It's a surprise marriage and I never thought that Gregory was serious about it. But since we're already in the chapel, I don't have a choice but to play along. There were about six vampires who attended our wedding ceremony. They all look like couples and ready to catch me in case I change my mind about it.
I'm not sure if the priest is human though. But he looks stoned the entire time. Maybe Gregory hypnotized him or something. He's not pale to be a vampire so I concluded that he's human. I absent-mindedly touched my neck where Greg bit me while I was asleep from my dorm.
"Do you, Gregory Duke, take this woman as your lawfully wedded wife?" The priest asked in a robotic tone.
"I do!" Gregory replied to the priest.
Waiting for a destined lover for 500 years has never crossed my mind when I met Gregory from the other side. That was just yesterday and now, we're already married.I've learned that for vampires, it's more important for them to have a companion. Our marriage is not exactly because of love like humans were trying to accomplish.Vampires don't have to worry about the need to have children. All they have to do is to bite someone and give them their blood. That's how newborn vampires like me were created.After the wedding, Gregory left me by myself inside the room where I woke up earlier. I'm not sure what I have to do now that I was left alone. After becoming a vampire, I already feel bored.I
"Gregory! Don't ever do that again!" I firmly said when I realized that it was him.I can see him smirk with his white teeth and fangs protruding from his luscious lips. It made me think about how those lips will feel on me besides my lips. We already kissed twice before so I have an idea that they taste sweet."What are you doing here? Let's get back outside!" Gregory said and took my hand.My thoughts about how his lips tasted made me feel embarrassed. How come I have to think about that the moment I see him? But I tried to hide my thoughts and just followed him with one hand on his.I have never been so close to a guy before and I can’t help but feel as if I’m blushing. That&rs
Learning how to be a vampire is not easy. I thought that all I needed to know was how to hunt for food. But it’s more than that because there are restrictions now that I'm already a vampire.Gregory is very patient in teaching me and I appreciate that. But there are times that it gets on my nerves. I didn't know that I needed to learn the vampire's way of living.I have to act like a proper lady whenever the vampires gather. I disagree since we are all bloodsuckers there anyway. But Gregory has a status quo to uphold and I have to protect it as well as his wife.There are times that I don't even want to join their grand get-together. Although I'm not sure if Gregory will allow me to avoid it. I don't want to know how he will react if I dec
Gregory approaches me and the "Nuno" steps back right away. I can see the fear in their eyes as they look at my husband."Mary, you have to run, he's a vampire!" One of the "Nuno sa punso" informed me.They are smaller than dwarves but bigger than fairies. Some urban legends say that they have supernatural powers and they are magical by nature."Don't be afraid, he's my husband!" I laughed with their ignorance."Really? You must be a vampire now!" The older Nuno concluded."Yes, I'm a newborn vampire. So don't worry, you know I wouldn't hurt anyone!" I explained.
A few days had passed after I saw Gregory talking to Angel. I don't dare to ask my husband about it. He's already too sensitive about my feelings for him. I don't want him getting jealous of the grim reaper.No matter how curious I was, I chose to keep my questions to myself. After all, we are going to Romania in a month. That's where the vampire council is located.Since I'm a newborn vampire, I need to prove myself to the council. Every new vampire needs to show themselves according to Gregory. That's why I have to be there along with him.There was a case before when a lot of newborns emerged. They end up being mindless creatures with a massive thirst for blood. The council was made to take control.
"What are you talking about?" I was surprised by her reaction. "I'm your husband's ex-girlfriend. Don't you ever feel insecure that I'm here?" Victoria asked. We're still standing in front of the door where she was supposed to stay. Our conversation seems to be going nowhere. Why should I be jealous of her? Sure, I'm aware that she was Gregory's ex-girlfriend. But I don't think he will let her stay here just to make me jealous. "Sorry, I'm not the jealous type! Get in so you can be more comfortable." I dismissed myself. Victoria raised one eyebrow and looked unconvinced. But I just ignored her and went down to the stairwell. I need to get some fresh air from that conversation. Or should I say,
I ended up being alone by myself in this huge place. Not that I'm jealous about Gregory tagging along with Victoria. I just hate staying in this cathedral by myself. The night is still young and for sure, they will be back by dawn. I don't plan to stay in the bedroom like a sore loser. I have to get out of this place and try to enjoy my alone time. It's been just a month since I became a vampire and Gregory's better half. But I feel like we have been married for a long time now. It seems that he's fine leaving me alone. I hate myself for thinking this way but I can't stop it. Before Victoria, all of Gregory's attention is on me. But all of a sudden, I just feel that I suddenly turned into an outcast!
