Alec opened his eyes, looked around the room that seemed foreign to him, creating a look of astonishment on his face. He found there were many unfamiliar medical pieces of equipment that he did not familiar with attached to his body and blood bags flowing into his body. As soon as he did not find Erna in his side, he panicked, trying to get up from where he was lying with difficulty.
“Wow, wow, Romeo. Don't try to move too much just yet. You are still in the process of recovering.”
Reflexively, he turned to the source of the voice, found the figure of a handsome woman named Bianca Pedrosa, who was also his girlfriend's best friend, who opened the door and entered the room. The woman closed the door, then walked over to him with a face full of worry and regret. Not the expression the woman showed when Erna introduced her to him at their first meeting at the cafe. The woman swiftly helped him to lie back down, pulling a chair not far from where she was.
<Bianca was confused when she heard Alec's request. She could have refused Alec's request and left, but she owed him a lot. Guilt dominated her mind for having done something she should not have done from the start. She had to comply with Alec's request, which was met with relief on the cute-faced man's face, who looked a little paler than the last time they met, even though he was in much better condition than ten hours ago. So she remained standing in front of Alec, who was looking at Erna's figure with the gentle expression that the man always showed whenever he looked at Erna (she realized it when they first met at the cafe). The way the man looked at Erna, the way the man carefully and tenderly held Erna's hand, the way the man kissed the back of Erna's hand, poured out all the feelings that were in the man's heart to Erna, she had to admit, was much better than her. It made her realize where she had gone wrong all this time. Her feelings for Erna clearly could not be compared t
Chapter 65Febrina Darren enjoyed her second glass of her Cuba libre that Gavin had just served to her a few minutes ago, with her busy eyes scanning Gavin's back, which seemed so tempting for her to touch it while enjoying the man's perfectly formed muscles under his barista uniform. There was no one near her seat since everyone there tended to choose a seat in groups.When she first came to this bar, she was consumed by Gavin's lies. Now that she knew a little more about the supernatural world, she began to suspect the identity of all the customers of this bar who must be werewolves, unlike humans in general. Her younger sister, who has a pretty thick nose after the incident twelve years ago managed to grab her sister's leg and make her sister live by relying on prosthetic legs and crutches, said that she would be able to faintly
Erna opened her eyes, blinked as soon as she felt the sunlight sneaking in through the slits of the curtains in the room that made her had to squint her eyes to block the dazzling sunlight from hitting her eyes. She awoke, confused to find that she was no longer in her bedroom. Nor was she in her boyfriend's bedroom ...Made her remember one thing that managed to provoke her tears back. She sobbed, remembering the time Alec had died in front of her while trying to save her. Her hands could not feel the warmth he always gave her when she realized the body of the man she loved turned cold. The face her boyfriend made was in agony from the pain from the many wounds the man had received from their assailant turned calm, expressionless, like falling into a long sleep, but neither breath nor heartbeat could she feel from the man. The dead man who was trying to save her from …From what? She only remembered that they were attacked by unknown people, but she did not kno
Stephen did not know what the urge had driven him to kiss Nikki's tiny lips. He did not know. It was as if his body was moving on its own as soon as he saw the woman's expression that looked very cute in his eyes. The woman also did not refuse his kiss, giving him a signal to continue the kiss until he broke the fortress he had made every time he met Nikki. The impulse from his heart led him to carry the tiny body in both hands and continue their session in his room. He swallowed many times in the morning when he looked at Nikki's back facing him without wearing any clothes under the blanket covering her body. He could even clearly see the kiss marks he had left on her body, creating a feeling of happiness and relief knowing that Nikki did not mind what they were doing at all. The time they spent last night, he had to admit, had a different sensation than all the women he had been with fo
Theodore tucked the last black coat into a large dark green suitcase, collecting it along with the suit he had also bought when he was shopping with Erick a few days ago before their date plans were delayed due to an unexpected visitor; Nicholas Southampton. Heaving a sigh of relief, he closed his briefcase while wiping the sweat off his forehead and temples with the back of his right hand. He now felt satisfied with admiring his own success. The feelings he was currently feeling were mixed. Anxious, but at the same time, he felt excited as well, remembering that it would be his first trip to Spain, his boyfriend's country of birth that he has been dreaming of visiting for a long time with the man he had loved for so many years. From the time he was born until now, he had never dared to set foot out of the Waterford city area as his father always forbade him to do so, saying that he was n
