Lorcan Judson

“Keep a watch out for that little girl of yours.”

That bonehead whispers in my ear. His voice was wrapped in the most dirty intention that no creature deserves.

It hits my nerves instantly!

An intense fury to smash his face on the floor until it turns into a pulp swirls in me. I grit my teeth, making a failed attempt to dissolve my rage.

The next moment, my hand rises to hit his jaw, aiming to break it and land him in hospital for at least a week but a small, clumsy, warm hand holds my fist, distracting me from my target.

I look at her, frowning.

Suddenly, her eyes widen as if she has seen a ghost.

“Lorcan, you are bleeding!” She shrieks.

My frown deepens. I touch the right corner of my lips only to find a sticky, crimson liquid on my fingers and a dull pain.

Fuck! Now I have to spend my precious energy uselessly on healing this wound.

I exhale and look up. That bonehead is nowhere to be found. Lucky bastard. If he stayed one more second loitering around me, I wou

  • Burning In His Crimson Love   Chapter 20: Inspecting the suspicious spot

    Lorcan Judson“What's up with the patch, brother?” Orlo inquires, swinging his hands as he walks beside me. “You know.” I side-glance at him, not giving him the attention he needs to poke me with his teasing. “I know.” He nods. “But I don't know why you need this.”“That stupid human did this,” I reply something which is so unlike me and is obvious as daylight. “And you're not gonna remove it?” Orlo waggles his eyebrows. “No.”“Since when do vampires need bandages to heal their wounds?” He stretches his hands like a cat and cracks his knuckles as his voice turns to the well-known teasing tone.“You little brat, do you want me to heal myself and then blow off my cover that I am a vampire?” I look at him, trying to maintain a poker face as Verena's caring face keeps pricking my mind whenever I think of my bandage. “That is the only reason for keeping that bandage on, right?” Orlo grins mischievously. “What other reason could there be?” I question back. “Who knows?” Orlo shrugs, s

  • Burning In His Crimson Love   Chapter 19: Suspicious Spot

    Lorcan Judson“With this, the mysterious uni adventure came to an end.” Amara declared, feigning a sad look. “Too bad it ended too soon.” Orlo plays along, on the verge of clinging to Amara like they have been besties for eras. “What’s next?” Verena asks, the sparkle in her eyes seeming to go down a bit. I narrow my eyes. Did something happen? That cheerful, over-vampire-enthusiastic girl seems a bit down. If I am not wrong, her mood has swung that way since our visit to the abandoned building. Hah…A deep breath finds its way out of my system. One more reason to sift through the area. “You okay?” I whisper, moving to her side.“Yeah. I am.” Verena offers a fake smile. “You clearly aren’t.” I cross, gently holding her arm to slow her down. “You have been like this since exiting from the abandoned building.”“You are reading too much into things.” Verena shoots me an annoyed look and shrugs her arm.This means I am proceeding in the right direction. “In a right way, no?” I grip h

  • Burning In His Crimson Love   Chapter 18: Mysterious University Adventure

    Lorcan Judson“Oh brother, you guys are taking forever to come out.” Orlo bursts in followed by Dylan and the two humans whom Verena refers to as friends. “Is something interesting going on?” This blockhead. I wanna smack his head hard enough to erase that mischievous grin on his face. Dylan hits him with the shoulder, earning a glare from my idiot of a brother but the older, as usual, keeps his poker face. “You are injured?” Julia's voice reverberates, slow and calculated. Her eyes are glued to Verena's finger. She did manage to notice such minute details about her friend. Out of these three humans, Julia intrigues me. Not like a prey. Not like an interest. But something like a fellow predator. She gives off the warning vibe of a predator whose territory is entered by another hunter. My vampire instincts alarm me not to mess with her, more specifically her ‘friends’.And I do have zero interest in poking my nose into others' business. I am not free enough to entertain humans.

  • Burning In His Crimson Love   Chapter 17: I am not different than a man!

    Verena LaytonI squirm. I open my eyes. An unfamiliar ceiling welcomes me. It's not my room. Is it a hospital? I do not remember…Shit! I was in the infirmary with Lorcan. I almost jolt to sit up, propping my body on my right elbow.“Easy, little human.” Lorcan sings. “We don't want you to faint again due to orthostatic hypotension, do we?”I blink and look up, overhead.Lorcan is sitting near my head. If I had moved my head two inches up, I would have been using his thigh as my pillow. I freeze. How did I end up in this situation? The current setup indicates what I am thinking: I fainted. But why? I cannot seem to remember. All I remember is that I injured my finger due to my carelessness, and Lorcan came running to my aid. After that, it's blank. Something major is missing. Did I faint after that?“Wanna touch it?” Lorcan's voice brings me back to reality.“Touch what?” My head shoots up. “My thigh.” He smirks. “You were staring, no, ogling at it.”My eyes widen. Darn it! Was I

    Verena Layton I draw the X-axis and Y-axis on another massive chart to re-do the lost chart. I absent-mindedly run the pencil vertically as I think of Lorcan’s words. He told me to draw the graph only aand warned me not to color them. I asked numerous times but that jerk won’t tell me. Like a defeated warrior, I continue with my work. Both of us stick our asses to the floor with determination to finish the work by the deadline. We sit with our backs facing each other. It was my suggestion which I am regretting very much now. I want to see what this cold creature is doing and again, if I give in to the temptation, it will hurt my pride given how willfully I suggested our sitting position. Curiosity gets the best of me and I peek. And guess what I saw?His damn broad rectangular shoulders! They are concealing the view. I let out an angry grunt. “What are you trying to peak at, Ms. Layton?” Lorcan’s low voice echoes and catches me off guard. “I am just looking out so you won’t sla
