Chapter Twenty Six: HIS REAL IDENTITY 2
Verdun remain standing in his favorite spot, the hall of souls, the noise never affected him and he knew damn well it won’t affect Jones but then the cries of innocent souls always give his heart great joy, always let him know he is the cause of their suffering, humans have always known to be wicked, even when they are weak, wickedness lays in their soul.
“I should be flattered the great alpha has called for me ” hearing Jones voice I turn around, my blues eyes burn into his grey eyes ” let me guess this is about Betty ”
” why else will I demand your disgusting presence ” I growl while he smile, moving closer to me, we stood two step apart from each other, our glares didn’t miss the needed direction.
” is this about the amazing kiss I shared with her ” he lick his lips ” she taste so good Verdun, just like a sweet coffee”
” stay away from her”
” no ” his answer sharp ” I like her and I want her ”
” she is not a cup of coffee ”
” I hate coffee ” he furrow his brows ” I only fought about that because I needed to place you where you belong ”
” but that didn’t work did it ”
” no it didn’t ” he mumble ” but then Betty is different, beautiful and so lively, marrying a dream walker will so be beneficial “Jones move to one of the painting ” I mean she is your mate, I know that but that necklace around her neck will prevent her from feeling the bond which is a good thing for me ” Jones keep on purring while I said nothing ” her life force is truly powerful, she doesn’t know how strong she is yet because the necklace is dragging her down but who ever will have lovely sex with her will gain so much, be connected with her powers, connected with her ”
” I see ” mumbling I frown ” you are just interested in her powers nothing else ”
” at first I was ” he turn around and look at me ” but then I get to know her and I like her, I will marry her Verdun and you will do nothing about it ”
” hmm”
” you don’t look so bothered, is this why Elizabeth left you ”
” don’t you dare bring her into this ”
” why shouldn’t I ” Jones frown deepen ” she is my sister, I have every right to say what I want to say, it was all your fault she fell into the arms of Lucifer ”
” it is not my fault she grow to love someone else, I treated her with love but then she move to Lucifer because he is more powerful and good looking ” I growl ” Elizabeth is not my mate, I despise someone who walk over my emotion and I don’t care if you wish to take Betty away ” I watch a blood drop from his nose ” if Betty is mine, she will remain mine”
He frown ” looks like am not cold hearted enough to withstand the cries of innocence” he clean his nose then give me one last glance ” Betty will be mined alpha, This is Dracula vow.”watching him leave I exhale, trying to push out the frustration from my body, why is he even in my mansion, I know he won’t leave even if I ask and am in no mood for another fight.
I hate thinking about Elizabeth, I treated her like a queen, told her my plans of getting married to her, told her how much I love and cherish her but what did she do.
When her gaze land on Lucifer she fell, it was his charm, I knew he wanted her in his bed and no fool will want to fight against Lucifer, I wasn’t a fool so I left her alone, allowed her to be with who she want even when my heart hurt every single time.
They is more to this but I have always choose to block it away, choose to keep Elizabeth where she belong, five feet below the ground, if only she was buried.
After talking to Mona and Dorothy in the kitchen I move to the servant quarter to rest for awhile and maybe think some things through. Opening my room door I step in, close it then almost die out of fright, Jones stood there smiling ” you scared me!!” Growling my frown deepen ” you don’t have the right to step into my room just like you wish ”
” am sorry Betty, didn’t mean to offend you ” he move close and hold my hands ” I just miss you, that’s all ” looking at him I pull my hands off his.
” I don’t get close to vampires Jones” he step back, shocked as to how I find out ” why will you hide such a thing from me ”
” you didn’t tell me you were a dream walker either ”
” is that needed” I growl ” you can perceive it from my body so why should I bother huh ”
” look Betty, I really like you that’s why I didn’t say that to you, am scared because you will push me away ” his voice pleading ” you are all I think about, I might even be in love with you ”
” you might??” I furrow my brows ” please leave Jones, I will like to think straight ” opening the door my frown deepen ” please leave ”
” Betty??”
