Clara
I won't deny the fact that my heart is hammering in chest right now. I have got Damien by my side and he is holding my hand. I might be nervous but I am not scared. I want to be confident while doing this. Damien even told me that he wouldn't mind if I didn't go with him because he doesn't want me to go through this emotional rollercoaster.
Damien cares so much about my health and now that I am pregnant, he really doesn't want me to go through anything that will stress me. That's why he offered that I stay home with the others so that he could handle this on his own but I refused to stay behind, not because I want to be stubborn but I want us to stand together while facing this situation. I am not going to just stay home waiting for Damien to do this for us on his own.
Jason comes out the house on check on what's going on. He looks really shocked to see Damien and me. I don't what has shocked him the most. Whether the fact that no one was expecting u
ONE YEAR LATER DAMIEN Clara has been busy preparing baby Tristan for the morning. It is a cold day outside and she has dressed him in the warmest baby clothes in his closet. I haven't said anything about them being too hot for him, but what can I say? She is the mother so she knows what is best for Tristan. After dressing him up, she carries him to me and places him in my arms. Tristan has his moments. Sometimes he is very excited to play with daddy, and sometimes he is very furious to see me and he won't let me carry him. I guess today is my lucky day! Tristan gives me a cute big smile when I hold him in my arms. I can't help the grin that reflects on my face when I realize that I have timed one of his good moods. Mommy looks so tired. Tristan has been up half of the night giving her a hard time. I was awake all night and so was everyone else in the house but he didn't want anyone to get his fingers on him except his mommy. Now he wants
Clara The mall is so crowded today that I start wondering if there is a special discount sale going on. I squeeze my way through the overly excited customers and go to the food section. Am I missing out on something here? It's not that I am always informed about what is happening in this area or Pack but I am just wondering... I grab the groceries that I have come in here for and head to the reception to get them packaged. There is quite a queue there. I am still wondering why there are so many people doing shopping tonight. I stand in line and wait for those who arrived before me to be taken care of, like a good girl. I mentally roll my eyes at my thoughts. Sure I can be a good girl if I want to but I just don't like acting dumb and all nice. I don't want people to step on my head. I always keep my head up. Most people in my Pack think I am proud because I am the Alpha's daughter, but I don't give a damn what whoever thinks of me. Later, I get my turn to be attended to. I pay for
Damien I thought I was running wild when something started smelling wonderful in this damn alley, but when I found this girl, I don't know what to think anymore. Now she has turned her back to me and she is walking away! What have I said? She looked very hurt before she walked away. "Wait!" I call out and she stops but does not look back. I don't know why but I feel like I can't just let her walk away like that. I dash towards her and stop behind her. She called me her mate. I know werewolves get mates at a certain point of their lives whom they are supposed to live with for the rest of their lives, but I am not a werewolf. A few werewolves get human mates, but I am a vampire. I have never heard of a werewolf being mated to a vampire. "I am sorry if I said something wrong," I tell her while running my hands through my hair. "No, it's okay. I mistook you for someone you aren't," she replies without turning to look at me. Her words are calm yet heavy with emotion. Why do they ma
Clara Emily still can't get over the fact that I just met my mate. The look that she is giving me right now is showing me that she is still in shock. "And you let him go just like that?" she asks me with utter disbelief in her voice. "Come on. I just met him," I reply, but in reality, I wish I had followed him to wherever he was going. "Why is that an excuse? He is your mate so it doesn't matter if you met right now or years ago," she says. "If he is my mate, then we will have to meet again, eventually," I tell her with a hopeful smile. I hope the moment comes soon. I can still feel his cold but smooth hand caressing my cheek. I want to feel that again. I haven't told Emily that he is a vampire, or else she will freak out. We all know how father hates vampires. Vampires and werewolves have never been on good terms. The werewolves haunted the vampires and vice versa. Since they are all immortal, the conflicts went on forever. I know very well how much father has always wished t
Damien I had to come after her. I just couldn't help it. I close my eyes and relish the feeling of having her in my embrace. It is just heavenly. I can't explain exactly what I feel like, especially knowing that she has nothing on her body under that coat. "Why are you here?" she asks me. "I believe it is the same reason why you are here," I reply with a smile and she blushes. She looks so gorgeous under the moonlight. "How did you find me?" she asks. "I am a vampire," I reply with a shrug and she chuckles lightly. Oh, that is such a beautiful sound. "It is very late. You should be asleep," I tell her while tracing my fingers through her hair, trailing them down her cheeks. "I don't feel like it," she answers. Her big brown eyes bore through mine as if she is seeing everything beyond my face. She raises her hand and places it on my cheek. It is so soft, and warm. It makes my long-dead skin come to life. "And you, why aren't you asleep?" she inquires me. "I am a Vampire," I
Clara This is what I thought of vampires before I entered this house: cold, loners, ruthless, and many other terrible things but whoa! These guys are sweeter than my own family back in the pack. There is this hunk who is drunk but he is so funny. When I entered this house, I didn't know what to expect. In the pack house back home, there are always many people walking around in and out. There are restricted areas though. This family seems very close, closer than our pack. I can't believe I am still awake at this hour. I wonder what time it is. I look around the walls hoping for a wall clock to be hanging there, but I don't find any. I need to find the guy, I don't even know his name yet! I have been offered some liquor but I turned down the offer. I want to be sober on my first stay here. I have to be careful especially since I am only wearing this coat with nothing inside. I get up from the couch that I have been sitting on and walk around the house to look for my mate. I wonder
Damien Good thing Amber hadn't gone too far in her act and Clara doesn't look as angry as I expected she would be. I hope Amber is now able to understand what I have been able to explain to her all this time. I don't want her to be an obstacle between Clara and me. "You must be tired. Let's go inside and I will get you somewhere to sleep," I tell her but she doesn't reply. She must be exhausted. I carry her off the ground into my arms. She just leans in closer to my chest and closes her eyes. I don't think twice before I enter the house and take her directly to my bedroom. I know there are many spare bedrooms in the house, but I prefer that she is here. I hope she doesn't mind resting in my room. I place her gently on the bed and she immediately opens her eyes. She gives me a crooked smile which makes her so adorable and kissable. Gosh, Give the girl a break! You'll scare her away, my subconscious warns me. "This is your bedroom, right?" she asks me with a hint of amusement clea
Clara I wake up with a lazy yawn and close my eyes again for a moment. Wait a minute... I try to remember where I am and what exactly I am doing here. A lot of things happened last night. Oh, I found my mate. A smile spreads across my face knowing that I finally found him and I slept in his bed, though nothing serious happened between us. I feel very satisfied within me. I spread my arms across the bed looking for him. I open my eyes and realize that he is not in bed. He must have gotten up already. Did he even sleep? He must have fled after I fell asleep. Through the big glass window, bright light gushes into the room. I can tell that it is very late for someone to get out of bed at this time. I sit up and start wondering where I should begin. This is the first time I have slept away from home without someone I know having escorted me. I am a grown woman now. I should be able to take care of myself. Where should I begin? I don't even have my clothes! I left my clothes back hom
