My eyes opened very quickly.

"Lana?" I muttered while looking at her standing in front of Nick, her hands tightly clenched into fists. Greg was standing not far from her. "What did you do to Ella?" She sounded a little hysterical when she asked Nick, and Nick seemed too surprised to answer.

"I'll take her home." She walked past Nick who froze in place. Lana's blue eyes looked really angry ... and on me. But only a few steps, Nick turned around quickly and grabbed Lana's hand until she stopped. The next second Greg gripped Nick's arm "Get your hands off of her." Greg's voice makes the hairs on my back prickle.

"You can't take her back." Nick paid no heed to Greg's warning at all, his gaze focused on Lana.

Like a game of tug of war the three of them look ridiculous. Even though I could tell the atmosphere in the room was turning tense, I couldn't help but chuckle. My previously sad mood changed drastically when I saw those three people. I guess this is one effect of pregnancy.

    (POV - Nicholas Shaw)Two hundred years ago nothing in my life was more important than power. Two hundred years later the only thing that matters in my life is a woman. If I could go back in time and tell my younger self about Eleanor, maybe the past me would just snort and forget.But now ...I put my right hand into my trouser pocket, my fingers touching the soft surface of the velvet in the shape of a small square. It took me a long time to choose it until I had to be late for home. But it's all worth the ring in my pocket right now. It was the ruby that I finally chose for Eleanor. Even from the first time I saw her I knew this ring would be perfect for her.I didn't plan for this at all, getting married isn't the most important thing right now.No, as long as I haven't gotten rid of Alastair then Eleanor isn't completely mine.But lately Eleanor seems to be getting farther away from me, no matter how close she is to my side I can feel her thoughts are far away from me.

    Somehow we made it through dinner with Greg and Lana. After I told him about my pregnancy, Nick was silent for quite a while. He didn't even look at me after that. For a moment I was sure He would leave me. I know I took too long to tell him but still no matter how much I tried to prepare myself, Nick's response still hurt.I can't remember how long I stood staring at his back until he suddenly stood up and muttered we would be late for dinner if we didn't leave soon. Dinner with Greg and Lana was the last thing on my mind, but I couldn't say a word against it.Nick didn't ignore me but he barely looked at me during dinner. When Greg poured Wine for me Nick exchanged it with a glass of water without saying a word, Greg just frowned slightly when he saw Nick's attitude. They were both still cold to each other. The only one who saved me that night was Lana, she distracted me for a while with our chat.The journey home was a torment in itself for me, or maybe for both of us.Nick didn't

    Everything happened so fast.The sound of the bell woke me from sleep, I felt our bed move when Nick came down. I didn't know what time it was so I closed my eyes again, but the ensuing silence made me open them again and look at the digital clock beside my bed showing 2 p.m.The next second the sound of something breaking was heard from outside followed by Nick's voice shouting angrily. My heart seemed to jump in my chest cavity when the sound of glass being broken sounded again, in the middle of the darkness I got out of bed and put on my nightrobe."I will kill you if you touch her!" Nick's threat made me slow down my steps, with a beating heart my hand opened the bedroom door knob. Nick stood with his back to me with his body tense, He was only wearing his pajama trousers. But such a strong killing aura was emitting from his body that it made the fine hairs on my body bristle. He clenched his fists tightly and my breath caught when I saw broken glass and fresh blood flowing from h

    (POV - Nicholas Shaw)They took me to one of the properties owned by the Alastair clan, several Volders and Leeches were already waiting for us. They were all wearing black coats that almost covered their faces. This clan is one of the oldest clans that still exists today so all the rituals are still performed in the ancient way, probably thousands of years old. The oldest leader is Dostov, nobody knows his exact age but my guess is he is 800 ... or maybe 1000 years old. In his entire life he has never turned someone into his Leech, he keeps his blood pure to this day.Maybe Greg is one of the strongest Volders right now, but when compared to Dostov ... No one knows for sure how strong Dostov really is, because none of his enemies managed to survive after meeting Dostov. All died before they could tell.The next leader is the second oldest Volder in this clan, Alastair. If the dead had been a member of this clan ... who was much younger and lacked power, perhaps they wouldn't have gath

    "Nicholas ... "I opened my eyes again and looked at Dostov, everyone in the hall fell silent again waiting for what he would say next. "We accept your final request." He continued, this time his face looking friendlier, "It is an honor for me to fight the legendary Jack the Ripper."I looked into his clear blue eyes "But if I win, you have to let me go." I muttered under my breath. Murmurs filled the hall again followed by several angry sounding voices. Dostov raised a hand to stop the voices, "Of course, but you have to kill me first."The clan members moved to form a larger circle. "Nick." Greg whispered next to me, "Don't die." I turned to him and nodded slightly. Several people then brought Greg to kneel at the edge of the circle. Some of them whispered to each other enthusiastically, I don't think Dostov ever displayed his strength even in front of his own clan. Dostov stood up from his seat and untied my hands himself. He stretched out his hand to help me up. I stared at him fo

