Forsaking the Shadows Chapter 22
After dwelling on everything that happened to me, I had to do things on my own, just like what I had been doing even before that night. Death was inevitable. Once you’re in the reach of it, saving would be hard. I saw a lot of death, even people who were not directly involve with me. I didn’t want to witness it again, so I was sure I made the right decision.When midnight came, I snuck out of the Mike’s hideout. I stuck a note on his forehead. After reading one page of the book, he succumbed to sleep. He was sleeping like a rock. On that note, I wrote my last request to him. It was to guard my friend until morning comes and instruct my friend to go back to his normal life.I would make sure Jax would not bother Tristan after that stormy night. It was one of the reason I went to the house where Jax was staying. At first, I was not sure he was there because of what Mike had said earlier that night. But after I smelled the potent stench of blood coming from the room upstairs, I told myse

I brought Tristan back to the room he was renting. It was just a small room, so everything inside was tightly close. I couldn’t even move around that much. If I tried doing it, my feet would hit the things he had in there. Despite of being small, my friend was neat. His belongings were in place. He hanged his clothes in one corner to my left. Next to them were the small boxes where he kept his shoes. The low table where he eats and study was on the foot of the bed.I left the two butlers standing next to the bathroom and lay down my friend on his bed. He moaned and clang around my neck so I had to remove his hand. I put down his hand and covered him with the blanket. I sighed, watching him sleep. Now that Jax knew he’s connected with me, he might be in danger. Jax mind worked differently, so I had ideas of what he could do to my friend while I was unaware. I sat down on the edge of the bed and glanced at a photo of him together with Maggie. They took it when they went on a hike in the

I FELT light and refreshed when I woke up, which was the effect of Liam’s body change. Gavin was no longer with me. He left me alone in the bed. It’s not that I want to sleep next to him more. I was just wondering where he was since I remembered seeing him when I opened my eyes in the middle of my sleep.The single light from the ceiling filled the entire room. There was a change of clothes waiting for me at the top of the bedside table. I wore them while looking at the window. The curtain was still covering the glass, but I could tell it was dark outside.After I changed, I went out of the room, fixing the last button of the blue shirt I was now wearing. I couldn’t help but notice the silence. The house seemed dead. My footsteps kept on echoing in the narrow corridor even though I made my walk as light.I saw Gavin at the end of the corridor, wearing a black suit. He stopped and waited for me to reach him. He tied the bowtie tightly.“Are you going somewhere?” I immediately asked him

The room where Gavin brought me in was not that big, but it was cozy. There was nothing else inside except for the bed in the middle and the cabinet in the corner. And it didn’t have a bathroom. That room was even better than the rooms I rented before. Its size satisfied me. But Gavin seemed like my choice didn’t please him.“Are you sure you will be alright here? I have bigger rooms you can use,” he said to me. He was leaning in the doorway with his arms crossed over his chest.I turned to him because I still wanted to ask something that was bothering me.“I am okay with this one. By the way, who are you really?” I asked. I’ve been thinking about that since I entered his house.I could tell he’s not just an ordinary vampire. There’s something to him I could not comprehend.“Why are you asking me that?” he asked back instead of answering my question.“Well, I can’t help but notice how my father talked to you. He listens to your words,” I explained to him.He nodded his head when he fi

The city looked peaceful from the top of the tower. I was standing at the edge of the observatory deck where the wind blew hard, making my clothes flapped endlessly. My thought brought me there to escape the noise of the street. It was my first time looking at the cityscape at night at that height, so I was a bit fascinated. The bright lights that filled every building were blinding.I never knew a city could be that beautiful. I always saw the city as a jungle of concrete prison.It didn’t surprise me when Gavin appeared on my left. He stood next to me with his eyes, looking at the scenery below.“Can I really trust you?” I finally asked him that question.Even though he’s been truthful when I was still in my original body, I couldn’t do that fully without worries. Being in my twin brother’s body was different.He looked at my face that I could see from the side of my eye.“Of course,” he answered softly. I sighed and turned to him.“I am actually looking for my brother. My guess is

