Natasha's POVIt's been 15 minutes of dead silence after Valerian said what he said.I'm not naïve, I know exactly what he meant by that phrase he just said to me and I don't know what to respond. Shit, I can't even formulate a single word.And the worst part is that I don't know why I'm the one who is embarrassed. I can feel how hot my cheeks feel right now and how my heart is beating really fast in my chest.Valerian on the other hand didn't say anything anymore after that. He went back to work-- typing something on his laptop.Maybe he's really busy because seems like he put away the thought of him punishing me for disobeying what he said and he just continued to work.Valerian already has all this grand wealth and yet he is still this hardworking.He just knows what's the secret ingredient of success, and that is hard work.There are sudden knocks on the door.I thought it was his secretary again but the door opened revealing Elyse."Hi!" she greeted.Her face lit up upon seeing m
Natasha's POV"So, Natasha, I'm really curious about how you and Valerian met," Ezra asked as he flashed a smile.Ezra has this boyish, boy-next-door type of smile so I can't help but wonder how old is he.Is he the same age as Valerian? Because if yes, then it's definitely not obvious.Vampires are indeed good at concealing how old they really are.I feel like Elyse is also old too but she seems and looks like we just have the same age.I smiled at Ezra and hope that it was not an awkward smile.I repeatedly cursed inside my head.I wish I have prepared for a situation like this but I didn't know there were come a day when I would get interviewed by Valerian's friend. I guess I have to prepare answers too in case I get asked where I am, my family, or something related to that question. Especially if I get asked by Elyse. I'm just glad she hasn't asked me anything like that yet.I took a deep breath first to calm my nerves down because I feel so tense.Well, who would have not gotten
Natasha's POVValerian heaved a sigh. Probably because of the frustration Elyse and Ezra have brought him."Yeah, it's disgusting to think about it but you know it's true," Ezra said referring to what he just said about what me and Valerian will going to do if they leave.Elyse groaned. "Ugh, stop!""But you know I'm right, right?" Ezra insisted."Yes." Elyse agreed as she laugh too. "Maybe we should really leave now before Valerian kills us and to give them some privacy.""I am really going to do that if you two won't stop," Valerian warned.His voice came out cold and full of authority.Ezra signaled Elyse to zip her mouth.These two, especially Elyse, have been saying to stop but they actually never really did. They just continued to tease us again and again and argue about stopping.I could just draw a breath at their antics."Fine, we're going to stop now." Elyse finally said probably because it really shows now that Valerian is already pissed off."But aren't you really going to
Natasha's POVMy heart is beating fast in my chest as I felt Valerian's breathing getting heavier and heavier as the seconds passed by."You feel that?" He groaned."That's the connection saying I should conceive you."My breathing hitched at his words. I can feel myself feeling hotter and hotter the more he's saying words to me. It also doesn't help that he is this close to me right now and I can feel him brushing himself against me."Ugh, fuck." A moan suddenly escaped my mouth.Oh shit.I bit my lower lip scared to make another sound."Oh, you like that?" he whispered in my ears."Valerian!" I gasped when he softly bit the skin on my shoulder."Shhh," he whispered shushing me off."I'm not even doing anything yet.""L-let me go," I managed to say although stuttering.Valerian let out a chuckle. "You sure about that, darling?"I deeply closed my eyes as I chewed on my lower lip.Fuck it.He knows exactly what he's doing and he's doing it on purpose.I stiffened when I suddenly felt
Natasha's POVThe silence is deafening inside Valerian's car we take the road home.I'm so glad that he got so busy earlier and he had to leave and attend meetings again. He wasn't able to give me my "punishment"He was so busy until the day end and I have to endure my boredom all the time I was left alone in his office. I was so bored but I can't complain or come to Valerian's meeting again like I did earlier because if I do that it might add up to my "sin" again and it will just give him more reason to get his way to me.I looked out the window.I want to tell Valerian to drive slowly so I could enjoy the view outside but he drives so fast. It's already dark outside and lights are everywhere making the city so pretty. The city at night is just beautiful and hit different when it's night. It's like peaceful and alive at the same time. I would love to walk around outside sometimes.Valerian always drives so fast like as if he's got 9 lives- I mean, he doesn't have 9 lives but he is im
Natasha's POVEventually, Valerian did what I told him to.He went out of my room and that's when I finally went out of the bathroom too.I quickly put on some comfortable clothes and went downstairs like what Valerian told me to- for the nth time.He didn't stop bugging me until I said I will obey him and go downstairs.I found Valerian sitting on one of the chairs at the long dining table. His elbows are placed above the table and his chin is on his knuckles.I sat on the chair beside him. I made sure to keep my distance so I skipped one chair from him.My gaze fell on what is on the table in front of him."Dinner," Valerian muttered.Did he want me downstairs to have dinner?Is that all the reason why he called me here?I already told him I'm not hungry so I don't know what is this.I stared at the steak on the plate and my mouth automatically watered.It looks so delicious.Valerian slowly pushed the plate in my direction.I don't really feel any hunger right now but I feel the ne
