"Nice to see you again Lucian”She said smiling. Claudine never really smiled, well not genuinely.“How did the eggs turn out”How did she know about them. What was going on here.“Scrambled”He answered and she laughed. Curse his good humor.“So, you aren’t here alone huh, two cups”“Oh yeah”“Who, a girlfriend”She asked teasing him.I was somewhat looking forward to hearing his reply but he just laughed. That was neither a no nor yes.“Where is the other?”“Oh over there”I quickly turned to the other side of wall. I did not want Claudine to know I knew him.I saw Claudine walk past me, she did not even notice I was there. It wasn’t long before I felt Lucian behind me. “Here, I got her highness a latte and myself a smoothie”“I don’t want it”I said and started walking. Lucian followed.“Oh, smoothie then?”“I want none”You asked for something to drink now you don’t want any?I ignored him and kept walking.“Okay then, I would just hold on to the latte Incase you change your min

I was here watching the sunset with the most beautiful lady I’ve seen. I looked at her with admiration while she watched the sun set.She looked mesmerized, the orange and red colours gave her this glow.“Beautiful”The words escaped my mouth with out me knowing. She turned and looked at me, she smiled and it was breath taking. She leaned on me and rested her head on my shoulder. We sat there watching the sun set slowly in a peaceful silence. “Emma”I called out her name in a whisper, maintaining the silence. She rose her head and looked at me. Her eyes shun. I looked down at her lips. Tempting. I looked away quickly. I don’t know what is wrong with me today. Is it the sunset?“Let us go to the masquerade party, you and I”That was not why I called her but I had to think something reasonable to say”She blinked and drew her head back.“Uhh, are we forgetting a little detail?”She asked.“What, I asked puzzled”“My leg”She said“I can’t dance around with these”She continued tapping

I don’t know why I acted that way. I wanted to kiss her but I laughed instead. The hurt in her eyes when she opened them stabbed deep into me. I watched her silently on her writing table. She grabbed the ink well and dipped her pen in it after setting her paper but she never wrote anything. She looked like she had a debate going on in her head on whether or not to write. She chose not to and stood up to leave. I stood up too.“Where are you going?”I asked her My room”“Already?”“Yes, I am tired”“Are you not going to eat something first?”“Eat what? There is nothing to eat, I don’t want toast anymore”“Who said it’s toast? I got a few tricks up my sleeves”She studied me before talking .“Keep your tricks to yourself, I am not hungry, I just want to sleep”She said and left.She was lying, she was hungry. I heard her tummy grumble two or three times while she had a back and forth with herself.I stood and watched her leave. When she was gone I went to the kitchen to make dinner. I

I checked my clock and it was 7 minutes past three in the morning and I still have not slept a wink. I threw my legs out of my bed and turned my bed side lamp on. I grabbed my clutches from where they stood, in between my bed and my bed side table. I was going to get a glass of water and maybe pour myself some warm milk to aid my sleep. When I got to the door I put one of my clutches in my other hand to be able to turn the knob I tried a few times but it just would not budge, after a few clumsy attempts the knob turned on its own and the door became ajar I froze in fear. Was this another one of my nightmare. The door began to open slowly and I took two little steps back to have a reasonable distance between myself and what ever was at the other side of the door. When the door opened wide enough for me to see who was standing at the other side I saw it was Lucian.“what the heck are you doing here at this hour?”I yelled.“Do you think it’s funny trying to scare the life out of me each

I walked back to me and Lucian’s table. He had this knowing look on his face.“How was the rest room?”He asked leaning back in his seat “Fine”I answered while sitting down. ~•Lucian’s POV•~We got into the restaurant. Restaurant or a Café?It was not something too fancy but it was beautiful, had lots of flowers outside. Nicely furnished. Each table could have the maximum of eight people. The place was small and could only have about fifty six person at once. Each table had a vase with two daisies. We got to an empty table and everyone’s attention was diverted to us. I pulled out a chair for Emma and took her clutches from her then I took a seat across from her. A waitress came to our table and handed us a menu, smiled at me and left.I looked at the menu and the heading read Breakfast Café. So it is a Café. From what was on the menu the only things they had were mostly pastries then simple foods like pasta and noodles, and other breakfast foods. There was

I sat there staring at him. How did he manage to look better in casual wears. I was used to seeing him looking all gothic that I could barely recognize him. He was wearing a plain black t- shirt with a black sweat pants.“How do I looked?”He asked me spreading his arms “Different”I replied shaking my head “Different good or different bad”“Different good I answered”“I know “Of course still arrogant, clothes surely did not change that.“Well, I guess we have fulfilled all our agendas for today, let us go home “I said standing up from the chair and holding on to my clutches. “Not quite, still have a lunch to be present at”I had completely forgotten about the lunch he had with the waitress. “Oh that. I have forgotten. We have a problem”“What is it?”“You see the bags, I cannot carry them my self cause of these”She lifted up one of the clutches.“That would not be a problem. I would carry it home then we go get lunch “We? It almost sounded like he meant the both of us having

