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.
Ryan and Eric seemed to be having a good time enjoying their meal when a shooting spree broke out.Everyone in the restaurant scrambled in different directions in fear of their life, everyone was screaming in fear.Ryan and Eric weren't left out, they also ran and hid behind one of the pillars in the restaurant.Eric held Ryan against the wall protectively by her waist, they both thought they were safe but soon had to find another hiding Place as it seemed the gunshots were all directed to their hiding spot.Eric acted as a shield for Ryan and dragged her away from the pillar to the bar stand.He crouched next to her but had to leave her to rescue a panicking old man who stood adjacent to them. The old man was too shocked to make a move so Eric had to drag him to safety.Whilst saving the old man, Eric spotted a woman and her child in a vulnerable state, they were a bit far from safety so he had to also save them.He returned to the position he left Ryan but didn't meet her there, he
Ryan placed the call to the pack to inform them of the attack and ready them in case she was attacked again. The person she called quickly reached out to Alpha Lucas informing him that Ryan just called and was attacked some minutes back.Alpha Lucas got worried and kept blowing up Ryan's phone with calls but Ryan didn't pick up.This further got him on edge as he got scared of her being attacked again and not being able to call the pack to ensure her safety.He went into the confines of his study room pacing back and forth hoping that she would arrive soon or maybe return his call.An hour passed and she still wasn't back, he sauntered into the pack large living room pouring himself a cold glass of drink.He was on edge and each time he heard footsteps, he'll leap to his feet hoping it was her.He was on his third drink when he decided to call her again. He dialed her number and her ringtone surprisingly sounded at the entrance.He ran out immediately and saw her standing on the balc
Lord Romeo tightened his fist and hit the wall so hard that there was the rubble of stones. The living room was shaking and Romeo didn't stop. He was screaming very loud. Cassie sensed the violent movement and quickly traced her way downstairs. "Romeo!" Cassie called out to him after walking into the earthquake in the living room. "What's happening here?" At the sound of her voice, Lord Romeo took his hands off the wall. "Stay out of this!" he told Cassie without looking at her. He turned around and started moving towards his men. She walked up to him and aggressively turned him around. She looked into his eyes and saw fire. Romeo was in a fit of rage. About a dozen of his men were kneeling on the floor with their heads bowed. Romeo walked away from her and move closer to the men. "We are sorry my Lord." stammered their leader while lifting his head. "You coward." Romeo fired back and kicked the man in the belly. The
Growling, Lord Valentine yanked Hera up the ground, tossing her onto the fluffy bed. She landed on her back and he attacked her instantly with his tongue swooping onto her coochie, lapping up her juices like a thirsty dog. They had been sneaking around lately, and seeing that they both had a thing with each other, they decided to take it to the next step without anyone knowing about it.Lord Valentine had invited Hera to his place and even though she was reluctant at first because she didn't know how it'll end, she still went anyway. When she arrived at his place, he made sure no one saw her come into his private room, so that suspicions or rumours would not arise. Gossips moved fast, and he wasn't ready for all that. Besides, he wanted to protect Hera's image, and also not let Alpha Luca know about them just yet. That explained why he had gotten extremely angry when Pete tried to hurt Hera the other day, and he mistakenly killed him. He did save her because she was Alpha Luca's siste
"Eh? Are you joking with me or what?"She looked around to make sure no one was close before speaking. "Do I look stupid to you? The fact that I came myself and didn't send someone here should show you how serious I am.""Then why are you here? What concern is that to me?""You're the father."He chuckled. "This must be some sort of joke. I am not the Father of your child. The last and first time we slept together was like seven months ago, and you're just showing up with claims of pregnancy now?""If you don't know, faeries don't get pregnant like humans or you sort. It takes months for our eggs to fertilize, that's why it took so long. I have started seeing the signs and judging from the time, you have to be the father.""No.""Yes."Hera rolled out from the bed after Lord Valentine left the room. She sighed in relief, laughing to herself. She loved the thrill that came from being with him. She relaxed on the bed, smiling to herself. She was just about to close her eyes to rest, wai
