Rima made me sit on the couch and then sat beside me. She was silent for a while. I waited for her waiting for her to start her story. I knew, that whatever she was going to say to convince me, I was not going to believe it."Three months before you were here for the first time, the rumors started to spread that a Vampire, while going jogging, smelled magic blood. We grew up hearing about that amazing blood that could make us powerful." she went on."For years, vampires were searching for it. Many of them had even killed millions of people in search of that. We were so excited when we heard that we finally found it. We could just use a drop of that blood and we could be stronger, faster. The awesome thing was that with just a glass of that blood, we could live without drinking blood for some months or even years. The magic blood had that much magic in it."I looked at her, feeling confused and surprised."Dad told everyone to find that person. Everyone gave their all to find the perso
The next day, early in the morning I went to Gurans's house. I was nervous thinking how would I bring her with me. How would I make her understand everything that was going on. I even prepared for the speech. "See, listen....umm, I.... look...I...wanted to say that....," I started to prepare myself on the way to her house when a guy passed by me giving me that weird look. I felt embarrassed. I mean, I was literally talking to a tree and why wouldn't he give me that look.After that without embarrassing myself further, I went to her house but she was not there. I searched for her in that cafe but she was nowhere to be found. I went to the park and she wasn't even there. Feeling frustrated, I went towards the bridge, thinking about where could she be. I looked around and then I saw her. I stood shocked. Everybody was shouting and yelling at her not to jump. She didn't listen to anyone and jumped into the river. My breathing stopped at that very moment. I couldn't move and then somet
I called him back."Where are you, Amol. I need you here right now," my dad said as soon as he picked up the phone."What's the matter?" I asked him in a curious tone."We found her," he replied and I looked back at Gurans's house and around her house trying to find a vampire."Where?" I asked him but It was more of asking myself about where a vampire could be."She will be here in a few hours," he said and I was about to speak when,"Come here immediately. See you in an hour," he said hanging up the phone and not letting me speak.I looked at Gurans's house and stayed there for like half an hour. When I didn't see any vampires near her house I was convinced that it wasn't her who they have found. Even though I was sure about it I called Rima and asked her about what dad said."It can't be Gurans, Amol 'cause the girl is already with them. Dad just called me," she answered and relief filled me."Ok, I will be there in some time," I said hanging up the call and going back to Dad's pal
I was more than furious but I controlled myself cause showing them anger was of no use. "Why are you trying to show me that you can do anything?" I asked in a very calm tone.My parents looked at him but smiled instantly which made me believe that they were behind this all."So I was right. You both are behind this all," I said."Behind what, son?" My mom questioned."Why are you doing this all when I have already said that when the right time comes I will give it to her," I said with slight pain in my chest."What have we done now?" Dad questioned and I rolled my eyes at him."Why did you send that vampire to hurt Gurans?" I finally asked and they both looked at each other."I know it was you guys," Mom looked down and shook her head. Dad just smiled but didn't bother to speak."Do you think we will attack from behind? If we have to take her away from that house and bring her here we can do it in a heartbeat and we don't need a vampire to do that," "Who knows you were trying to gi
The title means love ( माया )After she left I was miserable. I locked myself up and started to live a miserable life thinking about how much I had hurt her. To avoid regret I told myself that it was all for her. Rima came to live with me so she could help me but I didn't bother to meet her or come out of the room. Gurans's sister would call me and text me which somehow helped me. She would ask me about her sister and tell me if they were talking and stuff. Knowing she was all right made me happy.I was happy when I heard she was coming back but she was not safe here so I told Rima to check if she landed safely. Rima came back with her and she was unconscious. Rima told me Gurans got into an accident and somewhere I was afraid it wasn't an accident. She looked more beautiful to me. It helped when Prarthi came to live with us because Gurans would live in the same room as me.My parents found out about her coming back. They started to call me but I didn't pick up their phone. When Guran
