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
Savior: A person who saves someone or something from danger.TessaA week after my run-in with the man who was called the hunter, my inside craves a little action. It was almost nine in the evening and I was still waiting for Nero. I was still getting nowhere with my wall of suspects, and I'd been spending the day lounging, watching Netflix to cross off a number from my bucket list.Binge on sappy romance movies on Netflix was my Bucket list number seven, yeah I figured I need to clean my palate since my Netflix recommendations were mostly murder documentaries and gory films. There were a couple of numbers that had been crossed throughout the week. Such as, going to the zoo where I enjoyed watching lion feeding time. I also went to the mall to shop all day buying colorful clothes though I don't know where I'd wear them so I stick to blue, red, green, and purple. All in a different shade of their darker tone, obviously.I was hoping to go clubbing with Nero tonight, he can choose which
Younglings is one that is young; especially : a young person or animal. Nero The problem started to pile up just as I was about to go back to my apartment and spent the rest of the evening with Tessa. Ammar was supposed to be on it, but then he lost track of Rigel. And then a small group of hunters managed to behead two of our younglings just because they party too hard and killed all the people in the party bus. Their sire called it a misunderstanding, a containable mistake he said. A bus of people, all dead. It was easy enough to say that the bus was en route to crashville, a perfect escape to get the vampire younglings out of the mess. Until the hunters were on to them. God, I'm too old for this mess. It took me two more hours to watch as Ammar took charge of the situation and calmed the younglings' sire and hold him off. It happened under my territory and the young sire was living in the area, a couple of blocks from my den. Ammar had managed to convince the hot-headed sire no
Sex clubs are venues that are open to the public, have a reserved entry specifically for members, or are invitation-only. Nero "So the sex club we're going to is out of the city?" "Just about, it's currently run by my youngest, Constantine." "Right, by youngest you mean?..." I laughed and told her that for a hundred-year-old vampire, he's considered young. "Okay, thanks for making me feel like a fetus." She pouted-snuggled, resting her back on my chest as if she had been doing it many times before. "Tell me, do all your children inherit sex clubs from their daddy?" She teased and I couldn't help but laugh, not caring that Aldrich was looking at me from the rearview mirror. Ammar had told me that Aldrich said that I was happier lately. And I knew the tattletale was going to rat me out to Con the second he was in front of my dear son. Aldrich always had a weakness for my Constantine. Aside from helping me practically train him since Constantine was a youngling, I could see the bon
