It's hard to believe that.She curved her lips as her mentality moved hips.As Catelyn glared at me with her arms crossed, I explained, "It was so long ago, Catelyn, I barely even remembered what my wife looked like until I met you."As I reached out my palm to her, I begged, "Let me show you my previous human life."She made a cautious approach to me and gently placed her hand in mine.As I pressed my forehead against hers, I drew our embrace closer to my chest.While blasting the images in her mind, I closed my eyes and dug deeply into my memories.As I pressed my forehead against hers, I drew our embrace closer to my chest.I buried myself in my memories and blasted the images into her mind with my eyes closed.[Flashback 600 Years Ago] I was just a young Knight Templar at the time, during the Third Crusade.Society regarded me as a noble warrior because I represented our village with great honor.I was rewarded with a great deal of good fortune for my family, which was a magical experien

Catelyn gasped as I slowly brought us back to the present moment.Her lips were parted and her eyes were full of tears.As she swallowed the lump in her throat, she felt a heaving in her chest.She cautiously stepped away from me as I reached out to touch her face and caress her face.I felt my heart break and closed my eyes.Catelyn, I swear to you.I don't love you because you look like Maura; I love you for who you are.You are not viewed by me as a specter from my past.I consider you to be my accomplice for what's in store.I adore how disobedient you are and how you push me to be better.I adore your generous spirit and sharp wit.You and Maura are so different in so many ways.It means nothing to me that you look like her.Your heart contrasts from hers, and I need your heart and your spirit.Please have faith in me.I could see the conflict in Catelyn's face as she examined me.She had no idea how to feel or process the information I had provided.I hadn't told anyone about Maura or how I fel

As Rafael's laughter reverberated far away, Valerian paced the floor.As he punched through the stone wall, Valerian's eyes were red with rage.He didn't even seem to be bothered by his actions, which made me gasp from the damage.He needed to know that what he was doing wasn't right, so I didn't want to talk to him while he was furious.Rafael should be grateful that he saved my life.I stopped him in his tracks by remaining before him like a blockade.As he turned his head and glared at me, Valerian furrowed his brows.I didn't budge despite the fact that he was mentally telling me to get out of his way.Valerian, you ought to show him mercy.I pleaded, biting my bottom lip to stop it from trembling, "I wouldn't be alive if he didn't break free from his chains."He laughed.He didn't do it to save you!Catelyn, he wanted to hurt you!"That's not right!"He gave a head shake.I know Rafael better than you do, and I know you are too ignorant to comprehend this!His motives were not admirable.I f

We stared at each other for a few minutes while standing apart, panting from the run.Valerian was correct about him from the beginning," I thought.It became increasingly clear to me that Rafael was a perilously self-centered individual as I spent more time with him.He only cared about himself.He would go to absurd lengths to demonstrate that he could defeat Valerian, and once he had achieved his goal, he would come up with various justifications for his actions.While I foolishly smuggled him blood bags and thought of him as my friend, he probably had already planned the escape several weeks prior.When I asked, he played it as though he had been doing me a favor all along and took me hostage when it was convenient for him.I had considered leaving Valerian's home a huge amount in those most recent couple of days, yet when I was out I begun to believe that I hadn't exactly needed to leave.At least not yet, and certainly not in this manner.My hair was blown into my eyes as the wind sudde
THE NIGHTMARE Chapter 80
I fell on a thick vine that was hidden in the soil as we were returning to the farmhouse.I rolled into the brush after a violent collision with the ground.My cheek was gashed by the impact.As he dusted me off, Rafael rushed to my side and lifted me up, but when he saw that my wound was bleeding, his kindness changed.He put the blood in his mouth after wiping it with his fingertip.As the taste of the liquid melted him, he closed his eyes.His body's black veins began to throb as his fangs extended from his gums.I shuddered when I saw him because his eyes were a fiery red when he opened them.“Rafael?”With a pleading tone, I whispered.As he climbed up on top of me, he let out a growl.His predatory posture made me gasp in fear.As he pressed his body against me, his lust for blood was taking over.I pushed him away from me when I started to panic, but it didn't help.He slammed me to the ground with a firm grip on my wrists.As he sniffed my hair and neck, he clung to my body with his hips.
THE NIGHTMARE Chapter 81
I couldn't tell if it was Catelyn's cry when Rafael took her or mine when I heard a high-pitched scream.My throat felt dry and my head hurt.My nerves felt more alive than they had in days as I inhaled the air, which felt like needles in my blood.I quickly twisted and punched the wall with my right hand.I didn't feel any pain despite the fact that my skin tore and my knuckles began to bleed.Physically, at least.My pupil center felt dilated and my eyes were completely red.They were completely black, and I didn't even need to look in a mirror to see it.My claws, which extended from my fingernails, felt harder and sharper than ever before, and my canine teeth gradually grew into fangs.I turned around and punched the wall once more as I could feel my muscles getting stronger.Rafael grabbed her.in front of me right now.With trepidation in my teeth, I swung and turned.Catelyn's face had frozen in shock, indicating that she too had been caught off guard, and I had not anticipated that move.

"That way!"As he disappeared into the woods to my right, I heard Ivan yell.I fled in his direction.Over the following few days, my attraction to Rafael grew stronger.I wanted to give myself to him more and more as we talked and cuddled by the fire.He treated me with such kindness, and when he spoke, I could sense his admiration in his words.My heart was only filled with lust for Rafael, and my thoughts of Valerian were slowly drifting away.It was so exciting, but I felt out of control.I acted solely based on my feelings rather than on logic.It felt thrilling.I was at ease.One evening, our relationship filled in warmed energy.As we snuggled on the bed, he held me close to his chest.Rafael brushed my hair with his fingers and kissed my forehead as I was getting ready to sleep.As I slowly slid my hand down to his bare, masculine chest, I gently stroked his cheek with my palm.His eyes were a stunning dark blue and his skin was lightly tanned, as if the sun had kissed him.His gaze subme
