Chapter 8

Vince had a stressful week and he was slowly getting irritated by it. It doesn't normally take this long before he sees his sister then again he had always been focused on the task but this time he couldn't give all his focus to finding his sister, not while he has a mate and his mate is not with him. He gets so worried about her that he doesn't know if anything had happened to her.

Leaving her alone without letting the other primordials to know was risky, one of them might visit him because they are worried that they haven't heard from him in a while and when they see Gwen there, all it takes is one assumption that she broke in or something and then they kill her. Gwen isn't a fragile human but she is a fragile vampire. She might have immortality but she has not been immortal for long. Anything can easily snuff out her life in his circle. His fellow primordials are the biggest threat as of the moment.

He froze in his supernatural running as the thought entered his head. How could he be so stupid not to get in contact with his primordials and he never mentioned anything about mates to them so they might hurt Gwen. He felt the urge to protect his mate rise up in him as he struggled with himself not to go back. He was so close on his sister trail if he leave now, it might take him another three days to be this close to seeing her again.

Another three days of little to no contact with his mate. He rarely saw her and most of the time he sees her is to feed her his blood just like mated pairs always do so as to strengthen their connection and that always lead to them having sex and since her system is still adjusting, she is always drowsy after sex which is an improvement from falling asleep immediately. Still he cannot hold a conversation with her. He miss their talks and their playful banter, he miss staring at her while she concernate on something that is giving problems which is mainly a game on her phone and he misses her laugh. The one where she throws her head back and let out a laugh that was so free and uncaring that he cannot help himself but stop and stare at her while she produce that enchanting sound. That is if he was not already staring at her.

He was about to turn back since his instincts were leaning towards protecting his mate when the wind changed and his sister scent entered his nose. Faint but not too faint.

He started running again at supernatural speed as he tried to get to his sister as quickly as he could so that he can go back to spending time with his mate. He came stopped in front of his sister as she was sitting on a stool and singing in front of a crowd.

He sighs as a smile tug at his lips. Jessica who had managed to stay soft hearted no matter the terrible things she has seen, no matter the lives she had gotten attached to only to lose. His sister was truly amazing, living in the present she called it. Not in the past but in the present. He never could imagine it for himself before, his demons about the things he had done and seen haunt him too much for him to live in the presence but with the help of Gwen that is exactly what he sees himself doing. Living in the present and he will live to the fullest as soon as they take care of this present issue.

His sister stopped playing the guitar as her voice faded. The vampires around her clapped as she stood up and bowed and when the crowd disperse she ran to her brother and hugged him. Vince knew that she tries her best to retain a nineteen year old mind even though she was older.

" hello big brother. " Jessica said as she smiled up to her brother who hugged her back.

" hello Jessica I miss you. " Vince said as he hugged her tightly. Times like this he always remembered the day he was changed when his father and mother were leaving for the next village to sell their products quicker since the next village was bigger than theirs. His father told him that during the time he was gone, he should take care of his younger sister and he should protect her with everything he had got. It was a customary speech his father always gave him and he rolled his eyes as he agreed like he always did. He was a young senseless boy at the age of twenty five. He never knew that it would be the last time he ever saw his parents just like he never knew that he and his sister will be taken from their home and used as blood whores for vampires. That a female vampire who liked his look so much would turn him into a vampire so that he could be her everlasting pet. He killed her as soon as he could then he went to find his sister and saw her hanging on to life by a thread then he had to turn her because he was too selfish to let her die. He didn't want to be alone in the world. When he and his sister could control their blood lust, they went back home only to see that their house was overrun with weeds. His parents never returned home. He tried to find out about what happened to his parents but he couldn't and so he did his best taking care of his sister and always killing any vampire they came across. Until he met Jacob, he was trying to save a couple of children from a vampire who was raving mad. Then after that, the rest was history. It was three of them against the world and later they saw others and they all moved together to take control of the Vampire world. It was dark ages for them. But they made it into something amazing. Now every vampires were grateful to them and they could live in a peaceful world. Now somebody is threatening his work.

" why do you always think about when we were turned anytime we meet. " Jessica complains.

" so that I can appreciate the fact that we are still alive and you are safe and I am still fulfilling my obligation to father. " Vince replied without missing a beat.

" this isn't a social call is it. " Jessica asked after being quiet for a while.

" what made you say that. " Vince asked his sister.

" because the last time you couldn't wait for our meeting, that you searched for me was when a couple of mad vampires band together and were killing females vampires. " Jessica pointed out with raised eyebrows.

" okay you are right. Something is wrong. We need the full council of primordials to come to a conclusion. And I want you to be where I can see you. "

" okay. Let's go. " Jessica said with a smile as Vince stared at her in surprise. " what. " she asked

" no complaints. " Vince asked.

" no, something wrong is in the air. I can feel it and I rather be with family when it hits. " Jessica said as she moves to Vince who kissed her hair and teleported to his home.

As he released his sister hand, a body flew at him as legs wrapped around him.

" I missed you. " Gwen said as she kissed him.

Vince chuckles at that. Some one else would think that she has not seen him for a while now. Not knowing that it was for only less than three hours ago.
