~ RUBY INGRID ~My eyes flattered open and I was all alone inside our room. I am fully covered with a much more comfortable and loose shirt unlike what I was wearing after our make love with Keigan. Stretching my arms and legs, I was ready to change my clothes for the formal dinner when the door of the room quietly open, revealing Keigan who was carrying Cassius with him.“Mimi! Mimi!“ The little boys hand was trying to reach me but my mouth just gape open, trying to convey what I heard.“What?“ I asked, still not taking him from Keigan’s arms. “Since when did he start saying that word?“ Cassius is a really active child. Compared to his siblings he was always the first one to do things. “Before we came here. I just told him that we’ll fetch you for dinner because pur guests are already arriving. Then he said mimi, he’s growing too fast, hmm?“ They both approached me and that’s when Cassius finally get a grip of my shoulder. He transferred from his daddy’s arms to mine and I to
~ RUBY INGRID ~“Sage Ambrosia, thank you for accepting our invitation. And so to you, our royal Vecna.“ Mama Kyla greeted the guests.Victoria and Sage came together while Annaliese and Kenji also came with each other’s presence. I was all smiles sitting beside Keigan, our children were scattered everywhere because everyone wants to hold them, even Victoria was fighting her way for the triplets and now they were holding Cauis.“It’s an honor to be here, Queen of Acheron’s.“ Sage greeted back with a lovely smile, the Ambrosia’s and Acheron’s seems to be alright with each other and thus the dinner has finally started.It was a peaceful dinner for me since three of our kids were in different people, Celeste was charming Keizer and Jewel, plus, Keizer wanted to introduce Jewel to our kids and starting with Celeste since the two boys are pretty aggressive. Mama Kyla said that it’s because they’re starting to smell, and Jewel is a full blooded human, good thing that she doesn’t look u
~ RUBY INGRID ~The night mist’s in the air, the vast sky filled with stars and the gently swaying leaves on the trees from outside the mansion touched my bare shoulder.I totally forgot why I’m outside the Acheron’s mansion, the last thing I remembered was me, laying beside Keigan and feeling his body’s warmth. But then I woke up to my consciousness, totally unaware of what I have done. “Keigan?“ I called in weak voice but the hustling of the wind made it unheard. “What’s going on?“ Stoll lost in my rational state, my plan to go back inside the house was ruined when a shadow from the woods suddenly appeared.It looks like a woman carrying a little baby in her arms, I walk closely, squinting my eyes and trying to see if they somehow needed my help or they’re just a mere passerby from the Acheron’s town. My little steps didn’t made any sounds but another step have made, the woman’s eyes finally stared into me. Her burning red eyes looked at me as if wanting me to see the pit of b
~ KEIGAN ACHERON ~With a heavy breath and tired body, I went out of my parents house, my children was sleeping with them for the past weeks until Ruby comes back to her usual self. Amber bid her goodbye and told her that she’ll be staying at their mansion while Keddrick couldn’t go with her because he promised me that he’ll stay guarded if ever someone tried to get Celeste. What Amber told us wasn’t clear, she told us that she don’t know the real story and the reason why she have to stay at their mansion, because she’s continuously looking for her mother’s diary. She also wants to save her sister.Opening the door, the first thing that came to my view was Ruby. Like what she does for the past days, she’s looking outside of the window. Her fingers were fidgeting on her lap while a lone tear keeps escaping her eyes. My heart broke seeing her like this but I don’t know how to save her.. she won’t tell me what’s going on. “Love,“ my voice broke as a batch of tears threatened to ge
~ KEIGAN ACHERON ~“Where are we heading to?“ I watch when Amber readied her bow and arrow, it was still dark outside. The thick mist made the way too hard for us to see.“Just watch out for something, we don’t know what’s beyond this huge trees.“ This place was already out of our territory. Imagine how wide the woods could be that most is still covered with mystery.Just like what she said, I followed her but still guarded, I took my thoughts out of worry to Ruby and our children because I know for sure that all of them are safe. “Shhh,“ I almost jolt in surprise when I accidentally bumped into Amber’s back, she shushed me off and when I look to where she was looking, my eyes found a huge house.. no, it was more like a castle. Much bigger from the Acheron’s mansion. “He’s here.“ She mumbled under her breath.She slid her arrow back but I stepped in front of her when I felt some movements inside that house. “Who are we looking for, Amber?“ Hearing the word he made me bitter. Ju
~ RUBY INGRID ~She let out an uncontrolled laugh, her fangs were showing at the same time as her reddish eyes stroke me of her power. “The blood of the Vecna will be ours and we will be the most powerful vampire alive. We will rule the whole clan and slave the humans under our control.“ Their was persistence and forcefulness in her voice which I used not to believe. “What can you do know that everything is going to plans?“The time when she stepped back for the last time, her back hit the wall and there was no room for her to play more. “I am not a queen for nothing, couz. You and Amber might be underestimating me too much for I was unable to transform into a vampire... But I’ll show you how real queens behave, with or without prowess.“ I pushed her out of the way and went out of the room.She followed from the back, acting normal as she forced to stop me from meeting the others but when we’re finally at the Living area, her eyes became soft and teary. Her other hand was limpin
~ THIRD PERSON’S POINT OF VIEW ~Under the full moon and howling sounds of the midnight wind, the people inside the Acheron’s mansion kept on stopping Ruby from getting her kids from them, while the real culprit was silently and comfortably watching with a facade of hurt and worried lady.“I told you! Annaliese and Amber are going against me! They’re going to take my kids away from me!“ Ruby almost burst with emotions. As a mother, just thinking of it was already hurting her so as much as possible, she would do everything just to save them and keep them warm in her arms.“Ruby, what are you saying!? They are the who’s saving you from the witche’s curse! Stop blaming anyone.“ It was Keddrick who was worried of Amber, he doesn’t like the sound of Ruby telling the truth because even him, don’t know the hidden desire under the good facade of his damphir, Amber.“They are not, Keddrick! Keigan is in danger with Amber! And now Keizer and Celeste is in great danger!“ She badly wanted to p
~ KEIGAN ACHERON ~“And now is the right time for payment.“ As I said that, it was the signal before I attacked the priest, letting my brothers take care of those woman and the wolves to take care of those bloodsuckers. “Run upstairs!“ I shouted to Ruby and mom as they were carrying the kids.We need to hurry before the sun comes up, I trust Keizer so much that he won’t let anything bad happen to my daughter. He’s strong enough, he’s mischievous and wicked and he’s the Acheron’s warrior.I groaned when the priest hit me on the back where my wounds are still fresh from being slashed. Sage was behind him so I gave him the signal to attack the priest from the back while I attack on the front. Taking a sharp twig of tree, I stab him on the shoulder while Sage did the same at his back. Though what happened feels like a tickle to him for he didn’t even groan in pain.“What the fuck is this shit!? He’s the real definition of a demon.“ Sage cursed under his breath and I was thinking the
