She couldn¡¯t catch a glimpse of his face as he just walked away immediately after. ¡°Thanks¡± Adia whispered softly as she stared at his broad shoulders which looked so inviting with his sturdy build, he had the perfect male figure, Adia kept on staring as he walked into the prestigious hotel. Such a sexy god¡¯s Adia thought as she quickly averted her perverted thought scolding herself from thinking that way, she came here to make some money not to drool over anyone. ¡°Whoa Adia seems like your eyes caught something interesting¡± Cora whispered from behind as Adia quickly jolted back to the present. ¡°No that¡¯s not what you think¡±Adia said as she realized she¡¯s been staring too much. ¡± Chill Adia it¡¯s normal for a girl your age to feel that way hmm,e on I¡¯ll show you what to do¡± Cora concluded smiling as they both walked inside the prestigious hotel, where Cora worked as a manager. ***** ¡°Yes Seb she¡¯ll be here soon, I¡¯ll send her over¡± Rowan said over the phone as Sebastian hung up. ¡± Oh there she is¡­¡± Rowan eximed as he mistook Adia to be chole, he was really in a hurry as Seb could go berserk at any time, so he didn¡¯t take his precious time to study Adia closely, as he walked up to her briskly. ¡°You¡¯re finally here..

Rowan opened a door and took her inside an exquisite room ¡± bye miss chole ¡± Rowan bowed, shutting the door, not giving her a chance to speak. ¡°Mr..¡± Adia called out as she knocked at the door before scanning the dark room where she could hardly see a thing. ¡®What just happened?¡¯adia asked herself as she continuously knocked on the door. ¡°Oh you¡¯re here ¡± a deep sexy voice echoed in the quiet room as she turned to see where the voice came from, but almost immediately a pair of strong arms yanked her from behind as her back hit his bare chest. Making Adia scream in shock. ¡°He¡¯s half naked ¡± Adia shrieked in her mind as she struggled to get free but his hold was just too strong. ¡°Please¡± ¡°shh do what you¡¯re paid to do¡± he whispered I¡¯m her ear as his sweet smell wafted through her nostrils, as if butterflies were hovering around her stomach. The smell felt familiar but that was not the time to start thinking about smell for Adia as she thought hard on what to do, she can¡¯t have sex with this guy and the worst of all was that she had no idea about his identity, she had to do something real fast. Before she could even think of anything his warm palms groped one of her breast as she winced in pain. ¡°Not too bad¡± Sebmented on the size of her breast squeezing it roughly as she whimpered in fright. ¡± Come onss, I know you¡¯ve never been touched and I¡¯ll be privileged to do that, Rowan really did well did time¡± hemented feeling satisfied as he nibbled on her ear lobe, as Adia felt a warm sensation round her body, but she fought hard not to sumb to the pleasure she was feeling. ¡± Please¡± Adia begged in a small voice. ¡°don¡¯t worry I¡¯ll go easy on you, since it¡¯s your first time¡±he assured her softly and before she knew it she he had already stripped her naked as her back hit the soft cozy bed. She covered her private part as she attempted to stand up but was pinned back on the bed by the same strong arms and the worst of it was that she couldn¡¯t see a thing as the room was dimly lit. ¡°No need to cover yourself up, Hmm¡± Seb whispered as hetched his tongue on her forbidden spot as he sucked her clit greediy. ¡°You¡¯re already wet, guess you¡¯re enjoying this too¡± Seb smiled satisfactorily as he continued sucking her clit roughly. SILENT NIGHT 2 ¡°Please spare me ¡± Adia begged softly ¡°Calm down dear the night is gonna be a long one and I¡¯m not done with you yet¡± Seb whispered in her ear with a raw sweet voice. He drove one of his fingers into her clit, as he also ced his tongue on her nibbling on her flesh, while Adia tried avoiding all the pleasures he was giving her, she couldn¡¯t stop her body from reacting to his touch, as she tried surpassing all her moans. Seb continued fucking her with his finger as he ced another finger into as he grabbed her breast with other hand squeezing it roughly ¡°shit, you¡¯re so tight you know¡± Seb cursed as he ced another finger into her as he worked on her clit, he pinched her nipple as Adia let out a soft moan making Seb smile to himself. ¡± I think you¡¯ve got the wrong per¡­.. haa!!!¡± Adia gasped in pain as he drove all the way down, he was just way too strong for her, what has she gotten herself into?. Everything has gone wrong. ¡± fuck ¡°Seb cursed loudly as she was just too tight. ¡± Please ¡°Adia cried in pains as he cleaved deep into her, fucking her roughly giving her no room to adjust to his dick. ¡± Shh, the pains will soon be gone and you will receive all the pleasure you desire¡± he whispered as he groped one of her breasts andtched onto one of her nipples sucking on it hungrily. ¡°Uhh too tight¡± he hissed as he plunged deeper as Adia moaned in pains, fucking her earnestly as Adia moaned since she couldn¡¯t hold it anymore. But Sebastian just had the impression that she was a little reluctant because it was her first time ¡°holy shit¡± he cursed as released his semen into her womb, still pounding her earnestly. ****** ¡± And where the hell has Adia gone to?¡± Cora asked no one in particr as she searched round for adi, she Wondered where she must have run off to as her number was not going through, she just left to attend to something, before calling Adia toe meet her in her office but Adia never came, that¡¯s the reason she went searching for her but there was no trace of her anywhere. ¡°Am so sorry¡±Cora apologized quickly as she ran into someone. ¡± It¡¯s okay miss¡± Rowan answered as Cora just nodded and walked away trying to reach Adia phone, while Rowan continued staring at her as he felt he has met her before. ¡± Um please excuse me Mr¡± a tiny voice said as Rowan turned to see ady dressed erotically with a lot of makeup and a strong perfume ¡°Yes please, how can I help you?¡± Rowan asked thedy, as he was beginning to smell something fishy ¡®could it be that.. no no I hope it¡¯s not¡¯ Rowan thought hoping he hasn¡¯t made a mistake. ¡± You must be Mr Rowan, am chole, we have an appointment together¡± thedy exined as realization dawned on Rowan, he had actually sent the wrong girl no wonder she was a little reluctant a while ago. ¡°what the Fuck¡± Rowan cursed loudly as chole Wondered what was up with him. ¡°Why are youte?¡±he finally asked angrily ¡°I was caught up in traffic¡± chole exined as Rowan gave her an angry look. ¡°Get out¡± he yelled angrily surprising chole ¡°s.. ir¡± chole stammered wondering what was wrong. ¡± Just leave ¡°he yelled again walking away wondering how to get out of this mess. Rowan quickly walked to the VIPs and straight to Sebastian¡¯s room but was weed by loud moans and sounds of flesh pounding. He knew this was not the best time to interrupt Seb so he just hoped for the best and will have to wait till morning. **** Seb walked to the small figure lying on the hotel bed, squatting beside her he removed the strands of hair covering her face as he stared at the beautiful face in front of him ¡® she looks just like her¡¯. he thought as he stared at her. She passed out afterst night¡¯s session and has not woken up since. He could still hear her heartbeat as she slept soundly, suddenly he was interrupted by a knock on the door as he walked over to open the door. ¡°It¡¯s too early to be Disturbed Rowan¡± hezily uttered as he opened the door. ¡°Where¡¯s she?¡± Rowan asked barging in ¡°where¡¯s who chole?¡± ¡± You¡¯ve got the wrong person she¡¯s not chole¡± Rowan broke the ice as Seb stared at him nkly. ¡°What!!

