All Chapters of Passions Rising: A Forbidden Vampiric Love Story: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

Adriana and George followed Ragnar and Sherri to a small sitting room. Both security teams cleared the room and then left when it was deemed secure, leaving the two couples alone with each other. “First, I wish to make this clear. We expect nothing from this, but this concerns us too much to not get involved. Since we are in private, may I call you Adriana and George?” Ragnar tried to set the tone for the whatever he wanted to say to George and Adriana.Adriana nodded, all the formality often wore her down, and she felt it wasted too much time. “I have no problem with that, as we are of similar rank and privilege.” “Thank you. This is all going to seem impossible. We aren’t sure how this all works truthfully, and we aren’t looking for any favours now or in the future for this. Sherri may be human, but she is definitely a hybrid of some sort. What I mean is, everyone knows pure humans don’t have any special abilities. Since she’s

Ana slowly felt a little better, not a lot, but the subject was too sobering for her. “If I believe this… Wait. No, if this happens, I can’t expect you to risk yourself harbouring me. This is insanity to think it wouldn’t come back to haunt you and yours. The Empire wouldn’t hesitate to attack if they discovered you were harbouring a Blood Traitor.” “I have a feeling the last place they will look for you is within a territory run by a shifter. What sane shifter would allow a vampire, let alone two, reside within their territory?”Allan responded to Ana’s questions.“Why would you do this? What is your motive for doing this? What do you want from this at the end?” Ana wasn’t foolish enough to just hand herself over to just anyone. It didn’t take anything but a little imagination and a small amount of knowledge to create a false vision or prophecy. Now Ana regretted drinking as much as she did. Her thoughts were slower than they usually were, and it wasn’t a feeling she liked

They returned to their residence and bided their time. Adriana used the time to formulate plans for the next round of sittings which wasn’t easy with Maximus questioning every step of every plan. She was at the point where she’d put her in a mood where she needed to put her foot down literally. Several times she wanted to put her foot into his face. If she hadn’t the good sense to work, her aggressive tendencies out in the gym George created in the basement for the security staff. So, when she couldn’t run outside there was some place she could train. “You can’t limit the trade between the Empire and any other faction, it’ll harm us as much or more than us.” Maximus always had an objection about all of her decisions. “Maximus this is to make a point and it won’t last long. Also, it doesn’t harm us, it inconveniences us there’s a major difference. It hurts them because we aren’t the only using this tactic to bring them in line. Why am I explaining this to y

George left Ana after he had her calmed down and reminded her of the instructions she needed to remember. There was so much, and she was still trying to find her identity. Right now, George saw her at his weakest and strongest. He knew he was falling in love with both sides of her personality. But this would be the make-or-break test. Could she live without contact with her family or be at the wrong end of their society? Would she survive being on the run? Sure he knew she could defend herself, and stand up against those who opposed her interests. But he worried she’d cannot survive in the most basic manner. Eating, working, and even hunting. He wasn’t sure she knew how to hunt to survive. That’s where his fears for her lay at this moment. Once the important things were packed, he personally took it to the warehouse where it would wait for the dragons to pick up, or for him to pick up. Either way, only a handful of people knew where it was. An hour before they wo

“Adriana, hold up a moment. I thought you were going to not call attention to any false connections between you and whatever happened around here?” George chased after her with several guards hot on his heels, but when he spoke with her, they kept a respectful distance from the couple and observed them closely. “George, stop right there. Have you forgotten it’s Princess Adriana here?” Ana needed to remind them of where they were and how to address her. If he messed up too much, it could harm them on so many levels. She prayed it wasn’t too late now. “I’m sorry.” George acted properly chastised for the guards, because truly Ana didn’t care about that. “As for that outburst there. I’ve pointed everyone’s eyes in several directions, not just Tatiana. Well, maybe most of the arrows are pointed in her direction, but any of those who have any brain in their heads can see I’ve pointed them to look for someone who’s trying to not only kill us but dr
