Sebastian’s pov
I got out of my apartment and found the old woman next door standing at her door.
“You do know that she wont be safe here for long right?” she asked me.
She reminds me of someone I knew back in the ages.
Back then people couldn’t tolerate seers during their time for this reason only.
They always act like they know everything which can be really misleading.
And I will be honest, I hate how they know things that I don’t know.
And the most annoying thing about them is their code in life and their so called ethics and morals.
Seers never work for someone else; they live their life and give people warnings.
Usually they are in riddles, I think it’s because they don’t understand them either.
I looked at her, “why wont she be safe?” I asked her and she just smiled.
“She isn’t safe here because you are here, there are people on your side who want her dead” she replied.
People on my side who?
The one person I can think of at this moment is Rose Watkins.
She has always been obsessed with me, even back when Scarlet was still alive.
Her obsession turned into something more dangerous, and I could tell as well.
I have been rejecting her for centuries, running after a woman who seems to be running in the opposite direction.
“Someone from my side? Do you know who?” I asked her and she shook her head.
“Well from what I gathered its someone near, I even see her blood on their hands” she replied.
They have her blood on their hands?
So, what I am hearing is that someone from my side killed her once?
I know that in her first life the person that killed her was her mother.
So, Is it possible someone from my side has also been looking for her all this time?
“I see they have killed her more than once; she isn’t safe with you at all. Fix your house before you try to get her back” she said and went inside.
But who?
Honestly, everyone close to me could be just anybody.
With seers the most annoying part is that their visions aren’t that clear.
Those people could be my parents, its could be all the other enemies I have killed in the process.
It could have been the friends and allies that I trusted who betrayed me.
It could be my younger brother whose whereabouts are unknown so who?
How could I even know who to go after?
Is it possible that maybe its something from the past?
It honestly doesn’t matter because I need to fix my house first like she said.
I cant have her be in danger, if there is an enemy in my own home I will deal with them.
The next door opened, and she stood there looking at me with a smile.
“Shall we get going? And why do you seem like you just saw a ghost?” she asked me, and I shook my head.
“How was your date with Logan?” I asked her and she just shrugged.
“It wasn’t a date, more like an experiment” she said with a big smile.
“It didn’t go as well as he wanted, but I didn’t completely hate it” she added as she came to my side.
She always has been beautiful, now looking at her I could see the differences.
She looks like Scarlet, but her cheeks are thinner than Scarlet’s cheeks.
She always had chubby cheeks because she always loved food that one.
This girl, I want to protect her with my life.
And if there is an enemy in my house they probably know a few things that I don’t.
And it would be better for me to come out of the woodwork before people start getting suspicious.
I have been trying to live under the radar but if I stay there for too long everyone will start looking for me.
Mark had already told me that Rose has called a couple of times asking about me.
That girl is a psycho, and she isn’t someone I can trust at all.
If she hears that I have found the woman I have been looking for she will make a fuss.
“What happened? You seem lost in thoughts” she said, and I nodded.
“The kid next door said something that got me thinking about some things” I said, and she looked at me confused.
“The kid?” she asked me, and I nodded then realized why she was confused.
I look like someone who is in their early 30s, so people tend to forget my age.
But I have lived for so long that people that woman’s age are nothing but kids to me.
So, I tend to talk about them as kids, or even call them that.
Shen then smiled when she realized, “I tend to forget that you are older than my ancestors” she said with a giggle.
That sound has always been music to my ears, and I couldn’t help but smile.
“Please don’t tell me that we are going to ride horses since it is what you and Scarlet did” she said after some time.
“No, we wont be doing that and I sort of guessed what you would have say” I said, and she looked at me.
“And what did you guess?” she asked me with a little pout.
“something along the lines of ‘I am not Scarlet, and I never will be here’” I said, and she chuckled.
“That’s exactly what I told Logan, how did you know?” she asked and how she was laughing.
Maybe it was because I tried imitating her voice which sounded terrible I know.
“I want to tell you from my perspective how you and I met. That’s all I want to do today” I said, and she frowned.
“You made me get up at 5am just for a little talk?” she asked me.
“Not only that but there is something I think you will like as well” I said parking my car.
We were outside the city a little on a little cliff and she looked around.
“You aren’t going to push me off the cliff are you?” she asked me making me smile.
“Maybe in a few days I might be tempted to” I said while taking out the picnic basket.
We sat down and she smiled looking at the sun rising.
She always told me how much she loved sunsets and sunrises, how she would love them in every life of hers.
I never really understood why she loved all this but after she explained I understood.
She said that the sunrises represent a new beginning, the warmth of the sun getting ready to hug us.
While the sunset represent the end of the day but then also hope.
The hope that tomorrow will be better, that it will hold more memories.
Another thing she loved about them was that they were reliable.
It didn’t matter if the world was slowly burning, the sun would set and the next day it will rise once more.
You can always trust them, plus they look beautiful.
“Do you want to hear it? the full love story of Sebastian and Scarlet?” I asked her.
