“I should have at least asked him what evidence he has against me. If he shows the evidence to the pure vampires, then all my efforts so far to become the vampire king would turn futile.” Uncle Ronald pulled at his hair in anguish. He tried moving further, but the thought of getting exposed to the vampire world was troubling him. He somehow managed to fly ahead when his gaze fell upon the vampire king’s minister, ‘Frank’Nice to meet you, Frank! Uncle Donald was greeted as he felt relieved to see his only friend in the vampire world. Nice to meet you too, Donald! “Where are you these days? Did our trick work or not?” Frank asked.“Speak softly, Frank! That Ben, the vampire king’s only half vampire son, is here these days.” Uncle Donald replied.Ah! I see! “That is the reason that has made you so busy these days, isn’t it?” Frank grinned at his own question.“It is nothing funny, Frank. That half-vampire is a tough nut to crack. I have tried all I could to grab the throne, but this Be
After dinner, Ben’s mother and I decided to sleep while Ben felt the craving to drink some blood as he felt the need to rejuvenate himself after a long, tiring day. It was for the first time that Ben was going to consume blood right in my presence with my consent and knowledge.I dreaded it and got a nauseating sensation just to think that he would consume blood. I wanted to stop him from doing that, as I condemned the idea of him consuming it, but there was very little that I could do to prevent him from doing that. He was a half vampire after all and not a human. I could not stop his craving, as he had been used to that habit since his childhood. He had his own world—totally different from humans. He preferred spending his nights doing such activities instead of sleeping, but he never forgot to provide me with the love and care that I deserved as his wife.I was annoyed for a while when he opened the refrigerator and reached out for a bottle of blood, but soon Iwas hypnotized as he
Ben produced another camera from his pocket. “Look at this, Frank. This camera has all the backups from the previous one. Do you feel that you have destroyed the evidence against you? It is still safely saved on this miniature camera of mine.” Ben said.Don’t worry, Ben! I will destroy that too within seconds. I will make sure that you have no evidence against me or Ronald.” Frank snatched the camera from Ben’s hand and again banged it on the floor. The camera was broken into pieces.“Ha.ha..ha.. Did you think that I would let you win? We have made a full-proof plan against the vampire king, and we are sure to grab his throne soon. Has he perished, or is he still alive?” Frank burst into laughter.“You will soon come to know everything, Frank. Have some patience. Don’t be under the illusion that you have destroyed all the evidence, because it is still safe with me, Frank. However, I will let you know about that some other time.” Ben produced a knife from his pocket and held it right o
I looked at Frank through the bars of the cage. His skin looked paler than that of Ben, and his eyes had a darker hue. His lips looked as though they were painted red, and his thin body structure made him look as if he lacked the strength to fight, but that wasn’t the case, as I could see that he was brimming with energy and self-confidence. He was wearing a black gown that was worn by people in the eighteenth century.“How old-fashioned these vampires are. They know hardly anything about the prevailing fashion and trends. He would look like an idiot if he happened to be in the human world.” I thought to myself, trying to hide the laughter that was trying to show on my face.Ben, on the other hand, was wearing a black shirt and black trousers, although he had a gown on top of them to distinguish him from humans. He was so smart and handsome. His chiseled chest, broad shoulders, toned muscles, six packs, and an attractive, charming face made him the heartthrob of millions of girls in t
I was scared out of my wits, and I tried to find solace in Ben’s arms. I turned out to be cuddling Ben. I placed my head on his chest gently and felt relieved as he stroked my head, trying to make me feel comfortable.“This is the reason I was saying that you should be returning to the city. This is not a place suitable for you to stay, Anne. You, as a human, cannot survive in this vampire world, as it is full of danger. Many of the vampires are evil over here. Only a few of them are really good at heart.” Ben tried to explain the situation to me. He seemed to be worried about our safety by now.“I know, Ben, that the vampire world is full of danger for me, but I trust you, and I believe that you will be there to rescue me from every danger that I am subject to.” I said I was trying to calm him down.“I will not be available always, Anne. If I have to fight these pure vampires, then I will get so busy that I will not be able to focus on your safety all the while.” Ben replied.“I unde
Ben looked all around. In fact, he jumped towards the window to see who was listening to our conversation. We had been discussing something really confidential, and somebody else eavesdropped on the same, which was detrimental to us. We could not let any of the pure vampires know about his secrets in a situation where they were at loggerheads with Ben. He was extremely worried and wanted to find out who that was.He went near the window and sniffed. As a half vampire, he could sense the smell and identify the presence of a pure vampire easily. “Why don’t I feel the smell of a vampire here? You know, Anne, all I can sense is the fragrance of a deodorant over here. Whoever reached here had applied deodorant on purpose just to mislead me.” Ben said.“Who else other than Uncle Ronald can try to mislead you, Ben? I am almost sure that it is his work.” I asserted.Within a split second, Ben was out of the window, following somebody who was not visible to me at least.“Ben! Wait! That can be
His cozy arms provided me with sufficient warmth, making me feel better, and I had almost forgotten my fear that he was a vampire and might turn out sucking my blood. I felt a little normal and recovered from the shock that I had received while handling the invisible vampire that had entered our room. I wondered from where I had gathered the courage at that moment. I felt delicate and timid in Ben’s presence, perhaps because I trusted him and had the faith that he would not let any danger hover around me.Ben finished his coffee and walked towards his mother. “Ben, I know that something mysterious is happening around, and I have the right to know that, don’t I?” She asked him.“It is nothing, Mom. Everything is normal so far.” Ben replied calmly, trying to hide the emotions of anger, fear, and restlessness swelling in his mind all together.“Ben! I know you very well. Don’t forget that I am your mother. I can notice even the slightest change in your facial expressions and make out wha
I felt lonely and depressed as I had to live apart from my love, my husband, who had arrived in my life as an angel, just to make me forget the struggles I had faced throughout my previous life. He had made my life worth living and given me a sense of security, care, and love that any girl in the world would desire from her life partner. But little did I expect that my life would turn out to be what it is today. I was lost in thought when my doctor friend Estella arrived in the room. She had to sprinkle some water over me to get me out of my thoughts. “It’s time for your injections, Anne. You will have to take them on time to recover from the depression and anxiety you are facing, my dear,” she tried to explain. ‘I am missing him a lot, Estella. I don’t think that I can live without him.” I said I soaked in despair. “Just chill, Anne! Everything will be alright!” Estella tried to console me as she held my hands to dress up my wrist. It was still hurting like a thousand devils. I gro