” leave Jones ”
” don’t forget that I love you” he kiss my cheek before leaving while I close the door and exhale, all these new emotions are too much for me to handle, I need a break to think straight
••••
the next morning I woke up and start my usual routine, try to make a nice coffee then walk to Verdun room, opening the door I step in, close it and our gaze meet, he said nothing, he wore eyeglass still laying on the bed but reading something in a paper ” your coffee” he nod and I place it on his table.
Silence fill the room so I move to his balcony, sweep the place, clean it then move back to his bedroom ” I should change the sheets ” mumbling he drop his paper on the table, bring his two legs down, remove the glasses, taste my coffee and within three seconds spitting it out.
He haven’t even said a word, dropping the cup he look at me ” come ” holding my hand he pull me close to his body and at the same time stand to his feet, swallowing I notice he is only putting on boxers ” do you like Jones ” he hold my chin and make me look up at him, I knew I shouldn’t have said yes but I do like it when he is jealous.
” yes” I mumble, his facial expression didn’t change, it still look hard to read and am left wondering what he is hiding.
” why??”
” because he takes care of me ” watching him nod I became curious as to why he want to know all these ” what else do a man have to do to win your heart ” his question took me off guard and I remain shocked, why is he asking all these.
” I don’t know, maybe respect me, care for me, love me and treat me as his equal ” these are things I want from Verdun not all men, he nod then let go of my chin.
” your coffee taste horrible as always amor ” I watch him move to his bathroom, he called me amor which means he isn’t angry anymore and what’s up with all these questions.
What’s the meaning of amor?? I should ask him that some other time.
Smiling I change his blanket, clean his room, fold his clothes but he seem to be taking forever in the bathroom so I decided to sleep for some seconds on the bed but when my body felt how soft it is, I went into a deep slumber.
Stepping out of the bathroom Verdun tie a towel round his waist only to meet the most beautiful sight anyone could wish for, Betty laying on the bed, her hair covering half of her face, she look more pretty when she isn’t frowning or glaring.
Moving close to her I sit on the bed then tuck the hair behind her ear ” amor ” I mutter to make sure she isn’t awake before leaning close to inhale her scent, the wolf in me have missed it, closing my eyes I lick her neck then she gasp my name ” Verdun??” Withdrawing only a little I stare at her flushed face ” what are you doing ”
” am going to kiss you ” ignoring her question I mumble and she frown.
” I don’t approve ” her lips part as she grunt, its begging me to kiss her, her hands are on my chest but it isn’t pushing me away, she wants the kiss just as much as I want it.
” I wasn’t asking “slamming my lips down on hers she gasp and pull me closer, I want her to feel the bond, the bond holding me down so I unhook the necklace and let it fall off her neck, I watch her body shudder softly” ohhh” she moan and I took the opportunity to deepen the kiss.
When our tongue touch, electric shock move from my body to hers, I couldn’t think of anything else but her, me and the fact that my towel just fall down and am practically naked and hard.
Breaking the kiss I bite her lower lip then kiss her neck ” stop seeing Jones ” meeting her gaze again I said something I never imagine I could ” please ” she bite her lower lip then nod and in the process of that notice what has happened to my towel and my already hard cock.
Her face turn as red as a tomato” you’re naked ” she mumble refusing to look down again ” why are you naked!!” Yelling she grab a pillow to cover her face while I laugh at how shy she can be sometimes.

Chapter Twenty Seven: I HATE MYSELF FOR LOVING YOU
Betty cover her face with the pillow while Verdun laugh softly, its been awhile she heard him laugh ” can you put something on, please” mumbling the whole place become quite for some time before I could feel him move closer, snatching the pillow off my hands and throwing it to the other side of the bed.
Sitting up I move back to the headboard in order to give myself a breathing space, being with him is exhausting, exhausting in a good type of way ” what are you doing??” Asking I look down and exhale when I realize he putting on his shorts but his chests are bare.
” what’s so wrong in trying to see your eye colour amor ” he lean close and my heart beat increase ” am going to be having a guest amor, I want you to join me in the dining hall ”
” why??” My voice came out surprise, anxious and probably shocked ” what will a maid be doing there ”
” hmm” he mumble, using his fingers he keeping robbing a exact spot around my neck ” I don’t wish for you to be a maid anymore ”
” oh really ” furrowing my brows I wait patiently for an answer ” what change your mind ”
” I notice you hate that ”
” so if you haven’t notice I would still be a maid ”
” you know what I mean amor ”
” I absolutely don’t ” slapping his hands off my neck I fold my hands ” what will you do about Stella, if you wish not for me to go close to Jones then you have to send Stella back to wherever she came from ”
” I can’t do that amor ”
” why is that ?”
