They both stepped back almost at the same time. One hand held out the sword firmly while the other hand fell by their sides. Edward cleared the way for them because he was eager to watch Alpha Marcus be defeated.A clattering sound echoed in the atmosphere as their swords collided with each other's. The duo's level of alertness was definitely at equilibrium as nobody was giving room for the opponent to strike.Looking at Alpha Marcus, he was fighting with the instinct to kill Shakel. He abhorred the fact that he was betrayed and lied to. He knew quite alright that he was a liar and that is the reason why it pained his heart so badly. Of course, liars hate to be lied to. They seek trustworthy subjects to help them keep to all their dirty secrets.Clattering sounds filled the air once again as they both skillfully dodged each other's throws. Suddenly, Shakel's sword managed to penetrate beneath Alpha Marcus's sword. Alpha Marcus didn't see this coming that early as his eyes widened with
Sam woke up on the giant bed. She sluggishly stretched herself before crawling out of the bed. She walked around the house, searching for any traces of Ray but there was nothing found of him.She had gone to bed very early because of him. She hoped that on waking up, she was going to find him seated beside her. Sam heaved a sigh as she went and sat in front of the mirror, staring at her beautiful face through it.Staring at herself in the mirror swept memories into her head. She first thought about her little Sis who was still with Aunty Suzi. She has missed her a bit and wished that she is fine over there at Milcom City.A more painful memory swept into her head. The picture of her Mom appeared inside her head, causing her to tear up."Mom please, where are you?" She mumbled to herself as the tears finally strode down from her eyes. She looked around the room and felt a very dark aura looming all over her. She felt lonely like never before at that moment.Just then, she realized that
Lord Ray carried her into the bathroom and made her stand under the shower with him. He turned it on and the water poured down on them like a heavy rainfall.Sam was so weak that she just let him take care of everything. It seemed crazy for her to bathe while still putting on her clothes and besides she was too weak to do anything by herself at that point. Lord Ray didn't know how to start taking off her clothes. He doesn't want her to think of him as a lecher guy."Can I take off your clothes?" He asked under his breath. He wanted to help her quickly before his unquenchable demon crawled out of him. He needed to be very careful in controlling his demon in order for Sam not to find out the truth about who he truly was.He has decided to reveal his true identity to her after making her fall in love with him in just the few days they have to spend here. He needed to make her fall for him very quickly so that he could go and take care of his kingdom and search for Jasper as well.Lord Ra
The following morning, He gave her a bedside apology because when he returned back to the room the previous night, she was already fast asleep as she lay on the bed. It broke his heart to see that she was still lying there with her naked body.He grabbed the blanket and fiddled her beneath it. He felt bad for not giving her the satisfaction that her body so longed for.For that reason, he treated her to a sumptuous breakfast. "The food tastes really good." She said with smiles on her face. Lord Ray nodded his head, wondering if she forgot everything that happened so easily.He handed a plate of peppered meat over to her, urging her to finish everything in it. He watched her from the beginning of the meal to the end of it without eating anything.He wasn't hungry for food but rather, his unquenchable hunger could only be quenched by her. He has never felt this way for any woman. In fact, he had never thought of mating any woman but the unquenchable hunger he felt whenever he was aroun
"What are you?" Sam asked, grazing his fangs with the tip of her fingers. Feeling it reminded her of something but she couldn't get hold of any clue. Her action surprised him because he expected her to run for her dear life but she didn't flinch a bit.To him, it felt like her soul had just welcomed his soul and this feeling quickly tamed the demon in him.He didn't give her any response as he quickly squeezed the liquid from the herbs into her wound."You will be totally fine once you wake up." He finally said, standing up from the grass. He reached out his hand for her but she shoved it off."You haven't answered my question yet. What are you?" Sam's words sent chills across his spine. She wondered where she got the courage to ask him such a question. Ray was cold. He knew that he could definitely not be able to forge any lie to tell her.He paced up and down like a confused man. He was afraid of revealing his true identity to her. He didn't even know the exact point to start from
The next morning, she found herself lying on the giant bed. She was amazed as to how she got there. She could only recall struggling with him to first count the stars. She stretched like a dog as she crawled out from the bed.The aroma from the kitchen was something else but she chose to shower first. She rushed her bath and met the table already set up as she emerged from the shower. She quickly slipped into a simple noodle-handed, flimsy dress- blue in color.She joined him on the table where he was seated and waiting for her. She went and gave him a tight hug before she walked over to the other side of the table."Is this a feast or what?" She mumbled as she pulled out a chair. She rolled her eyeballs at the different dishes that were lined up on the table. She locked eyes with him, wondering how he managed to prepare everything within a space of two hours."Start with this. It will help your wound heal very fast." Ray said, handing a bowl that contains a green substance over to he
