"I don't need to impose my King, but shouldn't your bride be a part of our meetings?" A feminine voice asked.Alistair looked over at the woman, who spoke. She was wearing too much make-up, and he vaguely remembered her talking to October."She doesn't fully understand our world. In fact, she is in the library right now reading about our history." Alistair told her.The lady cocked her head to the side. "Right, but I must ask. Is she smart enough to comprehend any she reads? And why leave a human unattended? What if something should happen to her?"Alistair narrowed his eyes at her. “What are you employing, Gertrude?"Gertrude shrugged at him. "I don't know. She is human."Alistair looked at her. “Well, nothing will ever happen to her. She is under my protection and twenty-four-hour watch."Gertrude gave him a smile. "That's what you said the last time. You bride, what was her name again?"Alistair hissed and got to his feet. “Don't even go there! What happened was an accident."Gertr
"A Lore-being age just like normal humans until they reach eighteen, they become immortal at this age. But even so, they can still be killed. When they are fully immortals, they are also more aware of themselves, their powers, and their mate if he or she is already born and is of age as well."October nodded. "But what about the dying part? How can they die then come back? Because clearly these two girls are alive.""Oh that, an immortal can die, but only when killed in a specific way. They are reborn, and can be reborn many times, unless a blood ritual is done to prevent. Until they become of age, they won't have any memory."October looked up at Kristolf. She noticed a crazed look in his eyes, but brushed it off because she saw the same look in Alistair's eyes most of the time."Are they born to the same parents, or in the same family? How long would rebirth take?"Onyx moved his head from side to side. “Yes and no, it takes an immortal a long time to age, so they tend to have a lot
Alistair roared, pushing away October. She used that as an opportunity to run out of the room and down a random hallway. She tripped several times, but got up running to get away from what was to come.She could hear him shouting her name, and swore she felt the place shake, but she kept running. She bumped into a female that was carrying a mop and bucket, but of them tumbled to the ground."I'm sorry." October scrambled to her feet, then ran off again.She soon stopped to catch her breath, leaning against a wall, then a fit of laughter found its way out of her mouth. She never enjoyed hurting anyone before, but she had to admit that what she just did felt good, Alistair seemed to bring out the worst in her.October stop laughing when she saw Alistair right there before her. He had a murderous look on his face as he stared at her with red eyes."Alistair." She let out, noticing that the fork was still lodged in his neck."October," he said."I'm--''Alistair raised a hand, cutting Oct
October held onto her knees as she lost the contents of her stomach, she remain in that position for a while to catch her breath. Alistair helped her over to a seat so she could steady herself. Then hand her a handkerchief. After wiping her mouth, October looks around the place to see that they decorated it for Halloween. "Where are we?" She asked. "Do you like it?" He countered. "I mean, it's not bad at all." October said, watching everyone as they go about. "This is a mutual ground, where vampires, witches, wolves and other Lores come together to show off their skills and have a night of fun. Some also go into the human world to mess with them. They don’t call it the darkest day for nothing.’’ “Never knew Lores celebrated things like this." “We do. Like I said, most use it as an opportunity to show off.’’ “But don’t wolves and vampires hate each other?’’ ’’We do, but we are on Stoll’s land, so most vampires keep themselves in check. And even with me here, the wolves wouldn’
"My King, I am sorry to disturb you," the man placed a news paper in front of Alistair, "and your family will return soon."Alistair waved the man off, then sipped from his glass full of blood. He looked at the image and read the article.'After nearly a month, there is still no sign of October Summer. Her father is to hold a press conference later today.' Alistair dropped the paper on the floor."You should let her talk to them." Dave walked out of the shadows to stop before Alistair's throne."Right, then what? They will just search harder. She might even tell them where she is. If her father is such a well known and respected doctor, he is bound to have connections, and will try to come for her.""You might be right, you might be wrong." Dave said.Alistair shook his head, looking back down at the newspaper. "She doesn't fully trust me."Dave looked at Alistair with unseen eyes. “Maybe if you didn't keep things from her."Alistair thought about it. "I am trying, but--"Dave cut him
A brisk knock at the door interrupted October, who was deep in thought. She rushed over to it and flung the door open to see a short, stubby man standing there with his pig nose held high in the air."Yes?" October raised a brow at him.He cleared his throat before speaking. "Lady October, you are wanted downstairs. Master Alistair wishes to speak with you before he leaves.''October bit her tongue from laughing at the high pitch squeaky sound his voice made."Lady October," the man said again."Its just October," she told him. "And where is Alistair going?""He will tell you when you get there."October dragged on a pair of sneakers, then left the room, wondering what the great urgency was."I have never been requested downstairs before," October said, but the man didn't reply."This place should have an elevator and electricity." October complained after walking for a while.The man just walked on, not paying October much attention.She stopped when she got to the top of the stairs.
Amanda laughed as she chased after two prisoners who thought they could outrun her."You can run, but you can't hide," she said in a singsong voice.She watched as the fat one tried to hide in a ditch, and the other tried to climb the tree she was now in.Amanda laughed again. “Need a hand?" She swung down at him. He screamed, falling out of the tree, she jumped down on him, slashing his throat and drinking his blood.She soon peaked down at the other man who was trying to hide in the ditch."Give up fat cake."The man made a sound, then got up and ran. She chased after him. Wherever he ran, Amanda was there."They said that you like to play with your victims before you kill them, well I like to play with my food before I eat them." Amanda grabbed the man, ripping his head off."I never like smokers that much," she said, dropping his body, then walked off.Amanda watched as Alistair circled a man that was trying to fight him off ."Not so tough now," Alistair hissed, hitting the man
The moon soon replaced the sun, along with stars that dotted the now dark sky, which had quickly faded away, from a beautiful purple colour. The shade of purple had reminded October of Alistair's eyes, so did the pitch black that it now had."Somewhere out there, Alistair and his family are killing prisoners for their blood. Innocent or not, they are still people." October sighed, looking away from the window, then a chill ran down her spine.October hadn't slept last night. She was on edge for some reason, and with that, she never thought that she would miss Alistair.Her mind was still reeling from what had happened a few days ago. She knew that when Alistair got back, he would be out for blood. She shook her head, trying to keep the thoughts out, but still feared what he would do when he returned and heard what happened. An uneasy feeling now crept through her chest.October took a quick shower, hoping that would help to calm her racing mind, then dragged on some clothes. She tipto
