KAELYNN'S POV❦❦❦I knocked before opening the door. And as soon as I entered the room, I saw Danrious lying on his bed while typing something on his phone."Excuse me, Sir. I'll start cleaning now," I informed him as I placed the cleaning materials at the side of the drawer. Then, I picked up the cleaning towel and started wiping the top of the drawer. The room was covered in silence, and he never said anything nor looked in my direction. He's acting as if I don't exist at all. Nonetheless, I shook that off my mind and focused on my job.While I was wiping the drawer, the pictures displayed caught my attention. I noticed that most photos shown in this room include their mother. Maybe they dumped all the belongings that reminded them of their mother in this room when she was gone.Wait, did she leave them to elope with another man? I wonder what truly happened to the twins' mother. I thought as I stared at the photos before me."You're just like her. A liar," I heard Rious' voice, so
KAELYNN'S POV❦❦❦It's been a week since that incident in the dining room happened, and since then, I couldn't attend school anymore. Also, Danrious continued to harass me, but this time he was not physically hurting me. Instead, he was making me do all the chores repetitively around the house, primarily if it was related to him or his belongings. For example, after I finish washing his clothes, it won't take half a day before he tells me to rewash them.Another change is that he always makes me wait for his return till dawn, making me sleepless and over-tired. Danrious's ridiculous commands and attitude stress me out, but I can't blame him for being like that, so I will strive and do my best for him to accept me again."Kaelynn, you know what? It's almost our birthday," Daniel suddenly spoke while we were both watching over Sir Darenn, who was busy coloring.Another thing that changed was Daniel's relationship with Danrious, his twin brother. Since Daniel punched Rious in the face, t
DANIEL's POVWhile walking in the hallway, I saw Kaelynn walking out of her bedroom, wearing an oversized jacket in this hot summertime. I raised my left eyebrow at her when I noticed that she was at her nape, and she was awkward and restless, which made me even more curious."Did something happen, My Loves?" I asked as soon as I approached her, snapping her out of her thoughts."Huh? Ah, h-hahaha, nothing. Nothing happened," she answered with an awkward laugh. Then, she handed me the letter she had written back for Nana and Red."Thanks again, Daniel," she said, quickly walking away."Hey, wait! There's something weird about you," I said, so she quickly turned to face me and shook her head aggressively."Nope! Nothing's wrong with me!" she replied."Oh, yes, there is," I said as I looked at her intently, but she immediately avoided my gaze, which confirmed my thoughts.I knew it. You're hiding something, Kaelynn. I thought as I stepped closer to her, but she quickly stepped back."A-
KAELYNNs' POV ❦❦❦Today is Friday, and it will be the twins' birthday tomorrow, yet here I am, still unsure of what I should give to them as a gift tomorrow for their birthday. I want it to be something Daniel and Danrious will enjoy and make them happy on their birthday.I'm not having much of a hard time with Daniel's gift since he told me that he would be happy with anything, even if it's just some cookies, as long as it came from me. But what about Danrious? Will he even accept my gift? I doubt that. There is an excellent probability that he might throw away anything from me.Wait! No, Runo! Just think positively! You can do this! For now, I'll bake them the best cookies for their birthday. I thought and nodded my head. Then, while Sir Darenn was still asleep, I went to the kitchen and checked the cabinets and refrigerator to see if there were enough supplies and ingredients to bake cookies."What are you looking for, Kaelynn?" I suddenly heard a female's voice, so I saw Mila app
DANRIOUS' POV❦❦❦I'm currently on my way to the parking lot while there's this b*tch clinging to my left arm. I know she's talking to me and trying to impress me with her boastful words, but it doesn't excite me at all, so as soon as we reached the parking lot, I immediately pulled away from the b*tch and started walking straight to my car."Hey, wait! Danrious! Are you going home now? I can accompany you if you want," the sl*t volunteered herself, but I firmly refused her without glancing at her face."No need. I'm tired, so don't follow me," I said to the dunce."Oh, okay. Well, I'll see you tomorrow! Bye!" The woman said and ran after me. Then, she suddenly kissed me on my left cheek before leaving the parking lot.Tsk! I hissed as I got into my car and wiped off her kiss mark from my cheeks. I sighed and took a deep breath. Then, I noticed my twin brother, Daniel, who was still busy handling the school papers from the council. Since I quit the committee, all my tasks and word loa
KAELYNN's POV❦❦❦Danrious's grip is so tight around my arm, staring straight into my eyes as if he wants to swallow me whole."D-Danrious," I whimpered and tried to escape his grip, but he tightened his grip, and I felt like my arm was about to break his strength. My tears started forming at the side of my eyes. Then, I looked at the box of cookies I had made for him and saw it scattered on the floor, and at that moment, my tears began falling one after the other. He ignored my tears and glared at me before asking me for the second time."Am I really your first kiss?" Danrious asked with gritted teeth, grabbed my face with his other hand, and forced me to face him."Answer me! Was it me!?" He asked again while his fingers pressed hard on my skin.While my tears won't stop falling like waterfalls, I shut my eyes and shook my head as a no, answering his question.I can't hide it from him anymore. I'm sure he already knew the truth and was only confirming it from me, so if I lie to him
