Burning In His Crimson Love Chapter 8: Helping Hands
Verena LaytonI drag my feet out of the building. It's such a hectic day. First, it was Alan, and now the preparation of the charts. Just thinking about hopping from department to department to collect the registers makes my introverted self hide in a small hole in the ground and never come out of it until the commotion settles. I glance at Lorcan and as usual, he seems unfazed. At this point, I’m really jealous of his calm demeanor. It's his first day and after going through such hassle, he is fine. Perhaps, I am the weak one here.Pushing out a breath, I walk with my eyes glued to the ground. “Rena!” Julia’s shrill voice forces me to lift my head. “Julie?” I frown. My frown deepens when more people come into my visual field. “Amara, Orlo, Dylan? What are you doing here? What about your classes?” I quickly pressed the power button of my phone and the screen lit up. It’s 4 pm and we have HOD’s class. I look at Julia. “Don’t tell me you skipped Ms. Petra’s class and you are planning
Burning In His Crimson Love Chapter 9: Where is she?
Lorcan Judson “Things aren’t going as planned,” Dylan sighs, standing beside me. “Only if I wasn’t involved with that girl.” I shake my head. We reach the nearest stationary shop to buy the required materials. We have no idea what to buy. So, we order a few chart papers, colors of all kinds, glitters, glitter papers, and whatever girly stuff that artistic girls will enjoy. Orlo ditched us at the last moment. Otherwise, the three of us would have been discussing something productive. “Well, what is done cannot be undone.” Dylan shrugs. “What’s your plan?”“Haven’t thought of one yet.” I sigh again. It seems these days I’m sighing more than usual. I should take a break, maybe? Things don’t work like that for a crown prince. Ultimately, I have to find a way to finish my mission as soon as possible and report everything to the leader. “I won’t accompany you on your return,” Dylan says, slipping his hands into his pocket. “That’s better.” I nod. “You should focus on our mission.” I
Burning In His Crimson Love Chapter 10: Is He Worried?
Verena Layton “I’ve heard you are in a messy situation,” Zale Boris says, taking a glance at me while entering the name of the book and the borrower into the computer. Lines of worry are evidently drawn on his forehead. “Is everything good now?”He has been my friend, well, a very good friend since my freshman year. Besides Julia and Amara, he is the one I trust the most. He belongs to the Prosthetics and Orthotics (PO) department - a department that’s too foreign to us. If you are wondering how I met with a guy from an alien department, it's easy. He is a part-timer in the library and as a bookworm, I always find him here. I read and borrowed so many books that he ended up talking to me. Our interests click together and we become friends. As a student from the PO department, he works a lot and hardly has time to spend with the rest of us. So, we hardly have lunch or dinner together. “A fifty-fifty situation, I would say,” I sigh, resting my elbows beside the bunch of registers that
Burning In His Crimson Love Chapter 11: A Small Passionate Moment
Verena Layton “Quit dragging me!” Lorcan pauses and pulls his hand away from my hold. I get dragged by the impact of his force and brazenly collide against his firm chest. Ouch! I am this day old when I learn colliding with someone’s chest can actually hurt your head. Rubbing my forehead, I glare at him. “You are the one who came to me first!” I argue and I swear I won’t lose this time. “You-” He points his index finger at me and pauses. Pressing his lips together in frustration, he looks away. “You are the one who wasted my precious time by flirting with some random dude.”My jaws drop to the ground and my mouth takes an O shape. He is unbelievable. “Flirting with some random dude? Mr. Judson, he is my friend. You the random dude here!” I poke his shoulder with my index finger.“I’m the random dude here?” Lorcan hisses, raising his eyebrows almost into his hairline. “I’m your assigned detention partner and the most unluckiest guy in the world to stick up with you.”“Haw!” I narr
Burning In His Crimson Love Chapter 12: A Playful Incident
Lorcan JudsonI've officially lost my mind and the proof is yesterday's incident. I pulled that clingy human's hand against my chest, where my heart never beats, and fought to prove that I have a heart. Irony! Vampires hearts don’t beat. We lose our heartbeat the moment we become blood-sucking monsters and I'm quite used to the fact for the last 500 years. Yet, this human urged me to argue like a fool. I sensed this woman is dangerous to me ever since I felt her gaze on me for the first time. She has the potential to stir up long-buried emotions in me. Yet, I, like an idiot, gave in to her temptation. I scrub my face, as frustration fills my mind. Let's assume she got carried away in the heat of the moment because she is a 22-year-old human whose hormones dance in full swing. But what about me? A 500-year-old vampire, reacting like a teenager?I click my tongue and shake my head. I thank my lucky stars that Orlo and Dylan aren’t here otherwise they would have teased me until I l
Burning In His Crimson Love Chapter 13: How Is She So Cute?