Alpha Luca had a smile on his face when he heard the nose of the man beneath him give a satisfying crunch. "Now which other place do you want me to bring you pain?" He raised his foot and stepped on the open wound on his ankle, where a bone seemed to be jutting out. The man vibrated, like a woman having an orgasm, except this time in excruciating pain. It was a crazy sight watching one crying like a child while the other had a big smile on his face. Alpha Luca did like inflicting pain on those who cross him. You could call him the devil, punishing the offenders at every opportunity he got."No more please," he begged, trying to crawl away from the Alpha with the one good hand he has. John, and the fellow bartenders, with the strippers were the only ones who remained untouched, huddled together, shaking with fear in a corner of the room. The club was a mess now, with broken tables and chairs, blood everywhere, with men writhing in pain. Alpha Luca gave the man trying to escape from hi
"Orders from who?" He yelled. "Answer me, I don't have all time of the day!" The man looked around fearfully as if he was waiting for a savior to come to his aid, but no one was around to help him, it was close to midnight and everyone knew it wasn't safe to come to such a place by that time. There have been cases of rape, kidnapping, and murder in that area, so only a fool would come there by that time, especially unprotected. His fellow gang who should have come to his aid had all abandoned him. Close to the door of the clubs was where they had packed their bike, it was still there, abandoned by them. "Okay, if you don't give me a reply in three seconds, I'm going to pluck your right eye.""Please, if I say it, he would kill me." The man begged. "That's what he said in the papers. He is watching over us, he knows our deepest secrets and no one knows how he found out. I have no...I don't know, please, just let me go."Alpha Luca looked at the man in disbelief. If only he knew what th
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. "From one problem
"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.
Flashback.Hera returned to Alpha Luca's mansion drunk and weary. A party was thrown in the human world and she had gone there to have her fill, together with her brother and Lord Valentine. Alpha Luca was the one who suggested they grace the event since there were less interesting things to do at that time in their realm, so they went to the party and Hera got drunk.Hera left the event without Alpha Luca and Lord Valentine's notice. She managed to find her way back home even though she was in a terrible state.When she returned to the mansion, she was greeted by its emptiness and unknown to her, Pete was in the building. She made her way to her brother's room and fell on the couch and after some minutes, she staggered to the bathroom and turned on the shower.Pete had arrived that night earlier than Hera and had parked his car in Luca's garage after completing an assignment. He went into the house and when he walked upstairs, he heard the sound of water flowing from the shower. He t
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
"Now that you guys are cool with each other, can you both share a hug," Eric screamed from afar."Shut up." They both chorused.Hera and Advika had finally reconciled with their argument and Eric couldn't help but sigh in relief.The ladies were beginning to drive him crazy with their uncontrollable banter funny how he wasn't even in the know of what was bringing about the argument.They continued their walk with the human they didn't kill tailing with them. They rounded a corner and saw the dangerous trio coming toward them.They stopped and waited for them to catch up with them."Any progress, " Hera asked when they got to where they were."Nothing yet." 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
When they succeeded in dispelling the dark spirits they'd invoked, the witches fell weakly to the floor.Cassie had also fallen unconscious. Some of the witches outside of the coven who'd been patiently waiting for the success of the ritual heard the thuds and rushed in.They picked each of their sisters and took them back to their rooms, they tended to them throughout the day until they regained their strengths.Cassie was also taken back to her room, she was unconscious for the greater part of the day, she woke up in the evening.She opened her eyes in her room, looked around, and saw she was surrounded by Cara, the witch leader, and two other witches. Cara and the twenty-three other witches regained their strengths and had taken turns in watching after Cassie for the first sign of recovery.It was Cara and the leader's turn with the two other witches when Cassie woke up.She yawned weakly and sat up on the bed."Cara, what's going on?" She was surprised to see them in her room.S
