Hannah stood up and smiled, she at first didn't say why but none the less Roman waited for her to elaborate her sudden excitement.
She turned to him and clasped her hands "Though dear Skyler's intentions were pure I feel she might have helped us more than she thinks""What do you mean Hannah?" He asked standing up."I know it was an adventure for her to find Rachel's tomb, and by all means I wanted to give her the pleasure of finding it... But unfortunately I couldn't help overhear their conversation"Asena stood closer "You know Annette won't let you""Ah~ Dear Asena, so you have overheard it as well""Overhead what!?" Roman asked.Hannah lifted a finger smiling broadly "Somewhere in this castle there is a study that belonged to Victor, in there lies many secrets"Roman looked up the stairs, he for one didn't hear the two women talk, they must be far in, but that seems not to have bothered Hannah and Asena, their supernatural hearing reachedBruce stood away from the door and broadened his shoulders to her "Countess, so you have arrived?"Annette knew if this man stood outside those in the study had confidence he would be enough to stop her or keep her out, how wrong they were."Step aside..." Annette said still very slowly approaching with an intimidating glare in her eyes."Unfortunately I cannot young miss, I have been asked to keep you out, and I will be more than glad if you stayed here upon my request, we do not need to draw blood, these carpets are too fine to be spoiled""Last warning... Step–! Aside–!""My deepest apologies" he said widening his stance.Annette couldn't smell vampire or wolf in him, it meant he's a wizard or a warlock, so speed it is then, a ball of fire can only travel so fast, and Ray has shown her how fast she should move in order to outmaneuver lightning, the two most basic assault spells a warlock uses against a vampire, lightning to stun, fi
Asena has seen that face before, that evil grin of Hannah Vladimir, she was the tip of the heartless knife ready to pierce first and always wanted to end it quick by piercing all the way through, her enemies were nothing to her, unlike Vlad who had respect for the living, he respected a good warrior even if that warrior fell to his sword.Asena remembers how sometimes Vlad would even bury his fallen foes, give them a respectful grave, driving the man's sword as a tombstone into the head of the grave as an honor, and leaving with words of kindness like "I have enjoyed my fight with you, I shall remember you until the day my life is ripped from me"Did Vlad remember them all? The day he died did he call the names if the fallen warriors before him? Or did he think of Rachel in his last seconds as he descended to Hell?Whatever went through his mind at his last, Hannah was not him, his daughter yes, but it was because of Hannah and Rachel Vlad was so desperate he went int
Screams like piercing knives in her ears Skyler stood watching this woman slowly take her own life, out of sheer evil, no other possible reason to it! There wasn't even joy involved, not even pleasure, or hate! Hannah did it out of pure evil!Skyler begged over and over again for mercy! Begged her not to let this mother suffer, not to take her away from her daughter, but it seems the coldest blizzard and the hardest frozen lake was not as cruel as the heart of Hannah, she didn't even blink! She was pitch black, the total absence of light! Complete void and utter unemotional utter disrespect for any life!The noises made Skyler sick, even if Annette was screaming at the top of her lungs she still heard the noises of the heart coming out, Annette had to compress it slightly to get it through the hole she herself made in her chest, and finally after it felt like a lifetime of living in this nightmare Annette's hand jerked as the arteries and veins snapped.Her screams do
Back in New York, where it all started, Rebecca never had any idea some of her greatest enemies would be this close to home, then again, home was where the RV was, and that could have been anywhere.She entered the building with Jane and Duke leading her deciding its best to behave since these two could kill her in a heartbeat, they took the elevator up and arrived at large double wood doors.Duke knocked and was ordered to enter, there behind the table rose the man Rebecca could figure was the head of this snake."I can't believe you found her" Raphael said."Both Tiffany and Daniel stayed behind unfortunately" Duke said."That doesn't matter" Raphael said walking past them "Come"Rebecca followed the group but being reminded of Tiffany is what had her sad, not necessarily the fact that she's now a prisoner to some sort of vampire."May I know this reason why I'm here?" She asked."Its because of the blood that flows in your veins, princess"
Hannah was getting frustrated at not finding anything about Rachel's tomb, she threw the papers one side and looked at the blown away doors, hearing someone approach, but instead of it being Asena it was Xena and Nightingale, she folded her arms."You two took your sweet time""I had to do a few jumps to her here" Xena said.Hannah knew of the magical portal she can make to jump space and time, its why she had Shelai with her as an ally, but the fact that it was only the two of them made her mercury rise further."Where is the hybrid?""We couldn't get her..." Xena said."And Danté?"The two shook their heads."Dammit!" Hannah yelled throwing a book on the floor.The atmosphere was suddenly broken when Lia giggled frantically."What!?" Hannah yelled."I found nothing about Rachel, but I did find this" she said holding a little note book up."What is it?""Its the location of Saffira's bones"Hanna frowned "
