While most of the students were enjoying the music, far away in the dungeon, Roman stood with his back leaning against the wall. His eyes were closed as if he was taking a quick nap, but his senses were sharp. Hearing footsteps in the dungeon, he opened his eyes that had darkened. Tilting his head, he noticed Olivia making her way to the front of the cell. She carried a paper in her hand. "It took a while for Isolde to leave the office from there. Is this what you were looking for?" asked Olivia,…-

Music Recommendation: Freaks- From Freaks - Tim Wynn — Julie shifted her things from her trunk to her backpack, like two pairs of clothes, nightdress, innerwear, and toiletry kit. She hoped not to get caught before leaving Veteris by the vampire Azazel Donovan. Slipping her phone in the back pocket of her jeans, Julie was almost done and ready to leave the dorm to visit Mel's room when she heard someone knock on the door. "Who is it?" asked Julie, staring at the door while one hand of hers…

The bite was nowhere gentle as the one Julie had felt last night. This one was slightly on the painful side, where she felt the prick of his fangs, and the strength in her hand started to weaken. She didn't try to stop him. Not knowing if it was because she had been holding it up for him to take for a long time or because of the blood that she was losing quickly. After a few more seconds, Roman pulled his fangs away from her wrist and licked the skin where he had earlier sank his fangs until it was…

Though every person in Veteris was celebrating its last day of the Fall Annual, Julie and her friends were not only devastated on hearing about Reese's death, but they were shocked on seeing the state of her body. Julie and her friends returned to Melanie's dorm, where Conner had taken a seat on the bed, while Melanie tried to console him. But there was very little anyone could say or do in such an unexpected death, and silence hung in the dorm. It wasn't just Reese's death that Julie thought about,…

Music Recommendation: Afraid of time- Hans Zimmer ??— Seeing the human's motionless body lying on the ground, Roman's eyes subtly widened. He was unsure if Donovan was trying to play him or the others or if he was being his conceited idiot self. But if he were to touch even a strand of Julie's hair to hurt her, Roman swore to kill his maker. His jaws clenched, knowing his maker wanted to get a reaction from him. "So fragile and delicate. You would think they would be able to survive but then…

Music Recommendation: Bevor Alles Wieder Passiert- Ben Frost — When Roman entered the boy's Dormitorium, the warden of the building looked up from behind the desk to look at the person who stepped inside. And though it was past the curfew time of the university, the warden made no effort to stop Roman. As he walked, the sound of his boots were prominent, and it echoed. Though Roman didn't speak to every person, he knew the people and the ones they were involved with. It was one of the advantages…

Music Recommendation: Sinking in - Before You Exit — Who would have thought that Roman Moltenore would know about such a beautiful place, asked Julie to herself. She stared at the fireflies that flew around the forest. Some were on the trees and some in the air, and it looked like Christmas had come early this time. The firefly that had come to sit on her palm flew away. Never before had she come across something so beautiful. Everything around her felt breathtaking, and she made a circle…

Roman had a murderous look in his eyes that narrowed in anger as he waited for Julie to reply to his burning question. There had been many times before this when Julie had seen him being but never before had she seen him this angry, and it scared her. "That…" Julie's voice trailed, noticing his burning eyes on hers. Roman gritted his teeth, closing his eyes to control his anger, which he couldn't right now. The next second he opened his eyes. They were dark red. He questioned her, "Was it…

Julie watched Roman standing in front of the Elders and the other three prominent staff members of Veteris, talking to them. She wondered if he was alright because she had seen him throw up blood while playing during the last few minutes of the match. "We already knew that the Hawks would win the match. Moltenore really knows the game. Did you see him move even after getting injured like that?" commented Conner, who was still high on the game like the other students who hadn't left the bleachers,…

Music Recommendation: To build a home- The cinematic Orchestra — Julie didn't directly go to meet her friends. And instead, she visited one of the nearest restrooms. Pulling the sleeves back, she stared at her reflection in the mirror. There was a bruise near the corner of her lips, but it didn't look as bad as she thought it would be. And it was because of the Corvin, who had touched her skin. Taking a peek at her blouse, it looked like she was wearing a designer blouse and was ready to walk…
