FORBIDDEN

Ch 40 Victor!

The shifter had under my control told me the details. 

Lorie had gotten inside somehow, but that he had lost her scent and tracks. He was unable to locate the location of the hidden castle and my boys. 

I growled in frustration here I was a LORD! a fucking Vampire LORD! powerful and some would say even evil and I couldn't get a damn wolf to track a dumb little girl. For the life of me, I no longer had what di dI have to do to get things done right. 

"MARCUS! I called out. 

the shifter running into my office head bowed as he entered. 

"Marcus, this is what I want you to do if you value your life for what it is, I need you to take two others and head back where you left Lorie," I paused... " I mean where you lost her tracks and wait, wait as long as you need even if its decades until she comes back out, at which time you will bring her back here to me, do you understand"  

"Yes My Lord" 

closing my eyes and running my hands down my face, I knew I had to get this under control. I need to get her to me, bring her in. I was in no mood to deal with such stupid people anymore. 

My boys had betrayed me, the world had gone to shit, and every kind of creature on this earth was trying to survive.  Lorie, for what it was worth was a wasted transformation, I took her from her abusive family on the brink of death as they all were and gave her a better life, I wish she had been older at least 18 and not 8. but that was not in the cards. She wouldn't of living another night let alone another 10 years in that house or after all the abuse she had gone through when I found here. 

I cringed remember my own daughter taken at such a young age along with her mother before I was turned into this, by a vampire lord who was far worst then I, Cemeteries ago and the pain sometimes still visits me. 

"AHHH!" I growled shaking this old shit off I didn't want to go 

I needed to unwind my thoughts before I lost all control. 

Lorie was a gift I had given myself, long ago but over the decades she had become ruthless in her pursuit to get her brothers back. Even after telling her to just stay with them, she wanted nothing to do with them as long as they were in love with the witch.  A witch I too liked very much but my duties pulled me away. I had heard that the brother all fought for her attention and that Lorie had been set aside, of course, this was all stories from a two hundred and an eight-year-old girl.  she never got over anything nor grew up no matter how many times we told her. I sighed regretting turning her, had she of just died all those years ago her soul would of at least had peace. 

Now, she just wanders around sad, alone and bitter. Stories all point to me, that I was the one who had done this to her. and I guess I did in some ways. But who was I kidding I really loved the kid, but enough was enough. 

Sending her off to her brothers was going to either make or break her and it was time she picked sides. 

She begged me for a decade to transform her into an older woman, I considered it many times but this time I allowed it. The witch I needed for the spell would also help me divert a plan to get Simoes to me.  

"Dave" I linked another hybrid 

"Yes, my lord" 

"Bring me the witch" I commanded

"yes, my lord" 

As I sat behind my desk waiting for the witch in question to arrive, My mind wandered as to what I would do with Simoes, what would I say. Would she even consider giving me a moment of her time?
