  “Sorry I’m late.” I apologized as I kissed Elijah’s cheek before he held my hands.“It’s alright. Lea doesn’t seem to like me very much that was why she held you prisoner.” Elijah said as I heaved.“You have no idea but that’s why I love her. She’s the only person who has never left my side even up till this day. Lea’s my only stability in my long life.” I explained as a soft smile pasted on my lips.Elijah frankly looked jealous but didn’t complain as he nodded before I held his hand.“But there’s no one who has made me interested in them for more than a day and still be a sight for pretty eyes.” I said as I smoldered his cheeks before I kissed the soft flesh.Elijah carried me in his arms as I shrieked before I wrapped my arms around his neck not caring about the humans that were staring at us and whispering at how great we looked together or ho

  Lea leaned on the gate as she stared at me in disbelief. I was just happy she wasn’t casting any spell on me to make me obedient but her glare was so much like a mother who couldn’t wait to kill her only daughter’s boyfriend.“Stop staring like that, you are going to scare the pup with those.” I said as I elbowed her elbow.“Maybe I want that.” Lea said as I smiled before I wrapped my hand around her neck.I kissed her cheeks and snuggled with her neck as she made a terrible attempt at being angry. She laughed as I laughed before she pushed my head away.“Am I interrupting something ladies?” Elijah asked with a smile on his face.“Nothing at all.” I replied as Lea stared at him in disbelief.“You didn’t say he was handsome apart from being a

  The ride home was quiet but it was a comfortable silence as Elijah pulled back his bike in front of my house and I came down from the bike and handed him the helmet he insisted I wear since it was daytime.“I guess this is goodbye for now.” Elijah said as I nodded.“You can come over when you want a real treat.” I said as I flashed my fangs before he chuckled.“I never knew how full I could ever be in my life.” Elijah said as he patted his stomach as I laughed.“Call me when you get home.” I insisted as I collected my jacket and purse.I pulled my hair behind my hair before I pecked Elijah’s cheek and quickly walked to my house before I turned back to a dumbfounded Elijah who was smiling like he was assuring everything that happened was real before he pulled down his helmet and drove off.

  “Are we there yet?” I asked Elijah as he chuckled.“No yet. We will be very soon.” He said as he held the blindfold tightly to my eyes so I wouldn’t even have a sneak peek to where we were going.I trusted him to be somewhere beautiful as the air I breathed was much clearer and fresher than the stuffy five star restaurant that Klaus took me to have dinner. He succeeded in spoiling my mood and marking that restaurant bad for dinner plans in the aftermath.“Be careful.” Elijah said as he helped me climb a few steps down.“This better be good Elijah or I’m taking your tail as a forgiveness offering.” I said as he laughed.“Of course but I’m a million percent sure you’ll love it.” He said as I smiled before it fell.“Okay, I trust yo

  I smiled late in the night as I felt the cool breeze touching my skin in this crowded city. Everyone was bustling and hustling, car horns honking and people talking about what they would do when they get home or their night shift activities.I felt whole and complete, filled with a joy I couldn't explain as I thought of that werewolf and his name."Elijah." The name felt so sweet leaving my lips as I hummed.Something about him was different from all the other men I have ever knew. His name felt dainty, sweet in my head like the time I had gone for Antonio Vivaldi four seasons concert in the eighteenth century.Then music had value and taste was exquisite not now everything was a clashing symbol but then again, blood was spilled without shame."Eliza."I paused in my steps when I heard that name from a ghastly voice.I turned around to search out where that voice was coming from but found no source as my heart beat sped up a

  I took bold confident steps into the living room as Lea chased my tail with anticipated steps.I grabbed a bottle of blood wine and poured into a cup before I hugged it down and poured once more for myself as Lea grabbed the bottle."You are not avoiding the subject." Lea said as I sighed and dropped the glass cup heavily."I am not avoiding the subject. I just want to drink it away so when I'm sober, seeing Klaus will be nothing but a dream." I replied as Lea sighed."So about Klaus' proposal, are you considering marrying him even if it was true?" Leave asked as I ran my hand through my hair."Twenty seven years Klaus left me standing at the altarbecause he was supposedly in hell and he waltz back into my life like a snake and you expect me to say yes." I laughed as Lea folded her arms."What if Klaus is telling the truth and you will die even though yo
