Charlotte’s povI did research on the Vampire King. Turns out the library I visited the other day belongs to him as well. “I want to meet the vampire King. I have to meet him” I said to Alexa who just frowned at this. “this is a very influential person. You can’t just walk in and demand to talk to him” Alexa said, and I just frowned.“he might have the answers I am looking for. Please help me” I said to her, and she shook her head. Alexa is very good at finding people and information about them. But so far we have found nothing about the blood mark. Maybe if we knew more then I would be able to find answers to all my questions. Alexa frowned but then nodded. “fine I will help you, but this is a bad idea” she said, and I smiled.

Charlotte’s povThey seemed so serious that I didn’t know what to say to them.How do I even break their hearts and hope?I have no interest in anything that has to do with love.And its obvious that they are somehow both crazy because why?Why would someone spend years looking for a mate he only met once?Because of the promise of happily ever after?Because you were told that this stranger you have only met once will love you unconditionally?And this guy, he really is handsome, powerful and I admit I had a crush on him.But now I am honestly disappointed in both of them for this.“is that all you know? Do you know how to break the spell?” I asked him before I burn all the bridges.He shook his head, “ I have been looking for centuries but no luck” he replied and I nodded.“so, the name of the person whose soul my soul belongs to is Scarlet?” I asked him and he nodded. I got up, I got some of the answers I wanted but they don’t make sense.If I believe him it means that I should al

Charlotte’s povI couldn’t even hear myself think because of this loud noise.My life just turned upside down today, I still can’t believe what happened.I just want the voices in my head to help me make direction of the whole thing.I want to know what it is that I am supposed to do after all of this, but nothing is coming to mind at all.I looked outside my window when I heard a howl, it sounded so pained and sad if I am being honest.Being a witch, I know nothing about the howl werewolves make but I know that one kind of touched my heart.It made me wonder, is that my mate howling?Actually, why do I care?I made sure that he knew that I had no interest in the mate bond.I take each day as it goes, actually on most days I just feel lucky that I am still breathing.I honestly don’t want to push my luck and get too comfortable at all.And I also don’t want to drag anyone into this ill fated life of mine full of running away.I know better than anyone in this world that living on the

Logan’s pov“I followed her like you said in the mind link, she is definitely very good at running.It was hard for me to finally get to her” Dean my friend said.“thank you” I said as I looked at the photo he took of my mate entering a restaurant.“what happened? How did you find her so easily?” he asked me, and I just smiled.“she found me actually, and there is more to this than that” I said, and he looked at me.“the girl she stays with owns the restaurant, its like your mate doesn’t exist” he then added.“I guess I was right to suspect that she is on the run. I couldn’t ask the Vampire King the entire story, but I will find it” I said, and he nodded.“what’s the plan? You said that she wanted nothing to do with you” he said, and I just shrugged.“get closer to her, she is a witch, so the mate bond doesn’t have that much pull on her. I need to form some kind of a bond for it to” I replied.“but what if she runs off again? She has been on the run for so long for whatever reason” he

Charlotte’s pov“Well then, welcome Logan” I said, and he looked at me confused.“Just like that? You made it clear that day that you wanted nothing to do with me” he said, and I shrugged.“I meant romantically; I am okay with you working here. it’s a professional relationship” I said with a smile, and he looked at me.Living in the world we live in has obviously given him trust issues.Hell, I would ask you to walk all around the world and I guarantee that you wouldn’t find a single supernatural being who doesn’t have trust issues.We inherit them from our parents and it’s a survival tool for us.I can tell that he doesn’t trust me, and he is right not to do so.I have been on the run for 8 years; I have lost 8 years of my life looking for answers.I have one solid lead and it might just be the one thing I need to crack open this pandora box.And I wont let anyone screw it up, whether it’s the love of my life or my soul mateThey can all go to hell for all I care because nothing matt