Sam admired the environment for the last time before she finally followed him into a pathway that led to a caved door. He blindfolded her eyes and wrapped his arms around her before a whirlwind swept them off from their feets.Her hair was standing on one end as air pressure breezed into the atmosphere. She prayed silently for a quick arrival to their destination until she felt her feet struck on a hard object. Everything around her became very quiet before it dawned on her they had finally reached their destination. He untied her eyes and led into a corridor. The place looked exactly like the place he earlier brought her. With the walls and everything, she guessed that they were close to his room.Jereni's mouth widened in shock as she bumped into them. She grabbed hold of Sam and gave her a warm hug. She wasn't expecting to meet her alive as she thought that she might have been killed by Lord Ray."Take care of her. I will be right back." Ray said to Jereni and teleported himself ou
Back at the Mansion, Jereni examined Sam's outlook to the extent that she even had to feel her temperature and ask her if she was actually alright. Sam was just beaming at her with smiles as she replied to her questions.Jereni was still shocked. In her eyes, Sam looked happier than before and what could be the reason for it. She never thought that she could still be alive to this point, not especially when she was left alone with Lord Ray. It still amazed her because she knew that Vampires and Humans are not always on good terms. Even if there had to be, it couldn't be in Sam's case.Come to think of it, her Mom went missing in the Vampire's Coven and a lot of bad things that happened in Western Hosbon was caused by the Vampires so she is the last person that would accept the Vampires for who they are. As she followed Sam to her room, her mouth itched to ask her if she happened to see Lord Ray disappearing but she couldn't. She was worried that Sam might hate her if she found out th
Edward returned back to Jule's pack with his Mom. She happened to be amongst Jasper's Drudge Vampires. Edward was extremely happy to finally set his eyes on his Mom.When he was crowned the Chosen Alpha of Jule's pack, his Mom was seated by his side. She got banished by his father back then but he won't let such a thing happen to her again. He now has the laws into his hands.Alpha Marcus was greedy for the Alpha's title so he decided to manipulate everyone to go against Edward and his Mom. He used cocooned Alice to begin his adventure but his evil plans backfired. He died alongside poor Alice. When the news got to Luciana about what happened to her children, she went into a coma and passed away afterwards. What pained Edward most was the death of poor Alice but on a second thought, he felt it was better for her to rest from all the suffering she had been passing through.Back at the Maklaiv Coven, Sam and Ray where seated on the cripsy sand of the beach, watching the water as it roll
Jasper was shocked and happy at the same time on seeing that it was Lord Ray. It would be much easier now for him to kill Ray.Without uttering any more words to each other, their swords collided with each other's. Noises from the clapping of their swords filled the air, making Sam turn back and watch them.Despite all his study with the soulshifting books, Lord Ray still overshadowed him with all his moves. He was as fast as flash as he dodged all strikes made by Jasper but the latter wouldn't relent. He jumped into the air and lifted his sword, his two hands tightly gripped the handle. He was about to thrust it into Lord Ray's ribs but Lord Ray used his own sword and defended it. The force he used in striking Jasper's sword made the sword drop to the floor. He was left with nothing to defend himself any longer.At that moment, Lord Ray became fully in charge. The only thing that was left for Jasper to do was to say his last prayer because he was definitely going to be killed.Sudden
On the D-Day, all the vampires assembled at southern Hosbon, waiting for the werewolf hunters to join them. After some minutes, Edward marched out with his most trained Werewolf Hunters and joined the vampires. He had to take the lead alongside Ray and Sam since he was the only one that knew the location of the Cave.It took them days before they finally arrived at a spot. The thick haze was hovering all over the place but they still managed to see the Cave. The sight of the Cave made everyone very furious. For the fact that their enemy has been hiding there for years and they have been fools all this while not to have found out about this cave. At that moment, the only thing that Sam thought of was her Mom. She knew that it wasn't going to be easy to find her since Edward said Jasper placed all his Drudge Vampires under a spell but she wouldn't give up in searching for her.Edward asked them to wait at that spot for him while he went to find a way that could lead them inside the Cav
