Grace could tell the woman who just exited the kitchen was unhappy about something from her demeanour. Gabrielle entered the living room and realized the only space available was the one next to Andrews. She decided to go to the bedroom as she would be more comfortable there."I'm a bit tired so I would like to rest," Gabrielle said, excused herself and went inside the bedroom upstairs.Gabrielle closed the door behind her and went to lie on the bed."Why am I doing this to myself?" she thought "It's obvious Andrews doesn't want me," she thought.She lay on her side, grabbed a pillow, placed it under her head and placed another in between her legs. "He is the only man who spoke nicely to me, and made me feel like a woman," she thought and closed her eyes remembering her first time with Andrews.She quickly shook her head pushing the memories away. She got up and went to the bathroom. She took her clothes off and stood under the shower allowing the water to run over her body. She sto
"What kind of magic is in the air?" thought the other guard.Ragnor, hearing their thoughts, pulled Clara into his embrace, preventing her from seeing his face. He glanced at the two guards and the look in his eyes made the colour drain off their skin. They stopped thinking and looked away immediately.Ragnor turned to look at Clara, his gaze was soft and loving, "Let's go back to the palace. We will be going to Matara today," Clara nodded and he planted a kiss on her forehead. He carried her and used his vampire speed, going past the guards towards the palace. Nyota gave George new clothes from her wardrobe. They both laughed at the idea of him wearing her clothes and it fitting so well except it looked very short as George was very tall."You know, you look pretty as a woman" Nyota praised."If I didn't meet you in this life, with this compliment, I would have wished I was born a female but maybe in my next life," Geroge replied flirtatiously in his female voice"Your current visib
Jessica turned off the TV and smiled. She went for a glass of wine and returned to her seat staring at the dark screen of the TV.Inside the room, Andrews opened his eyes to find Gabrielle in his arms. The memory of their passionate night came flooding his mind. It wouldn't be their first time but this felt different even though it was their second time."What changed?" Andrews wondered as he stared at Gabrielle's beautiful sleeping face. He smiled and was glad he didn't kill her in the process. It took a lot of control on his side. He wondered if Ragnor goes through the same with Clara. If that is what it takes then no vampire should be with a human but how can he leave her now? Something about her draws him to her. Andrews stared at Gabrielle in silence. She didn't know who or what they were, referring to himself and Jessica. Biting each other during an intimate session is a thing for vampires. Andrews recalled how many times he had to hold back the urge to bite her. She had fun a
The officers put her in a cage not sure what she was with fangs that long and bloodshot eyes and nails that long. Andrews was cuddling sleeping Gabrielle in his arms but also had a bad feeling. He gently pulled himself away from Gabrielle making sure he didn't wake her and stepped out of the room. It was 2 a.m. already and no sign of Jessica. He went into her room to check if she was back but the room was empty. "Oh Jessica, Jessica, where are you? I warned you to leave these humans alone," Andrews thought suspecting Jessica was in trouble. Meanwhile, Jessica, who had quieted down, was discreetly sent to one of the government's private research facilities. They didn't want to alarm the people with news of a strange being as the "snake killer" yet they wanted to know what Jessica is first. A few researchers were tasked to do this discreetly. Jessica was heavily sedated and kept in chains awaiting various testing to begin in the morning. She lay in the cage, eyes wide open but ve
It was morning in California, and there was no news of anyone killed by the "Killer snake" but rather, two people were reported missing."It appears the 'killer snake' has changed its hunting strategy. Two people have been reported missing and we currently do not know if they are still alive or dead, however, the police are doing everything within their capacity to find these two," came the reporter's voice Grace turned off the TV. She was worried Jessica was still not back home. She opened the door and stood at the entrance looking outside. She was not sure what she was looking for, but she was hoping to see Jessica walking towards the apartment."Lord, please bring ma'am Jessica home," Grace prayed as she scanned the entire neighbourhood. She closed the door and went back inside. At the government's private research warehouse, one research scientist, Gilbert, walked closer to Jessica's gage. He frowns seeing the beautiful woman lying motionless in the cage."What happened to the cr
Meanwhile, in the Immortal City, Gabrielle had just woken up. She jumped out of fright when she saw Andrews sitting on a chair looking at her. She tried to run but Andrews lifted his index finger and shook it in a no. "Your speed is no match for me. Sit, I will tell you a story," Andrews sounded very calm.Gabrielle was leaning against the wall staring at Andrews. Her heart was beating so fast in her chest. Of all the people she could fall in love with, she fell in love with a vampire. "Sit," Andrews ordered.Gabrielle jumped in fright hearing his voice again. Out of fear she dragged herself to the bed and climbed onto it. She sat on the bed and clutched the pillow like it was a shield that would protect her from any attack. She limited herself to a small space leaning heavily on the bed headboard. Andrews watched her in silence reading all her reactions. He thought he would be angry with her but for some reason, his heart shattered seeing her in that frightened state. He didn't wan
Jessica did some of the journey on foot and was soon in the Immortal City. She smiled and was happy to see the city was not in darkness as Andrews had said."Home sweet home," Jessica shouted and walked towards the nearest street where she could hail a taxi. She got into a cab and gave her destination as the palace. She arrived at the palace in 20 minutes and quickly got out of the car. She gave her number to pay her fare and stood at the main gate admiring the three-storey palace with its beautiful gardens and walkways. She walked through the gate and identified herself as a friend of the queen. She was let in after confirmation was done.Jessica continued walking into the palace. The first person she had in mind to look for was Siku. She asked the guard upon reaching the entrance where she could find Queen Siku. The guard who didn't know her asked her to wait at the entrance and alerted another guard inside to inform Queen Siku, that she had a visitor by the name of Jessica at the
"You may kiss your bride," the priest announced and Ragnor didn't waste a second in kissing her so passionately as the guests cheered and clapped. Queen Siku and the vampire Lords were the only ones unhappy with what was going on. For Ragnor and Clara, they could only see each other. Everyone else and everything faded into the background. The ceremony continued with music, dancing, and enough food to go around. The only humans present at the wedding were the servants and the priest. Ragnor and his family, the butler, the four chauffeurs, Queen Siku and the vampire lords were not human. The ceremony was the most expensive ever organised in San Francisco and this attracted Media attention to the venue and pictures of Clara's gown went viral on social media."May I have this dance, my lady," Ragnor requested, offering his hand to Clara. Clara smiled and placed her hand in his and he led her to the centre of the living room which had been cleared of its seats purposely to be used as a
