DANIEL'S POVI wanted to fight back but seeing the look on Kimberley's face, I knew she was in no condition to start a fight or run with me. I knew she needed rest and there was no way, I, in my tired state, could fight the men who held fast to us.As they walked a little, we were teleported into a castle, and then we saw her properly, sitting on a large throne and dressed in billowing robes of red. Her gray hair was packed beautifully upon her head.“Set them down” She commanded, and they set us down. I immediately crawled to Kimberley, who smiled at me and tried to assure me she was fine, which I knew was just a facade to help me stop worrying, but I couldn't stop worrying about her, her face had grown so pale and she looked so weak.“So these are the two that had been looking for me, Well, it's a good thing the poisoned claw had been kept with me, it was nice playing the nice guy for a while but I wonder if no one told them those searching for the three masters are searching for tr
I looked around in despair.“Dan! It's me!”“Dan! Look at me!”“They're just reflections of me!”“Dan! Dan! My baby wouldn't be saved if you lose this! ““I know it's hard, but please, it's me! Look in my eyes!”The numerous Kimberleys cried and threw themselves upon me.“Pick one and the rest would be killed, the game ends and whatever you have, your lady or a reflection, it's all yours.” The Master said merrily, and then another Kimberley was taken roughly.“DAN! Please, No!” She screamed and I was greatly inclined to pick her up, but it was too late, I watched in horror as the guard slit her neck.I tried to think.“Kim! Just say something you and I alone know, what is the status of the father of your baby!?” I shouted in fear and confusion and …“An Alpha!” Came to the response of all the Kimberleys.The Master laughed with glee.“Oh, this is pleasing! Your time is going!” She said as another Kimberley was taken.“Dan!” Kimberley screamed.Then one Kimberley stopped and waved at m
KIMBERLEY'S POV.I was so filled with fear that I trembled from my head to my toe.The hands that grabbed me were as cold as ice and I felt the vibration each time he spoke with that voice which was colder and deeper than a lake in winter.“Please, not her blood. We…" Daniel said, but even I in my fear-filled state could tell that he was at a loss for words.The Vampire Lord straightened me up, and I almost fell back, but he caught me.I could see he had no shadow and so did the other vampire that surrounded us.Then he tilted my face to his and looked straight into my eyes. His eyes were very dark and in them, I saw a cold, lifeless person I knew that this creature standing was without emotions and I could not help but feel even more scared than I had been.“That's it. I love the fear in those beautiful round eyes.” He said and left me and I staggered. “Bring them to the castle.” He said with his eyes still on me and in a blur, he was gone.My breath came out faster than I could man
KIMBERLY'S POVI just wanted it all to end. In my condition, how was I to climb about a hundred staircases while fighting off a thousand Vampires?He didn't want us to survive.At that moment, it felt as though the best thing for me was to give up and as I watched, tears filled up my eyes.Then we heard the booming voice of the Vampire Lord echoing and bouncing off the walls.“Time ticks patiently, wolves, you have all the time in the world.” He said, and I could imagine the smirk on his face, and above us was an hourglass and sand was pouring slowly but steadily from the top to the bottom.This meant, even if we made it, and our time was up, he'd still have our blood.It was a suicide mission, and I decided to let go, but then Daniel squeezed my hand tighter.“Let's go.” He said, and in his voice was such confidence that I wondered if he hadn't scanned the odds.“But Daniel! We're going to die.” I said in alarm and he held my shoulders.“We're doing this for your baby, we have to fi
KIMBERLY'S POVI was instantly filled with dread.After all that fight and bloodshed, after the bloodbath I just witnessed, was I about to witness mine? The hourglass was brought, and it was covered with a cloth.The Vampire Lord smiled.“Guess what would be?” He asked with a taunting smile, and I felt my heart pounding hard against the wall of my chest.At once, he pulled back the cloth and I fell to the ground.Daniel's hands rested on his knees, and finally, I was able to breathe.I fell to the ground out of relief because it remained just a little, if we had delayed even a second longer, we would be finished.The Vampire Lord smiled.“You two exceeded my expectations, Now I know why you ought to know your enemies well before fighting with them, I never expected anyone to know we're compelled to count scattered things.” He said and laughed again. " Tell me what you want. “ He said as his expression changed back to its usual hardness and I immediately stood to my feet.“I was told
I felt fear as I discovered I had just consumed blood.What was it for? Why did the Vampire Lord give me blood to take before I started delivery?I had so many questions but I wasn't able to bring up proper answers due to the sudden pain I felt that announced My work in the Labour room had started.
