Spar

Alden dropped his teacup and went outside, while Damien tailed behind him

They got outside the house and stood at a considerable distance from each other. Alden and Damien looked at each other. It was nearing the end of the day, so the atmosphere was chilly and the breeze blew, making Alden's jacket fly in the air

Damien moved and launched at Alden, attempting to attack him which he evaded. The spar began, they violently attacked each other. If anyone saw them, they'd think they were trying to murder each other. No normal person would be able to sustain the impact from their attacks

The speed at which they moved was as fast as the speed of lightning. For a normal person, it would be difficult to tell where exactly they were. Alden put little to no effort to evade Damien's attacks. He moved as swiftly as the wind and landed a ghastly kick on Damien's back which caused him to stumble

Before he could regain his composure, Alden launched another attack. This time around, he sent Damien flying a distance away from him. Damien brutally landed on my back. Damien wasn't able to sense Alden, despite his great sense of hearing. That was how good Alden was

"Still so predictable. Anyone would be able to sense you coming from miles away with the way you breathe, so loud" Alden irritably commented as he majestically walked closer to where Damien was

Damien stood up, dusted his attire and ran to Alden. Damien's fist made contact with Alden's palm in rapid succession

"Calm your breathing" Alden yelled as he twisted Damien's wrist, moved behind him and elbowed his neck

Here's the thing, Damien is a great fighter. He would take down almost anybody in no time. Alden was just a beast in human form.

Damien was a vampire. One of the most famous and feared vampires in his world. He has been roaming the face of the earth longer than any other vampire ever has. Most vampires never cross a hundred and fifty years, but Damien already succeeded two hundred and fifty years

Sounds like a blessing, right? It's all unicorns and rainbows until the reality of life hits you. He watched his family and friends pass away. The same meaningless drama, the same cycle, it bored him to death. Damien had searched far and beyond as to why he hasn't advanced into the afterlife and how he could end his pathetic life

His life has been a cycle of one-night stands, reluctantly fighting off enemies and waiting for death to grab him by the neck. Everyone wishes to live, Damien wishes to die. Would you blame him though?

Alden, on the other hand, was Damien's best friend and part of the Royal family. Anyone with royal blood in them gets to live two hundred years, Alden already lived more than half of that period. He left his family at a very young age because he felt tied to their unreasonable royal instructions.

Alden is a terrific fighter, he would blow up anyone in seconds. The advantage he had over Damien was that he started training at a very tender age, as expected from the only direct male descendant of the Royal family. Alden on the other hand was passive about the traditions and customs of vampires. He lived carefreely and didn't particularly care about fighting. Not until, he succeeded two hundred and fifty years

"Easy for you to say" Damien got back up and the spar continued

"You move too heavily. I can predict where you are by listening to the sound of your feet hitting the floor"

"Gather your strength into what you use to attack"

"Focus, don't be distracted. Clear your mind"

This went on for over half an hour until they finally stopped

"That's enough for now" Alden said, he looked like he hadn't moved a finger since. Damien on the other hand was panting

"King Durham sent another message. He asked for you to come over" Damien reported to Alden as they went back into the house

"Ignore it" Alden replied "I have somewhere to be" Alden then disappeared into the darkness of the night

Damien went to his room. There was no light illuminating it. You couldn't tell where anything was. But that wasn't the case for Damien, a vampire, he had great sight, even in the dark.

He undid the buttons of his shirt and removed it. A huge eagle tattoo was on his back. It looked so realistic, especially its red dragon eyes. He moved the middle vase on one of his tables and the huge painting behind him moved and opened, exposing the stairs to his hidden underground room

He went underground and lit the wall candles. It looked like an ancient cave. Damien walked to the huge carved statue of an eagle and closed his eyes for a few seconds before opening them

His eyes colour changed to that of the eagle, red, and the tattoo on his back vanished. Outside, a huge Eagle hovered up above the sky and flapped his majestic wings. Damien could see through the eyes of the Eagle. He intently watched every corner of where the eagle's eyes reached

"Everything looks normal" He muttered before he closed his eyes and opened them. His eyes colour reverted to its usual blue and the tattoo reappeared on his back. He exited the underground room and leapt out into the dark

The next morning,

The bright morning sun seeped through her pink flowery-patterned curtains and rested on her face, rousing her from her slumber. Her hair was dishevelled, looking akin to a bird's nest, there was dried drool at the edge of her mouth. She slept in a starfish position, the blanket that was meant to cover her body lay messily on the floor

