Chapter 8 - Mate Bond
“None of you are allowed to be out of this castle without an escort.” Ryan exclaimed to my siblings and I. “We need to protect you from the Xaiden Clan. They aren’t like the vampires you’ve encountered on our way here. They are stronger, faster and are involved in mutations that are extremely… revolting.”
Xaiden Clan? Where have I heard this name before? “What do you mean Xaiden Clan? How do I know that name?” Dad told us stories about the great underworld but I thought it was just bedtime stories to scare us.
“Xaiden has been claimed to be the first vampire bloodline which are the original vampires since the beginning of time.” Ryan explained, “They live for thousands of years if they are not killed. Their strength and speed are immeasurable. The newborns were the ones you encountered on our way here. They are weaker and a

Mia granted my request to have Aaliyah and I separated, however what I didn't know was that Caden would be accompanying me as Mia assisted Aaliyah. We both sat in the waiting room or as Mia called it the parlour. ”Caden?” I said turning to face him. ”hmm” he was going through some kind of documents in his hands. ”Can I be absolutely honest with you?” He stopped what he was doing and looked directly into my eyes. ”Sure. I expect nothing less.” I fidgeted for a bit but it needed to be said. ”I… You scare me.” I blurted out and hung my head, not looking at him to get away from his alluring eyes. He was silent for what seemed like an eternity before he responded, ”what exactly scares you?” As he asked this I felt the seat next to me dip as I realized that he was now
Brimming With Power Chapter 10- Who Am I?
That night I couldn't sleep again so I went down to the beach with a sheet, a basket of apples and a bottle filled with water. I laid myself and the basket on the now opened sheet on the sand. Listening to the wind and the waves crashing on the sand. Looking at the stars in the sky I tried to free my mind from everything I've been through for the past few days.How do I deal with a situation like this? I know running from it wouldn’t really help me but where do I start? How do I even begin? “Mom, dad, I need you. What advice would you give me?” I laughed a little as I remembered dad’s favorite words, “If life gives you lemons sweety, just make yourself some lemonade.” and mom would always tell me that no matter where I end up in life its my choice to be who I want to be, and if I fall no matter what, get back up, remember who you are and try again.

The meeting I asked Ryan to organise would start at 2:30pm as it gave everyone time to assemble. I invited Becca to accompany me to the meeting. I was a bit nervous but having her there made me a little comfortable as she was the only one I really knew. The three gentlemen whom I rudely interrupted the other day were there as well as Ryan and Caden. As Ryan was about to introduce everyone, I politely stopped him, “Good day gentlemen. Thank you for making time in your busy schedule to come today. Please have a seat.” no one sat except for Becca. I looked at Ryan and Caden who were also standing. Becca chuckled a little, “You know... they won't unless you do.” she said looking at me with amusement clearly showing on her face. Ryan gestured for me to sit in his seat behind his desk however I shook my head and sat next to Becca turni

That night after the meeting was another night of no sleep. Instead of roaming the castle or going to the beach I sat out by the balcony of my room overlooking a mass majority of clean cut lawn. There was a rounded glass top table with two identical wooden chairs on either side of the table. My mind roamed to my parents which caused my heart to ache. Silent tears fell as I remembered their faces and our happy and sad times together. I miss spending time with my siblings however it can’t be helped at this time. It’s hard dealing with our parents' death but for Aaliyah’s sake I can’t be around her. As my mind tried to reason with the pros and cons in my current situation. There was a sudden knock at the door. Thinking it might be Bruce coming to check on me, I wipe
Brimming With Power Chapter 13 - Accepting The Power Within
The next day I had an appointment with Becca and Seghal. “Lia you're getting sloppy. Concentrate.” Becca and I were sparring with each other. Something we haven’t done for almost over two months due to exams, graduation and moving here. The first time I saw Becca’s strength was when she took down the class bully in just one swift move. I was in aww. She was strong, fast and heck she stood up to the fat guy who was three or four times her size and about ten times her weight. One steady uppercut under his jaw and he was down for the count. I practically begged her to teach me how to fight and she had. However, today, today I realized that she was holding back. I felt sore all over, and the worst part was, she was still holding back. Over the years she had gotten stronger and faster. “If you can’t hit me, block my attack and t

“I give up. I have absolutely nothing to wear. I can’t go with any of these.” I showed her the hopeless clothing I brought along with me from home. “What do I do Be?” I sank to the bed discarding the top I had in my hand to the rest of the pile on the bed next to us. The seamstress hadn’t finished making my clothes yet so what I came with is what I had to choose from which wasn't very much. There was a knock at the door when I dropped myself next to the pile laying on the bed in frustration. Becca went to see who it was looking at me with amusement which caused me to throw a pillow at her which she caught while sticking out her tongue at me. “Does someone need a little hand?” Mia asked, holding up a green tank top in her hands. My eyes opened wide as I sprang up to sit

After leaving Jouysena’s, Caden took me to a remote place away from the village. He took me to his home near a lake. “Does jouysena live with you?”“No, but you're welcome to.” He said as he chopped up vegetables, teasing me.Caden decided to cook us dinner for our first date. I sat at the counter watching him at work as I kept him company. It’s not that I could not cook but Caden decided that he wanted to do something special for me before he left for his mission tomorrow.“You’re parents…what happened to them?” It was hard to ask but I did want to know. “Vampires. They attacked our village. My father was coming back from a search party when their group was ambushed. Mother was with me and my brother a
Brimming With Power Chapter 16 - Coaxing Aaliyah
That night after Caden dropped me back to the castle I opened his black box. Inside was a single silver key. I held the key to examine it. To my knowledge it looked like a house key. Smiling, I placed it back in the box and kept it on the nightstand.I then opened the little bag that Miss Jouysena gave me. Inside was a little jade ornament that was the shape of a seahorse. It was just like the one I saw in her shop. I place the ornament in the palm of my hand admiring the beauty of it. Before I knew it the jade was glowing like the colours of the rainbow. Its shape had changed into a dragon. It slithered to my wrist, encircling it wrapping itself around my hand until it settled into a resting position. It was no longer jade but a type of silver metal or something that was now a bracelet.To be honest I was shocked, a bit scared