    (POV - Gregory Shaw)I knew the moment Dostov managed to bite Nick, he wouldn't have another chance. Instantly five people from the clan stood around me to prevent me from rebelling. I screamed Nick's name and cursed until the only sound in the hall was mine."Dostova." Suddenly a female voice echoed through this hall, distracting the attention of most of these bastard clan members. I didn't take my eyes off Nick and Dostov, waiting for an opening to catch my guards off guard. "Nicholas Shaw is innocent." The voice spoke again. I know the owner of this voice. I raised my head quickly towards the source of the voice, my gaze met a pair of clear blue-gray eyes.Alice stood at the edge of the circle, she was wearing a short black dress and matching heels, her platinum blonde hair was tied back. A katana sling adorns her shoulder, her right hand carrying a slightly dirty travel bag. Her eyes shifted from me back to Dostov and Nick on the floor, it seemed Dostov didn't notice Alice's prese

    (Eleanor's POV)"Should we catch up with them, Erik?" I asked while pacing around the fountain in front of Nicholas and Greg's house. Erik is standing not far from me. He hasn't changed his position at all for the last five hours. Even though Erik has asked me five times to wait inside, I can't just sit idly by and wait patiently as long as there is no news or certainty about Nick's fate."Alice asked me to make sure you weren't going anywhere until they returned, Miss Heather." Erik answered politely."But ... " I raised my hands to protest then dropped them again with a bit of resignation, "What if something happens-""Miss Heather, you know Mr. Shaw is the Volder who turned me into a Leech?"I replied with a small nod. A smile graced Erik's face before he continued, "If something happens to Mr. Shaw it will happen to me too.""You mean ... " I let my question hang in the air."If Mr. Shaw dies, I'm dead now too ... That's why Alice asked me to accompany you." he replied gently. Eri

    When I woke up Nick was still by my side. I looked at his relaxed sleeping expression with a smile, a few strands of his hair fell to cover part of his face. Nick's hair had started to grow without me noticing it. Previously he had never been late for a haircut every two weeks. His jaw was also starting to darken due to the growing beard.My finger traced his thick eyebrows which were usually wrinkled seriously, slowly Nick's eyelids opened looking at me then a sleepy smile graced his handsome face. "Did you sleep well?" Nick asked in a hoarse voice then closed his eyes again."Yes." I replied while continuing to trace the outline of his face with my fingertips. Even though his eyes were closed, the smile on Nick's face widened even more. "Amused?" I asked, smiling too. This time the tip of my index finger traced his smiling lips.Suddenly his eyes opened wide and his hands grabbed my wrists and held them above my head, still bare chested Nick pushed me until my back was against the b

    My body shivered with desire at the sound of Nick's sharp voice. He grabbed my hair and pulled me back onto the bed, facing him again.His blue eyes gleamed with lust, but I'm sure my own eyes looked just as desperate.One of his hands gripped my shirt. "I'm sorry if I ruin your clothes, Eleanor," he murmured, his voice strained. I wanted to laugh, my husband was still apologizing in a situation like this. The ticklish feeling disappeared quickly as he pulled off my shirt, scattering it around me.He undressed me until I was left in just my bra and panties. His satisfied gaze on my body only fueled the fire within me. The air in the room felt thin. No matter how hard my lungs worked, I couldn't breathe normally.He lowered his face and kissed me passionately, while one hand slipped around to my back to unhook my bra. In an instant, my bra was thrown to the corner of the room, and his warm, large hands cupped my breasts.The sensation of his touch sent waves of pleasure throughout my b

    I'm not sure how much time has passed. After our last conversation, Dostov said he would check on Lana and the others downstairs because he was afraid the blood cleansing process wasn't finished, so he asked me to wait in his apartment.Our previous conversation kept repeating in my head. But no matter how frustrated and worried I am now, in the end, Dostov's words are the ones that prevail in my mind. I can't change the future, even if I were to know it. All I can do is hope and pray that what Dostov saw won't happen in the future.Suddenly, the door to Dostov's apartment opens again. But it's Nick's face that appears behind it. I stand up to greet him, but both of us freeze upon realizing something. His previously warm gaze turns cold instantly. "Eleanor... Why do I smell Alastair's blood on you?" he asks as he takes a step closer to me.Damn, I forgot about Alastair's blood."Nick, I didn't realize the blood I drank was Alastair's," I explain, stepping back to distance myself from

    They stared at each other for a few minutes, silently."Whose blood is it?" I asked, hoping to hear his answer.He grimaced again. "Nicholas will be later. But right now, there's nothing more effective than Volder Ella's blood."I couldn't help but feel familiar with that scent, my body already recognizing it without Dostov confirming it. Nicholas will definitely be furious later. "Ugh, Dostov," I grumbled, closing my eyes in frustration."Don't worry, he won't be mad at you. Plus, by tonight, Alastair's scent on you will fade away... with Nicholas." He sighed and shifted his gaze to the bookshelf in the room.I glared at him and sighed. His intention was good, to free me from the torment of blood lust as soon as possible, but I was still annoyed because he didn't warn me earlier. "Are you better now? Do you want blood again?" I replied curtly."Not blood again, just another blood. Not Alastair's blood," he mumbled, still looking slightly guilty with his college kid face. The frustrat

