#Chapter 129 The Never-ending Wait

last update Last Updated: 2024-03-12 20:01:51

Joseph’s POV

Tessa was cleaned by the time I returned to her room. I just got off the phone with Connor and he was on his way back with Ruby.

Dr. Cornelia had finished washing the blood off Tessa’s body and bandaging her wounds. She was stable with many tubes attached to her frail body. She looked so peaceful like she was just sleeping.

It’s been a few hours since Connor had left and now, I sat here waiting for the moment he returned so her life could be saved.

The heart monitor began to beep like crazy; I jumped to my feet in alarm.

Dr. Cornelia ran toward us with a panicked look on his face.

“She’s crashing!” He told one of the nurses.

I stumbled backward as they worked on her. They ordered me to leave the room, but I could hardly hear them. My main focus was on Tessa and how well she was.

“Let’s go,” I heard the soft tone of Bernard as he grabbed my arm and pulled me toward the doorway.

I wanted to stay with her and help; I wanted to be with her. But I knew I wouldn’t do any good.

    Joseph’s POVI lay awake on the couch of Bernard’s house, staring up at the ceiling. It’s been a couple of hours since Bernard and Anna went to bed, and they allowed me to crash on the couch for the day. Once the sun started to go down, I went right back to the infirmary so I could be by Tessa’s side. I hated that I couldn’t be with her when she needed me the most.I thought about her days in that hideout, being tortured and fed by that slimy vampire. She must have been so scared; she probably thought she was going to die.I knew the only person I could truly blame for this was himself.Was she ever going to forgive me for this?I jumped when my phone started to ring beside me. When I looked at the caller ID I sat up quickly.It was Connor.“Connor,” I greeted, trying to keep my voice stable. “Did you get her?”“Yeah, I got her,” Connor said, but he sounded a little annoyed as he spoke. “She’s pretty but loud.”“What??” I heard Ruby’s voice in the background. “Did you just call me lou

  • My Vampire Professor   #Chapter 131 Waking Up

    Tessa’s POVI was becoming aware of the darkness surrounding me. I wasn’t afraid of it; my body welcomed it with open arms. That is if I could feel my arms. I couldn’t really feel or see my body; it was like I was bodiless.I floated in this darkness; I was completely weightless. I felt no pain; only warmth and what seemed like love.Surrounding me was a warm blanket of love and it made my heartbeat quicken.I wasn’t sure how long I had been like this; I wasn’t sure if I was still in that underground tunnel, or if I was somewhere different. My memory was a bit foggy, but I remembered how much pain I had once felt. I was dizzy from that vampire drinking my blood and he had beaten me to a point where I couldn’t move my body.He had pumped me with so many drugs, that I lost the concept of day and night. But my heart continued to beat rapidly in my chest and at that moment, I knew I wasn’t dead.Then, I started to hear the murmurs that surrounded me. They sounded so distant that I had to

    Tessa’s POVThis time when I slipped back into the darkness, I knew it was a temporary one. I had my best friend lying beside me; she curled up in the bed Dr. Cornelia brought for her and pushed against mine; she got as close to me as possible, and I could feel her warmth and love radiating from beside me.Whatever Dr. Cornelia gave me, numbed all the pain I once felt and made me feel like I was floating again. It also made my eyelids incredibly heavy. I didn’t want to fall asleep; I wanted my voice back. I wanted to talk to Ruby, but I couldn’t. I just wanted to sleep.It was a dreamless sleep; I was used to being alone in the dark. I once found it peaceful here, but now I just found it aggravating. I wanted to be with my friends; I wanted to be with Joseph. But instead, I was stuck here.Dr. Cornelia said that I was mentally, physically, and soulfully exhausted and that was why I couldn’t move or speak. It was like I was here, but I wasn’t here. He told me once I allowed my body pro

    Joseph’s POVIt felt good to finally allow myself time to rest. But I was woken early in the evening by the sound of hard knocking on my door. I groaned as I got myself out of bed and left my room. Tessa was back in the hospital with Connor watching over her, so I knew she was safe.She was also doing a lot better when I left her; I was relieved that she was going to be okay. I made a decision that as soon as she was on her feet again, I would take her far away from this village and bring her home. I never wanted her to return here again; not after what had happened with Ryan.That loud knocking continued, and I couldn’t help but roll my eyes. When I opened the door, I saw a very anxious Bernard standing before me with a couple of warriors on either side of him.I furrowed my brows together, confused.“What’s going on?” I asked, staring between all of them.“Ryan is back,” Bernard seethed. “He had the nerve to return to the village. I sense him going to his home.”I clenched my fists

    Tessa’s POV“So, you knew Joseph was a vampire this entire time?” Ruby asked, peering over at me with an alarmed and yet curious look.My face warmed as she continued to stare daggers at me, and I found myself lowering my head before answering.“Yes,” I finally said after a short pause. “I’m sorry I didn’t tell you sooner. I promised him I wouldn’t say anything…”“This entire time we’ve had a vampire as a professor…” she breathed; it wasn’t a question, but I nodded anyway. “And it’s safe to be around him?”I couldn’t help but smile at my best friend; it was nice to have someone to talk to about this now.“There’s a lot of stereotypes when it comes to vampires,” I told her. “Like they don’t need blood to survive. Joseph doesn’t drink blood like that.”She rose her brows.“If that’s the case then what happened to you? How’d you get hurt? They said you suffered from severe blood loss.”I met her eyes and bit onto my bottom lip almost nervously as she assessed my face and every bruise tha

