"I hear you have joined our ranks," he leans in to kiss my forehead." My eyes narrowed, my gaze fixed on Niklaus as he entered the room. I could feel his presence, his power, and it both intimidated and intrigued me. I could smell him and he smelled even better than Lacy did. I wanted to bathe myself in his scent. I moaned, and he smiled almost as if he knew my thoughts. "Hello, Niklaus," I said, my voice sultry and sweet. Niklaus's smile widened as he approached me. "Ah, my dear, you are a vision of loveliness as a vampire. I must say, I'm In love with the new you." Kie is a fool.My expression turned cold as Niklaus mentioned Kie.

Chapter 46 Burial at Sea While they relaxed on the beach after an awesome day of adventures. Their maid served them their Island wine. Lyra sips and moans with delight. "Thank you love, This trip is all I dreamed it would be." she smiled at him, but then something moved in the bushes as they turned to look, They laid eyes on a frail figure trying to run, but falling every few steps. The girl, barely more than a teenager, stumbled towards them, her eyes a turquoise blue with golden flecks was sunken and her skin pale. "Please... help me," she begged, collapsing in the sand. Lyra rushed to her side, cradling her in her arms. She was soaking wet like she had swam into their lagoon."What's wrong? Are you ok??" The girl's eyes locked onto Lyra's, her voice barely audible.

"Guys, I have a secret to share. There's a reason I wanted to come home before going back to college." Bella and Matt exchanged curious glances. "What is it?" Bella asked, her eyes sparkling with intrigue. Karma's grin grew wider. "I want to become a vampire, a Hybrid, like you guys." Matt's eyes widened in shock. "Whoa, Karma, that's huge!" Bella's expression turned thoughtful. "But why? You're amazing just the way you are." "I don't want to be different from my family anymore." Karma's face lit up with determination. Just then, I walked into the room, a hint of a smile on my face, happy to have them back home. I hugged the

"Lyra, I've tried everything, but... I can't save you. I don't even know what's causing this."Matt's eyes locked onto Lyra, his gaze filled with a mix of sorrow and determination. "I know what's causing this, Doctor," he said, his voice firm. "It's Shade. I've seen it in my visions. He's behind this."Dr. Brooks' expression turned skeptical. "Shade? But how? What could he possibly...?"Matt's eyes blazed with conviction. "He's been planning this for years, Doctor. He's been waiting for the perfect moment to strike.

They hug and welcome them making room at the table, But Niklaus, a man who likes to get straight to the point, goes straight to Sophia, his face grave with determination, as he pulls out the chair next to her and Sam and stares at her trying to figure out if she is worth his effort. "Sophia, we need your help," Kie said. "We need to summon Erzulie Red-Eyes, the loa of vengeance. Can you arrange a meeting with the Voodoo priest?"Sophia's eyes narrowed, her expression serious. "That's a dangerous request. Erzulie is not to be trifled with. But I understand your desperation. I'll speak to my connection, and we'll see what we can do."She paused, her eyes widened with a hint of concern. "But be warned, the loa of vengeance will not come cheaply.

(He had intercepted her on her way to get groceries, snatching her from the limo screaming and fighting him, as he dragged her down to his lair through a portal he had created.)"Ah, Raven," he whispered, his voice dripping with sinister sexual intent.

As he spoke, he snapped his fingers, and chains materialized, binding Raven to the stone wall. She struggled against them, but they held fast.Shade chuckled, his
