Chapter 7

Author: Alyssa J
Life continued for both of us, but on very different paths.

Every month, like clockwork, I received my payment. Sometimes it was on time. Often it was a few days late, with frantic calls begging for extensions.

I never granted them.

I heard through vampire social circles that Damien was working three jobs to make the payments. Security work, enforcement jobs, even occasional bodyguard gigs for wealthy vampires who didn't care about his ruined reputation.

The work was brutal and dangerous. He cam

The same vampires who once respected them now watched them clean toilets.Lily worked as a blood courier, delivering blood packages for minimum wage plus tips.

    Two weeks later, I returned to my mansion.The scene that greeted me was pathetic.The entire family sat in the living room, looking haggard and terrified. Damien stood when he saw me, holding a folder."I have the papers. Signed. And... and the first payment."He handed me both. I checked the separation papers - everything properly executed. Then I counted the money - exactly $100,000 in certified bank checks."Where did you get this money?"Damien's jaw clenched. "I sold everything I owned. My car, my art supplies, some paintings to collectors. My parents sold their jewelry. Lily sold her designer wardrobe.""And next month?""I... I've taken on some security work. Dangerous jobs that pay well. I'll make it work."I looked at the family. Margaret was crying silently. Thomas stared at the floor. Lily looked like she'd aged five years from stress alone."The bloodline bond will remain intact as long as you pay on time every month. Miss one payment, and I sever it immediately. Understoo

    I spent two glorious weeks at the mountain resort, completely unreachable.No phones. No messages. No desperate vampires begging for money.Just premium blood, luxury accommodations, and absolute peace.When I finally turned my phone back on, I had 247 missed calls and 189 text messages.I scrolled through them with detached amusement.From Damien: "WHERE ARE YOU?!" "The tribute gifts are missing!" "We can't get into the Convocation!" "CALL ME BACK!"From Lily: "Sister Scarlett, my agency dropped me! What happened?!" "All my bookings are cancelled!" "Please call them and fix this!"From Margaret: "The art collective removed me from all events!" "What did you tell them?!"From Thomas: "I've been fired! After one day!" "You did this!"And dozens more, each more desperate than the last.I deleted them all without responding.Then I made a few calls of my own.First, to the Vampire Council administrator. "Hello, this is Scarlett. I wanted to confirm the bloodline severance ceremony is stil

    The worker's eyes widened. "These look extremely valuable. Are you certain?""Completely certain. Dispose of them, sell them, keep them - I don't care. Just make sure not one reaches the Grand Convocation."After paying the $5,000 disposal fee, I watched six months of careful preparation disappear into the night.Money well spent for my satisfaction.Then I made several important phone calls.First, I called the fashion agencies I'd connected Lily with. "This is Scarlett. I'm withdrawing my recommendation for Lily. Please remove her from all upcoming bookings and campaigns.""But Ms. Scarlett, she has three major campaigns scheduled for next month!""Cancel them. My sponsorship is terminated immediately."Next, I called the vampire lord Thomas worked for. "I'm calling in the favor you owe me. Terminate Thomas's position immediately.""Of course, Scarlett. Consider it done."Then Margaret's art collective. "Remove Margaret from all events. My endorsement is withdrawn."After that, I con

    I treated myself to rare vintage blood at the most exclusive vampire establishment in our territory.Premium blood aged for decades, $5,000 per glass. Without a whole family to bankroll, this ancient vampire had wealth to spare!I stayed out until near dawn before returning to the mansion.The house was dark and silent. No messages, calls, or texts while I was out - they'd all gone to their day-sleep without caring about my whereabouts.I made my way through the darkness to the master bedroom. The moment I opened the door, my vampire senses recoiled in fury.Victoria's cheap human perfume saturated the air. Mixed with something else that made my ancient blood boil.Damien's scent. Intimate. Close.My territory. My home. My mate. All contaminated by human presence.As I approached our silk-draped bed, a shriek pierced the silence."Ah!"Victoria was lying in my spot.My spot. Where my power anchored. Where I should be strongest.My blood didn't just boil - my vampire nature roared for v

    Victoria might have been Damien's childhood sweetheart, but when I saved his family from death's door, she abandoned them.Five years ago, Damien's family was dying. His mother Margaret had terminal cancer. His father Thomas was in heart failure. His sister Lily was dying from a rare blood disease.Victoria knew all of this. She visited the hospital once, took photos for social media sympathy, then never returned.When Lily needed blood transfusions, Victoria didn't even donate. She just disappeared.I was the one who turned them all into vampires, granting them immortality and perfect health. The transformation cost me immense power - I was weakened for months afterward.Before the turning, I paid $800,000 for Margaret's cancer treatments. I paid $500,000 for Thomas's heart surgery. I paid $300,000 for Lily's blood disease specialists.Only after I cleared all their medical debts and saved their lives did Damien accept my offer to turn him into a vampire.Other vampires mocked him for