Lucian set the table and he dished out soup for both of us. It smelled so nice. I tasted it and it was divine. It felt nice to have someone care about you, even if I made it this way.I looked over at Lucian, his face wore no expression. It seems like the only time they did was when he was talking to me.“What is it?, don’t you like the food? Not to your liking?”I asked him He looked up from his plate and looked at me and he smiled.It was really only when he looked at me he had an expression.“It is to my liking”“Oh, doesn’t look like it”“What should I do, smile while I am eating?”He asked being sarcastic and I laughed a little. He shook his head and went back to eating.“You seem happy “He said after a while without looking at me“Mm?”I said with food in my mouth. I was not understanding him. Happy about what?“When the old lady came over. You were pleased to meet her”“What is wrong with that?”I asked him“Nothing, just strange. I thought you did not like the old lady”He a

Emma had made me return the bowls to the old lady. I just wanted to give them back and be on my way but she kept me busy. Young man you look strong, could you help me carry this item from over there to my backyard, I have been meaning to move it, but you see I don’t have that sort of strength any more.I had no choice but to accept. It was not just one task, there came many more and she kept trying to get information out of me concerning myself, concerning Emma and our so called relationship.With all these happening I realized she was just a lonely old lady who dwelled on gossip as a leisure activity like every other old person.She said she had two children, her son apparently died while serving while her daughter got married and moved away, had children but she never saw her after she got wedded.There was a short moment I felt uneasy. It came again and I could not ignore it.“Ma’am no matter how I am enjoying this talk we have going on I fear I have to leave now, I can not leave

BRIAN’S POV I was spent at this point, I had tried going to pay a little visit to the shopkeeper, but he had placed a damn curse that smacked me right off my feet anytime I came close to the door. The door handle zapping me senseless. So I had planted trails that would lead me to the inkwell itself, although I had no lead, and I needed to discuss it with Lilith, I needed her permission. I placed a call to Lilith, the line only beeping twice before she picked up, her voice ringing through the room“It is about damn time you called Brian” she yelled, my ear ringing loudly.“You know very well why I haven’t reached out to you Lilith, “ I said exhaustion rolling into my voice“Are you sure that is the only thing keeping you busy Brian? She asked candidly, there was a long pause after The question.Which caused her to cackle, her devilish laughter reverberating through the phone, and I hated the way she always made me feel small.“I thought as much Brian, so when you are done philand

LILITH'S POVI could not explain the anger that rolled off my body after I found out the inkwell had been sold, I had been in an offensive mood ever since Brian brought the news to me, a smirk evident on his face as if mocking me. If not that I needed him, I would have dealt with him, made him beg for his life till I decided on what to do with him.At least, that would put him in his rightful position, and he wouldn't dare mess with me, for I was Lilith, the holder of lives and the one who could rule over fickle-minded men to the right path; I was their only path to salvation.I had made necessary plans in place, the pines field being one of my priorities. I needed to visit the antique shopkeeper and needed him to tell me who or whom he sold the inkwell to.As it was, my patience was running thin; I needed that inkwell like yesterday. to finally get all that I had ever wanted.I wanted power in large doses, I wanted to rule the world.I yearned for the satisfaction of seeing my own r

EMMA’S POV Ever since that day that Lucien had hung out my dirty linen for me to see, used my heart to play a game of ping pong, I couldn’t stand the sight of him.I was repulsed staying in the same space next to him, he didn’t get to treat me like that, didn’t get to say a whole lot of mean things and expect me to still be cordial with him.I mean hello, you do not get to do that.So that is why I have been ignoring him ever since then, focused entirely on my book, that seemed to confuse me a whole lot, and that stinging pain, and metal colliding with fresh was more prominent after every word I wrote.I didn’t know how to explain it, I didn’t know who to ask.I mean I could easily ask Lucien but then my ego would not let me.Right now I was on my way to the antique shop, after impolitely declining Lucien’s offer to accompany me.I didn’t necessarily want to be drawn to his bad energy.Because that was what he was a ticking time bomb that was waiting patiently to detonate taking ev

