Lilith couldn’t sleep that night. She had tried several times to fall asleep, starting with drinking warm milk, or eating a big meal, or turning on a dim light so she could close her eyes and drift off. She had really tried, but every time she closed her eyes, Ingrid’s words seemed to echo in her head.

Hunger. That word felt like a curse to Lilith now. The little house was too quiet, with only the sound of rain still falling occasionally outside and the faint ticking of the old clock in the liv

    That night, rain fell gently, soaking the mansion’s garden. The soft patter of rain could be heard through the master bedroom window. Lilith sat on the edge of the bed, reading one of the old books Ingrid had lent her.But for the past fifteen minutes, she hadn’t turned the page. Lilith’s thoughts were wandering all over the place, about her transformation, about Noah, about her mother’s secret journal, and also about Lucas.“You’ve read that page three times already, Lilith.” Lucas’s voice snapped Lilith out of her reverie.Lilith immediately turned to look at him. “Huh?”Lucas closed the book he was reading. “You’re thinking about something.”Lilith gave a small smile. “It’s that obvious, huh?”Lucas nodded slowly. “Always.”Lilith sighed. “I was just...” She gazed at the rain outside the window. “Afraid that all this peace is only temporary.”Lucas looked out the window too. “It is temporary. No peace lasts forever. But... as long as there’s still time to enjoy it, we shouldn’t was

    For the first time in a long while, the mansion was filled with laughter that truly sounded like a home, not just a place where vampires lived. Evelyn sat with Veronica in the living room, enjoying the tea and apple pie she’d brought earlier. Even Selene joined them, occasionally cracking jokes that made everyone laugh.“I just found out that Lucas can actually smile like that,” said Evelyn.Selene burst out laughing. “Believe me, we just found that out too.”Lucas, who was reading a book, just sighed softly. “You guys are overreacting.”“Not at all, Lucas,” replied Veronica with a mischievous smile. “Ever since Lilith came back, this mansion has been so much livelier.”Lucas didn’t argue at all. He just lifted his book, while Lilith, sitting next to him, tried hard to hide her face, which was starting to turn red. As evening approached, Evelyn said her goodbyes and headed home.“I don’t want to be a bother to you guys,” said Evelyn.Lilith immediately shook her head. “You’re never a

    It had been almost a week since Lilith moved back into the mansion. Her days were starting to follow a new routine. In the mornings, she trained with Lucas. In the afternoons, she helped Ingrid translate ancient symbols. In the evenings, she spent time with Lucas.Even if they were just sitting side by side in the library or enjoying tea on the balcony, Lilith began to realize one thing. She was getting used to his presence in her daily activities. She even started to miss him when Lucas was gone for just a few hours.“Don’t keep staring at him like that,” Selene said, making Lilith jump.“What?”Selene leaned against the library doorway, grinning mischievously at Lilith.“I wasn’t...”“Liar.”Lilith immediately closed the book in her hand. “I was just listening to his explanation, that’s all.”“Oh, really?” Selene chuckled softly. “Then why did your eyes follow Lucas when he moved to the next shelf?”Lilith opened her mouth, then closed it again. She couldn’t even begin to refute wha

    The sky was still bathed in golden hues when Lucas led Lilith out of the mansion. The morning air felt very cool. Dew still clung to the grass stretching behind the mansion’s garden. Lilith rubbed her arms gently.“Where are we going?”Lucas glanced back at her. “To study.”“To study?”“To control yourself.”Lilith fell silent immediately. She had almost forgotten that ever since her transformation began, she hadn’t really practiced controlling the thirst that kept surfacing. If Lilith had managed to hold on this long, it was only because Lucas had always been by her side. But Lilith also knew full well that she couldn’t rely on Lucas forever.“I’m ready,” Lilith said firmly.Lucas gave a faint smile. “That’s what I wanted to hear.”At the very back of the mansion was a spacious garden surrounded by old trees. The place was quite a distance from the mansion itself.“Why are we here at night?” Lilith asked.“Because if something happens… no one will get hurt,” Lucas replied, glancing a

    The morning at the Lucas mansion began with a moment of silence that felt quite soothing. Lilith woke up first. For a moment, she simply stared at the ceiling, savoring those few seconds while her mind was still at peace. But that peace never lasted long.A faint scent filled Lilith’s sense of smell, a sweet, warm, and alluring scent. Lilith furrowed her brow slightly. She immediately recognized the scent quite clearly now. It was blood. Lilith’s heart began to beat a little faster. Instinctively, she turned her head to the side.Lucas was still asleep, lying with his body facing her. Lucas’s face even looked much more peaceful than usual. His black hair was slightly disheveled. And that actually made him look much younger than the cold demeanor he always projected. Lilith smiled slightly as she looked at him.“How strange…” Lilith murmured. “Even while you’re sleeping, you’re still handsome.”Lilith immediately covered her mouth. “Oh my…”Luckily, Lucas didn’t hear Lilith’s mutter. O

    The morning at the mansion felt much calmer than the night before. Sunlight streamed in through a gap in the master bedroom curtains, falling directly onto the large bed where Lucas and Lilith were still fast asleep. Or, more accurately, only Lilith was asleep, while Lucas was simply finding peace in the stillness.Lilith was the first to slowly open her eyes. But for a few seconds, Lilith simply stared at the ceiling with a confused look. Then she began to realize something. Warm. So warm. She slowly looked down.Lucas was still asleep beside her. One of his arms was loosely wrapped around her waist, as if he’d unconsciously pulled her much closer to him during that moment of stillness. Lilith’s heart immediately began to race.“Oh my God…” she murmured softly.Lilith tried to shift her body slowly, little by little, so as not to wake Lucas. But as soon as she made the slightest movement, Lucas’s arm tightened around her reflexively. Lilith froze instantly.“Lucas…” she whispered sof

    Lilith finally returned to her rented apartment by the time it was completely dark. Yet her thoughts seemed to linger at Lucas’s mansion, specifically in that cozy living room, among Veronica and Victoria, who welcomed her as if she’d never been away for long. And… especially with Lucas.Lilith let

    Lucas walked into the house without saying much. His clothes were still slightly damp from the rain. Even as a vampire, he didn’t seem bothered by the cold at all. Lilith, however, felt awkward in front of Lucas now.Because for the first time since they’d met, Lilith herself had invited Lucas into

    On the way home from Ingrid’s antique shop, Lilith barely spoke a word to Evelyn. Evelyn had glanced at Lilith several times from the driver’s seat, but chose to remain silent. Her best friend knew her well enough to know when to ask questions and when to let her process everything on her own first

    Lilith woke up, her breath coming in gasps. Her chest rose and fell rapidly. Her heart was pounding too loudly. The room was still dark, and only a small lamp in the corner of the living room was still glowing dimly, while a light rain fell again outside the window.It took a few seconds before Lil