She walked over to Addison¡¯s room as she found her still sleeping. A tear dropped from her eyes as she couldn¡¯t watch her sister suffering, she had to do something real quick before things gets out of hand. Then she remembered she wanted to get some test done as she¡¯s been feeling a little wierdtely, she has not been her self for the past few days, she hoped it was not what she thinks she is as she walked quickly to the test center to get done with the test before Addison wakes up. ******** ¡± Here miss peters your test results are out¡± The doctor announced as she handed over an envelope to Adia as they were currently in the doctor¡¯s office. ¡°Thanks doctor, so what does the test say¡± Adia asked the doctor nervously as she took the envelope from the doctor as she hoped for the best toe. ¡°Well congrattions Mrs peters you¡¯re two weeks pregnant¡± the doctor announced smiling as Adia froze at the spot mouth ajar. ¡°Pre.. gna.. nat¡± Adia stammered as she kept looking at the envelope in her hands and the doctor repeatedly as she was so confused she didn¡¯t know if she should be happy or sad the moment. ¡°Yes pregnant¡± the doctor replied again smiling wondering why Adia was a little wierd. ¡°pregnant¡± Adia repeated again as she was still finding it hard to believe as she continuously rubbed her t tommy, eyes wide like saucers, it was so skeptical to believe and the father was no other person than that man.This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org. ¡°Thanks doctor I¡¯ll take my leave now¡± Adia said as she tried forcing out a fake smile as she walked out of the office speechless as she still found it really hard to believe. ******* Adia was walking down too Addison¡¯s room absent mindedly as a voice broke her out of her own world ¡°Hey Adia¡± Cora called out waving at Adia as Adia waved back at her faking a smile at Cora. ¡°Hi Cora when did you get here?¡± Adia asked a little surprise that cora was at the hospital. ¡°Not too long ago I was passing by so I decided to drop by and say hello how¡¯s Addison?¡± ¡°She fine now¡± ¡°Ohk, what¡¯s that?¡± Cora asked pointing at the envelope Adia was holding. ¡± Oh this it¡¯s nothing, just some prescribed drugs for Addison that¡¯s all¡± Adia answered a little nervous as she quickly kept the envelope in her purse. ¡°Oh.. k¡± Cora emphasized as she looked at Adia with doubt in her eyes as she felt something different in Adia. ¡± Come on Addison must have woken up now, let¡¯s go to her ¡± Adia said as Cora just nodded as they walked to Addison¡¯s room as Adia tried avoiding Cora questions with flimsy excuses. **** Adia stood close to the window in Addison hospital room holding her t tommy sobbing silently as she thought of how to save Addison and now the unborn child as she didn¡¯t even have the slightest information about it¡¯s Father. She stared at the stars in confusion how would she tell Cora about this, but she had already made up her mind about this, she had to save her sister at all cost, she just had to find the money, she¡¯ll save Addison and after Addison surgery and all she¡¯ll just leave to a faraway ce to raise her child. She cursed the night she went to that hotel she also cursed at the man who she feels raped her ¡®i¡¯ll have to be strong¡¯ she consoled herself as she cried Even more, she was broken out from her thought when she heard Addison waking up. ****** ¡± So what do we have there¡± Seb asked referring to Rowan who was holding an ipad containing Adia¡¯s information ¡°Name Adia peters , she¡¯s twenty four years old, she¡¯s an orphan and lives alone with her younger sister who¡¯s sixteen years old and has been diagnosed with leukemia, her only friend is Cora Arthur who¡¯s one of us, I guess you remember her¡± ¡± One of us eei¡± Seb chimed in sarcastically as Rowan continued with his report ¡°Cora works as a manager in the hotel you both¡­you know, Adia works as an editor and works part-time at a cafe, she¡¯s currently trying to raise money for her dying sister and we kinda have a problem ¡± Rowan concluded as he dropped the iPad on the desk. ¡°And what¡¯s that?¡± Seb asked as he sipped wine from the ss he was holding. ¡°She¡¯s pregnant Seb¡± Rowan replied ¡°and so¡± Seb questioned as Rowan watched him in bewilderment wondering how he¡¯s still oblivious of the problem at hand. ¡°She¡¯s carrying your child Seb¡± Rowan finally said after some minutes Seb spat out all the wine In his mouth. ¡± What do you mean pregnant, she can¡¯t be pregnant, we just had sex once¡± Seb said pacing round the exquisite office. Rowan just watched him and Wondered how he could still not pinpoint the real issue here. ¡°Seb that¡¯s not a problem now, we have a bigger problem, she can¡¯t bear your child, she¡¯s human and you¡¯re a vampire, we are not like her¡± Rowan added as realization stuck Seb hard as he slumped on his chair. ¡± Come on Rowan, that can¡¯t be my child, it takes time for a vampire to father a child not to talk of a human and a vampire mating so it can¡¯t be possible¡± Seb said finding it difficult to believe. ¡± I guess you have to ept the truth and we need to do something about it immediately¡± ¡± call Ace and Arion over right now¡± Seb ordered as Rowan immediately called them over the phone. This was a matter that needed to be dealt with caution as someone¡¯s life was on the line here. MARRY HER Seb¡¯s office was as quiet as a graveyard as Seb continuously punching on the wall angrily destroying it as his fist cracked the wall into little pieces as Ace, Arion and Rowan just watched him behaving as he liked as they spared nces at each other. ¡± Wouldn¡¯t it be better if we stop him?