Patience:The ability to wait, or to continue doing something despite difficulties, or to suffer without complaining or becoming annoyed.NeroIt has been two days and I still couldn't find her, maybe she went out of town for one of her jobs, I thought easily. I should be patient. Her apartment was still there, her stuff was there, and her motorcycle was still in her parking spot. I know she was taking the car, yeah, she might be doing an out-of-town job. I should stop looking for her, she will be back eventually.So I did, and I relaxed back in my chair though my mind kept on going back to her. She was gone, my little killer was gone, I groaned from annoyance as the feeling gravitated too much for my liking."Okay, you look like you're about to rip someone's head off. Would you like to go to the mountainside with me, father?" Vesper showed his cheeky attitude that I was most certainly not in the mood for. "I'll take you hunting and chase some human jogger around their lush forest? Get
Sire: A father; the head of a family; the husband. A creator; a maker; an author; an originator. Nero. "This is my son Vesper, and my guard Aldrich," I said truthfully. "Son, this is Tessa." "Hmm... you know, what the hell, my life couldn't get any weirder," she shook his hand after sheathing her knife back in its place. She laughed softly as if the encounter was too silly for her to comprehend. The little killer then walk ahead not caring if I'd follow her or not. But then she called out, "Come on. I need to skin this and put it in the crockpot. I've been binge-eating the cheeseburger for two days now, it'll feel good to eat my kill." Vesper chuckled hearing her choice of words from behind me. I couldn't see his face but I know Aldrich was keeping his thoughts to himself. We reached her little cottage and surely enough she told us to come in. "You need me to invite you in, really? Ugh, Come on boys, might as well come in." "Beer in the fridge, wine in the cooler, and uh water
Bucket list /noun : a list of things that one has not done before but wants to do before dying Tessa Who the hell walks around the forest trail in the dark, with his son, and his guard? Apparently, it was Nero. And why would he need a guard? He said that he was a vampire, why did he need a guard? I thought vampires have cool abilities. Surely they can kill or is their power only in their kiss? Argh, I shouldn't even be thinking about him, about the kiss that leads to the mind-blowing orgasm, or in my case last night's orgasms. I took a deep breath and calm myself down. I have my issues to deal with. Three days had passed and I was nowhere near finding out who wanted me dead. I've spent most of my morning looking at the wall, browsing on my laptop, and my black book, and had managed to make more possibilities than narrowing down the list of suspects. I hate being surprised by impending death, I hate being timed. Three fucking months. I had started thinking that someone was messing
Plural noun: loversA partner in a sexual or romantic relationship outside marriage. Nero I was back at Vesper needing to have a much-needed talk before I go back home. The short time away from the city proves nothing aside from unexpectedly finding Tessa hiding out in her rental cabin, practically behind Vesper's new house. "You're going back with her?" "She had agreed to go back with me to my apartment. I'm not taking to my den." "Of course," Vesper nodded his head in understanding. He knew I wouldn't just invite a human into a house full of vampires. No matter how good she was at protecting herself, on that note I also didn't want to risk the life of the vampires living in my den knowing how good she was at killing. "Okay, now, tell me you won't cause any disturbance in the area? Or better yet, why don't you go back to the den? I'll be staying with Tessa for a while, I need eyes on the den." Vesper smirked telling me that Tessa had got me wrapped around her little fingers. "Y
Dormant:(of an animal) having normal physical functions suspended or slowed down for a period of time; in or as if in a deep sleep. Tessa I was up at seven, I never need much sleep after I hit puberty. Four hours or a maximum of five hours of sleep was all I needed for a good night's rest. When I woke up, I was alone, and the other side of the bed was cold. Though I didn't expect to wake up with the vampire, still I felt a bit disappointed not to have his arms around me when I opened my eyes. Okay, so I might be a bit clingy, but hey I blame it on my impending death. I will see you later this evening.Have a nice day.-N His note was on the kitchen counter along with my set of his apartment keys, car keys, and motorcycle keys. Damn, Nero and his minion were good with their promise. I still didn't know why he was doing it, helping me and stuff, maybe he was bored. Rich older men tend to do that, I think. Hell, how would I know? I never actually met them. I mean I do meet rich entit
Immortality:The ability to live forever; eternal life. Nero Tessa had been staying with me for almost a week now and she told me that she had been seeing Rigel snooping around the building a couple of times. Though he didn't confront her again but still, she was annoyed by the fact that the man was messing with her view. Her view. Yep. That's the kind of stuff that I'd hear her say sometimes. Random stuff that she'd say because it was not to her liking or she was uncomfortable with a certain situation, like me, sneaking out just before dawn to leave her to sleep alone. The thought that she'd want to sleep beside me and watch me basically lay dead until my body could function when the sunset was tickling my insides. I know she has a fascination with death and sometimes I think her being with me as a vampire, was feeding her cravings whenever I found her watching me with interest. Not just because she was fond of me, but because she was intrigued with my state of immortality. "Aldri
Intruder: A person who intrudes, especially into a building with criminal intent. Tessa "So, why do you keep your guest bound?" Nero finally took our attention back to the man who was zipped-tied and bleeding in front of me. "Oh, him...yeah, this guy kept on watching me. I don't think he's a pervert, so I need to know why but the man is not speaking, and honestly, I was about to cut off his digits when you came in." I smiled sweetly and showed him my trustee cutter, which made the man let out a pathetic squeak and looked at me in horror. "Oh, great, now you're scared." I shook my head and mentally blame myself for wasting time and not going ahead with the finger-cutting instead of verbally insisting on him to tell me who he was and who sent him. I was off my game, I'd been too spoiled staying and laying low in Nero's apartment. "Tell me, who sent you," my voice was icy calm, the man trembled and tried to take his hand away from my grip. "What's your name? Look, I know you don't wa
Needy: Needing a lot of attention, affection, or emotional support. Nero I was not happy when I saw Tessa getting her hand dirty when she handled Rigel's man. Ammar reported that he had specifically told Aldrich how to hand deliver the not-so-sneaky hunter. Tessa was fast asleep two orgasms later when I decided to leave her to discuss the matter further with Aldrich and Ammar back at the den. I wanted to make sure that no more hunters are going to litter my building. "She can handle herself perfectly fine, father. And you don't have to be here tonight, though it's been a while since I've seen you this upset about your companion." Ammar pointed out when I was clearly upset with what happened. "I know she can, but that's not the point. Hunters are not supposed to breach our territory without plausible cause," "Right, about that, Aldrich heard some interesting information about Tessa. I know you told me that she's an assassin, and it seemed that when she was on one of her jobs, she
