Nicole was all alone in the apartment. Her lover Lucas had left her earlier with Mildred. She was getting quite lonely all by herself at the apartment and wanted to leave for Angela's apartment but she remembered Lucas words to her to stay at the apartment and wait for him, so she waited.
"I hope you are faring better where you are than I am", she thought to herself, looking outside his panoramic view, as she laid on his king sized bed.
***
Lucas and Mildred were both having a good time, they had been talking for almost 3 hours.
"Stop with the jokes", Mildred said laughing. She was enjoying his company.
"I didn't mean to say one, I'm glad you fo
Lucas and Mildred got up along with the others as Alpha White was only a few feet away. They kept standing until he arrived."It's good to see you all, good morning!", Alpha White said, as he stood in front of them."Good morning Alpha White!", they all greeted back."I want to specially thank the vampire hybrids for coming out yesterday night to help us out!"Alpha white said, walking over to Mark and Andrew who were closer to him and shaking them. He next walked over to Lucas standing at the back and shook his hands too."It was our privilege to be here again", Lucas said to Alpha White as he shook his hands."It's good to see you again, Mild
Nicole slept peacefully on the bed after she managed to convince herself that Lucas was fine and he wasn't in any trouble or killing her kind.She fell asleep on the side of the bed Lucas usually slept on. It smelt more like him and she liked it. It made her imagine he was here with her.She could sense the bedroom was getting brighter gradually from her closed eyelids.Last time she didn't close the curtains to the windows as she fell asleep in the bed. She liked the night view of the city and the night sky.She felt like still sleeping some more but needed the room to be dark a little. She tried to sit up from the bed with her eyes closed but she soon realised there was someone whose arms were holding her.
The time was now 8 AM and the morning city life had kicked in. Dracula's generals, Katharine, Vladimir and Talon were on a mission, a mission to find out the secret identity of the female vampire. They needed to go about their investigations in the morning because that was the time the clubs were at their least busiest time.They started off by visiting the most popular vampire night club in the city; Club Danger, to make their inquiry.They wore their official clothes as generals of Dracula's army, as they got out of their cars. They had escorts of vampire bodyguards follow them.As they stopped in front of the club, Danger. The vampire guards of the night club quickly spotted who they were as they got down from their cars and walked towards the front do
The time was now 9 AM when Lucas opened his eyes again. His hands were still wrapped around Nicole but she appeared to still be sleeping. Lucas kissed her on the back of her neck, then on her cheeks which made her smile while her eyes were shut. Apparently she was awake but loved the position she was in and so closed her eyes to enjoy it some more."Wake up babe", Lucas said, urging her to open her eyes. Nicole smiled again and this time turned to face him, her eyes still shut until she opened it looking into his beautiful eyes."Good morning", Nicole said to him with a smile."Good morning babe", Lucas said, kissing her briefly on the lips."Sadly we have to get ready for work", he said, as he sat up
The time was now 10 AM and Katharine had arrived at the night club. Her door was opened for her by one of her vampire bodyguards as she stepped out of the car. She looked to her right and saw Vladimir and Talon too step out of their cars, as their doors were equally opened for them too.They matched towards the front door of the club and met only a light security presence, only one Male vampire guard standing at the door who instantly recognized them because of their cars and their official garment.He quickly saluted them."Welcome generals!", he said, stepping aside for them to walk right in. He had no choice actually. He couldn't stop any of the generals with his strength even if he wanted to, plus he was clearly outnumbered. But stopping them never wa
Charles had still not forgotten about the death of Sir Paul. He had dropped Angela and Nicole at Nicole's apartment as he drove off. Tonight he wanted to be alone but did not directly say that to Angela, instead he gave her permission to spend the night with Nicole if she wanted, which she readily accepted. Nicole had stayed over at Lucas's apartment for 2 days straight now and Angela was already missing their sleep overs together.Charles drove off towards the direction of Sir Paul's mansion. It was a long drive but it gave him time to reflect on what had happened.Sir Paul had been killed by the vampire hybrids in battle and Charles had vowed to avenge his death but so far he hadn't made a headway with his plans. He needed to see some of the vampire guards at the mansion that used to work for Sir Paul.
"So tell me how has it been staying with your boyfriend for the past few days?", Angela asked."It's been wonderful, almost perfect. I'm happy we spent some quality time together but I also miss spending my nights with you; Angela", Nicole said with a smile."Awww, that's lovely", Angela said, glad she missed her time with her."I am here now but tell me what do you mean by your time with Lucas was "almost perfect", is there a problem?", she asked."It isn't really a problem", Nicole said, realising she shouldn't have said that."I don't think so. I think it must be bothering you that is why you mentioned it to me", Angela said.
Back at the nightclub, Charles was seated in front of the bartender ready for his order to be taken."Hello Charles, you are here earlier than usual, where are Angela and Nicole?", the bartender asked, trying to be friendly."I left them both at Nicole's place. Please can I get two human blood bags?", Charles said, placing his order."Sure coming right up", the bartender said, as he quickly left to get his fresh human blood. As he did Charles rested his head on one of his hands. His mind was still filled with what David had told him about the mystery vampire girl being linked to the vampire hybrids."Here you go Charles, two human blood bags as requested", the bartender said, placing the bags in front of him.