Natasha's POVI woke up early next day just like what Valerian told me to.After we had dinner- I mean, I had dinner because I was the only one who ate and he just watched me after he cooked for me.Valerian cooked steak for me until I was finally satisfied.I was so full after I ate everything.The good thing is, Valerian didn't complain or anything and he just cooked for me.So when he told me to wake up early, I didn't complain and did exactly what he said.He told me that he would bring me to work again. And when I asked him why, he told me that because we are going to do something important.I asked him what is the "important" thing we would do but he didn't tell me and I didn't bother him anymore because he might change his mind and wouldn't want to bring me anymore.I don't want to be left alone here because I have nothing to do and I will surely get bored.I quickly took a shower and prepared myself.I can't decide if I'm going to wear a dress again.My mind wanders to Valeria
Natasha's POV"Hello, Mrs. Fenrir," a woman approached me.She looks so pretty with her color pink hair. She also looks so stylish and fun with her pullover outfit.I smiled at her.She seems easy and fun but at the same time, she looks so sophisticated. I can't explain it but all I can say is she's really so pretty."Please call me Natasha," I told her."You are so beautiful. Just looking at you already gave me so many ideas on what look to do," she commented.I smiled at her again. "Thank you."Even if I don't want to do it, I still did. I read her mind and saw that she was really genuine in what she just said.I'm glad all the new people I have met these days are nice and don't have dark intentions or anything.A couple of minutes passed, and Joanna, the make-up artist- her whole team arrived.They have a lot of things with them including bags and bags of makeup and different styles of clothes.They are five of them and they are all. There are two gays on Joanna's team and they are
Natasha's POV5 years later. . ."Don't be scared. There's nothing to be scared of riding an airplane. You wouldn't even know we're up in the sky.""But, that's scary, Daddy!"I frowned as I glared at Valerian.I remember him telling me those exact words 5 years ago and me getting even more scared of the plane ride."Come here, baby. Mommy will hold you so you will not be scared anymore," I said as I grabbed my daughter from her father.My daughter pursed her lips. "But, I'm really scared, Mommy.""I know, I know, baby. But I'm here, Daddy is here too, we will protect you," I reassured her as I hugged her small body, fragile body."Darling, I think we should not force her, I can drive us to the place," Valerian chimed in.I shook my head. "The car drive will take over 10 hours, she will have a hard time."But, we should not force her, love," Valerian reasoned out."We are not forcing her, we're teaching her to be brave." I turned to my daughter. "Right, baby? You want to be brave, rig
Third-Person Point of ViewAs the sun started to rise, more damage from the fight became visible.The fight may have already stopped but the damage it has left from the hearts of the ones that survived can never be forgotten."Valerian!" Victorio yelled at Valerian upon seeing him with Natasha on his arm.Victorio's heart hammered inside his chest as he quickly ran in their direction."Is she okay? What happened to her?" Victorio quickly asked as he kneeled down in front of Valerian who was sitting on the floor."She's fine, she just passed out," Valerian answered. "How about you? Are you alright?" he asked when he saw the blood scattered all around Victorio's clothes and face.Victorio nodded. "Ezra is fine too, I kept him safe.""Thank you," Valerian thanked Victorio.Valerian feels so bad for Ezra. He knows he's been hurting so much from losing Elyse as he is too. They share the same pain so he understands Ezra with all his heart."It's done," Victorio whispered upon seeing Acanthu
Third-Person Point of ViewAcanthus and his pack prepared everything— from weapons to their skills and strength— before they fled their town to go to war.Acanthus had prepared his whole pack for years and years, getting them ready to get his revenge on his mortal enemy, vampires— the Fenrir's specifically. And now he is ready.Acanthus firmly believes that he has the upper hand upon seeing how devastated Valerian Fenrir looked earlier staring at his daughter, Natasha.He believed that he could surely use that to win and kill Valerian Fenrir.When Acanthus sent his daughter to the city to kill Valerian Fenrir, he was overly confident that Natasha could kill Valerian because he trained her starting from the day that Natasha learned how to walk and he's also aware of Natasha's skills and strength but Acanthus was more than disappointed when instead of killing Valerian, Natasha fell in love with him. He thought that he had already done everything for them to stop being mates.And so he h
