For five hundred years we have walked the earth watching humans breathe and die. We've lived, ceased to exist, came back to live, ran, and hid, but today we return to our former town, Arcadia Falls. We presume that these humans must have forgotten what we are, vampires. We hope that they have moved on realizing that vampires do not exist in this world and are just a myth. We are back. The O'Connor brothers have returned. *Lynette was scurrying home, she held her handbag and the loose straps were hanging over her shoulder. She had heard lots of stories about humans that went missing and were found dead in the woods with strange bite marks some days later. The whole of Arcadia Falls knew about vampires, but they were lied to, the majority believes that it was an animal attack and they go about living their normal lives. She looked above her head, her gaze caught the twinkling stars that hung across the skies and the crescent moon that illuminated the dark clouds. She managed to run pas
The sun was setting, humans were walking to their various destinations. Aiden was driving home with the cake he bought from the bakery shop. He drove into the O'Connor premises, stationing the SUV at the garage before carrying the cake into the house carefully. As he stepped into the living room, he was welcomed by Colby. “Hmm. Looks tasty.” Colby said, salivating, he wanted to eat all of it. Aiden strolled into the kitchen before settling the white-colored creamy cake on the dining table. Beckham had arranged the living room and it was large enough to contain about fifty people. Elijah was downtown, compelling humans to grace the party. They had promised that they wouldn't hurt anyone. Aiden did an excellent job by providing blood bags for himself and his siblings. He knew how to take care of his family and this was what he wanted, a new beginning. “There is something you need to know.” Colby panicked, as much as he wanted to tell him about Marissa, he recognized the consequences an
“Let me get this straight, Marissa. You have been a huntress since you arrived at Arcadia Falls and you have decided to kill my family.” Aiden gauged. “I will give that a hard pass.” Elijah sniggered as they surrounded her. She threw glances at them, tightening her grip on the two daggers she held. She was waiting for one of them to make a move. Colby sped toward her, seizing her throat and nudging her to the wall, she groaned and the daggers she held dropped. “Forget you ever met us. Leave Arcadia Falls and never return.” Colby compelled her. She snickered before slipping away from him. “Do you think that compulsion can work on me? I pray Amaya finds out what you are soon enough.” Marissa hinted. “Don't you dare try to ruin my dear brother's happiness?” Aiden declared. “Vampires. The only thing you creatures think of is to feed on us. I will forever hate you and I will never stop killing your kind.” Marissa threatened. “I will end you before you get the chance.” Elijah giggled b
The O'Connor brothers were good at observing table manners, there weren't side whispers or clanging of the ceramics against the wooden dining table as they dined together. Lynette was sitting next to Aiden, she wasn't used to the dead silence, but she was elated because they were enjoying the meal. She could read the look on their faces and she was catching several glances from Darius who was sitting opposite Aiden. She strived not to smile because she knew that he was flirting with her. There was one thing she noticed about these five brothers, they were looking pale, but still, they were vibrant and full of energy. She didn't want to conclude quickly, perhaps, it was their nature. “Thank you.” Colby said as he stood up looking at Lynette before he waddled toward the sink, he dropped the plate there and exited the dining room. “He is such a cute little brother.” Lynette smiled while fiddling with her spoon. Aiden smiled as he looked at her. Darius frowned, but he didn't want her to
Amaya eyed Darius from the counter, he was getting along so well with those strangers, Colby was eavesdropping though he wasn't interested in their conversation. He didn't want him to tell any of those vampires about the mansion or how strong they were.“Hey boy.” Amaya snapped her fingers and Colby regained himself. “I'm so sorry.” He apologized knowing that he might have offended her. “Sure. I need to take an order.” Amaya informed him. Colby searched for the blonde lady, but he couldn't find her anymore. It was her lucky day because he would have compelled her not to set foot in the grill until she died. He sipped from the empty soda can, attracting unwanted attention. His mind slowly drifted to his past life, the early two thousand, the moments he had with his brothers. How they killed people when they first turned. How they lost the people they cared about. It has been a ride for them. He hoped that things would be different for him with Amaya Grayson even though he had never fa
Bradville.15th March 1876. Aiden was enthused. He pictured how tonight would look like at the town's party. They moved into Bradville some years ago and he had adjusted to the new environment as a vampire. He had found someone that he had feelings for and he pledged to himself that he would ask her out during the town's party. He was in front of the dressing mirror, wearing his tie. He wore a black suit with black shoes. He smiled after he finished dressing up, he looked at his wristwatch, it was 7:30 pm, and he had to leave before he was overdue for the party. He picked up the exact ring that he gave to Lynette and looked at it, he grinned. The ring was created by a warlock to prevent vampires from compelling humans. Any human who wore it was safe from compulsion. He picked up his black walking stick and headed out of the mansion. His brothers had left earlier, but he wanted to be at his best because she promised him that she would come to the party no matter what her parents said.
