I made it back to the study, faintly keeping in mind that Yuuki was avoiding me. It didn't matter, I'd deal with her a little later. Luke sits in a corner staring out the windows, a frown etched into his face. He doesn't move to acknowledge my presence when I enter, so I take the liberty of going to see him instead.

"You look perplexed"

"That's a small word in comparison to how I feel about what you have divulged"

"Is it really such a nuisance to you?"

His head swivels to the side, to regard me thoroughly.

"Forgive me if I'm not enamored with what you've said, but have you taken into account the prospects of what this could mean for us?"

"There's nothing we can do about that"

He sighs, scratching his head.

"You say she's sleeping. How do you even know this?"

My gaze stills on the way of a daisy momentarily, thinking back at what happened between Yuuki and me just days ago. I had my suspicions, rooting primarily on that diary I found and then the fact that I couldn't be mated to a human

  • The Vampire's Blind Mate   Yuuki

    There was no way.There just could be no way I was his mate.It's too ridiculous.It's a farce. Aiden's mind games.Just another one of his mind games.But then again there was no humor in his eyes.There is really never if any humor in his eyes. But....Why am I even trying to rationalize this?If I was his mate what was Belle?I couldn't, I couldn't betray my sister's memory like that.They were enagaged to be married. He claimed to have loved her. Hated my very presence because it reminded me of her. Blinded me, threatened to kill me and then suddenly I was his beloved? I would never betray my sister.Or Thomas for that matter. He was the only man I loved. Would ever love.My mind moves back to my sister like a scratched recorder.He....he was the one who murderer Belle, he killed her....why?I hurried across the staircase, with no real destination confused and forlorn and on edge. As I hurried down the steps, I remember missing one before my vision went blank.You're my mateI

  • The Vampire's Blind Mate   HIS

    I can’t.I can’t hurt him. The blade of the dagger sits against his chest but I can’t find the strength to embed it into his chest. I want to and God knows I’m trying but I just can’t. My hands won’t move further. I toss it away, screaming as I curl in on to myself questioning my sanity. Screaming for the life of me because I didn’t know what was real anymore. Aiden comes over to hold me and I let him, because what was the sense of fighting anymore? I can’t kill him and yet my heart feels as if it won’t ever heal. “What am I truly? Tell me.”“You’re one of us. Always have been.” He answers.Aiden picks me up effortlessly, placing me against the bed and I stare out into the abyss more or less still rooted into reality. It’s cold outside, the crispy wind billowing into the curtains that flap about endlessly without an anchor. My tears still fall, pouring like untamed waters that knew no ending and I shiver at the thought of never having a sane thought ever again.“Yuuki-”Aiden gra

  • The Vampire's Blind Mate   HIS (II)

    Why would I ever think that Belle would ever do that? Belle had everything she needed, even if life’s circumstances might have shifted a little. Aiden seemed to have leaned into every whim that she had tossed his way, notwithstanding Hayden’s grave distaste for her presence but why? I couldn’t think of anything that could lead her down that road.“The dagger that I gave to you, was hers. It's an artifact. A tool made to take a vampire's life indefinitely given that we are immortal creatures.”“She wanted to kill you, why would Belle?”“Not Belle. Your father. Belle took her life to save mine.”“But you could have saved her.”“She was already gone when I got here.” He turns his back to me. “If Belle had confided in me about what her parents required of her, I could have saved her.”“But you made all the humans think you killed her, Aiden why?”“Because it was easier for them to see me as a monster. Who would believe Belle would take her life instead of mine?” He takes my hand in his on

  • The Vampire's Blind Mate   Home

    Everyone is still shocked over the idea of all the vampires ever leaving. Apparently, their plan was only to be here for a while and not exactly settle. But wherever they were, their subjects would most likely follow. I stand on the threshold of the door looking out, most of the humans gathered in the yard. Harry’s funeral will be held later today, the thought is rather ominous hanging over the house. That was the last memory they would ever have of Aiden. Maria is distraught over the fact over me leaving with them, I haven’t the heart to tell them it was for the best or the fact that I was one of them now- or will be soon. At this point, I think it was best to rid them of some of the guilt that would hang on their shoulders. They were already aware Aiden wouldn’t have left me behind so easily.The train ride to the house is long and dreary. There’s fog everywhere, completely obscuring our vision and I grow impatient and nauseous the more we move. Hayden is fast asleep beside me in

