Jasmine controlled her deep sigh that was about to escape her. She understood his fear but she knew Loretta would rather die than to allow any hurt befalls him. She was damn sure about it. She moves closer to him and sits beside him, directing her gaze upon his narrow nose. “I understand you, quite well, Rob. You’ve to understand this, every decision I make here and ever, it is for you and your safety. I have to run along for this so I can provide permanent security for you. And one thing, you have to start defending yourself without me. You have your cross chain, it can weaken any vampire. With it, they won’t harm you. Just keep it near you. I will get your food so you won’t hang around when I leave,” she said, pacifying him. Rob knew it was useless to complain, she had already made up her mind. He watched her go with sadness rocking him. How was he going to survive this damn asshole of a place? He already started to develop cold feet for agreeing to come. He was just a seven years
Jasmine and Loretta stepped back into the hall and met the Vampires still playing the games and were engraved by it. “Hey, Attention!” Loretta shouted to draw their attention and they all turned with a questioning grin. Arturo spoke first, “What is wrong, Loretta?” and the others seemed to have the same question burning on their minds. “Jasmine has an announcement to make,” Loretta replied to Arturo's question and they all waited for Jasmine to speak. Jasmine first cleared her throat with a pent-up cough and began, “It has been months since the founder of this great empire has died and this clan has been in a fist-tight for some weeks. As the founder’s mate and the heiress to this great empire, I want to announce my wish to be the queen. I want a date fixed for my crown day.”There was silence for a moment as all eyes were on Asher who stood avoiding Jasmine’s gaze, and ignored her statement through her words surged at him like a knife pierced into his flesh. Marcus, however, spo
“No! Mom, I don’t want to be with those blood-sucking vampires. They are irritating and disgusting… Those people are monsters!” Rob sobbed absorbedly. Jasmine’s heart hitched. She watched him sobbing and a half part of herself blamed herself for the cause of this sullen part of him. But, they didn’t have a choice to make. If only there was someone else to take him in. but she couldn’t trust another person with him in the human world where the Vampires could feast on any person as they pleased. There was no other way to do this perfectly than for him to be under her watch. She could salvage him anytime and any day. She approached him, her legs barely carried through. The moment she touched him, she noticed he averted her hand with a little swung. She ignored the pain in her heart for his actions. She felt completely hurt. “I know you are hurt…” she paused as he sneezed and brought out some mucus. She handed him a wipe from the table nearer. Rob refused to collect it, but went to th
“What!?” Dominic spat with a startled breath by Alpha Arthur’s threat. Though he knew he was right, still he couldn’t be like a desperate fool for aspiring to be an Alpha. He already had an Alpha wolf and his future was promising and bright without the offer. If he mustn’t get caught with fear under this threat, or else, his emotion and authority would be ridden on and trample upon even after he got to be an Alpha when it got to Alpha Arthur. He could rob it on his face, reminding him that he was the one who offered him the position under intimidation. Did he want that life? No! He had to pointedly stand firmly in his strength as an Alpha wolf in every decision and not to act like a pathetic desperate loser. He stood up calmly, “I maintain. You have to give me some days to think about this. It isn’t something I can agree to desperately,” he pointed out maturely and then smiled before chiming, “It is pleasant to have you here in my little abode. Oh! My bad! I don’t entertain you. Do
Asher eyes swept through the glass wall watching Jasmine gasping out for air when in the middle of the new initiates’ further orientation and a smirk danced upon his face. That was the karma for trying to be a man, he mocked her with the smirk darkened on his face. He knew he couldn’t have allowed a woman to get this away with him. The initiates were his sweat, but she was the one taking the praise he was supposed to get over them. It hurt him deeply and he could only wait for the right time…If not that he had his other plans to get her, he could have obdurately fought this to finish. But right now, he could cross his arms and wait for the time to strike. Then it wouldn’t be him and her. It would be the fight between him and that kid in her womb. Precisely, he could allow her to think he had given up.‘Just one thing, you will be down,’ he grunted in his mind. His smirk developed into a mirthful chuckle at his thought. Jasmine on the other hand stopped when her heart kept arched a
A voice interrupted her, “How dare you address us? You are not worthy… I say this again, you don’t have the power to become our leader, so don’t dare try to contest with me!” Asher yelled at Jasmine. Jasmine eyes rose. A smirk danced on her lips, “Tell me, what do you have to be a leader too?” she snapped, her voice was calm and powerful. Her feature was strident stance, avail of strength. “I am a full vampire but what about you?” Asher asked as he moved closer to her. his hands spread apart with a corner of his lip lifted with a smirk. Jasmine chuckled out, mocking his ignorance, “You aren’t a full Vampire, Asher. You were born a human, a weak and vulnerable creature and Kyle did you the best thing to change you to a vampire, whereas I was born a werewolf, one of the most powerful creatures in the world. I volunteered to be a vampire because of love. Now tell me from the right perspective, who should retain the position of a leader between me and you or me and Raul?” Jasmine said b
