Midnight passed, Tommy was fast asleep, and Diana went to Andrew's side and asked him about the thing that bothers her: "Andrew, does a vampire have a mate?"

He sighed so heavily that her shoulders slumped. "What made you ask that, Diana?" He said with amusement in his voice that, by the sudden change of her moods, he sensed her vulnerable state.

“Well, I'm just curious—”

“Don't be.”

“Why?” she hissed, rolling her eyes.

“Diana, you’re way too hard on yourself, stop thinking about things," Andrew said, echoing her mental anxiety.

“Is that really what you want? For us to ignore things between us?”

“For now, yes.”

“Why?”

"Because, as I said, I'm doing this for you. I can't—just let things be professional between us.”

She closed her eyes. “You shouldn’t let what happened in your past colour how you see yourself now. But the whole friends-to-lovers thing can happen, you know. It doesn’t just happen in romance novels. If two people were mated, fated, or whatever you call that, I don't think

    Andrew stuffed his hands into his trouser pockets and moved to look out of one of the distant mountains, his back turned to her.Diana could see the tension in his shoulders even through his clothes. The breadth of his shoulders had always secretly fascinated her. She had dreamed of him since he moved in next door to her apartment; he had seen him rowing and swimming in the summer on the lake in the university gym when he’d come home to visit. Tall and lean-hipped, with abdomen muscles ridged with strength and endurance, she had been fascinated by his athleticism, as it had been in such stark contrast to her young, busy, poor body. And when he’d brought his lover home for visits, Diana had watched them both. His lover had been a supermodel—stunning, slim, and glamorous. Never had she seen two people more perfect for each other or more devotedly in love. It had set a benchmark for her to aspire to. Perhaps an impossible benchmark, but a girl could dream, couldn’t she? “Andrew—”"Enough

    Tommy just raised a brow, and Diana scowled at Andrew. A minute passed, and the trio knocked on the door of the unknown but enchanted cabin; however, no one seemed to answer. “Are you sure we can trespass here?”Andrew nodded his head. “Who would put you in jail? Winnie the Pooh Woodland Police?”Diana hissed at him, “Why are you so mean to Tommy? He was just asking.”“Then why are you siding with him?”She cocked a brow at him and said, “Because he is my friend.”Andrew halted his knock; his eyes glittered with power only Diana could feel. “I am your mate.”Mate, my ass!“Whatever!”“Kid, enough with the childish trauma," Tommy said as he pushed a little harder. It cricked as it opened. “Here we go."Diana snapped at Andrew as they sauntered inside and took a seat on a small couch. By then, the trio was all powerless to the magnificent illusion conjured by the tenant of the little cabin. It gave them what they truly desired. What their hearts truly desire.A few seconds later, the th

    By then, Diana began to feel the magic of the illusion; her desires were seeping into her mind, which made her vulnerable, but she didn't care. Not until Andrew mates her.The weather has been harsh as Diana's travelled through foreign neighbourhoods. The winds were so high and cold, and she saw trees swaying dangerously as she drove down the dark road. The driving rain makes it impossible to see through the windscreen.Without warning a tree falls in her path, and she swerves to miss it and ends up stuck in the mud. Diana gets out and looks around; she knows her phone does not work out here, and she wonders where the closest help may be. She can see in the distance a rooftop, and she grabs her overnight bag, locks up her old car, and begins to hike in that direction.The going was slow as she was not dressed for a hike. She was wearing a dress and boots with heels, and the wind tears at her coat, making each step harder as she leans into it. She eventually arrives at the cabin and he

    Tommy sighed as he looked out of the cabin window again. The snow was falling faster now. There had been snow flurries most of the afternoon. The addition so far has amounted to about four inches. Now it looked like it was going to get severe. The weather people had anticipated this one, and for once, it looked like they might be right. There was supposed to be another eighteen inches by morning, though most of it was supposed to fall during the evening. Well, he was warm in his cabin up here in the foothills, and it was Sunday. Tommy had nowhere to go until Monday morning, so let it snow. He had come up here to get away from the rest of the world, so the snow just added to the desired significance of privacy.He was adding a few logs to the fire when he heard a knock on the door. He wasn't foreseeing anyone and wondered who would be out in this weather so far from nowhere. He opened the door and found a gorgeous woman about his age standing there. She had a long winter coat on, black

    Tommy growled as he looked at Diana and Andrew. "So there is no cabin in the woods?”The vampire master shook his head.“We were all gone mad and hallucinated?”“Yes, Tommy, stop being overdramatic.”“Oh yeah, you got me some disgusting hallucination, no offence, Diana, but no, you aren't my type.”Diana's eyes went wide, and Andrew furrowed his forehead as he hissed at Tommy. His fangs suddenly elongated.She rolled her eyes at the two men and said, “You two, stop being assholes, and let's be serious here.”"Agree," Andrew muttered with anger in his eyes towards the werewolf.She added, “Boys, trust me, it was awful, but can we agree on this? What happens in the devil's forest stays in the devil's forest. ”“Agreed,” both said in unison.“And we will never talk about it, okay?" In those times she was most embarrassed, it should have been the others that were blushed because she was being kind and honest and they weren't. However, the two nodded in agreement. "Good."