KIMBERLY'S POVI couldn't endure the fact that my baby had been taken away, and even by the man I ran from. I felt heartbroken and didn't know what I was going to do as I was unable to go to his palace now and claim the baby.It would complicate things more between us. My hands were tied in this situation. Daniel tried to console me, but there was no way I could be consoled. I remembered everything I went through just to deliver the baby, safely. Everyone also came to comfort me and I just sat down on the floor, crying my eyes out.~ANDRE'S POVMy warriors and I got back to our kingdom and I heard the giggle of a baby again and decided to search the baskets this time around. Finally, I confirmed my hunch, it was truly a baby. It was a boy, and he had a bright smile, I do not know why, but I felt connected to this baby.I loved the baby wholeheartedly as I looked at how cheerful it was in this period, but I noticed he was a bit different, but I would only find out while he grew up.
KIMBERLY'S POVAfter a few years, I finally dared to go and ask for my son. Although he wouldn't recognize me, and it may be hard for him to change environment and parents, I needed him back. I couldn't just forget all I had gone through, to deliver him safely. I was grateful to Andre for helping me take care of my son and not killing him. And I was prepared to say the truth behind the pregnancy if it called for that, so I would take my son.“Daniel, I would be going to take my son, today,” I informed, looking at him on the couch.“Humm. Are you sure about this?” He asked, looking at me with a concerned face.“Yes, of course.” I smiled at him.Daniel had been so good to me as well. Even when I didn't reciprocate his feelings that were clear, he never changed towards me. Then I left the house, on a journey back to Andre's kingdom to claim my son. When I got to his kingdom and right in front of his palace, I was overwhelmed by the nostalgia I felt there and tears flowed down my eyes.“
KIMBERLY'S POVI turned back to him and pulled him in a tight hug."You have to let me go, Daniel, I can't stay here forever," I said moved to tears."Then stay for one more day. Just one more day and let's forget everything that's happening. Let me do all the things I wished to do with you." He said and I nodded because all I wanted to do was leave him smiling."Tell me all you want to do with me," I said and he led me to the Kitchen, took a note, and started to write.He wished to cook with me, braid my hair, he wished for us to tell stories late in the night, he wished for us to fly high in the sky together, he wished for us to sail on a boat, just the both of us, he wished to kiss me one more time, he wished to fall asleep in my arms.He continued to write but realized all those things would be hard to complete in one night then he stopped and looked at me."This would do." He said."How would we fly?" I asked and he smiled."There's a way." He said and we went to the back of the
DANIEL'S POVMy heart broke all over in a thousand pieces and I couldn't say a word. I knew it. I saw it coming. I already expected it but once more I was the one standing in the rain with no one to shield me from it. I knew Andre wouldn't let her go just like that, he would have let her know she was his Luna and that she had to stay.When she saw I couldn't form words, she spoke."I got back my memories. A friend helped me with it. I remember everything. I don't want you to be sad Daniel, I don't want it. I'm grateful for everything you've done for me and I wish I could repay you but nothing I do would ever be enough." She said and I nodded."You recall everything?" I asked and reasoned that could be the only explanation. She just would never stop loving Andre, there was no space for me in her heart.~I couldn't speak as memories of I and Kimberly flooded my mind. How had I come so far, how had I fallen in love with her to the point of no return? She was someone else's. How had I
KIMBERLY'S POVAndre kept on asking me what had happened but large tears formed in my eyes and dropped faster than rain.I remembered everything. Nothing was left out. I knew who I was, I knew who he was.Finally, I was back to him, Andre, I had loved and missed him for so long.I looked at him and touched his face, not believing he was right in front of me. Did he forgive me for leaving when he had told me not to? I couldn't believe I was back where I had always longed to be.He was the one I loved, Daniel was my friend. A friend I held dear to my heart. That was why I had been so confused without my memories. I and Daniel were thriving on friendly love. He knew I wouldn't return, and he had told me."Kimberly. Talk to me please." Andre said and I pulled him to me and hugged him tight."I loved you. All I wanted was for you to love me, I remember everything now, the ink from Bloom, it was so I could remember. Andre, I'm sorry for leaving, a lot of things happened, that was why I coul
