My Vampire Prince Craved a Human’s Touch. I Let Him Go Chapter 13
I saw Emery out. Just before closing, Calvin came in.His white shirt was rumpled, and he smelled of alcohol.He looked awful. His voice was hoarse."Amaya, could I have a glass of water?"I asked one of the staff to bring him one.We closed up a little while later.Calvin followed me out to my car. Only when I'd gotten in did he say that he missed Noah.Could he ride home with me to see him?"Sorry. He's staying at my mother's for a few days. You can arrange a visit under the agreement."Calvin hurried to stop me."Amaya."I was wrong. I'm sorry. I let you down, and I let Noah down."Can you forgive me? If you'll give me another chance, I'll put everything I own in your name."I shook my head.He stepped closer and gripped the car door. There was an edge of desperation in his voice."I swear, if it ever happens again, I'll walk away with nothing. I'd had too much to drink that first time. I acted on impulse. I thought our life had gotten too predictable."When I asked to dissolve our

So her husband had held on to those photographs all this time. Only tonight had he chosen to use them.After that, I couldn't imagine Calvin going through with the bond.He hated being lied to, and now there was a public scandal over his affair with a married human.He did his best to keep the story quiet, but his business rivals still got wind of it.They made the most of it. His reputation took a beating.The family businesses had built whole advertising campaigns around his title. Now every poster bearing his face came down.To stop the story from spreading, he paid Catalina's husband to issue a public apology and say the images had been doctored.Catalina left her job at the estate.According to Emery, it was only then that her divorce actually went through. Her ex walked away with a small fortune.During that time, Calvin came to see Noah a few times.He looked tired.Sometimes he asked to stay for dinner. I always said no.One night, he lingered in the doorway, struggling to get

The next time Emery came by, she told me Catalina had accompanied Calvin to his father's birthday dinner as his secretary.She'd been keeping a much lower profile since they got back.It sounded as if Calvin had finally made her some kind of promise.Emery asked what I thought."Good for them.""Really?" she said, startled."Do you mean that, Your Highness? She's about to get everything she wanted."I nodded.Of all the people Calvin could have chosen, he'd gone straight for the one who'd bring him the most trouble.I could live with that.That same day, we finished putting the final touches on the menu and the décor.The café was officially open.I posted a photo to mark the occasion.Then I circled another date on my calendar.Five days to go.For the first three days the café was open, I worked late every night.I hardly looked at my phone.Only when I cleared my messages did I see the congratulations Calvin had sent for the opening.I deleted the message and wrote to arrange a time

My hands curled into fists. I turned my back on her and went to Noah first.He was wide awake now, trying to hide his disappointment.I promised to take him to the amusement park the following evening and soothed him back to sleep.When I came out, Catalina was still in my living room. She'd helped herself to a glass of red wine.I knew why she was there.Calvin's father's birthday was a few days away. We'd always gone together.Calvin had already called to ask if I'd make the trip back to his old estate with him this year.Catalina didn't want me going.His parents lived far enough away that we'd have to stay overnight. A visit like that could bring back a lot of memories.She didn't want to take that chance. She'd come to provoke me, then use my reaction to make Calvin choose a side.That suited me fine.The money had cleared. I was through pretending we were all on good terms.I walked up to her, looked down, and slapped her.I held back, but the blow still snapped her head to the s

After dinner, I went to see a private investigator.I'd contacted his agency the night before, and he already had news for me.That was quick.He handed me a file.It was Catalina's.Human. Married. One child, age twelve.Her husband worked at a factory in a neighboring city.Apart from her husband, the person she'd been in touch with most over the last two years was her younger brother.Her brother knew about Calvin.Even after everything I'd learned, that file still surprised me.She'd told everyone at the estate she was divorced. She'd never mentioned a child.And the divorce had never happened.I asked the investigator whether he'd verified the information.He nodded and pushed the marriage record across the desk."You can rely on it. If you'd like, I can send a copy to Prince Calvin.""No, thank you."I hadn't asked for the file so I could warn Calvin.In fact, I hoped Catalina could keep her husband a secret a little longer.At least until my own bond was dissolved.I'd underesti

The first thing I did was ask Calvin to dinner.He seemed taken aback, but he accepted.I chose the place near the vampire academy where he'd taken me for the first birthday we'd spent together.Back then it was a tiny restaurant that opened after dark. Now it was twice the size and doing a brisk trade.His luxury car looked distinctly out of place in the old narrow street.All those years ago, this had been the nicest meal he could afford to buy me.He'd saved what he earned from his part-time job for months to buy me a necklace and bring me here for my birthday.Looking at the man in the immaculate suit across from me, I could almost see the earnest boy he'd been. Then the resemblance faded.I hadn't booked a private room. I'd specifically asked for a table by the front window.It was well lit. Anyone on the street could see us.Neither of us spoke. After we ordered, Calvin unfolded my napkin for me as he'd done a hundred times before, then set a cup of warm blood by my hand.As we a