LUCIEN’S POV It took a while before she responded to my kisses, and when she did.It was blissful, I nibbled, sucked, and teased her bottom lip which elicited a soft moan from her. Her soft moan turning me on.The kiss went from slow and steady to needy, and a little bit aggressive, my hand found the curves at her back, groping softly, and her hand running through the roots of my hair.This action seemed to stir the wolf in me, begging to be let out more than ever, I was having a hard time keeping it under a leash.I didn’t want to hurt her like this, and for a moment, I wished I was human. Wished that I could give her my all without afraid of a beast letting loose.Sensing my urge to pull back off she pulled me back in, one of her legs wrapping around my waist, as I teased her with my already growing bulge.This seemed to be doing the trick as she became a quivering mess pleading with me in small breathes not to stop.Letting out a small growl, I started to feel the changes, my

LUCIEN'S POVIgnoring Emma was the most stupid decision that I had made in my entire life, I had to ensure that I was out of here before she could suspect anything.And I knew nothing could ever get past Emma.She was too smart for her own good, I had woken up earlier than her this morning, made breakfast quietly so I wouldn’t have to hold a conversation with her if she woke up.If I needed to avoid her, I had to be out of here, so I had taken my time to know all the nooks and cranny of pine field. I even saw the antique shop where Emma got the Inkwell, the shopkeeper engrossed in whatever it was he was doing. I wasn’t exactly surprised when I got home, and Emma had tried engaging me in small talks, conversation that I didn’t want to be in, so I had given her one excuse of going to take a shower, shower that ended up taking hours to finish.Honestly trying to avoid Emma, the clothes she had on was messing with my head, turning me into a complete recluse, and she didn’t even notice

I didn’t know how it got from this to this over night. I mean we had cuddled over night. Spent the whole night trying to talk everything out.I mean we even cuddled, and now he would not even look at me. The moment I knew something was wrong was when I woke up to an empty bed. The sheets still smelling strongly of his scent.But there was no Lucien. And I didn’t know what to make of that. There had been lots of heightened emotions last night. Sexual tension enveloping us like a blanket, for a moment I had hoped the cuddles would have led to something else, I mean I would have been down for it.Down for anything as long as it was with Lucien Blacthorne.But that was not the issue here. The issue was Lucien had been ignoring me ever since this morning. Speaking of which, I didn’t even see him, I have looked for him everywhere. And I mean everywhere. I just couldn’t place it. It felt like he was close by, yet far What was worse was that I could feel him, sense him, and even smel

LUCIEN’S POVEver since this morning, Emma had been ignoring me although I deserved the cold shoulders, but it still hurt. I kept on stealing glances at her during our ride home this morning, but I couldn’t get a read of her emotions. She seemed closed off, and upset I just wanted her to smile at me again. I almost died of a heart attack when I finally heard her speak, but her words weren’t directed at me, But the driver.And I wished she would at least talk to me, I wanted her to hear me out so bad. Not even when I offered her my hand to take, her icy reply when I told her we had gotten home made me recoil.Uneasiness overtook me.I let her have her space after I asked her if she needed anything; she didn’t want me around her anyway, so I sat in the living room staring at her as she wrote, her face Devoid of any emotion. But I could tell she was at peace, at least before she wrote whatever made her heart rate rise a whole lot.She didn’t even speak to me on our way to the hos

EMMA’S POVThe ride home was filled with silence, except for the soft purring of the Ac that seemed to fuel my irritation. I was not in the right frame of mind to hold a decent conversation with Lucien.The ride home seemed to drag on, and I couldn’t help but curse my bad luck.His actions lately seemed to drive me over the edge, and his words hitting the appropriate places like a stray bullet.And it definitely seemed to hit its mark.I still couldn’t wrap my head around the fact that I was his roommate, considering what we have been through together.I just didn’t get it. Get the fact that I was unlovable, and it broke me. It broke through my resolve, and there was nothing I could do about it. I definitely didn’t know what I did wrong or where everything went wrong.His indifference fuelling my irritation, I definitely didn’t want to be around him at this point, not until I would be able to exorcise myself of the feeling I had for him.I knew it would take a while before that co

Why would Lucian introduce me as a room mate. Was that what he actually saw me as? Just a room mate.I looked at him but I noticed he was avoiding my gaze. He did not want to look at me, either that or he did not have the guts to look at me after what he just said.“Ohh, just a room mate “The Emma next door said and I saw her smile, a sly smile.I kept quiet and drew my food closer and started eating. I was not in the mood to talk to any of them.“Pardon my presence at your table, I was just hoping to eat with Lucian. Are you okay with my presence here?”She was directing her question to me.Why was she asking me this. Was she not already on our table?I lifted my head and I made eye contact with her. I wanted to tell her that if she really wanted to eat with Lucian so bad why don’t the both of them just get a table else where and leave me alone. After Few seconds of not responding to her request I spoke.“You are already here are you not? Do you not think it would be rude to tell
