2024-10-29 19:42:56Chapter 41- Merrick POV
Tonight, I am following Fulton and Talvin’s leads. I have no idea who Lawler truly is, only that I can trust him. Fulton said we would hug him and that we were to follow suit, so I plan on doing just that.
I have just hugged a man I have never met in my life, and surprisingly it was nice. I felt safe and at home. It wasn’t a difficult thing to do or even a forced feeling. So, in other words, nothing like trying to hug my own narcissistic father, which is forced, awkward and uncomfortable.
I watch as Mom steps forward to hug Lawler. I know she is only doing it because we bet her, and she doesn’t want to lose that bet. I thought it would make me feel uncomfortable seeing her hug another man seeing as we just learned about our father a few hours ago, but something else eased me instead. She looke

Chapter 42- Talvin POV “What was that?” Merrick questions as he walks up behind me. “Oh, just thinking that this will be my home.” I lie. I cannot let him think that I want to take the position of king someday. I never felt that I would wish to do the task in all the time I had been here, but today, knowing everything that I do and how I would do anything for my family and the people of the Kingdom, I feel different. Something feels new within my soul. “Tal, are you coming, or are you going to sit there and daydream all day?” Fulton calls from the path. “Coming,” I call as I run to catch up. When did they walk past me? I question myself. Arriving at the clearing, we find a group of teen vampires our ages. “Hey, everyone!” Merrick calls out to them. As we walk to the area where the fire will be, Merrick walks off with the older t
The Vampire Kingdom Chapter 42- Talvin
Talvin POVTonight with Lawler and Mom was beyond anything I could have dreamed of having. I never thought I would have two people who cared for me so profoundly within the same room and getting along. I also never thought I would be back here so soon, and what’s more, I want to be here with my family. Choosing my room was easy. I had always envisioned myself belonging to the last window on the right on the third floor; I just never understood why. I knew it was my room before I even looked out the window and remembered the intense feeling. “Is this your room?” Fulton’s voice flutters to the window. “It is so weird. Whenever I came here, I always felt drawn to this room. Like it was mine or something.” “You have been in this room before?” “No, it was the window when I was looking at the house from the beach. Apart deep down inside of me, I just felt like it was my room, and one day I would claim it, which was an odd
The Vampire Kingdom Chapter 44- Talvin
44- Talvin POV The fire is a fantastic size, much like the love that I know Mom and Lawler have for one another. Looking to where Sydney stands, I allow my mind to drift to what she said about me being a vampire. A few things make me question if I am human or not, but are they enough to consider me a vampire? I don’t recall ever needing a transplant of any kind that would have proven my DNA, not for one parent or another, nor do I think I am adopted. I have seen my birth certificate before, and everything seems to be expected. My thoughts come to a drastic halt as Hildi from the local coffee shop comes out with a platter of coffee, and I am immediately drawn to her. “Good evening, my dears.” She announces, hugging the three of us tightly. “It is so good to see you again, young man.” She reveals when she gets to me. “It is goo

Talvin POVTurning my attention back to Leon, I ask him, “What would you want in exchange?” “I want you to join my team in training.” I am not expecting his words when he speaks, and it leaves me briefly confused. “Your team in training? Training for what?” “You need training if you are going to live in our world. I want to be sure that you have the training you will need to protect yourself. I am not asking you to join us in any work-related measures unless you choose to do so of your own free will. I want to be your trainer.” “Sounds like a fair trade. You would get the best of both worlds. Works out in your favor.” Looking into Sydney’s eyes, I can feel that her words are valid. I need training if I am to be in this world.The small amount that he has taught me previously helped me in many instances. The amount of training he offers would give me more than the training I need to live her

