IN MY Veins [Complete]

Chapter 13

2 Years Later

Never have I been in a blue calm sea. I have always been in a storm.

The mirror in front of me showed my reflection and the only thing I saw was the long scar penetrating on my ribs. Slowly, small fragments of the past crossed my mind as I saw that part of my body. But I didn't want to relieve all over again, so I shook my head and applied my lipstick. Finishing, I wore the grey dress that was laid on my bed. I returned to the mirror and readjusted my hair.

A loud knock from the other side of the door was heard, "Amelia, hurry up."

I shouted back, "I am coming."

The commotion outside of my bedroom disappeared and my gaze travelled to my reflection again. This time I didn't see the scar, but I saw my Present... The today, the better days...

Two years ago, I met Winter, the Queen of witches, and later Caleb, the King of the vampires. I adapted to their presence rapidly and accepted them as my real family, and vice-versa.

When I met Caleb, I had an intense desire to learn more about vampires, just like I had when I met the witches. Bottom line, the only thing I know about the legend is that somehow connects with the witches and the vampires. But the rest still remains hidden...

When I took the decision to learn about the vampires, Winter was reluctant to let me go, which led her to tell about my Past. After few arguments, we all decided that I would visit the coven once every month and keep contact with Winter.

As I reached the colony, the same dark aura surrounded and the same familiarity was felt. I started to live with the vampires and I mastered my Alpha voice as it worked same as compulsion. I could control any creature with my voice and change their thoughts, just like I could change auras on others. These powers matched and connected like a puzzle...

The vampires already knew about the legend, so it was easy to accept me. They were all eager to make part of something... Like Winter, Caleb revealed my past to the vampires and they weren't happy, like the witches. At the end, the witches and the vampires refused to let me visit the werewolves' territories for my safety, also refused to find more about the legend.

Accepting me was easy, however, to bring these two creatures wasn't that easy.

In the beginning, there were several fights between them. The vampires were hell-bent to scare the witches in every passing second and the witches loved to use their powers against them. The Royals, Winter and Caleb, watched the scene from the sidelines. While I got in the middle to break the fights in order to remain the balance.

Their fights didn't last long, though.

One day, Winter came to the colony to take me back to her coven. She was excited when she saw me with my bags, however, her smile dropped when Caleb tagged along. She hated Caleb more when she saw that my friendship with him had grown. Winter had always been jealous and protective when it came to me, because she counted me as a family member, as she has none.

As we reached the halfway through, we encountered a rogue that had sneaked behind Winter but before he could claw her, Caleb saved her. Winter regained her composer and killed him on the spot. That day, a vampire had saved a witch, it was unheard of... But their kinds heard about it and re-thought. Slowly, both kinds started to tolerate each other and fewer fights happen, and soon even the fights stopped.

As civil they were with me, they wanted me in one place and were tired of travelling from one land to another. So, after few arguments, both parties accepted to live in one land and along with it keep me safe.