    Tessa’s POV“Forget everything?” I asked hoarsely, glancing at Ruby who looked pale before looking back at Joseph. “Why do you have to make her forget?”“Ruby having any knowledge of this place, or our kind is dangerous, Tessa,” Joseph said, narrowing his eyes at me. “The minute we decided to bring her here, we always had the plan to wipe her memory afterward.”“What about me? Isn't it dangerous for me to know any of this information too?”He didn’t say anything, which only made my heart grow incredibly heavy. I found myself wondering what was wandering through his mind at that moment. But I kept my mouth shut because I was completely speechless.“I won’t say anything if that’s what you’re worried about,” Ruby said with a deep frown.Joseph sighed and looked at her.“That’s not all I’m worried about,” he told her gently. “It’s easier this way. I’m sorry, but it’s already been decided.”I wanted to protest some more, but before I could, the door of the infirmary opened, and Anna ran in

    Tessa’s POVI stared at Joseph with shock; his face had gone expressionless. I must have looked extremely confused to him because he sighed and met my eyes.“It’s for the best,” he told me, keeping his eyes rested on mine. “I don’t want to take any chances…”“Because of one bad vampire?” I argued, trying to keep my emotions under control. But the longer I stared into his eyes, the more hurt I was becoming.“It’s not just one bad vampire, Tessa,” Joseph argued but he kept his tone level. “ There are rogue vampires lurking in our forests that we don’t know on which day they will crave for human blood again. There are other creatures. I don’t know if I can even trust everyone in my tribe at this point. It’s not safe for you here and I’m not going to argue with you about it.”“Don’t I have a say in—”“No,” he said flatly. “You don’t have a say in anything. This is my decision and I’m not going to let you stay here any longer. As soon as Dr. Cornelia gives me the okay, I’m bringing you hom

    Tessa’s POVWar is coming?What did that even mean?Could Ryan’s words really be taken seriously after everything he had done and lied about? Thankfully, I wasn’t the only one who was questioning this. Joseph asked the same question and Bernard replied with, “It’s not something I’m chancing.”I also didn’t know what that meant.What was Bernard going to do?I was consumed with worry and had to step away from the door. Joseph wanted me to pack my things so he could take me home, but it almost sounded like we might need to stay and figure out how to protect this village.I certainly didn’t want anything happening to it.Soon, Joseph was walking back into the house, and I was whipping around to face him. He raised his brows, but that frown never left his lips.“It’s not polite to eavesdrop,” he muttered.“Do we need to stay to take care of business?” I asked; I didn’t even bother trying to defend myself.He began to walk past me and toward his bedroom.“No,” he answered over his shoulder

I sighed and ran my fingers through my hair, letting it fall around my shoulders.“Are you really surprised?” I asked her, rolling my eyes.She wrapped an arm around my shoulders and held me close to her.“Just take a deep breath. Maybe it’s not too bad this time,” she said, trying to appear soothing.I gave her a pointed look.“Please, when is it ever not that bad?”“Well, they aren’t vampires yet. So, it could be worse,” she said, shrugging her shoulders and chuckling.“I can only imagine the trouble they will get into once they are vampires,” I muttered.Ruby only laughed harder as we walked into the school.

I screamed out in pain, my entire body quivering.“You are doing great,” the doctor said, looking at my vitals. “That was a big contraction. It won’t be much longer until it’s time for you to push.”“Where the hell is Joseph?” I asked through my teeth.I knew he was working when I went into labor but that was several hours ago. I thought he would be here by now.“He texted Carter a bit ago and said he was almost here,” Ruby assured me. She placed a cool cloth on my forehead, and I sighed in relief.

Not since my daughter, Amaya, was born.“I know,” I told her honestly, biting my lower lip, making Amy huff with dismay as she grabbed more lipstick to fix my makeup that I unknowingly ruined. “With everything that went down 4 years ago, marrying Joseph just didn’t seem right. I really wanted to get my life back in order. I wanted to succeed in my career, Joseph needed to adjust to his new role as Overseer, and plus, I didn’t want to get married pregnant.”This made both girls pause what they were doing and lo

I glanced at my father’s house, hoping and praying that he was still inside and that he was safe.I glanced over my shoulder and through the fighting I saw Joseph kneeling on the ground beside Benard who had blood pouring out of his neck. My heart shattered in an instant. My entire concentration and faith had been broken as I felt sick from the sight before me.Bernard… no… He couldn’t be… My thoughts went back to Anna’s vision a while back about Bernard dying during a battle.Was this the battle he was meant to die in?

She was surrounded by my dark smoke, though it didn’t feel like smoke, it only looked like it. She couldn’t exactly see what was happening, but she could hear the sounds of death and destruction around her. Innocent people screaming and crying for mercy. The sounds of supernatural’s fighting and killing one another.There was so much darkness and despair, that Ruby felt a sense of dread weighing on her chest. Her breathing hitched when some of the smoke cleared, and she saw blood soaking the grass around her feet. Puddles of blood were everywhere. The sky was hazy and unrecognizable.Tears welled up in her eyes as she looked at all the bodies that occupied the earth. This was too much for her to handle; why did she have to be cursed with seeing