If he were, to be honest, this time really was not the right time to do what humans generally call it as a 'recreation' in the midst of an increasingly precarious situation. Spain was indeed a beautiful country, with Madrid city, Barcelona city, as well as Catalonia city which have been the cities of his dreams since he found out about Erick's home country. After his father was brought by Pedrosa's elders to be tried for all his crimes together and almost sacrificed all the vampire groups who joined Pedrosa's group to William Schneider (according to Erick's narrative, who asked him not to ask again about Phillip forever), everyone who used to underestimate him immediately turned to respect him. Changing their attitude one hundred and eighty degrees, hailing him as a hero to a degree that made him feel a little uneasy. He was used to receiving insults and insults, experienced in accepting negative experiences and attitudes from everyone, b
It was indeed, a pretty weird atmosphere. Karl sat in the chair opposite Stephen with his long legs crossed, his hands resting on his right knee, waiting for Stephen to explain to him his sudden change of attitude towards him. In front of him, who had lived for hundreds of years and seen the many dispositions of everyone based on his experience, the man was clearly hiding something from him. Even the message he had sent to Stephen was only read by the man. The familiar thing he did, reminded him of the way he had tried to avoid him when he first reunited with Nikki after twelve years. The problem was, he did not understand what the man was hiding from him, so he let the awkward atmosphere continue. And now, he was waiting for him to explain to himself the reason behind his annoying attitude to him. “Hello, Boss! Sorry, I'm la
“I-ignore? W-who?" the man dodged, avoiding eye contact with him. He got up from his chair re-emitting his dragon aura, gathering it into a strand of plant roots that moved along his palm that did not intercept the man's hand like a heartbeat, then brought it closer to the man until it hit the man's temple a little. “Once again you dodged my question and you will leave me with no options but to read your mind and force you to look at your own memories. How about that? Do you want to answer my question now or let me read your memories?” The man stared alternately between him and his hand. The reaction of the man's frozen body was enough to give him information that the man was considering his words. After a few minutes later, the man took a deep breath, giving up. "Look
“Montessa! Is the time spell ready?”Bianca called out to Montessa as she ran up to Montessa. He played with the glocks still in his hand, then returned them to Montessa. “Thank you for wanting to lend me your weapon.”"Yes. Already!" On Montessa's right, a dimensional portal appears that is the same as Nora's, but has a lighter colour. Montessa's eyes turned to the soldiers who were now running like crazy after stuffing the glocks into their pockets. "What's wrong with them? What did you do to them?”"It's not the important thing you should be thinking about," Bianca patted Montessa on the shoulder. "Can we go in now? I hope your spell won't throw us into the wrong timeline.”“Hey, what you said hurts you know!” Montessa defended herself. “I always succeed in casting my spells when it comes to time magic. “And yes, it is safe. We're going back to the 21st century.”"Good," he turned his head back, looking at Erna's figure standing behind him.Erna's hand gripped his hand tightly, vis
Can they say that the mission was a success or not? That question kept popping up in Bianca's mind again and again as they ran to avoid the pursuit of the royal guards. In front of her, Montessa ran along with Felicia Chen, whom they managed to release from prison. All she knew, for now, was that she couldn't let go of Erna's wrist, which was running behind her. “How much longer we should wait!?” she shouted at Montessa, who was in front of her. "What?! I didn't hear your question, Pedrosa!” Montessa called back to Bianca, then turned his gaze back to the front as he saw more and more royal troops chasing the two of them. “I'm trying to recover my magic energy! Buy some more time!” “Easy for you to say, old man!” Bianca pulled Erna into her arms when she saw one of the royal troops trying to cut Erna with his sword. She parried the sword using his leg kick and threw the sword so that it stuck into one of the trees around the forest path. “Montessa! Lend me some weapons! There are
Karl hummed happily and fell in love with the new magic sword Alec had created for him. The sword that belonged to his grandfather, which he gave to Nora in exchange for Veronica's safety (he did not regret his decision at the time), he could indeed use without the slightest problem. But in all aspects, the sword was out of character for him.First, in terms of design. He was actually not a fan of swords that had lots of carvings on them. His taste was very different from his grandfather's sword, which has that element. In terms of the magical energy that can be absorbed by the magic sword inherited from his grandfather, there was not much the sword could absorb from his energy, because the sword inherited from his grandfather tended to use the emotions of its user.When his grandfather was still alive, his grandfather was the type of person who was easily provoked by anger. That disposition of his was also justified by his life principle of glorifying the dragon race. From the pas
