"But at times I do get scared! Sometimes I feel like this whole thing is bound to end, while other times I feel like going in as there seem to be incidents ahead of us" West slowly let out."When I found out you were a vampire, like damn! I was scared, too afraid of you""Even if you don't say it, I know you still do, I sometimes catch your empty stares at me and how you seem to tense up whenever I touch your sensitive spots, you just didn't want to tell me how you felt" Lincoln spoke in between.They were both gazing at the far end of the woods as they sat side by side on the grass field.West scoffed "I hate it that I'm so easy to read while you seem so closed up""It's not fair"Lincoln smirked "Nothing is fair under the sky"West furrowed her brows "Is something happening soon?"Lincoln grinned "A lot has been happening, well..." he slowly stood up from the grass as he stood before West.West raised her head to look at him, he was blocking the moonlight which gave him a devilish a
Lincoln let out a throaty laugh before smirking at her "You don't have to be so scared, it won't come up anymore "They argued for a while before West finally relaxed and agreed with Lincoln but decided to stay close to him....very closely."I didn't expect you to relent so soon" Lincoln teased but West was too preoccupied with her eyes roaming around to care about his words.Lincoln didn't say a word as they both got out of the woods and had to walk to the nearest park to get their car.They walked on foot as they let the evening breeze blow their head and refresh them.They were walking side by side along the footpath of the road.The vehicle's screeching sound and horns honking filled the area as the two figures walked with different thoughts in mind.Soon they got to the park and Lincoln claimed his car and drove off with his little wife.On getting home, Lincoln slowly parked his car at the front door and got down.West was too tired she pushed the door open and climbed out of th
Lincoln slowly pulled up in the compound that was lit, it was a small apartment building that was for an individual.This was the new house Romansata was now staying after spending weeks at the hotel for a while.Lincoln had bought this house for her so she could keep the sick child and prevent her from contracting other illnesses.Lincoln had a frown settling on his face as he climbed out of the car, his dark aura filled the air, and he was like a blood-sucking demon which he was, he slowly buttoned his suit and his tall frame towered over the car as he walked towards the back seat and brought out a black umbrella.His expression remained the same as he pulled out the black umbrella and shut the door of the car.He stood there with the umbrella edge touching the ground while he was standing in a position that was giving out a vibe of an assassin.His dark eyes were shining and his pale face was visible under the light.He slowly took a step after a while, his brown leather shoe touch
Romansata couldn't say a word as she immediately tried to dash out of the living room, her speed was faster because she was a vampire.Lincoln had anticipated that as he raced after her and pinned her to the wall close to the kitchen.Romansata gritted her teeth as she turned to see that Lincoln was pinning her to the wall with the umbrella he had come with.He perked the tip of the umbrella on her waistline as it dug into her skin, for some reasons the umbrella was too sharp.It wasn't just an umbrella, it was an ancient sword that looked and had the sharp of an umbrella.It was used by the ancient vampires that were sent and were living amongst Humans, they could carry this weapon anywhere without it being noticed as a destructive weapon.It could kill and it could penetrate the liver."Scared now huh? You should have thought about that a long time ago before you fucking up out of hell" Lincoln's veins popped up as his eyes widen in anger,he gritted every word with anger laced in hi
West sighed for the umpteenth time that evening due to unrest.She was sitting on the bed while folding both arms on her chest and pouting like an abandoned child.She kept gawking at the wall clock that was hung on the wall of her bedroom.For some reason, she couldn't catch some sleep as her mind kept wandering to Adam who left the house hours ago and it felt like forever.He still hadn't returned, West was beginning to feel agitated and worried that he probably changed his mind and would be spending the night with his family.His family??Those thoughts tucked at her heart as it bothered her to her every cell, she was pained, and that she was aware of."Can he just show his face already" West collapsed on the bed while groaning in frustration. Her face was laced with worry.Her eyes kept wandering to the phone on the nearby table, she couldn't wait to hear a vibrating sound that would echo in the whole room but it seemed as if it was never going to happen.West let out another groa
West widened her eyes in shock when the light was turned off in the room.She was wrapped in the duvet but her eyes bulged out as she stared at the man in shock.She had initially thought he was leaving but he had other agendas instead.He went to turn off the lights and now it was dark in the room, with only the light from the moon as a source of lighting.Lincoln's face was dead serious at the moment as he took steps back to where West was sitting with the duvet on the bed.West swallowed hard with every step he took towards her, with the duvets around her, she suddenly felt like she was a sacrificial lamb, she was like his prey and he was about to bounce on her.Lincoln came towards her and stood close to the bed while looking at the girl who was wrapped around the duvet and it made her look like a dough.He grinned a bit before his words rolled out "I know it's alarming and too weird of me but...."West felt the air tense as she suddenly felt hot all over, her ears were red at thi
