The Wolf Among Us.

Chapter 21: Star Seeker.

UNKNOWN POV I:

"Mater!", the vampire hissed. He fell on his face that was void of emotion "What is your reason for appearing? Speak!" The vampire shuddered and spoke up: "We failed to kill the boy. That wretched peculiar has conspired with him!" The Queen laughter caused the creature to shudder again. 

She held his face up to hers and she kissed him. What was soft and gentle became a heated kiss. It was obvious that her intention was to drain him. A few seconds later, the servant was a decaying husk. The vile lady licked her lips. "Demobilis! entrē faccum!", She cried out. 

In the place of the incompetent wart was a bonafide warrior who was scorned by the light so took shelter in the darkness. "My henchman. Word has reached us from our shadows in the Elysium that there would be a quest. Slay them all; leave none unharmed.

She drew his head closer to her and pecked his pale lips. "Bring honor back to your king. But bring the abomination's head back to your queen. Departos!" In a wisp of smoke, the man disappeared. The Queen was very pleased with herself. 

"I cannot let my father's son live. I must kill that filth!" She sipped the thick, scarlet liquid from her chalice. "I must be the last surviving successor of Vladimir. And then the Elysium will fall."

UNKNOWN POV II:

As his chest rose and fell, the young lady could not help but smile. He was so calm in his sleep. He was smart and too good for a world like this. He was naive but also very responsible.

She knew that he had no idea that he was mateless. The vampirism in his blood was just too strong, strong enough to suppress some parts of his wolf's nature. She did not want to reveal this to him or else it would have broken him. 

No wonder the other girl had lied to him. Who would throw away or abandon such a gem? She knew he had gone through a lot but when she first saw him, he had already stolen her heart. 

She was going to follow him everywhere. Even if it meant becoming his shadow. Sleep was now calling out to her;she unknowingly laid down on his bed and snuggled close to him. Whether he realised it now or not, she was his. And he was hers. 

Back to Haydens POV:)

The constant growling and rumbling of my stomach had finally succeeded in waking me up. My vampire side was starting to show itself; I could already feel my irises turning crimson. I really needed to snack on some blood right now.

"I suggest you pry this girl's hands away from your side before your patience gets the better of you." It was only then I realized that a pair of hands were draped across my waist. What the.. Lily was snuggled up in my bed. My bed. How the gods did she get here?

There was no time for questions;I had to take a snack. I pried her two hands off only to have her grip my waist tightly. My cheeks heated up because of her actions. What was up with her?

"Um, Lily, could you let me go? I really need a drink so I suggest you let me go now." Her eyes slowly opened. "Hayden? What the heck are you doing in my bed?", she asked groggily. I chuckled lightly and answered, "I should be the one to ask that question."