Chapter 46- Talvin POVHildi’s shop is overflowing with Vampires coming to get more of her magical coffee. “Oh, Talvin! Come over here, son!” She beckons me from behind the counter. “I have a box of treats in the back that I would love for you to bring out for tonight.” “Ok, what are they?” I ask as we follow her. “Wait until you see! She squeals with excitement.“Here we are, dears.” Sitting on the desk is a box with a beautiful red cake that resembles a wedding cake. Alongside it in multiple other boxes holds cupcakes. “I know it isn’t much, but your mom is human, and this is as close as I can go to your traditions while keeping ours. We will need to bring these to the main table if we can?” “Oh, these are beautiful! This cake looks similar to the Mark cake that was at my cousin's party.” “Oh yes, dear, they received their cake from me. It is such an honor to gift a young
The Vampire Kingdom Chapter 47- Sydney
Chapter 47- Sydney POVTalvin asked about my younger years when I was spunky. Those years were filled with fun times until they weren’t. How do I tell him all of this? How do I say to a person I just met about how I am the reason for a law that makes you have a permit? Then it hit me. Like a bandage, just rip it off. The sooner he knows my deepest darkest secret, the sooner he will forgive me for it. “Come here,” I announce to him when he tries to apologize. Pulling him to a secluded area, I take a deep breath and send up a silent prayer to anyone god who is listening. “Oh please, whoever is listening. Would you please help him forgive me? I don’t know what you would want in return, but please let him forgive me.” I plead into the unknown. Not knowing where to start, I allow myself to launch into it. “The law about fires and the penalty being death, that is my

Chapter 48- Elnora POV “Sir. You must be wondering where the boys are.” I listen to Sabastian speak with Lawler. “Where are they?” Lawler’s voice is on edge. A smile creeps onto the face of Sabastian before he claps his hands. At the sound of his hands clapping, hundreds of cheering vampires surround us, with my boy’s front and center. “Surprise! Congratulations!” My boys call over the vampires. “What is this?” I ask, hugging them, knowing that they are safe. “This is your welcome home party.” “My what?” I ask, looking to Lawler. “Sneaky boys, very sneaky.” Lawler laughs then ruffles Fulton’s hair. “You did all of this for me?” I ask again. “Well, for both of you. Our Kingdom is now whole once again. It is a welcome home and a Congratulations party all in one.” I listen as a young girl standing nex
The Vampire Kingdom Chapter 49- Elnora
Chapter 49- Elnora POV I allowed Lawler to carry me back to the house. My fear for Sabastian has given me the shakes, and he needed the information that I hold as much as I needed the information under the floorboard. “OK, what is going on?” Lawler asks me as we enter the sitting room. “Our room,” I call back as I take off at a run to my closet. Lawler is at my side the entire way. As we enter the room, I toss my coat onto the bed and move to the closet. “He was in my head!” I call out to Lawler. “Who?” He asks, following me into the closet. “Sabastian. He was in my head. I could hear his voice. He isn’t ok. I knew something was wrong.” I am out of breath as I pull a rack of clothing from the back corner of the wall. “What did he say?” “He said.” Stopping to look at the fl

Chapter 171- Elnora POV Everyone has taken their seats and turned their attention to us. “We have learned within our Kingdom that for every problem we have, there is a silver lining. Once again, our King and Queen prevailed, and with their victory, we gained a new King and Queen in training. A gift to our Kingdom that we all thank you for granting to us.” Sabastian bows to all of us before continuing. “When Lawler began seeing you, Elnora, in the human world during the cover of night, he started changing for the better. He started becoming the King he had always wanted to become. Then when you entered our world and completed your mark, you granted him the strength needed to be the best version of King he could be. A gift he has granted your son and our future King. It is my honor to welcome you into our Kingdom not only as our Queen and friend but as the wife of my best friend.” &nbs

Chapter 170- Elnora POV Blow after blow; we watch as the pair of them struggle. "How is he still standing?" I link with Harmony. "Magic, they have witches on his side that are keeping his strength up.” "Can we break it?" I beg. "No, not unless we find the witches and the magic is not coming from here." Harmony sounds defeated. "I cannot live on without him.” "You will have to, for your children." Harmony moves to my side and takes my hand as we watch in horror. Lawler is beginning to lose, and I have had enough. How can I stop this? I ask myself. We watch as his father lifts his hand one last time, and as he does, I know this will be the blow that knocks Lawler unconscious. "STOP!" Tavin demands as he walks forward. My attention doesn't leave Lawler and his position, but the command stops the blow. "You are to remove yourself from his bo

