Today is my first day of being regular Mirabel, starting today I am no longer the Vampire queen, who's human, but a single mother. We arrived at a small town in Vienna, and I found out that Malicay had been born and had his entire childhood in this place.
The place we moved into was Malicays' home, it was a beautiful house with a nice garden, its built with clay bricks to show it was really old, however it looks beautiful and modest, there's a fountain at the entrance and a huge tree with a swing, Ethan would love it here, only if he gets to stay here for a long time. Honestly, am not sure how long it'll be before he finds us, but am quite certain Richard won't let it slide.
Gosh, it looks beautiful and well furnished, the floor was tiled with a wooden tile and the ceiling was wonderfully painted, it had a small bar but no tv.
Jack.We were at Emir's place for a week seeking knowledge from her. She was said to have played a huge role in subduing Emerald during the war. My phone rang all of a sudden, it was an unknown number, I wanted to respond, but unfortunately Emir wasn't a fan of technology so I ignored it. Then it was Jakes' turn, he wasn't me so he picked up not caring about Emir's presence. His eyes widened and he almost dropped his phone, the look on Jake's face was not something I was expecting, something must have gone wrong. I rushed to his side. It's unusual for him to drop expensive stuff, so it's important. The look in his eyes was bizarre, "it's Mira." That was all it took to send us packing. All through the trip Mal was hyper, yelling at us to drive faster, regardless of how fast we were, Mal was just not satisfied.It took us three hours to get us to ou
Rather than get scared or try to avoid him, Mal smiles. "You made it." Malicay says. I couldn't understand if they knew about this place and decided to meet up here or it's a coincidence, or if Malicay had told him where they were. "I was wondering how long it would take." What is going on?"You were never good at hide and seek. Not from the first day we met." Malicay was facing Richard with a smile, but Richard had the opposite look. He looked at him with nothing but hostility and resentment. "That was years ago when I always had your back Mal. When I took care of you for fourteen years, making sure you aren't hurt and what did I get in return, your cruelty." Richard says as he stops a few steps from him.Malicay smiled and raised his hand to silence him. "Everything I did, needed to be done. They were just actions a ruler needed to
Something bad was about to happen, I could feel that much. I don't know why he's being like this, but I have a feeling he's up to something crazy once again. We arrived home and heard that Mira was asleep. Malicay walked into his room without a word, and we were too busy trying not to get on his bad side to ask about what was going on. I took a stroll around the house, I myself knew nothing about Mal, I could still remember the first day I saw him, Mal was as fragile as glass, and whenever he was hit, he would run to a corner to hide and cry, his eyes looked like those which has given up on hope and I wondered what the boy could had possibly gone through to look so miserable, but even so, he never once complained to us, and I feel horrible because no matter how physically strong he was on the outside that surpassed our abilities, he was still our little brother, and he clearly needed attention. Just once, if I had asked him just once, I wonder what hi
We didn't tell Mira about the incident, the important fact was to keep the meeting a secret, she shouldn't know about what happened, apart from me not wanting to tell her about that night, there was Mal giving us a threatening gaze. Of course I wouldn't dare go against him,it was pretty obvious who was stronger between the both of us. Malicay was not someone to be messed with.Ethan left for school the next day, I have never seen the child as happy as he was while he rushed to leave for school. All his life, he's been homeschooled and never left him home, this was a perfect opportunity for him to get exposed to reality. Mira was both confused and excited about her pregnancy, but she had been sighing non stop since this morning that it's starting to get tiring from just hearing someone else sigh, and by someone else I meant my brother who had started to sigh whenever she did. "Mira, Mira…" I ca
Mira's POV.I couldn't help but have a feeling of deja vu. Just a while ago, I was undoubtedly happy, for a reason I couldn't make sense out of, I wondered why getting married to a man who was not my husband made me happy, something in me leaped for joy, I felt like I wanted to be with him, I was beyond doubt happy to hear their suggestion, but then I felt like something would go wrong if we get married, I couldn't make sense of why I felt that way but I can tell this feeling wasn't a good one. How strange.Everything was going fast. Ethan was at first against the idea, of course he believed that we would one day return back to his father especially since he was going to have a sibling soon, seeing how his father was risking a lot to protect him in the pretense of neglecting him, he was bound to side with his father, and I did too, but
While using the brother's little trip as an excuse, I took my time to go on countless dates with Ted. The only one who knew about what I was doing was Martha, even still it was hard to convince her to see where I was coming from. She agreed not because she finally understood but because she didn't have a say.I told him my husband and I were to get divorced soon, so Ted didn't seem to have a problem with me being married, and also didn't mind me having a child and being with another, I felt unhappy regardless of how hard he tried and I couldn't decide. Did I want to continue with this marriage and occupy him with my family while he still grieves, or serve as a replacement, I've decided now, whatever happens this time happens, I'll take anything that comes my way without question.As I made my w
I sat down on a chair, waiting for her to awake, its effects should die off soon and I would be bound to explain myself, but I was prepared for that much. Slowly she woke up, looking around only for her to realize where she was, I began to take back every word I said about being prepared to face her. I couldn't speak as our eyes met and only shrink in fear, of course the first attempt she made was to try to reach out and then she finally realized what was going on.She looked at the rope and then her hand and then me. During her long nap I had tied her hands with a rope and then tied the rope behind the chair, so she couldn't move. She struggled and when she came to a realization that she couldn't break free she yelled. "What is this?"At that very moment I lost my words and panicked. "
We couldn't go all the way because of the baby, and ended up sleeping while holding hands. Well she was asleep and not me. Seeing how deeply she slept, I took my coat and rushed outside. I wanted to confirm for myself and start running, I didn't want to use my speed, I just wanted to exercise my muscles a bit and I wanted to take my time to reach there.Hahh. I breathed a sigh of relief when I had finally arrived at that spot. There at the three were Rebecca and I had met for the first time, at the same spot where we planted a tree after meeting after many years stood the man I was waiting for. "You came Emerald." With a grin on his face, he tilted his head and stood inches apart from the tree."Daniel. So it was you." To think he has me fooled by his new appearance, to think the man who was fl
