“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
“Yeah, something like that,” Bryan said.Aaron looked at him and said, “and you knew about it as well, yet you didn’t tell me.”Bryan closed his eyes and sighed, “Yeah, I knew that from before, I knew that you needed the moonstone, and not just that somehow Ashley’s father and even Dawn’s father found out about you.And they wanted to kill you, so to stop them the vampires, along with Victor hatched a plan to kill them both and I was involved in that plan as well.When Ashley’s pack was attacked I was there, when Dawn’s father was killed I was there.I didn’t attack anyone directly I just stood there as a standby, as a hidden weapon to handle everything or to step in, in case Ashley or Dawn steps out.But that was not needed. Ashley that time was not that smart and Dawn was not present at the scene so we were able to kill their fathers.And Ashley and Dawn found that out.In the beginning, when I found out about Ashley when I had met her, I had not thought that I was going to be her m
Aaron was somewhat angry when he came back to the house.He knew that no one was really at fault and so he had no idea who to be mad at.People like Victor were dead and there was no one to vent his anger, except for this vampire of course.When he reached his house, he walked inside and saw that Amber was sitting at the dining table doing some work, she was totally focused and engrossed in her work.Aaron stopped and slowly walked towards her.He came near her from behind and saw what she was doing, “what are you doing?”His sudden appearance startled her and she turned back to look at him, “gosh you scared me, Aaron.”Aaron smiled and asked, “sorry for that, but anyways what are you doing?”Amber looked back at her work and said, “well… Ashely and mom both had approached me with some work.They want me to take over some of the worlds and shares but I flat out refused, I said that I don’t want to do anything with the company and I don’t want any part of it.Ashley said nothing after
Bryan said nothing, his face had no expression and his eyes were cold as well.He understood Ashley’s anger and her hatred, so he didn’t even try to persuade her.And he himself hated those vampires to the core for what they have done.Ashley slowly got up and tried to get up, Bryan quickly grabbed her hand and said, “What are you doing?”Ashley looked at him and said, “I should go back now, I feel much better now.”Bryan looked at her with worry and said, “no you are not Ashley, your face looks pale and your eyes look tired… you… you are not well…”Ashley looked at him, and both of their eyes were locked before she said, “do you even know what it’s like for a werewolf to reject or be rejected by their mate Bryan?Rejecting a mate means rejecting a part of your soul, many werewolves die, or some lose their wolf and thus become crippled.Some go corrupt and become insane, some become rogue and some die.” Ashley closed her eyes and said, “I will never be okay again, Bryan. I have reject
"Oh god I am so tired." Bryan said as he laid down on the bed. Ashley came who was right beside him came near him. She was wearing a lingerie before she put her legs around him and sat on him and said, "so are you tired for me as well?" Bryan laughed before he turned their position and hovered over her, "never darling, I can never be tired for you." He said as he touched her thigh and slid his hands above gently touching Ashley's gentle skin. Ashley wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him down. Bryan kissed her, and she kissed him back., but Bryan then broke the kiss before he said, "you are not wearing underwear?" Ashley smiled and said, "I just wanted to be ready for you." Bryan smirked before he got up and said, "I want to try something this time" He said and then fetched a blindfold and Ashley smiled, "wow I gues this is going to be interesting." She said and Bryan covered her eyes with the blindfold before he went out to get something and when he came back to the
"Ladies and Gentlemen, Bryan Shaw as the leader of the council announce that the vampires are once again the part of the council."People started clapping once Bryan said that, "And I would now request the new leader of the council to come forward and take his place."Jayden walked to the stage and shook hands with Bryan before Bryan gave him a ring that indicated that the vampires were now once again part of the council.Bryan smiled and said, "we are very happy to have the vampire's back""Oh I am sure you are and rest assured I will make sure that you are going to love us."Bryan smiled and said, "I am looking forward to that."Bryan then said, "I would also like to make another announcement today, from this onwards, the council will have two keepers, these two keepers will work only for me.Will take orders only from and will bow only for me, these keepers will make sure that the rules of the council are being followed and the laws of the council are being implemented.I would now
Lucien and Aiyanna looked at him, Lucien spoke, "wow... you really think that this is a good idea? you really think that I will join you?"Bryan gave a nod and said, "yes, I think that you should join us, the council actually does need you, it needs a lot of refining and purification , and we need more powerful members like you, who keep the law and order in check,Perhaps I can give you the title of, keepers of the council. What do you say?" Bryan said with a goofy smile.Lucien spoke, "this is not the matter of joke, Bryan. ""Of course it's not and I am not joking at all, I am being very serious Lucien, the council is the best place for you and Aiyanna.I am not saying that you should do what I am saying, I am not ordering you I am just giving you a suggestion. There are a lot of things that you can do.Join the pack, coven, or Den, or the council, or you can be a free spirit and not be bound to anyone and work how you and for whoever you want.Or you can live a normal life as well