    Carleon's anger and terror were evident as he whispered in disbelief, "No, Dostov, you promised me!" He tried to stand up, but Nick pushed him back down with his foot, causing him to fall by Dostov's feet again. "Carleon, consider this as you redeeming yourself for your sins all this time," Dostov said calmly. "Isn't now the right time to make amends for everything?" He whispered softly, looking down at the side of his foot. "Vlad will retaliate against you!" Carleon shouted in anger. Dostov stared at him expressionlessly. "Haven't you realized yet? Vlad has abandoned you. He knows about your plan to form your own clan. Isn't that why you were looking for the newborn Valkyrie? To gather power and break free from Vlad?" "No..." Carleon shook his head. "Dostov... You've set me up." His voice sounded shocked and trembling. Nick, who had been observing Carleon, now looked up in surprise at Dostov. "Nicholas, you should take him away. Gregory and Lana must be waiting," Dostov continue

    I didn't have time to see what happened next because Volder pulled me and slammed me onto the carpet, causing my back to hit the floor hard. I quickly rolled to the side to avoid his black hands and long nails that were about to slash me.I stood up and approached the baby doll with one hand while Volder, the man in front of me, hissed angrily. He lunged at me, aiming for the baby doll I was holding, but once again I managed to dodge him. I couldn't see where I was going because all my focus was on Volder in front of me, but the sounds around me were chaotic."Don't you dare touch me," I hissed angrily, showing my own fangs. Volder smirked mockingly and lunged towards me. I tried to dodge him again, but one of his hands managed to grab my long hair and yank it forcefully, pulling my body towards him. I tried to fight back with one hand, but he yanked my hair down again and slammed his knee into my head with great force.He threw me to the floor again and reached for the bundle I was h

    Chapter 132 It felt like a wave of icy water washed over my body as I heard Carleon's last question. Carleon. Nick and I looked at Dostov simultaneously, who still appeared calm. Dostov was the one who spread those rumors? I thought with horror, but Alice had said that Dostov wasn't the one responsible. On the other hand, Nick just observed both of them, even though he usually easily succumbed to anger when it involved our children. "This is the second time I'm warning you, Carleon. I'm not in the mood for small talk. If you can't respect my request, you should leave my territory quickly." Then Dostov turned to us, though he quickly winked one eye at me. The tension in my shoulders eased. Dostov walked back to his seat and sat down. "Ah, forgive me once again. I just wanted to see the reactions of the new members of your clan who are present here. Consider it as me helping you test their loyalty to you," Carleon continued. So his previous question was a provocation for us... "If

    I could hear the pounding of my own heart. We walked side by side. Alice separated herself from us, as she was planning to enter after Dostov finished speaking. I had heard stories about Carleon from Greg and Lana, who had met him directly. As Vlad's right-hand man, he was incredibly loyal and always carried out his duties perfectly. According to Nick's stories, Vlad never intervened directly or displayed his powers openly because everything was done by Carleon and his subordinates. I had to remind myself repeatedly that we were safe and under the protection of the Dostov clan. We entered the ballroom of the headquarters accompanied by around eight members of other clans. However, Carleon's entourage had not yet appeared; it seemed they were still in the elevator as this headquarters was located on the top three floors of this hotel building. Dostov sat in his chair casually, wearing a yellow hoodie that contrasted with the black robe we were wearing. We stood around his chair sile

    The day we have been waiting for has finally arrived. As planned, we all gathered at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel at ten in the morning. Dostov would receive Carleon in the same ballroom as our honorary clan acceptance ceremony yesterday.If Carleon does indeed come today, then some clan members designated by Dostov will also be present as witnesses, although we are also sure that Carleon will not come here alone.While I am nervous, there is someone much more nervous than me at the moment. Lana's face has been pale since we met this morning, and Greg hasn't let go of her embrace. I'm sure Greg's feelings right now aren't doing well either, but he hides his worries very well behind a calm and normal expression on his face.We have to separate to discuss what we need to do later. Greg, Lana, and Luke are waiting in one of the rooms directly connected to the ballroom. Meanwhile, me, Nick, Dostov, and Alice are talking in another room that is more private.Other clan members are waiting in

    Chapter 129Dostov informed us to evacuate Elliot and Rosie from Manhattan as soon as possible, so today we planned to leave for San Francisco.Sebastian and Ludmila Moran... I don't remember them very well because we only met once, that too when I was still human. The only thing I remember from that night is Greg's confession that he was the one who bit me six months ago.But as far as I remember, the husband and wife seemed friendly and accepting of me back then, and most importantly, Nick trusted them.We had to hire a private jet because... of course, because of Elliot. He couldn't stop saying "yum yum" to every human he met. Even Nick noticed Elliot's strange behavior at the Waldorf Astoria hotel last night. We were also afraid that Elliot would show his little fangs to everyone if we took a regular plane.Almost a year and a half has passed since I moved to Manhattan, but San Francisco still looks the same. Strangely, I don't miss this place at all, even though I lived in this c
