Vampic Fall~

Onyx’s POV
Watching from the shrine mirror, I could clearly see all that had happened in the human world. How that bas***d had killed Deleon and the others sent to bring his head. Rubbing my beard, I try to connect the resemblance.

Hmm, Hannah made a fool of me. The king has another heir aside Hunter, not just one but two children, separated from birth, and the world is yet to know about the female. But I am smarter than the others, I figured it out.

Hannah played a very good trick, but this time, I will take revenge and destroy them all. Not one of Orpheus offspring will be left in Vampic fall. Picking up my staff, I went directly to the king’s chambers.

“My lord” I greeted on coming in sight with Hunter, who stood in front of his painting board, having a brush filled with paint on it. He didn’t respond at first, as he continued with the painting. His arrogant character has gotten into his head, making him feel superior to everyone.

But that isn’t possible when Onyx is here.

“Do you have a good news…Onyx” he asked, not turning to look at me. I let out a quick smirk

“Not good news your highness, neither is it a bad news. I am only here to remind you about the prisoners. You haven’t made any move towards them since they were brought in”

“I got better things to do. I have my plans Onyx” he replied, dropping the brush as he turned to look at me.

“Do you think Lazarus will be back?” his question made me frown

“I don’t know my lord…you banished him. And according to the trident’s rule, a victim banished can never come back except being called back by he who banished him”

“Ever heard of the mark of the beast, Dracula’s code? Do you think Lazarus is blessed with it?”

“That should be the last thing on your mind your highness..if Lazarus were to appear anywhere, then it will be the human kingdom. He will be with his mate by now”

“Hmmm…his mate….the Lily?” He asked, squinting. I nodded.

“And the prisoners? What do you think we should do with them, since their savior won’t be coming back” I asked, trying to change the topic

“What do you suggest Onyx”

“I think we should execute them all…they are of no use”
He chuckled sarcastically

“Nahh…..we ain’t gonna execute them..just increase their hard labour” he stated making me frown. Why won’t he just listen to me.

“Ok…my lord..” I replied and was about leaving when he spoke up again.
“Any word from Deleon yet?”

I paused, not saying a word. He was force to walk closer
“I believe you heard my question”

“He killed them all…Deleon with the others are dead” I managed to split out before he grabs my neck, pinning me to the wall. The power to the ring began to manifest, choking me, but my dark magic never disappoints. I used it as a shield to reduce the ring’s power

“That’s not possible…weren’t they fortified, you were in charge of that job Onyx…be competent for once” He yelled, his face turning red

“You are choking me…your highness” I cried out as he released me, making me cough a little. I cracked my neck, raising my head to glare at him

“It wasn’t my fault; I did as I was asked. I never disappoint”

“No Onyx…you have been a disappointment right from time..I don’t know why my dad banished you in the past years, but it would be because you lack competency.

You ain’t doing your job well, what are you a priest for? How dare that little rat defeat the best warriors in Vampic Fall, and killed them”

“He is a royal…what do you expect”

“Royal my foot, that bas***d doesn’t have a mother, I am yet to know where the late king had brought him from, claiming to be his son..arghh.

Even if he has my father’s blood running through his veins, and the mark of royalty, I won’t still accept him as my brother. He is a traitor in this kingdom, a bas***d..”

“He won’t be a threat to us…you have the throne to yourself, the trident, the ring of enchante. If he tries coming for the throne, he won’t be accepted by the people, and the trident will also reject him. You need to put your mind at rest, and let’s face what is necessary.”

“And what else is necessary to do, Lazarus has been defeated already, and I have his sister in my captivity”

“But his mate is more useful” I chipped in

“Tell me more….why do you think so? The lily’s power?”

“No just that my lord…I found out something else. The lily possesses the power of the seal. The seal of Enchante”

“You didn’t tell me about this a long time ago”

“You were so focused on dealing with Lazarus, you never listen to me. The book is in Lazarus possession, definitely the Lily will also know about it and where it is. If we get hold of her, we won’t only take her blood as the sacrifice but also the seal.”

“Then go get her”

“I can’t do this alone my lord, the human world is where she is, and Lazarus might be there also. We won’t just be facing the both of them; we will also be facing D’Arcy, because he would be after you for sending some warriors to ki*ll him.”

