***EVELYN***. Kayla intertwined her fingers and bit her lips nervously. She glanced at her handmaiden, Tania with a blank expression and Tania just stared back without saying a word. Her expression was like she knew all that was in Kayla's mind right now. Damn it! Kayla hit the bed with her palms and stood up swiftly. Tania did not need to be told what that action meant, but she said it anyway, "I'm leaving this castle walls today, I want to check out the kingdom today." Kayla hurriedly got into her sandals. "Are you sure about this?" Tania asked even though she knew it wasn't really useful in this situation. Kayla was stubborn and would make sure she did whatever she had made up her mind on. "The King doesn't want you leaving the castle." Tania expressed her disapproval and moved forward to adjust Kayla's hair. At least Kayla was not proud and took Tania as a friend rather than a servant. "He's just being overprotective of me. Moreover, he's away on a meeting." Kayla retorted
***EVELYN***I stood at a distance as Craig who had found the guy Lorenzo made to track down that woman talked to him. "They tracked the woman down to a club, Fhynix," Craig said as he walked back to me and handed me the paper that the man gave him. I didn't know where that was but I could use Google Maps. "Alright, I'll handle it," I said and began to walk away. "No wait, I can help you with this," Craig said, walking after me, and I stopped walking. "Don't worry, I'm going with Aaron," I said and he nodded, but he didn't seem happy. "Really? She's going with that small boy?" I heard Craig say, but his lips weren't moving. Oh. I just read his mind and I didn't mean to which means he has a weak mind. That wasn't any of my business, Damian was missing and needed to be found. "Alright," Craig said and walked away. I went to Aaron's room and knocked on the door. He opened the door and I walked in. He was wearing a headset and holding a drumstick. "Are you busy?" I asked. "Not
***EVELYN***I grabbed my glass of wine and gulped it halfway before dropping it. I took out my credit card and handed it to the bartender who took it and processed the payment. He handed my card back to me with my receipt and Aaron faced me. "I guess it's a dead end here," Aaron said and I stood up, following him. "If they didn't come here, I don't know where else they could have gone," Aaron stated. "No, they were here," I said and Aaron faced me with his eyebrows raised in confusion and inquisitiveness. "Do you know something?" He asked and I nodded, looking over my shoulder a bit at the bartender who was staring at us. "I do," I replied. "The bartender lied. In fact, he specifically knows who Damain is," I said and Aaron looked even more confused. "I read his mind," I explained and Killian stopped walking immediately. "What?!" He exclaimed quietly and I nodded to affirm what I had just said. "Yes, I can read minds and I know he saw Damian here yesterday so if he's lying,
***DAMIAN***"I'm going to make sure that you regret ever laying your hands on me." I gritted my teeth with a threatening glare. "Well, I'm going to call Mr. Javier now and let him know what we have here." "What the hell do you two want??" Lorenzo asked and I sighed on the inside. He shouldn't be asking that question, it would make them believe we are helpless and desperate. "We were just trying to do our business, you were the ones who came to interfere," Roseline replied and I scowled at her. "You came to Pandemonium the other day and you drugged our drinks!" I said and she chuckled as if she found my anger amusing. "It was merely a warning, you didn't have to be so egoistic about it," Roseline said and I knew deep down that she was right. I just couldn't let this warning go. I was angry that they felt I could be threatened. I was angry that someone had the guts to drug people with me when I was there. To sum it up, I was egoistic. "Have you called him yet?" Roseline asked t
***DAMIAN***I looked front and sighed in relief as I saw a door that most likely led out of the building. Suddenly the door opened and I stepped back a bit as Javier walked in. He looked around for a while before spotting me and a wicked smile lit up on his face. "Oh. Won't you look at that?" Javier smiled widely and I quickly signaled Lorenzo with a slight and unnoticeable flick of my finger for him to go back so Javier won't see him. Three other Vampires walked in after Javier and I was guessing they were his guards. "Alpha Damian looking so miserable in my custody," he stated and I clenched my fists tightly. "Just let me go, and we can pretend like none of this ever happened," I said even though I knew that Javier wouldn't let this opportunity go, but I was stalling him so Lorenzo could find another way to get out of here.He slowly climbed back up the stairs and he froze as the stair creaked loudly.Javier's eyes darted in the direction of the stairs, but he couldn't see Lor
Evelyn. The bad feeling I had earlier today when I woke up was back and it felt stronger and stronger each second. I couldn't help but feel scared for Damian. He and Lorenzo were trapped with the enemy right now and anything could happen.What if he was tortured? Or even maimed? Worse, but if they took his life. "Are you okay?" Aaron who was driving us to the location where the phone number was tracked looked sideways and asked. "I can hear your rapid heartbeat," he stated and I simply shook my head. "I'm okay," I replied and he stared at me for a while, looking unconvinced before facing the road. "We are almost there. It's the next street," Aaron informed me and I began to silently tap my foot on the floor of the car, counting the seconds till we would get there. Aaron drifted sharply to the left and the seat belt strapped on me was the only thing that prevented me from hitting my head on the dashboard. The car soon came to a halt and I quickly unbuckled the seat belt, opened
***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
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