¡± Ace asked referring to no one but Seb ¡± I don¡¯t think so, just let him pour all his aggression on the poor wall¡± Arion suggested as the rest agreed with him nodding simultaneously. ¡°So Rowan, what will we do about that child, we all know what will happen to the girl in question if she bears the child, she¡¯ll die¡± Ace emphasized as he really pitied Adia for whatever she has gotten her self into, they would never opt for an abortion. ¡°I¡¯ll been pondering over this for some time now and haven¡¯te up with anything, Seb¡¯s not even helping¡± Rowan painstakingly said as they red at Seb one more time. ¡°We need to do something really fast, we can¡¯t take chances¡± Arion said as they all pondered over the issue, it really seemed as if there was nothing they can do about this, there was definitely no way out of this. ¡°This can¡¯t be fucking possible¡± Seb suddenly cursed as he had not said anything since ¡°Rowan you gotta think of something, you know this is literally impossible right?¡± Seb asked as he held rowan¡¯s cor tight. ¡°Choking me wouldn¡¯t help solve this, you know¡± Rowan managed to blurt out freeing himself from Seb¡¯s grip as Laura walked in majestically as she stared at the four beauties in the office looking depressed ¡°sir th¡­.¡± ¡°Get out of my office right this moment¡± Seb barked at her in anger as she immediately left the office with fright. ¡°Well the only thing I can think of now is to keep a watchful eye on her, then we can think of something¡± Arion suggested as they a stared at him meaningfully. ¡°Why?¡± Seb questioned staring wondering what be was driving at, it was literally obvious that she would survive this, no human in the vampire history has survived this, humans were too weak to bear a vampire child, cause usually on the sixth month of the pregnancy the baby would start feeding on the human which was very bad, and the most interesting part of all was that hybrid vampires were very strong the few that existed was a force to reckon with. ¡°So what do we do have you guys thought of anything yet¡± Ace asked. ¡± We I think the only thing to do now is watch her closely and that would only be possible if you do the needful¡± Arion suggested as Seb stared hard at him wondering what he was talking about. ¡°Which is?¡± ¡°Marry her Seb, yes marry her that¡¯s the only thing we can think of now, marry her¡± Rowan immediately chimed as Seb froze at the thought of getting married. ¡°No no, I don¡¯t th¡­.¡± ¡°Marry her Sebastian¡± they all chorused together as Seb just watched them with bewilderment, they gat to be kidding him there was no way he would ever marry thatdy. ***** ¡°There¡¯s no way she¡¯s gonna ept my proposal and it¡¯s so weird to get married, especially to that woman¡± Sebastian blurted out through gritted teeth as he walked towards the elevator with Rowan. He just couldn¡¯t ept that fact that Adia was pregnant with his child and to crown it all Rowan and the rest were suggesting marriage, he didn¡¯t feel a thing for Adia and he knew she felt the same way too, but he just had to do this because someone¡¯s life was on the line here and his child, that child was a vampire¡¯s child and vampires doesn¡¯t joke with their lineage as it was very difficult for a male vampire to impregnate a female, so it still remained a mystery to him how she just got pregnant. ¡°Yea, she¡¯ll definitely ept the proposal¡± Rowan stated confidently as he removed his eyes from the iPad he was holding. ¡°How do mean?¡± Sebastian asked as he had the hunch that Rowan was up to something. ¡°From the research I have here, she¡¯s currently in need of cash for her dying sister¡¯s surgery, so this what you¡¯ll do, go to her with a proposal and just volunteer to pay the bills and in exchange you both will get married¡± Rowan concluded feeling like a genius. ¡°And what makes you think that she will ept my proposal?¡± ¡°Her sister has little bit of time left, so she has no choice and will definitely ept¡± ¡°Look Rowan, can¡¯t we just make a deal, we will watch over her without the both of us getting married, and makes sure she bears the child safely¡± ¡°You know that can¡¯t be possible Seb, you¡¯re her only safe heaven at the moment, once word gets out that she¡¯s pregnant with your child, you know many people wille after her life, let¡¯s not forget about Kate and her obsession at least think about the child, it¡¯s not safe either¡± Rowan said as Sebastian signed deeply what Rowan just said was true though, but¡­ ¡°So are you gonna let her suffer?¡± Rowan asked as he was literally trying all his possible best to convince Sebastian to ept Adia. They walked out of the elevator as it made a dinged sound indicating they¡¯ve gotten to thest floor where Sebastian office was. ¡°Hey Mr daddy!!¡± A voice cheerfully said startling them immediately they got out of the elevator, as they looked up to see the happy face of Ace who was holding two shopping bags. Sebastian growled in anger upon seeing him as Rowan grinned sheepishly. ¡°What do you have there?¡± Rowan asked referring to the shopping bags Ace was holding. ¡°I went shopping for my nephew, look I got lots of baby things¡± Ace replied as he gave Rowan the bags while he went through them. ¡°They¡¯re cute right?¡± Ace asked putting on a devilish smile wanting to provoke Sebastian but Sebastian just ignored him keeping a stoic face as he behaved as if he was unaffected by what was going on. ¡°Wow Ace you¡¯ve really got good taste¡± Rowan praised as they were bent on provoking Sebastian. ¡°I Know Right, it¡¯s our Sebastian child so he needs to be treated like a prince¡± Ace added putting on a cheeky smile. ¡°Who told you the baby is a he?¡± Rowan asked raising a brow at him. ¡± Well my instincts are always right you know and I strongly believe the baby is a he, right Sebastian?¡±This content is ? N?velDrama.Org. ¡°You can¡¯t even guarantee if the baby and the mother is gonna survive this and you¡¯re here celebrating, you¡¯re so impossible¡± Sebastian told him nonchntly as he walked to his office. ¡°Come on Sebastian can¡¯t you be positive for once?