KIMBERLY'S POV"What's the matter?" I heard Andre say and shook because I didn't even hear the door open nor did I expect him to walk in. "Um .. it's just ..." I said but didn't know how to explain it. He walked to me and took the bottle."This is no ordinary liquid." He said and looked at me."Bloom gave it to me, um, you might not know her.." I said but he raised his eyebrows."Bloom? Do not go near her. That witch's evil, she might be trying to get back at me with you because you might not know but I destroyed her Kingdom. So this is the danger she said you were bringing.""Who?" I asked and he smirked."Just an old lady." He replied and I stood up."She forgave you because I helped her get her necklace," I said and my eyes widened as he looked shocked."You helped her what??" He asked and I fell to the bed and stood immediately."We're friends," I said and he shook the ink bottle."I'm keeping this, get ready for the ball." He said and left the room. He wouldn't understand. There
ANDRE'S POVI smiled as I realized Kimberly wasn't going to leave the toilet till I left. It was amusing. I went to her mirror and looked in it, it was then I realized I hadn't been that happy in a long time when she left, there were so many horrible things I did to try to fill the hole that she had left in my heart and now that I looked back, those people didn't have to suffer. I left the room thinking of the previous night, it had been something I hadn't experienced in a long time. This put the smile back on my lips, she had become shier than before.As I walked to my quarters, I saw Maya hitting her head on my door, I raised a brow, she seemed to be drunk.I walked to her and stood behind her and it took a minute before she noticed me."Oh, it's Andre! My love!! The guy who broke my heart mercilessly and was able to wander around having a romance with another lady. " She said and placed her hands on my chest looking at me completely drunk."Is that why you've been at my door? You
KIMBERLY'S POV"What's that?" Andre asked and I looked back at him and shook my head but the moment I looked back, there was just an old dark tree with bent branches.I sighed. There was nothing. It was just my mind playing pranks on me. Then I saw the flowers, those pretty flowers that I had seen Andre give me in my memory. Then I looked beside me and my mind made it so vivid it was as though me of that day was staring at those flowers with me and Andre came to my side."The flowers you loved." He said and went deeper into the garden and plucked them for me.Then I remembered everything about that day, I had been feeling sad but happened to chance on the flowers and Andre happened to give it to me."Here." He said putting some in my hair and I looked at him. He made everything feel so real like I was really in love with him."Why are you staring at me?" He asked as he looked at me with a smile.I shook my head slowly."Just recalling something," I said.~We walked hand in hand to di
KIMBERLY'S POVI hadn't even made it past the Luna's quarters when I saw him coming through the double doors looking at me and I looked at all the maids stationed there who looked away.How did they do it? How did they send word to him without saying a word here?He walked to me and turned me around."I'm leaving!" I said but he pushed me back the way I came."Save the drama for the four walls. Not with the eyes and ears all around." He said in a low voice."Oh really is there a place in this Palace where you don't know what's going on?" I asked in anger but he pushed me inside my room and locked the door. "There isn't." He said briefly and looked at the things I had packed. "I thought we agreed on staying till you regained your memory." He said and I looked at him straight in the eye."I simply decided I didn't want to stay with a liar," I said and he closed his eyes and took a deep breath."You have to explain yourself well." He said leaning against the door."Just moments ago, I
ANDRE'S POVI didn't think she thought she was going to leave just like that.If only she knew how I almost went crazy just searching for her and waiting for her, she wouldn't say she was leaving and where was she going to that was so important than staying here at my Kingdom with me. She was my Luna."You are my Luna., I told her and she replied sharply."I am not your Luna." She said and it got me shocked."You just do not remember, you are mine., I said and she shook her head and walked away.I didn't want things to start this way, I had tried my best for things to go smoothly, I didn't want a fight, and I didn't want it to be like before where I wasn't able to say how I felt, I wanted this time to be different, I wanted a new beginning but what was she saying?Was she given to some other Alpha? What was the note she received?"Kimberly." I called and went after her. She turned and looked at me. "Let's do it this way. At least till your memory returns, do not leave." I said and s
KIMBERLY'S POVThe footsteps didn't stop and I immediately went to the curtains and pulled them apart giving the room a little light I saw a pretty lady who stopped and raised an eyebrow."Really Kimberly. I shouldn't have underestimated you, you sure have a lot of things up your sleeve. How could you imagine something so sweet as losing your memory? So you'd escape disobeying him? Running away?" She asked and I took in her words.I had disobeyed Andre, I had run away. It only made sense. I didn't love him. The person I loved was Daniel. Andre had been lying."I truly lost my memory. Who are you?" I asked and she laughed out loud."Who am I? That's quite hilarious. So you came for your child but forgot the person that was with you all the times you were pregnant when? Nice. Nice indeed. Why did you return? I thought you were living fine. Why did you suddenly return after all these years?" She asked me and I looked at her and knew she was one of those jealous people that always seemed
