Catalina’s POV

Thaddeus became such an important person in my life, I don’t want something to happen to him, and I guess it will shatter me into pieces if he’s not with me. I rolled over on the bed and kept thinking about him since I couldn’t sleep. I can think of as much as I want, but he can’t even read what’s in my mind.

I got up, walked into his room, and cautiously opened the door. I just wanted to take a quick look at him in case he stepped outside again without informing me. The door suddenly shut, which surprised me. I gulped and took a step back to try to unlock it, but I couldn't. Then someone grabbed me around the waist, and I gasped and stuttered. "I….I—I d—didn't—"

"Catalina, what are you doing here?"

My brain went completely blank, and I had no idea how to respond to what he said. When it was dark, red lightning appeared in his eyes, gradually subsiding, leaving his eyes their usual color.

"I'm not sure what it is that you want...Tell me, what it is that you desire?

    Catalina’s POV “Just dropped me in my Dad’s building,” I told the driver, and he nodded his head. As I was about to step out, the driver said, “Does Mr. Gualtiero know you’re—” I raised my index finger and said, “Sssshhh, no, don’t tell him about this. This is my plan.” As I entered the building, everyone stopped what they were doing and stared at me at what am I doing in Sullivan’s Empire. Do they know that I’m the heiress? Maybe not. Maybe Lily tried to tell them the lie. “Miss Catalina?” The guard stopped me in the middle of the hallway, and I glanced at him. “Yes?” “Miss Catalina, you are banned from stepping foot in this building,” he said with a nervous face. I put my hands on my hips and asked, “Why?” "Catalina, why in the hell are you even here?!," the woman, who appeared to be in her fifties and had been wearing sunglasses, demanded in a stern voice. "I'm here because I'm my father's daughter," I scoffed while adjusting my long sleeves. "Don't you remember?

    Catalina’s POV"Why can't I trust him?" I inquired about this as Thaddeus and I made our way into the woods; I had no idea where he was leading me, but I trusted him more than any other human.He responded with a hoarse whisper, "Because he's not good for both of us." "I've known him since we were little, but I don't understand why you're acting like this. I don't know what's wrong with you. He is a good friend of mine, and he handed this to me. I said in a shaky voice while showing the ring to him on my index finger. He removed the ring on my finger, and I asked angrily, "What do you think you're doing?" "He put something within this ring, a drop of holy water, which is why it is difficult for me to stay near to you; in fact, it is far more difficult than it was before." Thaddeus looked at me with a serious expression and placed the ring on my palm before telling me, "You need to give this back to him." "Is he…Is he a member of the Vampire Hunter's Organization?" I asked with some

    Catalina’s POVAfter getting a call, he kissed my forehead and said, "I have to go." I just scowled and felt like there was something wrong with me. I want him, but every time I want him in bed, something terrible happens.“Miss Catalina, your bathtub is ready.” The maid said. With a subtle nod of my head, I make my way toward the bathroom, eager to unwind and release the tension that has built up throughout the day. The amalgamation of pressure and excitement has exhausted me, and I need rest. As I sink into the warm water, I feel my body begin to relax, and the monotony of the day slowly fades away. I closed my eyes until I fell asleep and dreamed of my dad. It was so dark I couldn't see my father, but I could hear him saying, "Catalina, save yourself. Claim what is rightfully yours, for it is not meant for those who are undeserving."When I opened them, I felt a sharp pang in my chest as I recalled my father. I slumped in the corner and sobbed uncontrollably. "D-Dad...." I dried

    Catalina’s POVIt was just a small cut and nothing serious, but his face was all written like it was something horrible that he needed to heal the cut so properly, or he would collapse from smelling my blood. He applied a bandage to my wounded foot while staring at my face."I was not always like this...it's only that the smell of your blood turned into an addiction for me." He was trying so hard to swallow, and his Adam's apple moved back and forth as he spoke. "Like I was needing it all the while...." "Why don't you simply bite me and get over it?" I inquired as if I were not considering the repercussions of my actions. He laughed about how I had stupidly offered myself to him, and he shook his head and kissed the back of my hand, making my heart throb again for him.“No…I don’t want you to be a blood slave of mine, you are so important to me, and you are my wife." I let out a soft sigh and looked into his eyes, which had been staring at me the entire time, "Do you want to go with

People stopped what they were doing as soon as they saw my Vampire mate, Thaddeus Gualtiero, and I entered the building. Their eyes glittered in wonder at the shine and brilliance of my sultry gown. Then they stare at Thaddeus, who was tall and dangerously good-looking, but he also has a violent streak within him. While Leila was talking with a few guests, one of them said, "Look! Oh, wow! Here comes Catalina!" Leila was astonished and said, "W-WHAT?" The men inside are staring at me from head to toe, and then Thaddeus put his hand on my waist and softly stroked me while whispering, "I'm a vampire, and it bothers me when they keep staring at us. I could hear their dirty thoughts about you..." I smiled at him, “Don’t mind it, just be with me tonight.” Leila walked toward me because I was now the focus of everyone's attention.

