Chapter 4

Same Time, Same Place

  Edmond sat back in his carriage; a very uncomfortable ride. Every little bump that the carriage hit would send him up a foot in the air and to make matters worse he had a headache. He should really talk to Fernando about investing in some streets to his house.

  Shifting back on the seat, Edmond glanced out the window. Another day had gone by without seeing her, without being able to touch her. Every night it became harder to sleep and when he did she plagued his dreams. Early in the morning though, before the sun came up he would lie in bed and would find her mentally. She was always so bright in his mind, so constant, so beautiful. That would usually give him a moment's peace but would flee as quickly as it came.

  Life was cruel, that was for sure. He had looked for her for so long. Ever since that witch had told him about her but he never thought she would be handed to him in the form of his business partner's wife.

  He had thought it was such irony when he had first seen her walking down the aisle. He had heard about her plenty, Fernando's human wife. It had caused such uproar in the Night world community, but mostly the angry families that had hoped Fernando would have married their daughters and increased their income. When he saw her though, she had taken the breath from him. He recognized her as his, and she recognized him too. It had been there moment; those few precious seconds had belonged to them only to be ripped away when the priest started the ceremony. 

  All his life, everything had been given to Edmond on a shiny silver platter. His family raised him with the best, he was after all their only male heir and they had made sure he had known that. He went to the best schools, worn the best clothes, had the best women and now the one thing that should have belonged to him was just out of his reach, Emma. The irony of it all still killed him. Now he had been reduced to making up excuses to visit Fernando more often just to glimpse her in the halls.

  Fernando would never suspect a thing unless he directly walked in on them kissing. Fernando was smart, just not in the right areas but still the risk was always there. He could tell this distressed Emma the most, she was true to her promises and she had made a huge one to Fernando when she had married him and Edmond always knew that would be between them.

 It had been a week since the party, a week since they had officially found out about each other and Edmond could feel the bond growing stronger. But something always stood between them and Edmond knew that would always happen unless he took her away from Fernando.

 Sighing, Edmond looked out the glass window. Everything looked so bleak including him, maybe it was just being away from Emma but it was really starting to get to him.

This soul mate bond was trickier than what he thought it was going to be. He had heard stories about it, the feelings he would feel for his soul mate. The constant longing to be near that person but he didn't think it would be this bad. Even Fernando has asked him if he had fallen ill, even though it was near impossible for a vampire to be sick.

  Shifting in his seat, Edmond could see the top of Fernando's house on the hill; it was a huge estate which proved to be a good thing for Emma and him to accidentally bump into each other. She was still nervous about everything, especially the apart about him being a vampire. It had taken a much longer conversation the next day to get her to understand everything but even still Edmond could tell she was still on edge.

  Emma, he thought as her face flashed in his mind and he felt that same ache. His longing for her became worse everyday and his heartache greater. The soul mate bond had grown so strong in such a short time. It had surprised Edmond at first when he would see Emma and feel the bond pulling him towards her. It became stronger everyday after.

   Edmond watched as the carriage went through the massive iron gates with a giant D initial on it. Fernando's prescience was everywhere and Edmond knew he would have to plaster on his face very soon. He would have to go through seeing Emma with Fernando and that ring on her finger that showed that she didn't belong to him. He hated every minute of it. Even if she could get away from him no one in America would give her a divorce from him. Only men could do that to their wives who didn't supply a proper heir and the night world would never accept her, not with Fernando as an Ex husband. Both their societies rules were against them and Edmond hated them for that.

 As he glanced out the window, he could see Fernando waiting at the door for him. Anger immediately swelled in him one more time before he was able to subdue it. He had to act like the dear friend to the man he despised most only so he could glance at his beloved in the hallways. Edmond quickly straightened up his jacket and hair before the door was opened. Fernando stood there with his giant grin and Edmond plastered on his as the soul mate link flared to life.
