The Hunter Chapter 30
Chapter 30“Thank you, for the gift. And you know, if you’re just going to erase my memories, then I guess I should tell you that you’re right. I do feel the bond, or whatever you called it. But we could never truly be together.” I heard myself say. I could see the hurt in Damien’s eyes, as he registered what I had just said. “I know, Snow. I know, but it will never stop me from loving you.” He said, and he turned and kissed my cheek lightly. I was surprised that I didn't stop him. He was about to get out of the car when I surprised myself yet again. I guess I really didn’t know what I would do. “Wait!” I said. Damien knelt down and looked back into my car at me. “Do you want to have lunch? I mean, it is my birthday, and it’s the least I can do to repay you for Jarvis.” I said. I saw Damiens face light up. “Sure, but no way in the world are you paying.” He said, with a chuckle. I raised an eyebrow at him. “Take me to the place you took me last year.” I said. “Are you sure? It was just
The Hunter Chapter 31
Chapter 31I watched as my 18 year old self came to the realization that Damien wasn’t lying. I couldn’t hear my own thoughts, but I know how I think. I didn't move from his lap, where he had placed me. I kept one hand on his shoulder, and the other I brought up to lightly trace his facial features. An intimate action, and I knew that he had me at that point. “Why would you keep this from me?” I asked him. “Snow, it’s complicated. You’re a Hunter, and I'm a Vampire. How could we ever make this work?” Damien said. “I don’t know, but I don’t care.” I said, and I pressed my lips to his, wrapping my hand through his onyx hair. I knew I could feel the lightning dancing between us and only a fool would ignore such an intense pull. It seemed like he wanted to pull away but the gifted mate bond was just too strong. I watched as he pulled me closer, deepening our kiss. There was passion, there was need, there was sparks and lightning. The gifted mate bond was so intense, I could feel it and I
The Hunter Chapter 32
Chapter 32“Snow… I’m so sorry.” He whispered, pulling me to his chest while I cried. He ran his fingers through my hair and just held me. “I never thought it could work, I was feeling too guilty. I would have ruined your entire life, ruined everything you had worked so hard for. You know I never wanted to be that person, that guy who came in and tore your life apart. You can say you wanted it, but tell me, did you really? Because Hunting is your life, and it always has been. You killed a Vampire when you were 12 years old, Snow. You were born to be a Hunter.” Damien said. I pulled away from his embrace so I could look him in the eyes. “I was willing to give it all up, to give everything away, just to be with you. I wanted to be with you. I didn’t care about the rest. I begged you, pleaded with you, and you denied me. You know I have spent the past 10 years searching for something that was even a fraction of what I felt when I was with you. Even when I didn’t know what I felt? I knew
The Hunter Chapter 33
Chapter 33I was so fueled with rage that I didn’t even comprehend what he was talking about. That, or I just chose to ignore it. “I don't know how to make this right, Snow. How do I fix this?!” Damien asked, desperation tinging his voice. “There is nothing here, there was never anything here. I don’t know who you think I am, but clearly I'm not her. I feel nothing for you. I don’t even fucking know you. I have never seen you before in my entire life... And if I had, I would have killed you.” I snarled. Damien looked absolutely defeated, and as much as it hurt me to see him that way, It was his fault. His fault for leaving me the way he did, and taking my memories. My mind was trying to save me from heartbreak, the same heartbreak he caused already. The way I did a complete 360 when it came to him was completely and utterly his fault, and he knew it. Damien then surprised me, and kissed me. He held me tightly while the memories flashed back into my mind. Judging by the amount of time
The Hunter Chapter 34
Chapter 34I watched him carry me to his car, which was the Ferrarri this time. The whole time I was screaming and making a scene. He ignored all of the dirty looks and opened his car door, shoving me inside. He fastened my seatbelt and I heard myself whining about my knife. Damien then used Vampire speed to go back to the alley and get my knife for me, showing it to me then throwing it in the trunk out of my reach. He then got in the car and started it up. He held his hand out to me. “Your phone, now.” He demanded. I glared at him. I was fucking pissed. I had no idea what I was thinking, being so defiant, but I knew that Damien was pissed about my Hunting tactics. “No.” I said and turned to look out the window. “Snow.” Damien said, with a warning tone, and still I defied him. “I said, no.” I snarled. He reached over and grabbed my phone out of my hand, much to my displeasure. “Who they fuck are you and why are you even here?” I spat. “Jarvis, take the car back to The Academy, I will
The Hunter Chapter 35
Chapter 35“Snow, please. I’m begging you. Let me fix this.” Damien pleaded. I just shook my head. “How does it feel to have everything you have ever wanted sitting right in front of you, right within your grasp, and be told no?” I said, with tears streaming down my cheeks. He just looked at me and he was fighting back tears too. “The difference is, I will forget all of this, but you… You never will. I hope it hurts you just as much as you've hurt me. Now get it over with, take my memories, I can't bear this pain any longer.” I said, and closed my eyes. I watched as Damien scooted closer to me and took me in his arms. “I deserve every ounce of pain these interactions cause me, but I will never stop trying to make things right with you.” He said. He didn't remove my memories, instead he tilted my chin up to him and kissed me. I watched as the gifted mate bond started to click into place between us. It was so strong, you could practically feel it from the sidelines. That, of course, le
The Hunter Chapter 36
Chapter 36'Haven't gotten a checkmate yet? This is a record for you. What's it been, 3 days, 4 days? Has time softened you?' Xavier said, with a winky face. I sighed to myself before replying. 'Hey now, a high priority contract takes finesse. You know this, simmer down.' I replied. I knew he wouldn't reply this late, it was 3:00am. I bit back the anxiety that threatened to overflow from my chest as I thought about how the Hunting community was going to take my leave. I literally was giving up everything. My entire life... My livelihood. I turned and looked at Damien who was still sleeping peacefully. I knew he was my future, and while this transition would be difficult, it would be worth it. Thinking about Damien caused my stress to calm down some, and I was about to set my phone down when I noticed I had another message. But this wasn't from Xavier, it was from Jericho. My heart jumped to my throat. He never gets back to me before the time frames he sets. He's very particular like
The Hunter Chapter 37
Chapter 37Morning came faster than I had hoped. I instantly regretted opening my eyes, as a barrage of thoughts from my conversation with Jericho last night infiltrated my brain. Sleep was a nice reprieve from the chaos running through my frazzled mind. I know I hadn’t had any time to really process what Jericho said, but how in the hell was I going to convince The Academy to withdraw their hit? Especially if they were doing it to get control of his business. I looked over at Damien who was still asleep, lying on his back with his head turned towards me. I watched as his chest rose and fell softly with each breath and it was like I could feel the gifted mate bond clicking more and more into place with every second I spent with him. It made my desire to stop the Academy even that much stronger. I would stop them, or we would both die trying. There was no way in hell I would let them win. I knew my clock was ticking and the urgency pushed me forward. Suddenly Damien reached up and grab