Sebastian’s pov“We are too close to the Blood Coven; we should get out of here now” Chris said, and I smiled.“You always have been a coward, are you scared of witches?” I asked him looking around the deep forest.The blood coven lives next to one of the biggest forests in this world.I think its mostly so that they could gather herbs from near, but the forest is feared by humans.This forest is where the darkest of creature come to hunt, the home of magic one would say.“I will just wash up and we can leave, my parents are waiting for my feedback” I said and stopped at the waterfall.The waterfall formed a small river and it looked really peaceful here.From the scent I could tell that there were no witches or people an
Sebastian’s povI went to that dangerous forest day in day out.Hoped that we would meet again somehow but I had no such luck on my side.“Why are you even after her? didn’t you hear that she is a dangerous witch?” Chris asked me.“I know, but she had this light in her eyes and I can’t seem to forget her” I answered, and he rolled his eyes.“She is a witch, and you are a vampire. That light in her eyes is her burning your very dead corpse” Chris said spoiling my mood.I cant seem to forget those eyes; it was as if they were piercing through my soul.“She called you a fool” he said after some time, and I just shrugged.“And I am a fool, I want to achieve peace, I speak of peace, but I have no plan to achieve it. I want answers but I don’t even have questions yet” I said, and he sighed.“Fine, I will listen to your peace bullshit” he said with a heavy sigh.“Not you, I honestly don’t care about what you think. I want her to hear my plans for the future” I said and then got up.I went st
Sebastian’s povShe didn’t answer but looked the other way.After some time, she spoke up, “it doesn’t matter what we both felt. You are a vampire, and I am a witch” she said.“Well then, shall I tell you the answers I have?” I asked her and she smiled.“Cant wait to hear about them” she said, and we both sat down.As far away from that tree as possible of course and I started telling her everything.She just sat there and listened; I have never had anyone just listen to me talk.My siblings don’t even know what they feel or what to do with themselves.Ever since we got turned into vampire it is as if we all lost our identities and don’t know who we are now.I do know that my name is Sebastian Thorne but then that is all I know now.Back when I was still human I just wanted to be a normal person who works hard.I would marry a girl who isn’t super pretty but also isn’t ugly and would settle down.But now I have forever waiting for me, from what I have been told forever is a long time.
Charlotte’s pov“I will tell you more on another day” he said, and I nodded.I would like to hear the story some more because I think I might have gotten a clue.When I gave him the poem back then I think he also missed it as well.Hell, back then we hardly got the time to even do anything because of how everyone reacted.“I will be gone for a while” he said when we got in front of my apartment.“Gone? Where are you going?” I asked him and he smiled.“I just need to sort out a few things, I was given a riddle that I need to solve” he said and then kissed my forehead.“Stay safe” he said and then walked away while I just stood there.I know that he was going to the next room but somehow I missed him already.The news of him leaving really saddened me a lot the more I think about it.“You seem deep in thoughts” Alexa said sitting next to me with a huge grin on her face.“So, what have you decided? Which prince charming are you going to choose? The dark and mysterious prince charming, or
Charlotte’s pov“Well father always said that you would grow up into a very beautiful young woman. He lied” the really strange and yet familiar voice said.His voice had changed over time, it could be puberty, but it somehow still sounded the same.“Brother” was the only word that could come out of me looking at thus miracle in front of me.I didn’t know what else to do, because honestly I don’t know whether he is here to kill me or not.But If his face is the last thing I see then I think I would die at peace.It would be as if I saw my father and brother before my death because he looks so much like our father.“Give me a hug and stop crying, you know tears make me uncomfortable” he said, and I chuckled.“But you are crying as well” I said pointing and his eyes that are now filled with tears.I hugged him and we just stayed like that for what seemed like forever.When I let go I realized that there were now two men behind him looking at us with suspicion.“Come on in, all of you” ad
Charlotte’s pov“I will find the answers you need, for now you just need to get away from here. I will try my outmost best to find the new person that is helping them” David said, and I nodded.I completely trust my little brother, being who I am and how I have lived that is a big deal to me.“But where are we going to go?” Alexa asked me and I thought about it.There was one place I know for sure that we can go without any problems.“I know what you are thinking but that’s a terrible idea” Alexa said frowning.“What is a bad idea?” Sebastian asked looking between me and Alexa.“Nothing, we need to start packing so we can go” I said getting up and Alexa remained seated.“Sister no, I refuse to let you go there” she said, and I sighed at this.She has always been head strong and stubborn,“we don’t know what we are dealing with. With this new spell they will be able to find me fast, it’s the only place we can hide safely” I tried to reason with her, but she shook her head.“Where is th
Logan’s povThey got ready and started packing and I also did the same.I know that we are doing all of this to protect her and make sure that she isn’t found.I know that we are just doing this to also buy us some time while we figure out the blood mark curse.But I am so happy, she will be living in my home and will eventually realise something.Joining a pack is like living in Paris, it’s the city of love that you cant even shut it out.I know they will make us stay in the same room and do all these sorts of events to celebrate our union.Even if she is immune to my charms I bet she will see the life she never knew she wanted. A family that would die for her because she might be their future Luna.I finished up and found her saying goodbye to her brother with a big smile.“You have grown into an amazing young man, I bet our father Is really proud of you” she said as they hugged.I glad that she had people on her side like her father who supported her no matter what.When you look
Charlotte’s povWe got out of the car and a whole crowd of people came to welcome us.“Little brother, I see why you went above and beyond for your mate. She is a real beauty, but she is human” a guy said.He does have a resemblance to Logan and his arrogance tells me all I need to know.This is the older brother that Sebastian warned me about.He said that for some reason he didn’t like this guy and saw an evilness in him.Sebastian has been living for centuries and is obviously very knowledgeable and has experienced a lot of things.“Yes she is human, I get she is your mate but why would you settle for a mere human?” this other girl said sizing me up and down.“She is human but none of you have to bitch about it, are you that special because you can grow fur and claws?” Alexa asked.I looked at her telling her to shut up, but she didn’t listen to my quiet pleas.Instead, she looked at Logan, “Why are you just standing there and watching them talk to her like that? Is this what you c
