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.

    Verena Layton“What on earth came over me?!” I poke my pillow with my index finger aggressively. “Why the fuck did I…Gosh! I fucking kissed Lorcan?!” I bury my face into the pillow. How can I face him now? I not only kissed him but also lost myself so deeply in the kiss that I wanted to continue the kiss. Pow! I hit the pillow again. But…the kiss felt good. My fingers touch my lips. My mind drifts to the feverish moment. His large hands on my waist, his cold lips moving in sync with mine; I wish I could kiss him again- I freeze. What? Fuck no! Where are my thoughts going?! I need to calm down. Yes! Jumping jacks. It will help me blow off some steam. 1…2…3…100.I gasp like a fish out of water. Hundred jumping jacks, and my lungs are already on the verge of giving up. I almost collapsed on my bed, drinking water like a thirsty man in a desert. Blow sweat off my body? Yes. Blow off the steam? Failed miserably. I flop on my bed, hands and legs sprawled like a starfish. Now, there

  • Burning In His Crimson Love   Chapter 26: First Kiss!?

    Verena LaytonIt has been ten days since we are putting our heart and soul into the project. In the initial days or I would like to say as ‘golden days’, all the five members of our group were present. But, after three days, our situation became very similar to those TV shows depicted in college group projects- only one or two ended up doing the entire project. Currently, Julia, Lorcan and I are attending ‘group project meetings’ like some ritual every day after our classes for two to three hours. If you are wondering if the three of us click well, you are absolutely wrong. I don't know what's wrong with Julia and Lorcan. Since the very beginning, they look like they will pounce on each other the moment I take my eyes off them. As if they have been arch enemies since all their previous births. Like a particular incident yesterday, Lorcan's pen ran out of ink. Unfortunately, I left my pen box at home and ended up using Julia's pen. Lorcan, instead of asking Julia for a pen, looked

    Lorcan Judson It has been thirty minutes since I have been lurking in this damned library, yet no book interests me. There's no single book that might shed light on the past of this university. Useless!I scoff and walk, eyeing the books as if my gaze might magically bring a book that contains the desired information. “Hey!”That ominous voice! I halt. That ominous voice whose owner kissed me senseless last night. I do not want to see her. I am not prepared to face her. That's the main reason I didn't attend classes today. And now. Here we are. I let out a small sigh and turn my head to the direction of the voice. “Lorcan.” She smiles brightly- too bright for my old vampire eyes. “Looking for books?”I nod subtly. It looks like erasing memory worked quite well on her. My eyes narrow on how cheerful she looks, quite the opposite of someone whose memory is messed with. “Follow me then.” She grins and walks ahead like I am supposed to follow her. I sigh and plough after her. She i

    Verena Layton “Verena, you seem so lost today.” Amara nudges my elbow, pulling me out of my daze. “Rena, you sure you're alright?” Julia grabs my elbow, stopping me. “You look pale. Did something happen yesterday?”“No.” I smile, shaking my head. “I am fine. You two are worrying too much.” I wave my hand casually, dismissing their worries.Both of them look at me like I am a rare specimen handed to a scientist. “You sure?” Both my besties say in union. “Yes, my loves.” I nod, forcing a big smile on my lips to assure them. In fact, I am ghosting them. Wrong right? But I can’t help! I have been really out of it since this morning. I woke up feeling heavy, like someone messed with my mind. Strange fragments of memories keep popping out in my mind at random times. For example, I was drinking tea when suddenly a fragment popped in my mind where…oh gosh, even remembering that makes me punch the wall out of embarrassment! So, a strange image of me kissing Lorcan wildly, as if my life de

    Verena LaytonI am standing in a sunflower field. A sunflower field? Never went there before!But right now, I am in a sunflower field! I look around. Wow! I am surrounded by the gorgeous yellow flowers smiling brightly under the warm sun. Look at that! Even the butterflies are yellow. The monarch butterflies are dancing in the air like they own it. How pretty! How serene!“Verena, my love…” A familiar voice calls me. I turn on my heels, my sundress twirling. “Lorcan?!”My eyes widen as I see him smile brightly. He is dazzling like a dewdrop in sunlight on a winter morning. That slightly ruffled jet black hair makes him appear ethereal. Gosh! He is more handsome than I ever remember. His skin isn’t pale like he usually has, and his cocky mood is no longer there. He walks to me like a fallen prince. He spreads his arms, inviting me for a hug. Before I can understand, my body moves on its own, and I find myself wrapping my hands around his torso. “My love.” He kisses the top of m

    Verena Layton“Yo gurl~” I coo, putting on my earbuds.. “Hehe…I knew you would be awake at this hour, Ms Layton.” Amara from the other side grins.It's almost 1 am, and here I am Facetiming with my bestie while applying nail polish on my super short nails. “Face mask now? Really?” Amara shakes her head as if I committed the greatest sin of the century.“Look who is talking.” I scoff, watching her remove her transparent facemask off her face. “That makes two of us.” She cackles, putting some moisturiser on her fingers. “Don’t let Julia catch us.” I wink at her, putting my finger on my lips. “No way.” She chuckles. “We are dead if she finds us chatting late at night.” Her voice drops to a whisper. “You better close your doors and windows and turn off the light.” I laugh, throwing my head back. “Julia doesn’t live near me, love.” “Right.” She sighs, applying moisturiser to her face. “I am in trouble then.” She acts as if she is checking around. “I mark myself as safe.”I giggle. “
