Prologue
"Be happy. Without me." - Luna Cross, Year 2089
As a matter of principle, I hated functions. HATED. Capital letters. I could not emphasised enough.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3OWveqvpDi
654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1xHWPvIQL
Everyone were pretending to be BFF, allies and family. 654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpoRtULxwx
"Oh darling, I have missed you so much." 654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQmWzUvj6v
A little tingling in my head told otherwise. That darling would be dead by this week. Stabbing? I wondered. Those ugly minds were buzzing with plans to get rid of the competitions.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIxtlRct7x

Vampire Royalties lifestyle 101. We'd kill, but always remained civilised. Pah...654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0IRQ78p64y

My grandfather, General Cross, lifted his glass of wine towards me. I sighed. Throwing one last regrettable glance at the exit, I picked up a glass of wine and started to walk when…654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOTviPny90o
654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKiKMQklKD
I spun around. 654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68zr0z0DKm
Even amidst the crowd of colours and lights, I'd found Anton easily. His lips parted slightly and curved into a half smile and half "I want to slap him" look.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4e3iOfJ8Kp
654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BIZMRfRqj
Gravity shifted. When had I start falling so hard for someone I had only met two days ago? The rational mind of mine had thrown all logic and went gah gah over him. Oh the humiliation.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDiCBy4GbK
654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Mo4mc4nuc
He walked up the stage and commanded attention with just his presence. The noise in the ballroom ceased.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7ykJSa4b0

"My brother, Red, has passed away last winter." 654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7liHrf2US
No.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUeEvewwVy

"As his only surviving blood relative of the Clan Blood, I have…"654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM5KbJRlShI
654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64oDPwb5gq
My hand gripped hard on the stem of the glass. Blood pumping loudly in my ears.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCWZnuYbFQM
654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76XAXPcRfg
Everything changed. Everything. My eyes watched helplessly as he accepted.the applause. Accepting his new position in his Clan.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQOZQ3Ft3g
My precognition threw me off balance with the sudden download of information. I could not breathe. I had to get out before my tears started to fall. It would not do to show weakness in front of the predators around me. 654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58dXFUKpBQ
654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBrNaUzmk9e
Somehow I had managed to maneuver my way to the outdoor gardens.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBiPNaXTQ47
654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKVdCC4zfV
Smile. I must not break down. Oh God. I was breaking apart with every step. My vision was blurring. Shit. Shit!654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvg6KYYLC3G
654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5SLmTOkEm
"Luna!" The bass of his voice sent shivers down my spine. "Luna?" Uncertainty seeped into his voice.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5F9Va53rj
654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD3y5bzDSBZ
He appeared in front of me. Surprised by my tears, his warm hands rubbed over my arms. His tenderness twisted that knife in my heart deeper.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZnispxHAI
654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5OViPR09O
The possibility...654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVE8Tb6nz7J
654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlcktMOwyaF
His hands swept upwards to touch the side of my face. He cupped my face and raised my chin. Our eyes met. I could almost drown in the depth of his eyes. Specks of beautiful gold dancing in grey storm.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpeG7MVND4M
654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEbaelPycbo
For that moment. Time had stopped. Our breathes matched paces. Nothing mattered. For that moment. Just us. And no one else.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5EkTM43ljp
654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5AsMDfTfY
I wanted nothing more than to lean closer and taste his lips. To be drunk in passion. The grey in his eyes darkened. He bent down. An inch away. 654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxO2kClnS4S
Closer. Our lips just a hair breathe away.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKiaFleS3du
654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZl10o85x2Y
I shoved at him. He stumbled back from the unexpected rejection. His eyes widened. Confused.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5qNQARd8p
654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwuFfHmsDhe
"Wha- Luna, I thought." I interrupted him with my hand raised up.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEsjNQ43FA7
654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeRLQFmPjS4
"We can't." He stared at me blankly.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQolBVpF1mU
654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKG51NrnFD
"We can't." I repeated. "When you claimed your rights over the Clan, it is over." "Over." He parroted.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡesJbXYpsZU
654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYtTpdEhPia
"As the head of the Clan, you have to marry a bride. Chosen by the Council."654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GFp5lLYgm
654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsOgHMb7ko
He froze. He did not know. Of course not.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtcM9smEWAW
654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ofRl3XpaX
"I…" He ran his fingers through his hair and looked at me. "No one told anything about this. Please." He plead. "You have to believe me."654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSd4b458XU
654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44vJY1sWT1
He grabbed my shoulders and shook. "We have a connection." "We only met once before." My voice sounded lifeless.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFH1QgbsNu
654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdUsOYa9ER
"No. We could have..." His voice became strangled. There it was again. Could have. Maybe. Possibility. 654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4aBTnEInr1
654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmo83GoXQZl
Threads of life were dangling in front of me. 654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrr998s5ze
If we kissed now, I knew. We will be together.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvSntVzchB
654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15a4LoXgS8
Love will blossom between us. And so many life will be forfeited. The future branched out in my mind by my ability.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVKPxIJJ7p
654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMePOKaxzdq
My tears rolled down my cheeks. We only wanted to love each other. So simple. There was only one future for us in the end and I held the key to open one of the two possibilities.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQt7qljwMa
654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNk4gYUB0Lg
The Council would kill him for breaking the law. After his clan was destroyed before his eyes.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdMMQVNwg4
654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDhlWwo4IK
End this and he got a beautiful bride. I could see his happiness when he threw his arms over her and their newborn son. His other future so promising.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8isAiwp1s0
654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡotfyrHVymY
Just without me in it. We had not even begun. There was nothing to end.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFYHsfd4Fls
654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIx0DmpBOLd
"It's not fair." The words so soft that I almost missed them with my supernatural hearing.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRece3eGN1g
654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvgCXt59fJ
It took all of my strength to turn away. Each step felt so heavy. I took a deep breathe. "Goodbye Anton."654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbn6rFYIwaZ