Chapter 169- Elnora POV My spell is working. Lawler has a bloody nose as he stands, but nothing more. On the other hand, his father is bleeding profusely and has a broken nose. “What did you do?” He calls out. “I did nothing,” Lawler responds to him. His father struggles to his feet, and when he finally makes it, he throws another punch into Lawler’s stomach. I watch in amazement as Lawler hardly flinches and his father withers on the ground in pain. “Just toss him in the dungeon, and we will deal with him another day.” I request. “Stay back.” Sabastian pulls me from my waist backward towards the beach. I can see what he sees from this position, and people surround us we do not know. I lock eyes with Sabastian, and he nods his head. I look to Talvin and link with him first. “I am calling in back up; tu

Chapter 168- Elnora POV “You look beautiful,” Merrick announces as he enters the room and sees me standing on the dressing platform. “Thank you.” He offers his hand for me to step down after the last adjustment to my dress is made, and I take it. “Really, you are glowing. I am so happy for you.” He states as he walks with me to the door. “Are you sure you boys are ok with me getting married?” I ask him. “Mom, he already adopted us, and we took his last name. We signed off on that paper. Of course, we are ok with you getting married. Finally, we will all have the same last name again. You are the only odd man out.” He pokes fun at me. “I don’t want to upset any of you.” “This has been the best five years anyone could have ever asked for. Trust me, and we are all here for you. If you need me to make a distraction today, just say the word bab

Chapter 167- Elnora POV Vampires can drink a lot before feeling even the slightest buzz from consumption. Today, I am saying prayers to the porcelain gods of Harmony’s guest bathroom, or should I say my room at her house. I feel horrible. My bachelorette party was the best party I have ever been to in my life. Even the creatures that were invited had a blast and drank with us. A soft knock sounds on the bathroom door. “No one is home.” I joke. “I have some tea that will help you feel better,” Sydney calls softly. “Come in.” Granting her access, I wipe my mouth and sit on the floor. “Feeling pretty bad, I see.” “Yeah.” “Harmony said this tea will help you feel better.” “Will it, though?” I ask as I take it from her hands. “She made me some, and I feel completely norma

Chapter 166- Elnora POV Relief. That is the feeling that consumes me when Lawler announces that his father is alive. His face looks horrified and like he is waiting for me to bolt at any moment, but instead, I move to him and sit in his lap. “Oh, Lawler.” I hug him tightly. “I know you are angry.” He begins. “No, I am not. I am relieved more than you will ever know. This is honestly not even close to the things that I was thinking. This is the lesser of the evils that had gone through my mind. I wish you would have told me sooner so I could tell you.” “Tell me what?” “We had your fathers’ blood. We have put a barrier up in our Kingdom, and along with the portals for all the Kingdoms, he cannot get in. There is no way he will ever get you here.” “Spells can be broken.”“They can, but they are pretty good spells. We also have backup p
The Vampire Kingdom Chapter 165- Elnora
Chapter 165- Elnora POV Lawler has been distant this week. Not in the mental sense; when he is with me, he is with me entirely. Communication is on point, and he makes sure all of my needs are met, but physically, he is distant. Theo insists that he is working on something, and everything is fine. I know better, though; I can feel it deep down in my soul that something is off. Something has presented itself, and he is trying to handle it without me knowing. I have considered that it was information on Brogan, but Leon comes to me every day after he scouts with any information he has or doesn’t have. Looking out over the ocean from our balcony, I drink my tea in peace. I finally switched from coffee a few years ago when Tiffany insisted I learn the difference in taste and smell in herbs so that I would never fall prey to someone trying to drug me. Over the
The Vampire Kingdom Chapter 164- Lawler
Chapter 164- Lawler POV For five years, I have searched for proof that my father was alive or dead, never to find a whisper of the truth. Now I find out that he is alive and coming for me just as I have something important happening in my life. “Do you know when?” I ask as I rub the irritation from my face. “By the next full moon.” He replies. The full moon was the night before last; I have about a month. I begin to calculate what needs to be done before anything happens. “What do you know of the puddle?” I ask standing, producing the blade of grass. “Oh, right. About that.” He stutters. “Touch it.” I insist. “You already know your answer.” He counters. “I need to see for myself.” Holding it closer to him, I watch as he picks it up and peals it apart. Nothing happens; he is the