Danté saw Villa draw back her glance but her eyes where shocked, it seems like she just saw a ghost."What's going on Villa?" He asked but she shook her head."I, I don't know how this is possible but my mother is back!""Your mother?"Rebecca stepped forward "Wasn't she some sort of evil witch!?""Not just evil, powerful! Something is wrong here!" Villa said and held a hand to Danté "Give me one of your revolvers"Though Rebecca snapped at her and Danté the look on her mother's eyes clearly spelled distress, the last time she saw them that worried was when Danté tried to shoot her that one night."Mother!""Rebecca, since she is here I suggest you get the fuck out! I get it! You wanted to stay here because Raphael could have kept you safe, but not anymore, not with her out there" Villa said ducking as another explosion smoked up he hallway."What will you do?""I'll distract her..." She lifted the r
Melany remembered the day they left, and what happened afterwards.Ray was by all means just a great a king as Victor was, even better than him to a small margin, he was kind, understanding, and he changed the laws that anyone can love anyone as long as the consequences of their offspring are dealt with by the couple."Annette!" Ray's voice came through the halls, Melany was nine years old that time, and already held the King and Queen's newborn daughter in her arms, even held Rebecca as Annette entered that faithful study after Ray called her mother.Rebecca was a sweet baby, calm and almost always sleeping, the hour it took for Annette to finish with Ray in that study was a dream, even to her as a nine year old.But when the doors finally opened, it was as if a new world of darkness came out there with it, at that time Melany didn't realise.Annette came out and stood aside with a formal bow, then Ray came out with Tala, Ray patted her head and Tala knelt
"Listen to me closely Melany, I am alone in this, Vlad threw me into the deep end before I could properly swim, and you my girl are the only person I have left" Annette said the day she turned her daughter into a vampire.It was something Melany prepared for she knew this day would come, and on the age of twenty Annette had her reborn by the fangs."I will guard that study with my life, but you... I want you to be all you can be—"—warm fresh blood, Melany enjoyed it more than she bargained for, the boy aged 18 was Hank, a last hear high schooler on his way home from his grandmother.She had him in the bed of the hotel, kissing his lips, licking at the blood in his neck, Annette taught Melany to compel as well, and she compelled Hank to see this as his deepest fantasy.He groaned at the feel of the passion Melany was concocting between their legs, the tingling of the slow loss of blood, Melany wanted it to last so she pricked his neck with only
Meeting your maker, it had a nice ring to it, Danté and Rebecca knew they were about to face a predicament that might as well mean the end of them, but the fact that humans took it upon themselves to fight this secret war against the great wolves means they couldn't hide like cowards."Danté, why are you so anxious to do this?" She asked waiting for Raphael to join them in his office.He stood watching New York from that highest set window, like dominoes the buildings stood stacked and ready to be toppled over, would that be the case if wolves the size of houses came here to fight it out?"I don't have words to say, I wished I knew about these great wolves earlier, although now, being with you in our current circumstances, I'd wish for it no other way" he said turning to her.She smiled and came over to embrace him "How are you coping?""Its still new, I smell every human that passes me and feel my mouth water, but as long as you stick with me I'll be fine" he said an
Feeling its better Raphael explained the news Ray led Danté and Rebecca down to the dining hall, they found him and Lilith digging into a plate of breakfast, and he was enjoying it clearly by the way he closed his eyes whilst chewing."You know" he said lifting a slice of bacon "As a vampire the only human delicacy I got to enjoy was alcohol, I mixed some with blood and stored it in wine bottles to make it seem more authentic, but who was I kidding? This food, the real taste of wine fruit and cooked meat is way better than I could ever have imagined"Lilith smiled at him whilst chewing, nodding in agreement."I'm glad you enjoy it Raphael" Tala said.Danté and Rebecca sat down opposite him and the servants handed them each a plate of food as well, they dug in realizing for the first time how hungry they were."Something isn't right" Danté said between bites "I've never suddenly been this hungry before!"Rebecca first swallowed "Its
Danté lied on his back with Rebecca in his arms, they decided to cover with blankets for no reason at all, seeing each other bare was now so normal it felt right, they were comfortable seeing one another in all forms.Rebecca sighed softly and looked up to him "So what's next?""Well..." He said and stroked her back under the covers "Anything, as long as I get to do it with you"She smiled and lifted her heel to hook it over his leg and draw it away from the other "We can go for another round?""That sounds fun" he said and kissed her.She climbed on top of him getting ready "This time you don't turn me over, got it?" she said positioning."As you wish" he said but suddenly the door of the room burst open, Ray was in and out, his shocked face the last thing they saw before the door slammed shut."Boy! How dare you!" He screamed from behind it.Danté felt his guts knot when he realized what he had done, he pushed her off but she w
