My Billionaire Vampire Mate

I'll forever protect you

Amelia was eagerly waiting for her husband to come back home. She hoped that he would have good news for her. She had faith in her husband that he would make things right—and he always did. He had never failed to impress her no matter how bad he had messed up in the past. 

Ivy on the other hand was so much worried about her public image. The news about her company spread like wildfire around the city and a lot of them had asked her about her well-being. Even though the people didn't actually mock her, Ivy was very much embarrassed by the current situation. Already her birthday was ruined and now her whole life is going to be ruined soon. 

Ivy had only one person to blame for that and it was none other than the mystery man who ruined her birthday. Ever since she saw him, her perfect life became hell. She wanted to hunt that man and slap him hard on his face until she got satisfied. She took out her phone and googled his name. Her body burned when his face appeared on her screen. 

She couldn't deny that he is a handsome guy. He looked perfect with his dense black hair and perfect jawline. How nice it would be to slap this face hard?! At that moment, she heard her father's car approaching the garage outside. She immediately ran downstairs to hear what news her father had. She felt strange that she was even taking interest in her parents' business. So far, she never cared about her parent's business at all. 

….

As soon as Oliver got inside his house, his daughter and his wife were waiting for him in the living room. They were eager to know how the deal went. But he can't say anything to them. They can't know everything that happened! He reminded himself that it was for the best. 

"I managed to redeem my company," Oliver said to them. Both of their faces were lit up with happiness and relief. But he was pained to see the smile on his daughter's face. He knew that it was not going to last. Very soon she will be taken away from here. He was still not mentally prepared for that. She was his little princess after all! 

Oliver knew that one day his daughter would grow up and leave him. But he didn't imagine it would happen this way. He thought that she would date a man first and then announce her wedding to the world. And after that, she was supposed to move out of the house and live her new life. It stabbed his heart to think about what was going to happen next. 

Amelia came and hugged Oliver. She patted his hair and whispered in his ear, "I knew that you can fix everything—"

Oliver wanted to cry and confess everything that he did before he came here. He wanted to tell her that he had sold their beloved daughter for money. But he can't just say that to her. She would rather go to prison instead of giving up her daughter in a deal. But he can't let her go to prison. And also Tristan had promised to not hurt their daughter. So nothing bad is going to happen to her. 

Still, Amelia won't agree to this deal. That is the beauty of the mother's love. They always think with their hearts instead of doing what is the best. But fathers are different. They think with their brain and they will have to do everything to protect their family. 

With a heavy heart, Oliver looked at his daughter who smiled at him and went back up to her room. 

………

Ivy was so relieved that she even forgot about her ruined birthday. Their family is not going to be broke. She can stay rich and keep on being the Queen Bee of the Upper Eastside. Now it seemed like time for the party to her. She immediately called up her friends and they all decided to meet up in the club. 

This time she is not going to let them stop giving attention to her. If this party is successful, then she can compensate for the ruined birthday party. 'It is time to redeem my year too,' she thought and put on a baby pink colored sleeveless short gown. 

She went to her car and ordered her chauffeur to take her to the club. Ivy hoped that she wouldn't run into that man again. Or else all of her peace would be ruined. She didn't want another failed party! When she was on the way to the club, she realized that she should probably go to a different club. Chances are high that he would come there again! 

Just when she was about to instruct her chauffeur to drive to another club, the chauffeur suddenly hit the brakes and got out of the car. 

"Hey, where are you going?" she yelled at him. But he walked away as if he didn't hear her at all.

"What is wrong with you?" she yelled at the man and leaned behind her seat. 

Then suddenly the car door to her side opened and she saw the man whom she dreaded to not ever see again. He lent out his hand to her and gave her a devilish smile, "Come to me, barbie girl! I will show you what a real party is—"

Ivy had a lot of questions in her mind. How did he come here? And what the hell is wrong with him?! He seems like a creep. She immediately took out her phone from her Chanel red purse and tried to call the cops. 

Tristan immediately grabbed the phone from her hand and pulled her out of her car. Ivy didn't expect that move. The high heels that she was wearing made her stumble on her feet and she was about to fall face flat on the road. 

But Tristan caught her tiny waist and saved her from the fall. "I will not let anything happen to you Barbie girl! I'll forever love and protect you—"
