CHAPTER 72 : HOMELESS ( PART 1)
CHAPTER 72 : HOMELESS ( PART 1)
It was the day after Draco, Loukas, and Ronin had kicked their mates out of the castle.
Even though the day was beautiful, and the weather was perfect, the atmosphere was tense because
the girls were depressed.
Alyssa, Luna, and Juliet were gloomy as they ate breakfast, even though they just wanted to stay in
their room.
Jace and Alexander forced them to eat and leave the room since they were worried and didn't want the
girls to starve.
Today was the day Luna, Juliet, and Alyssa returned to their castle to retrieve their belongings, but they
were nervous.
Alyssa knew what she needed to get and how she would approach Loukas, but she also knew he
would never listen.
Despite how Alyssa felt on the inside, her calm expression said she could do it and was eager to talk to
Loukas.
Deep down, Alyssa was troubled and wished to return to the human world if she could.
Alyssa's mind was racing with the desire to forget everything about the vampire world, but she loved
Loukas so much that she couldn't do anything.
Juliet, unlike Alyssa, knew exactly what she wanted and how she was going to get it, so she was well
prepared. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
Juliet had planned and thought everything through, so she was ready to have a long conversation with
Ronin, but she also knew she needed to distance herself.
Though Luna was the polar opposite of Juliet, strange thoughts raced through her mind as she planned
and thought everything through.
Luna was unsettled and sad, but she tried her hardest to suppress her emotions and maintain her
poker face.
The room was quiet as she looked around at everyone eating breakfast and ignored them all as she
tried to calm down.
Luna was having a difficult time since she had turned into a vampire and was unable to control her
strength or transform back into a human.
Jace and Alexander tried everything they could to get Luna to change before breakfast, but nothing
worked.
“Are you ready, girls?” Alexander inquired as Jace hummed, adding, "We're going to the castle after we
finish breakfast," to which the girls nodded.
“I am prepared but nervous.” Alyssa spoke, while Luna nodded while she added, "I don't know what to
talk to Draco about," and Juliet said, "I am ready and prepared, I just hope Ronin listens to me," as
Alexander and Jace smiled.
They knew Alyssa, Juliet, and Luna must be worried and scared, but at the same time, they would be
happy to return home.
“Everything will be fine, just believe in yourself,” Alexander said, smiling as Juliet, Alyssa, and Luna
nodded happily.
Jace sighed, as he said, "After we return from the castle, we will help you transform back into your
human form."
“How are we going to do that?” Luna groaned as she paused for a moment before continuing, "We
have tried everything."
“Yes, but we will call Ruby and Maya,” Alexander said, looking at Jace, who smiled at him.
“What would they do?” Alyssa inquired, taking a sip from her cup of tea.
“Ruby is a witch, so she has a rough idea about everything,” Jace said, to which Luna replied, “That's
great because I feel weak,” as her body ached.
“Obviously you do, you haven't fully transformed yet,” Alexander said, frowning, while Luna sighed and
nodded.
“What happens if she doesn't return to her human form?” Juliet inquired as Jace exhaled deeply and
added, "She would die."
Luna felt bad, but she was also relieved, after all, she knew that if Draco did not accept her, she would
go insane and die because she was now a vampire.
They were all worried about what would happen next and what would happen if they went to the castle.
“Just keep in mind that no matter what happens, you cannot make your mates angry.” Jace cautioned
the girls, who became tense as they exchanged glances.
“What if they become enraged?” Alyssa inquired, perplexed, as Jace sighed and shook his head.
“Just hope they don't,” Jace said, pausing for a moment before adding, "Try to choose your words
wisely,” to which Alyssa nodded.
Juliet said, "Okay, I just hope this is all a game and planned." As Luna hummed and added, "We all
hope that, and we wish everything turns out well."
“If you girls are ready and done, let's go,” Jace said, while Juliet murmured, “Yeah, let's go.”
Alyssa, Juliet, Luna, and Alexander hurriedly followed Jace as he approached the car, the butler
opening the door for them.
They were all seated inside the limousine as the driver drove them back to the vampire castle.
The ride wasn't long, but it seemed long to the girls who were worried about what would happen next.
After some time, the driver parked the car as Jace, and Alexander turned around to smile at Alyssa,
Juliet, and Luna.
“Best of luck,” Alexander said as Jace added “We will meet you within one hour, so be careful,” as the
girls nodded.
Alyssa, Luna, and Juliet exited the limousine and walked towards the main gate, looking back one last
time.
