Present Day
“Wake up you snake, I was gone for just one weekend and you are already hiding stuff from me”, I was still sleeping when I heard someone shouting over my head and my sleepy brain cell were lazy enough to not even instruct me to open my eyes so even after the constant yelling sound over my head I was unbothered, sleeping blissfully until I was disrupted by force when a blow of water over my face forced me to get up and sit straight, I was so annoyed, my entire face was soaking wet by then frozen with the wave of cold water that was thrown over me directly from a cold soul water bottle.
“Ella that was completely unnecessary, you could have just waited for me to wake up before pulling off this stunt”, I was pissed off and irritated and I was not even done registering my protest when Ella threw another bottle’s water over my face and by then I just lost
Although I got inside the car without creating a scene but it doesn’t mean that I wasn’t mad at Elvin, I was waiting for my moment where it would be just two of us excluding Ella out of the scene because no matter how much I adore Elvin still I didn’t want to risk Ella by getting her involved into any of this vampire business, at least not any time sooner. I was lost in my thoughts when Elvin clicked his fingers in front of my eyes, pulling me out of my dreamland, “Were are you lost, tell Ella how exactly met for the first time”, this sudden shot of question caught me off guard, what was I supposed to tell her but then one look into Elvin’s eyes was everything I needed, there was something about his look which was so calming that it made me have faith in him all over again, and I couldn’t help staring right into his eyes, like I didn’t care for anything anymore and this
1830 That day was the last time when I saw my father for one last time, smiling, laughing, carefree, hugging me, kissing my mother goodbye like it was a kiss for an eternity, making false promises to see us again without any of us realizing the irony of the situation we were in. I saw dad riding on his horse along with Mr. Forbes next to him and soon he disappeared in the morning fog. We all were positive that my father would return soon but the days passed into weeks and then months, we didn’t receive a single news about their whereabouts, it was starting to worry my mother although she was putting the act infront of us but I knew how much worried she was, our business started suffering in the absence of our father and it was about time for me to step in as the elder son of the family, to look after my family in the absence of my father, this new commitment started affecting my relations
When Richard held my hand I started seeing visions, it was like a story or a movie playing in front of me except I knew the characters in this story, it was my dad and this traitor Richard, it felt like I was there inside the story reliving everything that my father went through. I was there but I also wasn’t there, my dad couldn’t see me nor could Richard, I was just an invisible third person watching this story helpless, unable to do anything it was torture for me but I wanted to know what actually happened to my dad.I saw dad and Richard they were standing in dark waiting for something, they had pitchforks with them and the horses were tied to fences, my father was looking at the his pocket watch, it looked like he was waiting for any exact moment and the wait was getting longer with every passing second when Richard disrupting the silence of the atmosphere which only had occasional sounds of cricket, “
Present Day:“So tell me exactly what is the one thing you always wanted in your life, like something you really want to have but couldn’t get your hands on it, I’m sure there must be something which could be impossible even for a vampire”, I just rolled my eyes at him and tried to make a puppy face so he answers me for the love of God.Elvin smiled, “Trust me Charlotte there are so many things a vampire desires, like never ending blood supply”, he made a lustful face in front of me which made me burst into laughter. “Tell me seriously, there must be something that you really crave for but were never fortunate enough to get your hands on to that “, I made a serious face trying to control my laugh.Elv
I woke up after what felt like an eternity, it felt like eternity at least where my entire life was being played in front of my eyes while I was asleep, like a dream but it was weird at the same time because dreams are supposed to be absurd, not making enough sense but what I saw in my sleep was far from any dream, it was particular and had a certain path, it showed my entire life played in front of me, where I was living happily ever after for an eternity with Elvin without having a single sign of age anywhere on my face or body, it showed me all the fun I was having, jumping off the cliff, climbing the top most peaks in the world, it showed me how I was actually living my life after I turned into a vampire and those memories all of them were very happy and full of life and I wanted to live those one day and the most weird part was that Elvin was right there by my side in my each memory like a partner in crime.So when I wo
“Excuse Me!” I kept staring him, “why Elvin, why do you always have to spoil everything just when everything is going fine, few seconds ago we were literally laughing and having fun, were all over each other and in just few seconds was it necessary for you to bring down the vibe, if you can give me the ring then why can’t you put it on my finger by yourself”.“You don’t get it Charlotte and I understand all these things are new for me but I have spent the last 190 years of my life as a vampire and I know it all Charlotte, I know all the shortcomings of our existence”, Elvin turned his gaze in an opposite direction of mine but I was not willing for him to rule out my existence again so I kept the ring box quietly next to him and got up to leave the room and may be his manor but as I stood up he grabbed my hand from behind and said, “Don’t leave Charlotte, not again,
“Tell me what is it and I would be extremely happy to hand it over to you so that I could escape from whatever craziness you are involved with”, I said to Lilith so that we can quickly come to an agreement and I get to escape from her.I was expecting an answer from her instead she laughed it off with a smirk, “Trust me babe, you are a Forbes, you can never escape drama in your life, wherever you go it will follow you just like it followed me”.“Let’s not talk about what is going to follow me and what is not and just cut to the chase”, by this time I was genuinely irritated of her quiz round.“Okay, cutting to the chase babe, I want that pendant in your neck and I want it as of now immediately and you are free to go”, Lilith pointed at my neck specifically and I looked into the direction she was pointing, i
It was the first time I wasn’t feeling the dizziness during teleportation, it was a lot less painful like any other time maybe because I was literally escaping death on the hands of Lily who apparently is somehow related to me and zillion years older than me but still looks like my younger sister, which is a really fucked up thing to think about.But I was holding it all together until we reach to wherever we were going and I was blindly in an aww of Elvin after he just saved my life yet there were a lot of question he needed to answer and a lot of doubts I needed to clear with him but all this could wait until this teleportation ends, which may look like a few second process but for me it always felt like an eternity and despite all the positive thoughts of escaping literal death, I started feeling uncomfortable after few seconds but fortunately it all was over in just those few seconds when my feet touched the cold m