Aiden's hands were placed on the dining table. Elijah returned home with Colby the previous night, they were about to decide whether to trust the warlock who was willing to aid them. It was a radiant day, the sun was glinting across the skies, burnishing tree tops, striking the earth's surface, and setting off an admirable glow. Aiden and Elijah were sitting opposite each other. The windows were open, and the velvet curtains were tied to an end. The centerpiece bowl was sitting in the middle of the dining table, it was filled with various fruits; red and green apples, bananas, and strawberries. “This note was written by our mother, Gwendolyn, in 1976 and our names were included, she must have hidden it here because she knew that one day we would search for her.” Elijah explained hoping that they would find their mother sooner.“She left clues.” Aiden guessed keeping his attention on the topic at hand. “Yes. I and Darius would be looking for a man named Zachary Taylor while you and Bec
Darius held Esmeralda on her neck with his elbow as he pushed her to a tree. She scratched her hands on the rough barks as she struggled to breathe before glaring at him. Behind Elijah was Gerald. “We could make this work nice and slow or I could torture you until you give me the information I need.” Darius faked a side smile while Elijah who was behind him scratched his chin. “Could you take it easy? You're hurting her.” Elijah beckoned, he wanted to get all the information he needed at once, but he wanted to do it without hurting anyone. Darius narrowed his eyes toward Elijah while Esmeralda struggled to be set free. “You are the reason why Vincenzo is being tortured.” Esmeralda snarled. “I couldn't have found a better way to execute him.” Darius returned his attention to Esmeralda. “The Vampire King is going to come for you.” Esmeralda looked into his eyes with hate. “Hmm. Does it matter?” Darius peeled into her eyes and she steadied her breathing. “Answer our questions trut
Looking outside the window, Darius imagined what Aiden and Lynette would be doing now ‘trying to make babies.’ It was heartbreaking, but he knew that Lynette would find a way. He sniggered, folding his arms and seeping from the glass of red wine which he was holding. He would never stop caring about her even though she was married to his brother. He would always protect her and save her from danger no matter the cost. Hearing footsteps behind him, he turned and met Nina who looked at him hopefully. “You should be going home. It's almost eight o'clock.” “I just wanted to check up on you.” Nina uttered as she halted. “Um, I saw your father at the wedding.” “Colby sent the invitation cards to us after you invited me personally.” Nina huffed while Darius put the glass on the wooden desk, ambling toward her. He kissed her when they were close enough, he was doing this just to get rid of every sentiment he had for Lynette. Trying to fall in love. Striving to put his urges under control.
Colby was the best man and Amaya was the maid of honor. They had agreed on their separate roles and the wedding was about to commence. The color of the day was black, white, and gold. All men would be dressed in suits and women would be dressed in different types of golden gowns with specific designs. Darius was the priest and he just wished that things would turn around. He wished he was the one getting married to Lynette, but he couldn't. Even if he tried to ruin the wedding, he wouldn't escape the wrath of his mother and brothers, not after he had gotten rid of Aurelius. They wouldn't let him destroy Aiden's wedding. Aiden was struggling to put his tie in place when the door swung open, he turned and met Darius who waddled in. He wore the best happy face expression. It was just for some hours and he would go back to being a dejected and abhorrent vampire. “The guests have arrived,” Darius announced as he motioned toward him, helping him to put his tie in place. “You look amazing.”
