A long love affair that lasted for several years without any results, everyone thought that Keelin was the one who sacrificed the most, loved the most but few people knew, the first person to be touched was Lars, the man who stand in power and money.
More than three hundred years ago, the noblest vampire, the first son of the vampire ruler of the east, Lars Ramos was born. Born to be the one above all, with noble blood in him, Lars despised everything, not letting anyone in his eyes. He only aims for money and power, not interested in anything else.
An arrogant, conceited prince gradually grew up in the fear of everyone. Of course, it's not natural that people treat Lars like that. He is a vampire with extremely powerful and rare abilities. At his peak, he alone could push up to a hundred vampires, something that few even the king of the time, Stephen Ramos, couldn’t do.
Until Lars' 131st birthday, a dark force suddenly appeared, attacking the eastern land. Because of disrespecting the enemy, Lars was poisoned by them, losing his ability to fight. Without Lars, the eastern land was like a tiger that lost its wings and was quickly overthrown by the other force. More than half of the Ramos family died, and Lars was taken away by his father.
After a hundred years of living in the dark, no longer a noble prince, no longer the person that people meet people fear, Lars's life has completely changed. Hidden patiently, steadfastly, trying to change, finally came the day when Lars Ramos turned the tide, brought down the other forces, and avenged the dead. But times have changed, the previously deserted land now has the appearance of more people. Lars successfully avenged but lost his aim to continue, he said goodbye to his father and left. The Ramos family chose to live in seclusion, completely disappearing, leaving no information behind.
It took Lars a few more decades to get used to the change of time, to build a completely new 'Ramos', while hiding his true identity. But at the most crucial moment, one of his trusted vampires chose to betray.
Lars loses everything for the second time, and this is when he meets his destiny, Keelin Morales.
Lars is wandering everywhere, with no home, no relatives. Those whom he had previously considered as ants that could be trampled at will, could now step on him without fear. He could go to find his father, but he didn't want to, wearing a failed face to find his father who was once a king? He can not do it.
Once every few days, street thugs come to Lars to insult and beat him. He can protest but he doesn't do it, he doesn't want to do it, he feels like he deserves it. Then suddenly one day, the continuous beatings suddenly stopped in the middle, a little girl from nowhere ran to stand in front of him, clearly saying:
"You guys can't hit anymore, hitting people is not good" The clear, innocent voice is easy to see in small girls, but it attracts Lars in a strange way.
The thugs did not care at first but when they saw her uniform, they stopped
“Opal Noble School? School for the rich?"
“Hey, let's go, touching this brat is troublesome. Rich people are not easy to play"
They whispered to each other, then glanced sideways at Lars and pulled each other out of the alley
Only the two of them remained. At this time, the little girl's legs showed a trembling expression, and fell to her knees, muttering:
"Phew… they're gone... I finally managed to do something on my own."
Lars' eyes were always following her every move. Waiting for the little girl to calm down, he said”
"Hey"
"Huh?" The girl jumped, her eyes frightened.
"What's your name?" Lars leaned against the wall, his long hair hiding the blurred red light in his eyes.
The girl pursed her lips and did not speak, her face could not hide the fear. She still remembers her mother's advice, not to arbitrarily reveal personal information to strangers.
Not getting an answer, Lars wasn't angry either. Looking at that round, soft face, he suddenly felt happier.
“Then call you Cherub for now. Come here.”
“Is… is something wrong?” Being given a new name, Cherub still has no other reaction than fear
“You, come here” Lars repeated again.
Cherub hesitated but drew closer. She thought, after all, it was the person she had just saved, it would be okay.
Seeing the little girl slowly approach, Lars smiled. He took the teardrop necklace down from his neck and placed it in Cherub's hand. This was not a spontaneous act, he felt that this girl was his destiny.
“This is a return to saving lives. Thank you.” Perhaps for the first time in his life Lars said thank you so sincerely.
Cherub looked down at the bracelet, her eyes hazy, unsure of what she was thinking.
Lars was just about to continue when Cherub suddenly said:
"I see you are not like them, don't waste time in this place anymore. My mother said life is too short, if you don't know how to appreciate and enjoy it, it will be a pity."
"I'm not like you, my life is really long" Lars said in a low voice. Unlike humans, a vampire's life can be said to be immortal, so it doesn't matter how he lives.
