WITH ALL MY LIVES CHAPTER 18: FORGIVENESS
She heard a voice that she never thought she would want to hear again. Alice silently turned and saw the woman who gave birth to her."It’s been a while. I thought you wouldn’t be able to recognize me." She wasn’t intending to sound bitter at all, but it came naturally as ever.Her mother shakes her head, " Of course I would recognize you. All these years, I’ve never wanted anything but to find you. I… I’m really sorry."Alice doesn’t know why she’d bother coming here again. And yet, she found herself coming with her mother inside the house to "talk"."Do you want anything? Tea, coffee, anything. Do you still like cakes?" She was obviously panicking in an effort to keep Alice in."I hate anything sweet." She answered with a straight face. It was true, and she hated it for the exact reason that she loved it when she was younger. It reminds her of her mother, and she doesn’t want to."Oh." There was an awkward silence after that. Alice remained seated while roaming the place with her ey
WITH ALL MY LIVES CHAPTER 19: OUT OF CURIOSITY
Alice stopped her motorcycle after reaching an alley, knowing that she was being followed.She removed her helmet and pointed a gun on the man that has been following her since earlier. The man also got out of his motorcycle and raised his hands in efforts of making sure that Alice wouldn’t shoot him."I’m not an enemy." He declared after removing his helmet. The man was twice as tall as her body frame, but it didn’t faze Alice. She knew that he was a human, and if she could knock down a vampire, she could certainly do the same with a human.Although she was relieved that her hunch was wrong and it wasn’t a vampire that was following her.Alice didn’t let her guard down, "You’re not exactly a friend either. Identify yourself, or I might shoot." She knows the rules of the organization. They weren’t allowed to kill a human, but if he tried anything funny then she wouldn’t hesitate for even a second. Her life was already threatened by a pureblood vampire out of spite of those roots a hun
WITH ALL MY LIVES CHAPTER 20: HALF THE TRUTH
Just when Alice thought she could have a peaceful night, she found one of her teammates waiting on her porch like a sad puppy abandoned by its owner. It made sense, as it suddenly rained and it adds to the dramatic ambiance."What the hell is he doing in there?" She mumbled and removed her motorcycle helmet before approaching him, not minding that she was getting wet because of the sudden rain."Carl." She called with obvious irritation, "Why are you here?"He pursed his lips, not appreciating her tone, but let it go as it was her normal tone most of the time."Where have you been?" He couldn’t help but ask while Alice quietly opened the door.She turned to him and arched an eyebrow, "Don't answer my question with another question. I don’t recall you having the right to ask me that question, especially now that we’re both suspended."He firmly closed his eyes and breathed loudly. Carl had been unable to comprehend what he was feeling since earlier. He was upset about Black Lotus not t
WITH ALL MY LIVES CHAPTER 21: DEFEAT
Alice went on a hunt, leaving her assigned partner for the nth time. She works on her own, and having someone around would only hinder her style. Alice rarely fails at killing the vampires she meets, and most of those moments are when she tries to work with a partner or a group.It hasn’t been long since she was out and successfully spotted a vampire about to prey on a human that wasn’t even compelled. They usually attack after the vampire has compelled the human, but the vampire looked new and was unaware of what it was doing. She immediately moved before the vampire could kill its victim.And that’s how Carl and Alice met. It was the first time she encountered a human who was not compelled. Carl was scared out of his wits that time. Meanwhile, Alice couldn’t think of anything but to drag him back to headquarters. That is when he learned about the existence of vampires and hunters alike.Clarisse already offered Carl money and a contract for him not to tell anyone what he saw, along
WITH ALL MY LIVES CHAPTER 22: PAIN IN THE ASS
"How did it go? Have you convinced her?" Clarisse immediately asked as soon as she entered the training grounds.Johan scoffed hearing his old friend’s question, "Thank you for coming all the way here to fetch my hard headed hunter. I hope I didn’t bother you so much, even though I know how awful the situation was back in your division. Yes, you’re welcome, Clarisse. No problem at all." he answered sarcastically.She chuckled and went to embrace her old friend. They’ve been on the same team for years. Johan could have been on the list of people who fought alongside with Clarisse against the pureblood that killed her whole team. It was a lucky moment that Johan was sent to help another division. He regretted it, thinking that he couldn't do anything for his fallen friends, but Clarisse healed with him. It was hard for the both of them, but they moved on."I miss you too." She responded with a joke and finally let go of him. They haven’t seen each other in a while despite being part of t
WITH ALL MY LIVES CHAPTER 23: HOLD BACK
"I just left this era in my life just to be thrown back here again…" Kate mumbled and groaned. She wasn’t really blaming anyone, but she’s just devastated that she had to attend the same classes she dreaded for a year. "Sorry…" Arianne answered and closed her eyes in embarrassment. She already apologized to everyone, and no one really looked angry at her, but she’s still regretful, especially when she remembers that they had to take such classes to "reassess" themselves and to reflect on what they did. It was the first time that she had ever been suspended or had any sort of bad record. She is certain that the others haven’t had any suspensions in the past either, aside from Karina and Alice. She could feel all the new recruits staring at them with curiosity and confusion. Arianne heaved a sigh and turned to their leader with pure regret in her eyes. Alice was glaring up front, but she could also feel everyone staring at them… and she’s starting to lose her patience. "I’ll gouge ev
WITH ALL MY LIVES CHAPTER 24: SERVE JUSTICE
Alice grinned and motioned for the trainee to attack first. One thing about fighting is that physical prowess isn’t the only important thing . You have to be mentally prepared too. Once the enemy has broken you from the inside, it will be hard to win.The trainee quickly attacked. Alice easily dodged his careless attack and quickly went behind him, "You were bitten by your enemy. You’re good as dead." She whispered, teasing the man around twenty two or three. He seemed to be the eldest in the class too.He quickly tried to elbow her in the face, but Alice was fast enough to dodge, duck, and kick his leg to subdue him."You can’t head into the fight with a hot head and no actual plan. A combat like this was the last thing that should happen. No matter what we do, vampires are stronger and faster than us. You can’t just attack me like a hoodlum. Think before you attack, and don’t fall for petty taunts. Do you know how cunning vampires can be? You’ll lose even before the actual fight if
WITH ALL MY LIVES CHAPTER 25: SEEM WORTHY
"Well that wasn’t so bad." Karina commented after they finished the class. They would still have to attend the same class for several days, but it’s better than being stuck in her house. Furthermore, they are permitted to enter the headquarters and continue to train in this manner."It wasn’t bad until you realized that you had to wake up early again." Alice answered and sipped on her coffee.Karina’s face crumpled in realization, "I should sleep as soon as I get back to the house…" Alice just stared at Karina, wondering if she'd agree to replace her as a leader once she quit the group.The woman immediately noticed and accidentally played a staring game with Alice until Arianne arrived at the locker room.She looked at the two with confusion in her eyes, "Why do I feel like I interrupted something?" Arianne asked, more to herself than to the two."Ask her, she suddenly glared at me like she’s going to eat me alive." Alice wasn’t sure if Karina was just overreacting or she was really