Valerian's POVI am known to be ruthless.I am known to be a devil.Both by humans and vampires.I am often labeled as cold.As stern.As hard.I've lived hundreds of years in this lifetime and I already came to terms with that, that even I, myself believed that I am. I had to.But, upon hearing my sister's voicemails to me, I felt weak. Upon hearing that Natasha was crying and that my sister is also in danger in the middle of nowhere, I once again hated being immortal because the pain and worry that I feel felt like it could kill me but I could not be killed and it's the fucking worst. It's hell."Drive faster, Ezra," I ordered Ezra and he did so.I could see him gripping the steering wheel tightly as he drove my car, almost wanting to make it fly."Tell me what happened to Elyse, Valerian." He gritted his teeth.I fell silent.I had outlived my parents years ago. I saw my friends die. But there's nothing like the pain of losing my sister.I breathed sharply as memories of me and Ely
Third-Person Point of ViewAll Elyse could do was stare at Natasha's back as she ran away.Elyse tried to call out for her but Natasha was dedicated to not turning her back to look at her. She just continued to run until she was out of the mansion's gate.Elyse's eyes followed her as she watched her get in the car and drive off.Realizing that Natasha was gone, Elyse suddenly came back to reality.She quickly got her keys and went inside her car, deciding to follow the old red Chevy without thinking about anything.Elyse was more than willing to help Natasha because she strongly felt like her friend was in trouble even though Natasha would not tell her anything.She wanted to give as much help as she could and she thought if Natasha would not tell her what was wrong, she will going to find out about it herself. She can't just sit around and stand by knowing that her friend, Natasha might be in great danger. She knew that she would be in danger because of what she saw in her vision whe
Natasha's POVWe have arrived at our town after hours of driving.It's been months since I've been here, it has been months since I last saw my parents, it has been months since the last time I was here, and in those times, Sayna was still alive.I thought it would be nostalgic being in here again but it does not feel like it. It feels different, it feels strange. And I know because my comfort is not here anymore.I thought of the city, of the people in there, of Elyse, of Valerian. . .Valerian. . .Hurt is an understatement to describe the pain that I'm feeling in my heart right now.I lost the most important person in my life and it feels like I'm going to lose someone that had become important to me, too.It hurts.It hurts so much I don't have any words to describe what I'm feeling.The heaviness that I felt in my heart was so hard to contain that my eyes would not stop tearing up.I lost Sayna.I lost Sayna and the reason for that loss is the man that I love.Is the man that I l
Natasha's POVThe sun was already rising when we got home.It was a long flight but Valerian and I were fully rested because of how comfortable the insides of his private jet were.I got scared again when we got on the plane but Valerian never let go of my hand and never stopped reassuring me that everything would be okay and that I had nothing to be scared of.I was scared for the first couple of minutes when the plane took off but I eventually got comfortable beside Valerian and the next thing I knew, I was not scared anymore. It was like, I was not even scared of the plane ever.I was able to face my fear of the plane and I'm hoping that the fear of being home again and going back to reality of my life with Valerian will go away.As soon as we were set at home, Valerian immediately told me that he had to go to his office. He asked me if I wanted to go with him but I refused because I knew he had a lot of work to do and I didn't want to get on his way."Drive safe," I told him as I
Natasha's POVI took a deep breath as I stared at the ceiling.Valerian is lying down beside me and he is quiet.We have both been quiet since we got back to our villa from the restaurant.He managed to calm me down and stopped me from crying earlier at the restaurant by promising me a lot of things like he would fix everything for me and I believe him. I genuinely believed that he would do that.I started to trust Valerian unknowingly and I'm glad that I do.We had a quiet and peaceful dinner and when we got to our villa, no one said anything.I was quiet so was Valerian.A lot of thoughts running through my head and Valerian seemed like he was thinking deeply about something too."How are you feeling?" he suddenly asked beside me."Good," I answered. My voice came out hoarse because of all the crying that I had done earlier.Embarrassment started to form in me upon realizing what I had done earlier.I refused to believe that I broke down in front of him and it was even in public but
Natasha's POVThe sail from Athens to Santorini was approximately 4 hours but it became 6 because of all the miracles that Valerian and I did in the middle of the ocean.I can't believe that we even did it outside on the deck!When Valerian finally told me that we were going to Santorini, I got so excited that I just gave in to him and did whatever he wanted us to do and now I'm rethinking my decision because I feel kind of uncomfortable right in the middle of my thighs."Are you okay, darling?" Valerian asked. "Does your feet hurt?""Yeah, I'm okay," I just answered as I did my best to walk properly without limping towards the bed.I sighed loudly when I finally reached the bed and finally laid down."What happened?" Valerian asked as he sat down beside me on the bed."You happened," I replied.We're at the Villa house that Valerian got for us here at a resort in Santorini. I wanted to explore the place even the whole villa but I really felt uncomfortable in between my thighs that I