¡± Ace asked as he ran after Sebastian as Rowan walked slowly to the office hoping for the best. URGENT ¡°Here Addison, have your medicine¡± Adia offered as she fed her the medicines. they were currently in the hospital room with Cora also ¡°you have to rest now Addison, Adia we need to talk, we¡¯ll be back so Addison, hmm¡± Cora smiled at Addison as she rubbed her cheek lovingly ¡°Adia¡± she called as she grabbed Adia wrist as she dragged her out. ¡°What is it that you want to talk about?¡± Adia asked as they walked few meters away from Addison¡¯s room. ¡°What¡¯s wrong with you Adia?¡± She suddenly asked ¡°what are you talking about Cora?¡± ¡°You clearly know what I mean Adia, you¡¯ve been my friend for years now and I¡¯ll definitely know if something bothering you¡± Cora stated as she has been feeling something weird in Adia ever since that night but just couldn¡¯t point her fingers on what the problem is. ¡°Adia what happened at the hotel that night, you just suddenly disappeared at night and reappeared again at morning, then you quit out of nowhere, answer me Adia, where the Fuck were you?, don¡¯t lie to me¡± Cora asked as she was already getting angry as Adia was not helping at all , she¡¯s just standing there keeping her quiet. ¡°And there are times you¡¯ll just be staring into outer space, thinking about ¡®god knows what¡¯, you¡¯ll also be talking to your self holding your tum¡­.¡± ¡°Cora I¡¯ll keep saying it times without number, I am fine, and I quit because I was feeling a little ufortable, you know the rich folks and all¡± Adia interrupted Cora as she made up a cock and bull story hoping she just believes it. ¡°No Adia, what am¡­..¡± ¡°Cora please, let¡¯s never talk about this hmm, like I said I am fine, see you ¡± Adia stated as she walked away from Cora. Cora just stared nkly at Adia as she walked away. ***** ¡°So what are we gonna name our dearest nephew, Bryan, Wyatt, no no us, well I think us is better, don¡¯t you think so Seb?¡± Ace asked as he was obviously trying to get on Seb¡¯s nerves. ¡°Just stop it Ace, that¡¯s enough already, enough, we don¡¯t even know if she will survive this or not, so please stop it¡± Sebastian growled in anger as he was already tired of all of Ace¡¯s nagging. ¡°But Sebastian we all know the baby¡¯s definitely gonna survive this, it¡¯s only the mother¡¯s life that¡¯s at stake and knowing the kind of person Adia is, well¡­ she¡¯ll be able to give up her life for her baby¡± Rowan chipped in as his hunch told him that¡¯s the kind of person Adia is. She felt so humane and genuine and if she eventually finds out about this, she¡¯ll definitely sacrifice herself, but things would have been alot easier if her and Sebastian were in good terms, but he guessed that would never happen as Sebastian was really hard to deal with. ¡°Woah Rowan, feels like you actually know this woman¡± Ace said as he marveled at the way Rowan praised Adia. ¡°Well my instincts just tells me so¡± ¡°Because she reminds you of Aisling, right?¡± This time it was Arion who asked as the atmosphere around them suddenly felt chilly and it was from no other person than Sebastian.This content is ? N?velDrama.Org. ¡®what wrong with Arion, is he tryna cause a fuss here, such an asshole¡¯ Rowan cursed in his thoughts as the name Aisling still rings a bell as she was Sebastian ex girlfriend, who was murdered, a long time ago, they don¡¯t actually have an actual suspect, but they all believed it was Kate who did this. ¡°Whoa whoa, aren¡¯t you going a little too far Arion, you know how Sebastian hates¡­¡± ¡°Ace¡± Sebastian suddenly called out as be tried containing the anger within him. ¡°Am sorry Seb¡± Ace quickly apologized as he knew this wasn¡¯t the Time to make Seb angry. ¡°Besides you guys said, the child¡¯s definitely gonna survive, but there was a higher chance the mother will die, what am I , ugghh, a demon, a monster, I¡¯m not that heartless you know?¡± Sebastian asked as they all nodded, what he said earlier was true though, they couldn¡¯t be inconsiderate and make Adia die. ¡°So we¡¯re gonna all we can to save, Adia peters, understood?¡± Sebastian inquired as they all agreed with him as it seemed a little bit suspicious,¡¯why is he getting over work up over Adia?¡¯ was the unanswered thought that ran through there head, ¡°guys¡± he called jolting them off their trance like state. ¡°Ace, make sure to look into all hybrid vampires that has existed¡± Sebastian ordered as he went through some files. Hoping there was something they could actually do for Adia. ¡°Arion see the doctor treating that woman¡¯s sister and make some negotiations with him, if Adia is to ept my proposal, she needs to be pressured, hmm and the only way is through her sister Addison so Arion be fast about that, make sure she gets pressured by the doctor to bring the cash¡± Sebastian ordered as he proceeded to his next n. ***** ¡°So miss Adia Ike I said earlier, your sister¡¯s condition is already getting worse and you¡¯ve not deposited a dime for her treatment¡± the doctor said as he had summoned her to the hospital early this morning as time was not on their side here. ¡°Please doctor, just exercise a little patience, please I¡¯ll gather up the money before Friday and pay up¡± ¡°Friday¡± the doctor scoffed as he obviously had more to say. ¡°Adia I know how you care for your little sister, so find every possible means to foot the bill¡± the doctor adviced as Adia nodded slowly as she left the doctor¡¯s office. Addison was basically everything she had and she would never allow any arme to her, but it seemed like she failed, she¡¯s just so pathetic, getting pregnant for a man who you don¡¯t even have the slightest idea about his identity but she didn¡¯t care though, because she has no ns on searching for that asshole, he¡¯s just the cause. ¡®where do I get this money?¡¯ she kept asking in her thought as she sat in Addison¡¯s room helplessly, it seems all hope was already Lost, there was nothing she could do. LET鈥橲 GET MARRIED Adia was just returning from the pharmacy, when a shy car suddenly zoomed past her and stopped in front of her. ¡°What the hell is wrong with you?

