Chapter 12

After dinner, Mark extended his arm in a gentlemanly gesture. The simple touch of his forearm under her fingers sent a shiver through her, which she tried to ignore as they walked toward the limousine.

At a table near the restaurant exit, two women were watching them. One leaned toward the other, not bothering to lower her voice:

"What young women do for money," she said, with obvious disdain. "Disgusting."

Elena heard her. Her face heated with shame and indignation. She almost let g

  • CEO Vampire & His Secretary   Chapter 55

    Chapter 55Adrian closed the door, locking it with a heavy iron latch."Let’s go to the office. It’s the most protected room in the house. It has a view of the entire property."As they entered the office, Vlad snapped his fingers and the fireplace ignited. The flames came to life, casting long, restless shadows across the walls.Elena stopped in the middle of the room, frowning. Something was… wrong.The flames moved strangely. It wasn’t just ordinary fire. They twisted as if they had a will of their own. She narrowed her eyes."Vlad… the fire is… strange."Before he could respond, the flames surged violently, swirling into a vortex of living fire. From the center of the fireplace, a human silhouette formed. It looked like a man—tall, thin, with a mischievous grin. He stepped out of the fire, engulfed in flames. Suddenly, he began slapping his own arms and chest dramatically."Ouch, ouch, ouch! I’m on fire! Help! Someone put this out!" he shouted, spinning in place with exaggerated p

    Chapter 54Vlad stood before the tall window, motionless like a statue. His dark eyes watched the shadowed garden.Elena entered the office."You’re different," she said, crossing her arms tightly. "Since Isolde left. You barely speak. You barely look at me."Vlad didn’t turn."Because now I know exactly what’s coming."She stopped beside him."And what do you intend to do?"He looked at her without blinking."Get you out of here. Today. Now."She frowned."What?""The mansion is no longer safe. He has already sensed you. Every wall, every stone, every drop of blood you spilled here is marked with your scent. Dracula is coming. And when he arrives, he won’t come alone."Elena felt her stomach tighten."So we run?"A bitter half-smile curved his lips."I don’t run, Elena. I never have. I will lure him somewhere else.""Where? The farm?"He nodded."Open ground. No civilians. Space to fight without destroying everything around us. And... it’s where it all began for me. The place where I

    Chapter 53The next morning, Elena slowly opened her eyes. For a moment, she simply watched Vlad beside her, completely still, like a statue of dark beauty.She got out of bed and walked barefoot out of the room.She went downstairs, almost floating. The mansion was empty. Vlad had dismissed the staff that morning, giving her the space she needed to adapt.She entered the kitchen and went straight to the sink. She picked up a glass and filled it with water, a human habit that still grounded her. She brought the glass to her lips… and without realizing, she squeezed a little too hard, shattering it in her hand. She froze.She looked at her fingers, then at her palm. No cuts, nothing."Damn…" she murmured.Carefully, she gathered the shards and threw them away. She took a deep breath out of reflex and closed her eyes for a second.Then she smelled him. It came from the study.He was sitting there, reading an old book. He looked up as soon as she entered."Good morning.""I… broke a glas

    Chapter 52Elena walked slowly, barefoot, feeling the cold floor beneath her feet. A sound bothered her, it seemed like… heartbeats.She stopped in the middle of the hallway, closing her eyes tightly."Stop…" she murmured, placing her hands on her head. "Stop… what is that smell?"The scent was so intense that she felt her fangs descend. When she opened her eyes again, they were red, and she knew exactly where the sound was coming from. The kitchen—someone was there… and alone.She started walking again and suddenly found herself at the kitchen door.One of the employees stood with his back turned, cutting something on the counter. He hummed softly while preparing something.Elena held the doorknob when she heard:"Elena."Her body went rigid—it was Vlad’s voice.Vlad was leaning against the wall beside the door, watching."Go back," he said calmly. "Now."She trembled."I… I can’t…"The employee turned his head slightly, confused."Is someone there?"Elena took another step.Vlad app

    Chapter 51Elena’s body went completely still in Vlad’s arms. Her heart, which had been beating weakly and irregularly, stopped altogether.Vlad squeezed his eyes shut, and tears of blood ran down his face. Valkyria and Adrian approached slowly.Then it happened—they heard the first heartbeat. She suddenly inhaled. Her skin, pale from blood loss, lost the last trace of human color.She felt her fangs break through her gums. She opened her eyes—they were light red, like rubies.Elena blinked slowly, confused. Suddenly, she heard very loud sounds: the wind, the crackling of the fireplace, the beating hearts of Valkyria and Adrian—they sounded like drums. Everything was too loud. Too much."Vlad..."He held her face with both hands, gently brushing his thumbs over her cheekbones."I’m here. I’m here, my love."Elena tried to sit up, but her body still wouldn’t obey."It hurts..." she murmured, placing her hands on her head. "Everything hurts... and I... I feel hungry."Her fangs lengthen

  • CEO Vampire & His Secretary   Chapter 50

    Chapter 50Vlad walked through the forest like a shadow among shadows. The spell ran through his veins, making everything sharper.The trail narrowed, giving way to a natural stone passage covered in moss and filled with flowers.Hundreds of them. The scent was sweet, sickening, laced with something chemical that would make any human drop to their knees within seconds—hallucinating, paralyzed, or falling into a deep sleep. A classic pack trap for hunters or human intruders.Vlad stopped at the entrance of the passage. He tilted his head and inhaled deeply.The smell was strong enough to irritate even his vampiric senses. He laughed softly.He crossed the passage. The sky was beginning to brighten. Ahead, among the more spaced trees, stood an old structure.Gray stone covered with black ivy. It was not recent. It was old. Perhaps as old as he was.Vlad slowed his pace.On the path leading to the house, figures began to emerge from the shadows of the trees.Men.At least a dozen.Partia

    Chapter 34After the eleven o'clock meeting, Vlad glanced at the watch on his wrist: half past twelve.He closed the folder and looked at Elena."Shall we have lunch?"She looked up from the tablet, smiling."I accept. I'm starving."He stood up first and offered his arm. She accepted with a smile.

He needed distance to understand what was happening to himself. Above all, he needed to pu