    Diana stood and shook her head as she complained, "I hate this dress! I can't move freely." Both of her hands on the sword fully extended above her head as he attempted to finish the beast, just like what they practice at Andrew’s mansion.While the leader hunter brought his sword down and put forward hers in protection, “Stupid,” the pitch of clicking and screeching of their sword knocked out of the hunter as he landed squarely on his back on the dirty surface as well. “Filthy whore!” He murmured.“Me? I'm no whore, you stupid maggots," Diana replied with the same anger in her voice. The hunters' eyes glinted with fury. He underestimated the female, and he knew it was his number one mistake.“Underestimating a woman, I see. Jesus, you guys couldn't even make a proper skirt!” Finally, Diana brought her sword down, and the leader raised his in defence. The sound of clanging metal echoed through the side of the forest, as did her profanities.On the other hand, rage tore at Andrew's min

    Southern part of the mountain, near the Devil's Forest.On their journey, Alpha Henry found something that had torn his alpha senses off. He turned hard as he surveyed the landscape. “Eve, can you sense that?”Eve frowned at him. “Sense what? I don't—““There is something off here. It tingles my wolf. Worrying about him.”His face contorted; he focused, but not on work or anything else. It was controlled. Firmly controlled, and that was never a good thing. Because it meant he was itching to lose it.Still, for Eve, it did nothing to take away from his overall attractiveness. His shoulders seemed to shift slightly, but they remained strong. Powerful. Yet always subtle. Just like him... subtle.As Henry passed by, Eve smiled briefly. His eyes flicked towards her for a moment. In that one look, he pried into her, and then, just for a brief second, an honest smile played across his lips. But that was only a moment... and the hardness returned. "We should camp here, I suppose," said Henry,

    “Eve, don't open your eyes,” Jenna shouted at the older woman. She hoped this assault wouldn't last long; it arrived in the form of an advancing surface of sand and debris, which may be miles wide and several thousand feet high. It blows with little warning, making venturing conditions hazardous. Blinding them, and the choking dust was reduced to their vision. Sandstorms last only a few minutes, but this was a different storm altogether. They could barely breathe, and they snuggled together. They prepared to die. But as suddenly as it began, the storm stopped. It crossed over them. They coughed, sputtered, and panned out the dust and dirt from their clothes. “Eve, are you okay?” She asked again as Eve looked around. “Shit!” Eve grumbled under her breath. The storm had not actually passed them by. It was now all around them. They stood on a swirling surface and circled the mayhem like an enormous corral."This is probably the eye of the storm," exclaimed Jenna. She had heard of such a

    " I… I've come to realize that things aren't quite as black and white as I've been portraying them to be. I don't need to give up something to become someone else. I'm hoping to gain something more. But as long as you were with me. I don't care anymore, Andrew. My grandpappy can wait. In fact, the tenth century can wait. Right?” She looked at him with a sheepish expression.It took him no time to respond affirmatively. His hands glided down her back to her shoulders as they reached his chamber, then he went down her neck back again. "Yes, my love." The corners of his mouth split into a sensuous smile. "Your grandfather can wait." His words kissed the side of her face. “However, I believe you could push yourself even further. You are powerful Diana. Never hold back yourself. Do whatever is necessary to survive.”“Why? Do you want me to be like you?” She exhaled as his hand became entangled in the buttons on the front of her gown.

    Diana's heart began to beat again, her lungs began to fill with air, and she took a deep, gasping breath. Slowly, the chill began to melt away from her body, dissipating in the face of the raging river coursing through her, ratcheting up her seer magic a notch. The amazing bliss she felt from his single drop of blood fueled her mind and made her want for more, and she felt like she was drunk on lust. Diana could see everything so clearly now, and at that moment, she wished she could have Andrew with her. Now! Right here, right now!And so she stepped closer, coming to a complete stop in front of Andrew. Then she pushed herself to her toes and grabbed the back of his neck, pulling him against her for a long, passionate kiss. In that kiss was the sweetness of passion, a million loving thoughts condensed into a moment. In that kiss were the promise of years and the sweetness of waiting for real love.She then drew back just as fast as she had come. Diana was aware that people were starin

    Blanca's cheeks were flushed. "I'll be delighted to comply with my lord's wishes." She kissed his cheek once more as she grinned. It had been a long journey, a long adventure, and she had given up hope that she would ever see Dimitri's smile once more...The ladies with the wine approached them, and Blanca whispered to Dimitri, "This area looks like a battle zone, and I can't wait to taste you again." He halted when Elfar groggily waved the ladies over to them. "How is he going to get it ready for a celebration by tonight?" "He was drunk as hell." Blanca wondered as she waved her hand to Elfar, who reciprocated by waving his hands in their direction."The stubbornness of Elfar should never be underestimated. He was more than just a mere wolf. He is my sire demon for a reason.""I get what you're saying. He's just as stubborn as you are!" Blanca spoke with a little smile on her lips as she gave him a sly look. "Don't be concerned. There's no danger of that, my love. My stubbornness wil

