Leonardo’s POVKindness and sympathy seemed to find their way into my heart. I never had any mercy on any races. I drank up their blood just for fun. Like Emily, after she lodgedan accusation against Echo. I executed her, asking a guard to trew her in the Thorn Jungle. Anyone with desires would never survive there. I hated betrayers, but I hated those who falsely incriminated others more. If this meant that I trusted Echo Blake on some level.Neverthless, the truth of Jenna’s death was still bothering me. I couldn’t forget it. She was once loved deeply by me. How could I just get over her after she died for a month? I wasn’t that cold and cruel. I just needed to show my authority before someone, like her, the huntress.Nathan should never be her first choice when she made up her mind to find truth. I was the absolute power when anyone needed any help. That was why Echo Blake should surely stay with me. Or whatever truth she finally found, I would never choose to believe.So, the guard
Echo’s POVTonight, I was sleepless. Not because of the nervousness of being a guard of Leonardo but the plans I had to make. I had claimed that to be a guard was the choice that I had to make. The plans to get out here were the most vital.Pearl Trenton seemed easy-going. She was tough and serious, but she let me call her first name with nobody around. That was quite a sign that she was ready to be friends with me. Yet this time, I couldn’t be more cautious. To be friends with Vampire was a risky thing. They were changeable, cruel and devious. As a huntress, I should have stayed away from them. However, Pearl Trenton was the only one that I could turn to for now. So I had to get close to her and be attached to her Vampire power without letting her be aware of that. It was something about tricks and needed some skills.“Knock Knock” I heard someone knocking on my door. It would never be Leonardo, he never knocked on any of the doors in this castle.“Who is it?” I cried out. No one ans
Echo’s POVI should have known that every girl once saw Leonardo would be obssessed with him. The lust of being his girl was like the drug addiction, which made them lose their minds. When they saw my appearing in this castle, they naturally regarded me like I was the one with no difference to them. It was not difficult to explain for myself, but I just didn’t want to because I thought it was sort of meaningless to me. What was the most significant was that I needed to find the truth to prove my innocence.I kept silent, and didn’t want to fight with any of them. However, while giving up on explanation, I was treated worse. It was the time that I should fight back. The first thing I needed to improve was my Vampire power. I didn’t expect to be more skillful when using the power. I just hoped that I could control it.Training soon came to an end. Time flowed like waterfall and rapids. We came to the lunch time. Every guard was sitting in a huge canteen, which was said to be the cateen
Echo’s POVAs I finished running laps in the yard for 10 times, I stopped to sit on the staircase of the gate, resting. Pearl gently patted on my shoulder. “Good! The first task was completed. Now comes the second.”I stood up, willingly accepted her commands. “At all your requests!”“I need you to go to Daisy and say something nicely to her.” Apparently, it sounded like a joke.“But you know we are not easy with each other.” I tried to explain to Pearl about those dirty movements and shameless behavior she once had on me, but she stopped me from opening my mouth.“Of course I know that. Well, I had my own traning ways. Don’t you believe in me?”“I do believe in you, and you are the only one I believe in this castle. And because of my trust, you should stand on my side, thinking for me a little bit, will you?” I felt like I was even ready to beg her.“Learn to control your anger, Echo!” Pearl said with a very low voice. “Now you go and run laps for 10 times in this yard, and tiredness
Leonardo’s POVI couldn’t bear their little unfair treat to her. Even though I was still mad at her about Jenna’s death, I found myself stepping into her trap. I couldn’t help thinking of her, worrying about her and letting no one bully her. What was my problem? I kept asking myself. If it was all because of the Vampire power from Jenna, why I started to lose the connection with Jenna gradually? Instead that, Jenna’s scent was disappearing while Echo’s scent was secretly taking the place of hers. I doubted and questioned, but I still couldn’t get myself out of her trap. It was just like a huge black hole like one of those in the space. Every time any planets got close to those black holes, an unknown large force would pull them in. For me, she was the black hole. I couldn’t escape from her.So I made her my bodyguard after I heard them bullying her in her own bedroom. What a fool! She should have someone else bully her in her own bedroom! Why not just ask them to go out! And why not c
Leonardo's POVThe desire was like a fire which was going to burn me down. I wanted her, Echo Blake! I wanted her so badly! Never had I had such strong feeling about having sex with one woman, even with Jenna. But now she was a match that lit the fire inside of me. I just wanted to peel her off instantly and fuck her right away.She was some kind of resistant to kiss me back. As time passed by, with my seduce, I meant, under my lead, she was gradually getting used to my pace. I kissed her neck where the sweet scent came from. I could always smell that sweet scent, for it was the very smell that made me restless.Fuck her! Fuck her now! A voice in my head told me that.I took off her coat, leaving her only under a bra, and then came to her pants. Some hair were recklessly out of her underwear. I started to touch her pussy where a gentle river was flowing.“Leon...”She called my name. That sound made me crazy and got my pace faster.“Want me to fuck you now?” I whispered at her ear.“Ye
Echo’s POVThis night was meant to be a restless night. No one came to interrupt me including Pearl Trenton. I stayed at my bedroom with nothing to do but to lie on the bed, keeping thinking about what I did just now.I masturbated for the first time, and I took Leonardo Elliot as my sexual fantasy. It sounded incredible, but it was the truth. I couldn’t remember when I started to have feelings for him. Maybe it was the time he wore a cape to save me at the Thorn Jungle. Or maybe it was the time he came to my rescue when the guards were bullying me. Gradually, I found we had so much memories together. For others, it must be such an amazing experience to meet someone and create so much memories together.Yet, we were enemies. He hated me. Even he didn’t take me as murderer of killing Jenna, he still treated me as a substitute of her. I was Echo Blake. I shouldn’t compromise with anything. Thus, I must prove myself to him. After he knew the truth, he might see me differently.With that,
Echo’s POVHe meant it! I could see his fiercing eyes full of doubt. He thought I must have something to do with Chuck. “I...I...” Actually, I didn’t know how to explain that. I knew Chuck Spencer, but not in that way.“What? Still want to defend him?” Leonardo got mad obviously. His smile suddenly disappeared. Friendliness from him sank in the sea. I was scared. Once I was tough, never afraid of anything in this world while now I was gradually getting frightened. Moreover, I didn’t know the exact reasons about that.“Listen. I know you are wondering how we met. The only thing I could tell you is...” I paused, thinking about a perfect excuse. “I met him in the Spencer’s clinic. You know that I had been through the Thorn Jungle, and I was severely injured. As a consequence, a doctor was there in need. I went to the town and accidentally saw the clinic. That was when and where we met.”“WE...” Leonardo repeated that words. “There is no WE between you and him. DO keep that in mind.”I di
