” I asked.“The magic realm doesn’t allow it.” I started seeing some royal guards.“It doesn’t allow it?”“Even if you try to bring it here, the portal which we cross through throws it out before you enter the magic space.”“Why though?”“To preserve the magic.”“Does technology ruin it or something?”“I guess you can say th
>>Quincey“Quincey stop!!” Luci hugged me from behind frantically to stop me, “Humans can’t take magic this strong!!” He head butted my back, “Idiot! What if someone dies?” His words made me freeze and he loosened up, “What if Nena dies?” He moved to look at my face that was filled with horror.My chest tightened and my brain went blank for a moment.No!! I looked at Nena who was unconscious on the floor.Oh hell…I ran to her, “Hey,” I embraced her in my arms, “Hey wake up,” I shook her a little but she was blacked out. Luci came and sat beside me, “Nena…?” I felt like my world was falling apart, “Nena, are you okay?” There was no response. Her body seemed lifeless with no reaction at all.Shit…Oh shit!!“Nena!” I check her temperature but my body is already cold. I couldn’t tell if she was okay like that or not because to me, a fresh corpse is warm too.Damnit!!I had never been so nervous in my life. I felt so shattered, so broken and so ashamed! What have I done? This is my faul
>>NenaSam stood his ground, “You got no say in this.” He said, “This is her decision.” He looked at me and all the attention was on me all of the sudden.Oh shit!Having so many eyes on me all of the sudden made me flinch but I got myself under control..I rolled my eyes and looked at Chris, “Where’s the food?”He was shaken up by what was happening but still managed to answer me, “It’ll be here soon.” He said, “Let’s set the table up.”“Sure,” I stood up and went to grab Nathan and Sam’s hand to get them away from Quincey. Luci, on the other hand, walked over to Quincy to calm him down.They exchanged a few words and a few times in between they glanced at me while my boy grabbed the cutlery to put on the table.>>SamI took a deep breath and looked at Quincey who was consciously glaring at me.This won’t do.I walked over to him while he sat in the lounge and folded my arms as I stood in front of him.“Don’t look at me like that.” He raised his head to glare at me some more and I ro
>>NenaLuciel should be doing what he was asked.I hope it riles Quincey enough for him to take action. I hope he does a good job.I was sitting at the dinner table at Chris’s apartment. He lives independently that’s why we had ordered out and our pizza was going to be here anytime now.“What do you think?” Chris brought the plates and glasses, “About Luciel?” He placed the things on the table and sat down on the chair in front of me.“I don’t know,” I had my arms folded, “I just got to know him but,” There was something bothering me, “I feel like there is more to him than he shows.” I looked at Chris, “Get what I mean?”“You’re saying he’s hiding behind a fool’s mask?” He raised his brows at me.I nodded, “Yea,” I looked around aimlessly, “But it seems like he’s doing that for no deeper meaning.” I looked back at Chris, “Maybe just for fun?”“Mmhmm,” He looked at his phone when he received a text, “For now, let’s hope he does a good job.”“I feel like he will.” I leaned on the table.