It was thest person she will never wish to see in her entire life, one of the cause of her problems. ¡°You..¡± she yelled angrily as Sebastian stood in front of her as she staggered backwards. She fumed In anger as she took a good look again at the man in front of her. He looked so breathtakingly handsome with the prefect build, those muscr shoulders, with his perfectly chiseled jawline. He look so good with those juicy lips of his. ¡®adia snap out of this¡¯ Adia scolded herself for drooling over him as she inhaled deeply. ¡°We need to talk¡± Seb stated after giving her enough time to survey his handsome Face. ¡°There¡¯s nothing to talk about, please excuse me¡± Adia politely said as she attempted to leave but was held back by Sebastian. ¡°Look, Mr I¡¯d love if you quietly let me go or I¡¯ll call the cops on you¡± Adia threatened as Sebastian scoffed ¡°cops¡± ¡°Just let me go¡± Adia yelled struggling with him as she couldn¡¯t stand his intimidating presence anymore. She managed to set her self free from his strong grip as she attempted to Walk away. ¡°Stop right there Adia, I think you have something that belongs to me¡± Sebastian called as his deep and raw voice vibrated in her ears, as she stopped walking immediately, and turned to face him angrily. ¡°Look Mr or whatever¡± ¡± it¡¯s Sebastian¡± Sebastian corrected as she red at him. ¡°Sebastian or what ever, I don¡¯t think I owe you anything, just let me be and I never want to see ever again¡± Adia warned pointing her fingers angrily at him as he smirked at her. ¡°Just let me be and get out of my life¡± Sebastian signed as he watched her ranting. ¡°First of all, I was never a part of your life and secondly be careful Adia, you¡¯re carrying my baby¡± Sebastian concluded with a serious face as Adia gawped at him. ¡°Look I don¡¯t know what you are talking about, maybe you¡¯ve got the wrong person, so if you would excuse me¡± Adia denied as she smiled wryly at Sebastian. ¡°I Know you¡¯re pregnant with my child Adia, so let¡¯s cut to the chase¡± Sebastian said as Adia red hard at him, she really wanted to punch that handsome face his. ¡°Here¡± he handed over a file to her as she collected it from him wondering what it contained. ¡°What¡¯s this?¡± Adia asked suspiciously as her gaze met with Sebastian¡¯s. ¡°This¡¯s a contract¡± ¡°con.. tract?¡± Adia stammered as she examined the papers. ¡®what is this manic up to now?¡¯ she asked her self as she read through the papers. ¡°A marriage contract?¡± Adia asked meaningfully ¡°a marriage contract, between you and me¡± Adia scoffed as she read through the papers ¡°in your dreams asshole¡± she cursed as she threw the papers at him, scattering the papers all over them. ¡°tsk, tsk that¡¯s why I always keep a copy, always be ready for the worse Adia, I¡¯ll help you with your sister¡¯s treatment and in return you sign these¡± Sebastian exined as he rested his back on his car. ¡°Help me, I don¡¯t need your help, I can help my self¡± Adia rejected as Sebastianughed out loud sarcastically. ¡°You don¡¯t need my help¡± Sebastian repeated in scarscam as he walked closer to Adia. ¡°Come to think of it, I help you or I don¡¯t help you, I¡¯ll actually be at benefit here, if I help you I¡¯ll keep the child, and if I don¡¯t help you I¡¯ll also keep the child, so you¡¯re actually at loss here, cause you¡¯ll lose both your child and sister, how bad¡± Sebastian emphasized on the word lose as be was trying to get into her head and make her get emotional. ¡°Sorry to disappoint you, my sister¡¯s not going to die and you have no child with me, get it?¡± Adia yelled as Sebastian just kept on smiling. ¡®can you just stop smiling, it¡¯s getting on my nerves already¡¯ Adia grunted in her head as she was already getting sick of his smile. ¡°She sure will die if you don¡¯t raise the money on time and there¡¯s no way you¡¯re ever gonna raise that kind of money in many life time toe, and my child we¡¯ll settle that in court, hmm that¡¯s if you reject the proposal¡± Sebastian watched her keenly as he was sure his words hit her hard this time, she would break down any moment from now. ¡°How so you know about that, have you been stalking me, you seem to know Alot about metely¡± Adia raised a brow at him as she waited for an answer. ¡°You¡¯re my child¡¯s mother, so I¡¯ll definitely know alot about you and my soon to be wife also¡± Sebastian chuckled upon seeing her reaction, she was just trying to be strong, he¡¯ll see how long that willst. ¡°I can never be your wife Sebastian or whatever you call your self, just you watch, my sister will be operated on three days from now¡± Adia boldly said as Sebastian watched her in amusement chuckling inwardly. She¡¯s just trying to be strong, little did she know she was dealing with the devil himself, he knew something like this would definitely, besides she will definitely hate him after that has happened, he didn¡¯t like her either but he just had to this, because once the vampires find out someone¡¯s carrying his child, her and the child will definitely be in danger, which is what he wouldn¡¯t want to happen. And telling Adia about it wasn¡¯t an option either, because it wasn¡¯t the best thing to do at the moment. So the best thing to do was keep her and the child safe which can only be possible if they get married. ¡°Then let¡¯s make a deal, three days from now, you¡¯lle begging and crawling for the contract, Mark my words Adia, here my business card, I promise that you¡¯ll need that¡± he said wearing a cunning smile on his face throwing a card at her as Adia fumed In anger.

She just wanted Addison to be treated then she would go faraway with Addison and her child. ¡°Think about it Adia¡± Cora persuaded as she hugged Adia tight as Adia sobbed while Cora tried consoling her. ***** Adia walked slowly as she approached a bigpany, she has just arrived at Sebastian¡¯spany, Sha nced at the big building before making her way In. ¡°Miss please do you have an appointment?¡± The receptionist asked as Adia shed a little smile at her. ¡°Hmm not ready am here to see Sebastian¡± Adia muttered softly as the secretary red at her, who was she to call the almighty Sebastian by his name, he was literally feared by everyone. ¡°I¡¯m sorry miss but you can¡¯t get in without an appointment, so if you would please excuse me¡± the receptionist said slightly rude as Adia tried aligning matters with her. ¡°But Sebastian told me toe over, you call his office he¡¯s¡­.¡± ¡°Miss I¡¯d prefer if you kindly leave or I¡¯ll call the security on you¡± the receptionist fired at her as the thought of calling Sebastian by his name infuriates her. ¡°But Sebastian¡­¡± ¡°security¡± the receptionist yelled as some security men came running. ¡°Please throw this loser out¡± she ordered as they grabbed Adia. ¡°But Sebastian¡­¡± Adia stuttered as she struggled to set herself free. ¡°Just let me go, I can walk on my own¡± ¡°No don¡¯t, throw her out, she mighte back creating a nuisance here¡± she ordered angrily as they continued dragging a struggling Adia out. ¡°What the hell is going on here¡± a deep voice thundered as everyone stopped in their tracks.

