Cassie is still on the run after killing the man who wanted to assault her.

She had run out of the stall that night with no hope of where to go but she kept running, having in mind that she was running from two different people now.

Her previous abductors and the villagers might come after her when they find out what she had done.

She was still filled in fear of what she had done to the man, never had she imagined she could do something like that.

It all felt absurd to her as she kept replaying the scene in her head. The sudden surge of power she felt coursing through her enabled her to overpower him and pin him down right where he had pinned her.

The image of how his veins throbbed against his neck and how it felt so inviting that she had to lean in and bite it open, how she had easily bitten him and also sucked him dry.

She was almost going crazy with the thought. The thought of her being a monster.

What scared her most was the thought of what he would have done to her had she not k

    Lord Valentine, Hera and together with Cassie in the back seat of the car drove back to Alpha Luca's mansion. Hera had never met Cassie before and she couldn't explain the feeling of pity she was having towards this stranded woman."Thank you." appreciated Cassie as they were driving to Luca's mansion."You're welcome." replied Hera with a bright smile. Cassie smiled back."Do you think Luca will be happy with this?" Valentine said while adjusting the front mirror. He was referring to Cassie who was hugging her knees with her chest in the back seat."She looks terrified and I have no regrets bringing her with us. She needs help," replied Hera. She turned and caught a glimpse of Cassie's sitting position."Luca might be a hothead but…"" He is already a hothead." Valentine cut in."You all are." retorted Hera. She was referring to Alpha Luca, Lord Valentine and Romeo.Cassie didn't speak. She placed her head on both her knees and kept squeezing her dress.Valentine stole a glance

    Lord Romeo followed Mario into the VIP lounge. A group of half-naked women were sprawled on the couch while others were lying on the carpet. Romeo caught a glimpse of another petite red-haired just like the one he nearly ran after earlier. She blinked at him and he missed his step.Can't she see what I'm wearing? Romeo thought on the assumption that the petite red-haired was flirting with him even when he was dressed as a beggar. "Watch where you are going" screamed the young man Romeo had collided with. Romeo took one more glance at the beauty before apologising. "I'm sorry.""Here!" Mario called out to him after turning around and noticing that he was yet to catch up. Romeo could tell that Mario was drunk. It was evident in the way he talked and how he staggered back to the VIP lounge to return to his spot.While following him to his isolated area of the lounge, Romeo surveyed the area and took count of Mario's men who were in the room. Three of them were standing by the doo

    Upon their return, Lord Romeo was the first to get inside the house. He banged the door open, his mind scattered over the thoughts of everything going on at the moment. Getting in, he didn't notice anything or any change in his environment, since that was his place and he was already used to it. Besides, it wasn't like he was expecting anything new, so he just entered without looking around."Romeo!" A voice called him and he paused. He recognized that voice anywhere and anytime, and he was only surprised to hear it here.Cassie? He thought to himself before slowly turning to face whoever it was that just called him."Cassie?" He called as he stared at the female figure before him. It indeed was his Cassie. She was back. Again. But might disappear at any time again, his subconscious mind told him."Yes, it's me, Romeo. It's me." With a glint of joy in her eyes, she rushed to meet him and they hugged each other immediately, which made everyone in the room smile. Lord Romeo however hadn

    The lights were off in Lord Romeo's room, and only the sounds of the creaking bed were heard. Lord Romeo and Cassie we're making love with each other in his room.Cassie was seen cupping her breasts in her palms and playing with them seductively. Then, she seized a nipple in her mouth and sucked it. Romeo sauntered towards her, propelled by want. Within him, he craves the pleasure of plunging his boner into her punani. He had always craved it ever since she died. He had been in love with her so much that it was only her that could give him that type of feeling.The sensation of her fingers caressing his face caused his urge to explode. He whacked her hand off his face, grabbing her neck hard and hauling her towards him until their bodies kissed. Her naked nipples poking his chest drive electric currents through his spine. She pushed his face to meet him and did the strangest thing—she laughed. "Show me the best in you, you vampire!"Romeo surprisingly found that pleasurable! He slapp

    Lord Valentine and Alpha Luca were seen in Alpha Luca's inner room. Therewith was Ryan, as usual. Lord Romeo was back by then, but Cassie was still in his house. Lord Valentine and Alpha Luca had left Mario alone after he passed out, and they haven't gone back to meet him since then. They wanted him to wake up before they continued questioning him again. They had informed the guards in charge of the cell room to let them know whenever he's back to life."But why the shape shifter's realm though?" Ryan suddenly asked out of the blue. "Why were Cassie and Lord Valentine found in the shapeshifter's realm?""Maybe because the person they sent to dig up her grave is from the shapeshifter's realm?" Lord Romeo answered nonchalantly, which made Ryan roll her eyes at him."That's not it," Ryan said after she was done eyeing Lord Romeo in a disgusted manner."Then what is it? Is there something you know and want to tell us?" Alpha Luca asked as he folded his arms. He was seated on his usual cha

    Cassie sprung out of bed and hurried to Lord Romeo's kitchen. She went inside and stood by the kitchen counter. She caressed the counter and smiled brightly after a thought struck her. She will be making breakfast for her beloved Romeo that morning. She tried to move but she was restricted by a burning sensation. She held her neck with her both hands and squeeze her face in discomfort. Her throat was dry and her eyes were beginning to turn red. She staggered to the sink and placed both hands inside the wet sink while bending slightly. She groaned and turned on the tap. She placed her mouth to drink directly from the tap but quickly spill the water out. It tasted bitter. Since when does water taste this horrible? she pondered and made her way to the fridge. "This tastes better," she said after sipping the red wine she had poured into a glass. Even though Cassie was no longer in transition, she was having problems becoming a vampire.

