Chapter 10

Author: Echo
(Clarence’s POV)

Clarence shot up from his throne.

He had an idea.

He would flood Molly’s private blood vault with his most precious vintage, the “liquid gold” of his entire collection.

No matter where she was, no matter what kind of life she was trying to build, she would always need the purest blood.

He was terrified of her suffering with inferior sustenance. And maybe, just maybe, this offering, a gift worthy of royalty, would quell her anger enough for her to contact him.

But when he reached

  • Seven Days to Vanish:Escaping My Vampire Prince   Chapter 19

    After leaving Norway, I moved to a remote town in the Arctic Circle, a place where I could see the auroras.My landlord was a kind old man named Anker. He didn't speak much English, and we mostly communicated with gestures and simple words, but the quiet was exactly what I needed.Every evening, I painted by the fireplace.The familiar colors flowed onto the canvas, accompanied by the sound of the wind off the sea and the echo from the distant mountains.I read. I drank coffee. I watched the lights dance across the sky.I felt truly at peace.One afternoon, Anker knocked on my door. He looked hesitant, holding an old tablet.“Celeste,” he said, using my new name. “I don’t know if I should show you… but this video is everywhere online… about a rich man from New York. They say… they say he is dying.”I put down my brush and looked at the old man’s worried face. “What video?”I took the tablet. The screen showed a blurry video. The quality was poor, but I could still clearly see the famil

    (Molly’s POV)The phone rang as I was stirring a warm drink in my small cabin in Norway.The silver spoon clinked softly against the mug.Few people could reach me in this remote place.“Hello?”A familiar voice, one that had once brought me joy, then disgust, and now only a quiet emptiness, came through the line.“Molly… is that you?”I was silent for a moment before I finally spoke. “What do you want?”“Gods, Molly, it’s you… it’s really you…” Clarence’s voice was shaking, on the verge of tears. “I thought… I thought I’d never hear your voice again…”I walked to the window and looked out at the Norwegian fjord. The distant mountains were capped with snow, glittering in the setting sun. “State your business.”“My love, I… I’m so sorry,” he started sobbing, his words tumbling out in a broken mess. “I know what I did was wrong, I betrayed you, I hurt you… but please, forgive me, I’m begging you…”I closed my eyes.Three months had been more than enough time for me to heal.“Do you remem

    (Clarence’s POV)Victor let out a heavy sigh.For over a month, Clarence had barely fed, hadn’t entered his healing sleep.The entire New York Coven was in disarray.“Father…” Clarence looked up, his eyes shining with a desperate light. “I’ve looked everywhere, used every informant… why can’t I find her? Why?!”Victor knelt and gripped his son’s shoulders. “Clarence, listen to me. If conventional methods have failed, then we must use unconventional ones.”“What do you mean?”The old Prince’s eyes hardened with resolve. “Our family has built alliances across the globe for millennia. It’s time to call in those favors. I will make every vampire in the world know that we are looking for Molly.”Clarence’s head shot up. “You mean…”“A global missing person’s notice. Through our partners on every continent—the European clans, the Asian bloodlines, the ancient families of South America… we will let everyone know who the Thorne family is searching for.”Isabella looked at her husband in shock.

    (Clarence’s POV)After dealing with Seraphina, Clarence lay on the side of the bed where Molly used to sleep, feeling an emptiness that consumed him.Seraphina was right. Getting rid of her wouldn’t make Molly forgive him.The vibration of his phone was jarring in the silent room.“Your Highness.” It was Marco, his voice tense but excited. “We have a new lead.”Clarence’s heart hammered against his ribs. His fingers tightened around a crystal glass. “Speak.”“A vampire in Iceland reported seeing a woman with a scent very similar to the lady’s. He thought she was human, but…”Clarence shot up from his chair. For some reason, he had a powerful premonition. It was her.“Prepare the jet,” Clarence’s voice trembled. “We leave immediately.”The winter wind in Iceland was bone-chilling, but Clarence felt nothing.In a month, this was the closest he had been to finding Molly.But the local contact informed him that the woman who looked like Molly had only stayed for a week before moving on, sa

    (Seraphina’s POV)The sewers of New York, just after midnight.Two towering blood thralls dragged a woman from the shadows and unceremoniously dumped her at the filthy entrance.“No! Please!” Seraphina fought wildly, her nails clawing bloody tracks down their arms. “I can give you my blood! It’s pure!”But the thralls were impassive, mechanically carrying out the Prince’s orders.During the struggle, Seraphina’s silk lingerie was torn on the rough concrete, the sound a piercing shriek.“Ah!” she cried, trying to cover herself, but it was too late. The thralls released her, and she fell hard onto the sewage-slicked ground.The cold, foul water stung her bare skin. Broken glass gashed her knees.Droplets of her own blood soaked into her torn clothes, mixing with the grime on the floor.The thralls vanished into the darkness.“Well, well, if it isn’t Seraphina.”A shrill female voice echoed from deeper in the sewer. A pack of ragged, low-caste vampires were sharing a rat, and they had spo

    (Clarence’s POV)Clarence’s eyes were blood-red. He appeared in front of Seraphina, grabbing her by the wrist.“Take it off!” his voice was a terrifying growl that seemed to rise from the depths of hell.He roughly tore the exquisite gown from her body. The fabric scraped her skin, and she shrieked, trying to break free, but his strength was absolute.The moment the dress was back in his hands, he folded it with painstaking care, as if holding the most precious artifact in the world.“Clarence! Are you insane?” Seraphina clutched her bleeding mouth, her voice shrill. “You’re doing this for a woman who already left you? She doesn’t love you! If she did, she never would have gone!”Her words stopped abruptly as Clarence held the memory-filled ring up to her face.Visions of her taunting messages, recordings of her venomous words, all projected from the ring’s faint glow.Seraphina’s face went white, whiter than a corpse.Her lips trembled, but no words came out.“You were very thorough,
