(EL’s POV)
"Father, I'm not trying to imply. But I think it's hopeless if we keep on forcing the Curie's to find us the cure. It’s been almost eight years and no definite result has been done. Don't you think it's time for us to release them?"
But I didn't expect my Father's response to me, he started laughing meaningfully. It’s not the laugh he gave to me awhile ago.
"I think I've raised you too merciful, EL." Maybe I am, but I'm just doing what I know is right.
He shook his head at me, our eyes met, and he cracked another smile. "Your eyes are just like your Mother's and both s
(Dr. Albert Curie POV)Samantha tells her stories to prevent her from going outside. She had numerous attempts going out in the past that almost killed her. If it wasn't for El, she wouldn't have returned to us alive. The Grand Alpha warned Samantha to keep an eye on our daughter, or else, it wouldn't be their fault if something bad happened to Athena.I carried him and she quickly wrapped her arms around my neck. She rested her head on my shoulder and whispered softly. "I wish I'm big enough to fight those monsters. I want us to have an adventure outside, Dad." a courageous remarked from her but it was a pitiful line. How I wish too.
(EL’s POV)They will be going to fight with me. So, I need to give it to them. I massaged my neck and closed my eyes. To add more challenge, I keep my eyes closed when I'm sparring with Joaquin's men.Anticipation with the sounds they made. Listening carefully… controlled breathing. The rhythm of my body dances
(EL’s POV)After the meeting, we headed to a first-class jewelry store, humans and vampires both love to lather themselves with this kind of stuff. Little do they know that we already conquered the jewelry business. This has been my Father's way to finally rid ourselves away from the discrimination we have experienced in the past.Again, if something feral happened, it is the doing of the werewolves who have met their affliction. Their uncontrollable insanity. The jewelries sparkled inside the glass containers. Some of our personnel here happened to be vampires. Still, money is all they need for them to live in this world. Money was important in the world of busine
(Dr. Albert POV)"They will kill Athena if... I failed to make the serum before your birthday." he took a deep sigh. I lowered my head while my hands were tightly gripping the railings."Don't worry Dr. Albert. I'll talk to my father about that." I don’t know if I can hold his words. "EL... What if your father does not listen to you?!" my desperation suddenly came out. El got quiet until..."Dr. Albert. What do you think should I do?" I know that i shouldn't drag him into this, he hasn't done anything bad to us. I should be blamed for all of these. The werewolves wouldn't have kidnapped us if I refused to
(EL’s POV)"Big brother?" it was obvious that she wasn't expecting the size of it. "Open it." she opened it in front of her visitors. It was a beautiful set of silver arrows, just in case a werewolf tries to attack her. Why I think that? She raised her look on me. "It's beautiful El... But I thought your gift was inside a smaller box." I made a half smile upon hearing it. I know that she was referring to the necklace I gave Athena. She was with me when I bought it."Yana, please introduce me to your brother.""Me too." the gi
(EL’s POV)"You're not in your proper age yet EL to act like that, but it seems that you're already trying to challenge me." I massaged the back of my neck."No father.” I deny. “I'm just thinking trying to protect our people.""Son, do you want to return to the time when our people was being discriminated by everyone?""No father, but they have to respect us. It would be better if Yana celebrates outside of our territory. It seems that the vampires are starting to disrespect us again." my father didn't answer immediately, he is thinking thoroughly.
(Dr. Albert POV)"You've been here for how many years? Seven, Dr. Albert? And for that number of years your trials have all been a failure. Seven years? I think the Grand Alpha's patience have been more than enough regarding your research. But unfortunately, all things come to end. Same thing goes to the Grand alpha's patience. Prepare yourselves, the life of your daughter will just be until midnight.""You insolent fools!" Samantha yelled at him. I held onto Samantha's hand and guided her and our daughter inside the laboratory. I closed the door behind them.I faced Lupoz and approached him. I looked straight into his eyes... Took a deep breath."It would be best if you get out of our sight." It wasn't a question but a direct firm order, I'm sick and tired of the threats this old prick has been giving us."Keep in mind about
(Dr. Albert POV)I'm sorry Samantha, I know that I have promised you that I'll be able to get you out of here. I'm sorry that I put you in this situation. To my sweet daughter... I don't want anything bad happen to you. For the last seven years this room has been the only world you had. This is all my fault. I thought I could make you proud with my achievements as a scientist. But what I am doing right now is the complete opposite. I'm about to kill my own child. I never had a change to let my daughter experience the outside world.Until the door opened, it was Athena."Dad, it's time for dinner!" her cheerful voice halted me. I looked at the window and noticed that it was about to get dark. I sighed deeply and looked at her. This is all my fault. In