The butler noticed Alyssa, Juliet, and Luna as they bowed slightly and shook their heads.
“Your highness, the kings have forbidden your entry,” one of the butlers said as Alyssa, Juliet, and Luna
returned their gaze to Jace and Alexander, who was still inside the car.
Luna said, "We know, but we can't go back home until we get our things." As the butler nodded.
“Let me go ask the kings, and we will report back shortly,” the butler said sadly, as Alyssa replied,
“Yeah sure,” as the butler walked away.
Alexander approached Alyssa, Luna, and Juliet as he stood with them, while the girls looked at him,
perplexed.
“Didn't Jace say you were supposed to stay with him?” Juliet inquired as Alexander shook his head and
replied, "I had to report everything to uncle and aunt."
“How come you didn't get out of the car with us?” Alyssa inquired as Alexander's face flushed red,
making Alyssa, Juliet, and Luna laugh because they knew Jace was having a sweet moment with
Alexander.
Luna smiled as she saw Alexander explain to Alyssa, with a red face, that Jace was warning him to be
careful as she mocked and teased him.
When she saw Draco approaching her with Loukas and Ronin by his side, the smile on Luna's face
turned into a frown.
Luna noticed Juliet and Alyssa had stopped laughing as Juliet stood behind Alexander, holding his
hand.
“What are you doing over here, girls?” Loukas inquired angrily, adding, "I remember we kicked you out
of this castle."
Luna took deep breaths as she tried to remain calm, while Juliet hid behind Alexander and Alyssa held
Luna's hand.
“W-We're just here to get our things so we can go back,” Alyssa said, looking up as her gaze met
Loukas's, who hummed as he looked at Alexander, who smiled.
“What are you doing over here, little buddy?” Draco inquired, to which Alexander replied, “I came to
meet uncle and aunt because Jace and I need to tell them about our decision.”
“What decision and where is Jace?” Ronin inquired as Alyssa, Juliet, and Luna cast puzzled glances at
Alexander, who only smiled shyly.
Alexander responded, "J-Jace and I are thinking of adopting a b-baby, so we needed a-approval from
your parents as well, and he went to tell our parents." As Draco, Loukas, and Ronin's eyes widened.
Draco, Loukas, and Ronin moved aside to allow them all in, while Alexander smiled at the girls who
giggled, knowing it was all part of the plan since they knew Alexander still wasn’t ready for all this.
“You guys can go with the girls,” Alexander said, adding, “I will meet uncle and aunt alone,” as the boys
nodded, and Alexander walked away.
Draco led Luna to their room, leaving Juliet with Ronin, while Loukas walked to his room with Alyssa.
“Let's go and do this quickly,” Ronin said as Juliet nodded and said, “I promise I won't take that long,”
Ronin hummed.
They walked towards the room, Juliet staring at Ronin, who was leading the way.
Juliet entered her room and went into her walk-in closet, where she grabbed a bag and quickly
unzipped it.
Ronin exited the room as he sat on the bed, waiting for Juliet to quickly pack.
Juliet's face told everyone that she was about to cry, but she held it together.
Juliet recalled how she needed to speak with Ronin, but for the time being, she focused on packing.
Juliet walked out of the walk-in-wardrobe as she had finished packing.
“I took whatever I needed,” Juliet said quietly as her gaze fell on Ronin, who was staring at the wall.
Juliet noticed Ronin lost in thought, which made her want to hug him, but she restrained herself.
Even though Juliet despised Ronin for what he had done, she didn't want to leave him when she
noticed Ronin's eyes soften and he seemed distant.
‘Only a vampire can love you forever.' Juliet reminded herself as she took a cautious step towards
Ronin.
Juliet only whispered “Ronie” as he looked at her, his expression suddenly changing as he stared at
her angrily.
"I just finished packing," Juliet said, looking down and staring at her foot as Ronin asked, "OK, anything
else you need?" Juliet nodded.
Juliet suspected something was wrong and that it was all a big lie, but given Ronin's behavior, she had
no choice but to believe Ronin was no longer hers.
“What exactly do you want?” Ronin asked Juliet who questioned "Can I p-please chat for you just for a
while?" as Ronin sighed.
Ronin didn't say anything, so Juliet now knew it wasn't a dream or a lie, but she refused to believe
Ronin hated her.
“Since you're going to leave soon anyway, just tell me what you want to say?” Ronin said this as he
noticed Juliet's sad expression, which hurt him.
