***DAMIAN***I climbed out of my car and groaned as my arm slightly hit the door. I was still hurt from the confrontation with Javier yesterday. That reminds me. I bent into my car and picked up the bottle of herbs Oliver gave me this morning on my way to work. It would help me heal faster and boost my strength. I would not come to work today, but there were a lot of things to handle and sort out with how the Gala turned out and the secretary of housing and development killing himself on stage. I had to be here today. I slammed the door of the car shut and walked towards the entrance. "Good morning, Mr. Wolve," the security guard at the entrance said and I acknowledged him with a nod as I walked in the door. I looked over my shoulder and raised my eyebrows to look back at the guards. Something felt off, especially with the way they looked at me. I looked up and noticed that people were also staring. I couldn't ponder much on it when I saw Steve hurry towards me. "Did you watch
***DAMIAN***I'll make sure that I get it out of that Vampire in the most gruesome way possible. I looked up to see that I was nearing the Pack mansion."I am going to make him wish that he wasn't the one who survived," I said and slowed down the car, packing before the building of the main pack mansion. I immediately retrieved the car key and opened the door, climbing down and shutting the door. As I walked up to the front porch, the door of the mansion opened and Lorenzo walked out. "I had him taken to the interrogation room," Lorenzo said and I nodded, walking past him into the mansion. I hurriedly walked to the interrogation room and as I got there, the guards at the door regarded me with a nod and opened the door. I walked in immediately and I looked up to see a man chained by the neck and waist to a silver pole. His torso was naked and there was dried blood all over his body, but there were no scars or marks. He must have been injured and tortured, but Vampires heal almost
***DAMIAN***"Unless... Unless...." I stuttered as I thought of the only possible explanation for this. "It's a True Vampire," Lorenzo completed my sentence and I nodded. It had to be a True Vampire. They were the only ones capable of compelling other Vampires. They could even compel Werewolves, but a wolf in a pack had a stronger mental defense and it would only easily work on Rogues. True Vampires are those born by a Vampire mother and father. It was almost impossible for Vampires to procreate. It was easier if it was a Vampire and a human, but one out of a thousand Vampire couples could procreate. Most Vampires out there are those turned by other Vampires, very few of them were half-vampires, but it was rare to find a True Vampire. Bastien and Silas were the two true Vampires I knew, and this has to be a third one. I thought they were supposed to be rare."Who could it be?" Lorenzo asked me and I stared at him, having no answer to that question. I sighed and faced the ground,
***DAMIAN*** FLASHBACK"Kill her," he said and I tried to stop him, but I froze in place as he pulled the trigger, firing a bullet in Lauren's head. He let go of her and I watched in shock as Lauren lifelessly fell to the ground, blood spurting out of her head. I felt the world slow down that instant and I screamed her name loudly. "Laurennnnnnnnnnnnn!" I clenched my fist in anger ready to tear every one of them apart. I raised my head, gritting my teeth, but just as my claws began to extend, the leader cocked his gun and the last thing I heard was a loud gunshot. I slowly opened my eyes and stood up, grunting heavily. I felt a sharp pain in my heart as I saw the blood on the floor. It wasn't just because I had a bullet lodged in my chest, but because I lost my mate, Lauren. I looked around, but I couldn't find her body. Where was she??? I stood up quickly and walked away as fast as I could. I didn't know how long I was unconscious, but cops would be on their way now because
***DAMIAN***The car started and it started moving at a steady speed as it drove towards the estate's exit. The gates of the estate opened as we approached and the car immediately started moving fast, speeding down the neat tarred road out of the estate."Just so I can remind you later, Nigel was never on speaking terms with us so don't be disappointed if he tells his men to throw us out," Lorenzo said and I faced him, rolling my eyes."We still have to try."***The Lusted Fangs Clan was at the other end of the city so it was a long drive and we had been on the road for over 50 minutes. We were lucky that there was no traffic and we would soon be at The Lusted Fangs. While on the road, I wanted to just lean my head on the chair and try to catch a quick nap, but it was just impossible. Every time I closed my eyes, I could feel my hidden memories trying to push through. I didn't want to relieve any of those memories. I couldn't. "We're here," Lorenzo's voice alerted and I looked stra
***DAMIAN***As the doors opened, I expected to see Nigel, but instead, there was a fine-looking middle-aged man sitting on the throne-like chair and holding a goblet of wine...blood? It was a familiar face I didn't expect to see here today. This was probably the reason we were allowed in so quickly. "Silas?!" I exclaimed in surprise and the man sitting on the chair stared at me blankly for a while like he didn't know who I was. I was confused for a while, but he suddenly burst into laughter, pointing his finger at me. "Yes, it's me, Damian," he said with a teasing smile and I nodded. He got me. He had woken up. I didn't know. Silas was stabbed that