When he heard the testimony, his entire body began to tremble.Ethan’s already pale face went ashen, his lips pressed tight and dry.He tried to call Lucien, but his hands were shaking so badly that he dialed the wrong number several times.When the call finally connected, he told Lucien to bring Vicky to the police station immediately.Lucien had no idea what had just happened. Confusion filled his voice.“Why the police station? Vicky said she wants to travel abroad. I’m on the way to the airport with her right now. Whatever it is can wait until she get back.”Claire and I sat across from Ethan, watching despair wash over his face as he closed his eyes.“Don’t ask questions,” Ethan said hoarsely.“Is Vicky next to you right now? Then don’t talk to her. Bring her here. Now. Immediately.”Forty minutes later, Lucien walked into the police station, still completely unaware of the situation, dragging a violently struggling Vicky behind him.The moment she stepped inside, one of Lucien’s

But Vicky had been their dream girl for years.On a subconscious level, they simply refused to let go.They could not bring themselves to admit how foolish it was to overlook her as a suspect.Still, their movements and expressions were growing increasingly impatient.Claire and I exchanged a glance and let out a cold, knowing laugh.The vampire spell on the front door had suddenly sealed it shut.The passing driver had refused to help and had clearly been affected by vampire illusion magic.Silver beads were scattered all over the floor.The criminal had known exactly that both Claire and I were carrying vampire babies.If it wasn’t someone close to those two men, then who else could it be?None of this could be a coincidence.The answer was already painfully obvious.My fists clenched tightly, pain biting into my palms.The sunlight grew sharper, and a burning heat crept across my back.Claire noticed my reaction at once.She quickly reached out and gently patted my back, urging me t

Ethan had never seen me explode like that before.He froze on the spot, stunned and unable to react.In his mind, I had always been gentle and quiet.Someone easygoing, especially when Lucien was around.Neither Ethan nor Lucien had ever known the real me.Before this, I had been blinded by love, always trying to please Lucien, shrinking myself to fit what he wanted.Looking back now, I realized I had slowly been molded into a substitute for Vicky without even noticing.It took three wasted years and the loss of my child for me to finally wake up.They had never compromised in love.They trampled over truth and our dignity, taking everything while giving nothing back.Of course, they assumed we would keep giving in.So they thought none of this was worth a divorce.After I finished yelling, I hung up the phone.Claire had come out of the bedroom and was leaning against the doorframe.“This is who you really are, Caroline,” she said.When the sun finally rose and its warmth spread acros

Lucien slipped back into his usual habit of blaming me.That was all it took for Vicky to steady herself again, even letting a faint, smug smile surface.My chest rose and fell violently with anger.This vampire had lived for centuries, yet learned nothing.Even now, he lacked the courage to admit his own mistakes.This was the man I had loved for three years.Vampire loyalty to marriage was nothing but a joke.Claire spoke before I could.“Don’t push it too far?” she lashed out.“You’re the one who refused to save us because of your ignorance. You don’t get to decide what ‘too far’ means anymore.”She turned to Ethan.“Didn’t you say divorce meant divorce? What, you are crawling back to me now? You coward.”Her words hit their mark. Both men were visibly enraged.Once the documents were signed, Claire and I finally felt relieved.We didn’t care how they felt anymore. We left with our lawyer without looking back.We stood outside and breathed in deeply, staring at the sky.Then we deci

Her shoulders began to tremble visibly.When Lucien pushed her hand away, her fangs slipped out before she even realized it.I didn’t want to waste any more time.I told them to sign the divorce papers.Lucien suddenly grabbed my wrist.He couldn’t get a full sentence out. His voice broke, uneven and rushed.Ethan finally understood what his brother was trying to say and stepped in.“I need to look into the arson case. I’ve got work to do,” he said.“The person who report the case is in a hurry. We’ll set another time to talk.”He glanced at Claire behind me, clearly trying to soften his tone, but authority came too naturally to him.The brothers exchanged a look.In the end, they chose not to suspect Vicky.She had merely assumed that the person passing the cabin was a woman, and they told themselves they couldn’t accuse her without solid proof.To them, the fire was still just an accident.No matter how many doubts were laid out in front of them,they would always choose to trust Vick

The two vampires stood frozen, their composure completely shattered.“I told you already. The baby is gone. Sign the divorce papers. I don’t want to see you again.”Lucien took the papers in a daze.It took him nearly two full minutes to react.He could no longer feel any connection to our dampir.Rage exploded across his face.“Caroline! Didn’t I tell you I would turn you?”“It was just pregnancy discomfort. Why couldn’t you endure it?”“Why would you deliberately kill my baby?”“All this because of your shallow jealousy?”“Do you have any idea how much I was looking forward to this baby?”Even now, he refused to face reality.Vicky hid in his arms, crying as she tried to soothe him.I felt sick.“I was trapped in a fire and lost my baby,” I said coldly.“And you’re saying I did it on purpose?”“Would you have been satisfied only if I died in that fire too?”“Jealousy?”“Would I risk my life over jealousy?”He knew exactly how bad my condition had been.Some days, I could barely walk.
