He Captured my Heart Chapter 1 Relax the Dracula 1

- Relax the Dracula 1

I sat relaxed on the sand, listening to the sound that the waves made while crashing against each other. The wind is blowing in my face, making my hair dance to its tunes, the sun gradually receding into the waters, and the sky changing its color from orange-yellow to flamboyant pink.

I stared into the water mindlessly only to see a Greek God surfing on the waters effortlessly making my heart skip a beat with his

He came out of the water in slow motion, his face away from the light. I stood up yearning for a single glimpse of his face. All I could make out was his sharp features and perfect muscular body.

He noticed me and walked towards me, even though I couldn't see his face I could feel him smile at me. I gasped looking at his face.

"Cyrus!" I let out a breath.

"I love you and I want to marry you," I confessed looking at his piercing blue eyes.

"Me Cyrus Lawrence, fell in love with you the second my eyes landed on you. I hope that you will agree to spend every minute of your life with me for the rest of our lives. Will you marry me?" He asked me to pull out a seashell with a hole in it.

I let the happy tears out of my face and breathed out a...

"Vicky, wake up, you don't want to be late for school." My mother yelled entering my room. I groggily opened my eyes and checked the surroundings.

Dracula with eyes spitting fire √

"Let me sleep Mama " I mumbled while still trying to accept reality. She opened the curtains to let sunlight pour into the room. I closed my eyes and pulled the blanket over my head.

"Please close the drapes mama. Just 5 more minutes." I said turning to sleep on my stomach and hiding my face in my pillow just hoping I could continue my dream.

But, the Dracula she is just pulled my blanket away resulting in me landing first on my buttocks.

"You are already late. I told you last night to stop watching FRIENDS and go to sleep. Come on, wake up. I'm going back to the kitchen. I don't want to come again to wake you up. If you are going to be late then it's not my fault." Saying mama left the room leaving my sore ass on the floor.

I stood up slowly and sighed. If I was lucky, maybe he would visit me again in my dreams and we could continue our confession.

After finishing my morning routine, I stepped out of the bathroom wrapped in a baby pink towel and walked into the walk-in closet wondering what to wear on my 1st day of school. I just picked a yellow top with a floral design and paired it with white shorts and sneakers rushing downstairs with my bag to the dining room.

"Good morning Dad." I chirped seeing my Dad at the breakfast table.

"Good morning Princess," Dad replied flashing a smile while having his breakfast roti and paneer curry (Indian bread and cottage cheese curry)

Oh yes, my mom prepares the best Indian Food. Mama came to California for her higher studies and fell in love with my Dad whom she met at the university. Well, they decided to get married, but her family never agreed as my Dad is from The States and they could never accept an American as their son-in-law.

Mama tried to persuade them but seeing them fix her marriage with someone else she left everything behind and came back to California.

Long story short my parents got married, but my mama lost her family and decided to cut all ties with her for bringing shame to the family. She still misses them. She wants to show them that she did choose the right guy. She wants me to meet them someday and bond with them.

"Dad, I just dreamed about Cyrus. He declared his love for me and asked me to marry him."

"Didn't you dream of a similar thing with Ivan Styles last week?" Dad cocked his eyebrow at me teasing a smile.

Before I could retort, that this time it felt so real. Dracula shouted from the kitchen.

"Why are you dreaming about useless things when you should be concentrating on your studies?"

I rolled my eyes in response and my dad blew a kiss my way to pacify me.

"Dad, I'm gonna ask you for a gift for my birthday, and you can't say no okay?" I whispered to him while nibbling my roti so that Dracula couldn't listen.

Usually, my appetite doubles after seeing the Indian food on the table but today because of the current state of my mind I'm not hungry.

"Name it and you will have it. Do you want to meet Cyrus or that Ivan guy?"

"If only it was that simple... this year for my birthday, I was hoping to go to the amusement park with Alice and Helix. I don't want any gifts or parties. I'm not a kid to have a birthday party."

Anyway, I got my face smashed into the cake just after cutting it by a monster so I would like to pass it this time.

"Yeah okay, it's your birthday after all. As you wish."

I smiled at him but I knew I hadn't passed the real hurdle which was in the front.

"No Rob, you can't allow them, they are still kids.. what if they run into some trouble or get lost or worse someone kidnaps them?" Mama came from the kitchen with more rotis on the plate. Oh here comes Dracula. Always on time as expected.

"Oh come on mama, I'm not alone Helix and Alice are also coming and we are not kids I'm turning 14 remember?" I tried to reply to her calmly but my voice just sounded irritated.

"Okay, then I will come with you guys. You know how worried I get if you kids are alone" My mom said, placing one more roti on my plate.

"No way, I'm not letting you accompany us, there is no need to babysit, and we're not kids," I whined and pinched my Dad on the thigh hoping he would help me.

But he just apologized and I couldn't help looking.

"Dad, please help me out here, Please Dad, please please" I requested him showing my puppy dog eyes which I know will work for sure.