” she is important ” I watch him run his hands through his hair ” look am getting married to her for a reason, it won’t last amor ”
” wow” I clap my hands gently before getting off the bed ” is just like me telling you Jones is important and am getting married to him for a reason” yelling my frown deepen ” what is wrong with you Verdun?” I watch him stand to his feet but before he could hold my hand I step back ” you are making me feel like the other woman in your life ”
” you very well know is nothing like that ”
” how am I suppose to know that ” I growl ” when Stella is so precious to you, when she is very important to you then where should I place myself?? What am I to you ” he clench his hands but said nothing, he kept staring but no words left his mouth ” no answer!”
“Amor, you know you are very important to me ” he growl ” I set up this plan with Stella before I even met you, I can not throw all that away because I find my mate?? This set up will help my clan ”
” of course, I have never seen a lycan who treat his mate with so much love ” before I could leave he hold my hand and pull me back into his arms, the tears I have been fighting came flowing down while I sniff.
” this is just for a short period of time amor, I promise ” he mumble gently, his heart beating fast ” you have to trust me and please don’t hate me ” he tighten the hug while I exhale.
” why should I hate you ” struggling I withdraw from the hug ” it only shows that am the last thing that comes to your mind ” cleaning my tears I smile ” oh and the only person I hate is myself, I hate myself for loving you ” I watch his eyes widen when the words left my mouth ” I love you since I was sixteen, from just seeing your painting but now I wish I hate you…I wish ” turning around I walk out of the room and he didn’t stop me this time around.
I won’t lie that am not disappointed, I love being in his arms, I really like that with him but he has other priority and am last in his list ” that was tough ” mumbling to myself I move to the garden in the mansion, its still early in the morning.
Laying down I close my eyes to receive the morning sun and to forget about Verdun for awhile, he is just too complicated for me to understand anything, why is he so interested in marrying her?? It won’t last he say.
Maybe I shouldn’t have told him how I feel ” I saw you crying Betty ” hearing Jones voice I didn’t bother in opening my eyes so I ignored him completely ” why are you not wearing your necklace?? ” when he said that my hands move to my neck.
Its in Verdun room, he took it off while kissing me?? Oh my god. Sitting up I look at a confused Jones, he furrow his brows and I exhale getting agitated for no reason ” why do you care!” Growling I look at the flowers.
” you do know that I can take your life force right now, right”
” please do, am kind of tired of living ”
” what did Verdun do to you ” meeting Jones gaze I notice how worried he look ” did he make you cry, should I beat him up??”
” no” I sniff before realizing am crying ” its nothing, I chop some onions that’s why ” mumbling I clean my tears.
” let me get this straight ” he turn to face me properly ” you were chopping some onions in Verdun room??”
Nodding my head I chuckle ” yes” looking up at Jones I sigh ” do you really love me??”
” yes ”
” you are not interested in my life force ”
” no” he smile before tucking my hair behind my ear ” you need a man who knows how to take care of a woman Betty, I can be that for you, in fact I can be anything for you ”
” so smooth ” I chuckle shaking my head.
” a particular bird told me my little Betty like it smooth ”
” and who is this particular bird??”
” can’t snitch Betty” he smile licking his lips ” but then I know you like it, right??”
” not really ”
” damn it ”
Looking up at him we chuckle at the same time, he lean close and kiss my forehead ” what do you say Betty ” our gaze remain on each other ” will you marry me??”
” I don’t love you Jones ”
” you will grow to love me Betty ”
Should I marry who I don’t love, he treats me better than Verdun, he seem like a nice person and he did say he says he love me.
” amor look I ….” Hearing Verdun voice, Jones and I both turn to look at a angry Verdun but then Jones did something unexpected, he kiss me, he kiss me right in front of Verdun, not a soft kiss, he force his lips on mine deepening it
I couldn’t move because I was surprised and everything happened so fast.
