~AJ~ I leaned against the window frame, staring out into the darkness as usual. Tiffany's bedroom was empty as I had expected, I had overheard my mate telling her friends about the initiation into the circle that was going to happen tonight. She was so excited that she forgot about my existence. It's not that I am bothered or something, I just feel…I sighed, the only sound I heard was the rustling of trees outside which was satisfactory enough to calm my nerves, my mind wandered back to the conversation I had with my dad earlier.“Bring that creature back to my den!” The more I thought about it the more uneasy I felt.“AJ” The voice was clear and strong and it snapped me out of my daze.Shit!I raised my head to see her standing in the window across from me.A cold chill ran down my spine and it looked like I had been caught doing something I shouldn't have.I was so short of words as I gulped down nothing, I blamed myself for being so lost in thought that I hadn't even heard her
~Tiffany~ I groaned as the alarm rang loudly,“Fridginfucking alarm,” I gritted my teeth as I sluggishly put off the alarm.I tried to get back to my sleep but then I shot my eyes open.‘AJ!’ I scrambled out of my bed, still slightly disoriented, a smile formed on my lips as I remembered sleeping in his embrace yesterday and also the promise he made to me. I crept over to the window and peered out, hoping to catch a glimpse of my mysterious neighbor. But the window was closed and the curtains were drawn, I felt a pang of disappointment and sadness. Many thoughts filled my head as I sluggishly entered the bathroom.My mood was sour, and ‘The What Ifs’ in my head kept ringing consistently.What if he didn't keep his promise?What if AJ was taunting me?What if he had packed away?What if he is going to go back to the way he was?I kept stabbing my food without any remorse, I kept sighing, slumping my shoulders, forgetting the fact that I was having breakfast with my family.“Tiffany
~Tiffany~As I climbed the stairs to the top floor, my hands trembled as I wondered whether AJ would show up or not. During biology class, I sent him a message on paper telling him to come after the class. My heart was pounding as I reached the top floor, taking a deep breath I opened the door, with my hopes high.A smile tugged at the corner of my mouth as I saw him right in front of me. He had his normal straight face on, his aura was chilling but cool and his jet-black hair made him look so daring the way he fixed his honey eyes on me made my heart flutter. His hands were inside his pocket as he stood still.“You can stare all you want later, but not now,” His voice disrupted my thoughts, my face flushed, I coughed lightly trying to comport myself, also trying to look away from him before I started thinking dirty about him.“I have something to say… more like I want to ask you a question,” He said after a long pause. I batted my eyes, still fighting the crazy urge to think dirty a
~AJ~“Stop bothering her,” Denali implored, more like threatening me, a snort erupted from my lips as I looked at her in disdain.“I thought you don't speak our language, what happened?” I sneered at the siragon in a mocking tone.“Heed to my words Vamp, Don't bother her,”“I don't see myself bothering her and you don't get to tell me what to do” I replied with a touch of sarcasm while arching my brows to the side.“Tiffany doesn't know anything about helping me escape from your lair that night,” Denali conveyed. “What do you mean? Wasn't she there with you?” I queried, trying to suppress my curiosity.“I summoned her, the thing is quite complicated-”“Make it non-complicated and explain thoroughly,” I interrupted her harshly, I gnashed my teeth as I howled indicating that I had low patience and she should say whatever it was she wished to say fast.“Quit that act Vamp, I'm not scared of you,” She tells me.“Oh! Really,” my claws were already out, ready to pin this lowly siragon and
~Tiffany~“I didn't expect you would be home this soon, what's wrong Tiffany? Did anyone hurt you in school? Did you encounter any creature- Oh! My, did you pull off the necklace?” Dad gasped, he had this worried look on his face as he checked my body for any injury.Tears strolled down my cheeks, it was so much that it clouded my eyes.That's what I hate, making my dad worry about me, I hate that I am not able to help him and now AJ makes me feel so little of myself.What's the use of being my comfort for a day and the next you ruin it? I hate you AJ!And I mean it.He is so mean!!I kept crying, venting everything in my heart through the tears that poured.“Tell me Tiffany, what's wrong?” hearing his voice again, I sniffled.“I-i just h-hate being weak, I-I don't want to be pitied,” my voice was croaked, I sounded terribly pitiable and I despised it.“You are not weak Tiffany, you are very strong, and I don't pity you, I'm afraid of how powerful you would be, I'm scared of how stro
~Tiffany~“Alden-” I heard the voice of my doppelganger say, walking in the direction where the voice came from. Lo and behold, sexy AJ was without a shirt, the only clothing on him was wool shorts. His abs were well-defined, his skin smooth and tanned that I myself could not help but drool, damn AJ is Hot!I shifted my gaze to my doppelganger, who gulped nothing.She was stunned to see AJ like this and the air between them was charged with an undeniable electricity.“Looks like you are amazed by what you see mate,” AJ teased, damn his Masculine voice.“Have you no fear Vamp boy, what if they see you,” She said, glancing at the door, her voice had this worried tone in it or was I dreaming?“I do not care about them, just you,” He tells her with so much affection.“Don't be stupid Alden,” My doppelganger sneered.“You care about me and that's why you stayed far away from me. You act like you hate me but you and I know that you feel the opposite. I know how you try to fill up your desi
~Tiffany~“Nooo!!!” I woke up, my breathing fogging up unsteadily.I looked at my surroundings, I was already in my room.I am not dead!Should I feel relieved or not, my doppelganger's behavior is already getting out of hands.She went berserk. I need to stop her but how?Who was I going to tell?Who was going to believe me?I tried going back to sleep so I could go back there and help her calm down, but I couldn't. I sluggishly took my necklace that was underneath my pillow and placed it back where it was meant to be.I scrambled off the bed, rambled to the window and opened the curtains. I just needed to watch AJ for a while before hatching a plan on how to leech on him forever.I wouldn't want him committing the same mistakes again.“You're still awake!” Those words flew out of my mouth as I saw AJ standing on his balcony, his clothes a little bit rough and torn.There were scratches on his body like he had fought with someone.“Wait! Did you fight with someone?” I questioned wit
~AJ~I just came back from the woods, hoping to see my mate sleeping soundly, to my dismay Tiffany had already closed the curtains, blocking me from seeing her beautiful face. The only thing I could hear was her heartbeat which indicated that she was already asleep.I exhaled deeply, having it in mind that I should get used to this, as I turned to enter the bathroom an ominous shadow stopped me. My ears perked up as I could hear the gnashing of teeth and growls with blows passing each other.Something was going on down there and using my acute hearing ability, I was able to trace the sound and sped tracked to the area. “Bloody Wendigo!” I spat out as I helped Denali stop them from hurting her.Swoosh! I cut down one of the Wendigo hands with my claws, and then I sucked the remaining energy into my body leaving him lifeless, perks of being a psychic vampire.I can live without blood for decades as long as there is enough energy to suck.One of the Wendigos tried to sneak an attack on
