Charlotte’s pov
I 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 about 100 poems that I have suspected were written by her because of the penmanship.
But because the topics were always different and weren’t related to one another it never made sense.
And now that I am looking at it from a point of view of this whole reincarnation it might make sense.
Every poem is based on the lives she lived every time when she was reincarnated.
Obviously somehow she might have picked up on a few things and left clues.
In one of the poems, she left behind there was a riddle behind the paper.
The riddle’s answer was coordinates that led me directly to this building which is why I am here.
But one thing is certain, I don’t know if I can trust the Vampire King.
And even if I can someone like him will draw a lot of attention my way which is what I don’t want.
But if he is also here and is looking for something then what?
Was he simply just lying?
But why would he lie?
I have made it clear that I am not Scarlet, and I can’t be in anyway the love of his life.
I have no interest in completing a love story that I have no idea about.
Maybe I am the reincarnation of Scarlet, but at the end of the day I am Charlotte Bishop.
I am my father’s daughter, I stopped pacing around because it doesn’t matter anyway.
It doesn’t matter that the Vampire King is in the apartment next to mine and is looking for something that I am looking for.
I don’t even know what it is that I am supposed to find but I know that I need to find it.
I feel it, the overwhelming edge that it’s something that I really need to see.
I looked around at the many boxes of all the things we have collected in the years.
My father did say that some of the poems.
Judging from the paper they were written on and the language.
We tried to predict when they could have been written and tried to create a timeline.
But it never really made sense since we thought it was a spirit.
I looked at each box again and they were still in that order.
Now that I have that little pearl of wisdom I realized how sad this girl’s life has been.
I wonder really, what is it that she did that was so bad that she was cursed like this?
In most of her poems, or in most of her many lives she was constantly cursing her fate.
And I think that in most of them she died very young as we look for her obituaries.
I honestly wonder what sin she could have committed.
The blood poem isn’t something that I could really make sense of.
I think the poem of the blood mark explains why she was cursed, but I also think there is more to it.
But one story at a time.
I bet somehow in her many lives she must have found an answer somehow before she was killed.
Somehow she must have found a way to get rid of this curse or at least an explanation.
Now my soul mission is to find out all I can about her past lives and maybe that will awaken something.
Since I am her and she is me then it means that all the memories of her past lives are also mine.
All I need to do right now is continue digging into her past lives and follow any clue that I can find.
Maybe somehow one of the many lives I have led will help me regain all my memories.
And then I will be able to get rid of this blood mark curse and live my life.
I slowly opened my eyes when I heard the door of my apartment open.
“I am back” Alexa said, and her eyes landed on me, and she seemed concerned.
“Ever since you met the Vampire King and that Alpha Prince you have been working yourself to the bone. What’s wrong?” she asked me, and I just shrugged.
“I have just grown impatient right now; I really need answers and I am tired of waiting for them” I replied, and she nodded.
“And you know right? the sooner we find answers about my curse and the solution then the sooner we will find answers for your thing” I said, and she smiled.
“Answers about my life can wait, your life is what matters right now.
Like literally if you don’t find answers you might get killed by a mob of angry witches” she said, and I nodded.
“Yeah, I am actually really amazing aren’t I?
I haven’t thought about it, but I have somehow managed to escape thousands of witches trying to kill me” I said with my head held high.
“That you have done, but you also need to wash the dishes. Its your day today” she replied, and I groaned.
I got up and washed the dishes while Alexa started cooking and I looked at her and smiled a bit.
I developed my love for cooking from my parents at a very young age.
We would just cook together as a family and help one another.
My father and David really used it as a son father bond which was always very cute.
It’s sad, I know that I have been separated from everything I know but I feel sad at times.
My little brother was also separated from our father whom he adored more than anything.
He had to grow up without a father figure which is probably the hardest thing for a boy.
I know for certain that growing up without a mother figure was really hard for me.
Both our lives were turned upside down in just one day.
The next day I woke up early to open the restaurant since Alexa was the one to close up.
I got a text from her telling me that she forgot to tell me about the new recruit who will start soon.
It would be great to have an extra set of hands considering how hard It was to find one.
Its actually really strange that it was this hard for us to find a waiter.
The economy we live in sucks, so I know for a fact that a lot of people are looking for jobs.
Then how was it that everyone who applied somehow cancelled coming to the interview?
There was a knock on the backdoor that employees use every time they come in.
I unlocked the door and looked at the guy confused;
I can’t forget this face at all.
The face does stand out because he is handsome but what stood out the most was the grey eyes.
“What are you doing here?” I asked him and he smiled.
“Logan reporting for duty ma’am” he said, and I looked at him confused. What?
“What do you mean reporting for duty? Are you the new recruit?” I asked him and he nodded.
Werewolves tend to be very obsessive.
So it was surprising when he just let me go just like that.
I guess I was wrong, he didn’t let me go just like that because here he is.
I don’t believe in coincidences no matter how much they might have occurred.
There is no way that somehow.
After several people we had interviews confirmed with just cancelled for no reason.
Somehow, the one person who lends the job is the guy who believes I am his soulmate.
And I am not stupid, but I also know that suddenly buying a useless building.
And then renovating an apartment in the middle of the night so you can move in the next day.
Come on, I dare you to tell me that these are all coincidences?
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
Logan’s povA love story huh? Its sucks to have a mate who has been reincarnated almost every single century.How many man did she fall in love with?Isn’t it enough that I have to fight for her with the Vampire King?I have to fight for her love with the man who has been waiting for her for centuries.“Brett Ryder, who is he?” I asked Maya who looked at me with curiosity.“He was a rouge werewolf; Reene and he fell in love while trying to stop the supernatural war that was happening at the time” She said, and Charlotte frowned.“What? If my name back then was Reene then how did you recognise the name Scarlet?” Charlotte asked her.“Before you were killed, you remembered a few things but there wasn’t enough time to get to the bottom of things.You remembered your name and was slowly remembering some things” she said and then got up and took out an envelope.Charlotte took it and opened there and written in a clean handwriting.“The answers are in the past,” she looked at me and sighed
