The Hunt For Immortal Love

There is a sound of absolute terror that fills the forest as chaos erupts before my very eyes. It is hard to see under the struggle that is a bundle in a ball of tumbling bodies if my beloved is still moving. As I watch one Ripper by one get pulled off from her lifeless body, it is pure agony that shoots through my body. It is with absolute impatience that I wait to be untied. The minute my hands are free, I leap to her in an instant. While I kneel next to her, I watch as the Rippers get ripped themselves. Well, I guess it is true that every dog has its day; in this case, a Ripper has gotten what he had coming.

So as I shake my beloved, I need to find the urge not to cry in front of all that is present. I know that she is okay; it is only the terror that has her beyond scared.

"My beloved, they are all gone."

Very bewildered, she opens her eyes; her voice is a soft whisper underneath her shivering lips.

"Sebastian, what happened?"

From behind me, a very dear friend steps in front to join Anastasia and me.

"You had us all a bit worried there. And I must say I have been wanting to do that for some time now."

Anastasia looks somewhat confused at me. Now I know how intimating this man next to me must appear. In all his six foot five inches, he towers me, with a body that is rippled to perfection. Every crevice and curve is covered in the perfect vision of ink that makes his body a story to be told. With piercing blue eyes and his head of absolute insane perfect hair, he is standing over my beloved to gently pull her off the ground. Now, if I have not known him for as long as my Vampire years, I would, at this point, have slapped that charm right off his face.

So after his elegant entrance, I can see by his relaxed calmness that every single Ripper has met their fate. Still captivated by this god of a man, my beloved whispers under very shaky breaths.

"Who are you?"

After being satisfied that he is still very much a charm around the ladies, he hands Anastasia over to me.

"The name is Connor from the Crimson Shadow Pack."

"You are a bunch of muts?"Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

"Ha! I see that my dear Sebastian still likes to refer to our kind as a bunch of muts."

I watch as clear confusion runs over Anastasias face; I know what the poor girl is thinking. How can we so casually sit next to a bunch of werewolves that has just saved our lives from the Rippers? Well, it is kind of a very long tale to tell, but the short of it is that Connor was giving a chance to immortality if his pack shall protect the very thing that a wolf is supposed to despise the most. Of course, immortality is such a thing that can not be turned away, so he decided to take the oath and have been protecting our kind from the other lurking dangers that we find ourselves unable to defend ourselves. Well, only in a present situation such as this.

And do believe me that it is somewhat embarrassing to be saved from our own kind, but what does make me wonder is why they are here.

"Why do you find yourselves out here?"

"We got wind of a bunch of Rippers that moved in here, now they did create some havoc in the start, but they soon stopped the minute they became aware of our presence. We were waiting for them to make a wrong move; unfortunately, it had to be you. But I am relieved that we got to you before it was too late."

"So you staying here?"

"No moving on, you know how it goes; there is always some Vampire that needs saving."

"Well, my dear friend, I am eternally grateful for saving my beloved's life."

"Beloved? Well, look at that. Mr. Casanova has been tamed."

Then Connor turns to Anastasia, "My dear, I would say he is a gem, but the man can be a hand full."

"Oh, believe me, that once we are out of here, he is so getting every piece of my mind."

Then Connor turns back to me, with a look of questions on his face.

"What is it that you find yourself out here?"

"We came looking for Elloise."

"Well, we shall accompany then, for I fear there are a few other creatures that wish to see you dead."

"You make it sound that I pissed the supernatural world off."

"Do you truly want me to answer that?"

...Anastasia POV...

I thought I was going to die there, never and I say never have I been so scared in my life. It seemed as if they were just about to eat me alive. Well, in fact, they were, but just imagining my limbs being ripped from my body does make my stomach turn in such a way. The moment the biggest one of them all came close to taking a chunk of my flesh from my neck, I hated every moment of being a Vampire. The hissing, the snarling, the way they snapped their fangs, has my body shiver in such a way that I wished that I was dead.

But then this man came to my rescue; no man is not a word; this is a god. If Sebastian even knew the improper things that I am thinking of this Connor, he would take me away in an instant. I am captivated by the way the sunlight bronzes his skin, by the way those muscles fold and twist with every step that he takes. That body is so hot that you can melt honey on it, I can...well I can think of...

"My beloved, come walk on the other side of me."

"But Sebastian..."

