2024-10-29 19:42:56"I'll tell you." Jake said, "Well a child of calamity is in who is capable of causing harm and bringing great destruction upon both the humans and vampire, he is a living weapon, whose only purpose is to cause a war, these type of Vampires are called moon children, they live only in the shadows, and unlike other Vampires, they cannot come in contact with the sun otherwise great calamity would befall, but how long can one stay hidden in the shadow."
I look at them trying to make sense of what they are saying but honestly, "you're saying this child in my womb is a threat to both races, but it hasn't really done anything yet." I tell them.
"Exact, and I plan on subduing him once he's born. That's the reason I put the cur

To think they were brothers, they had zero resemblance, from looks to body stature, and even height, it was almost as if Malicay was the off sheep among the brothers, compared to them he had zero builds and was skinny, he was also pretty, I guess he looked more like their mum compared to the rest of them. I tried scanning for a single trait but there was none to match them. Compared to my dream, Malicay had blue eyes. It was difficult to believe that he was a vampire with such qualities. "Can you please stop staring at me like that, I could feel the intensity of your stares from here." Malicay's ear turned red as he was flooded with embarrassment. I should be the one who should be having that look right now. I quickly looked away, also embarrassed. The brothers couldn't help but laugh, not minding how emb

I can’t find Martha anywhere near Richard, I begin to worry as I wonder what happened to her, wasn’t she supposed to return with Richard, weren’t they supposed to return together. Without answering Richard’s question, I immediately asked mine, “where’s Martha?” As if disappointed he stares at me blankly for at least thirty seconds before answering. “I asked you a question first, Mira, your husband came home and you didn’t even care about me, and rather asked about some stranger who might not even feel the same about you.” He gasped and stepped back, but soon the disappointed look on his face changed in an instant. “Martha ould return tomorrow, she’s been tasked to an important mission and would only return after she has completed her task tomorrow. Don’t worry, I made a promise not to hu

Apparently I've been locked up in my room for almost three weeks now. All I do is wait for my breakfast, lunch and dinner to be served to me. Apart from the maid, no one was allowed to come into my room. Am growing bigger and rounder with each passing day, Richard would visit me late in the night to check on me, when I asked him why things are turning out this way he would call it a natural rapid development, then he would stay with me till I had fallen asleep. Regardless of this, I am feeling rather cooped up and each day is feeling like nothing new. In short, I am slowly falling into depression. I have come up with tons of activities that would keep me away from falling into further depression. Like taking up new hobbies, like drawing, cosplaying, reading books, and more books, I even decided to learn embroid

Hah. I never imagined that talking to someone could feel this refreshing. I feel energetic and pumped to start my day, although I am a bit upset. Richard left without uttering a word last night, he didn't even return to check on me which is unlike him. I slowly approached the door, and grabbed the handle, twisting it open and yet, another failed. It's always locked. After I moved away from the door I glanced at the wall clock. It's almost time for breakfast to be served, she should be coming in any minute now. It may seem unreasonable but I've given up on escaping, I can't outrun them, plus I'm pregnant, and there's my smell, Richard seems to have a nose for that one, so until this baby is born I can do nothing. "Your majesty, I’m coming.... what?! But I.... Oh okay." I stood up from the couch and walked towards the door, what was she talkin
The bride of the Egos' Chapter 27. He has a Mother ?
Richard stood by the door as he helped me carry my bag, which was filled with all the necessary things I would need since it was going to be a long trip. "You look tired." Behind him were the rest of the family, who gave me quite a stare. They were fond of ruining all my opportunities to have fun but not this time. "Do I? I don't think so." I quickly deny. "So there's no need to cancel our trip." Truth be told, I didn't get even a wink of sleep last night as I was too anxious, but I feel pumped about this trio,especially when he said it was going to be a two days journey, we were going to visit London this time, and that was all it took to make my day. When I told Mal about our plans, he at first was against the idea, but his opinion changed in not less than a minute. I can't wait to step out from this place.

***I wasn't sure how I was going to react or treat her as she stood waiting for me to walk right into her arms. I carried myself and walked towards her and the moment I was in the middle of both arms, she locked her arms and gently patted my back. "You have no idea how much I wanted to see you." She whispered in my ear. She released me but held onto my shoulder, "tell me, has this bastard been treating you well, does he scold you, or give you the attention you deserve, tell me if you have any problems and I shall solve it." She said with a glare directed towards Richard while he avoided her gaze. I shake my head and defend Richard but she still didn't buy it, calling him all sorts of names and raining curses on him.Although Richard didn't speak or reply to anything she said,
The bride of the Egos' Chapter 29. A Ruthless Ruler.
We started with books, they had a vast knowledge of literature, some of them could already recite the next lines of these books, so most times they would complete my sentences for me. The more I got to know them by being around them, the more I wished I could stay with them, but then I still had to see others, so I had to move quickly.After I had finished the book, the young ones applauded with excitement. I could hear the sound of Richard also applauding, he walked towards me and gave me a light kiss on my forehead. “You did well.” He said. After handing back over to their teacher, I walked straight to the next class. And just like that, I went on with my day, heading from one class to another and getting to know them a lot.Finally I was exhausted, Richard would reach from the bag and take out a bottle of water or a handkerchief to da
The bride of the Egos' Chapter 30. Richard's Past.
We had to leave at once, so we had to stop at the hotel once more so we could get all our belongings before we left. I was bothered and worried about Richard and his behavior, he just seemed so distant and difficult to approach. He did try his best so I wouldn't notice by smiling everytime our eyes met, but that wasn't enough to convince me that he was okay. "I'll go out in the car." Although that was an excuse to get away from me for a while, I could tell he needed some breathing space.I got ready, and sat on the bed for a while, thinking of how I could approach him, but for that I would at least need to know what was going on with him right? But how could I have an answer to that when he's so distant with me, it's more like he doesn't want me to know.Knock Knock!