I looked at Amol and he was calm. I wondered what he was thinking.He shook his head "Let them come, Rima. I know, Ratna was planning this for months. Himal was also on her side," he said refusing to move."What are you saying?" I questioned.He looked at me."Remember Himal ?....he wanted to take you out?"I nodded in realization. He had left saying something came up. Amol wanted to take me out after he was gone but I refused."Thankfully, I stopped him from taking you out cause later I found out he was trying to kidnap you," "What?" Himal was trying to kidnap me?He nodded."Yes, last time you were attacked. I found that vampire and killed him. I told the guards to find out who was behind all this. A few days ago I found out it was Ratna. At that time she didn't know anything about you. She tried to kill you out of jealousy."Of course, she had feelings for him."And the twist is that Himal and Ratna are in a relationship. She wanted to marry me so she could become a queen and the
Amol had told me everything about vampires. He taught me everything that I needed to know. He fully trained me in five days and I was more than ready. While training I got to know he was even a good teacher. How can someone be so perfect in everything? "That was quite awesome," I thought when he told me our eyes turn red when we drink blood. I liked it when my eyes turned red. It made me feel more beautiful. He also mentioned to me that when we are hurt or angry our eyes turn black. I couldn't wait to see that. "Are you sure you are ready?" Amol asked me the next day after the final training. "If you want to train for a few more days we can do it," "I am more than ready," "They are dangerous and I don't..." I placed my finger on his lips. "I am not any less than them,""I know but it's your first time so,""You will be there with me so no worries,"He went silent.I slowly held his hand.Amol decided to call Rima before leaving but she didn't answer the call."Why isn't she answeri
We slowly stepped inside but it was all filled with silence. We started to look around and boom that bitch appeared."We got company, love," she said looking behind her. Himal came with a smirk on his face."So, prince and princess are here for another cute, beautiful princess," he said in a mocking tone."What took you so long?" she asked."Where is she?" Amol asked in an angry tone. His eyes started to turn black. He looked so angry."I swear if anything happens to her. I will kill you both," he growled. They started to laugh "Hand her to us and Rima is all yours," said another voice. That voice belonged to Ratna's brother and he had Rima with him. She was in a bad condition, unconscious."Take her inside, Anurodh," she ordered. Amol growled and was about to attack him but I stopped him."Your anger can cost your sister's life. So calm down," she warned as her brother left."We are all alone now, four of us," she smirked."What did you do to her?" I asked."Just starved her for a
I started the engine and then we drove inside the forest towards our home. We were both silent and then she started to look around and gave me a confused look. I knew what was coming. "Where are we going?" She asked. "I told you, to my place,""No, stop the car," she said but I didn't."I said....,""Ok," I cut her off.I stopped and turned to look at her."Where are you taking me inside this forest?" She asked."I told you, to my place," "It's weird," she kept looking around."What do you think I am doing? Kidnapping you?""I changed my mind. I don't wanna go. Take me back," she said and I almost lost my mind.What does she mean by changed her mind?"You know that they are already at my house," "I don't care. I should have listened to Kusma. I.... Just take me back or let me go," she said but I didn't unlock the door."Sorry but I can't let you go," I said starting the engine. She gave me a look but I ignored her. I knew she gonna hate me after this but I didn't care."I am not g
I got out of the car and looked at the palace where many workers were working. One of the guards came to pick my bag but I refused. As I walked inside the palace I forgot everything but my Gurans. I went straight to my room and it was all clean and back to how it used to be. I had told them to focus first on our room so they did as I had told them.I sat on the bed and looked around. I realized I can't live here without her. I got up and walked out. "I need this mansion back to its form in 2 days. I don't care how you do it or how many workers you need," I said and everyone gave me that how we gonna do it in two days look. I walked out of the mansion but Sanskrit stopped me."Amol, where are you going?""You can go back to the palace and help Rima in her work. I will be gone for a few days. Don't try to find me," Without waiting for him to speak, I left.I went towards where Gurans and her friends had gone. It took a day for me to find her and then I kept eye on her for a few days.
