How does one say goodbye to the life they once had?

Persephone had wrote six scrolls before she left her hotel room in the middle of the night. She said her goodbyes and well wishes to her father, her brother, Caleb, Caramia, and Derrick. The last scroll she wrote was informing Reginald the end of their relationship amongst other things.

She didn't pack much, only what could fit in a tote bag. She figured it would be easier to travel. She had packed a couple silly tank tops, a couple pairs of undergarments, a skirt, silky lounge pants, silky pajamas set, her wallet, and toiletries. She tied a couple chiffon scarves around the handle of the tote bag.

Desiring to travel without causing much attention, she selected baggy black trousers and oversized comfy knit sweater. She carefully placed a beret cap on her head. She loosely braided her hair to the side. All items she wore weren't from lavish brands instead opting for modest clothes.

    "Are you truly going to leave without speaking with her?" Caleb asked, causing Derrick's mind to wander to her amethyst eyes for the thousandth time.Derrick sighed. It was hopeless. He was hopeless, but he wasn't thoughtless or foolish. Sometimes, cruelty was kindness and setting her free unmarked was in her best interest. "It's for the best.""I once thought I was doing the right thing letting Persephone go."Caleb's smirk irritated him. It wasn't the same. Derrick's fate was doomed to failure, because his immortal life was resigned to destroying his old House. He wasn't egotistical to believe that they weren't going to destroy him. They almost had. He wouldn't allow Briar to be destroyed by him or by his old House. He refused to watch his mate suffer the fate he would."True," Derrick agreed, but he lifted up his shirt sleeve to reveal his wrapped injured hand. "But you also are still a functioning member of society who would've still floated above the scandal. There's no redemptio

    Father had called for a mediwitch. Lord Apollo seemingly knew who to contact and they were now waiting for this witch to show up. Orion had helped the others pull Derrick's body to the sofa. His eyes took in the darkening skin of his injured hand. It looked bad. Derrick looked real bad. The witch better get here quickly or there would be nobody left to cure.There was rapid knocking upon the door and the witch was let in. Her puffy dark hair bounced by, trailing after her as she rushed straight to Derrick. Orion didn't even see her silver eyes hiding behind huge glasses until she glanced around anxiously. There seemed to be unshed tears within her eyes are she worked upon Derrick. When she dipped a cloth into a bowl of silvery liquid, he watched as she took it out and placed it upon Derrick's ravaged hand.Derrick jumped slightly at the cloth before his eyes popped open. Orion's eyes widened as the vampire shouted, thrashing about on the sofa. The witch firmly pressed the cloth down u

    Trying to keep himself and his rage checked was proving quite difficult, because being in the same room as his sadistic brother and how Briar attempted not to flinch at his own touch was torture. What had Reginald done to put so much distrust and fear within his mate's eyes?Reginald never spoke of his gifts blessed by the dark gift. To be fair, Derrick hadn't either, but he strongly suspected what they entailed. Through his own gift, Derrick relived the memories of those traumatized by whatever tormented them. Observing his sired protégé's memories, Vivienne gave clarity to his brother's antics. Vivienne had told him countless times that she never intended to become Reginald's mistress, but every time she mustered enough courage, he instilled so much fear by his words.Derrick witnessed it first hand with how Reginald treated Persephone. She was a strongwilled girl who had in the past regarded Reginald as a mere insect that needed to be stomped upon. Somehow, he had got into her head

    "Ch-Change of p-plans?" she whispered.He nodded grimly before a genuine smile crossed his face. "Unfortunately but fortunately," he told her before chuckling to himself. "Unfortunately because I wanted to accompany you to brunch, but fortunately, because Persephone decided to leave my brother."Finally! Briar knew Persephone wouldn't return to that vampire. Reginald didn't deserve her. She hadn't even met her face to face, but she had seen the beautiful lady. She usually could see the type of soul someone was and Persephone oozed this mysterious icy demeanor. Briar knew all too well of double personas and she was certain Persephone Cristos played her part well.In fact, the entire Cristos House seemed to have a secondary persona, but it wasn't noticeable until someone observed them carefully. They were all good actors and actresses for the public eyes, but there was more to them that meets the eye.Orion seemed to more comfortable talking with Derrick, Cleo, and her the dinner, but h

    Briar awoke to the dimness. The city lights were brighter than they were when she had finally drifted to sleep. At some point, their spent bodies still tangled up limbs finally rested. Her entire body was incredibly sore, but she couldn't discover any regrets lingering within her heart and mind.It was almost like her restless soul finally felt safe enough to rest and slumber in the embrace of her other half. She felt like she discovered her home within him and she finally understood what he meant.She sighed, feeling the weight of his limbs around her. She bit her lip as she glanced about the room. The digital clock blinked 9:30AM. Groaning, she realized she was going to be late meeting up with her House for brunch.Derrick stirred next to her. "What's wrong?""I-I need to-to meet m-my family f-for brun-ch-ch," she admitted, turning her face so she could regard him. "I need to meet them at 10 AM."He opened his eyes, meeting hers for a moment. His teal eyes glanced to the digital clo