As much as I wanted to rip him apart, I could not move and I was still in the hands of this lunatic of a woman. "Well then let's get to work." He said while staggering. He walked up to a rock that was shaped oddly like a chair and sat down. "Since her majesty now has the heir to the throne out of the way, I believe that makes her the only pure blooded Ego and rightful queen seeing that Erika over here has given up the position already. So I have played my role." He said without any sense of shame or guilt."What about her?" Richard says, I was on the brink of tears seeing that he was not moved after seeing both his children dead. I thought we could start over. I made a mistake."You monster. How could you, you killed innocent c

Gah!I woke up dripping wet from cold sweat. "She's awake." A voice says. It was my father. I looked around and found fewer people than before, the twins, Nessa and dad, but where's Malicay and Daniel, I wondered."Martha, what happened to Martha." I asked but everyone looked away, they had a troubled look and most importantly they were sad.Vanessa moved forward and signalled father to let her speak. "By the time Malicay had arrived, she was already dead. The dagger that pierced through her heart was a silver dagger, I'm sorry." Again, she died again. I can't imagine how much I owe her, for taking care of Ethan, for the shelter she gave me in my previous life, and for being by my side. I owed

Delets.The myths describe him as cunning, slippery, smart, and devious. A master of chesh and a good strategist however no one could ever figure out what his true aim and purpose ever was, he was a being who moved according to his own will, no one could understand and control him. That being I speak of had planned to ruin my family from the very beginning.He wasn't just after one child but two, on one hand it was said that Thomas would bring my mother in law the throne an on the other Ethan was said to be a sacrifice for Thomas to ascend the throne but what those two had in common was that their birthday were foretold, one to Richard and the other to the queen. In short there was no curse, just a stage set up for an event. It was a marking. This strategy was simply killing two birds wit

I was only a couple of days away from my fortieth birthday, and since the queen hadn't shown up cause she was probably waiting for my passing, everyone lowered their guards. "Yes, we'll be there immediately." I heard Richard say as he walked into my room hurriedly with a troubled expression."What's going on?" I asked, there was no way I would not be troubled seeing him pancing to and fro the room. "Where are you going ?"He rushed up to my bed and kissed me on the cheek. "Emir has found a way around Delets curse this time, Ethan and I would go there and return immediately, but don't worry I've called for more security, even from the wolves so they would be more people to protect you when I'm gone." As he stood up to leave, I grabbed him b

Although we weren't able to find out a few more things relating to the fire incident, we were more cautious in making sure the children were safe. However at the same time, my curse was slowly becoming a nightmare to my life as it slowly spread. I had only a few weeks to live as I was turning forty soon, it was most likely that I would die on my birthday.Richard has been doing a lot of thinking about it, turning me into a vampire would still not help me, as Emir herself rendered it useless. "You don't look like you've been ageing like the rest of us." Vanessa said as she helped me out of bed.I stood next to a mirror and stared at myself, she was right, I looked like nothing had changed because I kept taking Richard's blood as supplement, to think I was going to die looking this young.

I didn't expect to meet his sister as I presumed both were dead but I was wrong, Malicay wasn't going from one place to another for nothing, he was gathering clues, it was due to this that he discovered his sister's survival, Emir was also brought here, from what he said, they each had a story to tell.Erika broke it down to us in a story she discovered while hiding from her mother.Apparently it all started when the queen, Malicays' mother, had to pass her throne to her husband because she was a woman and deemed unfit. She decided to change her fate and so she came up with a strategy. After searching for answers for many years, she met with Delets and made a deal with him.'I'll give you the power you

"Dad?"It was only natural for me to be confused. Out of everyone present in this room, he should be the least that knows but not only does he know what's going on, but my sister Vanessa knew as well, how did I know? It's because her cheeks turn red whenever she's caught in a lie. "I know you are startled as well, and believe me, it came as a shock to me to find out the dark secrets of your mother's family."Mother's family. That's right, we were called Daniel's. I'm of my brother's bloodline, the box father gave me had Daniel's face on it, and in it, I found that he was a vampire hunter.In sudden realisation, I turn around and face my brother what's looks away.

Chapter 109.As I screamed and rolled, I felt many hands hold me down and I came to my senses, I’m still in my room. Am sure I went out this morning, was I really daydreaming? Cold sweat drops down my face and my body trembles each time I try to move, then a familiar voice echoes in the room. “What did you do to her this time?” It was one of the men who had arrived with Malicay last night. I couldn’t help but stare at him as I saw myself down to him, however I could not see his face properly, as my eyes felt heavy. “Answer me.” He yelled."Don't you dare yell at me, she's only suffering because of your stupid deal, or did you preharps forget, she's going to be forty this year. She has less than months to live." That was Richard's voice, I'm certain of it. But
