Chapter 15
It's been several months now but, I still remember that day when I laid siege to the Witches Kingdom. I thought I would feel "the joy of sweet revenge" but, I felt absolutely nothing. My only short-lived joy was knowing I had finally caught Bathilda, only for it to die after our battle, her sly maneuvers that outdid me, only for her to disappear into the water below. I truly miss Garrett, I never learned what happened to him. I went back several times for a whole year after the hunting trip and never found his body. I had no idea if those freaks ate him or buried him. They did not burn him, there was no smoke…He had just vanished.
I am thankful looking back that I found Victor and made a friend. I thought he would have contacted me after I dropped him off at the "Sirens Call". I never expected him to separate from me so soon. I checked in with Maria and to my surprise, he met one of the girls there who is also a Vampire. She is studying Medicine at "Parkside UniverRelated chapters

It's been 5 years since Charles and I have separated, and I am once again living in England. I needed time away, I still have my places in Ithaca and Chicago. I closed up Ithaca a while ago and hired housekeepers to tend the property in my absence, I only come to the house if I am in New York on business, I still have a book store that is working there. My Chicago home Charles checks on for me since he lives close by while heading to our place of work. Charles became Vice President of the company after Garrett's disappearance, and I do not regret the decision, he has done an amazing job. As president, CEO and owner, I am enjoying how much "Eldridge Books" is flourishing, not only in America but, also in England. I need to make these trips every so often, and it is good to return to the old country for myself, to refresh. I have moved my main store from London to Liverpool. I tried returning to London, but the memories of our life were too real, and everything kept hitting me
The Beloved Chapter 17
We drive down the familiar road towards the marina where my yacht is kept. If the girls are not that familiar with me, it does not appear so, they are in for the shock of their life. I personally cannot wait for this exciting adventure. I have been longing to take my yacht out for some time. I cannot wait to show Luci and Molly around the yacht, or later in the evening when I have Lucinda alone in the cabin. I have grown to really care about her, spending time with her has helped me start to feel normal again. I know that will never fully be the case but, she's given me a sense of belonging that I have not felt in so many years.As we exit the car at the shoreline both of them look around in awe at the docks "Where are you taking us?" Molly asks "You will see" is all I say. "There is also a small cafe here, and they serve the best food. Their spotted dick is really good however, my favorite is

Unknown P.O.VI sit here inside this room trying to imagine how everything I have worked so hard for has gone wrong. Everything was going so well, my plan was working to perfect fruition! Did I mean to cause the pain that Hunter is going through? No, not in the slightest, however, that is life, sometimes a man has to go through pain to find themselves, to unlock the true nature of the person lurking underneath the facade. I know his true self, he is ruthless, a natural killer. Years of his military experience as a sniper said it all, not this so-called “calm and peaceful” person that he is trying desperately to be. I sent my spies out to keep eyes on him long ago. I wanted to test him an
The Beloved Chapter 19
It is a beautiful morning, I cannot contain my happiness I feel. Last weekend, the yacht cruise I shared with them was heavenly. It has helped me to develop a deeper relationship with Lucinda and Molly. Being with Lucinda, sharing every experience and every passionate moment with her has awoken my long-dead heart. I know now that she was who I should have married if only I had met her first. Her fierceness, her strength, her love calls to my soul. I start to think of marriage again.As I am lost in thought Molly walks towards me interrupting my reverie "Hunter, I have been wondering something" I turn towards her. "Yes, Molly, what is it?" she looks at the ground shyly, I gaze at her, trying to compel her to continue. Honestly, there is something very special about Molly, I do not know if it is the result of her taking some of my blood to heal her, no matter how small amount but, I cannot hear her thoughts, and none of my gifts work on her, she's like a psychological shield.

The Beloved Chapter 20
Unknown P.O.VIt has been several weeks since I sent my spies to track down Hunter in the Liverpool area. As I am sitting in my lounge my mate comes in with my other love. It is not natural for a Vampire to have two mates however, I do not live by society's expectations. The moment I met Veronica one night, I claimed her as mine. I had known her for a long time, I just needed the moment to act. She was strong and vibrant to survive the transformation. I open my arms for them, they both embrace me and start to kiss me, sucking on my neck. Veronica bites and feeds while I kiss my other mate. "Shall we go upstairs, sir?" Veronica asks me while the other starts to feed. "No, I am expecting news back from the trackers who I sent out to look for Hunter Eldridge" Veronica looks at me in question, recognition slight flashes across her eyes before it is quickly gone, I worry whether she is recovering her memory until she shrugs and snuggles into my side.Just

After hours of driving, we arrived in the Highlands of Scotland. I am looking forward to the weekend of camping with my two beauties. I am falling so in love with Lucinda, we have never talked about her past however, after the revelations that were unveiled in the car, I feel it is important before we move forward with our lives.I am starting to suspect that Molly is more than meets the eye, in fact, I am not sure if I heard correctly but, when she was fighting with her mother, it almost seemed like she growled. That is not a human response, what is Molly? Who is her real father? Do I have anything to worry about? I cannot escape the feeling that he's a supernatural creature. For years I thought he was perhaps human, however, when her recent behavior changes, I am starting to question it. As her eighteenth birthday approaches she is starting to slowly change.I watch her from the car as she walks off, she's grown into an elegant young woman. She is well-groomed, tall, s

I hang up the phone with that filthy bloodsucker, and I am in a state of rage. How dare he call me and taunt me. How dare he tell me such wretched things! I have no idea what harm this will do to my current family if it is true. Pure-blooded wolves do not take kindly to half breeds, since I am Alpha and this happened so long ago this means that Molly is rightfully my heir. I have no idea how my mate that has been by my side all these years is going to accept this. First, before I make any sudden moves, I needed to find out the truth. I call for my Beta "Xavier!" he runs into the room "Yes Alpha!" I deeply inhale and let it out, I do not know how to do this but, I must. "I need you to do me a favor, I just received a call from a nemesis, a Vampire, you know who" his eyes go wide "Yes Alpha, he is detestable, why is he bothering you?" I close my eyes and shake my head. "I need to tell you something but, you can't tell Luna! I will once I know the truth of what he said on t

The next day we all spent time together but, there was something definitely off with Lucinda.I continued to feel someone's presence lurking in the trees, and I knew that it would not be long before I found out who it was. Judging by Lucinda's reactions, the way her eyes kept on darting into the trees and denying that something was bothering her. She knew exactly what might be going on, and I did not know how to make her tell me without using my mental abilities. I knew though if she saw through that she would hate me. I was left waiting for her to open up but, with Lucinda, that could be never.As night fell, the girls started to prepare to retire into their tents to fall asleep. I, however, do not necessarily need sleep, it is during this time that I leave Lucinda and Molly to hunt. I decide to take a drive out of the area, I have already realized by the pungent odor of wet dog that there is a Werewolf clan nearby. I wondered all day why Lucinda was off belie
