I thought I had died, but when I opened my eyes, I found myself in an unfamiliar room. The light coming from the ceiling was so strong that it made me put my hand in front of my eyes. After my eyes adjusted, I sat down, observing the entire room. It wasn’t big and there was no other type of furniture inside other than the table beside the bed. The room wasn’t that special. People only used that kind of room to kill time or hid from someone they didn’t want to see while doing something. I touched my head, trying to figure out how I got there. The last thing I remembered was the lightning hitting me. Going back to what happened only made me sad. I realized my mother had died because of the lighting. I didn’t even know how it happened. I had not heard of anybody who could control the lightning, even from the race of vampires. Out of frustration, I walked down off the bed to pee in the bathroom. My body felt so light, which I just ignored. Since everything was close to each other, it on

The living room looked empty when I entered, even though there were types of furniture in their right place. Maybe the old vibe of the room had something to do with it, or because no one was around. The chandelier in the ceiling didn’t help to change the atmosphere, even if it was glowing. I looked at the fireplace beside the big flat-screen television when the firewood lit up. It surprised me a little, but it didn’t last long. I knew it was possible because I was in a mansion filled with vampires. I turned around when I felt my father behind me. He was standing there looking at me without blinking an eye. “Why don’t you sit down? We have to talk while they’re not here,” he said to me. I looked at him in confusion. “Who are you referring to?” I asked him. “Your mother and siblings.” I understand why he said that. He didn’t want his wife and children to see that he was talking to his son, Liam. Liam didn’t have a good relationship with his family, just like what Gavin said to me. He

I found this room underground at the very end of a staircase while roaming around the mansion. It had a big steel door, double the size of an ordinary human. There were patterns drawn on its front that told a story about the history of my father’s family. It was hard for me to understand the flow, so I stopped checking them. I pushed the steel door instead. The clanking sound it made echoed through the stairway behind me. The moment I opened up the door, a vacant space greeted me from the other side. There was nothing inside, and water flooded the room a foot high. I turned around when I heard footsteps coming down the stairs. I saw Mike walking slowly. “What is this place for?” I asked him. I wanted to know if they used the room for conducting ceremonies. “It’s a training room,” Mike answered me as he approached me. “Master used to train his children there every day. But he suddenly stopped when you were five.” “Why?” I let go of the door and it closed on its own. It took the but

Now that the world was slowly turning dark, the house in front of me looked amazing because of its glass walls in the front. I could not tell what was inside, though. Grey curtains prevented me from seeing anything. I let my feet bring me there after Liam’s memory flashed inside my head. I was supposed to go somewhere. But since it was on the way, I checked the house first. I felt like Liam was telling me something I need to know about Jax, and that was why I didn’t hesitate to jump to its walls. Without worrying, I landed on the lawn. I sensed Jax was inside and he knew I was there also, so there was no point in sneaking. He had parked his motorbike on the side of the pathway. As I approached the house, its door opened up. Jax came out behind it, wearing only a blue robe. His front was on display, revealing his chiseled chest. He stared at me as he stood by the doorway. “So, you really remember this place?” he asked me. His stare never changed, as if he wanted to bury me alive. In

The room where Gavin brought me in was not that big, but it was cozy. There was nothing else inside except for the bed in the middle and the cabinet in the corner. And it didn’t have a bathroom. That room was even better than the rooms I rented before. Its size satisfied me. But Gavin seemed like my choice didn’t please him.“Are you sure you will be alright here? I have bigger rooms you can use,” he said to me. He was leaning in the doorway with his arms crossed over his chest.I turned to him because I still wanted to ask something that was bothering me.“I am okay with this one. By the way, who are you really?” I asked. I’ve been thinking about that since I entered his house.I could tell he’s not just an ordinary vampire. There’s something to him I could not comprehend.“Why are you asking me that?” he asked back instead of answering my question.“Well, I can’t help but notice how my father talked to you. He listens to your words,” I explained to him.He nodded his head when he fi
