Alaric*Kicking Moana’s thoughts away, I read about the IPOs of the clients.‘If my son or daughter takes over the company, then by that time my company will be already a century old.’ I thought and mentally slapped myself into thinking about random things again.I didn’t count the time once I was fully invested in my work. I learned from my human assistant that everyone’s asses were on fire after back-to-back meetings."Boss, were you on leave because of your wedding or honeymoon?" Hardy, my assistant asked."Excuse me?""I… I was asking just to update your information in the office profile." He responded quickly."I learned that you brought your girlfriend to the office and acted like the mysterious president in front of her." I pulled his leg so that this topic would change on its own."Si.. sir.." He stuttered. "Don’t kick me out of the company. I was just trying to woo her so that she could say yes to the marriage. I’m one of the best employees in the company; you can ask your g
Alaric*"So many humans!" Moana hissed the moment I teleported ourselves a little away from the open restaurant where we were supposed to eat. The streets where we arrived were full of humans, as this food market was famous for opening at night.How did I learn about this place?Well, thanks to Liara. She often takes away a lot of varieties of food from there. She was the one who told me that Moana loved the taste of this restaurant."Remember, you’ve already drunk two bottles of blood before coming here." I reminded her. "Now, take a deep breath and release. Repeat it until you calm down." I added, holding her hand. Her eyes were closed while I used my mind to manipulate people’s minds. I wouldn’t mind compensating for the monetary loss that everyone would face, but what I couldn’t compensate for was anyone’s life. If any of them were injured, then Moana might not be able to control herself."Done." Moana opened her eyes and found everyone leaving there. "Is the place closed already
Alaric*"Seriously?" She pouted. "Is Alaric your real name? I’ve learned that vampires are given a new name at the time of their birth, similar to werewolves. We have a human name, and our wolf has another name.""Well, that’s right. I was given ‘Louis’ as my vampire name and as my new identity. But I always introduced myself as Alaric, so later on everyone started calling me Alaric instead of Louis.""And wasn’t that a problem for your creator? Because you kept using the name that you used to use in the human world?""Not exactly. Because Alaric is my middle name and..." Immediately, I realized what my girl was trying to do. I glared at her for trying to take information from me about my name by involving me in a conversation."So, Alaric is your middle name, huh?" I didn’t say anything because she had already learned that part. "I’ve also read that the creator of the vampires wiped the memories of their human lives." She said."Hmm. That’s true. But that depends on elder to elder.
Moana*"Pain." I watched Sean standing in front of me normally. Nothing happened to him at all. "This is not working," I said, looking at Alaric."Until and unless you think about hurting someone, your power won’t work," Alaric said. From the moment I woke up after sleeping peacefully for five hours I was regretting, "Why did I even wake up? I wanted to sleep again, holding him in my arms.Well, I could manage even if he would stay beside me because that was what he was doing when I woke up. He was busy with his laptop."The source of your power is hatred, anger, envy, and all other negative sources," Alaric explained. I nodded my head and tried my powers on Sean again."Hey, I have got an idea. I’ve seen this in movies where the hero or heroine can’t control themselves from saving their partner from danger. How about I attack you, Elder Alaric, and you are willing to take that attack?""No!" I shouted, cutting in between. This wasn’t a movie, and it wasn’t fun either."Let’s try thi
Moana*"I believe that this time, you might recall our fight over this picture, but trust me, it’s not what it looks like." He said this, to which I rolled my eyes, crossing my arms around my chest. As much as I was pissed at him, I wanted to hear him out.I wondered why.Maybe because even though I wanted to listen, what I was thinking wasn’t true. "Here, look at me." He spoke, holding my chin and making me look at him. "I didn’t remove her picture because I wanted to do this in front of you. Here, see, I've got your pictures too."If my glare could burn him alive, he would have been dead by now. If the situation had been different, I would have laughed at his expression because he looked really scared, even though I hadn’t opened my mouth yet.I watched him replace his ex-wife’s photo with mine in front of me and then keep her picture in the water on the table. As much as I wanted him to burn down that picture, flush it down the toilet, and tear it. I knew that wouldn’t be right; a
Moana*"I’m sure that I didn’t mean that in reality," I whispered, thinking very hard about the rejection. I didn’t remember anything. The last memory that Lenora showed me was that I was furious at Alaric. Could it be possible that, in anger, I would have rejected him?I didn’t remember much about then, but I learned the same thing tonight, and I was pissed at him again, but I didn’t want to reject him.‘I’m insecure, and I don’t want him to love me as his ex-wife. That’s it.’Why the hell would I ever think of rejecting my mate over another woman who was not even alive? The Moon Goddess paired us to be together, which meant he was given this vampire life for me and only for me."And I’m sure that I haven’t rejected him either. I might be impulsive, but rejecting my mate is something that I can never do. Hell, I can’t see someone else hurting him, so I doubt I can hurt him in the worst way possible." I said it confidently."You were going to marry Alpha Nathan." She pointed it out.
