Damien I have had Victoria help me prepare some breakfast for Clara because I sincerely have no idea where to begin from. I lay it out on the small table in the kitchen and wait for her to come down the stairs. She should be done washing up by now. Could she have gotten lost on her way downstairs? I know there are many rooms and corridors on the way from my room but she should be able to find her way downstairs. I wonder if I should go and get her. "Do you think she will be able to find her way down here?" Victoria asks me while clearing the kitchen counter. "I hope so," I reply and she rolls her eyes. "Maybe you should go and check on her," she suggests. "I was thinking the same thing, but let her be. There is no better way of getting used to a place other than getting lost," I say. "You are such a cold-ass lover. I pity her," she says with a smirk. "She hasn't complained yet. I think I am doing a good job so far," I tell her and she laughs. "You should know that she has be
Clara After the weird-looking vampires leave, I am left confused, more than I have ever been. What did my father ever do to Damien and his family to end up being their greatest enemy? Why does my father hate vampires so much? What on earth happened between these two kinds of beings? Damien turns and walks back towards the house without saying anything. Is he mad at me or mad at the vampires that just left? Does he dislike me since he has found out that I am his enemy's daughter? I look down at the ground and wonder what I should do now. It must be a really big problem in this place. The slim vampire with a hawkish nose was right. If he finds out that I am living with his enemy then nothing will be able to calm his rage, especially if he finds out that he is my mate. Damien just left. Everything was going great. I just got him, and now I can feel like he is so far away. I feel so small. I just feel like laying down on the ground and curling up into a ball so that I can be as small
Damien After spending some good time thinking about lots of things, I decided to go back to the house. Fabian has been the biggest enemy in my entire life but I have managed to move in. I have been living peacefully for all these years. He wouldn't dare show up here and cause a scene. I find Victoria and Raul in the living room. I can't spot Clara. "Where is Clara?" I ask them. "She has gone upstairs, I think," Victoria replies. "Okay," I say and climb up the stairs. I need to see her right now and talk to her. I hope those rascals didn't scare her away. I need to see her and assure them that everything is going to be fine. I need to hold her and tell her that nothing is going to come between us as long as we are determined to stand strong for each other. I open the door of the bedroom and enter. The room feels so empty. There is something on the bed. I dash to the bed and find the dress she was putting on folded neatly. I have a bad feeling about this. "Clara!" I call out whi
Clara After running out of tears, I finally decide to get out of my room. I have a slight headache because of all that crying. I head downstairs to the kitchen to get some water. The kitchen is very big. Most of the time the housekeepers keep food in there Incase someone wants to have food at any time. The last food I ate was the late breakfast that I had at Damien's house. There he goes again. I thought I had got him out of my head for a moment, but I think I have been lying to myself the whole time. The mate bond is still new. It hasn't grown that strong. The mate bond starts to get stronger when you are with your mate most of the time and his or her feelings reflect yours. Now that we are away from each other, I don't know if it is going to get weaker a disappear at some point or if it is going to get stronger until we can't stay away from each. I get some leftover food and heat it in the microwave. I put some on a plate and sit on a stool. Just as I start to dig in someone com
DamienThe Ventrue headquarters are located in the outcasts of the town. When we reach there, they let us in directly to the leaders. The leaders of the Ventrue clan are Three in number, usually two men and a woman.Mithras, one of the leaders is sitting in the chair in the far end of the room. The room is pretty dark. Lucky for me, I have Auspex abilities, I can see everything in the room.Amber, Raul and Orpheus stand behind me looking around to study the environment. Celeste, the female leader walks into the room and stands infront of me. She doesn't look pleased to see me. I am not here to please anyone anyway."Damien," she slithers and then walks about looking deeply thoughtful."What on earth were you thinking?" she asks me and shoots me an angry glare."What are you talking about?" I inquire from her and her eyes narrow at me."Don't you dare act dumb here, Damien. You can't just do anything you like ignoring the r
ClaraI stretch and turn lazily, but the where I am sleeping feels very soft, just like my mate's bed. Wait! When did I get into my mate's bed? Where am I?I open my eyes and look around me like a mad woman. This is definitely not Damien's room. The room feels very strange. Damien's sweet scent is not in here either. The bedrooms back in the pack house don't look like this.I immediately sit up and try to remember what happened to me last night. I got out of the pack house in the middle of the night and walked around the neighborhood. I wanted to go for a run in the woods but I didn't go. Something must have happened.I can remember that sharp and strong waves of pain hitting through my body. I touch my tummy remembering how much it hurt.Ahah! There was someone. A man who has a strong manly scent. Liam! He said his name is Liam! Shit! I passed out in front of the stranger! Did he bring me to his place?The door clicks open and a