    1 year later."Cassie, are you ready?" Romeo called, taking another glance at this wrist watch. He would never understand what it was about women and preparing. One would expect Cassie to be different because she wasn't a modern woman, but the following months after they had defeated Pete, the two went on to get married and Romeo had taken Cassie to Earth for their honeymoon. He had taken her to all the beautiful places, and to try out all the amazing foods, one thing Cassie had also picked up was the fashion sense of the women of the twenty-first century.At first she had expressed her strong dislike for it, as long as her shock. She would always call every woman she saw in dresses that revealed their cleavage, shoes that showed their ankles, or dresses above knee-length a prostitute, Romeo had to teach her not to call women that, letting her know that time had changed and fashion sense had also. Though, she still called it nonsense most of the time, Romeo could see her slowly taking

    Alpha Luca still lay on the same bed, while the witches performed the ritual, with Ryan by his side. She had refused to leave his side. She sat down on the bed beside him, holding his hands. The witches had tried to get her to leave several times, but she refused.The others have gone to wait outside the room, waiting for good news, nothing else but good news.Cara frowned as she watched the Queen, who was holding Alpha Luca's free arm while muttering a spell under her breath, she could see the look on the Queen's face, she didn't need to ask before she knew there was no improvement. Cara didn't understand why it was so difficult to bring him back, they have done the spell several times in the last hundred years, it was one of the first spells that every teenage witch would learn once she got into high school, but if the Queen herself couldn't do it, then Cara didn't think any other person could."Well, isn't this just great," a friend of hers whispered in her ears.

    "What are we going to do? We can't just sit and watch her die," Alpha Luca said. "Come on," he faced Cara. "Surely there's something you can do, try again.""We've tried...If Pete was alive, we would have been able to do something, but now that he's dead. It's...I don't know. We'll see what we can do, we will try our best.""You have to, s-she can't die.""She won't die, Luca," Alpha Romeo said, placing a comforting arm on his friend's shoulder. "I'm sure we'll find a way, even if we have to turn the world upside down to find a cure for her, we will. Okay?""Yes," Cara assured him. "We will try our best." They were able to talk Alpha Luca into leaving the room so he could give them the privacy they needed to perform the ritual. Ryan was laying on her back, staring straight up at the ceiling, she was the only one in the room at that moment. She could hear voices talking just outside the door, she couldn't recognize them, so she knew it was probably the witches. She couldn't hear the w

    "I'm going to rip your heart out and kill you at this spot today! No going back!" Alpha Luca shouted, glaring at Pete, who lay on the floor in a pool of his blood. He was still alive, but he was in serious pain and he had lost a lot of blood due to the way Alpha Luca had pounced on him.He was about to do what he had just said, when he suddenly stopped, as soon as he heard what Pete just said. He tried so much to not believe it, hoping it wasn't true. He was not ready to lose Ryan, not now, not ever and the thought of her dying scared him a lot. Yet, he couldn't just believe the rogue before him, as he could only be trying to blackmail him into not killing him."What did you just say?" Alpha Luca asked Pete, making sure that he heard what he said right."I said no, you won't! You can't kill me! Because by killing me, you're only going to kill Ryan!" He blurted out as he spat out the blood at Alpha Luca's cloth. This irritated Luca so much, which pushed him to hit Pete's stomach with h

    "Well, well, well," Pete said with a mischievous smile as he stood up from the chair he was sitting on. "If it isn't the dangerous trio, Lord Valentine, Lord Romeo and the one who betrayed me, Alpha Luca." He said the last part and giggled, as he stared daggers at Alpha Luca."Betrayed you?" Alpha Luca said and folded his arms. "I betrayed you, or it was you who betrayed me?"Pete acted like he didn't hear what he said, so he just walked around his chair slowly as he stared at the trio, who were about five feet away and were also staring at him. "I had a feeling you would find me sooner, but it was a shame. I was disappointed that you didn't. I guess you three are getting old after all," he said and chuckled, trying to trigger them to get angry or something. Meanwhile, the trio just stood there staring at him. They were still shocked to see him alive, most especially Lord Valentine. Seeing that they didn't say anything still, he continued. "You three were a bit slower than I thought.

    As soon as the doors of the escape room closed, they realized they had only gotten themselves into more trouble, seeing that there was no way out of it. First, they shouted, but it was only echoing inside the room. Their voices could not reach outside."What is this we have gotten ourselves into?" Lord Valentine asked as they all wandered inside the room. He hit his leg on the walls of the room, but nothing came out of it."Fuck!" Alpha Luca growled as he hit his leg on the walls of the room in anger. Still, nothing moved and nothing changed."Uhm, guys?" Advika called, a look of fear appeared on her face. They didn't give her attention at first, as they were focused on how to leave the room they found themselves in. "Guys!" She exclaimed the second time and with the loudness of her voice, they were able to hear this time, as they turned to look at her."Yes, Advika?" Hera answered, same with the others.This time, she even looked more worried, and she was beginning to look pale with

Lord Romeo replied."We have also not found anything," Advika said.They had also not found the underground realm, they were beginning to be weary with their walks in a circle.Lord Valentine saw the human with them and was puzzled."Who is this?" He asked."We found him on our way here, we took him with us so he can lead us to thei