Alaric*"Where were you?" Moana fired her first question the moment I appeared in her room.She was the one who didn’t want me around her."I told you indirectly that I would be at Beasty’s place.""For this long?" She questioned. I looked at the time, and I realised that I had been with him for just 45 minutes."Did you miss me? And I watched a flying teddy bear fly towards my face. I could have dodged the attack, but I let it hit my face."Miss you? Not at all. By the way, what is in the lunch box?" She asked and snatched it at the same time, like a little child. She opened the zip of the bag and frowned."I’ve specially made this for you," I said proudly, and in the next second, I wanted to take it back when she took out chocolate bars. "Except that." I quickly corrected myself, thinking Eleazer might have kept it with the pudding, but I went out of my way when she took an apple out of the bag.And then orange.And the worst was yet to come—a note that she read out loud."A small
Alaric*"I don’t believe you. All her qualities make her perfect. There is no way you can stop an angel like her instead of a rogue like me.""Why are you comparing yourself with her?""Because I’m not like her. And if I’m not like her, then tell me one good quality that you fell in love with.""You’re strong and independent. You don’t need someone to take care of you. You don’t show it, but you care for your people. I don’t remember the name of the girl who had an accident because of which a couple of your teammates died, but you silently kept looking after her father every night to make sure he was taking care of himself. You don’t cry; you make people cry. You’re a badass tigress who is always ready to rip off her enemies' heads. You don’t sugarcoat things and are straightforward. You don’t like showing your vulnerable state." I wanted to speak more, but she placed her finger on my lips."I still don’t believe you."Pushing her finger, I spoke, "The way you’re blushing and the way

Alaric*"I promise, I won’t leave," I repeated when I tried to make Louis sleep. I swore not to repeat the mistake that I made before. To be honest, I didn’t know it could affect Louis to this extent. Maybe because I've never stayed with him before.I caressed his head when he gave a soft smile before closing his eyes. It was clear that he was tired by looking into his eyes, but the boy was not ready to sleep with a fear that I might leave. I smiled, recalling the previous conversation between us.Before, I could have said no and would have become a villain in my son’s eyes. Moana ended up threatening me in front of Louis, and it looked like Louis knew about his mother’s temper, so he dared not bring up that topic again because he thought his mother might hit me in case I agreed to fulfill his other wish.I looked at the other side of the bed. Hope was sleeping peacefully there.For now, they were both in my bedroom, which I had planned to share with Moana. I smiled again, thinking t
Alaric*Throughout the party, Moana didn’t talk to me, or I should rephrase it by saying that I didn’t approach her to talk with her. Instead, I talked with other people in the packs and coven; I knew almost 97% of them, so nothing much had changed.I talked with Stephanie to know how she had been handling the coven along with Theodore, but I was surprised to learn that it was Moana who had been handling everything.In fact, she shifted to the coven after the birth of the twins. My lips twitched in amusement at that fact. She didn’t need me beside her to rule over everyone. I was so proud of her.When I thought that I had already fallen in love with Moana, she gave me one more reason to fall for her again. I had only one dead heart. I wondered how many times I would fall for Moana.I didn’t ask much about Hope with her, not when she was in my arms and listening to everything. I wouldn’t be surprised if she ended up innocently reporting everything to her mother.I also learned that Mo
Alaric*They were mine.I could tell that without any proof.Fuck, twins!!Could I be happier than this? I couldn’t believe the change in the table. A couple of moments before, I was gloomy with the thought that I had lost Moana to some jerk, idiot, and coward.Hold on!I turned my head towards Theodore to kick that bastard after realizing that he was directing those insults at me."My name is Louis James Stark." That was my boy’s reply. A wide smile appeared on my lips when I heard that.Louis is my vampire name.James is my first name.I felt bad judging Moana because of someone’s half-truth. I should have known that she wouldn’t move on, at least not with a man. Or I should be mad at myself; after all, I was an idiot to believe them.My head snapped towards the main door again because of the sound of paper blasters."Welcome, Hope!!" Everyone shouted happily, and my girl hid behind Moana a little more while I stood there like an idiot who had no clue about anything.Why was everyo