DANRIOUS's POVI woke up from the sounds of birds chirping outside my window, and while still lying on the bed, I looked around my room and found my clothes scattered on the floor, so I got up and picked it up.I put on my clothes and fixed my bedding, but while smoothing the plain white bed cover, I saw Runo's bloodstains."Damn it!" I cussed as I pulled my hair tightly.I wasn't planning to take advantage of her, but I just couldn't control myself last night.Then, memories of my mischief and unbelievable commands flashed in my mind, making tears form in my eyes again.I regret it. I should have listened to her. I shouldn't have done those things to her, like taking her blood without permission.I tried to stop my tears from falling by looking up at the ceiling, but I still couldn't stop it.Not cool. How many times have I cried because of that woman? Only Runo can do this to me. And only she can make me go crazy for a passionate night.As soon as I remembered what happened to Runo
KAELYNN's POV❦❦❦I slowly opened my eyes and saw Mila sleeping on the couch inside my room. Then, I tried getting up from my bed, but my body felt heavy, making me groan."Kaelynn, you're awake!" Mila exclaimed after she woke up when she heard the slight noise I had made."No, don't push yourself too much. Your body still needs more rest," Mila said. I tried to speak in response to her, but my throat felt so dry that it hurt every time I tried to utter a word."Here, drink this. I'm sure your throat is dry," Mila said as she gave me a glass of water and helped me drink."Finish this first. I'll go fetch you a warm soup," Mila said, so I nodded at her. Then I tried to speak again after drinking the glass of water."Tha-Thank...you...Mila." I uttered and smiled at her, which she returned with a smile as well. Then, she walked out of the room.I looked around my room and noticed the bag of dextrose hanging from its stand right beside my bed. I followed the cord and saw it connected in m
E P I L O G U E❦❦❦She peacefully sleeping beside me, utterly exhausted from our night together. I gaze at her face, blissfully asleep as if nothing had happened between us."Oh, Gabs, you're so adorable," I whisper, gently brushing aside a few strands of hair that cover her face. I consider leaning in for a kiss but realize it would be even more delightful when she wakes up, so I let her continue her peaceful sleep.Well, I suppose any woman who spends the night with me would inevitably tire herself out. Ahem, that's right, I'm Daniel Lockhart, exceptionally skilled in such matters. Almost everyone dreams of being with me at night and serving me.But of course, I would devote my heart and body solely to this woman."Daniel, are you done massaging Gabs?" my annoying twin interrupts, ruining my night. Danrious is such a troublemaker, always trying to meddle in things, especially when I want to have Gabs all to myself by my side."Yes, but she didn't want me to touch her legs and arms.
DANIEL's POV❦❦❦He gazed at the man kneeling in front of him, and I could see his clenched fist trembling, but I couldn't find any trace of emotion on his face.It seemed like he had nothing else to say, and even I didn't know how to act in this situation."Stand up there." We both looked at Gabs, who was now glaring fiercely at him.He quickly obeyed Gabs' command and stood in front of him, and I was suddenly startled when Gabs kicked the man in his groin without warning."Argh!" he gasped in pain, contorting while holding his groin, his legs folding under him, but it didn't change Gabs' expression."I said stand up," he said softly, and the man struggled to stand in front of him."That's not enough." And he kicked the man's groin again forcefully, I couldn't tell if it was a kick or a stomp due to its sheer force.I couldn't bear to look at the man anymore because I felt that my own dignity was being hurt by what Gabs was doing."Ahh! Argh!" Even if he wanted to beg for it to stop,
DANIEL's POV❦❦❦The sun was setting, signaling the end of the day. I sat on a bench, patiently waiting for her to finish changing clothes.I glanced at the water, wondering why my vision seemed to be spinning. I struggled to breathe, feeling the familiar pang of thirst creeping up on me again.The crowd around me was bustling, and I could practically smell the blood coursing through their veins. Why is Gabs taking too long? I wanted to leave before anything happened to me.I felt powerless to control my thirst at that moment."Senpai?" I turned to her, forcing a smile. She came and stood beside me, gently touching my forehead."You seem unusually pale. Are you okay?" I nodded and invited her to return to the car."Let's go home," I said, and she quickly followed. She supported me as we walked, and my vision was spinning.Why do I tire so easily now? Is my heart still lacking the blood it needs to heal?I got into the car and immediately searched for my blood drugs. Seeing my panic, s
