Logan’s pov
“I followed her like you said in the mind link, she is definitely very good at running.
It was hard for me to finally get to her” Dean my friend said.
“thank you” I said as I looked at the photo he took of my mate entering a restaurant.
“what happened? How did you find her so easily?” he asked me, and I just smiled.
“she found me actually, and there is more to this than that” I said, and he looked at me.
“the girl she stays with owns the restaurant, its like your mate doesn’t exist” he then added.
“I guess I was right to suspect that she is on the run. I couldn’t ask the Vampire King the entire story, but I will find it” I said, and he nodded.
“what’s the plan? You said that she wanted nothing to do with you” he said, and I just shrugged.
“get closer to her, she is a witch, so the mate bond doesn’t have that much pull on her. I need to form some kind of a bond for it to” I replied.
“but what if she runs off again? She has been on the run for so long for whatever reason” he said, and I know he has a lot of questions.
Honestly I also have a lot of questions, but I didn’t get the answers.
“she is looking for a waiter though, you could be one to get closer to her” Dean suggested.
“she won’t hire me; she will probably hire anyone that isn’t me” I said, and he nodded.
Unless no one else shows up, from what Dean told me she really needs the extra hands.
Her restaurant has been so busy that they need extra people to work there.
“make sure you pay off everyone so they don’t go to the interview, she will have no choice but to hire me” I said, and he smiled.
“that isn’t stalkish behaviour at all” he said and then walked out while I just sat there.
I admit it a little stalkish behaviour, but I don’t see myself with much of a choice.
She shut me out before even giving me a chance.
We got ready and Dean was true to his word and paid off anyone who had a job interview with them.
None of them ended up going because we paid them off and now I will do this job that pays minimum wage just to get closer to my mate.
The things we do for love, I dressed a little casually for my job interview.
“good afternoon, I am Logan, and I am here for the waiter interview” I said to the girl with red hair.
She looked at me and frowned,
“are you sure? You don’t look like someone who could be a waiter” she said, and I shrugged.
“I have been disowned, so to teach me a lesson I need to live like a normal person. so please I need this job” I said, and she nodded.
“you are hired, not that I have a choice because you are the only person that showed. Lets sign the contract right away” she said, and I nodded.
I then signed the contract;
I am guessing that my mate isn’t here and left everything to the little girl.
“come on, can you start now? I will introduce you to everyone” she said, and I nodded as she introduced me to everyone.
“I wanted to give you washing dishes, but you have big muscles and a handsome face. You would be wasted washing dishes” she said bluntly.
“this is your apron, please don’t fuck things up. I don’t have time to clean up your mess” she said and then went to the office.
“these girls are awfully blunt, but they are really kind if you ask me” the chef said with a smile.
“yes, they are very reasonable and at times I think very weird. But you will get used to them” the waitress said.
“she isn’t wrong, you are handsome” another waitress said looking at me with a smile.
“are you taken?” she asked again, and I nodded.
“yes, there is someone who has stolen my heart. It belongs to her completely” I said, and she looked at me and frowned. “
the good ones are always taken” she said and then walked off.
I started my job hoping that my mate would show up, but she didn’t at all, not even once.
I guess I should happy that she wasn’t here because I got hired for that reason.
I don’t think she would have hired me; she would have just done the work herself.
She strikes me as someone who is really stubborn and don’t want people’s help.
Its hard to help such people, because they will push you away.
The job wasn’t terrible, being a werewolf helped with the whole standing and walking around.
The next day I woke up early in the morning and got ready for my shift.
“I never thought I would see this day. An Alpha Prince working as a waiter, you will have a beautiful love story to tell your kids” Dean said.
“I need to help her first, but yes, our love story will be written in the history books” I said which made his smile.
“I need to get going, I will be back to see how you doing after some time. I can’t just leave my mate for so long” Dean explained.
“go ahead, I will deal with everything here on my end” I said to him and walked him to his car.
Dean is truly a great friend; I know he wont tell anyone anything.
I know that my secret is safe with him no matter what.
We grew up together, fought side by side and I trust him with my life.
That is why I can confidently tell him everything about my mate because I know my family won’t find out.
If my father or brother find out that somehow that girl is entangled with the Vampire King then things might be a little complicated.
My brother would try his best to get to my mate and somehow use her against the Vampire King.
Especially if he knew that he has been looking for her for centuries and how much she obviously means to him.
Obviously also to keep me in check, if rumours came out that my mate is a wanted criminal things wouldn’t be good for me.
I know she is not a wanted criminal, but my brother would make it look like that.
He is my brother and I know him better than anyone, his desires will always come first.
My father fears the Vampire King and would order me to give up on my mate so not to upset him.
It wouldn’t be a big deal since I can get a second chance mate which is what I don’t want.
I want Charlotte, the girl I met on that rooftop that fateful night.
I hope that today I get to see her no matter what.
How will she react when she sees me?
