Helena’s POV

All my life I thought that I was destined to live and die by myself. My mother does not love me or so I thought , but it turns out that she loved me the way that she knew how. I could have not found this if not for Zachary Oliver who turned my boring, sin-eater life into a full three hundred and sixty throttle mode.

And yet, here I am.

Happily married to the man that my brother, Maddox had bitten. So, he was not a mystery. He was under the influence of the Goddess Persephone, who was in return--under the manipulation of my husband’s very own grandfather.

We both have dysfunctional families but we both share the same goals--to maintain our happy family.

I have kids that always remind me to keep my feet on the ground and to always love one another. I have completely abandoned my life as a high end Bulgarian high end bachelorette for a life of simplicity and endless laundry and and I believe that I am already qualified to compete in the national rapping competition.

    Helena’s POVIf you are a native of Bulgaria, then you could have probably heard of our family name. Ours is one of the oldest and noblest that ever lived in the country. After the first world war, my ancestors felt the need to anglicise our surname because of a family scandal. I am Helena Battenberg and I am three hundred years old. Three hundred years old is equivalent to a teenager in the human world. I am still very young, in this case, I kid you not. One thing about us, is that we do not age, right after we hit the maturity age--and that is eighteen years old, we slowly stop disintegrating until the next fifty years. Like botox on steroids. Bettenberg was before the family scandal. here is a little back story, My uncle. Thedeus Battenberg went on a killing spree in a little village. Killing at least thirteen people. I personally do not know what has gotten into him, but from what I was told, it was the root cause of all the succeeding alterations in the family. My mother told

    Zachary’s POVI did not know how I reached home.Myabe a magic carpet brought me here. I made a joke out of myself. I was bad at telling jokes. But when I opened my eyes, I can tell that I was back on my rented cottage. I reached for my phone, which by habit, I know was on the bedside table. The time was ten in the morning. Weird. I have no recollection whatsoever of what happened last night. I am pretty certain that I have not consumed any alcoholic beverages while I was on my way here. The idea that someone could have drugged me sounded plausible.It was not uncommon to be roofied even back home. I bolted from the bed and checked my luggage, it was still locked and was not even opened since last night to see if i still have my belongings. “Hmm, must be jet lag.” I convinced myself. Now that the whole place was flooded by natural light, I could see now that the place was indeed a steal, whoever decorated this place was severely talented.

    Helena’s POVLike any siblings that roamed the Earth, take Cain and Abel for an example--there will always be sibling rivalry and the parents have their favorites no matter how much they try to deny it. My mother’s favorite was Maddox. I really do not mind, as long as I have full access to the family wealth. They can team up and I still do not care. I am my father’s favorite and when he passed on , I felt indifferent, alone. Sometimes I think Persephone visits me in my dreams.“Where the hell is Maddox?” Solandra roared in search for her favorite child.“I do not know, and while you look for him, I am gonna go out in a while. It is a bit cloudy. “I did not hear any protests from my mother. I am no longer surprised, I have lived three hundred years and I have not received a single strand of concern or worry from her, even if I blatantly announced that I would go out in broad daylight. I will take the car, park in the in-parking lot and go to a cafe or a mall. Whatever I fancy.I Chan

    Helena rushed to the parking lot and drove as fast as she could. She almost crashed into a flower vendor because she needed to go home. The Duchess needed to know what she had seen. It would flip her and witnessing her mother flip because of an imbecile who disrespects the decree she so valued among the other decrees she had imposed to keep their race alive was almost exhilirating for her. Solandra will exhaust everything under her command to find the identity of the culprit. No one dares to insult her by disobeying her.She paused for a while when she saw on her rear view mirror the look of dismay and defeat of the vendor she had almost ran over. She know that look. The look of disappointment. Her foot on the gas pedal wanted to go ahead and forget what she was looking at, but her head says otherwise. She grabbed her purse and disembarked her car.“I am sorry, I was just in a hurry.” She apologized at the woman.“I know.” The vendor said. From this proximity, Helena can tell that sh

But she did a Cinderella on him, the only difference was that Cinderella left her glass slippers, she did not. Before he knew it, she was gone, she came in hot and left hot too.“Well, at least you made a friend.” Ken was laughing after he recounted the story to his brother for the fifth time today. “She was really pretty.” “No photos, not sure she was, bro.”“Just trus

There was Poseidon and Hades and Freya.When Persephone saw her husband free, she was furious. ” Who let you out?”Hades took a few steps and touched a half creature and it quickly turned into a heap of dust.
