CHAPTER ONE

EMILIO'S POVI stared at my phone, the screen glowing in the dim light of my room. A text from Alex and Jake popped up ."Hey, Emilio. Follow us to Eternal tonight. Trust us, you won't regret it."My curiosity piqued, I hesitated for a moment. Eternal was the new club downtown, rumored to be exclusive and secretive. What were my friends getting themselves into?"It's not about regretting it. I have some projects to work on and—" I was trying to come up with an excuse but they were quick to notice it as another text came in while I was typing."No excuse would be accepted anyways." Alex and Jake were my closest friends. We'd been through thick and thin together. If they wanted me to follow them, I wouldn't question it.'Alright, guys. I'm in. Lead the way,' I typed back.Within minutes, they responded with the address."Come alone. There are a lot of girls and in your case, a lot of charming dudes." A shiver ran down my spine. A smile lingered on my face for a bit as I chuckled to

CHAPTER TWO

Emilio's POVIt's been over a week since that unforgettable night at Eternal. The kiss with Lucas still lingers on my lips, haunting me like a ghost. Every waking moment, I'm consumed by thoughts of him.His piercing blue eyes.His chiseled features.His addictive smile.That kiss... It was like the world had come to a standstill. Time froze, leaving only Lucas and me, lost in the intensity of our connection.But then, chaos erupted. The vampire scare, the frantic exit... And Lucas vanished.I've tried reaching out, scouring social media, asking around. Nothing.It's as if he never existed.Yet, the memory of our kiss refuses to fade. I relive it every night, my dreams filled with visions of Lucas's lips, his touch, his whispered words."Forever starts now."Was it just a fleeting moment of madness? Or did we truly connect?My friends try to distract me, but even their jokes and antics can't shake off this longing.Another day, another design project, but my mind is elsewhere. Lucas

CHAPTER THREE

Emilio's POV I take Lucas's hand, leading him to my house in silence. Inside, the familiar surroundings seem to shrink with his presence."Where have you been?" I demand, turning to face him.Lucas's gaze wanders around my living room, lingering on scattered design books and art supplies."Busy," he replies, his voice cryptic.I fold my arms, eyes narrowing. "Busy isn't an answer, Lucas."His smile resurfaces, but I sense a hint of unease."I had matters to attend to," he elaborates."Matters?" I press my tone firm.Lucas's eyes lock onto mine, their intensity making my heart skip a beat."Emilio, I—" he begins.The doorbell interrupts, shattering the moment."I'll get it," I mutter.I saw a box and instantly knew the delivery man dropped the items I ordered for last week."Who?" He asked."A dispatch rider." I replied. I don't care what I said.Lucas's eyes linger on the door, his expression unreadable."I should go," he says. But I'm not ready to let him disappear again. Not yet, n

CHAPTER FOUR

Lucas's POVWhat would I say about humans? Weak, fragile and reckless things.But yet, I fell for one. The same species of being that wiped my whole family. I watched them slaughter my mom and she was just 6 months pregnant. They killed my sister and cut her parts by parts in my presence.I was just twelve years old when I ran away. In their words, they were called 'The vampire hunters.'I hated them, every single thing about them. I had swore to take down the man that murdered my family. I would wipe his family from generations.I wasn't a fool who would go about killing all humans because a particular maniac decided to wipe my family but that didn't stop me from turning as many as I can.I turned them.Compelled them.And used them for my personal gain.But with Emilio, everything seemed different and foreign.As I gazed at the blood seeping from Emilio's cut hand, I couldn't tear my eyes away. The hunger pangs hit me suddenly, and my stomach growled with an otherworldly craving.

CHAPTER FIVE

Lucas's POVI stepped out of Emilio's house, wrapping my coat tightly around me. The sun's rays were harsh, and I couldn't risk exposure. I covered my face, neck, and hands, protecting my pale skin.As I walked downtown, my thoughts drifted to Emilio. Would the sun affect him too? I worried about his safety, but then I remembered – he hadn't fully turned yet. He was still in limbo, caught between human and vampire.The city streets blurred together as I hurried to my apartment. I couldn't shake the feeling of unease. Emilio's transformation weighed heavily on my mind.Finally, I reached my apartment and shed my protective layers. Exhaustion hit me, and I collapsed onto the couch, letting out a deep sigh.Just as I closed my eyes, my phone buzzed. Vikram's name flashed on the screen. I hesitated for a moment before answering."Hey, Vikram," I said, trying to sound casual."Lucas, we have a problem," Vikram's serious voice greeted. His tone sent a shiver down my spine."What's going on?

