Kabanata 9BJOURNE can't help but sigh heavily when he saw who's sleeping on his couch. Yakap nito ang throw pillow at malakas na naghihilik habang nakabuka ang bibig. Ilang araw na itong nangungulit sa kanyang sabihin na rito kung saan nakatira si Kiara dahil aakyat umano ng ligaw.Pambihira. Klaus may only be Kiara's birth father in this world but he often forgets Kiara is Gabriel. Nagiging istriktong ama ito kapag usapang manliligaw. Lalo naman ang kinikilalang Lolo ni Kiara na si Karlos. He's one of the most terrifying lycan leaders ever existed, at wala itong sinasanto. The overprotectiveness of the two will surely just cause him and Hank trouble. Ngunit kahit yata anong pananakot ang gawin niya kay Hank, tila bingi ito at paiiralin pa rin ang kagustuhang makitang muli si Kiara.He rubbed his palm on his face as he gritted his teeth. "Lintik ka talagang bata ka." Naiinis siyang humakbang palapit dito upang gisingin nang mapauwi

Kabanata 11MARIFER can't help but smirk when she finally had a look at the gowb designed by her newly-promoted bestfriend. Mas naging grandehiyoso lamang ang damit dahil sa detalyeng dinagdag ng pamosong designer mula pa sa kabilang Distrito.A teaser. A bloody and exquisite teaser... she murmured to herself.Hinaplos niya ang mga batong disenyo sa bandang dibdib pababa sa tiyan saka niya tinignan ang designer na siyang humawak ng design ni Irene at nagdagdag ng ibang detalye. "Ruby?" she asked."Yes, Lady Marifer. Five million golds worth of Rubies," the mid-fourty's designer proudly said. Marifer noticed instantly the fine lines on the woman's face that she tried to conceal with her makeup. Tahimik siyang nagpasalamat na bata pa siya at maganda pa ang balat niya. The thought of growing old and having those wrinkles in her pretty face make her sick.Tumaas ang kilay niya sak

Kabanata 13"PRINCEPS," kunot ang noong tawag ni Magnus nang makita si Bjourne na pinapasadahan ng tingin ang paligid, tila may hinahanap sa dagat ng mga tao."Did you see him? Nandito siya," tugon niya habang patuloy na ginagala ang paningin sa paligid."Sino?"His lips pursed. He cannot even say his name. Inalis niya ang kanyang maskara at hinilamos ang kanyang palad sa kanyang mukha bago siya tumingin kay Magnus. "Him."Gumuhit ang gulat at pagkalito sa mukha nito. "That's impossible. He's locked up and without the major key, he can never come to the surface.""What's going on?" Sabay silang napatingin kay Eric na mukhang nakatunog sa nangyayari."Our banished brethren is here," sagot niya."Imposible. That's probably just one of his minions." Eric looked around with furrowed brows. "I think I got an idea already."

Kabanata 15MALUTONG na napamura si Klaus nang maramdaman ang mga bampirang nakasunod sa kanilang convoy. Siya ang nagmamaneho ng sasakyan kung nasaan si Irene at Marifer habang si Bjourne at Magnus ang nasa pinalikuran, sakay ng kanilang mga motorsiklo.Bjourne knew Klaus felt it, too. Palayo na sila nang palayo sa kastilyo at oras na lumabas sila ng Wales, mawawala na ang angel's circle na dahilan bakit hindi makasunod ang mga pinuno ng Severuz pati na ang pinakamalalakas nitong myembro.Irene's blood was used to do the angelic spell performed by him, Eric and Magnus. Her blood is powerful enough when dripped on his sword because her soul remained pure after several incarnations. Ngunit oras na malayo nang tuluyan si Irene sa lugar, the spell will wear off and the vampires will surely come after them.Hindi nila ito pwedeng iwan na lang doon. Irene's power could be used by the vampires now that they already knew w

Kabanata 17THE SMILE on Yngrid's face was comforting, but Marifer's eyes landed on the scarred part right between Yngrid's neck and shoulder. May kung anong nakapukaw ng kanyang atensyon doon, at habang tumatagal na nakatitig siya sa bahaging iyon ng katawan ni Yngrid, tila ba nawawala siya sa sarili."How are you feeling?" Yngrid's voice was soothing just like yesterday, when she first met her after she got histerical.She gulped. "T—Thirsty..."Mahina itong tumango. "Marami ka bang nakain kanina gaya ng bilin ko?"Umiling siya. "I didn't like the food. It was overcooked."Napansin niyang sumulyap ito sa asawa. Ang kulay ng mga mata nito ay sandaling nagbago ngunit hindi niya nagawang pagtuunan ng pansin ang nangyari. She was so drawn to the pulsating vein on Yngrid's neck, as if she's getting tempted to feel it herself... With her own teeth.Mariin niyang naisara