She kept on riding him slowly with her waist and he just couldn't hold himself any longer. His hands and legs were still tied to the bed but he didn't mind. He began to move his waist up and down in order to meet up with his desire.At this junction, Sam was moaning and calling his name. She was no longer in control because the pleasure was too much for her body. Just as he was about to take her with him to the moon, he increased his pace. He then noticed the sudden change in her eyes and before he gave her the last thrust, she yanked her fangs into his neck.The following morning, Lord Ray woke up and narrowed his eyes as he didn't see her. The picture of what happened the previous night appeared in his head, making him smile within him. Before anything else, he rushed into the bathroom and had a shower. He bumped into the food that was served for him on the table and this got him even more scared.He teleported himself out of the room in search of her. He walked over to Jereni's roo
After forty-eight hours, there wasn't any more hope left for everyone. There wasn't any sign to show that Sam would ever wake up.Ray was devastated and sad. He couldn't even look at the baby's face. He didn't know whether to blame the Cadicarat or the baby since they were both the cause of all the pains he was passing through at that point. Suddenly, he stood up from where he was sitting and focused his gaze at the window. Sunrays shimmered in through the window and casted the shadow of the iron window on the wall.Seeing the sun, only one thing dropped into his heart. At that moment, all that he desired was to kill himself by burning his body in the sun. Nobody noticed him as he slowly began to walk towards the door that led to the sit out.As he walked, images of Sam drifted into his head. He didn't realize that his eyes had already teared up and the tears were threatening to stroll down from his eyes. All that he wished was to stand in the sit out and get burnt by the sun.As he a
The Grand Elders of the Volturi didn't take Lord Ray's condition too seriously. They all felt that he would get better since he was the Lord and also the most powerful amongst them. Rufus was shocked to see him the following day. He was dying and just like Sam, he was turning pale while his eyes were dilating with weakness."What should we do, my Lord?" Rufus asked, waving his head in pity. In his entire lifetime, he has never seen Lord Ray in such a condition even to the extent of not being able to speak to anyone.After some minutes, the Mouthpiece visited Lord Ray's Mansion. It was there and then he narrated the source of his sudden illness to them all. They all cried bitterly after they heard him say the right time had come for him to die."The Cadicarat…" flowed out from everyone's lips almost at the same time. "My Lord, why did you have to fall for a human when you could have any woman of your choice in this Coven? Oh! No." Rufus mumbled within himself.Suddenly, Lord Ray raise
"My Lord, I am sorry to tell you that she might not survive after giving birth." The doctor said as he bowed his head for Lord Ray."What do you mean by that? She is just like every other woman. Why can't she survive after her delivery?" Lord Ray asked with pain in his tone but the doctor was just quiet. Actually, it wasn't his fault and was going to put all his best just to make sure that she survived it. After all, he was noted as the best doctor in the entire Coven. He wouldn't let her die for the sake of Lord Ray because he knew the repercussions.They were still talking when they heard a scream coming from Sam's room. In fact, it was her voice that they all heard. Everyone scurried into the room almost at the same time.Sam was in serious pain. The way she toasted herself from one side of the bed to the other side showed it."Ray, what should I do? I can't feel myself anymore." She said with a cracked voice as tears trickled down from her eyes.Ray was speechless and confused as
After some minutes, an ambulance drove into the premises. Two young men wearing the same uniform; oxblood coverall rushed towards Aunty Suzi, carrying a stretcher. They placed Sam on it after checking her vitals."Sir, she is unconscious. Her B.p is 140 over 100. Her pulse is 72 and there is a rise in her temperature." One of the young men said to the man that climbed out of the car. From his look, he seemed like the doctor even though he wasn't putting on the Lab coat."You need to sign these papers before we take her with us. You don't have to panic. The issue is not a very tough one. Her b.p is high and we need to boost it with an infusion." The man said, handing over the papers to Aunty Suzi. After signing them, she handed it back to him and they were about to push her into the ambulance."Excuse me, Doctor." Everyone turned as they heard the voice, even the doctor turned as well. The voice emanated a different aura, fear mixed with dreadfulness."I don't want her to be admitted t
After waiting for him for so long, Sam urged Jereni to quickly drive her to Western Hosbon. She would definitely be in big trouble if Aunty Suzi's driver arrived before her.On their way, Sam started up a conversation. She was eager to know why Lord Ray's meeting was taking so long to end. He promised to drive her to Western Hosbon but it happened to be Jereni doing it right now."The Alpha of Jule's pack came to pay a visit to the Vampires. He caused a big scene." Jereni said, casting a glance on the side view mirror before she maneuvered the steering to the left lane of the tarred road."Is he that bad?" Sam asked, raising her brows. The picture of Edward dropped into her head. She knew he was a wolf but he never caused any scene whenever she was around him."Yes. He is the Vampire's mortal enemy." Jereni said, nodding simultaneously. She suddenly became comfortable with Sam, to the extent of sharing this kind of information with her. Sam didn't seem surprised by her words because s
