The Vampire's Witch Mate

CHAPTER 6: Supernatural Magnet.

Luther

What is that sound, is that someone crying or what. Who could that be, at this hour it is really quite late for humans now, but for me, it's time to hunt. Though today I wouldn't go hunting, I am forbidden in the human realm.

They are disturbing my peace. I just want to rest and come up with a perfect plan to lure Laura. She is my top priority now. But to concentrate I really need to make that cry baby stop wining.

I walk to my door, open it and head outside. I hear the sound, and I know where it is coming from, so I just follow it.

“Can you please stop crying, before I make you?" I say in anger.

The person continues to cry, now even louder.

"Why is everyone rejecting me." a female voice says amidst cries. I think I recognize that voice.

“What is wrong with you.” I say, walking towards the person and grabbing her from the ground. It is a woman. I look closely and it is her, Laura. Oh, no, why did I have to shout at her, and why is she crying.

“Hey, why are you crying.” I ask in a pretence voice I can find. I have never had to console anyone before. Not only that, but I am just so confused. She doesn't even say a thing, she continues to cry.

“Come with me.” I say softly, offering her hand to him.

She comes with me willingly, I open my new apartment and help her to a wooden seat. My house is all furnished. I was able to furnish it quickly because of the vampire speed. I even teleported my bed from Onyx Leeche. Furthermore, I really love my bed, so I couldn't picture myself sleeping on another bed.

I bought it years ago when I met my first love Molly, she was human. She was the kindest person I ever knew, it's been two hundred and fifty years since we parted ways, but I have always loved her and I think I always will. I don't think there will be a woman to take her place, not even Renata could. My Molly died due to old age, I wanted to turn her, but she refused me, she wanted to live a normal life, get married, have kids and die in old age. I couldn't give her that, so I had to let her go. I loved her so much that I was unable to bear seeing her suffer with me. She was happy with me, yes, but her dreams were far much important to me. I knew that eventually she would feel suffocated and love wouldn’t have been enough. I watched her as she got married, had kids and later died. Until now, I take flowers to her grave, I have maintained her grave. She is the love I couldn't have. It pains me that I am immortal sometimes, maybe things could have been different.

“What is wrong, Laura.” I ask her.

She doesn't answer, she just stares up at me, wakes up from her seat and hugs me. She breaks out again crying. I wait for her until she stops, I really am confused, I don't know what to say to her.

“I am sorry Liam, I am fine now. I will leave now. Thank you.” She says, breaking from the hug. And I feel a little disappointed as she lets go of me. She looks composed.

“Don't leave, just stay for a while until you feel better at least.” I say now genuinely. I would really like to know the person who made her cry that way until her eyes are all puffy and red. She must be really hurt. “Would you mind sharing what made you cry, if you don't mind."? I add, hoping that she would consider my request.

“I am fine now Liam, thank you for asking. I feel it would be better not to intrude, I will leave you to yourself now.” She says, forcing a smile on her face. But sadness is written all over her face.

“But how can you stay all alone in this situation, stay her just for a bit, okay."? I try to convince her.

“Oh no, actually, I don't live alone. I stay with Maxwell.” She says to me. And who is Maxwell, and why does she have to live with him.

“Alright, take care of yourself, okay? And remember your neighbor, Lu… I mean, Liam is here for you.” I say, forcing a smile.

“Thank you, Liam.” She says. And with that, she leaves me. I feel a sudden rush of loneliness, her presence was quite a comfort to me.

I cannot stop thinking about Maxwell right now. What can she be doing with him right now. What if I eavesdrop and listen to what they are doing. I am capable of that, but I don't want to invade privacy.

I decide to think of Molly, her voice, smile. Thinking about her always makes me calm, she is my antidote. If only I had a reason of going back in time to resurrect her, then I would have already. And that is another reason as to why I need to take Laura to Onyx Leeche, maybe when she gets her power, she will be able to take me back to the year when I met Molly, maybe I can re-write our love story. After all, if she is really the one, then she is the most powerful with in both realms, she is an Eclectic witch, the all powerful witch.

Laura doesn’t exhibit her powers because she was enchanted when she was born before her parents brought her to the human realm. But since she is almost 26 years old, her powers begin to manifest because the enchantment begins to wear out. That is according to the witch who sent us. She told the four of us who came to look for her that, immediately she turns twenty-six.

Magical creatures will begin roaming the human realm just to find her. I will have to do my best before all that happens, or else chaos will be seen in the human realm. Since she will be the magnet to supernatural creatures.

I cannot stop thinking of what she mentioned earlier, that everyone keeps rejecting her. I will have to find out more about the statement.
