Everyone's having dinner together. This scene is just like before when Erin first met Julius and Serena. Nothing has changed except for one thing, Kevin's place has been taken by a new member.
Erin peeks at Megan before asking for the soup from Julius. She is sitting beside Serena who is trying to avoid Edward with all her might. Seems like she is very angry at him. Not that it's bothering Megan because she is focused on Edward's platter only.
Erin is digging holes in her when their eyes finally meet. She steals her gaze immediately and focuses on eating dinner. With shaky hands, she manages to take a big slice of meat that she already chokes on! But then she gulps it down with the water.
Erin is coughing badly. So, Serena pats her back, "There, there! Eat
“Are you sure they’re here?” Ian glares at Howard who is about to knock at Edward’s old mansion’s door. But then his hands freeze hearing Ian’s cold voice. The last time he spoke with Edward, he referred to Julius and Serena’s stay at his old mansion with Erin. Unless something has gone wrong, they should be staying here. And if they don’t then he has to search them down! Because he has no choice other than to listen to their benefactor. “We will find out…” He murmurs. Mary has been tapping her feet seeing Howard’s shaky hands knocking on the door relentlessly as if he’s at his girlfriend’s parents house and he needs to be as polite as possible. She was losing her patience since she believes that time is she herself and she’s really
"I'm sorry I failed, Countess Fiona! We lost him." Oliver is on his knees with the rest of his team in front of Fiona who has been sitting beside Rowan's unconscious body lying on the bed. He's just like that day after day without any changes as if he's nothing but a showpiece. While standing in a corner, Zion is processing the information he has got from Oliver. From what he has learnt thus far, they went on a mission to meet Edward Frost so that they could get to Aidan, the famous vampire researcher who could possibly bring Rowan back. But then the situation got out of hand and the negotiating room turned into a fight club which was an unexpected event since one of the squad members turned out to be a snake in the grass. But it doesn't change the fact that they have faced a defeat! The Count Lord's squad, which is t
Damien and Zion are talking aside before parting from one another. Even Oliver has bid the squad away, waiting for Damien in the garden near the castle. While circling in nervousness, Oliver sees him waving at him from far away. He also waves at him back. "Sorry, I'm a bit late. I was taking care of some things." Says Damien. "Oh, no! It's okay, young lord. I wasn't bothered a bit." "Am I only your young lord?" Damien asks nonchalantly which freezes Oliver. He's silently just looking at him without any argument. Damien smiles at him, "I'm not an idiot when you bat your eyes with my mother." "Neither I want to keep you in the dark." Oliver protests.
Tina is standing before Erin's house after getting the address from John as promised. Although she has had to do it overnight and not to mention not missing a single day at the office before holiday, she has somehow managed to pull everything off on her own. This is the first time she has finished her work without anybody's help. However, she felt the emptiness of Erin during these past few days more than before. So Tina rushes to her house as soon as she receives the address from her senior. She wants to know what kind of illness has caused Erin to skip office which is unlikely of her. While standing at the gate, Tina looks around her to see nobody looking at her. Because now that she is fully covered in black clothes, she looks suspicious like an assassin or a detective. As thrilling it may sound, it's not something to be happy about, of course. She might be put into jail for prying
"Here's your glass of water." You didn't need to trouble yourself, father!" Taking the glass from Nolan's hand, Tina thanks him with a slight head bow. But then she notices the grumpy look on his face. "Nolan. Call me Nolan, please." He murmurs his wish while playing with his finger. Being pampered by Venessa who has started calling him by his name and is treating him like a family, now Nolan wants for others to do the same. He roams around the church as he searches for people to call his name in a friendly manner. Unfortunately, his demands aren't fulfilled every time. This time also, Tina's blank look is speaking out loud, "You're definitely a weirdo!" However, the line gets stuck in her throat which she gulps down with the water. Neither can she speak out, nor