She has seen him somewhere she thought as she remembered seeing him face somewhere. ¡®the hotel¡¯ she said to herself as she finally realized where she had met him. ***** ¡°Good day sir, ma¡¯am¡± Sebastian secretary Laura bowed as Rowan and Adia approached Sebastian¡¯s office. ¡°Where¡¯s Sebastian?¡± ¡°He went for a meeting, he¡¯ll probably be back in thirty minutes¡± Laura answered as Rowan modded. ¡°Alright then, I¡¯ll leave Adia to you, Adia this¡¯s Laura, I¡¯m currently going somewhere so you¡¯ll wait for Sebastian in his office, Laura Will tend for you if you need anything¡± Rowan stated as he was currently rushing to a meeting ¡°Laura¡± ¡°ok sir, miss Adia will you pleasee along¡± Laura said as she led Adia into Sebastian¡¯s office while Rowan left. ¡°Thanks¡± Adia muttered as they got into the office. ¡°You¡¯re wee ma¡¯am, so you need anything¡± Laura offered with a kind smile on her face. ¡°No thank you¡± Adia declined as Laura nodded. ¡°Ok, but don¡¯t hesitate if you need anything, sir Sebastian will soon be here, I¡¯ll get going now¡± Laura bowed as she left the office. Moments after Laura left, Adia took her time to look around the exquisite office which was painted with all white, a huge table with a bunch of files on it and CEO Sebastian Hunters was written on the above the desk. Adia waited for another five minutes before she decided to pick up a book to read. About fifteen minutester the door sprang open as a tall figure walked in Adia could feel the dangerous Aura he was emitting. ¡°We meet again, I never thought we would ever meet¡± Sebastian said in scarscam as he walked over to Adia, his sexily built body towering above her as Adia gulped hard. ¡°Same here¡± Adia answered as she slightly pushed him, getting away from him. ¡°I see you came, I was right after all¡± he added as he walked over to his chair to sit, as his strong perfume wafted through Adia¡¯s nose. ¡°Well I¡¯ll ept the proposal in return you help my sister, she¡¯s dying¡± Adia slowly said as Sebastian nodded meaningfully. ¡°Here, sign this, that¡¯s the contract¡± he threw some papers to her with a pen as she read through it. ¡°I¡¯ll leave after bearing the child so this contract only strands for a year, I see¡± Adia read quietly as the thought of leaving her child with him somehow broke her heart but there was nothing she could do about it. She signed the papers as she handed it over to Sebastian. ¡°Done, when will my sister start getting treatment¡± ¡°Immediately, infact they¡¯ve already started with the treatment¡± ¡°You¡¯re a sly fox you know, what if I decided to change my mind?¡±; Adia asked as Sebastian chuckled inwardly. ¡°Then I¡¯ll tell the doctors to finish her off, that wouldn¡¯t be a problem will it?¡± He asked raising a brow at her as Adia red hard at him. ¡°Come on let¡¯s go¡± he said in an ordering tune as he got from his chair. ¡°Go where?¡± Adia asked staying alert ¡®were is this manic taking me now?¡¯ she asked herself as Sebastian motioned for her to lead the way. As they both walked down to the elevator, Adia could feel piercing eyes on her, if eyes could kill she was sure she would be long dead because of the deadly gazeing from Sebastian female workers. They were probably wondering who thedy with their handsome boss was. ¡°But where are we going to?¡± Adia asked curious as they stepped into the elevator. ¡°To get married¡± came the Curt reply from Sebastian as Adia signed. ***** ¡°Awwn, such a cute couple¡± ¡°I Know right, they look so good together¡± ¡°He¡¯s so handsome and she¡¯s pretty too¡± Sebastian rolled his eyes as he heard thosements, he just wanted all this to get done with. They were currently in the court registry to get a marriage register done.N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. ¡°Here sir the certificate is done sir, you can now take your beautiful wife home, I wish you both the happiest marriage life¡± the man sincerely wished as Adia smiled at him muttering a thank you. ***** ¡°Where are we heading now?¡± Adia asked Sebastian as they just left the registry. ¡°I¡¯m taking you to you to the hospital, tomorrow I¡¯ll send someone toe pick you up¡± Sebastian answered as Adia inhaled sharply. She was gonna start a new life now and just hoped she would be able to adapt. Adia was fully aware that there¡¯s not gonna be a romantic rtionship between them, he literally married her because of the child, he¡¯s rich so he¡¯s gonna need a heir. Adia just felt this as she took a good look at his face, looked so alluring and mystical at the same time. ¡°You can stop staring now don¡¯t worry you¡¯ll get enough of me when we get married hmm¡± Sebastian mischievously said as Adia gave him a ¡® in your dreams¡¯ look as she removed her gaze from his face. SHE鈥橲 MY WIFE Sebastian dropped Adia off at the hospital before leaving in a hurry as he said he had something important to deal with. Adia walked briskly to Addison¡¯s room as she was really concerned about how she would be feeling now. ¡°Good day nurse¡± she greeted as the nurse on standby lifted her gaze to face her. ¡°Good day, how can I help you?¡± The friendly nursed smiled at her as she asked politely. ording to what Sebastian told her in the car, her sister Addison has been transferred to this hospital, and from the her research this was Heartstrings hospital and ording to Cora it was owned by one of the most eligible bachelors in the city, doctor Evans, Adia was not really a fan of stuffs like this, so she had little or no idea about the so called Dons of the city. Adia didn¡¯t know her way around as Sebastian never told her the room she was admitted to, so Adia literally had to find her way around herself. ¡°I came to see a patient here, my sister she recently got transferred here¡± Adia enquired as she broke out from her little trance. ¡°And what¡¯s the patient¡¯s name?¡±the female nurse enquired as she looked through theputer in front of her. ¡°Addison peters¡± ¡°Ohk, and who are you to the patient?