day with a silver dagger, but because he was a True Vampire, he didn't die. The only way True Vampires could be killed was if you burnt them or stab them with stakes made out of some rare trees, but deadly kill moves like that stab would put them in some kind of long hibernation. I didn't know that he was already awake cause Bastien
***DAMIAN*** I drove my car into the parking space of Nexus Consolidated Headquarters and slowly came to a halt. I climbed down from the car with a briefcase in hand and I shut the door. I was wearing a black suit and a long coat. My black hair was neatly styled to the front and my shoe, a black Aubercy Diamond glistened in the sun. My shoes clomped against the floor as he walked into the main building. I looked around, hoping to see Steve running towards me out of nowhere with some kind of news, but he wasn't anywhere in sight. I walked into an elevator and pressed the button for the top floor. I looked at my wristwatch, I was two minutes late for the board meeting. Immediately, the elevator hissed open, I stepped out onto the executive floor. I looked up and finally saw Steve who I was looking for, he was standing in front of my office with Isabel and Viktor."Good morning, Mr. Wolve, we took a look at all your emails as you said and these are the only things we found," Isabel
***DAMIAN***For a while, I haven't had any visitors in my office and I know how people who were in my office frequently like Steve smelt. So it was my wolf scent warning me of a foreign scent. I stood up and took a look around my office. Somebody has been in my office.I immediately walked out of my office and went straight to the security room. As I got to the security room I open the door and stepped in. "Good evening, Mr. Wolve," Sam greeted and stood up from where he sat. "Sam, can you pull up the security footage near my office door and let me know anyone who has been there between yesterday and today," I said and he nodded. "Yes." He sat down back and began to go through the security footage. I pulled a chair back and sat down while I looked at the computer screen. After a while, Sam stopped and looked at me. "The only people who have been in your office are Steve, Isabel, and Mr. Steele," he said and I sighed. Yeah, they were the only ones I called into my office yes
Evelyn.My eyes shot open all of a sudden and I gasped as I jerked up from my bed. I looked around and saw that I was in my room lying on my bed.I suddenly remembered everything that happens with Damian and my hands instinctively went to my chest. What happened?? I looked at my hands and saw that I had shifted back into my original form. It must have happened after he stabbed me since I was not conscious to keep the face. This was the second time I had been stabbed in the chest in less than a month. Maybe I was lucky to have near immortality, but it still hurt as hell. More importantly, Damian saw me at that church, and worse, I was pretending to be someone else. I'm so fucked right now. My mission here is over. I sighed bitterly. I shook my head, deciding to stop thinking too much and questioning myself until I have to face what happens. I felt so thirsty and hungry right now and I wanted to get something to eat.I climbed down from the bed and as soon as my feets touched the
***STEVE***. As soon as I hurried out of Viktor's house, I took out my key from my pocket and opened the car, climbing in and driving off.I got to my house in ten minutes and I pulled over in the garage before climbing down. I had to freshen up, get dressed and get the files I need in ten minutes.I was walking to my room when I saw a shadow flash in front of me. And it wasn't mine. I stopped walking, feeling I wasn't alone. My mind went to the dream I just had earlier. What if Pedro wanted to get back at me for standing up to him? I saw the second shadow and I quickly turned around only to see a large club swinging at me and hitting my head. I held my head, groaning in pain as my vision became blurry immediately. I looked up and tried to see who it was, but my eyes failed me and I lost consciousness. *I opened my eyes and I shut them immediately as they were hit by the bright sunlight. I was lying back flat on the ground, therefore directly facing the sun so I had to turn a
***VIKTOR***"Steve, is that you?" I asked and the voice of the person who responded caused my heart to skip. Oh fuck! "Papa?" I said softly, my heart beating rapidly. "Yes, it's me, son," he replied, "guess who I ran into today - it's that young man I met at your house the other day.""Don't you dare lay a finger on him!" I bellowed angrily and I heard him chuckle."See? I knew that you care about him. I know when my boy has a special feeling towards someone," he said proudly and laughed. "What do you want??" I asked. "Good. Although, I don't want much, other than seeing you without being chased away like an unwanted piece of shit," Papa replied, "so, if you want to see your precious little wolf, breathing and alive, or with his body parts intact, then you have to come to save him yourself," Papa continued. I knew that it was a trap, but I couldn't just sit around and do nothing. I had to save Steve or Papa will fulfill his threat. "Where is he??" I asked. "So there's this th
***DAMIAN***My phone rang and I reached for it, looking at who was calling. It was the man who I sent to help me monitor the movement of Minerva. Yesterday, I wasn't able to go to the club where she was supposed to be because of the issue with the Rogues. Hoping that he already had info on her movement, I stood up and excused