"Just what I thought! Your husband is already neglecting you." Devon concluded."My husband is not neglecting me! He just needs to go out and meet the other vampires." I replied."That's too bad. Maybe he didn't trust you enough to bring you." Devon responded."Of course, he trusts me! He just needs to go there without me!" I told him.I'm getting irritated with this angel now! Earlier, I felt scared by his presence. Maybe it's because of what Angel told me before. He said that angels will lure you to hell. But I'm not human anymore. What is he doing around here?"But he went with his ex-girlfriend. Aren't you jealous?" D
"I think you have to talk to your dad about that part," I told my son as we walked back to the enchanted mountain.Marius fell silent and didn't say anything anymore. I have a feeling that he met a girl while he's roaming around the area. But I'm not in the position to teach him about finding his companion. Gregory will be able to do that for him.That made me think about how I fell for his father. He stalked me and turned me into a vampire without my consent. It was forced and I can't do anything about it anymore. But I've grown to love him as time passes by. Will Marius need to do that as well?Gregory catches up and all three of us walk towards the balete tree. Even if we can be there faster, we decided to walk like mortals for some bonding t
Marius saw a village that seemed to be hidden from the woods. He has never been this far from the enchanted mountain. It seems to be a different place now and maybe he should go back. His mother will not be happy if she finds out.But being here by himself makes him feel free. Ever since he was born, he's always been with his mother. As a vampire, he grew up so fast. That's why he outgrows everyone around him. He's an adult now but still wasn't able to go home.All he knows is that the werewolves are after him. That's why they ended up on the other side. But now, they are staying in the enchanted mountain. He's sick and tired of not being able to be free to go everywhere. That's why he decided to get out of there.He just watches the villagers g
The werewolves arrived at the Witch of the West where Claire, the psychic, lives. The alpha seems to like visiting her almost every day. She was able to drive the vampire child to the other side. That means that they will be trapped forever.Claire also directs Count Gregory and the grim reaper to the dark cave. It's not easy for anyone to deceive them. She was also able to send the monsters to the ghost bride so she will not talk anymore. It's a perfect plan to avoid the prophecy."Claire, my dear! Any updates about the vamps?" The alpha werewolf asks her."There's none, my love! I told you, I already sent them to their death." Claire replied and received a kiss from him."Good girl! I think that the prophecy will no longer happen now." The alpha werewolf feels satisfied.Claire smiles for him sweetly and they go inside her room. She's a good actress indeed when the vampire and grim reaper visited her. They didn't eve
I can't help but feel bad about Angel. He sacrificed himself just to save me. But it's all for nothing because I'm not on the other side anymore. Gregory told me how the rogue angels got to them. I feel guilty about it but I'm also furious. It made me want to seek revenge."Honey, stop thinking about it now. What's important is we're both alive." Gregory told me."I just can't help but to feel bad about it. If only the portal is still open, it will be safer to get there!" I replied to him.The portal must be open once again or maybe another one must be created. Why didn't I think of that? But I don't think I can create a portal. I'm a vampire but maybe another being can do it. But who could it be? Then I saw the nunos having a meeting.
Marius seems to enjoy his time on the enchanted mountain. The small people seem to also like his company. They always hang out while Earl teaches me how to control my abilities. It's not easy because I don't know what they are and how to use them.I didn't know that aside from seeing other creatures and going to the other side, I can also fight. Marius got his flames from me and I never even imagined that I can ignite anything using my mind. I have pyrokinesis which I only discovered during my stay here.Earl also convinced me to try jumping off a cliff. He told me that I'm an immortal anyway. I can't die because of gravity anymore. So, I tried it and I never thought that I could fall and stand on both feet afterward. Everything feels new to me since my vampire training was paused.
"Mary is that you?" One of the Nuno asks the moment we step near the vicinity."Yeah, it's me! Good to see you, Earl!" I excitedly greeted him."Wow, you didn't even age a bit! Being a vampire has its perks." Earl told me."It has only been a year since I visited you here with my husband." I giggled."The last time I saw you with the count was fifteen years ago," Earl informed me.I can't believe it! That's why my son is all grown up now. We have been inside the other side for just a few hours. Fifteen years had passed since then. Does it mean that the werewolves forgot about Marius? I hope that's the case but it seems like we
My grown son and I reached the foot of the mountains. I can't believe how tall he becomes in just a couple of days from the other side. It might be the effect of the place on a vampire child like him. But I have to stop feeling amazed by how he grew up so fast.I need to start finding the "Nuno sa punso" around here. Maybe they can help me save my child from the werewolf prophecy. It seems that we were able to reach our destination. I'm not sure if it's the same place. Gregory is the one who brought me here before."Mom, how much longer must we walk?" Marius is now complaining."Don't tell me you feel tired! Vampires don't feel that, Marius." I replied."Yes, vampires don't get tired but they
"Marius, take my hand! We have to get out of this place!" I screamed in panic.My son doesn't even seem to be bothered by the skeletons emerging from the lake. But I don't want to risk it. Even if we're immortal, we can still die if these creatures kill us. He did what I told him to do and I closed my eyes."Mom, what are you doing?" Marius asks in a worried tone."If I was able to bring you here, I can also get you out!" I told him and tried to concentrate.I'm not sure if this would work but I was able to get to the other side without the portal. I don't know why but I suddenly think about the Nuno sa punso. They are my friends and the last time I saw them was when Gregory took me to
"Marius, that's enough!" I called him to come closer to me.I can't let the shadowy creatures hurt my son. But where did they even come from? The ghost bride is shaking beside me now. I don't know what these creatures are trying to do. Marius walks casually towards me. He seems to just secure us before doing so."Don't worry, mother! They can't come through my flames."Marius said proudly."Thanks, sweetie! But what are these creatures?" I ask myself more than him." They are Jinns and they come to take over the other side!" The ghost bride now informed us about them."So, it means that they want this place and not u
