Raven The much-anticipated homecoming week fell upon us and after a long week of series of events, the homecoming dance was taking place tonight. The school was packed with past students who were eager to come back to their alma mater. My dorm was rowdy with girls getting ready and pumped up about the homecoming dance. Clarissa had sent me an expensive striped jumpsuit, knowing that I hated wearing dresses. It was breathtakingly beautiful, with intricate shimmery threads and sequins running down the sides. A small part of me sometimes wished she was my real mum. Carefully, I put on the outfit, and it fit me like a second skin while I stared at my reflection in the mirror. I admired myself from every angle, and a smile spread across my face. Taylor had expertly applied some makeup on my face. I opted for light makeup much to her disagreement. She couldn't get how I was so calm about everything and not jumping my head off. To me, it was just a normal event and there was nothing

Raven "Close your eyes and kiss me," I said softly and he broke into a lazy smile. "Which would you prefer, my lady? Heated, messy, slow, or needy?" "I want a slow, drugging kiss, "I breathed, feeling my stomach lurch. "Then a hard, passionate one." "I'm at your service," he breathed against my neck, leaning down. The kiss began softly and then built in intensity. His teeth brushed my bottom lip and I moaned as his tongue stroked mine. His mouth was soft and tasted of mint and alcohol as he kissed me passionately. He took control, cradling my head in his hands and all I could think about were the butterflies running in my belly, making me feel so good. I closed my eyes and poured everything I had into the kiss. My body came alive as Vlad increased the intensity of the kiss from soft, to hard, then soft again. The passion between us was electric. When our tongues slicked together, I liked the feel of his tongue rubbing mine. Vlad's mouth was made for kissing. They were moist

Vlad A groan escaped my lips. I couldn't believe these idiots just crowned me homecoming king. All I wanted was to be with Raven. The crown and scepter were so heavy, the metal weighing heavily against the tips of my fingers. Nova was like a prickly cactus piercing me. She was so clingy and annoying. The fact that she potentially posed a danger to Raven, even made me more irritated. "Look around, we're like the hottest couple here," she batted her eyelashes at me, smiling broadly. I returned a fake smile, hiding my annoyance. After all, I had to play nice as the homecoming king. "Lucky us," I said with fake enthusiasm. Nova wrapped her arms around mine and leaned into me. Everyone's eyes were on us. No surprise there, since Nova was a popular girl on campus and I, the quarterback and one of the hottest vampires in school. It was showtime, and we had to give them a show. "It's time to dance," she whispered into my ear, firmly pushing closer so her boobs touched mine. We ste

Raven I put my makeup bag on my desk, wiping off the cakey foundation and smudged eyeliner on my face with a dreamy smile on my face. I kissed Vlad ... Vlad kissed me. I love Vlad ... Vlad loves me. My excitement was infectious that I couldn't help laughing loudly. Thankfully the room was almost empty as most of the girls were still enjoying themselves at the hall. On our school's social media site, there were uploaded photos and videos from the party, including homecoming King and Queen. I took a deep breath and went back to removing my makeup and lipstick while trying to let go of the lingering jealousy I felt, which made no sense because Vlad was helping out. I stared at the cotton swab, which had become a riot with all the different colors of makeup on it. A small part of me worried that Nova was cooking up something very dangerous to get rid of me. My hands instinctively went to my phone. "Don't look at your phone," my subconscious warned me. As usual, I ignored it

Raven The sorrow I was feeling was all-consuming. I couldn't stop shedding tears. Taylor attempted to comfort me by holding me close, but I was beyond solace. The weight of how betrayed I felt hung heavy in the air, like a slap on the face and it choked me. My fingernails dug into my skin and I felt the primal urge to hit someone or destroy something. I needed explanations, to rid me of the ache that filled my heart. It was crazy how, in the space of a few hours, I had gone from delighted to sad. Taylor pitied her eyes and gently pulled me up. "Come on, Raven. Let's go to the dorm. We don't want to give these people a show, do we?" "No, no, no," I wept hard, and with quick, jerky movements, I pulled away from her. "I don't want to go back to the dorm." "Okay, fine. Let's go to the garden." She said with a soothing tone, squeezing my hand and then letting go. "You can get your privacy there." I agreed reluctantly and we headed to the center of the school, where the garden

Raven My tears were endless, blinding my eyes and clouding my vision. They choked me, and I felt a nauseating sinking of despair. I was nothing but a damn bastard, a misfortune, a doorstep child. It hurt so bad that I felt dizzy, and my thoughts spun. There was no explanation as to why my dad would hide something like this from me. It made me question everything I ever believed in. My dad rushed in with a reddened face and a sheen of sweat on his forehead. He attempted to hug me, but I wiggled myself away from him, creating distance between us. He looked down at me with an almost pained expression. "Baby, what's going on?" "What's going on?" I yelled at the top of my lungs. "How dare you lie to me my whole life? So I have been a mistake all along." "What the hell are you talking about?" He muttered hastily, moving closer to me. I swallowed the anguish in my throat, and my grief sank even lower with tears running down my cheeks like a leaking faucet. "Raven, please, I need you

Vlad I was restless. Staring at my blank phone, I hoped for a message or call from Raven. She was nowhere to be found and wasn't taking my calls. The bet must have really shaken her, and I never knew the stupid thing would cause problems in the future, but thanks to that bloody witch Ivy for running her mouth, Raven was pissed. I'd been anticipating the monthly night stargazing, but now, my spirit was dampened. But all vampires needed to attend which left me with no choice. However, I refused to engage in conversation with others. Instead, I stood at the back, staring blankly at the night sky and lost in thought. Every time I glanced down at my phone, I hoped to receive at least a text from Raven to make sure she was fine. Unable to focus on any particular star, I stopped trying. My friends noticed my mood and exchanged worried glances. Thorne gave me a pat on my shoulder. "Cheer up, Vlad. I'm sure she's fine wherever she is." I grunted and answered every other question wit

Raven Snoozing my alarm for the fifth time that morning I threw myself on the bed and stared blankly at the wall. Today was Monday. I was expected to put on a happy face, pretend like all was well and head back to school. A pang of hurting sadness coursed through me. My energy level was damn low to get off the bed and left to me, I'd have stayed back for a week or two. My dad and Clarissa had tried to make my weekend memorable, giving me sympathetic looks, and assuring me that I was loved. Balderdash. Their words didn't change the fact that my dad never planned to have me. I was a product of rape and finding out about this in the worst way possible stung badly. No matter what my dad said or how he tried to twist the narrative, It didn't change the fact that my mum was so vicious enough to drug his drink, sleep with him and trap him with an unwanted pregnancy. And Vlad, damn him, whom I thought was everything good in my world ended up a terrific liar and manipulator.