¡± ¡°Sister, am her elder sister¡± ¡°Addison peters, ten years old, she was transferred here two days ago for a urgent surgery for leukemia¡± the nurse read out as Adia nodded. ¡°Alright, I see¡­ she¡¯s in the VIPs¡± the female nurse announced taking a second look at Adia and wondered how she must have afforded a VIP room, she¡¯s looking so shabby, this hospital is one of the most exquisite hospital in the country, this was where all the rich men In the country was being treated and thedy in front of her wouldn¡¯t even be able to afford a room not to talk of the VIPs. She was obviously one of the mistresses of those old rich men and maybe she¡¯s dressing shabbily to hide her true self she was pretty after all. ¡°Hmm, hmmm¡± Adia coughed out loud noticing the female nurse has been staring for too long. ¡°Oh, sorry, here¡± the nurse handed her a piece of paper as Adia muttered a thank you. ¡°Just follow the details there¡± ¡°Thanks so much¡± Adia thanked the nurse profusely as she made way to Addison¡¯s room. ***** ¡°Hey there, you must be Adia?¡± a voice startled Adia as she turned to face the person, as she found a handsome young man grinning at her. ¡°Yes, and you are?¡± ¡°Ace, nice to meet ya¡± ¡°Ace¡± Adia repeatedly called the name trying to recollect if she has met the good looking stranger before. ¡°Sebastian sent me over, I guess you¡¯re going to see your sister, after that I¡¯ll drop you off¡± Ace shed her a friendly smile as Adia nodded slowly.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. ¡°O¡­. k¡± ¡°Yea, lead the way then,dies first¡± Ace gestured his hands forward as Adia walked eagerly to Addison¡¯s room following the description the nurse gave to her. She was feeling so happy to meet Addison, and the only thing in her mind was to meet Addison Hale and hearty. But that didn¡¯t mean she did not notice the way the nurses were all sparing nces at Ace. ¡°Hello Ace¡± a voice greeted from behind as the both turned to see who it was, Ace face immediately wore a sour look the moment he saw her, while Adia wondered who she was. ¡°Kate, what are you doing here?¡± Ace asked in anger ¡°I¡¯m meant to be asking that, or have you forgotten, this¡¯s my brother Evans hospital, so I¡¯m always weed here¡±Kate stated as she shed a smile at Adia. ¡°And she¡¯s¡­.?¡± ¡°Your Girlfriend I guess¡± Kate continued as Ace didn¡¯t answer any of her questions. ¡°Hello, an A¡­.¡± ¡°She¡¯s Sebastian¡¯s wife¡± Ace interrupted Adia, as Kate took a second look at Adia. ¡°Wife I see¡± Kate chimed in sarcastically as she eyed Adia from head to toe. Wondering what Sebastian must have saw in her, ¡®, maybe he¡¯s just toying with her ¡® she thought to herself diverting her gaze to Ace. ¡°I just don¡¯t know when Sebastian started having bad taste in women, it must have started when Aisling died, oh poor Sebastian¡± Kate eyed Adia scornfully as she said those Last words, leaving a speechless Adia who wondered what she must have done to Kate, that made her hate her so much, because she could tell Kate hates her with the way she red at her. ¡°Kate¡± Ace called out in anger as she was crossing the line again, but Kate acted as if he never existed. ¡°Look Adia or whatever you are called, you are just one of Sebastian¡¯s toy, he¡¯s nevermitted to anyone else asides from Aisling, so you¡¯re just a toy, hmmm¡± ¡°No she¡¯s not¡± a sexy deep voice said aloud as Kate and Adia turned to see Sebastian approaching looking like a god as always. ¡®whats he doing here, I thought he had some important work to do¡¯ Adia thought as Sebastian approached them. ¡°Thank God you¡¯re¡­..¡± Kate stopped talking immediately as Sebastian raised his hands indicating for her to shut up. ¡°What are you doing here babe?¡± Sebastian asked out aloud as everyone froze at his question including Ace. ¡°I¡­. I .¡± Adia stuttered unable to find the right words to say ¡°Save your strength babe, you know I hate it alot when you stress yourself¡± Sebastian coaxed cing his hands round Adia waist, shocking Kate, Adia and most especially Ace. ¡®when did Sebastian start being romantic?¡¯ Ace asked himself as he stared at Sebastian in disbelief. ¡°Come on babe, you need to visit your sister remember, Ace let¡¯s go¡± Sebastian called out acting as if Kate was invincible. They walked towards the VIPs with a perplexed Adia still in Sebastian arms leaving a furious Kate who clenched her fists tight till her knuckles turned white. ¡°You must be joking Sebastian Roberts, I didn¡¯t take Aisling out of the way for nothing, I see you¡¯ve given me another reason to kill Sebastian, and she¡¯s just a mere human, it wouldn¡¯t be hard to snap her neck in two, I¡¯ming Sebastian and I¡¯ll kill that mother fucker¡± Kate swore as she walked away in anger, her iris already turning red shade in colour. EVANS MONTENERO Adia and Sebastian got into Addison room and immediately they got in Sebastian let her go and Adia was finally able to breathe. ¡°Who the hell was she?¡± Adia asked seeing Addison was fast asleep. ¡°Someone you need to stay clear of, stay away from her¡± Sebastian warned sternly as he walked casually to a cushion In the room and sat down leisurely. ¡°Where¡¯s Ace, he was with us near¡­.¡± ¡°He has something important to take care of¡± Sebastian interuptted. ¡°I was just asking, no need to be rude about it¡± Adia shot at him m as she walked over to get a ss of water. Sebastian looked around the room, the only noise that was heard was the ER, the little girl was ced on an IV and looked pale, Evans has informed him that everything went sessful. ¡± Adia..¡± a tiny voice called out breaking both Adia and Sebastian out of their reverie. ¡°Addison you¡¯re awake!!¡± Adia eximed as she rushed over to Addison¡¯s bedside. ¡°How you feeling, do you feel any pains, hope you¡¯re alright, do you need anything?