Chapter 5 The fight is against Shade Marcus the Narrsissist Vampire King. Sam stands tall, his chiseled physique a testament to his unwavering dedication to fitness. His bulging biceps and broad shoulders exude raw power, honed from years of military battles. His shoulder-length black hair often falls messily onto his broad shoulders, and his piercing grey/blue eyes seem to bore into those he meets. His tattoos, a striking blend of Mayan tribal and Anunnaki designs, whisper tales of his rebellious past and his defiance against the darkness. As an elder vampire and a skilled fighter, Sam's tech expertise and ancient knowledge make him a formidable force in the world. His raw, masculine appeal is tempered by a hint of vulnerability, a glimpse of the scars he's accumulated over the centuries. After he and Lyra witnessed the boat blow up, they franticly searched with vampire speed but couldn't find them anywhere. Back in the limo he pulled out his Laptop and entered his military code.
Chapter 6 Our Growing Family In the limo, still, at the marina, We caught our breath after that intense battle, Kie turned to me with a determined look. "Raven, I know this may seem sudden, but I think it's best if I move in with you. At least for a while. He knew through their conversations, that she loved that home more than anything, it was the only home she had ever known after her adoptive parents took her and Lucas in. My eyes were wide with surprise, but I nodded in agreement. "That's a good idea, Kie. We can't let Shade win and we know he won't stop. I'd love to have you as my guest." We stopped off at De'Lacroix Towers for him to grab a few things and drop Lyra off. Then head to my home which was only a few blocks from where he lived. I unlock the door and re-adjust the protection spell on my house allowing him and the others to enter. Scuttlebutt rushed to the front door to check on me, to make sure I was alright, he knew what had happened through our familiar link. He co
Chapter 7 Meeting the King "As I hear the news that Kie's father's private jet has landed, my nerves begin to flutter like a bird's wings. I'm upstairs, and after a hot shower, wrapped in a towel, frantically searching for the perfect outfit to meet a king. My closet seems to mock me, offering nothing but dull options. I couldn't bring myself to part with my mom's clothes, still treasured after the funeral. So, I venture into her closet, and my eyes land on a showstopper - a stunning black gown adorned with what appears to be diamonds, designed to accentuate my curves. Next, I tackle my hair, waving my wand in a flurry of motion, trying out different styles before settling on a messy, pulled-back look that frames my face. A swipe of kiss-me pink lip gloss and a dash of mascara to define my lashes, and I'm transformed - fit for a king!" *Niklaus*" Sam pulls up next to his plane and waits for him to exit and when he does he hugs his Uncle for a long time, Then heads to the limo ride t
Chapter 8 Where are you? Lyra's screams were drowned out by the sirens and chaos around her. She stumbled through the smoke-filled air, desperately searching for Brent. She called out his name again and again, but there was only silence. As she stumbled through the wreckage, she saw Kie, his face covered in soot, rushing towards her. "Lyra, oh my god, I'm so glad you're alive!" he exclaimed, embracing her tightly. "Where's Brent?" she demanded, her voice shaking. Kie's expression turned somber. "I don't know, Lyra. Raven and I were trying to get you both out when the explosion happened. I didn't see him after that. I saw them and came running, "Oh my god you're ok!" she hugged her as she started to cry, "I can't find Brent." she said as her world went dark again, and she felt herself being lifted off the ground. When she came to, she was in a hospital bed, surrounded by Lucas, Kie, Raven, and Sam. But Brent was nowhere to be found. The authorities told them that the club had been
Chapter 9 True Intent Shade sits on his makeshift throne, waiting for them to arrive. They have no clue that he has taken Brent captive to lure Raven into his clutches. Shade's obsession with Raven's beauty and power is legendary, and he'll stop at nothing to possess her.

Chapter 10 Passionate Lovers The next day... Kie waits to hear back from Sam and Asher. I walk in and fill him in, "Brent is out of the hospital and completely healed." "What is this Doctor's name that is working with all species? She seems amazing." he hugs me and gives me a tender kisses. " Well, my lover boy, I giggle, " Her name is Dr. Brooks and she is a specialist in Non-Human Patients." Just as he was about to take me to bed and ravish me. His phone rings... "Sam, what's going on? Did you get them? " Yes Sir, we got them all, where do you want us to bring them?" bring them here, to the Towers, Raven and I are on our way now." he motions for me to call for his other limo. " We will meet you all there in the lobby." Sam had called for fourteen more limos to bring them all to their new homes at the Towers. Some needed medical care, and others were very weak from not eating well. Some of the adults were blinded by the light, Dr Brook had given them the serum so that they could
Chapter 11 The House of Maya Sunrise Kie strides into his office, his confident gait and piercing gaze commanding attention and the smile on his face says last night was very pleasing. Sam, his trusted advisor, awaits him with a grin. "Kie, the Vampire Council has reached out to you," Sam announces, his voice low and serious. "They wish to discuss the recent... developments." Kie's lips curve into a sly smile. "Ah, yes. I've been expecting their call. Shade's defeat and subsequent hiding have left a power vacuum, and they need a new king to maintain order." Sam nods, his eyes gleaming with pride. "And they believe you're the ideal candidate, Kie. Your father will be very proud of your accomplishments." Kie's smile widens. "Indeed. I've surpassed even his expectations. Defeating Shade and shattering his hold on the kingdom was just the beginning. Now, it's time for me to take my rightful place as the new Vampire King. of this area" He stares out the high-rise window. The Vampire

With all that in place, Kie was ready.. He casually informs me that it's his birthday and that Lyra has arranged a formal gathering for tonight. "Now why didn't I know this was your birthday?" I questioned annoyed. " Well my dear, you never asked." "I have to go shopping," she said on her way out the door. "See you tonight love." he waves as he continues with his paperwork. After she's out of the door, Kie calls Lyra to make sure everything is ready. She says that they are almost done and that it will be ready on time.*Niklaus*Niklaus hears the news and with great sadness, he wonders how he'll ever have his mate now!
