Katie's POV"Ouch!!" I groaned in pain. My hand only touched what seemed to be the protective layer of the book. Like an air enclosing the book inside of it. It left a burn mark on three of my fingers.I felt someone hug me from behind and pull me away from the book. Inhaling his signature scent, my body doesn't need to turn around just to know who was it."Vlad.." I uttered and smiled. He must've felt my pain and distress that he came without me calling him. But that smile vanished when he moved right in front of me and desperately touched my hand. With shaky hands and a pained expression on his face, he asked, "Katie, are you okay!?"I inhaled a quick breath. Leaning slightly below to meet his eyes since he was too focused on my hand. Tilting my head to meet his gaze, I answered, "Vlad, calm down. I'm fine. It doesn't even hurt.""You groaned in pain just awhile ago! What do you mean, fine!" He frowned, and I slightly giggled. I really want to indulge in this moment, but we have muc

Katie's POVTwo days had passed since I last saw my mate. TWO FREAKING WHOLE DAYS! One morning, he left a note saying he needed to go somewhere for work. And to meet one of the monarchs.I know it is too soon for me to meet them. Or maybe it is impossible for me to meet them considering my race. But he should at least tell me the exact location and some detailed information, right?Monarch of what? South? That creepy Aunt Celeste of hers? Or is it the western or eastern part? Is it a girl? Or worse, someone who is obsessed with Vladimyr!! Just imagining someone trying to get my handsome mate's attention is irking me up.I messed up my own hair in frustration. No. Lucifer's there. He will not let anyone just touch them. And I freaking trust Vladimyr.But not the women!! Ughh. It is especially bad because they do not know Vlad's taken and already has a mate. But if they do and they still flirt with him, I could possibly lose my cool. I clicked my tongue and paced across the room. Sebast

Katie's POVDidn't get to stay at Vlad's office yesterday for so long. But I did manage to visit him and send him his meal. Miranda was about to stop me, but when I was about to beg, she instantly gave me the tray.'Poor Miranda, always get blackmailed by my silly human.' Kath chuckled, and I shushed her like it was a secret.When night came, Vlad was so tired and weary since he had to finish so much paperwork. So, we didn't get to talk that much, and I didn't have the chance to open up about my worries again. I tried hard to conceal my feelings so that he wouldn't know. Vladimyr is highly sensitive to my emotions.So for today, he was as usual at his office. The twins and Miranda came back to patiently tutor me again. We just spent an hour or two together because Vlad came in to try to steal me away from them."We aren't done yet, brother!!" Tori argued and held my right hand."You guys already spent almost two hours with her!" Vladimyr childishly bickered with his little sister. Mir

Katie’s POV ‘What do you mean it belongs to me? Your life belongs to you, Fenrir. Don’t waste it!’ I huffed. I do appreciate him saying those words. Only.. We just met, and he is being overprotective too! I really remember my brother in him. By saying those things, I already know that he meant he would shield me from any harm that came my way. Now, I don’t want to be the young girl who always needs to be protected! I want to fight alongside the people I cherish. ‘As I said, I’ve been waiting for you for quite a long time. I’m only here because of you.’ ‘Why me?’ ‘You are destined for great things, master. Even far greater than your ancestors.’ Now, I do not like the sound of that.. Whenever that line comes out in movies or novels, there’s for sure so much chaos!! ‘Would a war commence?’ I sadly asked. Fenrir was silent for a moment, but he judged that it was better to tell me the truth. ‘War is indeed coming, master. It cannot be prevented, no matter what.’ ‘I just want peace

Katie’s POVA few weeks swiftly passed, and I’m actually having a blast staying here at my new home.The twins kept on tutoring me every day, and Vlad kept on trying to steal me every chance he got. Fenrir is still ordered by Vlad to keep watch, and sometimes we get to get together whenever there’s a new wave of the undead. Which is like today..“Fenrir!! Control your strength and aim only at the undead!” I yelled because we kept getting swamped with his pheromones. I’m fine with it, but the other vampires aren’t. Maybe this is why he is always mostly alone.Vlad frowned since he took in a huge whiff of Fenrir’s scent. “Uuggh. I want to vomit.”“Hey! Your bloodlust stinks too!!” Fenrir roared at him. I placed my hand in Vladimyr’s direction and tried to purify the air around him. Vlad was taken aback, since now he is smelling my scent. He turned his head to me and uttered, “Much better,” while winking at the same time. I looked away and blushed, to which he chuckled. “Beautiful.”Ev