CHAPTER SIX

Emilio's POV This morning had been a disaster from the start. Lucas and I didn't start up in a good way due to the fact that he annoyed me the previous day. I felt like a stupid person to be in love with a vampire. Weird right, but I can't help it. I didn't see the point in texting him to say I was heading out. He'd probably just ignore me or send a curt reply. But as I grabbed my keys and headed for the door from my office, my mind began to wander. I couldn't shake the memory of our first kiss, the way Lucas's lips had felt against mine. And that night... oh, that night. The way our bodies had moved together, the way Lucas had made me feel. My chest tightened, a mix of emotions swirling inside me. I hated how Lucas pushed my buttons, how he knew exactly how to get under my skin. But at the same time... I loved him. I loved the way he made me feel alive. I sighed, frustration and desire warring within me. Why did it have to be Lucas, of all people? Someone who drove me c

CHAPTER SEVEN

Emilio's POV As the figure emerged from the shadows, Lucas's reflexes kicked in. He pushed me behind him, his body shielding mine."Run," he growled, his eyes fixed on the mysterious figure.My heart racing, I hesitated for a split second before obeying. Lucas's protective instincts kicked in, and I trusted him.We sprinted through the house, Lucas expertly navigating the darkness. The figure gave chase, its footsteps echoing through the empty halls.We burst through the front door, and Lucas swiftly guided me toward his car."Get in," he ordered, opening the passenger door.I dove inside, my mind reeling with questions.Who was that figure? What did they want?Lucas slid into the driver's seat, starting the engine with a roar."Hold on," he warned, peeling out of the driveway.As we sped away from my family's house, I turned to Lucas."What just happened?" I demanded.Lucas's gaze flicked between the road and the rearview mirror."We'll talk about it later," he promised. "First, we

CHAPTER EIGHT

Lucas's Pov After he blacked out, I felt sorry for Emilio. But regardless of my hesitation, I promised myself I would do anything to protect him. These guys in front of me did not stand a chance.“I know your pain. All of you. But my stance on Emilio will never change.”The one with the parted hair looked at me, a smug smile rising on his cheeks.“You're not the Lucas we used to know anymore. You've changed. And it's not for the better. You've forgotten who you are and all that you stand for!”A surge of energy coursed through me.“Yes, I may have changed, and it's normal that you don't like that. But no matter what, that's the beef we have amongst one other. It has nothing to do with Emilio.”By now, I could hear Emilio groan from the floor, but he was clearly too weak to stand on his own. I stood closely behind him in a protective pose.“Lucas, I can't believe it. That you would turn on your brothers just for the sake of pathetic love. Your parents would be disappointed in you.”So

CHAPTER NINE

Emilio's POV I looked at Emilio, lying helpless on the ground. Could I really kill him? No, I couldn't."You don't understand," I said, shaking my head. "Emilio is different. He's kind and gentle. He wouldn't hurt anyone."Red snorted. "You're blinded by love, Lucas. You're not thinking clearly.""I am thinking clearly," I insisted. "And I know Emilio would never betray me."The blonde one spoke up. "But what about his family? They'll never accept him as a vampire. They'll hunt him down.""I'll protect him," I said firmly."But can you protect him from himself?" Red asked, raising an eyebrow. "What if he loses control and hurts someone?"I hesitated. That was a possibility. Vampires struggled with control, especially new ones."Emilio won't hurt anyone," I said, trying to sound confident.Red sighed. "Lucas, we're trying to save you from yourself. You're making a huge mistake.""I'm not making a mistake," I said, standing taller. "I love Emilio, and I'll do whatever it takes to keep

CHAPTER TEN

Emilio's POV There was an indescribable feeling that made me want to flip over. The hunger that overwhelmed me was something I couldn't quite describe. At some point, i imagined myself finishing a full bull but that wasn't the hunger.This one was different."That's it." Lucas exclaimed as he used his left hand to brush his head backwards."What's it?" I asked the moment I realized myself loosing my cool. "It's so hot." I complained standing up from where I was sitting to the kitchen. I opened the deep freezer and made to enter inside when Lucas stopped me."Are you crazy? You'll freeze to death." He muttered as he helped me out and closed the deep freezer."What's happening to me!? What's wrong?" I was sniffing around and I felt disgusted by my own behavior. Lucas on the other hand looked so worried. He paced back and forth thinking of a solution."Lucas please tell me I'm going to be fine." I asked as I grabbed his hands and walked towards him."Yes... Y, yes you will. This is jus
