Narrator.   David roamed around the woods. He had to learn to survive in the wilderness. It was a good thing that he had his lycan with him. Hunting and looking for food was not the main problem. It was hiding from any lurking dangers. He was in the vampire’s territory, and that means he could be in danger. He must hide from them carefully. He ate what he hunted, drank and washed himself from a creek he found. But where does he sleep when night falls?    His eyes darted from the rich forest floor to the canopied branches. “I guess it is best that I sleep in a tree.” He muttered. Finn also agreed. He would be safer high up on a branch than on the ground. He walked around to find a suitable tree.    “The sun is about to set dude, hurry.” Finn huffed in his mind. “ I’m trying.” David replied. Finn rolled his eyes.  “This is the forest. And these are just trees. None of them will be like those

Narrator David couldn’t wait for evening to arrive. He had never felt so eager to meet someone before. He sat on the shore as he counted the ripples of water caressing the shore. He took a pebble and threw it into the water, making more ripples in the calm water of the creek. He smiled at it. The water was calm but it held many secrets. It definitely led to a larger water body where more dangers and treasures were hidden, just like his life. He may look calm but he had to prepare for something big. He was going to fight back. At least he had to find out who was the real one behind his grandma’s death. And whoever that was, will have to pay for what he had done.  “David.” Carol’s voice came from behind. David stood up from his spot and faced the young vampire princess. He smiled as he walked towards her, who was waiting for him in the shade.  “Hey.” He greeted her   “Hi.” She said and looked around. She frowned as she noticed the cl

Carol couldn’t sleep. She tossed and turned on her bed thinking about how she would break the news to David. A constant grin was pasted on her face. She sure was exhilarated. It took a long time for her to get too tired to stay awake and finally her eyelids grew too heavy to stay open. David on the other hand hunted a deer to satisfy his hunger and this time, he dug a deep hole in the ground and buried the left outs. What Carol had told him had taught him a lesson. He should have cleaned up after himself in the first place. He washed himself and got ready the best he could for Carol to come and meet him. He used some herbs and flowers he found in the wilderness, to make himself smell good. Finn kept snickering in his mind, teasing him about his efforts to look good for carol. “Oh shut up Finn. What is so wrong in wanting to l

Carol pov  The maid brought us food and blood for me. He ate the fruits and burgers while I drank my blood along with the food. I laughed when he cringed at the sight of blood.  “Well, we are vampires, we can’t help it.” I told him.  “Do you really drink blood from humans?” he asked. “Actually, we do. Human blood, animal blood. And in the earlier times, our ancestors took blood slaves from the humans.” I told him about a bit of our history as I sipped on my blood. “But that is completely prohibited now. We are no longer allowed to kill when we drink blood. We compel humans and animals before we feed and we feed responsibly. I personally prefer animal blood.” I told him. “It is a lot more healthy. Humans always eat all those junks. I ho

David pov. Watching them drink blood like juice was nauseating. I tried to ignore them and concentrate on the food in front of me. Her cousins were nice and friendly. There was one of them who was training to become a war general. The younger two were still in school which meant they will have to leave for school after the training.  “So David. Are you going to learn kickass?” Evan, the older cousin asked.  “I guess.” I replied. “Dad used to train me before he.....”  “Died?” he asked. I smiled and nodded.  “Train you?” he inquired, frowning at me. I bit my lips. I should be careful with my words. Humans don’t normally train like that, do they? “His dad most probably was in the