DamienI get down the stairs and everyone is awake. What? It is so rare to find everyone awake before the sun goes down. Most of them sleep through out the day. I didn't even manage to have a peaceful rest today. I had a terrible night last night."Hey guys. You are all up?" I say while walking into the room."Yes, surprisingly," Luther says and walks past me."So you guys up to something?" I ask them."Yes, there is a lot of work to do outside. We are heading out to do some work outside the house. Some are going to do some retouches inside the house," Raul replies."That sounds like a good plan. The house needs some new paint," I say and Luther nods."Are we going now?" I ask."Yes," Luther replies.I am relieved that I can finally do something useful and get my mind off my runaway mate for some time. We head out and put our energy to use. I am pretty exhausted when the work is over. The sun has come down, and the
ClaraI can't believe that Damien is here for me. He took the risk of going into his enemy's territory just to see me. I feel like the the happiest woman on earth being with my mate once again. I pull him closer so that I can kiss him better. I missed his lips so much. I missed his sexy strong mascular hands all over me.Damien pulls back from the kiss and looks me in the eyes. He looks sexy as hell! I want him. I want him so bad. I get on my tiptoes and kiss him again. I can't get enough of him. I feel like I have been away from him for too long. I want to relish the feeling of him."Clara," he murmurs against my lips."I want you," I tell him."I know. I want you too," he says.I immediately reach for the buttons of his shirt and start undoing them quickly. I don't know what I am doing but I am certain that it is the bond making me do all of this.Damien grabs my hand and stops me from going further unbuttoning his shirt. What
ONE YEAR LATER DAMIEN Clara has been busy preparing baby Tristan for the morning. It is a cold day outside and she has dressed him in the warmest baby clothes in his closet. I haven't said anything about them being too hot for him, but what can I say? She is the mother so she knows what is best for Tristan. After dressing him up, she carries him to me and places him in my arms. Tristan has his moments. Sometimes he is very excited to play with daddy, and sometimes he is very furious to see me and he won't let me carry him. I guess today is my lucky day! Tristan gives me a cute big smile when I hold him in my arms. I can't help the grin that reflects on my face when I realize that I have timed one of his good moods. Mommy looks so tired. Tristan has been up half of the night giving her a hard time. I was awake all night and so was everyone else in the house but he didn't want anyone to get his fingers on him except his mommy. Now he wants
ClaraI won't deny the fact that my heart is hammering in chest right now. I have got Damien by my side and he is holding my hand. I might be nervous but I am not scared. I want to be confident while doing this. Damien even told me that he wouldn't mind if I didn't go with him because he doesn't want me to go through this emotional rollercoaster.Damien cares so much about my health and now that I am pregnant, he really doesn't want me to go through anything that will stress me. That's why he offered that I stay home with the others so that he could handle this on his own but I refused to stay behind, not because I want to be stubborn but I want us to stand together while facing this situation. I am not going to just stay home waiting for Damien to do this for us on his own.Jason comes out the house on check on what's going on. He looks really shocked to see Damien and me. I don't what has shocked him the most. Whether the fact that no one was expecting u
DAMIENI have been thinking about going to meet Fabian. I know that he hates me. Well, I am very well aware of that! But he surely cares about his daughter's happiness. Every parent wants what is good for their children. That is why Fabian wouldn't just want his daughter to run away to his enemy.I have that maybe I could go and talk to Fabian, man to man. Without his guards and entire pack guarding him. If we have to fight, we should fight, but we have to resolve something by the end of the day.If he wants to set terms and conditions, I will agree as long as they don't involve taking Clara away from me or putting my family in danger. I know Clara is happy here; she told me that but she is not completely happy. She must be worried about her father and he might do any time from now.I don't want her to leave in fear. I want her to be completely happy when we are together. I don't want part of her attention to be devoted to what she has left behind or what
