Sorah’s POV-Erza is here?But why will she come here? That’s one person in my family who’s barely shown any awareness of my existence and rather holds indifference towards me. She wasn’t even at my wedding and neither did I get to see her even after that until this day.“She’s on her way up here. The moment I saw her, I ran here to inform you.”Mei goes further to tell pensively, and as she makes to speak further, we both stiffen suddenly and look towards the door. They say it’s those with supernatural gifts that are capable of perceiving the auras people emit. But when it comes to the Pride of the Strauneuff family, even an infant can perceive the overwhelming and esteeming aura she wields.“Mei,” I give her a call to signal her to get in order while I seat properly as we watch the door come open. In tentative steps, the person outside the door walks in, as if unsure if this is the right place they were directed to. “Hello? Sorah…”Her voice tapers off and our eyes meet.

Sorah's POV.-Diana meets my twitching glare with an air of triumph as her face morphs into a dark grin, mocking my helpless state before she starts to walk toward us.The look on her face irks me as I angrily shake my body to loosen Devon's solid grip on my upper arms. His grip refuses to budge and I want to try harder in my tension to go over to Mei who's laying unconscious across from where I am.As Diana makes a few steps of approach, smugly lifting her right ankle-booted foot, in a shocking moment, the exit doors are flying off their hinges and blasting inwards with an explosive BOOM!Diana screams as the brutal impact slams into her back, kicking her off her feet and sending her flying and crashing onto the floor with a clatter.W-what the...surprise roots me in my spot as a cloud of sawdust consumes the entire space around where the doors should've been and also the spot Diana had been sashaying just now. I even cease to breathe as my wide eyes scrutinize the smoke of dust.I

Sorah's POV.-“It’s a little town on the edge of the wood that inhabits the humans who’ve decided to live amongst the Vampires…” Mei is busy enlightening me about our destination while my focus keeps drifting in and out thanks to the emotional dilemma I caught myself in.“We’re safe for the time being if we stay there. I’ll go look around for a clinic while you take your rest, My Lady,” I hear her voice her worries and turn to see her beside me. We’re in a taxi heading to the small town of Reaq. Still staring at her as she goes on talking, my mind drifts away completely. It’s thanks to Mei’s hardworking nature we’ve been able to survive this long on the run. Wherever we settle, even for as little as a few days, she always works up one or two chores to make money for our upkeep. Looking at her, I come to see my earnest wish for her I’ve refrained from sharing with her. Mei, I want to free you from servitude and let you go find happiness of your own. To achieve your dreams, to fal

Sorah's POV.-Fretting pensively in my seat, fingers fumbling over tremoring thighs, respiration stuffy, and paranoia drenching down to the bones. I can't keep still, I'm too frazzled, and all I heard that vile Vampire spew, still plagues my mind like cancer.A soothing hand comes over my hand, giving me a jolt to look aside and see Mei with a rueful smile. She comforts me, "My Lady, please calm down. You don't need this for the baby, you need to breathe and relax.""Mei," But I can go no further. I feel tight and too tense as I lower my gaze and blink my eyes a couple of times.I was fine with whatever Andreas would do to me. My life has no meaning and doesn't warrant any devoted protection. I shouldn't matter any more than that other daughter of the Strauneuffs.Yet, I entered into a world I'd been so curious about, I made acquaintance with a being I should steer clear of, lights began to ignite in my bleak world, and now...my heart has grown selfish in forlorn."What's going on, w

Sorah's POV.-"Your abusive husband?"My eyes grow wide with bewildering shock and I grab her hand in mine, squeezing tightly. I jitter with turmoil as she reclines while I pull her back to look at my displeasurably frowning face."Eliot hits you?" I inquire with keen bewilderment and she shudders and keeps her gaze away.Who would've ever thought Eliot Serhin has such a disgusting personality? This was never featured in the News. But of course, it wouldn't when he comes from such an influential family. I'll need to try and dig answers out of her somehow. I grab her shoulders to compel her to face me but, she starts to speak suddenly."I guess I wasn't what he wanted," She exhales solemnly. "He made that point clear each time he swung at me."She looks into my wide eyes directly as she rasps, "I wasn't as beautiful as you are."Why that- I clench my teeth, flummoxed. My face flames up and Stella gives a short laugh. Staring at my face, she makes a smile I've never seen before. "Ste