When Lucas arrived at Mildred's house, he could hear her quietly sobbing inside the living room. The door was not shut, it was kept half way open. Mildred apparently was expecting Lucas to come after her. Because she was crying Lucas pleaded with Nicole not to come inside with him to not aggravate the situation even more but he allowed her to stay close enough to the door to hear everything that was going to be said. Lucas knocked gently and went in. "Why are you here with her? To further compound my mystery?!", Mildred asked, not too pleased to see him anymore. "I now know the true reason why you are so upset with Nicole. I wished I had figured it out earlier but I didn't. It took me this long to figure it out but I am sorry I made you suffer", Lucas sa
Dracula had been brutalised by Ambrosia as he got of him, which meant Lucas and his brothers had no more pains to inflict on him but they had one little request before they left."Announce that all vampires in your territory be summoned to court. You have a big announcement to make about Ambrosia and Mary. I am sure your face would have healed up well before they arrived", Lucas said.Dracula's hands were figuratively tied, he was powerless against the vampire hybrids and they were reinforcing their supremacy over him. Dracula gave his General Apollo the go ahead to summon the vampire originals. Apollo was now a shadow of his former self as he had lost all his courage seeing how Ambrosia dealt with Dracula mercilessly and he didn't retaliate for fear of the vampire hybrids. Apollo quickly ran and did as he was tol
"Mark please get to Dracula before they get to him", Lucas said calmly looking at Mark. The chaos was soon going to get to him and he didn't want him to leave until he was ready for him to."Consider it done!", Mark said, as he zoomed off in superspeed. Dracula had no chance of escaping him."Andrew, please seal off all the exits out of this place. Nobody goes out or comes in with my consent", Lucas said."I got it covered!", Andrew said, as he zoomed off in supermood and did exactly as he was told until the whole fortress was secured. No vampire was able to leave because of how fast he was at shutting the doors.Mark and Andrew now had everything covered as Lucas, Nicole, Ambrosia and Mary made their way slow
It was dawn the next day and Lucas was ready to make good his promise to Ambrosia and Mary. He also had other things he needed to accomplish. He knew the truth about how Mildred felt about him and needed to make things straight with her. He had done a lot of thinking through the night and his amazing brain and pieced together why things didn't go according to plan for her. As always Lucas was going to be going with his brothers to Dracula's territory and Nicole would come along with him as well.They were all ready and dressed. Lucas and his brothers had worn their black outfits as if they were going vampire hunting and Andrew was with his small backpack where their masks were kept. Nicole equally wore her favourite colour black to match with those of her fiance and his brothers. They all looked attractive and fierce as they stepped out of the apartment with Lucas holding on to
"But does that mean we won't stop hiding from the vampire hierarchy? Dracula doesn't know we are with you", Ambrosia said. He knew he and his wife could not tag along with the vampire hybrids everywhere they were going to. It was practically impossible, so when the vampire hybrids were not with them how will they be safe?"I'll have that taken care of tomorrow. I'll inform Dracula and his vampires that you are now under my protection. You are now my friend, whatever happens to you or Mary he will answer to me", Lucas said.Ambrosia looked surprised at him. Lucas had just spoken as if he knew and had spoken one on one with Dracula."Oh thank you Lucas, thank you so much. I can come with you when you go to meet him to direct you to his lair", he offered.
Lucas learnt all he could about Ambrosia and Mary as they stayed in their apartment and one thing that stood out for him was that he was the bridge connecting all of them together. He was the link between the witch, the werewolves, the vampire and even the humans. He understood all of them perfectly and he could be the key that could change everything.Lucas had never thought about his role in that light before until now. What he learnt from Mildred was that he was at the top of the food chain and others below them didn't really matter so much.Ambrosia had lived a long life and there was a lot he could learn even from a supposed enemy. Nicole was supposed to be his enemy too as a vampire but through her he learnt how to control his urge to feed on vampires and how to rather drink human blood bags.&
It is now past midnight and again Lord Dracula and a few of his generals have convened at the neutral zone between their territories. Mildred once again kept them waiting as she played her mind games."I hope the others are in place?", Dracula asked. With him was Mathias, Kim and Tasha. Apollo, Cleopatra and Jones had all gone into hiding trying to figure out the hiding spot of Mildred."Yes Lord Dracula", Matthias said. All they were waiting for now was for the witch to show up and she did."Good, you could finally make it and join us!", Dracula said excitedly.Mildred smiled at him. She was still in her translucent form. Her physical body was somewhere else and she was communicating from there
"Do you know who she is?", Lucas said, as he bent some inches away from them, so he was at eye level with them and looked into their eyes just in case they planned to lie to him. If they were truly out to harm Nicole they would try to pull a surprise strike on him, seeing only a few inches separating them or they would try to lie directly to his face. Whichever possibility it was Lucas was prepared for them all."No, we don't. We have never seen her before now!", Ambrosia said, scared to even look Lucas in the face. He had the aura of death surrounding him."And what about you?", Lucas turned, facing the female vampire Mary."Please I do not know her!", Mary begged, almost in tears. She was still holding tightly and pulling on Ambrosia's shirt.
Lucas and Nicole were coming back from the apartment after having a nice time together. They had spent their evening in the central park of the city taking in nature and enjoying each other's warm company. It's been barely over 24 hours since Lucas proposed to Nicole and she had accepted his proposal to marry him. They had fixed their wedding for the following weekend, something lovely but private. Just the 2 of them with Mark and Andrew. Nicole would have loved Angela to come with them but she was nowhere to be found.As they walked into the building hand in hand, both of them happy and smiling, Lucas picked up a strong euphoric smell on the first floor. He was already used to the smell of Nicole, this couldn't be her. He let his sense of smell guide him to his targets and when he opened his eyes he saw two couples ahead of them making their way to the elevator.
