<h4>Chapter 322 Clearing the air</h4>


    NEW BOOK: Allure Of The Night


    —


    Simon held Mnie''s hand as they walked around the campus, while Mnie tried to stop him as it felt like she was soon going to step into war mine.


    "Simon?" Mnie called him. "What are you nning?"


    "n?" asked Simon, turning his head to give her a bright smile. "When have I ever nned anything? You doubt an innocent soul like me for no reason. I am a harmless potato."


    "When were potatoes even harmful?"


    A dramatic gasp escaped from Simon''s lips, and he stopped walking. Turning his body, he said, "Do you know a lot of people die because of them? Over eating them, not eating them, some dreaming about them."


    Mnie stared at Simon as if he had hit his head somewhere. But then Simon was like this all the time.


    "I sometimes wonder if I jumped into the swimming pool without realizing the depth of the water," muttered Mnie.


    "My love is as deep as the ocean. Don''tpare it to a shallow swimming pool," stated Simon, and he huffed in the end.


    Mnie shook her head, to think that she would have to live with this person for the rest of her life. She then asked him, "What''s the deal with you and Nh? Was she your slumber party partner?"


    A grin appeared on Simon''s lips, and he pinched Mnie''s cheek, "So cute. Do you think I am a girl?"


    "Did you have sex with her?"


    Simon quickly covered his ears, "Such crude words. Mother and father-inw wouldn''t be happy about it."


    Mnie wondered if Simon had perhaps lost more screws this morning. It was as if he was in a whole different mood and universe of his own. But then, at the same time, she realized how much Simon was enjoying annoying her. That was his favourite hobby...


    "Actually, she''s one of the girls I never slept with. Though she is in the same year as me and ss," Simon finally answered her.


    "Why not?" asked Mnie because she was sure that Simon had gotten under the sheets or at least made out with half of the girls. Was Nh perhaps on the other half of the girls in Veteris?


    "Nh was my neighbor before the massacre on Veteris took ce. Probably that is why," Simon shrugged his shoulders. "She has been a good friend until recently."


    "Why what happened recently?" frowned Mnie.


    "You, my love," answered Simon, and they started to walk again. He then continued, "When I had turned into a vampire, my transformation had a few hups. If you think Roman had it worse when ites to his consumption of blood, mine was on a different level. Nh was the one who tried to get me blood, to state my thirst because initially I went rampant, killing humans to quench my thirst. She helped me get it in control."


    "She took care of you," murmured Mnie and Simon''s lips twisted.


    "Don''t worry about her. I will solve the problem that might arise in the future with a snap of my fingers now," Simon assured her, and the pace of his footsteps increased.


    When Mnie and Simon found Nh talking with a friend of hers, Simon went straight to call the vampiress, "Nh!" he waved at her with a bright smile on his face.


    Mnie noticed the way the vampiress turned happy just by Simon''s presence. For the girl to take care of Simon, when she had just turned, she could only imagine that the girl was infatuated or was in love with him way before in time.


    Nh offered a polite smile that Mnie hadn''t received even the first time the two girls had met each other in the library. But when the vampiress''s eyes fell behind Simon, her smile faltered.


    "Is there something you wanted, Simon?" she asked him.


    "Oh, yes. I did," Simon nodded, and Mnie watched Nhe and stand in front of him. "I believe you have met the love of my life Mnie Davis?" He introduced Mnie to Nh, and Nh turned stiff.


    "I didn''t know about it…" murmured Nh, unhappy that Simon had used ''love'' and ''Mnie'' in a sentence. "What about us?"


    "We were neighbors and then we turned into acquaintances. We can turn to brother and sister if you want to?" offered Simon, and his words only insulted Nh, and she clenched her jaws and hands.


    Nh questioned Simon, "Is this your way of telling me that you don''t feel anything special towards me? That all my care those days and after was nothing but insignificant?"


    "They aren''t insignificant, Nh. What you did for me is very much appreciated, and it is why I shall not question you if you have tried to attack Mnie with your words or actions. Consider the debt to be paid for the night when I carried you back home," stated Simon, his smile lowering from his lips.


    "I thought we were more than that and believed that you needed time…" Nh''s voice trailed, noticing the hidden re behind Simon''s green eyes. "I have loved you, Simon… for a very long time."


    "My apologies but I hold no romantic interests towards you, and the only woman I would like to be with is Mel," responded Simon, but Nh gritted her teeth, finding it hard to digest.


    "You are lying… you have always teased me," said Nh, and Mnie heard the girl''s voice crack at the end. "You are ying now, aren''t you? There''s no way you would find a human, less a hunter to be your partner. A kind that was simr to your family who hurt you."


    Simon offered the vampiress a smile before he sighed, "You know me. I am twisted in every sense, and I rather find Mnie to be a right match. She evokes feelings in me like no one has before. I don''t want anyone to take her away from me. In fact," he said, turning behind and walking to where Mnie stood. He took hold of Mnie''s hand and pushed a ring on her finger, leaving both the girls shocked and surprised.
