A Scandal With The Vampire

Darren's Pov My cold heart beat slowly as I neared Ava's grave. I looked around the empty gravesite and I dropped a white bouquet at the foot of the grave. Today marked the twenty fourth year since Ava died and not a day went by where I didn't blame myself for her death.She was the only woman I planned to marry, throughout my eight hundred years of existing as a vampire on earth.She was the only woman who wasn't affected by my curse.I felt hot tears roll down my face as the memory of Ava's painful death flooded through my head like it happened yesterday.I was there. It all happened too fast but I stood and watched my fiance get crushed by a red truck while she tried to help a pregnant lady cross the road. Vampires of my kind were blessed with uncanny abilities to read minds, hypnosis, unfathomable speed and strength. I had all these abilities but I couldn't save the only person I had ever loved.I felt a burning sensation deep in my chest and I clutched my shirt as the burn sprea

Sloane's PovI woke up with a jolt and I looked around my surrounding. I inhaled and exhaled deeply, calming my frightened heart. I had just woken up from a terrifying nightmare which I hadn't had for a while now.Reeling from the fear, I reached out for the light switch by the side of my bed and put it on.As the light filled my massive room, my gaze scoured round as I searched for the unknown. Then I let out a relieved sigh because I found no one...It's been two days since I met the vampire at the mortuary and since then, I've been feeling on edge and looking behind me in an unusual way.And just today, I had a dream where I was being chased by him. He caught up with me in no time and showed off his fangs. He was about to dig into my neck when I woke up from the nightmare.I let out another deep sigh as I grabbed my phone and put it on. It was four in the morning and I knew I should go back to bed but I couldn't.I was too frightened and I also felt anxious as I thought of the big