She groaned, rubbed her eyes, rolled over and buried her face in her pillow. The light streaming through the window reminded her that she had to get up and get ready for work

She heaved a heavy sigh. With her eyes half-closed and her body still heavy with sleep, she dragged her legs to the bathroom where she sluggishly bathed

Elsie went to bed late the previous night after creating lewd scenarios of herself and the man she met the previous day. Elsie reluctantly walked out of the bathroom, yawned and sat on the edge of her bed with her pink towel tightly wrapped around her chest

Although Elsie was still sleepy, she knew she had to get ready for work. With a resigned sigh, she got dressed and headed out the door

She saw Harry in the living room, playing games with his phone. Harry paused the game and looked up when he heard heavy footsteps approaching

"Big sis, where are you off to?"

" Where else? I'm off to work. You be quick and get ready for school" Elsie sat on the couch and buckled the hook of her shoe

"But today's Saturday" Harry replied as he took his headphones off completely

"..."

The earlier drowsiness she felt flew out of the window "What do you mean?" Elsie took out her phone from her purse and checked the day it was.

"Are you sure you're okay sis? By the way, don't go out without putting makeup on, you look akin to a zombie" Harry wrinkled his nose at her

"..."

"Jeez, didn't you look in the mirror?"

    Jeez, didn't you look in the mirror?"".." Elsie picked up her phone and opened the camera. Sure enough, her face was swollen. She looked more like a panda than a zombie. She went to her room and changed out of her dress into a more comfortable one. She layed on her bed and was about to log into her Facebook account when a call came in. Her phone's screen flashed as "Dearest" was boldly written on it. She abruptly stood up and pulled her blanket off her bodyElsie had completely forgotten she had a boyfriend, they were almost engaged in fact. How did she forget about such a thing? There she was, thinking about another man when she had a boyfriend. What a dangerous game She connected the call " Hello" She replied in her groggy voice "Hey love, did I wake you up?" Mason's voice sounded over the phone. His voice was not too deep, it rather had a calm and soothing tone "No, I woke up a while ago" She replied, feeling guilty. Mason was a nice guy. She couldn't be more grateful to God

    She jolted on the couch when she heard a loud knock on the door "C.. Could that be one of the murderers?" Elsie carefully stood up from the couch and tiptoed to the door. She opened the door enough to see who was outside. Mason stood outside holding two white nylon bags"Oh Mason, it's you. Come in" She opened the door and helped him with one of the bags he was with. "Oh my, this is so heavy" Elsie said as I held the bag with both hands "There are two bowls of ice cream in there, be careful love" Mason replied as he placed the bag he was holding on the door and came to collect the one with meElsie opened the bowl of ice cream immediately after they sat. "Yay, strawberry flavour" she took the little spoon and dug in "Harry's not home? I brought him something" Mason brought out a huge box from the other nylon and placed it on the centre table Her heart warmed up. What could be better than your boyfriend caring for your little brother as well? "Mason, you didn't have to" Elsie unders

    "Just come with me" Elsie got into Laura's jeep and they drove off. The night sky was aglow with bright city lights. Elsie let the cool night breeze caress her cheeks and mess with her hair. "That bastard dared to mess with you. It's a good thing you have a friend like me. I'll make you forget all your worries tonight" Laura forcefully hit the horn button thrice in a row as she cussed at the driver in her front " Move your damn ass. A bicycle rider would be able to drive better than you" Elsie turned to look at her. Laura already poked her head outside the window and balled her left fingers at the car ahead of them " We aren't in a rush Laura" Elsie's heart fluttered as she watched her express her anger at Mason. Elsie, clearly, was the one that got assaulted, but Laura appeared even more angered than she wasThe car soon halted. Elsie looked outside the car and saw a three-storied building. Its grand exteriors could make it pass off as a fancy hotel. She looked up at the third sto

    "What the heck happened, Elsie?" Laura ran up the stairs to Elsie Supporting her shoulders, Laura helped her up and wiped the tears off her face."What happened to you, Elsie? And why do you reek of alcohol?" Laura asked in a rather concerned tone, as she guided her through the club into her carShe sat her down on the passenger's seat and buckled the seatbelt around her while she entered through the other door"Elsie, would you answer my question? What happened in there? I told you not to move too far away from me, now look at you"Elsie's shoulders trembled and her lips quivered. She had been assaulted twice that day. She wouldn't deny that her feelings for Mason weren't too deep, but she still felt sad that he tried to force himself on her. Earlier, she hadn't felt anything other than anger. But having relived the assault incident, she couldn't help but tear downThe tears finally streamed down Elsie's face as she fell on Laura's shoulder. Laura patted her back and stroked my hair