Moana*"How do I look?" I asked Stephanie, to which she smiled before speaking."This is the twenty-seventh time you have asked the same question. And you’re looking absolutely gorgeous." She spoke. My heart was beating violently with the thought that I might meet Alaric tonight. Well, that was what Jasmine had told me before she sacrificed her life to give a new life to my Hope. "But do you think that he will come? I mean…"I cut her in half by glaring at her. She didn’t have to ruin my happiness. The main reason behind the party was Hope, so with him or without him, the party must go on. But yes, the reason I was trying my best to look as beautiful as I could was him.And talking about him.I didn’t know where Alaric would go if he wasn't returning to me or his best friend.‘He is here.' That was when Liara's mind linked with mine, bringing a smile to my lips."He is here," I repeated, looking at Stephanie."Finally!" She gave me a genuine smile. I turned my head and looked at my p
Alaric*"Mom, please don’t snatch Dad’s happiness from him just because I’ve seen him this happy after a long time. At the same time, I don’t want my parents to fight or hurt each other. I might not be there between you two, but remember, I will be watching everything, and I won’t forgive you for hurting my dad."I didn’t know how this video landed on my phone because I had recorded it on Vlad’s phone.But then, a few answers could only be answered by Jasmine, and then it wasn’t that important either.I checked my gallery and smiled widely when I found all the pictures on the phone were as they were.Everything was perfect.Now, I couldn’t wait to meet my mate’s fist in my face.*The first place where I teleported myself was her room, and it was all empty. I wondered, Where did her luggage go? I even checked the restroom, but it looked like someone might not have used it for more than a month, or maybe even more. That was when my eyes landed outside. It was dark outside, maybe becau
Alaric*I wondered, Where did Jasmine go? It had been two days since she left me in this bloody cage made of up silver and injected me with a little potion of nightshade, because of which I wouldn’t be able to run away from here by using my power.She had the power to read minds, and I wasn’t aware of that until the night before my escape.It had been a month since I had been staying in the cage like some animal.By the end of every night, she always used to inject me with Nightshade, but this was going to be the second night, and she was missing. I didn’t want to be worried for her after the stunt that she pulled by drugging me, but I just couldn’t help it.I could feel the effect of the nightshade decreasing in my blood, and if I wasn’t wrong, by the end of this night, I would be free to use my powers.As much as I was worried for her, I was praying in my mind to stay out at least for tonight too.Sighing, I sat on the floor, thinking about all these three months. I was totally hon
Moana*I couldn’t understand the reason behind her visit. What could it be? And Why now? Was she here to rub the fact in my face that Alaric was with her now, not me?She better wouldn’t do that, or this time, I would pull her eyes out of her body.I kissed Hope’s cheek before leaving there to meet Carmen. Throughout that time, I had mixed feelings about her arrival.Yes, mixed.I knew she had turned into an evil woman, but at the same time, given that Alaric had loved her for so many years, I believed there must be some good qualities in her. But just because she had some good qualities didn’t mean I had to like her.That was when my eyes landed on her, waiting for me outside the coven. She had covered her face below her eyes with a mask. I couldn’t help but smirk at the art that I left on her face.The coven was shielded by Caroline’s spell, so until and unless anyone broke it from the inside, it wouldn’t break.Though a couple of people warned me, I stepped out of the coven."So,
Moana*I looked at the sky. It was midnight already. One more day without him. It had already been three months without him. I wondered how I was going to manage my whole life.I was pissed at him beyond anything for all those fake promises that he made to me. I wondered why he even did that when he didn’t intend to keep it.Not just did he save his ex, but he also disappeared with her.Why? Because he thought that I was the reason behind his pup’s death.A part of me was thankful that he disappeared instead of showing off in front of me with Jasmine or getting hurt, because I would have killed him for sure.After his departure, I concluded that maybe he decided to stay by my side just because I was pregnant.Well, could you blame me for these negative thoughts?‘An idle mind is the devil's workshop. I couldn’t function properly for a couple of days after he left, even though I had put a strong face in front of everyone. If not for Mom being pregnant, it would have been really diffic