"The tenth blood bag." "I was stupid to not realise that she was lacking blood. TCH!" "Sometimes, we even forget her true identity. Don't be hard on yourself ", Howard pats Bill's back who is grumbling about his poor observation while looking at Lily's pale body lying on the bed. They would've lost her if they had wasted even a day more. Fortunately, they handed Kevin to Edward and could explain Lily's situation to him on time. Although it was unexpected for them to see Edward rushing Kevin to collect the blood bags, they got them sooner than they had expected. Not to mention, Bill and Howard got scolded by him for not informing him beforehand. His restless face kind of scared them, but also relieved them at the same time as they realised their hard work had paid
"Let's be practical, Aguiro! That girl will become a hurdle in our path", Diane shouts. Unfortunately she has been arguing with Aguiro since morning while he's defending Erin politely. "It's not a prophecy! She can become our ally too." He says as he stares at the ground, averting his eyes from Diane's who has been restlessly walking around the room. Despite Aguiro's earnest request for her to sit down, she completely ignored it. Because she's burning in rage in her son's foolishness. "How could you implement your powers on her?!" She asks angrily,"How could you forget that the vampires are our ENEMIES?!" Aguiro blankly stares at Diane who is playing with her fingers. She does that whenever she's worried about an issue. And this time the issue is regarding Aguiro
"You're getting the hang of it! Come with full force. Release your energy", Julius shouted at Erin, trying to inspire her since she has improved a lot in just a week. Erin is super strong and can even surpass some famous vampires like Julius and Ian. Her speed has increased by five times than normal which already defeats Edward's record. She has also shown some psychic powers where she can read faster than Julius. In just three days, she has finished all the books in the old library of Edward's house which has surprised everyone except Edward since he can understand where she's coming from. Solving everyday problems in the office has made her sharp about her surroundings and her capability of solving problems has improved a lot as the vampire blood only gives her a boost to her original physical and mental abilities.
Dracula Castle, Romania. A few days later after ending the war…The lords have gathered to discuss an important issue and that is “Who will be the next Count Lord?” Erin isn’t interested in it at all. She’s just happy to see Edward and others are fine. Even Ian has recovered from his injuries. So there’s no need to be getting involved furthermore after hearing the hateful words that are thrown at her. Moreover, some people don’t wish her to become their master. Erin glares at Raphael who can barely hold his grin. Uriel, the culprit behind this ruckus, is sitting beside him and grumbling about being chained. His punishment will be decided today. However, it doesn’t seem like he will be receiving the death penalty, thanks to certain someone. It doesn’t matter to Erin. Although she agrees with the fact that Uriel is the reason behind the war, she can’t shake off the feeling that her very existence is also a threat to the whole community. That’s why she has made up her mind! "My decis
-Howard’s dead! Do you realise what it means? He’s no longer with us! Will you take responsibility for him?... This! THIS WASN’T OUR FIGHT, TO BEGIN WITH! Why do we have to suffer? A man shouts in anger before he bursts into crying. Obviously, he’s frustrated as much as he’s sad about losing someone important to him. He wishes to keep complaining, but his words are getting stuck in his throat. Some comforting voices float around the air and make their way to Erin’s ears. She doesn’t know for how long she has been sleeping, but it feels like ages now that her muscles are sore. Although she can barely open her eyes, she tries to find out the owner of that angry voice. However, she fails repeatedly and gives up in the end. -Bill is right! We’re dragged into this mess when we aren’t supposed to be involved. A girl’s voice! It’s familiar and yet distant all of a sudden. Not long ago, this person was the one who stood up for Erin! Then…why is it sounding strange to her? After all, what’s
"Le..let me..GO!""Fufufu! How does it feel to get crushed on? Is it amusing?" Rowan, who is now possessed by Orus, gets closer to Erin's face which has turned red since she can't breathe. While trying her best to escape from his grip, Erin has no choice but to listen to his nonsense.Surprisingly, Rowan stops talking all of a sudden and keeps observing her before saying, "So weak! Can't think of a reason why you were chosen to bear the 'Dragon's fate'. So pitiful for someone who upholds both the power of God and the Devil. Tch!" "What's this stupid demon talking about?" Erin isn’t insane to wonder about such lousy conversation while her lifeline is about to get cut. She keeps thinking of a way to get out but finds none. Only the crazy laughter of Rowan rings in her ears as he exclaims in joy, "I'm feeling so good right now!" His grip becomes tighter than before as he sniffs Erin's neck in a swoop. "Delish!" "I sa...id...Fuck Off!" "SHHH!!!! Tch! Ahh...my ears! Can't you scream a