    Elsie's lips quivered, not only from lack of response, but also from being so close to him. Ever since she saw him, his face found an abode in her head space. Elsie knew it wasn't in her being to lust after people, but somehow, the stranger standing opposite her seemed to excite herRather than sulking over her breakup with her ex, she was drawn to that stranger. As she stood close to him, her heart felt soothed as though she finally retrieved something she had long lostIt wasn't until Damien spoke up again before Elsie snapped out of her trance. He bent lower and moved his face closer to her so that they were only a few inches away from each other"Are you stalking me?" The left corner of his lip lifted into a smirk" I have no reason to stalk you. You just happen to be whereever I am. Hmph!!" Elsie folded her arms across her chest. She appeared to be mad because she was caught stalking and didn't have any justification for it The smirk on Damien's face only grew wider. He stood u

    Everyone in the room gasped, the King in addition" What nonsense are you sprouting? You better be careful with the careless words you let out of your mouth" With balled fingers, Kenneth spoke to Dylan. He then went closer to where King Durham was seated " He's a mere maid, but I'm your brother. Don't listen to his words" " You dare to tell the King what to do?" Alden walked closer to his father's seat and faced Kenneth. The hall was dead silent, so silent that a drop of pin would create a noise. Everyone present in the hall had their hearts in their throats as they awaited what would happen next The fear they had for King Durham knew no bounds. However, the fear they had for Alden was even greater. Alden gave off the kind of aura that could make anyone cower and fall to their knees before him. Not to mention, his intelligence and power height could almost be deemed impossible At that moment, Alden's gaze on Kenneth made Kenneth feel suppressed. The liquid that dripped from Kenneth

    What the fvck is that?" Scarlet cussed" She has been infected" Alden replied as he took the extract from Scarlet and began mixing it up to cure the maid. He moved as quickly as possible to get the cure ready before the scale spread throughout the maid's body. The maid was already banging the metal gate and attempting to break free. Without looking up at anyone, Alden said "Father, get someone to instruct the entire kingdom to take wary of any powdered blue substance they may find and not to come in contact with it in any way"" You heard him. Be quick about it" King Durham instructed his personal guards. The king had gotten a grasp of what was going on. The maid had been infected with Bopils dipatita. A disease caused by contact with a rare poisonous powder" And you think these extracts will fix that" Scarlet's confusion mounted. She was in the dark and had no slightest idea about what was happening. She yelped and jolted when the metal gate looked like it was about to break due to

    She couldn't recollect what happened to her in a span of five hoursShe racked her head to the point of migraine and still couldn't deduce a logical reason as to why she couldn't remember. She resigned and came to a denouement that it was all due to the stress she went through earlier that day.Her eyelids soon closed as she drifted to sleep. The job search and the trek back to her house caused her to have fatigueUnknown to Elsie, after Damien dropped her off at that street, he moved in the shadows and tailed her until she was back into her house. Unclear to him as to why he was doing that, he felt strange. He hadn't had his fill and it would be dangerous if he should stay that way for a long timeHe went into the dark, relinquished and decided to feast, enticing or not.That night, Alden left the house, hoped from the top of one building to the next until he finally reached a bare street with no building nor peopleThe road of the street was untiled and was filled with tall trees.

    Alden glanced at him " After we're done wiping that memory, you should have nothing to do with her" He unfolded his arms and left the roomAfter Alden left the room, Damien stood at a distance as he stared at Elsie. It was impossible to tell what he was thinking as he had a void expression on. The force he felt earlier already vanished into nothing. As he stood by Elsie's side, he felt contempt. Contempt mixed with hunger His canines began to itch and his eyes gave a reddish tint. A strong enticing smell hit his olfactory nerves. Damien could feel his stomach grumble. The only possible reason for his elevated hunger was the presence of a mouthwatering meal. Damien's eyes on Elsie's face went further down The spotless skin on her neck slightly covered with her hair made him want to dig his fangs into her skin. He could almost not control himself from pouncing on her and sucking her blood. Why did he get such an urge for only a particular stranger's blood? He moved closer to Elsie an