“If we get the seal, then the witches and other mystic creatures will have no choice than to bow in reference of the vampires. Not just vampires, but Vampic Fall. We will have strength, might and power to rule for more than a million years, as they all will succumb to our wish” I explained, with a broad smile, satisfied with the look on his face.

This is what I want to see in him; greediness will lead to his downfall. I will make sure I entice him with the things that will bring him down from the throne.

“If we are to face Lazarus again, then his sister will be the exchange for his mate” he muttered after thinking for a while

“Good idea…my lord”

D’Arcy’s POV
“Hannah???” Drusilla muttered as the old woman smiled. I still don’t know what is going on. Do they know each other from somewhere? I thought. But my main focus was on Emerald who was still sleeping peacefully. I noticed her eyes moved, just after the witch had called the old woman’s name.

“I think she is waking up” I stated, cutting in as the tension reduced. We all watched as Emerald fluttered her eyes open, as her chest moved up and down, while she breathe heavily. She was yet to see us, as she still stares above her with a slight frown.

She turned her head towards our direction and squinted, more like she was trying to process who we are. And when her eyes caught that of mine, she flinched, sitting up on the bed in fear. She shifted backward folding her arms together.

“Is she scared of something?” The old woman asked, trying to touch her but she shifted backward the more

“Don’t touch me” She snapped, looking fearfully at the woman as she returned her gaze on me. I went closer to the bed and squatted

“Hey babe….you don’t need to be scared…you are safe…” I stretch my hands to touch her but she pushed it off

“Don’t touch me…don’t f**king touch me…arghh, get him away from me…take him away” She yelled, breaking into tears. I felt my heart break into pieces as I draw back my hand.

“Emer…”

“Don’t call my name….i don’t wanna see you” She turned to look at the other side. This time, the witch went towards her. She allowed her to hold her, as she patted her hair

“Hey, you need to be calm okay, no one is here to hurt you….you are safe…” The witch, who I now know to be Drusilla by name noted, as Emerald nodded, hugging her tightly

“Please take me away from here…I wanna go home…please” She begged Drusilla while I simply watch in shock. Drusilla gave me a look and sighed, I know what is going on in her mind. I shook my head side way and went out of the room, but I could still hear their conversation, with my high hearing skills.

“Is he gone yet?” I heard Emerald say

“I don’t think so…but he went outside, you can release me now” Drusilla had reply, and I think Emerald released the hug, because there was silence for a while before she spoke again. She began to sob

“I don’t know him anymore” She cried out

“I thought he is your mate…he can’t hurt you, you know…”

“I don’t even know about this mate stuff…I don’t get it…”

“Then who are you to him”

“I’m his girlfriend…but now I don’t know who I am to him anymore…I really wanna leave here..i wanna go back home..” She rushed her words

I stood outside still listening with folded arms. I pushed my fingers into my hair in frustration, scoffing

“I think you need to hear him out…he might have a lot to tell you about”

“No..no…I can’ t face him anymore..he looked really scary last night…and..and…injured some people”
I heard Drusilla chuckled.

Did she just say that I injured some people, damn, she was about getting raped by Gary and I gave him a taste of what he deserved, gosh…humans…argh. How I wish she could feel the pain in my heart right now..it hurt so much, knowing that your mate is sacred of you, and don’t wanna see you.

I kicked the stone in front of me with anger, walking down the slop down to the valley where a large river is. I settle down on a large stone watching the water flow

I hope she calms down and give me a chance to talk to her.

Emerald’s POV
“No..no…I can’ t face him anymore..he looked really scary last night…and..and…injured some people” I muttered, replying the young woman in the room, who I recognized to be the one who came to save me from the hands of that dreaded blood sucker.

The other woman in the room simply watch us talk, not contributing to the matter. I don’t know who she is, and why she looks a bit scary with a large scar on her face. Any time my eyes held contact with her, she reminds me of the witch I do see in those Disney series. Gosh, bad thinking

“But you need to face your fears sometimes. The young lad there rescued the both of us last night. He is your mat…boyfriend, he won’t hurt you. Trust me, you just have to give him a listening ear. He might have something important to tell you…okay…”

I nodded, biting my lips. I still don’t want to get the fact that he is not human, yes, we have been taught history of mystic creatures in school, and how they mingle among humans. He might be just one thing, a wizard or a vampire.

“Ok…I..will..listen to him..but can I get something to eat first…I’m starving” I stated as the young woman smiled, and turned to look at the other woman.