West narrowed her eyes at him "The first day I came to this mansion, you told me never to go anywhere close to your room and then I asked if you were keeping a concubine but you just smirked" Lincoln dropped his head as amusement flashed passed his eyes before raising it again to look at her "Has that been bothering you?"West pouted "Not really, it sometimes crosses my mind...it's nothing serious" West didn't want to feel.Lincoln stood up from his bending position and sat close to her on the bed as he fiddled with his nails, his head down.West looked at him through her side eyes from time to time, Lincoln was surely bringing out a new part of him she had never witnessed before. He was fiddling with his nails...Was he nervous?West wondered before smirking, mimicking Lincoln's regular expression "Everything has a reason" she said but Lincoln didn't respond to that."I guess the young man close to me has an objection because he has been maintaining that frown for a long time now"
"What does that even mean? It's a broken word" West said with furrowed brows and Lincoln just smirked "It's a vampire language so it's no wonder you can't understand it.""The owner of the necklace is a vampire....hmm" West narrowed her eyes at Lincoln "Are you perhaps the man from that night? don't even think of lying to my face"A flash of surprise passed by his eyes for a moment as he cleared his throat in unease.West hardened her eyes, and she was ready to punch him with the thought that if he was truly the one, then he deserved a good beating, the heck would he make her pass out after receiving her aid?"Lincoln?" Lincoln shifted a bit away from her as he scratched the back of his head "Umm so you were there!" He muttered to himself but West picked what he said."Of course, I was there! You seriously had some guts you know! Knocking me off when I've helped you!" West immediately berated him."I didn't know that!" Lincoln whispered."What a cheap lie! You didn't know that you kn
"Let the heavens and the earth bear us witness. The heavens as executors, the earth as eye witness to this peace treaty between Vampires and Witches" King Cassian shouted, addressing the crowds, the king was standing in front of the hall's balcony, the crowds were massive, all from every part of Hagrid, in the middle of the crowds was a space that maintained the barrier, vampires at the right-hand side while the captured witches were on the left-hand side.The witches were not as many as the number of vampires there, but they were many.They were told about this treaty, the oldest wizard there, the father of Miguel Cervenka led the witches, and Miguel was amongst the crowd of captured witches and wizards.Some were not in support of this peace treaty but they had no choice but to swear the oath of allegiance after Cervenka,Miguel's father, summoned their goddess and The Vampires prayed to the heavens and their past kings."This peace treaty shall be passed down from our generation to
"Do not spite my dead son, I won't accept that!" Hugo growled."How did you think your son died?? he was working for a witch, I was there to witness it and Kyle and Mateo were also there" Rhysand rolled his eyes "That is to show that some vampires who think have egos are sort of worthless without pride....but that's not what I am here for" Hugo staggered backward while the king gazed at him with a piercing look "What do you suggest we do Rhysand""Let's form a long-lasting treaty that will bond the two sides so they can never break the agreement "Lord Drogo cleared his throat "How are we sure this will work? We can't control them with just written words on a scroll that can get torn over time"Viscount Magnus Lestat twitched his mouth a bit "That's why he suggested a huge wall that can stand as significant agreements between the worlds and also an oath of allegiance""I think it's a good idea then" Lord Drogo acknowledged.Some also whispered amongst themselves in agreement on the m
Walking into the hall of King Cassian Von Vendela, Rhysand and Mateo entered to see the lords gathered there.King Cassian frowned "Rhysand why did you hold this meeting and come late?" He asked.Rhysand had called for this meeting a while ago when he got to the palace and now it was commencing."My lord" he acknowledged, not bowing as he walked straight to the front of the king.Lord Drogo was seated in the very first seat close to the King's throat, lord Armand,lord Molocbai, Viscount Magnus Lestat, Lord Vittorio, and Emiel Velkan were there with so many other lords.They were all wearing blue robes with golden embodiments on them, their hair was long and close to their waistline, and they backed it in a bun.Rhysand's gaze wept to Prince Ollivander who was sitting on the right-hand's throne close to the king. Sensing his gaze on him, Prince Ollivander adjusted nervously on his seat while averting his gaze elsewhere.Prince Thibor was sitting amongst the lords, sitting close to the
