2021-08-05 11:31:11The next day we all spent time together but, there was something definitely off with Lucinda.
I continued to feel someone's presence lurking in the trees, and I knew that it would not be long before I found out who it was. Judging by Lucinda's reactions, the way her eyes kept on darting into the trees and denying that something was bothering her. She knew exactly what might be going on, and I did not know how to make her tell me without using my mental abilities. I knew though if she saw through that she would hate me. I was left waiting for her to open up but, with Lucinda, that could be never. As night fell, the girls started to prepare to retire into their tents to fall asleep. I, however, do not necessarily need sleep, it is during this time that I leave Lucinda and Molly to hunt. I decide to take a drive out of the area, I have already realized by the pungent odor of wet dog that there is a Werewolf clan nearby. I wondered all day why Lucinda was off belieRelated chapters
The Beloved Chapter 24
I drove all night trying to calm the beast within me, after what just happened, and all of the shocking truths that have transpired over the last few weeks, I was not sure if Luci was the true person for me anymore. I loved her so much yet, how can I trust her? I had been getting the suspicion awhile ago that she was keeping secrets from me, and as time went on I started to understand they revolved around Molly. I understood part of her reasoning however, I could not agree with it. I knew she was still brokenhearted after Molly's father abandoned them, and I thought that if I ever met the man I would annihilate the person for acting as such. Now, meeting him, I understood it, he had no idea he was a father, meaning he would have found it hard to leave if he had. How could Lucinda have been that heartless? If it were me, I would want to know as well, it was his right as a parent! She revealed herself to be so selfish that she would completely isolate Molly even from any family at all

We searched for days never finding Lucinda. Rydon had looked briefly since it is his daughter's mother. After hours of searching, he received a mindlink and needed to return to his pack. This situation was difficult enough, he would only look because she was a human and his loyalties were to protect his pack and human life but, he had no feelings for her anymore except now possibly hate for the shocking truths that unraveled during this entire camping trip. I promised him that I would arrange for Molly to associate with him one more time before we leave after we find Lucinda, and Molly agreed to spend time with him sometime in the future.I had never expected to meet Lucinda's former lover, I had never expected him to be a werewolf, let alone an Alpha. I was still infuriated with her about the previous night with the fight between the three of us. This revelation really showed her true colors to me, and I questioned whether she ever loved me if she could treat her own d

I remember that was one of the longest days of my existence. Molly and I endured the long drive back to Liverpool in grief-stricken silence. Neither of us talks about what happened. The tension and bitter emotions in the car were suffocating. Somehow, what had started as a family camping trip turned into tragedy. I racked my brain trying to understand what the Fuck went wrong! We stopped at a service station to fill up on gas. I made my way inside to buy some chocolate for Molly, she cried her eyes dry as she slept during the drive. I know how it is to lose a parent, nothing will except time dulls the pain. I am grateful to be here with her, no one should suffer it alone.In the following weeks, I had informed her parents about the accident. I had met her father once at Molly's Graduation. I only wish life did not go this way. Lucinda made bad choices by excluding her family without giving a legitimate reason now, she is lost to them forever. Their comfort and mine are

It feels like it has been forever since I have seen my old friend Victor Nelson. Seeing him show up surprisingly in front of the building where my penthouse resides was a true delight. We embraced each other and took a stroll along the beachfront of Lake Michigan in Chicago by Navy pier. It was amazing to catch up with him since he has been absent from my life for so many years. I inquired how his mate is doing, where he is in life now. I was pleased to learn that he and his mate her very happy together, she helped him redirect his life, and he became a lawyer. I invited him to join my legal team, and be my official legal advisor if he will accept it.Later that night we enjoyed ourselves like old times. we traveled out of the city and painted each town we happened across red while satiating our thirsts. After hours of hunting, I do not even realize that I am once again in the clearing of anguish from so many years ago. The cabin is still there, a bit weathered by natur

Over the next few weeks it seems as if my life was filled with neverending chaos. An endless parade of meetings, media appearances and paparrazzi. Filthy parasites! and werewolves give me derogatory names. Paparazzi make me want to go on a killing spree and suck them all dry! Trying to walk out of my apartment building during common hours of the day is daunting, they are literally right in my face at times. When they begin to pester me too much I improvise, solve my problem, by inviting them over for a "night cap" of my own. I still remember last week, during an evening which was a really difficult day for me. I felt so suffocated, I had not hunted in what felt like awhile, and a photographer, who could have been gorgeous if given the right style clothing, would not stop pestering me, she was very bold and in my face. I snapped, compelled her to come to my Penthouse in the late hours. That was a very entertaining night, we spent long hours tangled in my guest bedroom sheets, as I sa

The weeks passed, life started to feel tedious. Going through the daily motions of being a "human" multi-billionaire was starting to grow old. I will never give up my business however, a part of the longs for some time off, just like Charles is enjoying. Perhaps I should connect with Victor now that he has returned to the city. We used to have some wild fun before he found his mate he had a great time painting the town red. I miss the hunting trips, that was a different world though, with a lot less technology, easier to lurk and hunt in small towns.I decide to do something which I have not done in years and should have done ages ago. I am going to see the Coven Council. I need to shake things up in my life, and it starts by demanding the claim which they know I rightfully deserved. I know that many of them do not like me, degenerate, outdated old leeches. I know who I rightfully am, and they have been holding me back. Out of all those blood-sucking parasites, only a h

