When I woke up the next day, Lauren was still lying beside me in the bed. She was snoring softly. I kissed her cheek and covered her body with the blanket. I got up from the bed, went to the bathroom, and then left the room to get some food in the kitchen.
I want to surprise Lauren with breakfast in bed this morning. After all that she has been through in the last few days, she deserves a treat from me.
I descended the staircase, sporting a bright smile on my face, and met my grandmother. When I stepped into the kitchen, she was fixing herself a cup of coffee. "Good morning, Gran!" I greeted her in a cheerful manner.
"Morning, son," Grandma replied. "Where is that woman of yours?"
"You mean, Lauren? She's still sleeping in our room," I responded.
"So, what's her story?" she asked.
"Huh? Lauren?" I said, confused as to why she asked.
"Yeah. Who kidnapped her? We know now that Norris didn't have anything to do with her kid

And she likes you. That is why she reveals her true personality to you. To others, she appears intimidating, but if you know her, she is a different person.

*3rd POV*In the study room.The family was having a serious discussion about what to do with Lauren after the appalling incident. Everyone was still reeling from the shock. No one expected it to happen in the middle of a family dinner.No one!Especially since everyone considers Lauren a nice and good girl. That is why everyone was shaken to the core.Thick silence hangs in the air; the atmosphere is gloomy."What are we going to do now?" Luna Alicia broke the silence. Her face was stressed out. She was severely affected emotionally by what happened tonight; she can't believe that her perfect family dinner reunion was destroyed by something so horrific that it will leave a bitter taste in her mouth for years to come."All I can say is that we are no longer safe when Lauren is in our midst. Whoever uses her for their own purposes can do the same thing again and again until we all die one by one at her hands," Grandma Flora stated grim

The cover was back too, trapping her inside.Then she felt the coffin land on a hard surface after hearing a thud.

How did she arrive in the forest? She was in the mansion with Lyn."What are you waiting for, Lauren? Do you want to stay in the coffin forever?" Grandma Flora asked."Grandma? Is that you?"

*3rd POV*"I'm still here, dear," Magnus finally replied."Okay. I thought you already left because you find my presence boring," Lauren said."Nah, don't say that. I offered you before to stay with me for good, but you chose Alex over me, so I give you your freedom back. But horrible things happened to you, and you are miserable now. I truly feel sad for you," Magnus said in a gloomy tone.Lauren sighed deeply. "It's not Alex's fault.""OK. As you say so," Magnus said, contemplating what he was about to say to her next."I just feel so lost right now. My vision is gone, and I'm now reduced to a useless human being. It's a hard pill to swallow," Lauren said, teary-eyed."I sympathize with your current condition, dear. But all is not lost yet. You still have me. You can stay in my house forever if you want. You will have Tabitha as your maid until your dying days. Or I can turn you into a vampire and you will live in this world for a l

I can hear Tabitha getting up and from the sound of it, she was folding the bed and placing it in the corner to be used again tonight."Tabitha, what time is it? Morning or still night?" I asked."Good morning, Miss! It's another day. A new day has just begun," Tabitha answered cheerfully."Is the sun shining outside? I remember that it was raining hard yesterday when I was in the forest," I said."Yes. The sun is already up in the sky. I'm going to the kitchen to get your breakfast. Do you want me to bring you hot coffee or milk?" Tabitha sked."Hot coffee with milk," I responded."Okay. Anything else? Are there any specific foods you want to eat?" Tabitha asked again."I'm not choosy when it comes to food. I'll eat anything as long as it's edible," I replied."OK. I'll bring you to the bathroom first, then I'll go to the kitchen afterward," Tabith

*ALEX*When I arrived at the funeral parlor and went to the second floor of the building to join my sister and parents, I was shocked to find an empty room—no coffins or whatever—just flowers and candles on the floor. Instead, what I saw were my family members looking at each other with a shocked expression on their faces.I rushed to their sides. "What's wrong, guys?" I inquired."Son, the coffins were gone! It happened so fast! It's like a blink of an eye. I felt like I was frozen in time and I don't know what happened during those moments. But the moment we were unfrozen, we were surprised to see the two caskets gone!" Mom said it in a rattled tone.My brows snapped together. "What is going on?" I asked in disbelief. "Who would steal a coffin with dead bodies in it?" I said it in bewilderment."Brother, believe us when we say that someone has frozen us and stolen the coffins!"

