Erna sat by her window, looking up at the night sky of Waterford from her bedroom window. She knew that there was nothing there but a few stars and a full moon covered in quite dense smoke of pollution. Yet her eyes remained locked there as if bewitched by the light of the full moon, which was strangely beautiful in comparison.
Her hand moved to touch the figure of the moon that looked much closer to her while biting her lower lips. The moonlight made her think of Bianca. Her best friend's skin was just like the moon. Pale, white with a slightly lower body temperature than the average person. Her friend's tapering fingers, plus a taller and slender body than average women and her handsome face were indeed suitable to make her the perfect prince figure. In fact, she might not be surprised if one day she finds Bianca claiming to change her gender to man, considering that there was not the slightest trace of femininity in Bianca's masculine personality.
In one final shot using all his remaining strength after defeating twenty vampire prisoners who sided with Schneider, Theodore managed to knock the body of his opponent, a man with the pliable build of the Schneider werewolf clan, crashing into the wall behind his opponent. His hands moved his vampire aura, choking the man's neck to death.Having done this, Theodore caught his breath, raging with exhaustion, to his feet with difficulty. His legs were shaking violently because his stamina had been drained from relying too much on his vampire aura. His right arm was bleeding profusely from the man's attack, while his vision began to blur. Erick, who had just finished tidying up the remaining Schneider members, rushed to catch Theodore's nearly collapsed body and hit the floor which was filled with debris."Are you alright?"
Veronica was confused to find a change in Karl's attitude after returning from the business that night. Over a few days, her boyfriend turned into the overprotective type. Always asking where she was going and volunteering to take her, whether to campus or just sightseeing. Always frowning while peeking out the window occasionally when she was not going anywhere as if waiting for someone's presence. Or something. She did not know. Karl did not want to explain anything at all every time she asked. Just reply with the classic answer that asked her not to worry about it.How could she not worry, when Karl always wore a worried face?She wanted to ask Karl to tell her what happened that night, but she did not dare to do it. What if Karl finally decided to tell her, and she was not ready to know it? Or maybe she would not understand anyt
Veronica came out from one of the toilet cubicles after vomiting all of her guts. Holding her stomach, she walked slowly to the sink to wash her hands and gargle. If she could compare it to what it felt like to ride a motorcycle with Bianca, she would think of it like riding a roller coaster. It was that awful. Bianca used full speed, making her have to hug Bianca while trembling with fear of falling off from her friend's motorbike. Smoothly, the woman passed through the vehicles on the highway. The good thing was they arrive at the cafe where they usually hang out in just ten minutes. Usually, she would take a city bus and then continue the rest of the way on foot after stopping at two stops. The fare would be much cheaper if she took that option, although she would have to spend thirty minutes in exchange for it—especially if she left from her apartment."Want to drink some water?"Bianca continued to wait for her while leaning against the sink, ignoring the sh
Stephen closed his blue eyes, which lost their sparkle of charm, sat leaning against the door of his room. His mind was filled with curses, reproaches, and insults aimed at his failed mission a few days ago. That near failure sent Petra to death. Carelessness that he did not deserve forgiveness from his pack. As an alpha from the Laurent family, he should be able to guarantee the safety of his pack and successfully complete the mission. It was his second failure in his life, adding with when he failed to bring his brother back to his mother and ended with the result of his mother's death a few months later without seeing Sean forever.He chewed his thin lips, narrowing his lips even more until they seemed to disappear. He left the food delivered by Fabiola a few hours ago—which must have been cold—in front of his room because she found him kept locked up in his room.He moved from his place to his desk, looking for a cigarette that could dispel his frantic though
Theodore's head throbbed with pain at the many protests he had heard since fifteen minutes ago he entered the meeting room. Fussing over the same thing as usual, as if not getting bored with the topic to ask him to resign from his position. The leaders of the small groups that joined the Pedrosa family again filed a lawsuit to bring him down. As usual, they fussed over his status as an illegitimate child and was also a sneaky way for his beloved father to dishonourably remove him from the Pedrosa family without getting his hands dirty.And the commotion to this morning's meeting was caused by the evidence he had just found with Erick and Isabella—one of his informants —after they had spent several of their days trying to find out the cause behind the destruction of the Pedrosa prison building. The initial suspicion that there was interference from insiders at Pedrosa's main headquarters in favour of Schneider has now been clearly proven.The problem was, they als
Bianca grumbled in annoyance, beating her helmet repeatedly while continuing to endure her annoyance while looking at the couple who was standing not far from her—Erna and the man she did not want to know or even remember his name. In her eyes, their intimacy was so annoying. Her heart was filled with great annoyance and disappointment so that all along, she had been insulting Erna. She did not have the strength to linger in that place, facing the two people she least wanted to see for now. If it were not for Karl forcing her to stay there, she might have spent her time on the beach at the far end of Waterford city to cool off her minds.Not wanting to look ridiculous in front of Erna, who no longer cares about her existence, she stopped hitting her helmet, put on her helmet and started the motorbike engine. She looked up for a moment, looking at the Waterford city sky that was very bright. There was no cloud to cover the sky. But strangely, she had a frantic feeling that
Her body froze instantly. A bad scenario flashed across her mind. She walked over to her father's subordinates, pushing them back but failed due to the difference in their strength levels.Her ears could more and more hear Theodore's voice. This time it was not his brother's scream of pain, but the voice of Theodore speaking in a flat tone she had never heard before.Together with Erick and Isabella, who were relieved to see her, she once again tried to break into the door."You three, step aside," said Karl, who had just arrived there.Karl's arrogant tone managed to stop them all. The strong aroma of plant roots spread throughout the room. The man's eyes turned green. Without waiting twice, the three of them retreated. Then the man pushed Veronica towards Isabella, telling the woman to evacuate his girlfriend to a safe place. It was clear that the man did not want his girlfriend to see what he was going to do next.Now the three of
Veronica was confused when Karl asks a round-faced young woman with maroon-rimmed glasses whose hair tied into a ponytail, wearing formal attire away from the unknown room. Her eyes caught the figure of an Asian-faced man named Erick who looked panicked and frightened, continuing to fight against several large men who were standing around the door of the room. Her boyfriend's face was as tense as Erick's, and Bianca, who had arrived there while trying to break through the door, also shouted for her brother's name. Fear ran through her body as she could hear the sound of angry screams that overflowed from an old man from inside the room before the woman who was asked by Karl to take her away from the place pushed her away from the place.With all her strength, she tried to get away from the woman but failed. In terms of strength, she who hardly ever exercises other than walking was clearly outdone their different. Once she was really far, then the woman let go, staring anxi
