***DAMIAN***The car stopped directly in front of the red carpet and I climbed down. I and Steve climbed down while the driver, Blake drove the car away. I looked sideways as I saw press officials trying to get to us from both sides of the red carpet. "Mr. Wolve, can you please tell us what this project is all about?" A reporter asked as I walked down the red carpet towards the building of the Duchester Hall where the gala was being held."Why do you think Nexus Consolidated was picked to collaborate with Hastings Industries out of all the other major companies that were competing for it?" "Do you think this project is beneficial to the public?" I looked at all of them throwing multiple questions at and Steve tried to stop them from bugging me on both sides."You'll get all your answers in the gala. It'll be broadcasted live," I heard someone answer behind me and I looked over my shoulder to see that it was Xavier walking down the red carpet with his entourage of guards."Mr. Wolv
***DAMIAN**I looked around and saw that everyone else was also confused, while Javier was simply grinning. I stared at him and looked up at the podium again. What did he do? "As I said before, I love and cherish my family so much, which is why it pains me so badly that I have to do this," Carson said and all of a sudden, he reached into the inner pocket of his suit and brought something out. It was a fucking knife! Everyone gasped and began to murmur. I stood up immediately and I watched as Carson suddenly slit his throat.Everyone screamed in horrow as blood flowed out of Carson's slit throat and he slowly fell to the ground. I watched as some guards quickly ran to the stage as if they wanted to help him, but all of a sudden, they pulled out guns from their pockets and held it to their heads. What the heck was happening??? I glanced at Javier again and he was looking at them with a wide smile on his face. Everyone was screaming and panicking. They all stood up on their feet a
***EVELYN***I glanced at the tray on the stool and sighed. I was hungry, but that was exactly what I needed. If I don't have any real food, my Vampire side would rely on the blood I drank to keep me strong, and that way, it'll be out of my system faster. I stood up as I thought about finding the kitchen here and returning it. I picked up the tray, but just as I was about to walk out, I changed my mind. I stopped walking and I slowly turned around, staring at my bed as I remembered the prisoner I met yesterday. Bastien.I glanced at my bed, contemplating on if I should do what was on my mind or not. I could get in trouble if anyone finds out that I've been secretly going to the dungeon and talking to a prisoner. He definitely did something terrible to be tied up in that way. There was nothing else I could do right now and that man was making me feel this strange curiosity. I walked to my bed and bent down, grabbing the bed and pulling it away from the trap door. I sighed and I
***EVELYN***Someone was knocking on the door. It could be Damian and he could have a spare key or force it open. "I have to go," I said and I quickly grabbed the tray before running back to the stairs. I pushed the brick and the walls closed back up. I quickly ran up the stairs and I dropped the tray on the bed. I bent down and closed up the trap door.The person knocked on the door the second time and I hurriedly pushed the bed back to its original place. "Coming," I said as I stood up and I ran to the door. I opened the door and just as I had thought, it was Damian.I looked at his hands and I saw him holding a box of Moonshine. I mentioned that I was running out of them already, but I didn't think he would help me get them. I smiled and I opened the door, stepping aside so he could come in. He walked in and he dropped the box on my bed. "Thank you so much," I smiled, but his face didn't even move a bit. He was obviously pissed off about something. What was the deal with him?
***DAMIAN***FLASHBACK I spun across the room as I let go of my dance partner and I grabbed Kiara. She held on to me tightly as she almost lost her balance and she smiled. "Seriously, you didn't have to come here with me," she said for the hundredth time today. "That psycho ex of yours is still out there, it's dangerous for you to be outside the pack," I said and spun her around, catching her. "You're just so stubborn and Dad always indulges you so the least I can do is be here to watch over you," I added and she rolled her eyes. "You didn't have to bring along a whole squad with you though," she said, referring to the men I brought along from the pack, waiting outside in the car. It was a ball night at her school and she wanted to be here. It was a school for supernatural kids and everyone here was either a Werewolf, a Mage, or a Vampire."Maxim is currently at the hospital fighting for his life cause he tried protecting you from that psycho," I replied and started moving a bit
***EVELYN***"Son of a bitch" I muttered to myself and stood up, trying to open the door, but it was locked. I hit my palm on the door, gritting my teeth in anger. I stopped hitting the door and I rested my back on the door. What have I done? I should never have spoken to Bastien not to talk of even feeding him or pulling the arrows out of his heart.This is all my fault. I helped a prisoner Escape. I was just thinking about how I could get Damian to trust me and tell me about the MoonGem, but now, he would never trust me.I have to fix this. I have to find a way to fix my mistake. The door was locked so how do I get out of here?I looked down as I had an idea. A stood up from the bed and I bent down pulling the bed away from the trapdoor. I open the trapdoor and climbed down the stairs. As I got to the foot of the stairs, I pushed the brick and the walls divided. I walked into the dungeon and stopped as I reached where Bastien had been tied up before. I saw the chains that had b
***DAMIAN***I never thought that I would have to confront Bastien again! I thought that I would have him locked up and suffer for the rest of his life! He was responsible for the death of the two most important women in my life. I was furious and I was holding myself from going crazy. It was all Evelyn's fault and I was trying to be calm with her because I was afraid I'd overreact. "There." Evelyn pointed at a house on the left side of the road. Why would he be hiding around in a house? Why not head straight for the border and find a way to leave?? I glanced at Lorenzo and he shrugged before walking past me towards the house. I followed him to the house and as we got close, I began to pick up the smell of Vampire blood. "You are right." "I can smell his vampire blood," I confirmed. Bastien was a True Vampire, a Vampire born by two Vampire parents. It was almost impossible for Vampires to procreate but when two Vampires do, the result is a powerful Vampire who is excessively stro
***EVELYN***As soon as the doctor dismissed me, I walked out of the ward and saw Damian talking to the doctor. I felt a little bit weak and drained of energy. According to the doctor, I lost a lot of blood. I thought about what happened and wondered how different things might have turned out if I had the Wolf weakness. I would be dead now. Would Bastien have killed me just like that?? I tried not to think about what Damian response was when Bastien confronted him about me. Neither of us knew each other before we got married and I'm here just to steal the MoonGem. And I've been able to fix the problem I created. I think. "Where is Bastien?" I asked, and Damian glanced up at me, but he didn't show any reaction and he turned around to leave. I glanced at Lorenzo and he shrugged. "He has been locked back up," Lorenzo replied. We soon got to the mansion and I walked into the building, closing the door. "How did the dagger not kill you?" Dante asked and he continued walking. The
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