Six years ago, I was a naive girl sold by my father to the powerful Sanders estate, only to be tossed onto the streets after a brutal assault they labeled "marital infidelity." I fled the country pregnant and broken, hiding from the shadow of a husband I had never even met. Now, I’ve returned to New York with my triplets to sign the final divorce papers and disappear forever. But Archibald Sanders—the man I was told was a crippled recluse—intercepted us with the cold precision of a predator. He didn't see the woman his family destroyed; he saw a gold-digger who had shamed his name. His security team hunted us to a grimy motel, using tactical force to snatch my children away and drag me to his glass-walled empire. In his office, he loomed over me, demanding a DNA test and threatening to throw me in prison while my babies were lost to the foster system. He was convinced I’d cheated, yet he stared at my sons with a haunting confusion, unable to ignore the stormy blue eyes that were a perfect mirror of his own. I stood there, paralyzed by his scent—the sharp tang of rain and expensive leather that triggered the icy dread of my worst nightmares. How could he accuse me of betrayal when he felt exactly like the monster who had shattered my life in that dark hotel room? "I'll sign anything," I sobbed, "just give me my kids." But the game changed when my five-year-old son hacked the tower’s security, holding the skyscraper hostage to save me. In the chaos, a fragile, silent boy—Archibald’s secret son—wandered into the room and reached for me as if I were his missing soul. Archibald’s face turned to stone as he tore up the agreement and locked the doors. "Until I find out why my son is looking at you like that," he growled, "you aren't going anywhere."

Today is October 14th, my birthday. I returned to New York after months away, dragging my suitcase through the biting wind, but the VIP pickup zone where my husband's Maybach usually idled was empty. When I finally let myself into our Upper East Side penthouse, I didn't find a cake or a "welcome home" banner. Instead, I found my husband, Caden, kneeling on the floor, helping our five-year-old daughter wrap a massive gift for my half-sister, Adalynn. Caden didn't even look up when I walked in; he was too busy laughing with the girl who had already stolen my father's legacy and was now moving in on my family. "Auntie Addie is a million times better than Mommy," my daughter Elara chirped, clutching a plush toy Caden had once forbidden me from buying for her. "Mommy is mean," she whispered loudly, while Caden just smirked, calling me a "drill sergeant" before whisking her off to Adalynn's party without a second glance. Later that night, I saw a video Adalynn posted online where my husband and child laughed while mocking my "sensitive" nature, treating me like an inconvenient ghost in my own home. I had spent five years researching nutrition for Elara's health and managing every detail of Caden's empire, only to be discarded the moment I wasn't in the room. How could the man who set his safe combination to my birthday completely forget I even existed? The realization didn't break me; it turned me into ice. I didn't scream or beg for an explanation. I simply walked into the study, pulled out the divorce papers I'd drafted months ago, and took a black marker to the terms. I crossed out the alimony, the mansion, and even the custody clause-if they wanted a life without me, I would give them exactly what they asked for. I left my four-carat diamond ring on the console table and walked out into the rain with nothing but a heavily encrypted hard drive. The submissive Mrs. Holloway was gone, and "Ghost," the most lethal architect in the tech world, was finally back online to take back everything they thought I'd forgotten.

I sat on the edge of the examination table, the crinkle of the sanitary paper sounding like thunder in the sterile room. The doctor didn't even look at me as he confirmed the news: the pregnancy was over. My husband, Keyon, didn't answer my call. He just sent an automated text: "In a meeting." When I returned to our cold mansion, I found his iPad glowing with a message from his "muse," Katina. He was throwing her a secret gala tonight-on our third wedding anniversary. He told her he couldn't wait to escape the "boring" and "draining" atmosphere I created at home. Keyon didn't stumble in until 3 AM, smelling of Katina's perfume with a smear of red on his collar. When I handed him the divorce papers, he laughed in my face. He called me a "glorified housekeeper" with no skills and no future, promising I'd be back in three days begging for a subway ticket. He even bet his friends ten thousand dollars that I wouldn't survive a week without his name. He had his assistant cancel my credit cards and block my gate access before I even reached the end of the driveway. He wanted me to starve. He wanted me to crawl. He sat in his office, mocking the "desperate" woman who pawned her three-million-dollar wedding ring for scrap metal just to pay for a meal. I stood on the rainy curb, watching the man I had protected for three years treat my life like trash. He didn't know about the ultrasound I just threw in the bin. He didn't know that while he was calling me "dull," I was the one secretly writing the code that kept his billion-dollar empire from collapsing. As I slid into a cheap Uber, I opened a hidden, encrypted app on my phone. The screen refreshed to a dashboard for an account Keyon didn't know existed. The balance was ten figures long-the accumulated wealth of "Solaris," the world's most elusive tech genius. Keyon thinks he just evicted a parasite, but he's about to find out he just declared war on the only person who can hit "delete" on his entire life.
