ETERNAL SHADOWS ~~ CASTLE
He stared at her for a while and then he turned to the door. She turned too standing up.
In a second, he was standing there with his hands behind his back as he awaited the knock of the person.
The knock came and she blinked, she didn't expect to hear the person from that far.
"You must be wondering why you're able to hear really far things unlike the other werewolves right?!" Gorya asked and she turned to the maid.
"Well...." She stopped speaking and squatted immediately.
The silver knife penetrated into the wall behind her and she blinked before facing forward.
Lucian already opened the door and a female vampire was standing there glaring hard at her.
"What are you doing?" Lucian asked her and the lady looked at him.
"What is a werewolf doing here? And you are well aware who she is right?!!" The lady snapped at him.
"Yes I know! I want to handle it!" He said and she scoffed before speeding to Ava.
Ava stood up immediately and punched the lady making her stagger back.
She brought out another silver knife and tried stabbing her but Ava eyes glowed and she punched her hard on the stomach before doing a back flip three times.
She stopped when she reached the wall and she took the silver knife there before turning. She threw it at the lady and she dodged.
"What do you want?!!" Ava asked.
"Werewolves aren't allowed in Garberville!!!" She said.
"Rina!!" Lucian called and she looked at him.
"Stop it!" He said and she ignored facing Ava.
She ran towards her and tried stabbing her. Ava tried catching her hand but she sped to her back and stabbed her.
'Again!!' Her mind roared and she frowned deeply.
Rina removed the knife from her and she turned using her claw to slash her hard.
She fell to the ground and she touched her face that hurt so much.
"Why do y'all like stabbing me huh?!!!!" She roared, her voice sounding different.
Gorya smiled again.
Rina stood up shocked as she stared at the wound on Ava's back healing.
"How is that..." She couldn't finish her statement when she realized Ava was standing in front of her.
She looked straight into those golden eyes and she gulped...
'Kill her!!!!' Her subconscious mind yelled and she smiled before stepping back closing her eyes.
"Don't come close to me again! I'm hungry right now and I need food. Unless you aren't with that, don't come near me!" Ava said and Rina breath out and Ava smiled before starting to go upstairs.
"Where are you going?" Rina asked and Ava shot her a hard glare.
"Can I go up?" She asked Lucian.
"No!"
"I'm going up anyways!" Ava said and ran upstairs.
"What the fuck is she doing here Lucian?!!!!" Rina half yelled and Lucian sped to her holding her neck.
"Just because you're my friend, that's what's stopping me from ending you right now!! I said I have my reasons, got that?!!!" He yelled and she nodded.
He let go off her and she fell coughing loudly.
"Your mother is dying tomorrow Lucian. Who will you bring to her as your bride?" Rina asked.
Secretly, she hoped he'd bring her.
"I don't know! When I decide, you'll see me at her house tomorrow. Now, excuse me!" He said and she sighed before speeding out of the house.
The guards closed the door and he looked at Gorya.
"Get her the fried chicken and wine!" He said and sped upstairs.
Gorya smiled before speeding out of the house.
~~
He walked into the room and met her standing at the terrace.
He looked at her for a while and turned to leave when he heard a loud scream making him turn.
"Arghhhhh!!!!!!!!"
"Why did I to be so stupid?!!!!"
"Why did I have to leave my clan for a stupid feeling called love?!!!!!!"
"I'm so stupid believing a human!!!!"
"Arghhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!"
"Why did that devil bring me into this castle?!!! I don't like it here.....I want to go home!!!!!!!"
She screamed jumping, her hair flowing with the wind.
She calmed down and breathe out.
"He's so scary and mean, I wonder the girl who'd get married to him!" She muttered and scoffed.
"Buh yunno Lucian ain't that bad!" Her subconscious mind said.
"What are you saying?! He plans on killing me and I have to be really careful. That's not a nice person yunno!"
"Normally, I won't have kept you alive!" Lucian said and she froze before turning slowly.