Charlotte’s povI am going to find it first.I have been staying in this building for months hoping that something would lead me to what I am looking for.I opened the apartment and I kept pacing around hoping that I would find something.I don’t know how but I do know that somehow the witch left clues behind.A few years ago, I just thought that I was possessed by an evil spirit or something.And that in order to get her out of my body I needed to find answers.Honestly, it’s a theory that my father and I have been operating on for years.But what the vampire King was talking about actually made sense a lot even if I didn’t want to admit it.I believe that somehow I am the reincarnation of that witch.I believe her name is Scarlet.This means that now I can actually try and piece everything together.I never got the answer because I always got pieces of a puzzle that never really made sense.From what I picked up she is really into poetry as a way to express herself.I have collected
Charlotte’s pov“Well then, welcome Logan” I said, and he looked at me confused.“Just like that? You made it clear that day that you wanted nothing to do with me” he said, and I shrugged.“I meant romantically; I am okay with you working here. it’s a professional relationship” I said with a smile, and he looked at me.Living in the world we live in has obviously given him trust issues.Hell, I would ask you to walk all around the world and I guarantee that you wouldn’t find a single supernatural being who doesn’t have trust issues.We inherit them from our parents and it’s a survival tool for us.I can tell that he doesn’t trust me, and he is right not to do so.I have been on the run for 8 years; I have lost 8 years of my life looking for answers.I have one solid lead and it might just be the one thing I need to crack open this pandora box.And I wont let anyone screw it up, whether it’s the love of my life or my soul mateThey can all go to hell for all I care because nothing matt
Sebastian’s povI heard as she was leaving and as I was about to stand up Logan came in front of me.“She is going to look for something and it sounded important” he said, and I looked at him confused.Why is he telling me this? He does know that I am his competition right?I mean the fact that he went as far as getting a job near her suggests that just like me he won’t stop at anything.“I am waiting for the part where it concerns me” I said, and he smiled a little.“Its your building and I can’t just come and go. So, I am telling you in hopes that you will allow me to get in” he said, and I looked at him.She found what she has been looking for all this time?I have heard that a few witches have been looking for something there for centuries as well.You see witches can sense magic, so they sensed some magic coming from the building.Ever since then even if they found the source none of them could get it no matter how hard they tried.But if Scarlet is the one that hid whatever they
Charlotte’s povWhat?I thought this would give me the answers to my questions, but I was wrong.Instead, it just gave me even more questions and another heart I don’t feel like breaking.I looked at the two men who were with me right now.Sebastian, he obviously understands what is happening because he seemed, so heart broken.He has been waiting for Scarlet for centuries and now to find out that she fell in love with someone else.Hell, she fell so madly in love with him that she tied her fate to his so they could be together.it’s a slap in the face, one would say that its almost like death by a thousand cuts the more you look at it.I cant be responsible for another heart, and I have no interest In pursuing a love story in this life.Well, if I am Scarlet then it’s not a problem, I will just try and find love in my next life.“Lets get out of here” I said, and Logan seemed confused.“What happened? What is this link you spoke about?” Logan asked and I looked at Sebastian.“Its wha
Charlotte’s pov “What? He just spoke right? you heard him right? he hasn’t said a word Is over a decade and he spoke” Mary said with her smile. And then her eyes landed on me, and I could tell what she thinking without having to hear her say it. She always told us stories about how powerful of a seer her husband was back in his prime. Its her way of telling me that I should listen to him and stay here to dig into the past. “Goodbye Mary” I said and then walked away with Alexa behind me. “Don’t tell me that we are leaving even after everything we just heard” she said and shrugged. “We heard what we had already knew, the answers are in the past. So, we look for texts and books, myths and legends written about her. We do what we have been doing all this time, we research” I answered, and she rolled her eyes. “You know what I mean” she said, and I just shrugged. “I have no idea; we are leaving unless you want to stay behind. You don’t need to follow me if you don’t want, you ca
Sebastian’s povI slowly opened my eyes, and I felt my heart break.I know this spell, and the fact that she did the same thing again broke my heart.How can she do this to me?If I wasn’t sure that she was my Scarlet then I am sure now.The day she died; the last day I saw my Scarlet she used this spell on me.Put a portion in my food and then used on me later on.How can someone break my heart over and over again? Ihave been letting her break my heart over and over again.And the funny part is if she walked through that door I would smile and welcome her with open arms.The last time she used this spell I never saw her again;history tends to have a tendency of repeating itself.I got up and I caught his scent the moment he got out of the elevator and when he knocked on my door.I opened the door, and he was standing looking at me and he seemed just as broken.“She used a spell on us didn’t she? Which cant be a good thing,” he said, and I nodded.The door next door opened, and the
Charlotte’s povI had to go back, no matter how stubborn I am I couldn’t ignore the signs.A man who has been paralyzed and hasn’t said a word in years spoke up.He told me something that I needed to hear but didn’t want to hear.I have never really been one to look at the past, well I mean my past specifically.I like history, as long as it doesn’t involve me one bit.Can you blame me?If I look at the past then I would be reminded of the look on my mother’s face.If I looked at the past then I would remember the crowd of the people I once called family running after me to kill me.If I look at the past then all I can see is the darkness my life became.This is why I never wanted to look at the past, I know the past of this life.&nb
Charlotte’s pov“You’ve got to be kidding me, are all those boxes things we need to look into?” Alexa asked as we were entering Sebastian’s apartment.Him and Logan were already seated with a box in front of them.I looked around his clean and luxuries living room that now had about 10 boxes on the floor.“Yes, this was all I could find. I don’t remember all the details about everything” Sebastian answered.His eyes landed on me, and I looked anywhere but him or Logan.These two guys a few hours ago just confessed their undying love for me.I am their first love from what they told me and also their last.I started being on the run when I was 16 years old, so no one has ever told me they loved me.Not like someone loving me as a woman, sometimes I even forgot that I was one.Their presence in my life reminded me of that.Sebastian’s kiss awoke a desire in me I didn’t know I had.While Logan made me yearn for comfort that I didn’t even know I needed.“Thank you so many guys for doing t