  • The Vampire's Blind Mate   A Moment In Time

    When I awake the sky is inked in obsidian blue, only the twinkling of the stars, the only illumination of the night. The house is quiet, I would have liked to believe it would have been even a bit more lively to crypt of silence that has always accompanied our previous home. Aiden is still asleep, I realise sitting up, his eyebrows furrowed as if dreaming up a nightmare, I want to reach out and soothe him, but I fight against the better inclinations, and give into the excuse of food when my stomach rumbles horribly.Right, I haven’t had anything to eat since lunch this afternoon.I slip through the door, leaving it slightly ajar so as not to wake him before silently rushing down the winding corridor, hoping I at least won’t run into any enemies before finding the kitchen. I spy maids dusting and cleaning, carrying out their duties while I scurry around like a cockroach unwilling to be found. There’s a light on I find when I venture down the hall, the door slightly ajar. My hands ball

  • The Vampire's Blind Mate   Glimmer

    Hayden leaves me, going to stand against the floor to ceiling, his glass of blood to his lips as he gazes on the outside, his mind lost in the wind. Now that I’m in their niche or nest, I find a different side to them. Not necessarily May, for some reason she’s always so angry. I don’t get why she doesn’t just admit to Aiden her feelings and move on. As for Amy, it’s clear she has reached her limit with them. Everyone here has something important to them all of which, in one way or the other I find myself longing for. Ties, bonds, friendship and family. I wish I had all or even some of it. You might argue that I have Aiden- I don’t. I have a semblance of what would be a family. What they hope might be the future, but that might not be what I want. And my Grandfather- he’s just another puzzle piece that doesn’t make sense. Where was he when father locked me away or Micah for that matter. Could I even trust them?“It’s eerie that it seems nothing has changed all these centuries that w

  • The Vampire's Blind Mate   First Step

    AIDENMy brother thankfully makes it in time before Yuuki manages to fly away, though if I’m being honest, I would have liked a few moments to compose myself before having to brief everyone about my findings. Water beneath the bridge I suppose. Aunt Aria and Luke take the seats across from my desk, while my brother stands to the side, yawning. May enters soon after, her expression bothered as she shrinks into her seat across from Yuuki. I sigh, not much I can do right now, I’ll have to leave my intrusive thoughts for later. “I figured out the code.” I announce, Luke's peaceful composure breaking into astonishment.“What?!” They ask in unison.“As I said.”“So what is it then?” Hayden enquiries lifting his eyes from examining his nails. A habit he tends to do a lot.“I’m not sure exactly. It wasn’t as clear cut as I expected it to be,” I confess.My brother’s expression morphed into annoyance and he yelled pointing his finger at me.“Then why the hell would you lead with that then, y

  • The Vampire's Blind Mate   Compromise

    Yuuki rushes out quickly as soon as she realised she could leave and I’m left with my brother and May. She’s lost in thought until she realises, we’re the only one’s left, or it could have been the intimidating aura that my dear little brother was giving off. “I….I….should go.” May stammers, attempting to leave when my brother grabs her hand.“Hey May,” He says chirply. “Why the rush, come on, it’s been awhile since you’ve chatted with your cousins, right?”“Now..now is….now is not a great time for jokes, Hayden. Besides, we have work to do.”“Come on, don't be like that. Brother is here.”Her face flushes as she glances at me. “Really, I have to help my mom prepare for this ball. Lot’s of invitations to send out.” She says eagerly.“Make sure Amy gets one too, alright.”May stiffens at my brother’s words, her head turning stiffly to regard him.“Amy?”“Yeah. I haven’t seen her around lately. Though I’m pretty sure it could be me since all vampires came back right?”“Right. She just