Lorcan Judson“What?” I quirk my eyebrow, returning to the bench to have a seat. “Don’t ‘what’ me brother.” A cheeky grin is plastered on Orlo’s face. “What’s going on with that girl?”“What do you mean?” I play as oblivious as I can. I quietly pull the zip down and take my laptop out of my bag. Placing it as gently as possible on the bench, I fire it up. “Hey, don’t play ignorant!” Orlo sits in front of me and pushes the lid of my laptop, closing it. There we go. This is how my peace goes straight into the gutter and now I have to sit in an interrogation session with my nosy brother. With a sigh, I look at him. “What is it that you want to know?”Again the cheeky grin returns to his face. “Spill the tea. We are your brothers, aren’t we?” He glances at Dylan, nudging him. Dylan doesn’t speak but his gaze does the job for him, screaming in volumes. I am about to open my mouth to spin an excuse but Orlo’s voice pauses me. “Don’t you dare to lie!” Orlo shoots a playful yet warning
Burning In His Crimson Love Chapter 14: He Buys Me My Favourite Drink!
Verena Layton I sit on the floor, staring hopelessly at the ruined art paper. I poured all my energy into creating it since it was meant to go on the walls of the most important department. I sniffle, trying to hold back. I have to re-create this one. Again.Now, Lorcan is gone as well. I know I overreacted and his words meant no harm. Infact, he was worrying about me but I couldn’t help it. I stand up. Resting my hands on my waist, I raise my head and stare into the ceiling as if that would miraculously prevent tears from falling and dry my eyes. It’s okay. I can do it. I can start the graph from scratch and things will be okay. I try to assure myself but as soon as I notice myself, standing amidst the gigantic room, surrounded by the cold walls, tears fall again. I curse my fate. Only if I was a bit careful and didn’t collide with Alan. Only if I didn’t take out my outburst on Lorcan, he would’ve at least helped me with some tasks. That option also vanished with him storming o
Burning In His Crimson Love Chapter 15: He Takes A Hit For Me
Verena Layton I draw the X-axis and Y-axis on another massive chart to re-do the lost chart. I absent-mindedly run the pencil vertically as I think of Lorcan’s words. He told me to draw the graph only aand warned me not to color them. I asked numerous times but that jerk won’t tell me. Like a defeated warrior, I continue with my work. Both of us stick our asses to the floor with determination to finish the work by the deadline. We sit with our backs facing each other. It was my suggestion which I am regretting very much now. I want to see what this cold creature is doing and again, if I give in to the temptation, it will hurt my pride given how willfully I suggested our sitting position. Curiosity gets the best of me and I peek. And guess what I saw?His damn broad rectangular shoulders! They are concealing the view. I let out an angry grunt. “What are you trying to peak at, Ms. Layton?” Lorcan’s low voice echoes and catches me off guard. “I am just looking out so you won’t sla

Verena Layton “Shall we chicken out?” I whisper as I lean toward Lorcan. We have been sitting in the HOD’s office waiting for the last thirty minutes and there is no sign of her. Lady Hitler said that she had something to do and we shouldn’t leave her office unless we wanted to mess up our academic year. I know backing out at the last minute isn’t an excellent idea, given how fucked up our situation is but waiting for thirty minutes and not knowing god knows when she will arrive makes me anxious enough to churn my stomach. “If you want to be stuck in this institution for another ten years, then feel free to try your idea.” Lorcan scrolls through his phone, without caring to glance at me. This guy! Doesn’t he have even a bit, a little bit of anxiety about the outcome? Firstly, HOD won’t go easy on us, and secondly, Alan won’t spare us. Only if he doesn’t have this vampire-ish handsome face, only if I amn’t weak and obsessed with vampires, dealing with this guy will become much ea
