Inside the house, everything was silent…
But outside—
The howls of the werewolves echoed from every direction.
As if darkness itself had surrounded the house…
Waiting for the perfect moment to strike.
Within minutes, everyone began packing the remaining belongings.
Soon…
They would leave this city forever.
Inside the room, Ayaan and Alina sat facing each other.
For a few moments, the fear outside felt far away from them.
Alina slowly held Ayaan's hand.
Alina: "Ayaan… after we get married… when we finally become one…
you'll turn into a normal human, right?"
Ayaan smiled softly.
Ayaan: "Yeah… absolutely.
But why are you suddenly asking that?"
A trace of fear appeared in Alina's eyes.
Alina: "Because right now… you have these vampire powers.
You won't die easily…
Maybe you won't even grow old for another hundred or two hundred years.
So why would you give all of that up… just for me?"
Ayaan looked at her silently for a few seconds.
Then slowly moved closer.
Ayaan: "Alina… just like the weather is never only winter…
or only summer…
life shouldn't stay the same forever either."
Alina listened quietly.
Ayaan: "If life lasted forever…
people would never truly understand its value.
What would I even do with immortality…
if you weren't beside me?"
His voice grew deeper with every word.
Ayaan: "Before you came into my life…
I spent fifty years alone.
And I never want to live that way again.
I want a normal life.
I want us to get married…
to have children…
to grow old together…
And even in old age…
I want us to love each other the same way we do now."
Tears filled Alina's eyes.
Ayaan: "And then… one day…
after living an entire life together…
we'll say goodbye to this world… together."
The moment she heard that—
Alina broke down in tears.
She immediately wrapped her arms tightly around him.
Alina: "Do you really love me that much…?
That you'd even give up your powers for me?"
Ayaan gently wiped away her tears.
Ayaan: "Yes…
I love you more than anything."
For a few moments, they simply stood in each other's arms…
As if nothing else in the world mattered anymore.
Then softly—
Alina: "Has a vampire ever fallen in love with a human before?"
For a moment…
Sadness crossed Ayaan's face.
Ayaan: "Yes…
My older brother, Arnav."
Alina fell silent.
Ayaan: "He fell deeply in love with a human girl too…
But before they could get married…
they became too close to each other…
And my brother lost his powers."
Alina: "Then… what happened?"
Ayaan slowly lowered his eyes.
Ayaan: "After losing his powers…
he died in the car accident caused by your father.
If he still had his powers…
maybe he would never have died."
Silence filled the room.
Then suddenly—
Knock… Knock…
A soft knock came from the door.
Kavya was standing outside.
Kavya: "Are you both ready?
We have to leave now."
Ayaan: "Yeah, Mom…
You take Alina's mother with you.
We'll be there in a minute."
Everyone was preparing in the hall.
Outside, the storm was growing even stronger.
Dad: "Jack, go get the truck ready.
We'll bring the luggage."
Jack stepped outside.
A few minutes later, everyone had gathered in the hall…
But Jack still hadn't returned.
Tension became visible on Dad's face.
Dad: "William… go check if everything's alright."
William slowly walked toward the main gate.
But just as he was about to open it—
"DHAAAAAMMM!!!"
With a deafening crash—
The entire gate exploded inward.
Dust filled the air everywhere.
Everyone instantly stepped back.
For a few seconds, the whole hall disappeared beneath the cloud of smoke and debris.
And then…
As the dust slowly settled—
Everyone's eyes widened in horror.
Lying before them…
Was Jack's dead body.
His body had been ripped apart brutally.
His stomach was torn open..
And his intestines hung out grotesquely.
As if something had ripped him apart while he was still alive.
The horrifying sight made Alina's mother scream before collapsing unconscious.
Ayaan understood immediately—
The danger had reached their home.
Without wasting another second, he grabbed Alina and her mother…
And quickly locked them safely inside a room.
Then he rushed back into the hall.
Now—
There was nowhere left to run.
Outside… was death itself.
And at any moment—
It could break into the house.
Fear was clearly audible in Peter's voice.
Peter: "What if their pack is too large…?
We won't be able to fight them."
Ayaan immediately looked at his father.
Ayaan: "Dad… we need to tell them the truth.
We didn't kill the Alpha King.
Someone else did."
Dad answered tensely—
Dad: "But we ourselves don't know who killed him.
And until we reveal the whole truth…
they'll never believe us."
Ayaan's gaze slowly shifted toward Kavya.
His voice had turned serious now.
Ayaan: "Mom… you know everything, don't you?
Please tell us the truth…
What if this secret gets all of us killed?"
Silence spread through the entire hall.
Everyone's eyes were now fixed on Kavya.
And Kavya—
Simply stood there quietly.
As if she still wanted to bury that truth deep inside herself.
So…
Would Kavya finally reveal everything today…?
Or would she take this secret to her grave?
What do you think will happen next?