"Am I the only one who heard that??" Rhysand asked ridiculously and Mateo and Kyle walked over to the bed "That sound came from her""Call the Physician Kyle" Rhysand bubbled in delight.Soon the Physician Was checking Amren, she placed a hand on her neck, and her face remained bland as she concentrated on her diagnosis.Rhysand and Mateo including Kyle couldn't seat still, Rhysand had both hands folded on his chest, his eyes remained on the physician, waiting for him to make the news.Rhysand felt his hands were covered in sweat as he sat there nervously, after a while, the physician turn to look at them."Well...Prince Rhysand""I'd appreciate it if you go straight to the point" Rhysand cut through as he asked, his eyes resting on Amren's body."Yes, Was it just us or...did it happen? we heard that sound from her " Kyle backed up Rhysand's words.Mateo remained quiet as he just waited for what was to come.The room had its tension as the air hung up, It was as if it was closing in o
"I was thinking of letting the king know of Rhysand's passing, it's been five days now" Kyle suggested as they both walked into the house.The living room was quite as usual as they made their way to the small stair and ascended it,"Just keep mute Kyle" Mateo groaned out in displeasure, his face was stoic as he knocked on the door but didn't hear a sound.Kyle was standing behind him with a pouty face "Let's just go in, maybe she's probably sleeping" Kyle concurred."What if she's dressing up?" "She would have answered" Kyle argued back."I do not have the time to bicker or banter words with you" Mateo interjected but Kyle had already held the doorknob and pushed the door open.The smell of smoke first hit their nose before their eyes scanned the room.Such enough, Rhysand was still in the bed but Amren was nowhere in sight.Their eyes scanned the room as they made their way into the room, Mateo laid his eyes on the table and they quickly walked over to see the items on it, Kyle mad
"Prince Rhysand hasn't returned to the palace for days now" King Cassian Asked Hugo who nodded."Did he perhaps find out that you know he did that?" The king inquired."I sent the body to the old Physician my lord," Hugo said quietly, his both hands folded "She did a test on his body and found that he was indeed killed not by vampire claws but by a witch"King Cassian frowned "you mean, Rhysand didn't kill Caine? But a witch?" Hugo sighed "I do not know how this whole thing came about, Rhysand has always hated Caine to the core and that's the very reason he had Caine banned from the human world and sentenced to Crege where Caine saw death face to face " King Cassian relaxed his back on the chair "I know Rhysand isn't that stupid to do that to you or Caine, he can get Caine punished not killed" "My lord, then who is this witch?" Hugo asked."Feyre?" The king asked instead and Hugo shook his head "We have destroyed the whole clan of witches and their community ""Then we have no othe
Just like that, Amren was living in the house Rhysand had kept her, his body laid on his bed as they used incense to keep his body warm.It has been two days and he's still not responding or making an attempt to wake and the hopes within Amren crumbled even more.The doctor has confirmed that he was dead as he was stabbed by that witch's sword that contains deadly magic and poisons.But somewhere within couldn't settle for that, she had always seen him as a strong man that couldn't fall, he was untouchable and strong.He couldn't die.Amren wept close to his body "Rhy....please wake up and I promise you won't be hurt for a second time, I know how to use my magic now and I'll protect you, your mom is no more so she can't hurt you, I failed you.... I failed to keep you safe but rather brought you closer to your death, I'm sorry" Her eyes were red and swollen.Soon, Mateo and Kyle came in, they both looked thinner just like Amren who hadn't been able to eat anything for days as she kept
All strength in her faded off, her soul lost its very essence, Amren's heart clenched on her chest, her blurred eyes looking at the lifeless man in her arms.Words couldn't form in her throat, the pain numbed her that she had no actions left to perform, no words to speak out, and all her brain cells were too short to process a thing.The pain made her lips quiver, her hands grow cold, and Amren felt like a lost thing.The whole room bore tension and Amren felt the cave was closing in on her, her face twisted in pain before she burst out.All the pain she had been holding in until now, she let them out as her ear-piercing cry ran out of her throat, hoping for the cry to lessen the pain she was feeling in her heart.For it to reduce the weight of hate in her heart, and for it to cleanse the memories of how Rhysand died in front of her."Argh" Mateo and Kyle couldn't retract their gazes, their eyes numb as they turned red."Is that Brother Rhysand?? Mateo, this can't be true right? It's
"Have you discovered Rhysand's whereabouts?" Hugo asked the guard before him but he shook his head "Not yet."Hugo balled his fists "Keep searching and be more proficient ""Yes sir" he bowed before leaving to find Rhysand's whereabouts.Hugo's eyes narrowed to the far distance "I'll get you Rhysand " ••••Meanwhile, inside the cave, The once quiet place was now filled with tension, They had initially thought it was just Feyre but it turned out several witches were also there with her.Rhysand killed two of the witches with his bare hands but the others kept using their magics to outrun them.Amren Watched on with dread, her eyes following Rhysand's every move, alerting him when a witch was close to striking him, her heart drumming heavily in her rib cage, hoping he would come out unscathed.Feyre was rather aggressive, she had injured Rhysand a few times with the multiple blades sent his way, she summoned blades at him, and they pierced his chest, cutting him roughly but the part
