EVA'S POV
A gentle breeze tickled me juxtaposing the storm brewing in my mind. Sweeping my eyes around I noted the usual hullabaloo going on. George was holding Rowan in a chokehold, Bella and company were huddled together engrossed in deep discussion, Jai, the nerd was pacing up and down the aisle with his head buried in a book.
Finally, I found the one I was looking for. I strode towards him confidently but my heart was pro
ALEX'S POVI had locked myself in my room again, after Seeing Aaron and Eva together in the corridor. The helplessness I felt was so stifling that it seemed to have a physical dimension. I opened the window in an attempt to get rid of this feeling.You can imagine my shock when I saw Eva standing just across my window. She looked so amazing. My heart accelerated and my breath was caught in my throat. She was like an alluring a
ONE MONTH LATERALEX'S POV“ I want a custom- made 10 kg rainbow cake.”“ Sorry ma’am, we have already booked 10 cakes for today. We can only take that many orders a day, I can book it for tomorrow if you wish.”
ALEX'S POV“ Alex! Alex! Alex! You won’t believe what has happened,” Susie said turning me round and round with her until I felt dizzy. When I couldn’t take it any longer I dragged her to the sofa, forcing her to sit down with me.“I have been offered a contract to showcase my paintings by…..” She said between gasps.“ Don’t tell me you have
ALEX'S POV“What are you doing, Susie?” I asked, trying fruitlessly to remove her hands that were covering my eyes.“Just a moment, Alex. I want to capture your reaction when you suddenly see my master-piece. Don’t open your eyes till I say so.” She said removing her hands. I could hear her footsteps move away from me. I was tempted to open
ALEX'S POVThe organizers agreed to my request after a lot of persuasion. I had requested them to grant Susie an opportunity to tell the audience, the story of her life before the auction began. When I returned the hall was almost full. The masterpiece was placed on the center of the stage waiting for it to be unveiled but where was Susie?
EVA'S POV“ When will you understand, Eva!” Emily roared, too loud even for a vampires’ ears. I closed my ears involuntarily and looked up at her wondering why she was behaving like a furious Grizzly Bear.I looked around my littered room, paintbrushes, watercolors, Acrylics were strewn across the room. From the day I had arrived at El Frosta, I rarely went out. I kept myself busy painting various memories. How did I offend Emily if I never even went out?
EVA'S POVI went into my room and wore gloves. Then I took out the bottle of oil that I always kept in the locker. I added the whole bottle of oil into the bottle labeled ‘ Red Wine’ in the cabinet. “ Pour a glass for me too,” Emily said from behind me. My heart came into my mouth. I slid the bottle of oil into my pocket. With shaking hands, I poured the liquid into three glasses. Thankfully she didn’t notice anything. Handing one glass to Emily, I walked towards Eric and handed him the other glass. I sat on th
ALEX'S POVI took a cab to my bakery. I felt so proud seeing Melisa and Ryan hard at work.“ Sir, Why are you here? Weren’t you supposed to be at the exhibition? Is there a problem.” Ryan asked in a single breath, his sincerity ringing through his words.
EVA'S POVI felt that being in Alex’s arms in front of our mini Amor lake was the best thing that could happen in my life but I was wrong. There would be many more magical moments like this in my life.Alex took out a red ribbon and blindfolded me suddenly.“ Hey! What are you doing.” I muttered in protest.
ALEX'S POVEva stuck to me the whole day like a koala. I found it very cute, but it was impertinent that I got out of here, else my surprise would be ruined. I wanted everything to be perfect.Finally, I had to message Melisa to come and get me out of Susie’s house. The moment Melisa and Athena arrived I sneaked out bef
EVA'S POVMy head throbbed like hell as I tried to open my eyes. The bright sunlight streaming in from the window caused me to flinch. I shielded my eyes with my hand. Someone drew the curtains and turned the lights on. I rubbed my eyes and tried to open them again. When I finally managed to open my eyes I was pleasantly surprised to see Alex. The joy I felt was so intense that it hurt. I open
ALEX'S POVI was so happy today. The lake and the garden had turned out exactly as I had planned. I sat on the swing admiring its beauty for a while. My body ached like I had been beaten with a rod. I stretched myself in an attempt to get some relief from some pain. From the past seven days, I had worked from dawn to dusk to complete the work. Though I missed Eva a lot,
EVA'S POVI paced in my room all day but Alex didn’t return. I must have called him at least a hundred times but he didn’t pick up my call. I was on the verge of a breakdown when Susie came to check on me.I can’t describe how light I felt after rambling everything to her. “ What should I do Susie? I just wanted to make everything right&n
ALEX'S POVI drove Susie’s car straight to Aaron’s house. Sweat trickled down my forehead and my hands trembled slightly as I rang the bell. Alice opened the door and let me in. Her face bore a pained expression and her eyes were baggy due to crying. I wondered what Mrs. Lockhart’s condition might be. “ Alex, my dear, long time no see. Didn’t you miss Aunt Linda?” She asked getting up to welcome me. Surprisingly, she looked perfectly normal. Had Aaron managed to stop Eva before she told Aunt Linda?
EVA'S POVThe rays of the sun shone brightly on my face making it difficult to sleep any further. I stretched my hands and a yawn escaped my mouth. I could get used to this. I wish I could sleep while I was a vampire. The 500 years of my existence wouldn’t have seemed so daunting then. After a quick shower I looked around Susie’s house but there was no one. Just then a delicious ar
ALEX'S POVI felt my heart sink when Eva said that she wished to go to Dixonville. I wanted to tell her the truth about Eric and Emily but how could I tell her that the ones who had been her guardian for 500 years had betrayed her. She would feel so heartbroken at that news. So, I followed her quietly fully expecting to be ambushed any minute but it never happened.
EVA'S POVThe cool shower of water pulled me out of the oblivion I was in. I opened my eyes wondering if I was in some other world. I had never heard Vampires talk about afterlife. When the haze before my eyes cleared I could see Susie standing before me. Was she dead too? She helped me sit up and made me drink some water. It tasted sweet and refreshing. If I knew water was so reviving I would have drunk pretty decent quantities of water in my existence.