~MAGNUS~"So, is this your good news to me?" I asked the silhouette standing near the window, my eyes blazing with anger. "I'm in the middle of a negotiation with the opposing kingdom to obtain peace and you just whisked me away just to show me this good news?"I feel like my heart is about to explode due to jealousy. "I tell you now that seeing Lauren with Alex is making my blood boil. I don't like it! And the fact that you tolerated them and did nothing to prevent them from seeing each other makes me feel like the person I trusted the most has betrayed me!"I looked at her, feeling upset. "You disappointed me! I left you behind to watch over Lauren on my behalf! Not to tolerate the couple's reunion! You didn't even try to do anything to separate them!"I no longer hide my displeasure. I felt annoyed that my precious woman was now getting back together with her ex."Your highness, this is not the good news that I'm talking about," Granny Ursula responded.

I've been wide awake the whole night, and I want to make sure that this night will go well without any mysterious occurrences on Lauren's part based on my mother's instruction.I even put a CCTV camera inside our bedroom as evidence that Lauren was with me the whole night, just in case something went wrong.I think the party has already ended by now.When my phone rang at 2:40 in the morning, my heart beat so fast.Damn!They will never call me at this hour unless something happens!I quickly grabbed my phone and read the message.

*ALEX* On the day of the masquerade ball, I was with my family the whole afternoon, chatting with everyone. The atmosphere in the house is fantastic, filled with lively chatter. We are in good spirits, riding the wave of excitement for tonight's event. It will be the first time that our family is complete and we will be attending the masquerade ball together. In the previous ball, it's always been me who is missing and my grandparents, so today is very special because it will be a family affair and everyone will be present on the festive occasion. Everyone is excited. I can see the shimmering excitement on their faces. By 5:00 in the afternoon, I made my exit and informed everyone that I'm going home and that I would see them at the party later. I left our family home, and part of me felt sad that I couldn't attend the party. I got into my car, drove into the heavy traffic and dropped by at the vampire's place. Lauren exited the gate and waved at me. I opened the door and she qu

*LAUREN* One week had passed already. I was waiting for Magnus' return every day, yet there was still no sign of him. What could happen to him? I hope he is alright and his kingdom didn't go to war. I'm worried about his safety. I was pacing back and forth in the living room. I glanced at the clock on the wall. Alex would come anytime soon. I agreed to sleep in his house every night as part of my commitment to our relationship. I already wrote a letter for Magnus and put it in his bed just in case he would arrive at an empty house. I explained in my letter that I'm going to sleep at my friend's house. I'll be back tomorrow morning and all he needs to do is text me and I'll reply right away. My phone rang and Alex sent me a message informing me that his car was already parked outside the gate. I grabbed my shoulder bag and exited the house.

*ALEX* The following day, me and Lauren woke up late. After having a glorious night, we welcome the morning with fresh perspective and refreshed energy. I kissed Lauren's cheeks. Her eyelids stirred on the verge of waking up. "Good morning, sweetheart!" I greeted her jovially. "Morning!" She replied in a sweet tone, caressing my jaw. I patted her arms lovingly. "I'm going to work today. If you want, you can accompany me in my office," I offered. "No, thanks. I should go home." She refused my offer politely, getting off the bed and going to the bathroom. A few moments later, she emerged from the bathroom, returned to bed, and said, "Can you drop me off at the house on your way to your office?" "Sure! That's what I have planned in my mind already. I will send you home after we have breakfast," I answered. "Thank you," she murmured. "We can also teleport, right?" "Yes, we can do that as well. But I prefer that we use the car so that we can talk along the way," I said, gazing at
