That afternoon, Clarice was bored inside the room so she went outside, settled on the chair under the shade of the tree, enjoying the gentle breeze while reading a book.Lorey was doing laundry at the back of the house while Grandpa Eliezer was taking a nap in his room.She closed her eyes for a moment, enjoying the peaceful surroundings, serenaded by the sounds of birds chirping in the branches of the trees.When she opened her eyes, she was greeted by the sight of her beloved, standing before her, holding a restaurant take-out bag, smiling at her."How's your afternoon, babe?" he asked, settling on the wooden bench beside her and planting a kiss on her forehead lovingly.She smiled. "Great so far.""I bought your favorite apple pie with cheddar and soda for your afternoon snack," he said, handing the present to her."Wow, delicious!" She smiled happily, looking into the restaurant's take-out bag. "Thank you so much, babe," she said, planting a kiss on his cheeks affectionately."How
The day had finally come for Luna Viviana to fly to Australia. She was mentally and emotionally ready for her first trip outside the country without her husband by her side.She sat on the bed, checking her bags, not wanting to miss anything, especially her passport and other important travel documents. She can't enter Australia without them.Her bags were already taken by the servants and already loaded into the trunk of her husband's car. She felt happier nowadays because her husband had been giving her enough attention in bed and outside the bedroom as well.He became attentive to her needs and affectionate, making her happy and satisfied.So far, their marriage life has turned peaceful again just the way she likes it. Although sometimes he became absent-minded and zoned out as if something was bothering his mind and if she asked him why, he would say nothing.She knew that her husband was busy with the landslide currently going on in the villages, and he was hands-on with helping
The couple landed in a clearing near the lake."Oh, why are we here?" Clarice asked, surprised, looking at the calm dark water of the lake in front of them. "Are we going for a night swim?"Alpha Callum grinned. "No. We are here for some loving," he whispered naughtily. "We shall start working on child #2," he answered.Clarice giggled. "You are so horny and naughty!" she exclaimed in amusement."Wait here for a second. I'm going to my house to get the tent, blanket and pillows. We will spend the night here," he said."Okay, hurry up. If you keep me waiting for so long, I'll return to the farm house," she jokingly said."Promised, I'll be back before you get tired of waiting," he said, and initiated teleportation in his mind.Alpha Callum disappeared from the area before Clarice could even utter a reply.Clarice walked to the edge of the bank and looked at the pristine lake. The water looked calm and magical. She looked heavenward. The stars and full moon in the sky cast a warm glow a
The following day, after breakfast, Alpha Callum and Clarice chatted with Grandpa Eliezer."Guys, enjoy the trip and get back home soon. I'm excited about meeting Caden, my great-grandson," Grandpa Eliezer said enthusiastically."We will definitely return quickly, Pops," Alpha Callum replied. "We will quickly return here even before we arrive there," he joked.Amused, Clarice laughed, pinching his arm."Kidding aside, guys, have you already packed everything?" Grandpa Eliezer asked, chuckling."Yep. I finished packing a few days ago, Grandpa. We are ready to go," Clarice responded cheerfully."Alright then, good luck on your trip, and enjoy your journey," Grandpa Eliezer said."Thanks, Pops." Alpha Callum smiled.Clarice said, "I'm going upstairs to put everything in my shoulder bag," she said, and climbed the stairs back to her room on the second floor.As soon as Clarice was out of earshot, Grandpa Eliezer asked, "Son, how is your wife there in Australia?""She has already arrived i
Noon came, the couple pulled over at the restaurant along the road and had lunch there. After half an hour of resting, they continued their journey, wanting to arrive at their location before evening came.Despite driving a little bit too fast on the open highway, they arrived at Lashpar Village at 5:30 in the afternoon.They parked the car in a clearing on the outskirts of the village. There are about ten wooden houses nearby."Where is Marina's house?" Alpha Callum asked, eyeing the dilapidated house a few meters away from where they parked their car."It's the wooden house under that white oak tree," Clarice pointed at the house in badly need of repairs. Her brows furrowed. Wait a minute, the last time she came here, the house didn't look like that. What's going on?"Why are the houses here looking like they have been abandoned for a long time?" Alpha Callum asked in bewilderment. "Are you sure that is Marina's house?" he asked in disbelief."Yup. I'm sure. I've been here several t
A woman came down from the wooden staircase and looked at the visitors. "What can I do for you sir?" she asked, looking at the unconscious woman in his arms. "What happened to her?" she inquired."My wife suddenly passed out," Alpha Callum replied."Oh, let's bring her upstairs to my house, so I can help you revive her," the woman offered kindly."Is it alright?" Alpha Callum asked. He doesn't want to impose himself on the owner of the house."Yes, please. My house is always open to anyone who needs my help," the woman said kindly."Thank you," Alpha Callum lifted Clarice's unconscious body and carried her upstairs to the living room of the wooden house."Bring her to my room, sir, and put her on the bed," the woman ordered.Alpha Callum obeyed and gently lowered Clarice's body onto the wooden bed."Why did she pass out?" the woman started asking questions. "You guys are not from here, right?" she asked."Yes. We came from the city. We are here to visit our son and bring him back to t