DANIEL's POV❦❦❦Riding in a tinted car, dressed in a sleek black long-sleeved shirt, sporting sunglasses and a face covered in sunblock.That's my get-up today, with all sorts of creams applied to my body to combat the sun, courtesy of the vampires, but I'm still nervous about what Gabs has planned for me.I was just joking when I mentioned wanting to take a dip at the beach, but it seems like he actually took it seriously.Is he seriously plotting to eliminate me so that he can finally rid himself of the annoying tag-alongs and followers?Well, Gabs seems to be taking full advantage of my love for him because even though I'm terrified of daylight, I'm willing to do this for him."Are you ready, Senpai?" he asked, while scanning the road ahead."I'm not ready to die yet! I still want us to have a family, Gabs!" He laughed and glanced at my phone.He held it and took charge of navigating the way to the resort he wanted. Damn, I should have written my final instructions to Kuya and Dan
DANIEL's POV❦❦❦A week has passed since Papa talked to us, and I'm not sure if that's really his plan because to me, it seems too weak and easily manageable.I understand Gabs' situation, and it's not her fault that her past is like that, so I'm not really affected by what I've learned.In fact, it seems like the two of us have become even closer because of what Papa did. He was too lenient in tormenting me, unlike what he did to Danrious.Perhaps he's so furious with Kaelyn because she's Tita Rose's daughter from his first marriage.I walked down the hallway, carrying the books I borrowed from the library. The final exams are approaching, and even though I might be a vampire, I still need to study to interact with people.I looked at my arm, which was growing pale, with my green and violet veins prominently visible.Glancing at the clock as I passed by, I realized it was already morning, and I needed to hurry home.Lately, my body has been weakening, perhaps due to the accident that
DANIEL's POV❦❦❦We walked together out of the mansion as the dawn approached, and I needed to accompany her before my father could come up with any of his schemes.I kept my head down as we walked, not wanting to speak or engage with her, even though I had wanted to ask her about her confession for a while now.Truthfully, I could hear the words "I love you" in my mind."Sh*t," I covered my mouth because just thinking about what she said earlier made it impossible for me not to smile like a fool here."Senpai?" she asked, and I avoided looking at her. I didn't know why, but it turned me on whenever she called me Senpai.And she looked even more, put together now, wearing feminine attire. She had a strong presence, even when she entered school wearing pants, but seeing her in her first-ever female uniform, was triple the impact."Oh?" I asked seriously, of course pretending to be cool. It would be difficult if she found out how deeply I had fallen for her."I'm sorry for not asking pe
DANIEL's POV❦❦❦He has been tailing me since earlier, from the moment I entered until now, during lunch break. The students are watching us, and I have no idea if someone here was sent by my father to keep an eye on me.That's why I still haven't paid attention to him, even though he looks so cute right now with his hair tied to the side in a way that I don't know who did it, and I might have to pay a large sum to whoever did it because it looks amazing!I think I'm going crazy with just trying to fix this girl up because it feels like she's glowing even though it's nighttime now, and I feel like there are flowers around us even though we're in the hallway and it's breezy. I'm going crazy with the repeated image of her in my mind, even though we're facing away from each other now."Arrghh," I pulled my own hair in frustration and stopped walking."Senpai, are you okay?" How can I be okay when you're so cute, and I want to keep you close to me?"No, I have a headache," it hurts from t
DANIEL's POV❦❦❦I ushered her into the room and let the door swing open, catching a whiff of Gabs' scent and drawing closer to us. It meant she followed us and was curious about what was happening."Wait, even in this room? Is it okay?" I grinned and kissed her neck."Well, I don't care," I said, planting more kisses down her neck."Oww," she uttered softly, and I cautiously checked if anyone was peeking through the door. To my surprise, she was watching while sipping her milk!I felt annoyed but couldn't resist kissing this girl whose name I had forgotten."Wow, I guess you bring many girls here," she said while playfully reaching for my necktie."Hahaha, yeah, I didn't count, though," I said, unbuttoning her blouse.I was somewhat enjoying what I was doing, not because of this girl, but because I thought she might be getting jealous. So I looked at her again, and she was eagerly drinking the milk, which seemed empty now.I bared my fangs and kissed her neck once more, sinking my fa
DANIEL's POVAfter that incident, I began distancing myself from him.I spent weeks locked in my room, unable to have a proper conversation with my brother, and Rious was nowhere to be found.My dad cut off all connections with Rious. He deactivated all of his credit cards and blocked all phone connections between us.I couldn't go out or even offer any help to my twin. They are suffering now because he chose to live a difficult life rather than the wealth our father had.I felt a deep sense of despair seeing my missing mother. I thought she had simply left us and gone with someone else, but it turns out she was all this time hidden away in a small box.She was confined there with the heads of various men, and I almost went crazy upon learning this. But my brother also stood by me, mourning for his mother.Together, we buried their bodies, and my brother spoke to me, saying that if we let our dad win, it would be the end for us. So here I am now, trying my best to stay strong.From no