The time is slowly starting to arrive when I reveal myself to my old friend. For years I have been keeping a close watch on Hunter Eldridge. I am disgusted with what I have seen, he really has gone from a ruthless dark lord to a human-loving marshmallow. I have been watching over Hunter for years, with each passing year he makes one mistake after another.I pace around my secluded mansion, this is where I have been for decades, as I let him believe that I died that fateful night. It was my push for him to overcome his wallowing for that human bitch. He needed to move on from his dearly beloved and embrace his darkness, once he did, I knew he would become a ruthless monster! He has the potential is in his blood. He would never know that but, I know completely that he is a descendant of Count Abner. I was there throughout the years silently watching. I once served in Abners presence. Abners beautiful and wicked wife Theldora, they were evil to the core.It wa

The flight felt like it lasted for hours before the plane finally landed. I was relieved to be exiting the plane, as soon as I was outside, on located my car. I am very thankful to Ms. Tomes for arranging for my driver William to meet me at my location."Hello, Mr. Eldridge" he greets me with a professional smile."Hello Will, how is the family?" I ask him as I place myself in the back seat. He informs me during the drive of their wellbeing. He tells me that his son just graduated from Yale with honors. As I exit the car I give him five hundred in cash as congratulations for his son after I remove my luggage. Shocked with a smile, he thanks me as he drives away. I head to the concierge desk. The woman behind the desk is blatantly ignoring me while talking on the phone, in what appears to be a personal call. I think right there if I should invest in buying this whole to hire acceptable people! I clear my throat "Ahem! excuse me, miss!" I speak loudly

The Beloved Chapter 47
The look on her face is confused but, with the knowledge that she is in trouble. ‘Yeah, you’re sweet little ass is in trouble for the little stunt you pulled!’ Mr. Gregory turns to the sound, and barks at her “Ms. Williams, clean that mess up!” she immediately lowers herself and does as she is asked. I want to scold him for his attitude but, he is not aware of our history. Instead, I approach her and help her. “Mr. Eldridge, you don’t have to help me,” she says “Mr. Eldridge? Have you forgotten me?” I ask her in a very low voice. She looks at me, she is trying to hide her longing. Eliza is pushing through, I know it.“My office in two hours, you have some explaining to do” I whisper to her. I stand up and walk away.
The Beloved Chapter 46
I left the Oregon mountain range, with a sole purpose in my mind. I needed to find Camille!I cannot believe that she abruptly left the way she did! No, goodbye, Nothing! The mere idea is painful. Do I mean nothing to her? Was I originally on sex ride all along? No, I cannot think like that! I know that Camille does not willing to do that with her teachers, and I felt Eliza’s pull towards me. What the fuck happened? I am not going to get any answers here! I need to leave. New York City here I come. I arrive back in Portland, I inform my brother of my imminent departure, I inform him that I need to return home, and apologize for any inconvenience it may cause. My brother as always is completely understanding and wishes me a safe tri
The Beloved Chapter 45
Chapter 45I continue to drive around Portland, feeling like I am going nowhere, or have nowhere to go. I am terrified to come home and find her gone. I know that she would need her space, she should be a thousand miles away from me. It would be for her safety however, I also wonder what she meant by ‘being watched all her life” did someone already know about her before I did? Was it because she discovered the truth? Either way, that means she has been in danger for years. That is a scary thought, I am thankful that no one has attempted to harm her. I drive back to the penthouse, heart feeling like ice, as I walk inside and find her gone.
The Beloved Chapter 44
Chapter 44The next morning, I lay in bed in her arms again. I feel so blissfully happy however, the horrors of yesterday's events are fresh in my mind. I am ecstatic that she agreed to move in with me so suddenly but, this still spells danger! She is being hunted by that psychotic bitch, because of me! I do not know how she found out about her but, I know secrets never stay hidden in the Vampire world. I need to be honest with her and tell her the truth before Bathilda comes for her. I turn to my side in the bed and watch her dream. I could stare at her sleep forever, she is so beautiful, and I love that she is mine
The Beloved Chapter 43
Chapter 43I held her throughout the night, as her body shook and she sobbed at not only the horrific sight she witnessed but, the slaughter of her apartment. I rocked her all night long until she fell asleep in my arms. I laid her on my bed, and she snuggled into my scent. I watched her sleep for a few hours swearing an oath to protect her. Suddenly, I started to feel a crawling sensation go through me, my gums started to tingle. With horror, I realized then, that the beast at bay has only been laying dormant purposefully. It was waiting to have her here, so it could strike. I wrenched myself away from her, in detest of myself with a heavy heart, how could I have made her feel so safe when I was just as dangerous?
The Beloved Chapter 42
Chapter 42Things definitely escalated quicker than I expected but, I would not change it for the world. I have not felt this happy in decades. Even now as I lay here, wrapped up in her arms, caressing her naked back. She sighs as she snuggles further into my side. I cannot believe that after all this time, through all the emotional turmoil I have gone through, she is back in my life!” I know this form is not the true Eliza however, I am still as overjoyed. I would not change anything about Camille, she everything that my wife was plus more. I feel like she connects with me on deeper levels than my wife did. I softly caress he
The Beloved Chapter 41
Chapter 41Later that night, I lay in bed and felt relaxed. More relaxed than I had in a very long time. I felt as if my long-dead heart and lost soul were starting to feel at peace. All these years without my soulmate. So many decades of grief and despair since she was taken from me. It was the first night in so long, I nearly came close to sleeping again. Not humanistic sleeping but a sense of rest that some Vampires are able to obtain. Once this happens, they look asleep but, their mind is in a coma-like state of contentment until they are awakened by their love. I have heard it happening once some Vampires meet their destined soulmate. I have longed for such an experience. I need to keep a sharp eye now, that I have Camille. I am aware tha
