Crimson's POVQueen Elizabela has been gone for minutes but it seems like hours, she promised to help but that is what she was going to do."Mother is taking so long from wherever she went to, I wonder where she is?" Leon groaned and started whining like a child."Leon, be patient, Queen Elisabela will be here soon," I assured but I wasn't even sure of what I was saying because nobody knows where she went."Queen Elisabela can't help us, only the king can help us," Tyramon said and we turned to look at her, the eyes in the rooms were like knives ready to attack if she said nonsense."The Queen would only become weak, extremely weak, something terrible might happen to her," Tyramon trembled as if she was terrified of something or someone."Why are you so sure of this?" I asked, I was curious, I still suspected her of being a fairy."I am well aware you are already taking responsibility for Aethelfrith disappearance because that is your mistake but will you also take responsibility for

I could see him fall to the floor, everyone around me was falling on the ground, losing consciousness.I turned and my eyes caught a glimpse of Tyramon, she wasn't on the ground, she was kind of in the air, she wasn't weak like the rest of us, she was stronger, I saw a beautiful wings behind her, I tried to keep my eyes opened to be sure I was seeing right.I felt liquid rolling down my nose, I touched my nose and discovered it was blood, what is going on?

He laughed then continued running.It was a daily routine for Leon and I to run round the forest every morning, we call it keeping fit but in reality we were just trying to train all our senses. I ran as fast as I could to get to the house before Leon. I entered the house, the maid giving me my face towel and bottle water, Leon following suit."That was a good run" Leon hit my chest playfully then chuckled."Yep, it could have been if you didn't cheat by using your powers ." I chuckled, dropping my face towel on the table."Aren't you going?" Leon aksed "Going where?" I asked him back"Today is your mom's death anniversary" Leon said "Ohh, that's right, today is really Lady Ambrosia's death anniversary but Leon you know I don't attend such occasions" I said, making a playful gesture with m
Aethelfrith's POVWe arrived at the event a little bit late, everyone was dressed in all black, mom's photography right from her childhood till her last picture was placed in every concern of the room. The room was decorated with her favorite colors and flowers.I was most shocked when I saw my own father and mother at the event."Didn't they hold theirs back at home?" Leon whispered to me "How would I know?, We are both here." I whispered back. We both walked towards them to greet them."My Lord and Queen Elisabela" Leon and I greeted in unison and bowed respectfully."I see, you have refused to come home" Father said looking directly at me."You could have atleast responded to our greetings first" I said, Leon pinched me on the hands.Father looked at me, challenging me to repeat myself again. I was about to let him know I don't fear him before mother stepped in."Aethelfrith sweetheart, we have missed you so much, when will you be home?." Queen Elisabela asked calmly."Soon mother
Aethelfrith's POV"A package is here for you" Leon shouted all the way from downstairs. I left my room, went downstairs to see what this package is all about."What's in the package?" I asked Leon"I wouldn't know, I haven't opened the package" Leon said, he opened the package. It was big picture frame, The picture on the frame was taken during my mom's anniversary. It was taken in the kitchen but I don't remember anyone apart from I and Tryamon in the kitchen. The picture shows us backing the camera."It's beautiful" Leon said still admiring the frame."It is but I don't recall anyone apart from the two of us in the kitchen that evening" I said still confused."Meaning you know her?" Leon asked"I don't really know her, I didn't even get to see her face but her voice was beautiful" I said to Leon remembering that evening and her."Do you like her?" Leon asked."How can I like someone I don't even know?" I asked back"There is a note at the back of the frame" Leon said handing the no
Aethelfrith's POV"She is here," I said to Leon."Who is here?" Leon asked as he moved closer to me."Tryamon," I said to Leon."How do you know that?" Leon asked, surprised."I can smell her, I can hear her talk and laugh." I told Leon.Without a second thought,I excused myself from the table and approached Tryamon. As I got closer, I noticed the same beautiful tattoo on her arm, just as I had seen in the picture, in my dreams and when I met her in the kitchen that evening"Tryamon?" I called out softly, unsure if it was really her.Tryamon turned toward me, her eyes meeting mine with a mix of surprise and curiosity. She recognized me, the man whose dreams she has been manipulating, but she hadn't expected to see me in person."Aethelfrith," she whispered, a smile playing on her lips. "I never thought we would meet like this." She smirked.I couldn't help but smile in return, relief washing over me. The connection I had felt was real, and now, finally, we stood face to face.As Tryam
Tryamon's POV"Aethelfrith, what a captivating name for a captivating vampire" I said to Bella, still sipping my wine."Who's that?" Bella asked curiously."The half blooded vampire I met at the death anniversary dinner yesterday" I told her.Bella raised an eyebrow, clearly intrigued by my statement. She leaned in closer, her eyes shining with curiosity. "Tell me more, Tryamon," she urged.I took another sip of my wine, savoring the rich flavors before continuing. "Aethelfrith is unlike any vampire I've encountered before," I began, a hint of excitement in my voice. "His presence commanded attention from the moment he walked into the room. He exuded an air of mystery and allure."Bella's interest grew, and she leaned even closer, her eyes widening. "What was he like?" she asked, her voice barely a whisper."I didn't really see his face,he was behind me the whole time" I whispered to her.I"I want him," I announced outloud."Just like that?" Bella asked with confusion written all