She looked at me and then looked at her friends. I waited for her to answer."We came here to trek," the guy came forward."So what are you doing here alone?" Gurans asked me instead of replying to my question.I shrugged "Wanted to be alone," still not taking eyes off her."Alone?" The girl asked. She seemed shocked.I nodded."Alone in this forest?" Gurans asked looking around and I almost laughed looking at her face. I don't know why I wasn't angry. She always did this to me. Whenever she was with me no anger came to me. I was always calm and happy around her. I could not explain how happy I felt having her in front of me. The only thing that hurt was her not recognizing me or say refusing to recognize me."You can join us if you would like," the guy offered but I shook my head."Let me fill this bottle first," Gurans said walking towards the river and started to fill the water in the bottle. She came towards me drinking the water and then smiled at me."It tastes so good," she s
* 15 months later *I was in my office when I heard a knock on the door. It had been almost five months since I somehow managed to control myself and the pain inside me. Twenty-four hours I would be in the office and make myself busy so I don't have to think of her and stop myself from feeling the pain of her leaving me. I looked at the door and it was Rima."Hello," she said and I turned my eyes back to my laptop."Let's eat breakfast together," she walked inside. It was her everyday routine, to wake up and come to annoy me by asking me to eat with her. Rima was now a vampire. She successfully turned again and was annoying like always. She sat on the chair but I ignored her."Come on, please," she almost begged but I acted like she wasn't there."Until when?" She questioned. I wanted to tell her until death came to me but it wasn't going to come cause I was a vampire. People talk about how they wanna go to heaven or how somebody will go to hell for their sins but for me, this lif
Amol's PovWe were happy again. Life turned out to be peaceful and beautiful like Gurans. We were having breakfast when Zar entered. I knew what he came for. "Amol," he said as he entered.We all got up out of respect for him but he showed his hand for us to sit. He sat on a chair in front of me and our new maid, Bindhya came with a plate of food for Zar. She was a vampire and younger than us. Maybe in her late teens. She was very young so I had refused to give her any work but she insisted that she was 18+ and an adult. I wanted to refuse again but Rima asked me to take her in so I did. She was a very good cook. After we were done eating, we sat in the living room. "I know why you are here," I said to Zar before he could speak."The throne can't be left there without the king," Zar said."I know,""Then what are you waiting for?" he asked."I don't want to be the king...." I said and everyone looked at me at once. Gurans slowly placed her hand on mine and squeezed a little. "When my
Gurans's povThe two vampires standing before me were tall. They were wearing a black long coat. One vampire had grey hair while the other had blue. They tied me up and were all ready to draw blood out of my arm. I wanted to stop them so I started to scream and they glared at me."I am hungry," I said."You will be dead in a few hours so it doesn't matter," the vampire with grey hair said.I got scared cause I didn't want to die without seeing Amol. I needed to see him once. I was about to speak when the witches walked in."We want to have the taste of that blood," the witch with the blue necklace said."You can't have a single drop without the permission of the king, Sneha," the blue-haired vampire said."Robin is right," the witch with the blue bracelet said."Stop being so scared, Sakuna. He wouldn't know," Sneha replied.Sneha started walking towards me. The grey-haired vampire stood in front of Sneha. He shook his head asking her to stop. "Come on, Prabhakar. Move out of the wa
Vampire king's pov"Brother," I smiled.Amol seemed shocked at hearing me call Zar my brother. Yes, He was my brother whom I had loved with my everything. But he left me all alone when I needed him the most. *Flash back*Decades ago we lived a very happy life. We were orphans but we had each other. As a big brother, he took care of me and I did the same but one night something happened that changed our life.While I was walking home something strange happened to me. Something came in like thin air and stung me on my neck. At first, I didn't know what had happened to me and then it started to burn me. That's when I ran home screaming Yugal's name. "Yugal, Yugal," I screamed in pain as he came out of the house. He had worry written all over his face."What happened?" he asked me coming towards me but stopped right away when he understood something wrong had happened to me."It... hurts, Yugal. It hurts," I showed him my neck from where blood was coming out."Something came and bit me
Vampire king's PovThe day was here. The day, when I was finally going to have the taste of the magic blood which was on the girl's body whom my son had married.I thought Amol had married her for the blood but I was wrong. He married her to protect her. Not to get the blood for us. I thought he was walking in my footsteps but he wasn't. He chose her instead of us, his parents. I was waiting in Tanahun for my wife, Anima to bring that girl to me. When I saw the car park inside the palace, I smiled. I was more than happy. I was so impressed with my wife who was the mastermind of all our plans. I doubted a little but well she proved me wrong. She never ceased to amaze me.The witches took the girl out of the car and dragged her inside the palace. They took her towards the room where I told them to keep her. I watched her trying to get out of the hold but she couldn't. I laughed a little thinking how pathetic she was. She was the strongest vampire of all and she couldn't even fight my w
Amol took me to the secret room and asked me to sit there. It was in the rooftop where nobody would think of going. The room was in the dark corner side of the house where the store room was."Why?" I questioned him."My mother might come here anytime and I don't want her to see you. She comes almost every day to check," I sadly nodded at him thinking now I have to live alone in this room."Don't worry. I will be here with you too," he said and a smile escaped my lips."Really?" Amol nodded and I pulled him into a hug."Oh, Amol,""How could you even think I would leave you alone," he said.We slept in that room for a few hours. When I woke up Amol was not in the room. I got scared. I was about to get up to leave the room when he walked inside. "Where were you?" I asked and he showed me a tray."Food," he said with a smile. "I would rather want to eat that smile than the food," I said biting my lips lightly and he grinned."Is that so? You want to take this smile away from me?" He
