Ivy Bennett,a 22year old girl born with a heart disease is told that she has less than six months to live. She feels sad about her boring and painful life and wishes she lives a more adventurous life. She meets Ishmael, a vampire who has lived for a millenial and has come to see life as boring. Ishmael takes interest in Ivy. Will a love story bloom?
She felt it, her world, it was crumbling.
He shoulder felt like it carried the
weight of a million heavy trucks. She
gasped for breath, the little life she
had in her seemed to have left her in
a heartbeat.
Ivy knew this day would come, little
did she know it would come this soon
. She was only twenty two for
Goodness sake! Why won't those who
lived among the heavens allow her
stay a little bit longer?
"Ivy? Are you okay?" Doctor Saraphina called after noticing she had blanked
out for quite a while.
Ivy didn't even hear that her name was
called. All that went on in her head
was how miserable she was and how
she never even got to live life as she
wanted.
She was born with a heart disease,
this meant being in out out of hospital
buildings for majority of her life up
until this moment. I mean here she
was sitting in front of a doctor after
receiving the worst news anyone
could ever receive.
About a week ago, she had one of
those fainting spells and was rushed
to the hospital by her worried sick
parents. The doctor had carried out
some tests and she had only come
here today to get the test results
when the doctor decided to drop the
bombshell on her.
The doctor had just told Ivy that time
was no longer on her side Dr
Saraphina had sounded so sorry and
she wished she wasn't the one to have
given Ivy the news. She had been Ivy's
doctor since she was little. Telling the
poor girl that she had just six months left to live felt like a severe
punishment on her part. Little wonder
Ivy blanked out after hearing the news
"Ivy?" Doctor Saraphina called again,
this time loud enough to bring Ivy out
if her reverie.
"Ye...yess?" She responded..her voice
shaky like she was struggling to hold
back tears.
"Are you okay?" The worried doctor
asked. She felt like it was her fault.
She shouldn't have told Ivy without
anyone else around.. She had thought Ivy would prefer to find out personally
and in private.
"I'm fine, it's okay... Not like it's the end
of the world. 6 months is a very
longggg time"
She knew she sounded like she was
trying to give herself false hope but
that was all it was actually. Not like
she could change her fate in some
way, or could she?
She wiped the tear that was falling
down her left cheek. "Doctor, I need
this to stay between me and you"
The last thing Ivy wanted was for her parents to find out or anyone for that
matter. She had lived most of her life
receiving special attention and being
treated like an egg. She knew that
attention would triple should they find
out her condition. She also didn't want
them to feel bad just yet. She knew
her mother would pretty much blame
herself if Ivy eventually dies.
Saraphina nods in agreement, she had
no idea what the right words to say in
situations like this even after about
thirty years of practice. There were
simply no right words.
During the walk to the bus stop from the hospital. One step felt like a
month to Ivy. She felt like time would
suddenly start running really fast and
then it would be six months in the
blink on an eye and then, every atom of
life that she had in her would
suddenly disappear and then she
would close those deep blue eyes of
hers never to open them again and
That should be it. THE END OF IVY
BENNETT'S BORING AND PAINFUL
LIFE.
She was brought out of her nightmare
by the sound of a car honk, she
looked up to see that she had almost been hit by a car. The thought of even
dying before those six months were
completed gave her chills. She was
thankful that the car had stopped just
before hitting her.
She looked around to see that she
had pulled quite a crowd, they all
gathered to see what was wrong with
the lady that was walking freely in the
middle of a busy road.
The car that almost hit her was a
Tesla car, latest edition. The owner
was obviously a billionaire to be able
to afford a car like this. Whispers
about who owned the car could be heard among the crowd.
Suddenly there was a moment of
silence as people watched the owner
of the car. The expected
some big shot of A list Celebrity of
some sort but were disappointed to
see some old man who looked weak
to the bones.
Most of them hissed and left the
scene.
The old man gradually walked to
where Ivy had fallen and bent to speak
to her.
Ivy could here the crowd murmur about how an old man like this could
be driving such an expensive car.
What confused her was where this
people saw an old man. The man coming out of the car was breathtaking.
He could beat Omar Al bokar hands
down on the runway. Even Zayn Malik
didn't stand a chance. His beauty was
otherworldly. Every step he took
oozed royalty and so where the fuck did this people see and old man?
The man bent over to talk to her as
she had felt lazy to stand from the
road where she fell. She smelt his
perfume and it reminded her of the jungle, in a good way..she wondered
what brand he was wearing.
"I know you're not hurt but here's my
card, call me if you need anything"
The handsome young man said to her
and made to stand up but she held his
shirt's sleeve.
"Why do they think you're an old man?
You're so young and damn hot"
She said, lost in the beauty of his eyes
. They weren't brown or hazel. Ivy
knew gold and this young man's eyes
were truly golden. 'he's a god!' she
screamed in her head. Ishmael looked at the rather frail lady
laying on the floor and drooling at his
beauty.
'No one was able to see through his
false appearance. It had never
happened'
It surprised him how this lady saw
through the old man appearance he
put out.
He knew he needed to engage this
woman in a conversation.
Ignoring the stares from people
watching, he bent over and carried
her bridal style. He took her in his car and drove off with her sitting beside
him....
He stole glances at her every once in
a while. He even tried to read her
mind to see what she was thinking.
Nothing....
How's that possible? He was going
crazy.
She was a world-renowned divine doctor, the CEO of a publicly traded company, the most formidable female mercenary, and a top-tier tech genius.

Upon the revelation of her concealed identities, her ex-fiance was left stunned and desperately pleaded for her forgiveness. Standing protectively before Marissa, an incredibly influential and fearsome magnate declared, "This is my wife. Who would dare try to claim her?"
"You're mine, little puppy," Kylan growled against my neck. A soft gasp escaped my lips as his lips brushed my skin. My mind screamed at me to push him away-the Lycan Prince who had humiliated me again and again, but my body betrayed me, leaning into him before I could stop myself. He pressed his lips against mine, and his kiss grew more aggressive, more possessive as I felt my legs weaken. What was I doing? In a split-second, I pulled away and slapped him hard across the face. Kylan's eyes darkened, but the smirk on his lips exposed his amusement. "You and I both know we can't fight this, Violet," he said, gripping my wrist. "You're my mate." "And yet you don't want me," I replied. "You told me you were ashamed of me, that l'd never be your queen, that you'd never love me. So please, accept my rejection and let me go." "Never," he whispered, his grip tightening as he pulled me closer. "Soon enough, you'll be begging for me. and when you do-I'll use you as I see fit and then I'll reject you."
