MELVINThe darkness was so thick that he could barely see anything, the tense and cold atmosphere brought chills to his spine. Claire had definitely gotten the best of him.Melvin was cold in his home but he was sweating. He pulled out a candle and lit it, causing the entire house to have just one beam of light.He walked into the kitchen, carefully placed it on the lid on the kitchen counter and pulled out a champagne glass. His favorite white wine was just what he needed. He poured in a glass and leaned on the counter.He gulped down the whole thing in a go and he let out a frustrated sigh."Goddammit! Everything sucks! This whole thing sucks!"Claire's words rang in his head and his grip on the glass tightened."Ahh..." He screamed in rage as he threw the glass away, causing it to smash into tiny pieces.He stared at the glass and he could relate to it. His heart was just like that glass, his heart was broken like that like. Shattered into so many tiny pieces that he doesn't know ho
MELVIN "My Lord..." Edmund called out hesitantly, as soon as he walked into the study room. He had a deep frown marred on his face because he knew Melvin wouldn't like what he was about to say. "Anything?" Melvin asked, raising his head which was buried in a pile of documents. Melvin, seeing Edmund's sour expression, arched a brow at him. "A meeting has been set up by the council. It will commence in three hours." Edmund began, though he knew his lord was well aware of the meeting."I know about that, Edmund. I have to finish these before the meeting starts, you should deal with other technicalities." Melvin replied immediately, with a wave of his hand. He tried to dismiss his guard. "There is more to the meeting you don't know about. The council members are planning something you wouldn't like..." Edmund began to explain but he was cut off."Apparently, they want me to get a wife." Melvin interjected bluntly.On the other hand, Edmund's eyes widened, realizing that Melvin knew al
MELVIN Melvin stared vastly into the empty space of his mind that was heavy with the thought of her, Khloe.He was there with his mother but far away lost in the corner of his mind , unaware of even his mothers presence.He heaved lightly as the candles flickered close to his bed rest. If there was anything he wanted most,if there was anything he wished for it would certainly be the wish to share everything he was feeling, to make his thoughts known to everyone who cared or listened.Khloe was the woman in the prophecy and that to him now was a fact."You look so lost in thought." Katherine said looking deep into her son's face it was unlike him to be quiet for this long without saying a word.Melvin looked at his mother and wondered if truly he should confide in her the words he is about to say.Yes, she was his mother and of course she was nice enough to understand but when it came to the game of hearts even the best people in the world find it difficult to understand"Mother, ther
KHLOEHER steps quickened as she walked away but not like her pacing heart, it was hard to picture and the more she tried to understand the harder it was for her to believe that what she had actually saw was real and not just her mere thoughts.When she got to her room she closed the door behind her and with her back against the cold frames of the door she placed her hands on her beating heart as if to tell it to be still.A cold tear dropped from her eyelids, when it fell on the back of her palms she was surprised at the fact that she was crying when she shouldn't be.Her brief moment of sorrow was distracted by a knock from the door.She knew it couldn't be Melvin at the door as there was no way he could have come after her.Regardlessly Khloe hesitated before opening the door, she wiped the tears from her eyes."Hello?" She said looking at the person at the door surprised, "what are you doing here?"She stared at Christopher, shocked and surprised that he was there to start with.C
MELVINWHAT were the odds when it came to fate?Just that morning he had been busy thinking of what the council had said and over the next hours he was meeting an old time friend.As much as he would try to take it off his mind something felt odd about that entire thing, what were the odds really?Melvin walked down the hallway down to Claire's room where Emma had been chattering away like old times.She had been Claire's friend back then before moving away, he had fallen for her and they've had one of the most mind blowing experiences when it came to sex and love, a mixture of the two.When she had left, a piece of him had left with her and so seeing again was like that part coming back to fit right in.No matter the way this sweet reunion should have been it was dented by the fact that a part of him was with another woman, Khloe.He had walked past her right before coming down to Claire's room and she had acted as though she didn't exist.It hurt him despite knowing that he was to b
MELVINASIDE the snowy weather everything else had been cold and frozen including her heart.It was the third day counting that she had seen Melvin kissing another and had her hope shattered.It wasn't easy but she did it anyway she ignored the very existence of the vampire prince, it was a tough thing to do as he was everywhere around the house but the pain she felt in her heart made it easier for her.Katherine looked around the table and there was no sign of Khloe for the second day. She was used to seeing her hang around since she was her personal maid but recently all she had gotten was flimsy excuses as to why she had refused to be at the table.Claire saw her mother looking and when her mother looked back at her and asked where Khloe was without using words she shrugged and Cast a glance toward where Melvin was as if to say he was to be held accountable for her absence.Katherine had gotten wind of the little encounter that had happened out in the cold snow right at the stabl
MELVIN POV"YOU need to help me get rid of her."Melvin said as he walked into his sister's room, she turned to look at him in surprise but eventually closed the door."I don't know Claire, but you need to help me get rid of Emma.""Why do you think I would want to help you, you brought this on yourself remember?" Claire said before sitting back on the stool in front of her mirror.She continued with what she had been doing before hearing him knock at the door.Melvin watched his sister braiding her hair, his heart was not exactly in shatters but he could feel it breaking.The diner had ended in silence because he didn't count Emma hapless chattering as words,his mind left the table alongside Khloe.Emma had insisted on spending the night with him and after planting small kisses near his neck and other parts she had known in the past to arouse him he had sent her away and was adamant about spending the night alone all to himself.Melvin had paced in his room, not exactly worried but
KHLOE POV.THE Evening was far from perfect.If there was anything she could use to describe the way she was feeling, it would literally be one of the worst days of her life and she wouldn't be exaggerating about it as she could literally feel her heart almost popping out of her chest with every step she took.Khloe walked through the hallway – It wasn't in its usual bubbling and lively and for a minute she wondered why it was this way and where everyone was.She could hear chattering from each door but all through her stay in the house she had hardly seen the hallway to be that way, that dry and isolated.She would have blamed the weather if it was still snowing but of recent it had stopped to snow and the evenings just like this was once cold had started becoming warmerThe hallway was mostly empty as she walked toward her room, she would be sleeping alone as her roommate had prior told her she would be staying at Edmund's room.She envied what the two had, it felt real the way
