UNDER THE BLOODY MOONLIGHT CHAPTER XX: THE WARMTH
What is a vampire’s life all about? One would usually think of blood and immortality, we’re just one supernatural being that consumes blood or flesh of the living, after all. To obtain youth and beauty. Power and aristocracy. As far as I remember, the moment consciousness laid on me, there is only one thing I felt. Coldness. All over my body, from the insides to the outside. It was cold beyond words. The kind of cold that will hold your body still, you are not able to move freely. And it was dark. Very dark and lonely. As I look at Nero, it became clearer to me. When I met him, the affection I never thought I needed was given to me. It was a big mistake, from the start but it feels so right. Nero feels so right. He is warmth. The warmth in the coldness I never thought I needed. “How have you been?” Nero looked at me with the same longing in his eyes and a faint smile. Silvanna is still nowhere to be found and I am not sure if she already knows he’s here. I did not know exactl
UNDER THE BLOODY MOONLIGHT CHAPTER XXI: APOLLO AND AMADEO
"CALM DOWN. They will get here in no time.” My feet stopped from pacing back and forth and looked at Amadeo, who is now sitting prettily by an old piece of wood, hitting a tobacco. I scoffed at him. “How are you so sure? Didn’t you see…” I gulped, “…what just happened to their home?” He puffed a cloud of smoke and calmly answered. “It was not your fault.” “How is that not my fault?” I scoffed in disbelief for the second time. I can’t help but to feel nervous. Nero’s reaction a while ago was the reaction I kind of expected already, and yet it is still nerve-wracking. What if they just left me alone here? What if… he does not want to see me again because of what happened? I looked over at Amadeo and glared. He clearly does not understand. This is the doing of Prometheus Valentin in an attempt to find me. Why he knows where I am planning to go exactly is genuinely freaking me out. There is just no way… he is that powerful. “And one more important thing,” I massaged my temple as I le

"FOC MODO! INVIENET eam!” [ I ran as fast and quiet as I could when I heard their voices approaching the bush I am hiding in. Biting my paled lips to stifle my cries, I felt the immense pain of the wounds coming from the different parts of my body. I clutched the hem of my bloody dress to be able to walk faster, swallowing the urge to scream and whimper. “You can’t die here, Luna. Run.” Even the voice in my head can only whisper. No. I won’t die here. The forest is unbelievably at its darkest tonight. Every wave of the harsh wind screams danger, with only the moonlight to guide me. I can feel my insides slowly dying but my fast pace is unwavering. While running, my eyeballs reddened when I tried to use my clairvoyance. There are fifteen, no, twenty vampires, chasing after me.I clutched tightly to the amulet, my senses
UNDER THE BLOODY MOONLIGHT CHAPTER ONE: THE BLUE EYED WOLF
“DOMINA LUNA!” A giggle escaped my lips by hearing the panic in my maid’s voice. Ugh, She’s such a baby. I tiptoed through the gate and smirked victoriously when I finally got out in that hellhole. It’s my sixth day in theAerith Kingdom and my father won’t let me explore the place just once. That left me no choice but to escape. Well, I just got lucky because my guards are all busy for some reason. Cresta, my lady in waiting, is the only one assigned for me today. Now, I just have to go through the gates without the guards noticing, which can be done in just a blink. “Wooh!” I screamed in excitement as I was finally able to grace the outsides of Octavian Palace. Not wasting any time, I climbed the nearest tree and gazed at the beautiful view from there in amusement. Ismiled widely and welcomed the wind slashing through my face.Finally, freedom.
UNDER THE BLOODY MOONLIGHT CHAPTER TWO: VALENTIN-OCTAVIAN SANGUINE
Tic toc. Tic toc. Tic toc. MY EYES followed the hands of the grand clock while potato-lying on the couch, then sighed heavily after. I did it simultaneously for a minute now, I think. “Ha!” I puffed after sulking my head to the pillow. I am so bored! Please, someone, get me out of this hellhole. After what happened last day, Father decided to tighten my security by caging me in my room, guards on the balcony, and guards on the door. If anything, they gave me a bell to call the maids whenever I need something. I’ve tried talking to them, but it seems like my father already warned them already how good am I with talking. “I wonder what the flowers on the balcony look like… Can you help me take a look?” “You are not allowed to leave the four corners of this room, milady. My humble apologies.” the lady who brought my food, “apologized” with a cold voice. “Psst… I forgot my barrette in the rest room, can you go take a look?” “We are not allowed to leave these doors, milady. We’ll m
UNDER THE BLOODY MOONLIGHT CHAPTER THREE: THE GRAND BALL
“Luna?” I slowly opened my eyes the moment I heard Everleigh’s soothing voice. My hand automatically touched the temple of my head, it was throbbing heavily and my whole body feels numb. I tried to move a bit, which is a bad idea, it just worsened my suffering. Everleigh rushed into me as she heard me groan in pain. “My, don’t force yourself.” Her eyes and voice were full of worry as she approached my bed and sat beside me. I can’t help but chuckle a bit as I saw panic written all over her face. Adorable. “You made me feel better, Everleigh. Thank you,” my voice sounded so hoarse and strained. She sighed disappointedly and decided to just stroke my hair, “You really are a child,” I closed my eyes in comfort. We stayed like that for a long time, savoring the peace and comfort between us. Sometimes, I think of Everleigh as a snow flower; soft, beautiful, and soothing. She has that glow in her, her smile, and a voice of an angel that can calm the most savage monster there is. An epito
UNDER THE BLOODY MOONLIGHT CHAPTER FOUR: LYCAN VAMPRESS
“You can run but I promise to find and put you back in your place every time.” You can run but you can’t escape. “Giovanni…” I whispered. “I can’t.” He scooped me slowly and held my chin up, his head looking down at me. “You don’t have to do anything. Just… stay still,” his lips are just inches away from mine and I tried not to look so hypnotized by his luscious red lips and seductive whisper. How can a man be so harsh yet so gentle? In the midst of the crowds, I stared at him and let ourselves fall in-depth into each other’s eyes. He moved closer and closer and gave me a swift peck on the lips. It was so light that my mind is debating if it really happened or if I am just hallucinating. “Make me your husband and I’ll give you everything you need.” “EVERLEIGH! THADDAEUS!” I can’t help but shout at them when I saw them laughing and enjoying street food they seem to have bought in the market. These two! “We were looking all over for you two—” “Hey! You should try this.” Giova
UNDER THE BLOODY MOONLIGHT CHAPTER V: NERO
I woke up in an unfamiliar bed. “Where am I?” Everything is white, and there is a lot of some sort of herbs everywhere. The room is also covered with some weird smells of medications and chemicals. “Certus esne id quod vidisti?” [“Are you sure that’s what you saw?”] I glanced at the far corner of the room when I heard a voice, the voice of my father to be exact. He seems like talking to someone. Their voices are low, not wanting anyone to hear whatever they are talking about. I get off the bed slowly and carefully, making no sound, and moved closer to the curtain that is covering half of the room. “Etiam, mi domine. Credo etiam id quod vidit Everleigh.” [“Yes, my lord. I believe that’s what Everleigh saw too.”] My eyes widened at the hearing of Everleigh’s name. “Sinistra oculus conversus alba et dextra collyrium—” [Her left eye turned white and her right eye—] “Father.” I was not able to stop myself to interrupt and carelessly swept the white curtain to face them. They wer