Driving through the streets, Aiden swerved to the right, he was going to pick up his wedding suit from Arcadia's Mall. Elijah had his gaze fixed on the windshield, he enjoyed every minute that he spent with his mother and he also wished that Aurelius would appear with Diana someday. They had concluded with Darius that they wouldn't talk about Aurelius again and the Graysons should go ahead and get rid of him forever. As they stationed the car at the parking lot, Aiden and Elijah alighted from the car, striding into the mall. “I think you should wear a black tux.” “Hell yes. I'm going for a black tux. I love black.”“Not as Darius.” Elijah teased as they strode to the men's section after they had taken the elevator which led them to the third floor. “Should we compel the cashier?” Elijah suggested. “Dude. This is my wedding and everything should be genuine.” Aiden halted and looked at him. People were storming in and out of the shopping mall throwing glances and smiling at each other
Misery. Devastation. For the past two years, she had never set her eyes on her elder brother. Not once. Not twice. Not even in her hopeful imagination of having a better life. Living with an abusive father had ruined her life and kept her locked up in her room vulnerable and helpless. Weeping and attempting to put her emotions under control. She breathed heavily as she looked further. Hanging on her shoulder was her black backpack. She wished that she would arrive at Arcadia Falls peacefully and find his brother without stress. As she trudged through the woods, she heard twigs breaking and indistinct cackling. She looked backward and clenched her fists in fear. She hoped that she wouldn't be attacked by a lurker because the five towns knew about Vampires. Bloodthirsty creatures. She increased her pace looking backward as she ran past the trees that lined up in the woods. She bumped into a man and she gasped as she stepped backward. Quivering, she took off. As she ran she tripped and
Another day passed and Lynette didn't make it to work. It's a new day and Aiden made sure she dropped her off at Arcadia Falls library before heading home so he would deal with Adriel's issues. Colby and Tristan had headed to work while Elijah was still spending some time with Gwendolyn who was healing from Darius' wicked words. Darius was spending time with Liam in the wrestling room while Aiden was left to interrogate Landon who was exploring the mansion. “I wonder how we were friends in 1335.” Liam added ducking Darius' straight punch before moving behind him and kicking him on his back. “We just have to live with our mother's story until we get our memories back. I don't even believe her.” Darius declared as he wiped the beads of sweat on his face, clenching his fist and positioning himself for an attack. “I see you hate her, don't you?” “Well, yes. She abandoned us in the past. I'm not the type of person who easily forgives.” Darius maintained as he threw a punch and Liam used
Kissing her, he wrapped her arms around his waist as they stepped toward the bed. Their tongues collided expertly while their heads were filled with nothing but pleasure and unquenchable emotions. They crashed on the bed and it left a soft little squeak as Lynette unzipped her gown and threw off her shoes. He sat up and held her smooth thighs as she removed his jacket and loosened his tie. A moan escaped her lips when he clutched his hand on her thighs and they giggled. “I love you so much.” She could still smell his cologne and she enjoyed the scent that turned every part of her body on. He caressed her until his hands grasped the tip of her boobs and they both smiled. She straddled him and he pressed her tits and he moaned as she felt her erection. She was even becoming slicker and she enjoyed the way Aiden touched every part of her body. He placed his hand back on her waist and lifted her as they rolled over. She could feel his rock-hard DICK in between his trousers and she couldn'
Hanging the balloons on the walls, Colby looked at Tristan who was holding the ladder. They smiled at each other before Colby diverted his attention to the balloons he was fixing on the wall. It was his favorite brother's birthday and he was so delighted even though he hadn't figured out a gift that would suit him he knew that he would get things done before the end of the day. Lynette and Darius had gone to the bakery shop to get a cake while Aiden was stuck in his room, resting and taking in the story that their mother shared the previous night. Colby stepped down from the ladder while Tristan moved it to the basement. Elijah and Liam had moved the couches aside, creating a safe space for the dance floor and the party to take place. Colby rushed toward Aiden's room, knocking and stepping in after he got a solid response. Aiden was facing the wall with a ring in his hands, he looked at it and sighed before turning toward Colby. “Morning.” They told each other simultaneously. “Have y
Present Day“That night, he told me about the holy 12 and he fled when the witch came after him. I guess he died in her hands because I have never set my eyes on him.” Gwendolyn heaved a sigh as she stared at her sons. The clock was ticking. Time was moving. She was happy because they welcomed her graciously. “You just told us how our father became a vampire and how he was murdered by Cataleya Drew. How did we become vampires?” Elijah asked, waiting for the odd story. “I'm so glad because the six of you are here.” “Six?” Elijah wondered. “Yes. Except for Beckham who I haven't seen since I returned. Where did he go?” “He will be here soon. Just tell us how we became vampires.” Darius implied. “This is how you became vampires.” Gwendolyn relaxed in her seat as she braced herself to tell them the truth.15th September 1335Gwendolyn looked outside the window, heaving a sigh of regret. Right in front of her, her husband whom she thought had died years ago fled and never returned home
1st November 1305This was supposed to be a new year's gift to her husband. For the past nine months, she had been carrying a baby in her womb and she prayed that this child would be a boy. She didn't want to disappoint her husband because her first child was a girl. Gwendolyn and some of her maids were trudging toward the infirmary which was built behind the O'Connor mansion. Two women were beside her, holding onto her feeble hands and rubbing her back as she wailed in pain. She had been shrieking and muttering inaudibly since she was in labor, one of the women rushed toward the entrance opening the door and helping the other lady to take Gwendolyn and lie her on the bed. A tall muscular man wearing a black tunic and black trousers strode toward the infirmary which was the cottage at the O'Connor mansion. He stopped by the door and waited patiently to receive the good news that his wife had put to bed and she was alive. He didn't care about the sex, but he hoped it would be a boy. Gro