“Finally they recognize my presence in the room” the old woman exclaimed, raising her hands funnily in the air. The young woman chuckled

“Sorry about that Hannah, do you have some human foods here…” She asked. I frown

Ain’t they humans too? I thought as my heart began to beat heavily

“Ouch..humans food…ok..i think I got some fruits here…she can have this” She brought out a red apple from her pot, and it suddenly reminded me of snow white and her wicked witch stepmother. I mean, this was the same apple given to snow white, and this woman looked like her stepmother in a witch form.

Is the Disney scene repeating itself in reality, am I being snow white now. I shiver at the thought but shrug it off when my stomach rumbled. I think the young woman noticed my hesitance in collecting the apple. She took it and smiled

“The apple is free from poison dear…she wouldn’t hurt you…here have it” She stated. I popped out my eyes. Did she just read my mind or what?

“Wait, she thought I was gonna poison her” The old woman exclaimed

“No Hannah…she is just being careful” She shushed her off

“Hey you lady…my name is Drusilla…” She muttered with a warm smile. It reminded me of my mum

“I’m Emerald” I replied, biting into the apple, still thinking of what Dave has to tell me. But that’s not even my problem, how am I gonna take it in?

“You will need to try out this if you ain’t comfortable in that” Hannah stated, motioning to Emerald’s torn clothes, which she covered with D’Arcy’s jacket.

Hannah had suggested that she wear one of her old clothes which will fit into her, and she sluggishly agreed. It fitted her well. Though it wasn’t really her size but it’s better than the torn clothes

“Thanks” Emerald muttered, as Drusilla patted her hair. They all have had some fruits which Hannah had offered, and they kept some for D’Arcy.

“You can go meet him, and hand this fruit over to him. He had a long night yesterday, his flesh will be starving by now” Drusilla suggested, handling a small basket containing few fruits to her.

“He is by the river” She added

Emerald nodded and left, after heaving a loud sigh. Just then, Drusilla faced Hannah with a serious look and folded arms.

“I think there is a lot for us to talk about while the lad and lass are away. Why did you leave Vampic fall, what are you doing in the human world?” Drusilla asked, as Hannah pouted sadly. She found her way to the little bed which she sat on before looking up to Drusilla with eyes of guilt.

“I’m sorry Drusilla..but there are a lot of secrets which will make you hate me if I say them out. But I don’t have a choice anymore, I have waited a long time for the day to come when I will relay all these to you” She replied. Drusilla squinted, not getting her point.

She went towards her and sat on the bed, ready to download all that Hannah has to say.

Back at the Hospital~

Rose ran towards Audrey before she was being pulled away and squatted before her

“Audrey..oh my gawd..i’m sorry about what happened. Do you…by any means see Emerald last night…huh” Rose rushed her words; Audrey busted into tears.

The woman pushing the wheel tried leaving with her when she saw her emotional breakdown, but Audrey asked her to wait as she cleaned off her tears.

“I…I could remember just little. Billie was cut open right in front of me, she is dead….and..and Crystal…she was supposed to be with Dave according to our plans, but she is now in coma..i think.” She gulped in.

Rose couldn’t process all she was talking about, what plan…why will Dave be with Crystal instead of Emerald. What really happen at the club house? But she wasn’t bothered about that, she wants to know what had happened to the duo

“I can’t find Emerald and Dave…did you know if they were also at the scene…where they…..killed” She managed to say the last word, but Audrey hurriedly shook her head.

“They left… I saw them…I heard one of the beast calling him prince…he held Emerald..and..and they went after them…it was so sudden…happened like a flash.

He is a beast…a beast…” She screamed, busting into tears as her mother pulled her away, her wails still echoes in the hallway. They left Rose confused as she stared at their exiting figure.

Daniel came closer to her, he heard what Audrey had said, but didn’t understand
“What did she say?” he asked

“I also don’t understand…I think she is trying to say that the vampires were after Dave..and he left with Emerald…but how…it doesn’t make sense. She seems to be losing her mind” Rose replied him. He sighed ruffling his hair.

He had tried to comfort himself and face his fears

“Let’s check out the morgue first…If they ain’t there…then we will be rest assured that they left the scene before the attack.” He muttered, she nodded and tapped his shoulder in a comforting way.

He nodded

“Come on…let’s go”