The maids were nowhere to be found, and Salvatore was nowhere to be found either. So I asked, "What's going on?""Do you think that humans have always been kind?" He asked in an angry tone, and his eyes became tinged with red. I blinked my confused eyes, shook my head, and muttered, "I don't know what you're talking about, Thaddeus! I'm just curious as to why you messed up my plans!"He turned toward the wall to flip the switch on the lamp in the far corner, and while he was doing so, he could not look at me with his angry expression. I am aware that he had built up a lot of fury inside of him that he wanted to let out, but he could keep himself under control so that he wouldn't cause any trouble, especially since I was here watching him."They killed Salvatore." He hit the wall with his fist, and the whole building shook. I stepped back in fe

    Catalina’s POVI gently opened my eyes and had no idea where I was or how I got into this strange place. Fear crept up on me as soon as I picked up the odor of blood permeating the entire building. I had a strong desire to throw up. I could hear individuals crying out for help, but no one seemed to be coming to their aid. I attempted to stand up, but I was bound in so many places that I fell back on the chair I was sitting in. Both of my wrists and feet were shackled together. I could not move any part of my body, so I screamed for help, hoping someone would help me, "HELP! Is anybody there?" "Oh, my god." I saw clearly that the room was covered in blood, and some humans were there, and they were all dead. "Oh my god!" Fear and the want to flee got the better of me. "Oh my god! Help!" I was terrified to the point where every part of my body was trembling. My eyes started to well up with tears, and I found myself crying constantly.

    Catalina’s POVRaymond drew me up while he grabbed my wrist and forcibly opened my hand. After that, he leaned closer and looked straight into my eyes. Because he is not Thaddeus, and because this man is not as good as I believe he is, being too close to him makes me feel highly uncomfortable. After committing murder and torturing humans for the sole purpose of extracting their blood, he proved to be a poor commander due to the fact that he is a self-centered being. "I can't read her thoughts either, and I can't attack her internally. I have no idea what's happening, but this woman is nothing more than a weak and helpless human being! What possible defense does she have against us?" Raymond mumbled something under his breath before gazing at Bianca, who was standing in the background. The soldiers stationed in the nearby corner were also taken aback, and one spoke up. "It's possible that she's a bad omen! Because we don't know what else she is capable of, we believe it is best to el

I'm sitting next to him in our bed, giving his lips a passionate kiss to rouse him from his slumber so we can eat breakfast which was delicious fresh blood from animals that we hunted last night. He groaned as he wrapped his hands around my waist and pulled me in for a kiss."I love you..."“I love you too…” And my tummy isn't very noticeable yet; I'm not sure why; perhaps it's because I don't have a massive baby bulge like the other woman. In addition, I am one month and two weeks pregnant.

    Catalina’s POV"Behold, the bride has arrived!" The minister continued, and all eyes turned to the bride as she made her way down the aisle. She looks so attractive and sexy, and her svelte figure perfectly matches her stunning wedding dress. It was a moment of pure delight when she smiled at me, and I know how appreciative she is that Thaddeus and I were a part of her wedding day. While we gazed at one another adoringly and Thaddeus gently stroked my palm, he communicated with me through a mind link, saying, "I love you..." In return, I gave him a grin and asked, "Do you know why I love you so much?" "Why?""Because you never stop showing me how much love you have for me." When Leila and Salvatore kissed in front of the three biggest groups of vampires, they proved that our hearts, not our heads, decide who we fall in love with. Like the love between Thaddeus and me, this is undeniable. All my waiting for him paid off since he finally came home for me, and he never tires of chasi