Danté wanted to treat her like pure gold, or according to his mind a diamond in the rough, she still stood holding the blanket around her, he stood holding her and only her blanket was parting their naked bodies from one another.Her lips soft, he kissed her delicately, that time in the back of the rental hatchback was a moment of alcohol induced pleasure he didn't want to repeat now, not here.No, he wanted to treat her right, every woman probably deserved it, and Rebecca was no exception regardless of what she was.She changed the pace slightly and bit his lip, holding it in her teeth softly and prevented him from pulling back, she felt his smile against het lips and opened her eyes, close to each other's faces, their eyes deep into one another, the senses he received from her bite allowed him to hear her heart race, she was excited.She let go of his lip but stood with a face red as the blanket she held, then under the one he held to cover them he felt
Maybe in the days his parents still lived he experienced this feeling, true joy, freedom, he didn't give a damn what Jasper said, all Danté wanted to do was be with Rebecca.She was still ahead, they played this game of tag all night, finding things to do with each other, games to play.It was almost sunrise when she suddenly turned ahead of him and he stopped before hitting her, she in return jumped towards him and dove him over.They both laughed when she pinned him to the ground, the moment eased out and they watched each other closely.He decided to say it first "I know I threw your life upside down, and I'm sorry""I was angry at you in the beginning, but the more I got those small moments with you, moments like this, it sorta just faded away" she said leaning in and lying on his chest."I promise I'll never do wrong by you again""Neither will I" she answered giving his face a lick.Danté couldn't help push her face a
Raphael fell back in his chair, the thoughts running through his head of what Jasper said, only after everyone around the table sat down did he look up."Did I hear him correctly? The feud between wolves and vampires in our world was only the tip of the ice berg?""Correct" Vlad said "I myself don't know the finer details, but the day I was made into a vampire Jasper warned me that I'm allowed to test my new power, but under no circumstance may I expose it to man kind carelessly""And the fact that he said he watched us, means we were like test subjects to him?" Ray asked."Yes again, he wanted to see what the power of the vampire held" Vlad said."You think he was happy with the results? Currently I feel like my whole life I was living in a cage like an animal, monitored at all times to see what I do" Victor said."Its one way to say it, only now It's finally over, we are finally in reality about what's happening in the real world of the supernatural"
It was a dream of Rebecca to become a fighter pilot, the day she told Benson that it wasn't a joke, now though seeing an actual military strike on something like the pyramids had her stunned silent.She looked at Jasper as he still stood chuckling at their faces, he then lifted his shoulders to a shrug and held his hands up."The men responsible for that are not hunters persé, they're humans who who abandoned their military and took it upon themselves to combat great wolves, you see they accidentally stumbled upon werewolves, the good ones add that, and found out about this feud between us wolves""So they just upped and blew a pyramid up? Is that truly what it takes to kill a great wolf?" Ray asked."Well there are more lenient ways I'll admit, but this plan was seventeen years in the making..." Jasper said looking at Rebecca "You where three years old when this happened, and since then its been a wild goose chase all around the world, accept they never s
It was a celebration, friends and enemies of old now sat together at the table talking and reminiscing, the apologies were shot in all directions but above all they decided to make amends and start anew.Ray allowed them to talk, Villa with Saffira, Raphael did some needed catching up with Lilith, then of course Vlad and Rachel couldn't share their attention to anyone but each other.Only Tala sat quietly next to him, she also adored the new life around this table, to Tala's right sat Hannah, her quiet smiling stare at her mother and father said it all, she was deeply happy.Ray then scanned and saw missing faces "Where is Rebecca and Melany?" He asked Tala and she also looks around."Don't know, I am aware Melany went to talk to Rebecca in her room, she was also tasked to bring Rebecca down for dinner?"Ray sat back when a servant placed a plate of food down in front of all of them, he smiled at the woman when she stood back "My gratitude, it must be
Rebecca and Melany came running into to the cemetery and found the grave severely disturbed."What blasphemy is this!?" Melany yelled first, it was clear the grave was empty, all around it the wood splinters of the coffin laid in shambles."I'm going to kill whoever did this!" Rebecca yelled but was silenced by a roar in the distance.The two women stood looking into the forest bordering the castle grounds, then looked at the scene."Could it be? It looks like this grave was pushed out from within?" Melany said and looked at Rebecca."Let's find out if that roar wasn't the one who dug this grave up" Rebecca said and ran out towards the forest."Maybe you should look at the moon Rebecca! That roar came from something that sounded rather large!" Melany called as she ran with her.They broke into the trees an stopped to listen, there was the noise of an animal in distress, it made them run again."Rebecca! Look at the moon!" Melany yelled but the