myself."Excuse me." I accepted the call, "Tell me that you have useful information." "Yes, I just got notified that Minerva will be on the move to meet a business partner in the next 30 minutes," he said and I nodded in satisfaction. "Alright. Stay close to the estate gate, we'll meet you there in 10 minutes," I said and ended the call, walking back to the table. "I think we've all come to an agreement now, there's somewhere I need to be," I said quickly. "Alright. Have a nice day," Zon replied and stood up, walking out of the restaurant. Viktor left like he was in a hurry too.I raised my phone again and hurriedly dialed Lorenzo's number. "I just got ca
Viktor.We both walked back to the sitting room and I sat down on a couch next to him. I smiled as I saw him toying with his fingers. I knew he had something on his mind that he wanted to ask, but because of everything I said earlier, he might not want to."You can ask what you want to ask." I smiled and he faced me immediately. I smiled and faced him, "Your special abilities. How do you have them??" He asked quickly and I smiled. I shifted closer to him and put my hand on the back of his head, pulling him closer. "Let me show you." I leaned in towards him and kissed him. I showed him everything I knew about how I was born and we continued talking for the whole day till we both fell asleep. ** As soon as Steve left, I quickly rushed to my room, took off my clothes, and entered the bathroom. Damian would be so annoyed that I am late. I quickly took my bait and got dressed before rushing out of the house and driving off to the restaurant where we were supposed to meet. I was the o
Viktor. I froze as a saw Papa at the door. What was he doing here? How did he find him? What did he want?Just as I saw his face, memories of my childhood and everything I did because of him came flooding back.So many families lost their loved ones, so many clans were destroyed, and so many people had reason to cry because of me. I froze in surprise and I wasn't able to say a word even when Steve confronted him. "He is right, you need to leave," I finally summoned the courage to chase him away and I gulped. Unable to hold back the emotions welling up inside of me, I zoomed away, going into the restroom and resting on the sink. Tears welled up in my eyes and I sit quietly trying to push back the tears. Why??Why was Papa here?? Why did he have to come back into my life??I switch on the top and scooped water into my hands to wash my face but the tears keep streaming down my face. I heard the door open and I knew it was Landon, but I kept my face down, trying to blink back the tea
***STEVE***I slowly opened my eyes as I stirred out of sleep in the middle of the night. I stretched and yawned loudly looking beside me to see Viktor sleeping peacefully. We were both in his room right now. I looked at the led alarm clock on the table beside his bed and saw that it was just 2 am. I was feeling so thirsty so I stood up and slipped into my a sandal lying at the foot of the bed. I walked to the door and slowly opened it so I wouldn't wake Viktor up. I walked out, moving around so I could find the Kitchen since I wasn't familiar with the house.I finally found the kitchen and I found the light switch on the wall, switching the light on. I walked to the fridge and I took out bottled water. As I opened the bottle, I heard a strange sound coming from outside and I stopped moving.I slowly dropped the bottle on the Kitchen slab and quietly walked to the window, and pushed the window blind aside a bit to look outside. I saw flickering lights and footsteps and I quickly
***DAMIAN*** "Wait, but we left Evelyn alone in the pack mansion," Lorenzo said and my heart skipped. Holy shit! I immediately ran back to my car and I didn't even wait for anyone before starting the car and driving away. I pulled the gear, zooming down the road at full speed. How could I be so stupid!! How could I have forgotten about her? She was so vulnerable right and the Rogues could do anything if they got to her first. I looked at the Rear view mirror and saw Lorenzo's car behind me. We finally arrived at the mansion and I pulled up quickly, climbing down from the car and running up to the door. I didn't bother to open the door and I just wanted to push it open, but I got pushed back. I grabbed the doorknob and tried to open the door, but it was closed and I gritted my teeth. Fuck! Lorenzo's car soon pulled over and he climbed out with three other men from the pack. "The door is locked," I said and kicked it in frustration. It was designed to withstand force so the
**DAMIAN***. As I drove to the pack mansion, I looked l left as I passed by the church. It was one month till the Lunar Eclipse and I'll get rid of the Wolf curse. I squeezed my face in dissatisfaction as I noticed there were no guards standing around the church. Where the hell did they go to?? I pulled over by the side of the road and climbed down from my car. I saw there was another car parked in front and I looked at it closely. I didn't recognize it, but it could be anyone's car. I walked to the church quickly and I opened the door slowly. I saw the guard I assigned to coordinate others to watch this place and I sighed in relief. I thought they left this place unguarded.Are you the only one here?" I asked as the guard turned around. He looked curious or surprised to see me here. "I was passing by and I didn't see any other guards outside so I came to check," I said and he still didn't say anything. Why was he acting so weird?? "They suspect an intruder is somewhere around