    Catalina’s POV"Yes, Thaddeus is here to put an end to these two scumbags." I smiled proudly as I said it. "No, you can't kill my brother!" said Connor. "He's no longer your brother, and he's no longer Arthur! Connor, open your eyes!" I said as I yelled at him. He put his hand over her ear and said, "No, I won't listen to you. I will do anything to protect my brother." “Connor what the fuck are you doing?!” I saw him trying to help his brother get up, but Arthur bit his neck and stretched his face with his claws. I sighed as I saw him with deep regret in his eyes when he glanced at me. He grabbed Arthur’s head and pushed it against the wall while trying to put the injection on Arthur’s body but it had no effect. I have no choice but to kill Arthur in front of Connor, so that he could wake up in reality that Arthur was already dead, and the man in front of him was not Arthur. It was a Hybrid Zombie who wants to cause chaos with everyone. Connor yelled at me, and cried hysterical

Connor, please believe in me, there’s still good vampires out there….” I sighed in frustration, “Oh, I’m a good vampire….one of their kind bit me, and turned me into this!” I pointed to myself, and my eyes darkened red. Leila didn’t even move away when she saw me like this, she cupped my face and said. “You are not a monster, Connor. You’re good, you haven’t changed at all.” I laughed softly and said. “I have never wanted this in my life, and they turned me into one of them, that's why I hated them….I want them to vanish in this world!” I stood up and was about to leave her but she was just still sitting there watching me, and observing my behavior. “Is Salvatore saying all these things to you?” She didn’t answer me, and she took her purse because I think she’s done with

    Connor’s POV"Hey, I need to get out of this place! I'm sick and tired of waiting for my life to end; why can't you just put an end to it and stop causing me to suffer each and every day? I want to die!" Theodore grumbled to himself while locked up in his sweltering cell. He appeared to be a monster as I gazed at him from head to toe; his eyes were melting, and his skin was turning gray; he looked like a monster now, the kind of monster that no one would ever want to see in their life. He looked so fucking awful that I couldn't look away from him. I laugh in satisfaction, “Well, look at you. You are so dead now, but not totally dead yet. You deserve to be tortured in this way, so that you will know how painful it is about dying!” “My son took your mom, do you think my son has tortured your mom this way?” I had not considered that possibility, but if Thaddeus were responsible for what happened to my mother, I would see to it that his father meets an unthinkable end.

    Catalina’s POV"If I really wanted to murder you...I would have done it already right now. But not yet, not too soon. Just wait for it." I responded while rolling my eyes and taking Leila with me as we exited the room that was filled with their terror due to the presence of the two older women within. I sat down in the secluded area, took a few deep breaths, and asked myself, "Why is it that I no longer feel any guilt? and I'm—" I can detect the odor of blood; someone has cut themselves out there, perhaps because they are running for miles. I could picture him wetting a dry cloth and applying it to the minor cut on his knees to staunch blood flow. I have my eyes closed and am concentrating on the smell. I need some of that blood. Damn it. When Leila called my name and yelled at me, I didn't even bother to look at her; I just continued running. "Catalina! Where do you intend to go?! Catalina!" I didn't want to hear her voice, and I didn't want to stop running; I needed to find the m

    Catalina’s POVBecause I know Leila is lying to me, she does not want to look into my eyes when we are conversing. She knows something about Emily that she will not disclose to me at this time. I gave her a friendly smile and reassuring words, "There is no longer any need for you to be concerned about Emily. You've matured, and now, if she is sent to prison to pay for everything she's done to our family, everything that our father has left to you will be yours. You will one day receive what you have worked so hard for, which is a life that is rich with fulfillment."She cast a quick peek across to Salvatore, who was still having a conversation with Thaddeus. After that, she turned her attention back to me. "Do you want to see Emily and Jessica?" My curious eyes lit up, and I asked, "Where are they? Are you able to show me the way?"She held my hand and said. "Yes, Of course. Come with me." Leila and I walked inside, to the hallway, and I tried to act as human even though I wanted t

    Thaddeus’ POVWhile waiting for the outcome, I was already not fine; I was anxious all the time while Salvatore and Leila were gazing at me all the time. They were also not sure what would happen in the following few hours. They both glanced at me with anxious eyes and sat next to me to make me feel better. But I am not even okay. My mind was full of thoughts right now that I didn’t even wonder if it's good to think about it. “Hey, Thaddeus. It’s going to be fine, just don’t pressure yourself because you look like you are going to explode in worry.” Salvatore said. I cocked my head to the side to cast a sidelong glance in his direction and said, "You don't know anything about being worried, Damn. I have a lot of concerns regarding her; in your opinion, do you believe she will be okay? I am aware that my heart has stopped beating, but for some reason it felt as if it was going to burst out of my chest because I was so terrified that I was going to lose her at any moment in time."Sa