Until an hour ago, they were still at Alec's house, trying out the new magic weapon Alec created.But right now, he and Karl and Stephen are busy helping Alex and Nicholas to kill the monsters that come to Alec's house.The monster was like Alec's description a while ago while visiting Pedrosa's residence. He had never come face to face with a monster created by William Schneider, so he was very surprised to see the real shape of the monster.He slashed one of the heads of the monsters that were about to attack him with their canine teeth. Their blood spurted out, hitting his body, emitting a strange hiss.There was a feeling of pity in him as he looked at the corpse of the monster in front of him. Recalling what Karl had said about the origins of the monsters, he felt some sympathy. In the past, these monsters had a quiet life.If it weren't for William Schneider, they might still be enjoying their quiet lives right now...A feeling of hatred for William Schneider welled up inside Ve
William tapped his fingers nervously on his desk. Currently he was in his office at the university where Veronica Darren studied, with an irritated and bored expression.He didn't care about the rows of work piled up on his desk. Or the list of files in his email when he turns on his computer as soon as he enters his study.Or the attention of the students who tried to approach him. Or also the fact that at work, there are so many bouquets of flowers, snacks, or gift boxes of various sizes filling the room.He didn't care about that.All he cared about was Veronica Darren's presence. But since two weeks ago, that woman has not been on campus at all, nor has she attended any of her classes. Even though the woman submitted her course work via e-mail about three days ago.Where has Veronica gone? What happened to Veronica not to show her nose on campus? Even though he had gone to great lengths to infiltrate the university as a lecturer so he could approach Veronica.Now, he felt like an
Don't do anything flashy, huh?Both Erna and Bianca looked at Montessa with deep eyes. Because of Montessa's stupidity that didn't estimate the risks that would occur if she went straight to the prison, the royal guards immediately arrested the three of them and took them to a room in the prison building.There were no windows around where they were, so all they could do was guess how long they had been there. There were only flaming torches hanging on the walls to illuminate the place.Even more annoying, the room was so damp and smelly, that it was difficult for him to feel comfortable staying in this place for a long time. He even admired the fighting spirit of the people who used to languish in this prison.Across the prison they were in, there was an old woman with a shabby appearance who kept cursing in a language she didn't understand towards the prison guards who were passing through the corridors of the prison."I didn't expect that the plan I made would end like this," Monte
Erna's eyes narrowed, looking intently at Bianca who was running excitedly along the path in the forest. Montessa suggested that they change into what people of the time they are currently in, so the man cast a spell to change their clothes.She was dressed in a duchess outfit that was so sparkling, dark blue in color and looked so beautiful that she couldn't take her eyes off of the dress she was wearing.But that wasn't what made it hard to focus on the mission this time. But because of Bianca. His girlfriend was wearing a 15th century gentleman's suit. Clothes that seemed to be created just for Bianca to wear, even though she knew that Montessa changed Bianca's clothes into men's clothes because she always forgot the fact that Bianca was a woman.Bianca didn't protest at all, of course. He knew that Bianca liked the androgynous appearance despite her always claiming to be a fully woman, so he shouldn't be surprised to see Bianca's current appearance.Yet, she found herself falling
She regretted her decision.She meant, she really regretted it.Erna looked at the environment around her with uncertain feelings. She was no longer in the 21st century with the technology and practicality offered by that century. But they were now around five centuries ago when technology and the internet were not yet available and witch hunts were still a common practice."It looks like we've come to the right time."Right now, Montessa was proudly standing to her right, using his magic to brush away the dirt and grime from his clothes. The man did not even pay attention to the fact that thanks to his goddamn time dimension magic, she and Bianca fell flat on the ground until their clothes were all dirty.Montessa did not even tell them or give any signal that they were going to land in the middle of the forest. Montessa only asked them to jump into the time dimension magic as soon as the man finished casting the spell.Yesterday he decided to agree to Montessa's offer by becoming th
Karl responded to Stephen's words with a low laugh. "Actually, there's something I don't understand." "Yes?" “Why did you make me a magic weapon? Moreover, from my knowledge, ordering magic weapons from the Berthold family is very expensive…” “In my opinion, the lives of living things are more expensive and valuable than the Berthold family's magic weapons,” Karl shoved his hands into his trouser pockets. “For me, you and Karen are the most important people in my life. I already consider you like my own family, and I know you love Karen too.” "I …" "Don't deny it, Steve. How long do you think I know you?" Karl looked up at the ceiling of the room. “Our current situation is so chaotic. War. The problem of racism in the Dragon clan. A showdown between vampire families. Somehow it feels like there are so many problems coming our way that I can't spare my spare time to go on a date with Karen. It sucks…” "I feel guilty too," Stephen said. “Last time I asked Nikki out, my brother cam
