Eira’s POVWhat is it? Is the boy in danger? I felt worried and I quickly rushed to meet up with him while dragging my injured ankle.“What happened to your leg?” He asked, when he saw me limping.“It's fine, I will treat it later, ” I dismissed and asked him the question pending in my mind. “The boy? How is he?” He shook his head.“What happened?” I was alarmed. “He didn't make it,” he muttered and I looked at him shocked.“What?” I retorted and started dragging my injured leg to the abandoned store. I only took a few steps when I felt a hand wrapped around me. In a split of seconds we were in front of the abandoned store.I looked beside me and saw that the hand belonged to the Vampire King but I couldn't process what happened. I quickly went inside to see the woman wailing and mourning.“My boy, my boy. Ahhh, ” she cried and held the boy in her arms, wailing sorrowfully.“Let me check him, please.” I moved closer to the woman and gently untangled her from the boy. Putting him

Eira’s POVI touched my lips and it didn't feel like another lip had just met with it, so relief washed over me.Okay, we didn't! So what happened and why did I feel like I was hypnotized?Locating my medical bag, I crossed the strap on my shoulder and left the room. On my way out, I saw one of the inn attendants and asked him if he had an idea where the man we came together went to.“Oh, you mean him?” she asked after my description.I nodded. “Yes, do you have an idea where he was?” I responded and she looked at me weirdly.I don't understand why females always look at me as if I wasn't worthy enough to stay beside the Vampire King every time.First the mean healer and now the inn attendance. If they find him so alluring and appealing, why didn't they just go for him? It's not that he's married or something and I'm not a tiny bit interested in him. So they can have him all to themselves.When I got to the place she had directed me to, I noticed that it was their restaurant and the

Eira’s POV“There’s really a stream,” I yelled in excitement and quickly walked towards where I was hearing the sounds. I didn’t even wait to see if the vampire King was going with me or not.Immediately after I got closer to the stream, my eyes widened at how clean and refreshing it was. I could help but watch and gasp as it pristine magnificence. “Are you going to continue appreciating nature or drink the goddamn water?” I heard the vampire King's voice behind me and I snickered. Hmph!I quickly got on my knees and took a drink until my fulfillment. After that I brought out the wooden flask I had with me and also filled it to the peak.After completing my goal, I looked up at the vampire King and asked. “So what next?” “Continue the journey,” he muttered and I groaned inwardly.“Let’s teleport already! Tonight is the Full Moon. There's no way I can be together with you!”I wanted to yell these words to him instead, I held my neck and pretended that I was in pain but he didn’t even

Eira’s POVIt was not my intention to go with him at all. In fact, I didn’t know that he would change all this into an impromptu vacation. All that was on my mind was that we would be back in a few minutes and then boom.“He didn't do anything to you, right?” Dolphus asked again and I arched an eyebrow at him.“Do something to me? What do you mean?” I asked? “Is there something I don't know? Are you keeping something from me? Did the vampire King say something to you?” I threw lots of questions at him curiously he didn't reply until after a while.“If he didn't do anything, it's fine.” “It’s not fine. Tell me what's on your mind, ” I demanded. I was confused and what I hated most is when I'm in the dark about something that concerns me, and right now, that's exactly what I was feeling.“There's nothing actually, I was just worried, ” he replied, but I could still sense that there's still much to this and he wasn't saying it. So, I decided to drop it.“You were saying something tha

Eira’s POVHe shook his head at me. “You are not a vampire, right?” I couldn't help but roll my eyes at him. Obviously, I'm not a vampire. Can't he see my skin and my teeth? Why would he even think that I'm a vampire?“Yes, I'm not,” I answered and the crowd looked at me, all astonished.“That’s why you didn’t know the importance of the locket. Vampires can die to get this.” The man argued. “Can you just answer me? Can I give it to someone else?” I asked again, totally unbothered about what he was saying.“Sure, you can give it to someone else. If you unlock it then it already belongs to you,” the young man replied, looking at me intently.“Alright, I will pick the questions now,” I announced, picking three questions after silently praying to the Moon goddess that I shouldn’t pick the hardest ones.It would be shameful after all my queries and I wasn’t still able to answer any questions or unlock the locket.After picking the question, I silently prayed in my heart again and unwrap
