All Chapters of An Alpha tryst with the vampire : Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

The Tournament (Part 3)The entire colosseum was filled with inexplicable silence and anticipation as everyone's eyes were transfixed on the two fighters on the stage.On one end was the champion on a winning streak, the one everyone thought would be the obvious winner of the entire challenge.On the other end, though, was a bizarre sight that seemed to have no place on the stage meant for warriors. Donning a disheveled, nearly oversized jacket, and shorts, the... boy... couldn't be said to be an ideal opponent to the tall man who stood a distance from him.This lad, Theo, had just said something absolutely insulting and condescending that caused everyone in the room to gasp.The weak-looming kid, having a defiant expression plastered on his face, had just called the Tall Serpent... weak!“What did you just say, brat?”Sure, it sounded like the immature prattling of a child who knew nothing, but warriors weren't known for their nice and understanding personalities.Even though Zeke

Anna's POV The highway stretched endlessly before us so much that I wondered if it would end. The sound of the engine was the only noise we heard as we crossed another nameless border under stolen identities. Dorian kept his hands tight on the wheel, his jaw clenched. There were so many things I wanted to talk to him about but I was content for the moment with watching the road signs blur past, my fingers tapping anxiously against my thigh.Neither of us spoke because we didn’t need to. We both understood what was happening. Our old lives and everything as we had known it were gone. The facility, the experiments, Reinhardt. Everything we had run from was behind us. But the thought of them was hard to let go off.I closed my eyes, but the moment I did, flashes of the lab burned behind my lids. I remembered being trapped on the cold metal table. The scalpel in my hands and the guard’s blood seeping between my fingers.I jolted upright, gasping and saw Dorian hovering above me. "Nigh

Nico's PovWith a simple glance at the vehicles that had just surrounded mine, I could tell they belonged to our gang, and I was almost certain that this encounter wouldn't end well for either of us. Luckily my car had tinted glasses so they wouldn't know she was inside, that's if she kept quiet like I said.I tucked my pistol into my back pocket and stepped out of my car the same time my boss, Dante “The Serpent” Moretti stepped down from his.His weathered skin contrasted sharply with his silver hair and he wore a tailored black suit, which fitted him snugly. As usual , his gold signet ring on his knotted fingers glittered in the dark as he tapped his hand rhythmically against his ivory cane.The men with him respectively stepped down from their cars too and spread out over the area and I knew it wasn't a friendly meetup judging from their faces. I was the Underboss and these were men I led but in the low light, they refused to meet my eyes and I knew that I was in a lot of trouble

The Noble's representative Neron hurried back through the tunnel, his boots splashing lightly in the puddles of water that had collected on the dirty ground. The gong's echoes still rang in his ears, urging him to pick up his pace. His journey to the tunnel had been fruitless—he couldn't find a way in and there was no sign of Serah either.He was just left with the unsettling feeling of being watched and he hoped that he hadn’t missed any important thing happening at the entrance.As he came out of the tunnel and made his way back to the entrance, he was relieved to see the mass of Adventurers still gathered outside.They had organized themselves into two queues as they prepared to file into the villa.It was a rowdy spectacle though as the Adventurers didn't take kindly to the guards trying to organize them and there were ripples of murmurs spreading across the crowd.He thought he spotted Legris and his team ahead of him and he ducked his head out of sight quickly out of reflex.

Dorian's POV“So Dorian, what is it you wanted to see me about? You sounded like you were in a hurry.” The speaker was reclining on an armchair across from me. A desk filled with books and journals separated us.I could see his eyes take in my appearance carefully and I knew he had taken my disheveled look into account.He was my lawyer after all.The main reason I had come to see him though wasn't for his law skills. On the side, he was a private investigator. It was for this reason that I had asked to see him in a rush. “The job I'm giving you should be done quietly and you shouldnt involve another soul in it.”He looked offended and opened his mouth to defend himself but I stopped him halfway.“I know you're going to talk about your professional ethics and all and how you don't talk about your work. This is different, you don't even get to involve any of your buddies on it. You do all the legwork by yourself.”“Alright, this sounds serious. I'll do everything as you say,” He said
