The creatures of the dark had much better plans for him.
***
Joyce woke up in the morning, wondering just how she was going to get a job. Her dad was giving her a lot of pressure to make sure that she was going out there looking for a job. But after doing it for a while, Joyce was on the verge of giving up. She had a degree in accounting but from the look of things, it seemed as though everyone her age had a degree in accounting. And that spelled doom for her since the competition in her field was too darn high.
But that morning, Joyce just decided to go out there and try something out for the sake of trying it out. She had reached a point where she herself was starting to have a difficult time staying in the house just because of the guilt that she was feeling. It was just too much for life. She was turning twenty-three in a months’ time and she wanted to celebrate it in her own apartment.
Most of her friends were already in stable relationships, let alone having their own apartments and that also contributed to her discomfort. At the end of the day, it seemed as though everything was going to be fine since the dictum says that there is always a silver lining after every cloud. And that was whatever the heck she was going to aim at that day – the silver lining. Meaning that she was going to do all in her power to ignore all of the bullshit that came through her way.
And without further ado, Joyce woke up and made sure that she was getting to work as soon as possible. She made a point of getting everything ready and left the house before her dad woke up.
Apart from getting a job and moving out of her father’s house, it seemed as though there was another thing that Joyce was having trouble with – finding the right man to be with. But at the moment, she knew that she had no other choice but to prioritize as much as possible. She knew that if she did everything accordingly, then the right man was going to come over and make her day without a doubt. but until then, she had to wait.
And just like that, Joyce begun her day in high spirits. And that was how she landed a job at a club as a bartender.
-The dilemmas-
Viktor had to change his name to mike and assume a brand new identity, this was apart from shifting and starting over after a couple of years so that he couldn’t be detected. The fortune that he had amerced as an arms dealer almost five centuries had enabled him to become one of the most successful investors of the 21 st century, even making him make an entry in Forbes.
In the end, especially after the incident that turned him into a vampire, mike had decided that he was never going to turn anyone into a vampire or even drain blood from a human being. He was a kind person and swore that even though he was dealing in weapons that ended up killing people in battle.
Over the years, he opted to feed on animal blood but with time, he also begun having a conscience and begun getting blood from hospitals. Thankfully, there were plenty of vampires working in hospitals just for the sake of keeping a low profile and getting access to all of the blood that they needed in order to stay on top of their game as far as life was concerned. But there were still plenty of vampires who were killing without mercy all over the world. But thankfully, mike wasn’t one of them.
He even went to the point of quitting his weapons business for the kings and barons and used his money to start companies during the industrial revolution a century back. And that explained why his fortune tripled over the decades to make him on of the richest men on the planet.
But still he always liked to keep his profile very low to the point that people only knew his name but not his face. And that meant that he could easily maneuver from one place to another without anyone knowing what he was worth and capable of doing.
He also had one of those incredibly
