RavennaLady Vieva's eyes grew wide when she spotted me. She grew pale as a sheet and I could see her hands shaking a bit. She quickly got over her initial shock and turned around, immediately rushing out through the door by the side of the room. I saw that as an opportunity to flee too and ran down the hall, not daring to look back. I was going to pretend like nothing happened, I thought as I hurried in my steps. I was halfway out when I heard heavy footsteps thump behind me. Fear spiked up in my heart as I stumbled in my steps. I turned around slightly to see who was chasing after me and found a very livid Caelum following behind me with large and furious strides. I slowed my pace till I came to a complete halt. He could catch me anyway if I tried to run. There was no point in running, he was way faster and stronger than me. He could overpower and outrun me at any second. There was no way I could win this battle, I had to just face it head-on. I was scared when I heard his

RavennaTaking in deep breaths, I forced myself to calm down. Caelum wasn't going to ruin my mood, I would make sure of it. Instead, my thoughts went over to the date Kalan and I would have later this evening. I bit my lip and giggled like a schoolgirl, just at the thought. Everyday with Kalan, I just found myself spiraling deeper and deeper in love with him. It felt like a really long time since we first met. I mean, yes there was too much going on, but it was easier to handle with Kalan by my side.I rummaged through my closet, trying to pick the perfect dress to wear for our date. This date might not seem like such a big deal, but it meant a lot to me. With everything going on, I just needed to know that I was at least cared for a bit by the one my heart cherished, or else I'd just break down. A champagne pink colored sequin gown hung in the middle of my closet as if taunting me to put it on immediately. The top of the gown had tiny crystals that blended with sequins, the colo

LyssaIt has been a week. It has been a fucking week since Kalan has been discharged and that was the last time I saw him. His words still haunted me no matter how much I stopped thinking about them. “I'll have you all know, I will never regret giving Ravenna my blood,”Those words angered me, making me realize how much Kalan had changed. With the way he was so protective of Ravenna, touching her with utmost possessiveness, and his eyes filled with affection...those were the luxuries I never had while dating him and that pissed me off more than anything. How dare that skank victimize herself and hog all Kalan's attention for herself? She's being too selfish and it made me furious.I could still vividly remember the look of hatred Kalan had on his face the moment he uttered those words. I was a bit taken aback and shaken at the sight. I knew we were currently on bad terms, but for Kalan to display such hate? I knew for a fact that I had lost my Kalan. Knowing that just made me wan

KalanI took the letter from the servant with shock and confusion written on my face. The vampires have a new lord? That was news. After my father slaughtered the former king and his people, I hadn't thought someone would take over the throne this soon, especially not in my era. I grew concerned as the weight of the letter emotionally dragged me down. What was going on? As much as I tried to fight it, deep down I knew something was wrong somewhere, but what?I tried to calm myself down as my thoughts went wild. I grew light-headed, thinking of whether this letter had something to do with the disappearance of Karazcht. It wasn't so far-fetched to think so. The vampires could have taken it, under the orders of their new leader.My stomach twisted in knots, just thinking about it. If it was true, then we're screwed. They would have the upper hand and can easily wipe us out if they wanted to.A small hand covered mine and squeezed, pulling me out of my dangerous thoughts. I looked do

LyssaMy heart thumped inside my chest loudly as I stumbled back, feeling pale and managing to grip my bedpost to keep me from falling. Why is the Vampire lord sending a letter to Kalan at this critical time? Is he trying to reveal my involvement to him? What was I going to do then?Before I could even process my thoughts, the door swung open, revealing a guard who had been standing in front of my room all this while. “We have to go, Miss Lyssa. Lady Vieva and Master Caelum have requested the presence of everyone in the receiving room. It's very urgent,”My eyes widened. “What is this all about?”The guard frowned, scratching his head a bit. “Well, it has to do with the letter that Leader Kalan received earlier,”I stepped out of the room, following him intently.Seizing the opportunity, I proceeded to ask him rapid fire questions. “Why? Has Kalan read it yet? Why are we all being summoned to the receiving room? Is it that serious?”“You'll just have to wait and see, Miss. I'm not so