"Do you think they can handle it?" "You worry a lot, old man. Relax! Master can finish the enemy with one blow!" "If it was that easy, I wouldn't have worried about it." "Sheesh! It's hard to ensure you. Well, we'll see that for later. For now, I've to take you to a safe place. Otherwise, the master will kill me!" Bill runs faster towards the heart of the forest. Soon the battle ground vanishes from Julius's eyes as he looks back to monitor the situation and yet the sound of clashing swords isn't disappearing. As if the whole world is bearing witness to today's incident. Julius couldn't help it when he was forced to leave Edward's side. Rowan inflicted a heavy injury on him which almost caused him to faint due to loss of blood. The terror in Edward's eyes is unforgettable! Even his men were terrorized. Rowan was extremely powerful as if the news of him being sick was nothing but a nonsense spouted as a joke. His physical strength was surpassing the whole clan. It was nothing li
"This is getting out of hand!""We should lure them towards the open field. The training ground is narrow enough to make moving hard for us.""But what to do about this rapid fire?!" Ario shouts in irritation. He can barely block the bullets with a thin shield and yet he's trying his best. The two other men are also struggling. Erin can't blame them when she isn’t even in shape to fight anymore. Rather, she says, "I've got an idea. Let's split! One party will distract them while the other makes a run for the field."After a small pause, Ario replies with a soft nod, "Sounds great to me. I'll help you to climb.""No, wait!" Erin disrupts Ario who is about to pick her up and suggests, pointing at the two men, "Let them move before us."The two men seem bewildered. However, there's no time to spare in argument. They both agree immediately and make a long jump for the roof while Ario and Erin are backing them up. The enemies are trying to corner them more than before. Due to the lack of
"Lan! Is there any way where I can kill Orus without harming him?" "Not that it's impossible, but you’re not capable of pulling that off yet." "Meaning?" "Simple! Without the help of Mandira, you can't do it." Erin recalls her time when she was stuck in that endless world. Among those seven dragons, Mandira was the one who didn’t have any kind of supernatural power that could be seen and yet her power surpassed others. She's a dragon who uses her powers through tarot cards. It may seem funny but she has the ability to see the opposite side of her cards and pull out a suitable one. Her dragon powers are installed in those cards, so she can make wishes come true by using them. Erin had the opportunity to witness her power. Unlike Orus or other people who can manipulate someone with the help of words or other means, Mandira is unable to do that. When she learnt that her powers didn’t have any physical form, she tried the tarot cards as an easy means. Her mother was a gypsy and she u
“Whoa, what’s that?” “Is that Lord Uriel? Why’s he flying?!” “Don’t tell me! After Master Rowan, now another legend?” “Unlike the master, his wings are so black and shiny. Just like a bat. Isn’t that gorgeous?” “Yeah! But, doesn’t he look kind of different than usual? Is he the one who just broke the underground dungeon where that woman is kept?” “You bet!” “What could he be doing there?” “Don’t know, but…Something doesn’t feel right.” The castle guards are fussing
"My lord, you should leave now. There's a hidden door behind the second staircase which will lead you to the secret dungeon." Oliver whispers to Edward while fighting nearby. He further assures, "We'll be watching your back. So, hurry!" Edward grins at him. Taking his last line as a joke, he says, "Rather watching my back, you should hold your men at first. You look like you’re struggling quite a bit here to need my men's support." Oliver can't believe Edward acting arrogantly when someone's life's in jeopardy. He remembers a saying, "Arrogance and ignorance go hand in hand" and it truly applies to him. Unfortunately, he can't say it to his face! Composing himself, Oliver politely replies to Edward, "My lord, you’re right. I'm unworthy and that's why I need some time to strengthen the bond between me and my men. Would you kindly
“Where did I keep it?”“Hurry up, Oliver!!”“Can’t you shut your mouth for a while?”“TCH!”Keeping the door slightly open, Ario gets out of the room to guard it. Thankfully, everyone is busy discussing the rare vampire that they don’t have the time in hand to look after the castle. The rummaging sound through the papers is irritating Ario, but he can’t make a sound while Oliver is busy looking for the documents. They’re from Willow who is known as Uriel’s informer. Or maybe was! He’s missing since Oliver left the castle, not even a trace of his dead body!It’s surpris