CLARAToday, I have woken up with a smile on my face. Damien is still in bed, for once. Whenever I wake up when we have slept together, I always find him either already awake or in the middle of escaping. Now he looks peacefully asleep.Oh, he looks handsome even when he is asleep. One would think he is not really asleep. I mean, his face is intact and he doesn't snore. Something tells me that he didn't turn all night. I admire his face when I have the chance to.The sun is shinning brightly outside. I wonder what time it is. I check on the usual clock on the wall. It's nine o'clock in the morning. I let out a sigh of relief. For once I have woken up early in this house. Though nine o'clock isn't that early but it is the Vampire house.I place my head back on his chest and caress his shoulder. I feel peaceful here. This is my happy place. I wish I never have to leave.Father!My eyes widen when I remember father! Liam
DAMIENI pull away from the kiss and look my girl in the eyes. I can't believe she is here with me after such a long time that feels like forever. I am so impatient to savour her. To taste her skin, her lips, everything. I feel like I have been starved all this time and I just want to devour her.I hold the band of her panties and slowly pull them down her legs and off her body. The scent of her arousal fills the air making my nose flare. Oh, god! She smells so good!I lower my head between her legs and notice how wet she is! Fuck! My cock gets ten times harder at the look of this amazing sight. I lick my lips in anticipation. Clara's chest heaves up and down as she watches me, also anticipating what I will do next."Fuck! You are so wet for me," I groan while rubbing my fingers up and down her wet slit. Fuck. I might come in my pants just my doing this. I need to control myself or else I might finish before I even begin. I am so hard, my pants are starti
CLARAI can't believe that I am finally back here. I have been having a lot of thoughts about running away from home and showing up at this door, but I have been trying hard to keep myself under control. Now I am here. Damien has brought me back. I have made up my mind not to think about father or worry about what he will do when he finds out. I just want to enjoy myself while I am here.Damien opens the door for me and I enter. This place has a way it makes me relax. This is where I belong. Emma and Logan walk to the door to check on us."Clara, you came back!" Emma shrieks with excitement when she sees me. She runs to me and embraces me into a tight hug."I am glad you are back. I missed you so much," she says and my heart melts at her words. I am at loss of words knowing that there is someone who cares about me here more than I even imagined."How are you guys? How are you doing?" I ask them."We doing great. Damien and everyo
ClaraI pull away from the kiss and look Damien in the eyes. I still can't believe he is here. He came here to see me. I can't get my hands off him. I feel like if I let go, he will slip away and I won't be able to see him again."Are you alright, Clara? How are you?" he inquires from me while his eyes inspect my face."I am fine, Damien. I just miss you so much. I miss you a lot," I tell him."I know, baby. I miss you more. That's why I had to come here. To check on you," he says and his lips find mine once more. I close my eyes and let him kiss me. I missed his lips: the way they gently slide over mine and though sometimes they can be possessive and a bit rough, I love all of it.I am breathless when I pull away from the kiss. I want Damien to carry me in his arms and take out of here. I want him to take me his home. Where I belong. I am already tired of this party and I just want to go with him. I don't care where he takes me as long as I
DamienTonight is the night of Liam's party. I have already arrived at the venue. Raul, Katherine and Orpheus have come along. Very few members of my family are party animals. I am not a party animal either, but I am only using this chance to chase my happiness.The party has already started. I wanted to be, maybe the first guest to arrive on the venue so that I can check for every guest that arrives, but I got caught up helping one of the new members who wanted to sneak into his home and check on his family.I thought it wouldn't take long but he is a very emotional man. He had to weep when he saw his wife crying over him. I wouldn't blame and I didn't want to rush him so I let him take his time.He told me that if things go well and he can be able to handle his Vampire senses, he will go back to his wife and marry her again like a vampire this time. He even asked me if I think she will love him the same after knowing that he is now a vampire.
ClaraFather bought me a dress dress to wear on Liam's party tomorrow. I don't know how time has gone do fast but it has been almost two weeks since I last saw Damien. Mentally, I haven't recovered well. Physically, I think I am getting sickly every morning.I know I should inform someone about how weak I have been feeling lately but I should be able to handle this on my own. If I tell dad or Jason, they will call all the skilled doctors and check up on me but I don't want all that attention over such a small matter.It is not like I have been having a strong fever or terrible stomach and back ache. I just feel sickly. I think it is all because of all the depression and stress that I have been going through. I think I am going to be fine in a matter of time.I don't want to miss Liam's party tomorrow. I just want to be out and have fun that I haven't been able to have in a long while. I just want to get out of my room and this house for once and have a go