“D-Do you really believe no one when they say I'm your mate?” Juliet stuttered out as she stared at
Ronin, who sighed and replied, "I don't know what you're talking about," to which Juliet mumbled, "O-
Oh, that's okay."
Ronin sighed and said, "Well, I heard from the butlers that you are my mate," as Juliet quickly glanced
at him and replied, "Yeah, we are mates," as Ronin smiled and patted the space next to him.
“I heard from many people, so I apologize for scaring you and speaking harshly with you the other day,”
Ronin said as Juliet smiled and stuttered out “That's o-okay.”
Juliet was well aware that Ronin did not accept her, but she was relieved that Ronin apologized for
speaking harshly.
“I'm only telling you this because you were in the same orphanage as me when we were kids, and
you're a nice girl,” Ronin said, as Juliet quickly nodded.
“Yeah, you came to that orphanage because you couldn't feel your vampire symptoms, so your parents
sent you to the human world until you did,” Juliet said as she sighed and fiddled with her thumb.
“I apologize for everything, but you are not my mate.” Juliet sighed and inquired, "How can you be so
sure?" Juliet tiled her head, perplexed, while Ronin responded, "I don't feel any connections with you."
Juliet inquired, "What kind of connections?" Ronin replied, "um connections like attraction towards you"
as he paused for a moment to think before adding, "Also, if you were my mate, I wouldn't be able to
sleep unless you were beside me" Juliet nodded.
“Were you able to sleep?” Juliet inquired as Ronin coughed as he replied, "Yeah, I slept well," as he
averted his gaze.
“Did you get enough sleep?” Ronin inquired as Juliet sighed and spoke, "No..." before abruptly
stopping and quickly responding, "No, I mean yes, I slept well," as Ronin laughed.
Juliet inquired, "So, you have no mate?" Ronin sadly replied, "Yeah, I have no mate," while staring at
Juliet.
“Are you going to pick a mate?” Juliet inquired as Ronin shook his head and replied, "Yeah, my
girlfriend is my mate," as Juliet tried not to cry while mumbling, "That's nice."
“You are a nice girl, and I know how you were, so let's not get angry at each other,” Ronin said as Juliet
sadly laughed, replying, “I never got angry; it was you who got angry,” as Ronin frowned.
Ronin said, "I get angry whenever you say you're my mate," as Juliet sighed and replied, "I'm sorry."
“There is no need to apologize, so just know that I am not your mate,” Ronin said as Juliet hummed
and mumbled, “Okay, I will keep that in mind,” Ronin smiled.
Juliet and Ronin sat next to each other in silence while Juliet tried her best not to cry.
‘I have inspected the dungeon and am now sitting inside the limousine, so you can come back' Juliet
heard Jace's voice echo in her head as she stood up.
“It's great to talk to you again, but I hope we can finish whatever was between us,” Juliet said sternly,
pretending to smile as Ronin stuttered out “Y-Yeah? I guess we can.”
Juliet said, “Great because I asked Jace to introduce me to some wolves who don't have mates,” as
Ronin stood up and yelled, “WHAT? WHY?”
“Because I'm a vampire now and can't return to the human world, I'll live a peaceful life with a wolf,”
Juliet replied, smiling as she shrugged her shoulder.
“Why with a wolf and not a vampire?” Ronin was irritated as Juliet responded, "Because wolves are
cute, and vampires are not," rolling her eyes.
As Juliet sighed, Ronin said, "You are a vampire, so be with a vampire." Juliet replied, "I can decide
things on my own, and I have been pushed away by a vampire, so I want to be a wolf's mate."
Juliet looked at Ronin, who had a sad expression on his face as she smiled, knowing deep down that
Ronin still liked her.
“It's up to you,” Ronin said, as Juliet hummed and replied, “I have to go now,” as Ronin stuttered, “Y-
Yeah sure.”
Ronin grabbed three trolley bags and Juliet grabbed two while they walked out towards the main gate.
The butler took the bags and placed them inside the other car as Juliet smiled at Ronin.
Juliet whispered “Bye” as Ronin replied “Yeah bye” as he walked back towards the castle while Juliet
sighed knowing very well that she was now in a way homeless.
Juliet sighed as she sat inside the limousine, as her gaze was drawn to Jace, who smiled at her.
“You did well,” Jace said as he watched Ronin walk away with a sad expression on his face, to which
Juliet replied, “Thank you,” as Jace hummed.
Jace and Juliet were now waiting for Alexander, Alyssa, and Luna, who were still in the
castle.
