“This place looks rather deserted,” Dawn said as Byran drove on the long and lonely road.This place was quite far from the city and no one seemed to be in sight. This was some village-like area.It was dark anyways, Bryan and Dawn looked around and so did Ashley.Ashley asked, “where exactly is that ruin?”Bryan said, “I have never come to this place before. But according to the legend this is supposed to be the place where the albios valley once was.Ashley stared out the window and saw the woods, the lonely and deserted road, and the mountain.Dawn spoke, “this entire place has negative energy, and I am not surprised as well, this place is like some huge cemetery.”Bryan sighed as he kept on driving, and then Ashley said, “where do you think the temple can be?”The two thought before Ashley closed her eyes and thought, “the smell of the stones… let me try that. We just need ruins right.”Dawn spoke, “ah… yes you can smell the ruins right? “Ashley nodded “yes, let me give it a try
“Welcome Alpha, welcome.” The man said.Ashley looked at him with a cold face and stern eyes and then she looked at Aaron, who was lying unconscious on the floor in the middle of a circle.She used her senses to hear his heartbeat before she looked back at the man and said, “Are you that true blood vampire?”The man smirked and said, “yes, I am the name is Alastair Nox.”Ashley scoffed, “so you are that same vampire from two thousand years ago” most vampires live for five hundred years or maximum of one thousand years.The majority of the vampires willingly choose to end their lives or go to eternal sleep after that amount of time, because they get tired of life and it would be time to start a new life.But Alastair chose to live longer, live till his people were free again.Alastair gave a nod and said, “that I am.” he then looked at her and said, “it’s so nice to meet another true blood after so many years, and oh you look so much like Rudolf.You are really his successor, thse ster
“The red moon is not over yet.” Bryan said, “we should still be alert.” he instructed all his guards and told them to be alert.“Stay alert and keep your guard up, if you feel anything is wrong, unwanted, or suspicious, you alert me.If you feel a dominating aura, an overwhelming you, run, you come to me and you never try to fight that intimidating presence.” He said, and then he looked at April and said, “You are in charge. I want you to be careful.”April gave a nod and said, “I will take care of everything, don’t worry about anything.”Bryan put his hand over her shoulder and said, “I trust you April, I know that you can handle everything, but this is true blood that we are talking about.”April gave a nod and said, “I am going to come to you when needed, you don’t have to worry about anything.”Suddenly they heard some movement near the gates and Bryan and April both rushed over there.However, Bryan calmed down and became rather curious when he saw Rafael over there.Bryan then s
“How do you feel now?” Amber asked as she gave him a glass of water.Aaron drank the water and said with a sigh, “I am fine actually, everything that happened was really too fast and out of nowhere, so I am still in a daze.”Amber sighed, “Everything is fine now.”Aaron gave her a nod, “where is Bryan?” while Amber took the empty glass of water back from him, and said, “he is outside. I am going to call him for you.”Bryan, who was about to go back to Aaron’s room with his coffee, was stopped by April who said, “Boss the alpha of the gealach Ahren is here.”Bryan kept the coffee mug down and went out himself to see Ashley, himself.“You are here,” he said with a smile.Ashley however had no expression on her face and said, “let’s go to Aaron and finish this chapter today for once and for all.” Bryan gave her a nod before the two walked inside the house.Once they reached Aaron’s room, Bryan saw that Aaron was awake. He couldn’t keep his smile in and ran to him.Bryan hugged his broth
When Ashley came home that day, she saw the light in her mother’s room was openShe slowly walked over there to see if her mother was awake or not.But when she went inside she saw her mother sitting on a chair and bent over the table sleeping.Bundles of files and papers around and a bottle of wine in front of her as well which was half empty.An open laptop and her hand was still holding a pen.Ashley sighed as she slowly shut the laptop and then took the pen from her hand and then gently carried her mother to bed and then gently made her lie down and slowly covered her up with a sheet.She then gently sat down beside her and sighed.She just sat beside her mother for some time before she heard her mother mumble something in her sleep.“Don’t go… please don’t go… Michael please don’t leave me…. I… I miss you so much.”Michael was her father’s name and suddenly Ashley’s eyes were filled with tears as she heard her mother calling for her father and knowing that he would never come ba
Ashley had closed herself in her room and had stopped talking to everyone one.She was not her usual bubbly and easy going self, she didn’t laugh, she didn’t interact much and she didn’t eat much, she sat in her room whole day and only came out when it was needed.She drowned herself in work and kept on working and working.She also tok over her mother’s work and had started to work and lok after the company as well.Getting more and more used to the work and learning more about it.Ava and the others had noticed her change in beahvior and one day Ava asked, “is everything alright dear?”Currently Ava and Ashley were sitting in Ava’s office.Ava was wearing an office top with a office skirt and her hairs were tied up in a bun.While Ashley was wearing a black shirt and over it a black coat and black pants, she also wore boots with high heels, her hairs were elegantly styled with a middle partition.Ashley slowly stopped whatever she was doing before she looked up at Ava and asked her,
Bryan felt nothing.But Ashely felt everything.The pain was excruciating, way to painful, she was drowning in agony, and felt like her heart was burning literally burning while being squeezed tightly in a fist.She felt her soul in pain, every part of her body was in pain, her forehead was covered in sweat as she looked down on the floor and kept her hand over her chest.It was brutal and agonizing, she felt like she was going to die.She took a step back and stumbled back.“Ashley!” Bryan moved forward and raised his hand, to catch her but she slapped his hand away and glared at him, “you are free now Bryan, you are…” she stopped speaking abruptly since she felt pain.It was too much for her to bear.But she still pressed her lips and took a deep breathe and looked at Bryan again,her voice was shaky and weak as she said, “you are free now, since the mate bond is over, you are no longer going to feel anything for me.”Bryan’s was staring at her continuously, tears leaked from his eye
When Ashley woke up the next time, she felt like her whole body was burning.She was still in a lot of pain; it was tough to move her body or even keep her eyes open.Her face was red and so were her eyes.She then looked around and saw that this was not her room, but she didn’t even have the power to sit up.She felt so weak right now.She then heard the door open and then the sounds of footsteps were heard.She looked around and saw that Bryan was coming towards her with a tub of water and a towel.He kept the things that he had bought on the table beside the bed and then looked at Ashley who was staring back at him.He said, “you are in my house, no one knows about this place so don’t worry no one knows about anything, but maybe you can tell about yourself to Rafael or your mother, or tell them that you are going to be away for some time.”Ashley looked away and closed her eyes again.While Bryan went the towel and gently wiped her face before she asked, “you don’t have to do all t