She smiled awkwardly.
"Did you hear everything I said?" She asked.
"Loud and clear!" He said with a smirk.
"And now I know the perfect punishment for you!" He said and her eyes widened.
"Huh?!!"
He smirked before speeding out of the room.
"Hey wait up!!" She yelled running out of the room going downstairs.
"Urghhh!!! I forgot how long the stairs are!" She said and jumped down.
She didn't see him so she ran out of the house.
"Where's Lucian?!" She asked the guards.
"The audacity of you calling our master by his name!"
"Is that his name or not?!" She asked.
"It is but...."
"But nothing! I call him whatever and you guys can't do anything. Now where is he?" She asked and a dart flew to her neck.
She pulled it out and turned, she sensed another three coming from different directions and she dodged them.
Her eyes were turning dizzy and before she knew it, she fell to the ground loosing consciousness.
NEXT DAY ~~ GARBERVILLE ~~ LUCIAN'S MANSION
Ava was sleeping peacefully in Lucian's arms as he brought her into his mansion.
He walked past the guards and maids as he sped upstairs entering his mum's room.
His mum was laying peacefully on the bed. Eyes closed and breathing slow.
Normally a vampire shouldn't age that quickly but her case was different. She did something when she was young and it affected her greatly.
Sensing Lucian's presence, she opened her eyes and looked at his direction.
"Is that your soon to be wife?" She asked smiling widely.
He inhaled before nodding.
Ava's eyes opened slowly and she looked at the man carrying her then she looked around.
"Where am I?"
"My second mansion!"
"How long was i out?" She asked.
"A day!" He said and she got down from him forcefully.
"I'mma kill the person who threw darts at me!" She said.
"I ordered a vampire to do it!" He said and she shot him a hard glare.
"Why would you do that huh?!!!" She yelled.
A loud laughter was heard and Ava turned to where the laughter came from. She blinked when she saw a woman laying on the bed.
Lucian's eyes widened.
His mother hasn't laughed like this since she fell ill. He slowly smiled.
"Urm who is she?" Ava whispered to Lucian.
"My mother!"
"What am I doing here huh?" She asked and then she realized something.
"No fucking way!!!" She yelled and started running out of the room but Lucian sped to her front holding her still by the shoulder.
He took them out of the room and put of the mansion. They were in the forest and she blinked.
"You're really fast!" She muttered.
"You will marry me!" He said and she threw his hands off.
"Hell no!!! It's already a taboo for me living in your castle, now I'll get married to you....hell no!!!" She yelled.
He inhaled hard.
"You're paying me back for when I saved you back then!"
"I never asked you to help me Lucian!" She said.
"But had it been for me, you'd be long dead. Your dad and mom would be mourning your death right now!" He said.
"You think they'd care?" She asked.
"If your dad didn't, he wouldn't have sent a werewolf to keep tabs on you!" He said and her eyes widened.
"Really?!" She asked and thought for a while.
"Okay fine! I'll agree!" She said and he stood straight with a smirk.
"I have a condition tho!"
"What is it?" He asked.
"I want to be allowed to explore and to also visit my clan!"
"Done!" He said and she smiled.
He held her hand and sped them back to his mansion and into his mother's room.
His guard brought a document and handed it to them.
Ava signed the document same as Lucian meaning their legally married in the vampire world.
A pin was given to Ava and she pressed it into her thumb making a little blood come out. She placed it on the document and Lucian did same.
"No going back after this master! I hope you don't regret it!" The guard said and sped off.
"Good morning ma'am!" Ava said with a smile.
"You've got a good wife Lucian! Treat her well!" His mum said to him and he scoffed.
"And you werewolf, the fact that my son chose you out of other vampire females should make you know that if you by any chance betray him in any way possible, I will kill you myself!" She said and Ava's eyes widened.
"Huh?!"
"You think it's not possible when am gone right?"
"No not that. I won't betray him. You should be telling him that!" Ava said glaring at Lucian.