Alpha Callum pondered Clarice's question for a few seconds. "We will take him to the farm. I think Pops can heal him fast," he said confidently."Yeah, I think so," Clarice agreed."Let's go there now," Alpha Callum said."But the journey is quite long," she protested worriedly, deeply concerned about her son's weak condition. Caden's body was getting hotter in her arms.Alpha Callum smiled. "You forgot that I can teleport you back to the farm house in just a few minutes," he reminded her."Ah, I almost forgot about it. What are we waiting for? Let's do it now!" she said urgently."Wait a minute, I will park the car on the side of the road before we teleport back to the farm house," he said, carefully maneuvering the car into the small clearing beside the road."Why didn't you teleport us to Lashpar Village? Why go through the hassle of a long journey?" she asked."Because my teleportation skill has limits, babe. I can't teleport to a place I have never been before, that's why," he sa
Clarice went upstairs and grabbed a chair, put it near Granpa Eliezer's room and sat on it. She won't be sleeping tonight, she will wait until her son wakes up. She wants to make sure he is okay.She went back to her room, grabbed a book and returned to her spot outside Grandpa's room and started reading the book.She was reading chapter 50 when Lorey exited the room. "Luna, good news. Your son is already awake!" she said happily.Clarice dropped the book on the chair and rushed inside the room. She found Grandpa Eliezer talking to her son."Your mommy is here, son. Don't cry anymore," Grandpa Eliezer said gently, standing up to give way to the mother.Caden looked at his mother. His eyes widened in surprise at seeing her. "Mommyyyyy!"Clarice burst into tears. Tears of happiness rolled down her face. "Baby, you're finally awake! I'm so happy right now," she said in elation, hugging her son tightly, showering his face with kisses."Mom, where are Aunt Marina and Uncle?" Caden asked, c
Magnus smiled and broke the awkward silence. “We were elated to finally meet the Supreme Punisher. Rest assured that we will give our very best to our jobs, and we will not abuse our power and position,” he assured her quickly.“Thank you, Magnus. I’m glad to meet you all. Together we will work hand in hand to preserve peace and unity for the welfare of all peace-loving creatures on this planet,” Clarice responded, her words laced with wisdom.“Yeah. Peace for all," Magnus agreed. "This moment calls for a celebration,” he added cheerily, clapping his hands, his gaze glued on the masked woman who deeply aroused his curiosity.The door opened. Women, wearing black attire, arrived, holding silver trays in their hands. The women put the wine glass filled with red liquid on the table. After finishing the task, the women left the room quietly.“Everyone, let’s drink this high-quality blood taken from teenage human boys and girls,” Magnus said, picking up his glass, and raising it. The other
The following day, the women are well rested, having breakfast in the kitchen, discussing their planned activity in the evening.“So, tonight, I finally get to meet Magnus and the staff?” Clarice asked, while eating apples.“Yeah. Unless something comes up again,” Demetria jokes.“I’m sure nothing will happen tonight, am I right?” Clarice asked.Demetria observed her student’s face. “Why? Are you scared of meeting other vampires?"“Yeah, honestly, I’m feeling anxious right now. I don’t know why,” Clarice said, dropping another slice of apple into her mouth.“You have killed humans before. I thought you had already been toughened by such an experience. And don't forget, you are more powerful than any vampire alive today, so no need to feel anxious,” Demetria said.“Humans have no power, but vampires are a different breed, and I’m not really used to fighting and dealing with difficult problems yet. That is why I’m a bit apprehensive that Magnus and the others will see through my facade,
If they are the police authorities, then she will allow them to pass. If they are one of the enemies, then she will freeze them until the police arrive.When Clarice was already hovering above the speedboats and coast guard vessels, she knew Martha’s team had finally arrived. She saw her, the only female among the men. Martha was looking despondent and anxious. She's probably worried about her missing niece.While she was staring at Martha, she was wondering if she would work with her to help her and her team in chasing the bad guys once Demetria leaves. She realized that human cops are too few compared to the millions of people they have to watch.A cop's job is to protect people, preserve peace and order in society and arrest bad people. Just their numbers are not enough to do the job. That is why Demetria's contribution is valuable to the police force.Now, she is wondering if she will continue Demetria’s legacy, helping police locate the most notorious and baddest villains hiding