But who would have thought, Cherub suddenly raised her voice:
"So you have more opportunities than others, why waste it? Don't you want anything? Or don't you like anything?"
Lars looked at Cherub silently. He is not a child, he has wanted a lot and has achieved all of them. But what does he like… does he like anything? Lars' eyes gradually became profound, it seemed that he had already begun to like something.
Ding! Suddenly the clock sounds.
Cherub was startled, as if remembering something, she said quickly:
“I'm still in the process of learning, I do not know as much as you, but I know for sure if you just waste your life here, it won't do any good. This world has a lot of interesting things, why don't you try? This bracelet, I accept this, as if you don't owe me any more… so I have to go, bye.” Before Lars could stop her, Cherub ran as fast as she could out of the alley, onto a luxury car, and left.
After Cherub's other words, Lars got up to brush his clothes, he already knew what he needed to do. The girl said it was right, he was wasting his life for nothing.
Lars looked in the direction Cherub was running without hiding the smile in his eyes.
“You think my Lars Ramos life is so cheap? No more debt? Ha, we will be meeting soon.” When he said that, Lars himself did not expect this to be the first and last time he would see Cherub. After that day, even if he had successfully created a brand-new Ramos, he still could not find that Cherub girl.
For nearly three hundred years, Lars knew that he liked a person, but then he missed that person. Six years later, for the second time, he met the girl that caught his attention, Keelin Morales. Fate does not happen twice, but Lars has no way to check if Keelin is Cherub or not, he can only follow the call of his heart. Learning from the previous experience, he did not let the opportunity slip away, but he also did not know how to hold it.
Fortunately, Lars later found out that Keelin also had feelings for her, and she did not even hesitate to show it.
But then, an incident happened, at that senior party, Keelin got drunk.
It was not that Keelin was intentionally drunk, but she was drunk by her friends.And Lars, the quiet student at that time looked at her so drunk that her face turned red, so he couldn't control himself.After that night, Lars immediately regretted it. He was afraid that she would hate him because of this accident and avoid him. But unexpectedly, the situation completely deviated from Lars's prediction, Keelin took advantage of this incident to force him to get married.'Forced' but Lars was overjoyed, for the first time in nearly three hundred years he felt that joy, a joy that spread from within. But in both joy and fear, Lars did not forget, that he was a vampire, but Keelin was just an ordinary human, two people incapable of coming together. He wanted to be comfortable in love with her, but he dared not approach her. Therefore, despite being married for three years, he still kept his cold attitude and never slept with her again.Seeing Keelin helpless and sad, Lars was heartbroken
Isolde didn't think Keelin would take such a sudden move. She fell to the floor, rolled her eyes, and looked up at Keelin in shock, her eyes filled with anger and hatred. "You …" "You what?" Keelin smirked, she looked at Isolde fearlessly and said: “If a servant is not as fast as a dog, what is the need of a servant? I'd rather buy a dog to run, it's more effective than you, it's cheap and reasonable, and it's not like someone else uses the eyes of the enemy to look at the owner. Sassy" Keelin's steely voice and strong aura not only shocked Isolde, but also made Sera dumbfounded. She didn't know that Keelin also had this side, and for a moment a feeling of joy spread in her heart. It seems that the boss really has eyes for people, this girl is really not as weak as she seems. After a few seconds of surprise, Sera gave a reassuring smile and then stood to the side, leaving the decision to Keelin in full control. After receiving a slap from Keelin, seeing Sera's humorous smile an
Hearing the familiar voice, Keelin remained in the same position, not turning her head. Only Martin turned to look, he bowed his head:“Mr. Ramos, good morning. I'm the garden designer, Martin.”Lars glanced at Martin and then at Keelin, but all he saw was her straight back.Lars walked over to the tea table, still wearing his suit, apparently, he came looking for Keelin as soon as he got back from a business trip. But unlike the image he imagined in his head, Keelin was no longer happy, running to the gate to welcome him like before. Lars couldn't help but feel disappointed.Sensing Martin backing away and Lars pausing beside the table, Keelin flipped through the catalog pages and said coldly:"You are home? Welcome back”Although it was 'welcome', Lars couldn't hear any cheerfulness in those words, and suddenly felt angry."Aren't you here to welcome me?"At this time, Keelin looked up at Lars, no longer with a passionate gaze, no longer attached, nostalgic, but simply like long-tim
