Echo’s POVNow, I was forced to choose between killing Lena and kissing Jeremy. I would die rather than make a decision. Neither of them were better choice for me. I never killed anyone except I was misunderstood by Leonardo Elliot that I killed Jenna. And also, I never kissed anyone before. I had loved a man, he was a villager, and I saved his life from a Werewolf. Then we got to know each other and quickly fell in love with each other. Neverthless, he was killed by a Vampire. We never got a chance to be a couple. Surely, I hated Vampire, but Jenna seemed to be different. I trusted her, then she betrayed me.Vampires were all foxy and cruel. I should never let them lead me to anywhere. Now that Leonardo Elliot wanted me to kill Lena, since she had already fainted, and it was the best opportunity for me to kill her, I chose to kiss Jeremy. Even though he was ugly and not young, I could get over all this and did a kind thing. Lena was bad, super bad. Yet it did not mean that I should g
Nathan’s POVI saved her ass in the nick of time! Instead of kissing an ugly old man, I preferred she kissed me. She was so much like Blair. I couldn’t stopped myself from treating her as Blair! If she were Blair, there was no chance for her to kiss such a man as Jerrmy. I wouldn’t leave her alone with this embarrassing situation, not knowing what to do. It was just a nice behavior from a gentleman and I was trying to be nice to her so that I could win her trust. Maybe I was overmissing Blair, which led to my compassion on Echo. I barely knew her, but my action of kissing Echo seemed to make Leon furious and I didn’t know the reason of it.“You are so dead!” Leon never said that to me, ever. Even though he was really cold to be one’s friend, I still took him as my friend. I once saved his life, but I was that kind of person who would never ask for reward while doing something nice to others. It just happened to be a councidence that he was alone and I felt lonely. We became fr
Leonardo’s POV“Back to my castle, and you will find yourself happy there finally.” I said this to her. I hoped to see her angry face. She couldn’t disagree with me but to obey my command. However, I didn’t get what I wanted just like her. Since she accidentally met Nathan in my castle last time, I kept doubting if they were comspiring something behind my back. I was predictable. They DID do something dirty! Why would Nathan choose to kiss Echo since I was still on the scene? Why were Echo Blake so enjoyable? I hated to see her lovely face when kissing Nathan! Apparently, they were planning to do this before I ordered. But how should Nathan know what I was going to say?I simled to Echo, but only I knew how hard it was. I had to pretend I cared nothing. Even I kissed her rudely, I still couldn’t show anything nice to her. I just didn’t want her to find out the real thoughts in my mind. I didn’t love her for sure. I loved Jenna, indeed! While seeing her with others, I still couldn’t co
Emily’s POVI never thought that she’d come back! When Duke Leonardo carried her in the castle, I was stunned. Was she supposed to die in the Thorn Jungle? Why was she still alive? I clearly remembered that the guards had broken her hamstrings. How could she survive? She was just a huntress, and human beings without hamstrings of arms and legs would not walk as she did! I couldn’t believe my eyes!Duke Leonardo ordered that everyone in this castle should watch over her, not letting her escape from here again. But he also said that none of us could hurt her because she got the truth of how Princess Jenna died. Though we had received the order from Duke Leonardo, I had the feeling that she was there to be next Jenna, which meant that Duke Leonardo would show love to her as he once did to Princess Jenna.So I hated her, Echo Blake! She took lives of my villagers. Now she was trying to take Duke Leonardo from me! This time, while backing to the castle, she even had her own bedroom! Was sh
Leonardo’s POVShe was making out with one of my guards! How dare she! Son of bitch! She WAS the most slutty woman I had ever met! She should be! WIth such characteristic, she didn’t deserve Jenna’s Vampire power! That was even an insult of Jenna! I had to do something as the punishment on her.“Disgusting!” I just said this word, and my guard heard that. He was springing up like a spring. That was the sign of fright. I knew they were afraid of me, even someone would pee himself when did something wrong and heard about my coming. Pearl Trenton told me that. She was the most courageous and outstanding guards of mine. I trusted her.“Your...your Royal Highness...”He came to me quickly and knelt down to the ground, even daring not see my face.“James.” I called my housekeeper.He came even faster. “Yes, your Royal Highness, at all your requests.” “Kill him, now!” I said without any emotion and not even an expression. “ Yes. As you wish, your Royal Highness.”“No, please, your Royal Highne
Leonardo’s POV“You will never ever be Jenna, even you got her power in you.”Sometimes, I thought I didn’t know myself well. For instance, I just said to her, Echo Blake, that even she was so much like Jenna, she actually was not Jenna. To be frank, I barely thought of Jenna recently, and I did know it was all becuase Echo Blake had turned up in my life. She was brave and never gave up on anything, even with so much torture and disbelief. I couldn’t help showing true me in front of her. Just as you had known, Jenna was the only one who had ever seen the real me in this world.As I could remember, I was a Vampire and being alone for thousands of years. No one knew me and had the chance to learn about me. At the same time, I didn’t let them get close to me until Jenna showed up in my life. She, together with Nathan, had helped me out of emergency situation, and I was totally attracted by her beauty and elegance. She was humorous and open-minded, which brought me so much fun. I started
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
