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.344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVJJ0ecXDz
344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywaPohXlKX
Everyone were pretending to be BFF, allies and family. 344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqd8ubM55c
"Oh darling, I have missed you so much." 344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL3Y8B4nC4l
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.344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4tFEImN9qN

Vampire Royalties lifestyle 101. We'd kill, but always remained civilised. Pah...344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7VPlxCYOrZ

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…344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gcUgsaO23
344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1XiYucseEw
I spun around. 344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdpRthbvsJA
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.344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF5UsLa043v
344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHOVdturzVX
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.344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡybQUFyralg
344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRIVoxDkjxn
He walked up the stage and commanded attention with just his presence. The noise in the ballroom ceased.344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vFOs6iICs

"My brother, Red, has passed away last winter." 344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ118MBt7One
No.344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3igPPgkh7b
344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ669QNd82wy
"As his only surviving blood relative of the Clan Blood, I have…"344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmnvPoZ6Vh
344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFW6hsVcn4q
My hand gripped hard on the stem of the glass. Blood pumping loudly in my ears.344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ33rAQS4n7d
344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTkouzGGNk
Everything changed. Everything. My eyes watched helplessly as he accepted.the applause. Accepting his new position in his Clan.344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡleV8z1J20j
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. 344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkGXmSQw78
344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCjygwsRaI
Somehow I had managed to maneuver my way to the outdoor gardens.344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNB8HYpImiB
344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZOdFS5g5O
Smile. I must not break down. Oh God. I was breaking apart with every step. My vision was blurring. Shit. Shit!344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMgn3cCBrA
344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU159ouhpg1
"Luna!" The bass of his voice sent shivers down my spine. "Luna?" Uncertainty seeped into his voice.344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUER8vQjJDS
344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyur1shkfT
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.344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzFKH7tPw1I
344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwTeLkniZ8v
The possibility...344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLWYgfuath
344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGoEJVc04NX
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.344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2n3t5LLtip
344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTd827HELR8
For that moment. Time had stopped. Our breathes matched paces. Nothing mattered. For that moment. Just us. And no one else.344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Dk3KWPjAE
344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3nqFMBdBHx
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. 344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdt0yQ9rjdo
Closer. Our lips just a hair breathe away.344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2BnC36iwtm
344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡscI5QzTZqP
I shoved at him. He stumbled back from the unexpected rejection. His eyes widened. Confused.344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNefdp8hVp
344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡogGM2u6IGc
"Wha- Luna, I thought." I interrupted him with my hand raised up.344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZUFSrHkS0
344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZAYCn1bE1r
"We can't." He stared at me blankly.344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9Knqr0OB7
344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0IgKNM8c4
"We can't." I repeated. "When you claimed your rights over the Clan, it is over." "Over." He parroted.344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡow7sibdeRY
344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdaRpYrFBqX
"As the head of the Clan, you have to marry a bride. Chosen by the Council."344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZMJ38r6vwd
344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdoQ9MYu0yg
He froze. He did not know. Of course not.344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeiHukIgzcU
344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTyu31eDKC
"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."344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdE80mIutov
344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp7uMyPtDcY
He grabbed my shoulders and shook. "We have a connection." "We only met once before." My voice sounded lifeless.344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2U5cXtkaVR
344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1OnOipxKWo
"No. We could have..." His voice became strangled. There it was again. Could have. Maybe. Possibility. 344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPYTxgcFTBq
344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcA3BWo19sR
Threads of life were dangling in front of me. 344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzuUOp6zkxP
If we kissed now, I knew. We will be together.344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWNyKEtsBZ
344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0d0NpHL8L
Love will blossom between us. And so many life will be forfeited. The future branched out in my mind by my ability.344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqT9Uc7FLs
344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ30tn6SJePx
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.344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTIIiY4gvny
344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Tora66LXR
The Council would kill him for breaking the law. After his clan was destroyed before his eyes.344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDQRmlqBVp
344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGGHNpJb0I
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.344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOQno6oMMY
344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOPQNWAyhqS
Just without me in it. We had not even begun. There was nothing to end.344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkGKjhgEepw
344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHhXbKlyfWA
"It's not fair." The words so soft that I almost missed them with my supernatural hearing.344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ftNGj2VhY
344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUadSLGeS72
It took all of my strength to turn away. Each step felt so heavy. I took a deep breathe. "Goodbye Anton."344Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgZ880Nf1G
