***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
***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
