The Hunter Chapter 12
Chapter 12For a moment I forgot why I was even at the Vanderwood ball. “Jarvis, call Shadow.” I said, while fumbling through my holster for the two rings I had collected from the twins. Within seconds Shadow appeared on my screen. “Checkmate.” I said with a grin, and I lifted the two rings up so he could see. He smiled back at me. “Well done, Snow. Well done. I didn’t have a doubt that you would complete this task. The funds will be in your account within 24 hours.” He said, and then closed the call. I checked out the rings now that I had some time. They were identical rings, both sporting what looked like a family crest with large J’s in the middle. I grabbed the wooden box from my jockey box and opened it, placing them inside with the rest of my trinkets, before carefully placing the box back in its rightful place, safe and sound. I leaned my head back against my seat and my mind wandered to Damien. For the first time in all these years I had been hunting, never had I encountered a
The Hunter Chapter 13
Chapter 13His thoughts calmed down after that and he was more focused on enjoying the time we had because he wasn't sure when he would see me again. I sat up climbing from the tub and grabbing a towel for both of us. "Why don't you stay the night?" I said. He smiled. "I would love to." He said, and followed me to the bed. I threw my hair into a bun to keep it off my neck since it was wet, and I climbed into bed. He followed, and I took my place in his arms with my leg over the top of his. He lightly brushed his hand on my shoulder and down my back. Neither of us said anything but I fell asleep with the hum of his now peaceful thoughts coursing through my mind. I hadn't set an alarm to wake up, but Xavier was stirring in bed next to me. I woke up with my back to him but he had pulled me close, and had his arms wrapped tightly around me as if he was afraid I wouldn't be there when he woke up. "Good morning, beautiful." He said, and I mumbled something incoherent. I hated mornings if we
The Hunter Chapter 14
Chapter 14I got out of my car, forgoing my gloves just in case I ran into him. I would just be careful and try not to make skin contact with anyone else. I never carried a purse but I had my card in my phone case, so I grabbed my phone and headed towards the store. I walked inside and pretended to be on my phone to prevent myself from looking around. I knew if he caught me scanning the area he would know I wasn't here by coincidence. I wasn't even really on my phone, I was just scanning my apps trying to keep my attention anywhere but on the people in the room. When it was my turn to order I shut my screen on my phone off and put it under my arm for safe keeping. "I'll take a mango peach smoothie with strawberry and passionfruit boba bubbles." I said. "And what's a name for your order?" The employee asked. "Snow." I said, and then took my card from my phone case and paid. I sat down at an empty table to wait for my drink and within minutes they had it ready. I grabbed it, thanking th
The Hunter Chapter 15
Chapter 15He pulled me through another door and into his garage. I was in absolute shock when I realized that his Chiron wasn't the only rare car he owned. Now I was intrigued. Cars had always been somewhat of a passion of mine, ever since I was young. I was now within my own element. "Wow, this is insane! Do you know how rare these cars are?!" I exclaimed, letting go of his hand, even though that meant losing my connection to his mind, so I could wander over and look at each and every one of them. He had two Bugattis, A Chorin noir like mine but with orange accents underneath and Solid black Veyron. He had a Ferrari 250 Grand Turismo Omologato, which, by the way, is the rarest car in the world! A Lamborghini Diablo VT 6.0 Se and a Lamborghini Aventador SVJ. There was an old style Ford Model T, in perfect original condition, a Tesla Roadster, a really nice Porsche Spyder, a suped up 2021 Honda Civic…. He literally had such a mix of cars, new, old, rare and not so rare, I was in heave
The Hunter Chapter 16
Chapter 16After a few moments that honestly felt like an eternity to me, Damien loosened his iron grip on me and pulled back some. He put a hooked finger under my chin and tilted it so we were making eye contact. “I don’t care if you’re a Hunter." He said, and I could tell he was being sincere. He truly didn't care. He knew what he wanted, and that was me, Hunter or not. I shook my head, closing my eyes to break from his intense stare. "It would never work. Everything I've ever believed, everything I've ever stood for is the complete opposite of this." I said. "You can still stand for this, you can still be a Hunter. I would never try and stop you, I would never try to change you." He said. I could tell he truly meant every word. I exhaled a deep breath. I was so fucking conflicted. I am a Hunter. I'm a ruthless, cold blooded killer. No mercy, and no distractions. Why was I even entertaining this man? This Vampire, the species of which I despised more than anything in this world. Why
The Hunter Chapter 17
Chapter 17I heard my car pull up and luckily it hadn't been that long. I wiped my tears as I got into my driver's seat and clicked the button to close my door. “Jarvis, take me to a place where I can see the ocean from a rolling hill or cliff.” I said. “Yes ma’am, Otter Cliff is nearby.” He said. I had no idea where Otter Cliff was, but it would do. I relaxed some as my car started to head in that direction. My tears had stopped falling now, and I looked over at my dash screen, meeting eyes with Damien, whose face was plastered all over it from my previous research of him. I groaned and swiped the screen to remove the data. I was trying to get away from him, but it seemed that he was everywhere. My thoughts were running rampant with what just happened, and the things he said. I could still feel his kiss, his lips sending lightning dancing through my body. Why did it do that? Why would it? I had never felt anything so intense in my entire life and I was baffled at why it would even ha
The Hunter Chapter 18
Chapter 18We pulled into The Academy and my head was still in a daze from my realization. I didn’t want to accept it, but I knew that wouldn’t matter. Fate had made its choice. I threw my keys to the valet who was an attractive little brunette but I paid her no mind. I just walked towards the door, and hoped I could get inside without anyone bothering me. The realization that I had was huge, and I wasn’t sure how to cope with it just yet. I walked past the front desk, and forced a smile at the blonde boy behind it who was gawking at me. And headed up towards my room. “Jarvis, run me a hot bath.” I said to my phone before I got to my door, knowing that he would be doing it when I arrived. Before I stepped inside my room, I turned around and took a look at The Academy. There were Hunters bustling about, some coming and some going. I noted the decor plastering the walls, and the intricate staircase I had just walked up. I looked down below the balcony where my room sat, and noted the Hu
The Hunter Chapter 19
Chapter 19My nerves were shot when my car pulled into a small cemetery that backed the ocean under the cover of a large cliff and many large trees. I looked out my windshield in awe as we passed old sandstone headstones and some neat looking statues and benches. It had always been somewhat of a strange obsession of mine since I was a child. I wanted to see every single cemetery, I loved how each cemetery had a differing layout. I loved how each cemetery told a story with its inhabitants and you could tell how old a cemetery was by the headstones it produced. The sandstone headstones, for example, told me that this particular cemetery had been here a very long time. I thought I was the only one who knew this, but I had spent many hours of my life in cemeteries across the United States while Hunting. It gave me an excuse to explore. I saw Damiens Ferrari not too far down the path and Jarvis pulled up right next to it. My heart was hammering in my chest, partially from excitement at whe