Seeing Keelin's disappointed look, Lars felt as if he had fallen into an abyss. He took a deep breath and spoke in a serious voice:"Kee, I didn't choose to pursue you because you knew my true identity at all."“Then why?” Keelin asked immediately, tears streaming down her cheeks."Calm down, Kee"Lars helped Keelin sit down on the sofa. Looking at her red eye sockets, his heart ached, he reached out his hand to wipe the tears that were falling from her eyes in a very gentle way.Seeing Lars care about her like that, Keelin really didn't feel familiar. These things she had dreamed of before, but she did not have them. Then why would he suddenly act like this without any purpose?Lars got Keelin a glass of water. Waiting for her to finish drinking, he timidly asked"Are you calm?"Keelin didn't answer, just nodded.Seeing that, Lars whispered in relief. He reached his hand toward her neck.Seeing this action of Lars, Keelin was startled, and moved her body slightly to the right, stretc
Keelin stopped, she turned to face Lars and said seriously "Truth? Lars, so let me ask you one thing, why is it your destiny as a vampire to be an ordinary girl like me? You're immortal but I'm not, can that be considered a lifetime? It's my life, not yours." “Keelin, no, that…” Lars wants to explain but Keelin doesn’t let him do that "Enough. Let's stop here, Lars." Keelin said emphatically, "I'm human, so I'm going to live with human customs. Yes, I used to love you and married you, but that is the past. Now we're divorced, that's all, nothing matters anymore." With that, Keelin untied the necklace in front of Lars' panicked gaze. “If this necklace is already yours, I will return it to you. And, by the end of three years, we won't owe anyone anything. Okay?" “No way.” The necklace that Keelin had just taken off was immediately waved by Lars and returned to stay on Keelin's neck. "You want to deny the relationship with me, that will never happen. " Keelin looked at Lars, her e
He walked over and put his arm around Keelin's waist and said:“If she wants it, I will immediately arrange the wedding, twice as big as before.” Because that time was a hasty wedding, and Lars always tried to suppress his emotions, so everything was organized very simply, it doesn't take long, and friends aren't invited much either. This is the thing that Lars feels sorrow at and regrets the most, he always wants to make up for Keelin with a big wedding but has not had the opportunity.It's just that, when this word fell on Clara's ears, it was like an atomic bomb“You… what are you saying? Aren't you two divorced? Don't you just like her?"Keelin pushed Lars's hand away, and she turned the other way, not bothering to face him. Lars looked at her indulgently and said: “It is true that we are divorced but who says we cannot remarry. As for the fact that I don't like her… who said that? I've never said that I don't like her before." “But you… your attitude…” Clara frowned in disappr
Eira didn't say anything specific, but both of them knew exactly what she meant. Valor liked Keelin even before Keelin met Lars, but unfortunately, Keelin chose Lars. That's why Valor chose to leave this city, otherwise, he couldn't bear to see Keelin constantly entwined with Lars.Eira paused for a moment and then gently advised:“Kee, I know you have a reason to stay at Ramos mansion but whatever it is, you and Lars are divorced now. So, give yourself and those around you another chance, okay?” Eira didn't mention Valor by name, but Keelin knew she was referring to him.If it was before, Keelin wouldn’t hesitate to refuse, but now it's not like that anymore.“Okay, I'll think about it” Keelin was silent for a long time then answeredReceiving that answer, Eira almost jumped up. In the past, every time she mentioned this, Keelin would definitely dismiss it but this time she 'needs to think', this is not a definite answer, but it also shows that Valor has a chance.“Fine, then you sho
The next day, as 'promised', Clara came again. Seemingly familiar with this place, as soon as she arrived, Clara went straight to Lars's home office on the second floor. And one room away was Keelin's bedroom.Just as Clara walked in, Keelin came out of the room.After spending a 'salty' night with Lars, Keelin still did not change her attitude. However, now she didn't hesitate to show her distaste for Clara. Because at least she was somewhat aware of Lars' feelings for her, and at the same time Keelin herself still had feelings for Lars. Then why does she have to be patient with Clara's malice?“Lady Morales, good morning” Clara said a friendly greeting, but Keelin nodded with a smirk. She couldn't help but hear the irony in Clara's 'friendly greeting'. It sounds like Clara has changed but it's not, she's just trying to remind her that Keelin is divorced.What she meant was that now that Keelin is in the Ramos mansion, so what? She is no longer the real Mrs. Ramos, she is just ‘a lad