Now that the world was slowly turning dark, the house in front of me looked amazing because of its glass walls in the front. I could not tell what was inside, though. Grey curtains prevented me from seeing anything. I let my feet bring me there after Liam’s memory flashed inside my head. I was supposed to go somewhere. But since it was on the way, I checked the house first. I felt like Liam was telling me something I need to know about Jax, and that was why I didn’t hesitate to jump to its walls. Without worrying, I landed on the lawn. I sensed Jax was inside and he knew I was there also, so there was no point in sneaking. He had parked his motorbike on the side of the pathway. As I approached the house, its door opened up. Jax came out behind it, wearing only a blue robe. His front was on display, revealing his chiseled chest. He stared at me as he stood by the doorway. “So, you really remember this place?” he asked me. His stare never changed, as if he wanted to bury me alive. In

The heavy rain had made the stairway slippery on the slope of the hill. The sound it made in the umbrella I was holding seemed like a monotonous tone to my ear. With every step I took going up the stairs, the white shoes I was wearing got dirtier. It was a wrong choice that I dressed up even though my mother would not see me. All I wanted was to look presentable while I built her a grave as promised to her. We had talked about it since our last move. I had to do it in memory of her so that I had a place where I could talk to her freely. I was not blaming the rain. I was more thankful for it because I could go out while it was not dark. “Young master, you can’t just leave the mansion without telling your father,” Mike said to me, who was following me behind. I halted and turned around, making him also stop. “Call him if you wanted to. I really don’t care. Isn’t that the reason you’re here, right?” I told him before continuing to climb up. Mike held his tongue. I expected he would be

I found this room underground at the very end of a staircase while roaming around the mansion. It had a big steel door, double the size of an ordinary human. There were patterns drawn on its front that told a story about the history of my father’s family. It was hard for me to understand the flow, so I stopped checking them. I pushed the steel door instead. The clanking sound it made echoed through the stairway behind me. The moment I opened up the door, a vacant space greeted me from the other side. There was nothing inside, and water flooded the room a foot high. I turned around when I heard footsteps coming down the stairs. I saw Mike walking slowly. “What is this place for?” I asked him. I wanted to know if they used the room for conducting ceremonies. “It’s a training room,” Mike answered me as he approached me. “Master used to train his children there every day. But he suddenly stopped when you were five.” “Why?” I let go of the door and it closed on its own. It took the but

I could not believe it. I fell asleep during my first night in the mansion, even though it wasn’t long since I woke up from a week-long slumber. It made me think it was because Liam’s body was pretty exhausted. If it wasn’t for someone who was staring at me, I would still be sleeping. I was not wrong about what I felt because I found someone standing on the side of the bed as I opened up my eyes the next morning. Even though it wasn’t bright inside the room, I could see him clearly. Thick curtains blocked the windows. “Who are you?” I asked him as I sat down on the bed. I brushed my hair with my fingers while turning my head to the right to look for the butler. I didn’t see Mike next to the door where he stood before I fell asleep. “It is real that you lost your memories. This is fascinating,” the guy said to me. I sensed he would grab me, even though I wasn’t looking at him. I immediately turned my head toward him and slapped his hand, which surprised him. He even stared at his

Chapter 1
My eyes became distant as I stared outside for a moment. The rain kept on pouring and fogged up the window glass. It showed no sign of stopping, which made the air chilly. The rainwater flooded the minor road, so when the black car passed by, the water just splashed out to the bald man walking on the sidewalk. He had no umbrella and was only using his thick coat to face the rain. He lost the chance to dodge. The rainwater soaked his whole clothes, stunning him where he stood. Before the car disappeared from his sight as it drove away, he cursed at it, raising his middle finger. It wasn’t him who caught my attention, but the man standing a few feet away from him holding a red umbrella. The other man gave this eerie feeling, even from a far that I could sense strongly. There was something with the man as he stayed there on the sidewalk. The clanking of utensils and chattering inside the cafe where I was didn’t help to get rid of it. It was a year ago when I first noticed him. I though
