Romania 1595 - 1600“Where are your parents?” She giggled at me, pointing to the house close to us. “What’s your name?”
Liz woke up abruptly, sitting on the bed and stiff as a stone, I didn’t know for sure what was going on, but something was not right, I could feel it, and with all the chaos of these last few days, I didn’t inspect her house enough to see how safe it was.“Liz… There’s an…”
“Oh boy, that’s shit!” I yelped in an anguished tone, standing up when I saw Jack touching my bed.“What are you seeing?”
That was music to my ears, I couldn’t wait to put my hands, or better than that, my fangs to the men who dare to threaten her. I was out of her sight in a matter of seconds, dodging trees in the woods, reaching the first one crouched behind a thick trunk.He didn’t even notice me standing behind him. I gripped his neck, raising him from the floor like
The trip took about an hour and a half until a town called Kingston. I knew Liz was hungry, and she took us straight to a diner. It was a nice place, with black and white floors, cushions and chairs in bright red, and lots of writings and what I thought were pictures all over the walls. We sat in what she called a booth. I didn’t feel like eating anything, so Liz asked for some coffee for us, and eggs, bacon, and bread for her. She was hungry, since we had to flee without further notice.
I had fun in Kingston with her today. Never in my life I had a day like that, not even when the world was already in better shape than in the 1400s, because nothing was quite like these days, not even for a blink of an eye. Today everything is way too different, easy. Well, that’s the impression it gave me.We went for a few supplies before we headed to the house
“What’s wrong, Grizzly? Why did you stop?” I asked, caressing his beard and bringing him to me.“Nothing, dragă, let’s get ourselves settled, and we finish this later. I’ll get the fire going for you. I don’t want you cold.”
The haughty tone in which she professed those words took me aback, and my body tensed and my hands became fists, and she noticed, even though my demon raised his head in awareness, the need of dominating her rising in him. I didn’t expect that from her in any way possible, and if I Anton’s news didn’t shake me up enough, now I’ve got speechless by her lack of emotions, but the worst was the painful tightness in my throat and the broken feeling that settled in my chest. In a speedy second my hands flew to her neck again and long hair, pulling them down, so she faced me.
Liz“WOMAN!” I was in the kitchen and almost jumped out of my skin when I heard the booming voice coming from the bedroom. The bear just woke up and he got angry, but instead I got scared of him, all I wanted all that tyranny for myself. His domineering tone crawled on my skin like a caress and traveled straight to the right places in my body, and coiled i
My father came from behind and grabbed my waist, raising me from Vlad’s body and bringing me hard to his chest. I cried so heavy, and I was so fucking broken, I would kick at Tony’s legs and extend my hands, trying to reach Grizzly at all costs. At that point, I couldn’t understand my life without him, I couldn’t devise a future for me in the coming days. How does one live without a heart pulsing inside the chest? Mine was lying torn, in silence, on that very floor!
When I heard Vlad’s words resounding the place, my blood froze in my veins as doom was about to descend on us. I found myself exhausted with my head cushioned in Doctor Blake’s lap, and fatherly eyes looking down at me. Yes, he had redeemed himself; he was a good person after all, and as much as a victim like me or my sister. Warmth filled my heart for this man, but also guilt. It was as if with this new feeling I was betraying Tony. He was my father in my heart, and as if he picked up my mixed feelings, he was there in my head.
Lights came from the other side, and the entire room charged. I didn’t know what was going on, the only thing that had my focus was the hilarious look on my brother’s face. He didn’t know with whom he messed with; he didn’t know the power she yielded. The shock and confusing shadow behind the reason she had defied him, backing out on his threats.
Those were the longest and excruciating minutes I have ever had to live. The entire time I prayed to God, not to let it be true, but the sinking feeling in my stomach didn’t lie. I caught myself stepping back with shaky hands, until I hit the bed and fell, sat on it, as the door opened, and a gorgeous smile but cynical greeted me.With wide eyes and trembling lip
“Welcome to my home, brother, I hope you feel comfortable here.” He was there, standing in the middle of the room, holding a box. His face was a grimace and scintillating eyes at me.“Stop with the crap, you puny bastard, and spit it!” With very slow movements, I planted my feet apart, preparing myself for an attack. With a quick side look to An
I knew Liz had said something to him when he cursed. He was pissed, but not with her. Something else bugged him. “Don’t let me out of it, Anton. I’m trying to reach her and she blocked me,” I said, my patience running thin.“My little girl is about to have one more disappointment, if she hadn’t had enough already. I knew it was comin
I stood like a statue in the middle of that room, staring at the blond woman with a puzzled face by the corner. The silence was oppressive and to tell the truth I didn’t know what to say, where to start or what to do. She looked at me with an awkward face and puzzled eyes.“Do you know who I am?” I asked the first thing that came to my mind. She gave