"My beloved, I insist."

Well, there goes my fun, still cannot help me to stare at him. If I can just run my finger over those abs, they seem rock hard, but god so inviting.

But out of nowhere, Sebastian stops and looks at Connor with somewhat frustration.

"My dear friend, can you perhaps put some clothes on. I am starting to blush just knowing what these two ladies are thinking."

Connor laughs from deep in his belly, for he knows exactly the thoughts that are rushing through Lilith and my head. What is that saying, if you have it, then use it? Well, this man is using it to his full advantage. He is... "My beloved! I insist that you focus on the task at hand."

"What? What did I do, Sebastian?"

...Sebastian POV...

This is frustrating; my beloved is thinking of these inappropriate things about another man. My ears are hurting from listening to what she is thinking. The very thought of her imagining another man is driving me absolutely sick. So it is with much relief that we step into the opening that leads us into the valley where Elloise and the other fairies live. Now, this is beauty; this is something that the eye should look upon and say this is what I want my mind to be filled with. Not some buff wolf that is making the knees weak of two very worked up Vampires.

Now imagine a field of pink and white flowers as far as the eye can see, big lush trees towering to the blue sky, a small river that leads into one giant pond under the biggest tree in the valley. And that tree is where we shall find Elloise, but we are not allowed to enter without the blessing of someone that lives here. So we are patiently waiting for someone to grant us access. And much to my frustration, Connor remains by our side, for he shall need to accompany us out of the forest again.

It takes only but a few minutes, and servent of Elloise come up to us, and no, the poor creature is not flying as my beloved is just about to ask me.

"Sebastian, why is she not flying."

"My dear beloved, she does not fly. Do you not remember me telling you this, or is your mind too flooded with everything that is Connor?"

"Sebastian, how can you even say such a thing."

"Believe me; I know exactly what you are thinking. Now can we please focus? This is a rather serious matter."

But yes, that is not about to happen, for this damn Connor bends to pick up a little stone, and of course, Lilith and Anastasia are getting a perfect view of his ass. And without even thinking what I am doing, I slap him, not against the arm, not in the face, no, on the ass.

Just a heads up: is the only place to read the complete version of this book for free. Don't miss out on the next chapter-visit us now and continue your journey! "Sebastian!"

"Anastasia, look what you made me do now."

"Oh no, you are not blaming me for that. Now can you stop messing around?"

With all jokes aside, we are finally escorted to where Elloise has been quite amusingly looking at this group of silly Vampires.

"Well, Sebastian, to what do I owe the entertainment?"

"Good to see you again, Elloise, we, your sister included..."

Everything goes dead quiet as Elloise immediately seeks Lilith, and if I thought that I had not seen all the strange of what I can, now I am seeing a Fairy and a Vampire locked in an embrace that looks very much like a loving hug. We quietly step aside and let the moment play its course. It is very clear that these two, despite their different species, have a great fondness and very evident love for each other. What the mortal world cannot seem to grasp at the best of times is that no matter differences, we see and appreciate each other; that is when we are not trying to kill each other.

Once the emotions have calmed, and everyone seems to be at themselves, I proceed to try and tell Elloise of the reason we find ourselves here. But wait, Connor has just been spotted. The thoughts from Elloise that just ran through my head put me to shame. That thing my beloved loves to do with her tongue, well I think that Elloise has just defined a whole new meaning to that. To think that she wishes to twist her body...

"For god sakes, can all of you women stop fussing over Connor. I swear if I hear one more dirty, disgusting thought, I am going to get sick to my stomach."

But yes, they do not even grasp what I just said; I might as well just sit back and let the drool fest carry its course, not that I think I will. Now, after a frustrating discussion of the girls over how far more superior this man is over me, I casually interrupt them.

"Elloise, I have got some business to discuss, now if you wish for me to leave Connor here, trust me, I would gladly do so."

"Yes, Sebastian, you need not say a word; I do know why you have come to us." "You do?"

"I felt the presence of the book was being moved from its intended place of rest."

"Well, then I am hoping that you will be able to tell me where it finds itself now?"

Then Elloise stands from where she is sitting to approach me, but not before she makes a circle around Connor, running her fingers over his sculpted chest. I take one deep breath and pray that this nightmare will soon be over. Finally, she comes close to me and whispers the very exact address where the book is.

"My god, what is he doing with the Book of Spells?"
