Chapter 29: The Transition

Alina Dalca's POV

After our performance and all the energy that we have been using since then, Kyle has been bedridden because he was unconscious after he drinks my blood. I need to think positively as I followed all the right ritual to change a mortal into an immortal. I was pacing back and forth as I was worried sick about his transition.

"How was he?" Luke asked when he went inside my bedroom.

"still out. I don't know, brother. Did I do it right? I don't want him to be dead," I said as I was expressing my concern to Luke. He pulled me inside his arms.

"Everything will be alright, Alina. Besides, you have Dracula's blood in you," he joked. I punched his arm.

"that's not funny," I said as I was walking back and forth in front of Kyle.

"come on, you've been missing your breakfast and now lunch. You need to eat something," he said as he pulled me out of the bedroom.

"I guess you're right," I said as I went outside before I looked at Kyle.

"of course, I'm right. Now let's eat," he said before he closed the bedroom as we went to the kitchen to grab something to eat.

Kyle Conti's POV

I was in the darkness after I drank Alina's blood last night. We have some more of our carnal desires fulfilled as I went on to make her have her release more than once. I chuckled at that thought I was able to make her come more than she should. I have been making her sore after our meeting last night. I admitted that our love relationship was complicated but I have to do something that made me sure of my life with her.

"are you now?" A familiar voice has come inside my mind.

"who was there?" I asked as I was looking around the darkness. There was nothing but me and I was sure that I just hallucinated.

"no you are not and you are not in a dream," the voice said as I was searching for its source.

"Who are you? Show yourself," I said I was not afraid to look at who was it.

"will you just relax, son," my father's voice comes as a figure out of light was forming in front of me. I have to close my eyes as it was too blinding for me to look.

"Father?" I asked as I cannot believe that I was talking to my father.

"why, yes, my son. It is I, Oronzo Conti, talking to you," he said as I was looking bit of shock.

"But how, you're dead like 5 years ago," I said as I was trying to make sense of all this situation. He laughed at me as I was trying to look at him.

"yes, you are but have you forgotten of what you have seen this past week? You have met vampire, ghost and of course the love of your life, but let's not go into that, shall we?" He said as he was circling me.

"Why are you here?" I asked him as he was deep in thinking.

"what? Ah yes, of course. I forgot to mention that you don't have to be afraid of anything now. I knew that when I was alive, you did not learn anything from me but your mother always believe that you will do amazing things in this world, mortal or immortal," he said as he took my hands.

"mother said that?" I asked how she knew.

"yes, your mother has a thing in this situation. You are now in transition to become immortal a.k.a vampire. Your mother said that when she gave birth to you, she saw a vision that you will die young but she did not expect you to be living undead," he said as he was caressing his beard.

"Anyway, son, I want you to always remember that you will always be amazing and do not forget your soulmate," he said before he disappeared in front of me.

"Father!" I called after him as I was reaching out at him before it turned dark all again.

Back in the bedroom, I did not how long have I been out. I could not move as I knew that I paralyzed when the transition was inside my system. I have not opened my eyes and moved my hands but suddenly, just now, I can feel that my hand was moving a little but there was no one to see it. I knew that Alina has been working hard to care for me and hoping that I will wake up soon. I am trying so hard to get out of this transition but it wouldn't allow me. Not until I speak to someone dear to Alina.

"Hello Kyle Conti," a voice was coming inside my mind. I looked around as I knew this will be another dream that I have during my transition. The voice chuckled as it appeared in front of me. It was a woman, like my mother. But she was different. Her aura was different.

"Who are you?" I asked her as I looked at her. She chuckled at my question.

"You may not know me but I am one of the dearest family to Alina," she said. Then I would've guessed who she was.

"Are you her mother?" I asked the figure.

"that is correct, my son. Since you have decided to be like my daughter, I just have one advice for you," she said.

"what is it?" I asked her again as I did not get what she was talking about.

"after your transition, you will need to eat human blood like Alina when she first became a vampire. But do not worry. Ask for Luke's help and I am sure you will be okay," she said before she looked at me. I blinked for a while. then, she was gone.

"They want to convey their message through you," a voice that I have not heard since I was 8 years old.

"mother?" I whispered as I turned around slowly to see that my mother was looking at me.

"Hello, Kyle," she said before I burst into tears.

"Mother!" I said as I went to hug her and I did.

"Mother, oh, mother. Where have you been?" I said as I was hugging her tightly.

"I need you to be strong, Kyle. You have to keep up the big brother image that you have," she said.

"why is that, mother?" I asked her as I looked at her. She just chuckled at my question.

"When you wake up, you will know why," she said as she looked at me, caressing my cheeks.

"what are you saying?" I asked again but my vision on my mother has slowly faded.

"mother, no," I shouted as I was trying to get back at her.

"take care, my child and also my grandchild," was the last thing she said before I exhaled and took a deep breath when Alina's face came into my view.

"Kyle, thank god," Alina said as she hugged me and I hugged her as I nuzzled her neck. It was good to be back.

Charlotte's POV

"So, what do we do now? I see that we have a new member in our clan," I said as I looked at Luke who was watching Alina and Kyle as they were animatedly talking about Kyle's transition.

"what are you trying to say, Char?" He asked me as I was leaning against the window.

"oh, I don't know. It might be a little crowded after the new member will come into this world," I said as I was looking at my finger.

"Are you suggesting that we should leave them to their own happiness?" Luke said as he looked up from the window to look at me as his red eyes were looking at me.

"you don't have to punish yourself for your past, Luke. You need to live for your own life now," I said as I was looking at him. He sighed before he went to sit at the bed.

"what do you suggest for me to do, Char? It not like I can just go and abandon my hometown," he said as he ran his fingers through his hair. Did he not know that it made me go crazy when he did that.

"let's go to Lisbon. You have the power and wealth to explore the world. Why not do it then?" I asked him as I went to sit beside him. He sighed before laying down on the bed. I followed him as I wanted to talk him out to explore the world.

"I have been bored as my training is over. I wanted to live like a normal human being," I said as I was caressing his chest.

"But we are not normal, Char. Never will Never was," he said as it made me stopped only track of caressing his chest.

"very well then, if you don't want to, then, I will not push it any further," I said as I got up from his bed and went out of the bedroom.

I was running toward my room as I can feel tears were coming out of my eyes. I stopped to look at Alina and Kyle that were laughing at each other. I thought I could have that with Luke but what he only cared was that I can be controlled and I was not a harm to anyone. well, guess what, Luke Dalca, I was not your toy and sure was not anyone that controls me. I wet inside my room as I went to take out my backpack and opened it.

"it's time for me to be on my own," I said before I went to pack my essential stuff and went out of the mansion tonight.