Demetria smirked. “Relax, boys. No need to bring out the spray. We will come with you to the basement to attend the party. I hope it’s fun,” she said calmly.The men looked at each other in amusement.“You know what? You are enthusiastic and brave. I like your attitude, saving us the hassle of forcing you to come,” Dave said, grinning wickedly.Demetria shrugged. “We’re already here. There is nothing we can do but move forward. We have come this far. I’m hoping the party is enjoyable so we don’t regret our actions,” she said, pretending she’s not aware of what’s going to happen next.Clarice cleared her throat. “Guys, I just want to ask this. After the party, can we still leave this island alive?” she asked innocently.The men looked at each other and laughed maniacally, finding the question silly. The men are now openly displaying the evil side they were trying to hide at the start of their meeting.“That depends,” Oscar replied cryptically.Demetria stood up. “Can we leave Rachel he
"We will only stay here for a few hours, trying to find clues. If we can't find anything worth pursuing then we will leave and try another establishment," Demetria finally said."I agree with that," Clarice responded with a nod.After one hour of waiting, the women finally entered the club. The club was crowded and the women didn't like the chaotic atmosphere inside the club."I hate clubs like this. So crowded, so noisy and people are everywhere, suffocating me. The music is too loud. I think my eardrums will explode.'' Clarice groaned in dismay."Me too," Demetria agreed. "Let's wander around and find clues," she added.The women ordered drinks, danced on the dancefloor and socialized with others, pretending they enjoyed the crowd and the music but their eyes were always on the lookout for anything and anyone suspicious.The evening was getting deeper, nothing had happened, frustrating the girls.Surprisingly, no one attempted to flirt with the women or tried to invite them to leave
Five months later.Clarice had a serious conversation with Demetria in the living room early in the morning."Dear, tell me. Are you ready now to be left alone on your own?" Demetria asked."Why?" Clarice's brows furrowed, feeling apprehensive."You are doing well in your training. It's about time I disappeared. I will leave next month. But before I left, I promised Martha I would help her and her team. They are currently facing difficulties locating the leaders of the illegal underground syndicates terrorizing the city. I will help them before I disappear," Demetria said calmly.Clarice felt sad. She was so used to having Demetria by her side that she felt lonely once her mentor leave."OK. I understand. I will accompany you on your missions. It's now time to put my training into action," she said excitedly."Good. Let's do it together then," Demetria smiled. "But before that let's discuss the Midnight Wanderers Vampire Association. Because tonight I plan to bring you to headquarters
“Are you shocked to see yourself inside the glass coffin? You look like twins!” Demetria said, smiling in amusement.Clarice couldn't believe she had finally met her doppelganger, but unfortunately, she was lying inside the coffin. "I was shocked indeed! This is unbelievable!” She admitted, astounded.Demetria said, “Are you curious what she has done to deserve this?”"Yes please. Tell me,” Clarice replied with intense curiosity flashing in her eyes.Demetria begins her narration. “Number 3 loves studying medicine and plans to become a chemist. But she created a deadly virus and tested it on a small human village, wiping out the entire population. No one survives."“That’s horrible! What kind of virus?” Clarice asked, shocked.“No one really knows what kind of virus it is, but according to the elders' investigations, it was airborne. She released the virus in the air during the daytime and this lady refused to reveal what kind of virus she had made in her home laboratory. She hid her
When Clarice landed back in the house on the sacred mountain, Demetria was waiting for her in the living room. She expected she would be scolded because it was the first time she had been out of the sacred house and visited her family without permission from her mentor.“Where have you been, dear?” Demetria asked, observing her face closely.She cleared her throat and explained, “Um, I tested my power and teleported to visit my family. Are you angry that I left without permission?” She asked apprehensively.To his surprise, Demetria shrugged her shoulders, uncaring. No sign of anger on her face.“Not at all, dear. Now that you are practicing your powers, I know you will be visiting your family soon. And that is exactly what happened. I can’t stop you, so no big deal. You can do anything you want. Whatever it is, I will support you,” Demetria replied calmly.She smiled in relief. “Thank you for not being mad at me.”“So, how’s everyone back home?” Demetria asked. “Did Viviana succeed i
Clarice teleported to Grandpa Eliezer's farm at the last minute. She landed in the river. Thankfully, no one was there when she landed behind the towering bushes.She must make herself invisible first before proceeding home. What she wants to avoid is landing in the living room of her husband's mansion and everyone will have a heart attack after seeing her alive.She must not rush things and take everything slowly. She will be going home anyway. She has to do things right. What she needs is a private moment with her husband so she can explain everything to him.Time to leave!She closed her eyes, made herself invisible, then teleported home.A few minutes later she landed inside the mansion, particularly in the master bedroom she shared with her husband.Thankfully, no one was inside the room when she landed. She quickly locked the door from the inside and looked at herself in the mirror.Fantastic, she can't see herself in the mirror.Perfect!Now she's confident to leave the bedroom