    Nirvana, on the other hand, smirked and murmured, "I happen to know that you are killing all of the offspring you have spawned through your wicked younger years," Nirvana said with a smirk and a "tsked."Camellana looked at Danny with a guilty expression on her face.Nirvana went on to say, "After all, you are not the only one that has spies." It turned out to be true. Nirvana had covertly dispatched spies across the hamlets in order to gather information about Camellana's plan.Continuing to dig, Nirvana said, "You are gathering military resources for yourselves to take with you, leaving Redberg Village as a shell of its former self, with its great walls as its sole defense. And I'm not sure what the assembly of the knights had expected you to perform, but I'm sure it's something big, something monumentally important. Despite Sulu's self-assurance and bluster, your very situation was dire. Andrew Norton was led here by my spy, and you are well aware that I am probably the only person i

    Diana made a shaky motion with her head. Several strands of filth dropped from her hair and landed on the dirt floor. Diana then continued to recount all that had occurred earlier, while the others sat there and sobbed as she spoke. The others were so enraged at the traitors that it was understandable that they were infuriated. Even Anna had been questioned about what had transpired, and she proceeded to tell them about her confrontation with Sulu as well, which elicited a gasp from the audience.The elderly lady was deafeningly silent. Diana recognized that she was just as excellent at concealing her feelings as Lucinda was. In addition to being a charismatic leader, she would also be an excellent commander of their troops, as Anna would be.The following morning, Diana, Danny Nirvana, and Elfar, who had recovered from his wounds, arrived in the Redberg Village, which was close to Camellana's villa. As a result, Knight Leo chose to stay for another day at the witches' new cavern, firs

    Elfar had the distinct impression that the ground itself was enraged at them. Massive mountains of loosened rock were falling into the cavern, and the rapid shift of such a large amount of mass was causing the entire area to become unstable. A louder, sharper disturbance could be heard just above their heads, and when Elfar peered up, he noticed fissures appearing in the concrete and stone roof of the tunnel. It was a terrifying sight. Within seconds, the fissures had grown in length and width. Clods of earth spilled out of them, strewing the train rails with their ashes."Run!" Elfar let out a yell. He snatched Anna and Leo's arms once more. "The tunnel is about to collapse! Is it possible for Nirvana to create some gateways, perhaps portals, to allow us all out?" Elfar was the one who inquired."I'm not sure if it's even possible to do so. Lucinda had made certain that her spell was strong enough to prevent anyone from entering or exiting the cavern without her permission. It's not t

    Leo and Anna seemed to smile at their successful accomplishment.When they returned to Diana, they saw that she was barely holding her own against Sulu, but Nirvana was on her side as well.But Anna rushes to the other witches who were still battling with the two elders, and the three of them are found dead in the ravine, practically sizzling with the lava, as the enormous beast slowly drops its black tail into the ravine and falls. Along with the witches, of course. Then Anna threw herself at the elders and engaged in combat with the four friends. While Tommy engaged in combat with the four huge goblins that had fallen from the above-ground pit. And Leo rushed to Diana's side to assist her.Although she was backed up against the ravine that encircled Sulu's dais, Diana came close to falling, until the snake plunged into the lava under her feet. Nirvana was well aware that Diana was on the verge of being pushed over the ledge and into the abyss of molten lava below her feet. She didn'

    Tommy added, "Oh well, D. I had planned on eating snake BBQ for dinner this evening, but it's not even feasible with that shadow hanging over me. Doesn't it look like a green screen that was used in future movies, D?""Yes, it's some kind of animated fuck of crap! In addition to a pot of giant worm soup. So put an end to your stomach aches and put your wolf fangs on, Tom."Then both of them halted their mind foolish conversation then Sulu's boomed around the niche of the chamber."Your commander Cornelius is a weakling," Sulu howled. "...Cornelius was a softie, but Nirvana here, on the other hand, was astute in assisting me, as were the two other chiefs." The two elders of the Dark Native's coven appeared out of nowhere, causing the witches to gasp in surprise. It took them completely by shock. It's no surprise why Sulu was successful in apprehending Lucinda. "Traitor!" Anna muttered under their collective breath while the rest of the witches stared at the two older leaders with contem

    But Sulu is a master at exploiting the relatively weak aspects and outsmarting his stronger opponents. Yet he was livid, and his hands trembled. His fury had such a potent effect on him that if he had stayed that way in front of a human, it would have blinded them. Nevertheless, Diana was not a human. Vampire Seer, the Fated One. She wouldn't be phased with this jerk. She thought to herself.Sulu, on the other hand, flashed a menacing smile and lifted his hands in the air as if invoking his magical abilities. "Arise, my brethren!" he said emphatically.Then unexpectedly, the huge shadow and black barrier started to wiggle and move. To slither towards them. It was not a column that had fallen. It had come to life. And it was now poised to swoop down on Diana's entourage.Meanwhile, Knight Leo vampire knights and Aya's witches were frantically fighting with the Goblin who was waiting at the entrance to the Gathering Hall.
