The Bored Immortal

Erina slowly shook her head with a sigh, "We have already talked about this, Eli, and you know that if you turn him, he will simply die, especially because he is of werewolf bloodline as well."

"But he has his mother's bloodline as well! So it should work!" Eli said in a tone of certainty.

"Then that only makes things impossible since the blood of a vampire and werewolf can never mix. They are opposites in every sense and would just try to devour each other, just like what we see in our daily life. Why do you think we have such a long enmity with them and endless wars? We weren't made to coexist together. We are a bane to each other...but this boy just happened to be an anomaly which even I couldn't understand," Erina said while dropping a single drop of herbal liquid into Azu's mouth.

"You already said his situation is not looking hopeful. So I have to try my best!" Eli said with clenched fists.

"I understand you are worried about your friend...but if your father or any one of our people knew about you trying to turn someone like him into one of us, it wouldn't bode well with you two, especially since you know how immensely incensed your father will be. I know you want to help him by giving him your Origin Blood which is something you can only do once in a lifetime and something supposed to be saved for your future husband. Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to bear a child with your future husband and your father might do something unexpected out of anger."

"I don't care. I don't want to marry anyone my father wants to. Even if he is my father, I won't let him touch Azu. I won't believe his hostility towards the werewolves is greater than his love for me. But for now, I am going to try what I always wanted to do."

Eli lowered her head towards Azu, but Erina suddenly stopped him, "Wait! Fine...If you are so adamant about doing this, then I won't stop you. But...if you are going to do it, then you may as well do it right if you want better chances of him coming out of this alive."

Eli's eyes lit up immediately as she grabbed Erina's hands, "Really, grandmother? You know a way to increase the chance of success? Tell me, tell me!"

Erina let out a heavy sigh and said, "Hold on...I didn't finish yet. What I am about to say is our family secret that has been guarded closely since the inception of our bloodline by our forefathers. Not even I have an exact idea of how many years we have been guarding it or the profound secret behind it. And once you set out on this, then you may as well incur the wrath of every vampire of our kingdom, especially your father. You could become a public enemy or, worse, a traitor. By the laws of our kingdom, you can even be executed despite your status. So, do you really want to listen to what I have to say? No matter what, I only want you to be happy since you are my most precious granddaughter even if that means I have to say something that could put you in danger. However, you are old enough now to make your own choice. I just don't want you to regret anything in the future."

Eli's lips parted in surprise, not expecting there to be such serious repercussions over this family secret.

However, even without hearing what she exactly had to do, Eli had already decided to do whatever it took as she said, "It's fine. Even if I become a traitor to everyone else, it doesn't matter as long as Azu is alive and well. So can you please tell me, grandmother?"

"Come...follow me," Erina said as she got up and gestured to Eli to follow her.

Eli looked at Azu before getting up and following her outside.

Azu was resting with his eyes closed, but he still heard everything and was inwardly mumbling, "No...Eli...don't do it…"

Viktor, who was hearing his thoughts and the conversation between Eli and her grandmother, couldn't help but be confused with whatever was going on.

'Wait...could this really be my memories and not just some dream?' Viktor always had this thought in the back of his mind the moment he had dreams like this for the first time just recently.

And now witnessing it again, he couldn't help but think that the things he were seeing were too real to be a dream since he could feel everything Azu was feeling and even hear his thoughts.

Most of all, it was as if he himself was Azu, making him even confused about his own identity at times. He could feel the same intense emotions Azu was feeling, especially when he was near Eli, making Viktor try and remember hard if he ever met such a girl, especially another vampire in his long life.

But he was sure that until recently, he never met any other supernatural beings or events strangely enough and felt that this had something to do with his missing memories.

However, suddenly a slender figure slipped inside the pavilion, and Azu felt a soft hand touching his forehead as he heard a gentle yet mellow voice of a girl, "Azu...Are you okay? I am sorry...I never knew…..How can I-I even fix this..." The girl hardly was able to finish her words as stifled sobs continued to escape from her throat while Azu, who was feeling a little better from Erina's treatment, opened his eyes a bit to see the girl.

However, his vision was blurry, though, Viktor was able to make out her hourglass figure, especially her voluptuous bust, her long black hair but the most enchanting feature about her was her radiant blue eyes, which made Viktor wonder if this was the werewolf girl since he could sense the subtle emotions Azu was feeling upon hearing the voice of this girl.

He guessed that this girl should be around the age of Azu and Eli.

'How did a guy like him have two beauties surrounding him?' Viktor had this burning question in mind, especially when he felt that this boy was too innocent and naive for his own good.

Azu seemed as if he knew this girl as he slowly tightened his grip around her hand to feebly mumble, "I...It's...fine...Tara…"

"You! What are you doing near him?!" Eli fumed as she suddenly stepped in and saw Tara sitting beside Azu.
