Should I stick with Rafael's point of view or switch to Astrid's? I have both ready, and I had planned to write Astrid's POV next, but I can easily switch the chapter if that's what you all want. And no you can't ask for both. *Lol* I am writing these chapters in advance to save them up for this month's end which has something important for me coming up. I will let you know then. Stay tuned ... I love you all<3

24. Daddy Dearest Rafael's POV "Sir, where to?" Bryan inquired. "It's time that we have a talk with Daddy dearest" I answered. "Are we going to see Elliot Delmar?" he asked. "Bryan, stop asking silly questions and spoiling my mood." I said this while giving him a bored look. "Oh, okay," he said with a Cheshire cat grin. "Did you send Eva to Astrid's help?" I questioned him, almost forgetting that I had urged my sister to go and comfort Astrid. I still need to explain everything to Eva later; otherwise, she won't let me breathe. I already have a feeling she will have all the information from Astrid till I return since she is really good at starting conversations, and I think she and Astrid will get along pretty well and might wind up becoming friends. Yes, I spoke about Astrid to Eva; she, being the most beautiful sister she is, may have already begun her mission. "I can't believe Eva is your sister; she's so beautiful." Bryan commented. I jabbed him in the side with my elbow.

26. sister's bonding This chapter is dedicated to ORIANJUSTIN HOYALS .Thank you for your support Astrid's POV:"Hello, my name is Eva, and you're Astrid, right?" she said as she extended her hand to me.I was still clutching the quilt, unsure what would happen if I let it go. I kept staring at her, unsure whether to accept her hand or not. I didn't want to offend her; if she was close to him, harm might befall me. Eventually, I gripped the quilt with one hand and extended the other."Hey," I said, and she smiled back at me."Oh my god, you are so gorgeous; no surprise, my brother has been smitten with you since the first time he saw you." She hugged me."B-B- Brother?" I frowned."Yes, Rafael is my brother, the real one." I don't know much about vampires other than the fact that they are territorial and aggressive.She appeared to be kind and sweet. If she despised me, she would have started being mean to me by now, and if she intended to harm me, she could have easily done so by no

28. Patience and Understanding This chapter is dedicated to DIVIADIAMOND. Thank you for your support. Rafael's POV: I hurriedly moved away as she opened her eyes. She met my gaze, smiled, and turned away in her sleepy state. I returned to my place, rearranging myself uncomfortably on the couch. I'm willing to go to any extent for that smile, and sleeping on the sofa is nothing compared to the lengths I'm willing to go. I dozed off while glancing at her lovely face. I sat up again when I heard Astrid gasp. Sweating profusely, she moved around in her spot. "No... no," she said, taking a defensive stance. "Leave me alone; I don't want to go anywhere with you guys," she said, shaking. I dashed over to her. "Astrid... Astrid," I said, but she didn't answer. Unsure if I should shake her to wake her up, I hesitated. "Mom, leave me alone; I don't want to get into this." I realized what she was having a nightmare about. "Astr... Astrid, wake up; you are alright." I shook her and tugged

30. Mate's Blood This chapter is dedicated to MERCY UWAIFO. Thank you for your support. Rafael's POV: I was taken aback by what Astrid had just said. I thought I was hearing things. In any case, her words brought immense joy to my heart. 'Your Queen,' she really said.She is, indeed, my queen. I can die if she asks me to. "What did you say?" I asked once more."Yes, you wanted me to come with you and tell you that I am your mate or queen, right? I don't recall the exact words, but you asked either of them if I'm not mistaken," she responded.I had asked her to assist me in informing everyone that I had found my mate, but I had no idea she would accept so easily.Overwhelmed with joy, I couldn't contain myself and embraced her in a bone-crushing hug. Bryan and Eva laughed, but my attention shifted when Astrid winced.I backed away, assuming I had hurt her or that my unexpected move had made her uncomfortable, but she was clutching her bleeding forearm.I softly took her hand in mine
