BLOOD BOUND: THE HAWTHORNE'S FALL ( Book 1)

🗡III. Bonvich journey🗡

*Bonvich and Deane above*

In different path. Bonvich is the second child of Dracula. Carrying the power and blood of a Hawthorne, he also has to choose one to be his wife and live as a Prince. But he refuse to acknowledge that. He left his throne and choose a different path. Far from who he is.

Silently, he is not also a fan of his father's type of government na ngayon ay sinunod ni Ambrogio V, but in a modified way. A more cruel way of leadership.

One night, Bonvich secretly sneak out from the palace but he was caught by Ambrogio V.

"Where are you going, brother?", tanong ni Ambrogio V.

"I'm leaving to find my own destiny, brother", sagot ni Bonvich sa kapatid at umambang tatalikod na sana but Ambrogio V stopped him from walking away.

"I'm not gonna hold you back. But, where are you going?", tanong nito.

Umiling si Bonvich. Hindi na gustong sagutin pa ang naging tanong ni Ambrogio V. Kalaunan ay hinayaan naman siya nitong umalis.

Kakatapos lang din ng party noong nakaraang araw para sa pagkilala kay Ambrogio V bilang bagong hari.

He went to east. Sa paglalakabay niya ay marami siyang nakakasalubong nga mga death dealers galing sa kanilang palasyo.

"Good evening, Prince Bonvich", bati ng bawat nakakasalubong niya.

He just nodded and continue his way. Bonvich is a kind of vampire who also wants to rule the kingdom. He envy his brother so much for being the first born. Pero hindi naman siya ganoon ka gahaman sa kapangyarihan para bawiin sa kung sino ang tunay na nagmamay-ari nito. He always wants fair judgment. He wants equal rights. That's what he wants but the Hawthorne are so cruel of powers and fame. Kaya napagpasyahan niyang kalimutan kong saan talaga siya nanggaling and to live only what's ahead of him.

Sa layo ng nilakbay niya ay nakarating siya sa isang mataong lugar. He can smell the air. They are all humans.

Bumaba siya sa bundok para magtungo doon. Ng makalapit na ay nanoot sa kanyang ilong ang amoy ng masasarap na pagkain ng mga tao. He's not familiar with it pero kahit paano ay natatakam siya dito. He's hungry from his long journey kaya natigil siya sa isang tindahan.

"What's this?", sabay turo niya sa pagkain na naroon.

Sinagot naman siya ng nagbabantay at pinaghainan nito.

At first, he was hesitant to taste it pero ng natikman na niya ay ginaganahan siyang kumain. After eating. Kaagad siyang tumayo at umambang aalis na sana.

"Hoy! Hoy! Lalaki, iyong bayad mo sa paninda ko!", sigaw ng tindera sa kanya.

Kaagad siyang napalingon sa babae. Nakakunot ang noo.

"B-Bayad? What's that?", tanong nito.

Pinakitaan siya ng babae ng barya para ipakita na ito ang tinutukoy nito.

"Wala akong ganoon", sabi nito.

"Anong wala? Hindi pwedeng wala kang bayad. Hindi ka pwedeng umalis", sabi nito at hinila si Bonvich pabalik sa loob.

"Manang, ano po iyan?", isang magandang babae ang dumating sa kinaroroonan ni Bonvich.

"Itong isang kostumer ko hindi makapagbayad, Luna", sabi ng matanda.

"Ako na po ang magbabayad, Manang. Pabili na rin ng dalawang supot ng tinapay", sabi ng babae.

"Masusunod po, Luna", bahagyang yumuko ang matanda at kaagad na tinugon ang sinabi ng babae.

"Thank you, very much, Luna", sabi ni Bonvich.

Mahinhin na tumawa ang babae. "My name is Deane", pakilala nito.

"Why are they calling you Luna, Deane?", tanong ni Bonvich.

Bago pa masagot ni Deane ang tanong ni Bonvich ay naibigay na ang tinapay na binili ni Deane. She give the other one to Bonvich.

"Thank you".

"I see you're new here. Where are you from?", tanong nito.

Bonvich trailed off. "Far from here", sagot nito.

Deane brows furrowed. "What's your name? I'm Deane Grahams", pakilala nito.

"I'm Bonvich Balkan", pakilala niya. He's actually Bonvich Hawthorne, pero sa kadahilanan na ayaw niyang bitbitin ang pangalang iyon ay iyong sa ibang kapamilya niya ang kanyang ginamit.

"I can see you're a vampire. Balkans are well-known", sabi ni Deane. "I'm also a werewolf of you don't notice. I'm a Luna of Moon Blazingfire, the heir of the throne and now became the queen which we call Luna", sabi ni Deane.

Nanlaki ang mga mata ni Bonvich. Deane smile. Kaagad na inipit sa likod ng kanyang tenga ang takas na buhok sa kanyang mukha.

"I can see. I smell you", seryosong sabi ni Bonvich. "Sweet strawberry", he added.

"It is because you're my mate", Deane giggled. "If you don't know, it's our way of calling our other half. The one who's destined for us".

Bonvich smiled at Deane. At the first sight, he's attracted to her. Ganoon din ang kanyang naramdaman ng makita ang dalaga kanina. She smell like sweet strawberry. His heart pounded so fast. It is the moment he knew that he found her. He found his the one.

"We call it beloved in our kind", sabi ni Bonvich.

The two spend time together until the evening.

"I need to go", sabi ni Deane.

"Okay. Let's just see each other tomorrow. I'll be just.........here", sabi ni Bonvich na parang wala namang ibang mapuntahan.

"Uhmm....you can come with me, though. We have plenty of rooms for you", Deane said with a smile in her face.

Bonvich didn't refuse. There's no way he's gonna let this opportunity to slip away. He also wants to be with his beloved.

Magkasabay ang dalawa pabalik sa Moon BlazingFire castle.

"Good evening, Luna", bati ng mga naroon.

Deane greeted them back. Pinakilala niya si Bonvich sa mga naroon.

"Anak, where have you been? It was already dark outside and you're alone....oh!", sabi ng matandang babae na kaagad yumakap kay Deane. "Who is he?", tanong nito sa anak.

"Mom, this is Bonvich Balkan", Deane smile. "Mom, he's my mate".

Nanlaki ang mga mata ng ina ni Deane.

"Oh! Really? You found him?", tila masayang-masaya ang matanda. "Welcome home, Son. Welcome", the old woman giggled. "Tomorrow morning, we'll going to announce your marriage to the pack. The long wait is over. The Princess will finally be the official Luna of the MoonBlazingFire pack".