"You both shouldn't betray each other. You're going to be one soon so treat each other right!" She said and Ava groaned inwardly.
"Both of you, come here" she said and they walked to her bed squatting beside it.
She opened her palm.
"Interlock your fingers and place it on my palm!" She said and Ava looked at Lucian.
He held her hand and then put it on his mum's palm.
"I give you both my blessings!" She said and looked at Lucian.
"I love you son. Try to be happy!" She said and he smiled.
"I love you too!" He said and that's it, her eyes closed.
He let go off her hands immediately speeding off.
She looked at his mum and wondered why she died. Then she realized something, her heart was actually beating.
"But she was a vampire!" She muttered and then the door opened and the guards came and took her going to bury her in one of Lucian's favourite gardens.
She stood and walked out of the room. She stopped when she heard yelling from downstairs.
"How could you marry a werewolf Lucian?!!!! How could you?!!!!!" She yelled at him and he kept a straight face.
"I had no choice!!"
"You did. You would have chosen me but instead you got married to a stupid werewolf you just met!!!" She snapped and then Ava jumped down doing a flip with her hair.
The two turned to her and she stood walking to Rina.
"You have no right to yell at my husband!" Ava said and Rina's eyes widened.
Lucian's face was unreadable.
"You haven't even gotten married to him yet and you're calling him your husband, how disgusting!" Rina said rolling her eyes at her.
"As long as in his mother's eyes, I'm her son's love them I'm his wife. If you want to be angry about it, go do it outside!" She said and Rina moved closer to her, her eyes turning red.
"Don't get me angry!"
"Same as you Rina!" Ava said with a smirk he'd eyes glowing golden.
'Those eyes!!!' Rina thought before speeding away.
Ava's eyes returned back to normal and she turned to Lucian.
He held her hand and sped out of there going back to his castle.
He let go of her hand and went to his study room.
"And then the only family he has is gone!" Gorya whispered from the kitchen knowingly.
Ava heard that and she bit her lips before going upstairs to the study room.
She knocked on the door and got no reply.
"Can I come in?"
"No!"
"Okay thanks!" She said and pushed the door open coming in.
"I said no. Why did you come in?!" He asked not taking his eyes off a book he was reading.
In a second, he read up to 50 pages and she sighed coming to him. She took the book from him and he looked at her.
"How did I do at your mansion with Rina?!" She asked.
"Give me my book!"
"How did I do? Was I good or bad?!" She asked smiling.
"Give me my book!" He said and she rolled her eyes.
"I did great right?!" She asked and he stood.
She stood up running towards the door but he appeared in front of her and she diverted going to sit on his chair.
She crossed her legs and looked at him.
"My condolences!" She said and he sped to her front leaning towards her. He rested his palms on the arms of the chair looking into her eyes.
"I don't give a damn about her death meaning I don't need your sympathy!"
"You're lying!" She said with a smirk.
"Leave!" He said standing up straight.
"No! You didn't give me the chicken and wine yesterday!!!!" She yelled and he glared at her.
"It's down..." He didn't complete what he was saying when she ran out of the room heading downstairs.
"What kind of trouble did I put myself into?!" He asked himself and then he realized she took the book with her.
"Ava!!!!!!" He yelled speeding downstairs.
REDWOOD FOREST ~~ CALIFORNIA
Lucas was worried moving up and down in the room.
Luciana came in and he looked at her.
"Honey, what happened?!" Luciana asked looking at Lucas worried face.
"I had a dream! Ava would get married to a powerful enemy!" He said and she blinked.
"The Lord of vampires right?" She asked and he nodded.
"My daughter can handle herself!" She assured him but she shook her head negatively.
"No she can't. He's going to kill her Luciana. He's going to kill her the moment he gets the opportunity but before he does that, he'll get info on where we are and then he'll come for us after ending her!" He said and Luciana's eyes widened.
"What?!!!!!!!" She screamed.