."Things have changed so much." Lucien said as he finally lied on a warm bed.Aiyanna laughed and said, "you bet, when I first woke up I was baffled by everything, apparently while we were asleep, a lot of new things have came into existence, like this thing called electricity and then internet.Mobiles, so many."Lucien laughed, "ah, yeah, I have seen Bryan using that thing, and the clothing style has changed so much as well.""I know, it's good." Aiyanna said, "we are really very behind, we need to learn a lot of things you know.""Sure we do." Lucien said."Let's go down, everyone has made a lot of food for us, we also have to discuss a lot of things on the dinner table."Lucien sighed, "I am tired.""I know,you will be dead tired, how the fuck are you even holding on? When I had woken up I was mostly asleep for a lot of days.""I also need sleep, a lot of it actually, but those days in the cell I had mostly slept."Aiyanna gave him a nod before they went downstairs where everyone
After a few days of staying in the captivity one day Bryan finally approached Lucien in his cell. "Well hello there." Bryan said as he came inside the cell. Lucien was just lying on the ground staring up at the cieling. Bryan sighed as he looked around and said, "oh god , you know you could have stayed at the better room that I was offering you, why this place?" Lucien said, "Well this place feels close to him." Bryan sighed and said, "anyway so what have you decided?" Lucien looked at him and said, "have you really forgiven me? For making you go corrupt?" Bryan shrugged, "you haven't really officially apologised to me." Lucien got up from his place and came in front of Bryan before he said, "I am sorry, for doing what I did back then." Bryan smiled, "It's alright." Lucien added, "I didn't plan to kill you actually, after waking up two thousand years later, I had spent sometime in that space and you were the first person to approach me, it was nice talking to you that time."
A "You want some tea?" Amber asked Aaron, he just gave her a smile before he shook his head.Amber looked down and came to sit by his side, "if you are so worried about him then why don't you go and see him?"Aaron sighed and shook his head, "I just have no idea what should I say to him when I meet him, what should I say to console him."Amber just sat down beside him, "perhaps telling him that his existence matter that his life matters that he matters."Aaron looked at her and sighed, "maybe I should and maybe I should not, there used to be a time when Lucien I , Aiyanna and Bearie we all used to be so close like a family.We used to live in a small hut and did all the things together, at the start everything was very hard for Lucien.But then he slowly learned.Under Aiyanna's guidance, he learned many things, he also learned many things from the villagers. They all truly loved him.I and Bearie did to, we cared about him a lot and maybe I still do."Aaron spoke, Amber grabbed onto
Dawn and the others looked at him before she said, "what are you saying, you can now live a comfortable life, have a family and live like a normal person.People are not going to disregard you anymore and everyone will be by your side.You can have people who are going to fight for you and stand by your side. Are you just going to let it slide by and go?Lucien you are getting a chance that no one really gets every time, you had a chance back then when you first met Aiyanna, when you met Bryan, when you go your powers back and even now you have a chance.If you think that you are a minster or whatever then tell my why in the world you would get so many chances! you are sick if you are going to reject it!"Lucien sighed and said, "how can you even trust someone like me aren't you afraid that I might do something evil gain.""No we are not." Dawn said, "because we are stronger than, way stronger than you and can beat the shit out of you if you did something funny, so why are you afraid
Lucien blinked as he was unable to comprehend what all these people were actually saying, he was sure that they have gone mad."Nice joke." he said, "but it's not funny.""It's not a joke." Aaron said as he looked at him and sighed, "we are damn serious."Lucien scoffed as he said, "are you nut or what huh? thus is what happens when kids are given the right to run such huge responsibilities, don't you all know the atrocities that I have done?The people that I have killed, I made your dearest Aiyanna suffer; I made you suffer Zion... I...""We know." Ashley said, and Lucien looked at her, "we know everything you did, and we know why... "Bryan spoke as well, "the council is really despicable body, I swear. The amount of blood, crime and corruption that we have on our hands is just baffling.Now that I am the leader I know how much corrupted and hollow is the council and I hate, I honeslty feel disgusted.But Council also needs to exist, we can say that council is a necessary evil. If
Nostalgia was all Lucien felt right now.Sitting on the cold floor, in the dark cell with not a single ray of light staring at nothing just nothing.Waiting to be killed or to be tortured just like the old times while the others outside were enjoying his defeat, probably having drinks and making plans of ways how to torture him.Lucien's very first memory of his life was when he was alone in the dark cell was made to crawl like a god and eat food that was thrown at the ground just like a dog by his mouth.There was so many memories in his mind when he was beaten to death every day, when he was burned hafl to death, made to eat alive bugs.Sometimes sexually assaulted by other objects it used to be painful, very painful and those memories still haunt him, they just wouldn't go away.Those people who were the part of the council, the leaders, the Law makers, the supreme in power, did all those things and who should he have gone to ask for help to seek justice?God.He prayed to god day
