Chapter 23

The tension in the truck would give any blade a hard time to cut through. Everyone was silent but still, the unspoken words were deafening. Everyone was battling with their inner thoughts and battles.

Feria was stealing gazes once in a while at Rose. It was taking every fiber in her being to stop herself from stretching out and burying her fangs in the latter's neck.

Why the hate? There were a lot of reasons why she was upset.

Feria usually wanted the front seat for the ride. She had hopped into the truck with the hopes that Grim would be the one driving.

But she was disappointed when it was Dale who had hopped into the driver's seat. Dale was pissed that he was the designated driver. He had expected his younger brother to take the wheel. He wanted to protest, but he already knew what Grim's response was going to be.

“I am the ruler and I'm ahead of you. When I give you an instruction, I expect you to obey.”

Not ready to be embarrassed in front of the others he had q

    Chapter 24Grim has spent the majority of the trip watching Rose sleep. As fate would have it, the woman drifted to him, putting her head on his shoulder. She looked so innocent in her slumber. It came as a surprise to see her in such a calm state. For a moment he was beginning to doubt his plans for her were the right thing. They had only spent the past hour with each other and he was already rethinking his actions. But when he remembered what was at stake here, he snapped out of his delusion. Meanwhile, Rose couldn't contain her excitement. She was finally going to see her mother. She turned to hug Grim out of excitement but held herself back. Everyone stepped out of the truck. But Rose delayed a bit. She didn't have to worry about her luggage, Judy had already gone to get it. She was more bothered about the environment they had just arrived in. She had expected to be taken to some beautiful vampire pack that was crawling with people and beautiful scenery. Instead, she saw h

    Chapter 25Grim was conversing about something random with Dale when he saw Rose approaching. He knew a time like this would come so he prepared himself for this conversation. “Where are we, Lord Grim?” She asked, getting in front of Grim to block his path. “For the tenth time, it's ‘My Lord' to you,” Grim scolded. “Please answer the question. I was hoping to see my mother. I have no plans to fight a war.”“You're not here for that. These are the men that are going to help us find your mother.” “You said that she was going on a courtesy visit. What do you mean by they're here to find her? Is there a chance that she is lost or is in trouble?” “She didn't reply to the messages we sent out to her. This is the only way that we can find out what happened to her. They're here to help us.” Dale walked behind her and placed a hand on her shoulder. “There is no need to be scared. You'll get to see your mother in no time.” Grim couldn't stand watching Dale hold her like that. He wanted to

    Chapter 26Wanted? Rose couldn't understand why her mother was being wanted. How could a hero be wanted? She couldn't see what was written clearly but there was a list of reasons why Vanessa was wanted. It was confusing. This didn't sound like the Vanessa that she had heard about. Rose walked towards the poster. Right then a pair of telescopes would be highly appreciated but unlucky for her they are not lying around anywhere. She looked around. No long rods were lying around. The only thing that would give her a clear view would be climbing onto one of the buildings, especially the one that overlooked the pole directly. A strong wind swept by brewing up dust and dirt. Rose muttered insults for the breeze until she noticed that it was in her favor.The poster was swaying in the breeze. It was barely hanging on to the pole. One side of the paper was already off the pole while the other half was still stuck. Rose waited under the pole ready to grab it. When it finally came off, it

    Chapter 27By the time Rose returned to the table, the food had been exhausted. Every flesh of meat has been cleared out and the jug of blood has been exhausted. “Too late, Rose. I had quite an appetite today,” Feria sympathized mockingly. “There are some leftover bones in the plate for you.” Feria pointed to the bones in a bowl, the same bones she had conveniently crunched to bits. “But those are already eaten?” Rose muttered shockingly. Her face exuded disbelief but her heart exuded happiness. Feria scoffed. “The way I see it, you either suck on these bones or you stay hungry until the next meal.” She paused to down a cup of blood. When she lowered the glass she stood up. “Also Rose, make sure you clean the table.” Grim stood up and accompanied her as they made their way back to the room they shared. He felt pity for Rose for how she was treated but he stayed out of it. He planned to take her out later in the day and he would get her something to eat. Right now he needs to res

    Chapter 28 Rose stood transfixed staring at the figure leaning on the doorpost. Her first thought was that she was sleepwalking but nothing about those wide-opened eyes said that she was in a slumber. “What are you doing here, Judy?” Rose asked, clearing her throat. She was sure that she had applied the sleeping liquid to the food in enough amounts to knock everyone out. How then did Judy manage to escape being affected? “Nothing, Ma'am. I was just looking for you. When you didn't come back from dinner I was worried. I had just walked out of the room when I found you here.” Her words are calculated and she didn't want to give off her true intentions. Rose was baffled. She couldn't stop wondering if the other woman had seen her take out the poster from Dale's coat. If Judy was awake did that mean that she had noticed her walk into the room before?“Oh, I was just rounding off a few things before I came to rest. I was about to walk past when I noticed Dale's door was open. I wan

    Chapter 29 The only way out seemed to be the window. Rose slung the satchel over her shoulder and walked to the window. It was just a floor down but it looked like she was gazing down a steep bottomless hill. At the end of her view was a trashcan loaded with trash. “Please tell me we are not landing on those bags of trash,” Her wolf said. “We have no choice, Daisy. Either we get out of here now or risk being hanged in front of everyone.” That was the most gruesome death Rose could imagine. “Never!” Daisy rebuked. “Then brace yourself for impact. We are jumping out of here and we are jumping out of here now!” This time the banging on the door has increased. It was so intensified that Rose began to fear that the door would give way. She first dropped the satchel off watching it fall into the bags of trash. One of the trash bags expanded as soon as the satchel landed on the heap. Rose climbed on the window frame looking down at the incinerator hoping that she would make a safe

She looked at her legs and all the wounds that she had sustained while running away were cleaned and healed. She turned to see Judy at the other end of the fire. The latter was watching the flames as she brandished a penknife on a rock. “Where the hell are we?” Rose asked, looking around. It felt like they had fallen into a hole.“We are in a cave I spotted on our way coming here. It should give us enough shelter for the time being until we can figure out what is going on.” But her words didn't bring Rose comfort. “What about the guards? Did we lose their trail?” “Yes, we lost them a long time ago. Judy grabbed a cup of freshly brewed tea and handed it over to Rose. “Take this, it should help with the headache.” Rose peered at the drink with a skeptical gaze. Just smiled. “Don't worry I will not try to drug you like you did to me. It

    Chapter 31Rose jumped out of the bed she had been placed in and raced to a corner of the room raising both hands in surrender. “Please, don't kill me, please. I'll do everything else you want but please don't kill me,” she begged. There was no escaping this time. Grim looked at her with concern. It was kind of hilarious that the woman who had been making fun of him would be so terrified of him. Meanwhile Rose saw death flash before her eyes. This is not being said metaphorically, poetically, or in any other fancy way. Grim looked like death straight up to her. Only when her back was pinned to the back of the wall did she realize that her dizziness had set in. It came like a wave and she had to place one hand on the wall to avoid slumping from her weak knees. Her first instinct was to look for the best way of exiting the room. The door looked back at her seductively but she knew she wasn't getting to it before Grim, especially in her weakened state. The window was the worst optio

    Chapter 34It still felt like a dream hearing Grim speak the truth. She would never have taken him to stoop so low to not only say the truth but also apologize for what he did. “He went on his knees and begged for your forgiveness?” Judy repeated just to be sure she heard right. Could you blame Rose for spicing the details? She may have exaggerated some of the details of how it had happened but now that she saw Judy's reaction it was worth it. By now they had returned to Nostville. Lord Grim had specially put Rose in charge of taking care of him. That was the only way he could think of getting her to spend more time with him on the ride back home. As you would expect, Feria wanted to skin Rose alive but the warning from Grim stopped her from making a move. All she could do was stare with evil eyes and keep making plans to finally make Rose flee. “I was just as shocked as you are. I was expecting him to leap and tear me to pieces but instead, he was asking for my forgiveness,” sh

    Chapter 33“I can't do it,” Rose told Judy for the umpteenth time. But Judy wasn't giving up on her anytime soon. “I know you're scared, but it's fine.” Her next words were to be for Rose to ‘trust her’ but she knew better than to request for her trust after the way things had ended the last time. “But Lord Grim is personally requesting to see you.” Rose felt like she was in trouble. Maybe he wanted to punish me for walking away from him earlier, she thought to herself. ”Don't worry I'll be by your side this time. I'm not going to let anything happen to you,” Judy assured.Rose mustered the courage to follow Judy into the chambers where Lord Grim was being kept. All eyes were on her when she walked in and the different gazes were for different reasons. If looks could kill, Feria's eyes would have turned Rose into dinner as soon as she walked in. She held onto Grim closely as if just Rose's presence was enough to capture her fiance's heart.Dale didn't bother to give her more th

    Chapter 32Grim had felt his world turn blank. He would have screamed for help or at least tried to convince Rose to stay but he had lost his voice. He didn't blame her. He had treated her worse and if she saw this as payback then that was fine. His last wish was for her to at least believe his words because they were the truth. Then she came back. When he thought all hope was gone she came back and took him up. She had risked getting spotted by any vampire and getting hurt. That sacrifice from her meant a lot to him. Literally, he blacked out from the pain before they could get to the shrine.The healer walked out when she heard the commotion outside. She was an elderly woman with her silk white hair fixated with ornaments of sorcery. Bracelets and rings of different shapes and sizes adorned her hand. She was clad in a robe that showered down to her feet. She walked down and collected Grim from Rose. “Thank you for bringing him,” the healer appreciated. “Wait here, I'll take him