¡± Adia kept bombarding Addison with questions. ¡°Am fine Adia¡± Addison answered softly as Adia pecked her cheeks. ¡°Am so d you¡¯re fine¡± ¡°Who¡¯s he¡± Addison asked as they both averted their gaze to Sebastian, who has been quietly watching the great family reunion. Adia swore immediately she saw Sebastian, she was so overwhelmed with Addison recovery that she forgot Sebastian has been with them the whole time. ¡®oh shit¡¯ she cursed In her head loudly, how does she exin all these to Addison. ¡°Well¡­um Addison he¡­is¡± Adia stammered as she had no idea how she would exin all these to Addison, how would she tell her that she¡¯s now married and pregnant, she dugged her nails into her palms thinking of a good excuse. ¡°Am your brother-inw actually your sister¡¯s husband¡± Sebastian answered out of no where as Adia shot him a deadly re. ¡°Husband?¡± Addison shifted her gaze to Adia as she just couldn¡¯t understand what was going on. ¡°Actually yes Addison, look have some res, we¡¯ll talk about this when you¡¯re a lot better¡± Adia tried persuading as she really didn¡¯t want to talk about any of this. ¡°But Adia¡­¡± ¡°Addison listen to your sister and have some rest, hmmm¡± Sebastian interuptted walking up to her as he patted her head softly, as he smiled at her. Adia couldn¡¯t help but scoff inwardly cause she knew that was a fake smile. ¡°Ok¡± Addison finally obliged as Adia breathed a sign of relief. ***** Ace whistled as he walked over to a office on thest floor of the hospital casually. He got to a door as a walked in ¡°Well if it¡¯s not our almighty blood sucking doctor¡± Ace taunted as he walked over to a cushion sitting leisurely. ¡°Well if it¡¯s not Ace, who else would it be¡± a dark haired with beautiful brown eyesmented as he shed a smile at Ace. ¡°Hello friend ¡± ¡°Thest time I heard you were out of town with your brother, I heard you also visited Britaris, how was it, I heard you also killed the old pal Sammy¡± ¡°Well that¡¯s a lots of heard¡¯s for a doctor who has never left the four corners of this cities¡± Ace said sarcastically ¡°Well I have my ways friend, besides without my help word would have gotton out that there¡¯s a hell of blood suckers here¡±Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. ¡°But the almighty, eligible bachelor, handsome doctor who everydy would doe to have is also one of them¡± ¡°Also who would believe that Sebastian Roberts is also one of them, no one right?¡± He questioned dryly as they both burst outughing. ¡°Missed you pal¡± ¡°Yea same here, 9:00 o¡¯clock this evening at the bells, what do you say my treat¡± ¡°Sure, but no blood bags this time, I would really love sucking it out from the artery veins¡± ¡°Unless you don¡¯t kill anyone fine by me¡± ¡°That¡¯s why I can always count on you Evans Montenero¡± Ace said as Evans smiled at him revealing his cute dimples. ¡°Well friend, I think we have a problem, a fucking serious one at that¡± Ace said in a serious face as Evans face because tense having sensed something was wrong. ¡°And what might that be?¡± Evans questioned. ¡°Sebastian got a girl pregnant¡± ¡°Well that¡¯s meant to be good news, isn¡¯t it?¡± ¡°Not just any girl Montenero, she¡¯s a human¡± Ace broke as as Evans shoulders dropped, he wasn¡¯t expecting any of these. ¡°How¡¯s any of this possible?¡± ¡°I know Evans, that¡¯s why we need your help you¡¯re a skilled doctor, so we¡¯ll need you to help us with this, the girl needs to survive¡± ¡°I can¡¯t assure you Ace, we all know this has never happened, no human has ever survived a vampire child, but I¡¯ll see if hat I can do, just have to pick all the pieces together¡± Evans said as a ray of hope shone on Ace he knew he could always count on his best pal. ¡°Thanks Evans¡± ¡°Always wee¡± ¡°But there¡¯s another thing you need to do, this has to be kept confidential, no one needs to know¡± Ace warned in a stern voice as Evans got what he meant. ¡°Let me guess, my nosy little sister Kate, I assure you, your secret is safe, I wouldn¡¯t even let Kate an inch near her¡± Evans assured as Ace got up to hug him. ¡°Not just Kate, everyone, I mean all vampires for the now though, but especially Kate¡± ¡°No problem with me¡± ¡°Thanks pal¡± ***** ¡°What was that for?¡± Adia asked angrily as her and Sebastian walked over to his car. ¡°What was what?¡± Sebastian inquired feigning ignorance. ¡°You just told Addison that we¡¯re married¡± ¡°And we are, though not by choice but by circumstances¡± Sebastian concluded as Adia just ignored him. After standing for minutes as it seemed Sebastian was waiting for someone, Adia finally saw Ace and someoneing over, he was obviously a doctor as he was on ab coat but was undeniably handsome. ¡°Hey Sebastian¡± the man greeted jovially as it seemed he had the same Free spirit as Ace. ¡°Am Evans, doctor Evans Montenero and you must be..¡± he introduced himself to Adia as Sebastian just nodded at his greetings. ¡°Adia am Adia peters¡± Adia replied as they both shook hands, she couldn¡¯t believe she was standing face to face with the almighty doctor Evans and he was screamingly handsome. She wondered why all the men around Sebastian was all handsome, and guessed Sebastian was no ordinary person as he even gave Evans a cold shoulder. She knew little about Sebastian all she knew was that he was rich and called the shots. ¡°Ace take Adia home, I and Evans have something to talk about¡± Sebastian gave Ace a knowing look as Ace immediately understood what he meant. ¡°Let¡¯s go Adia¡± Ace gestured as he led Adia to the car. ¡°Ok, nice to meet you Mr Evans¡± ¡°Pleasure is mine and it¡¯s Evans, just Evans would fine¡± Evans shed a beautiful smile at her as Adia couldn¡¯t believe she was having some sort of familiarity with a person like him. She waved good bye as Ace got Into the car and drove off. ¡°Long time Sebastian, but I must say she looks a lot like Aisling¡± ¡°Shut the fuck up, you know I wouldn¡¯t mind beating you to a pulp right now¡± Sebastian warned In anger as they both watched the car drive away. WE NEED TO SAVE HER ¡°You know there¡¯s possibly nothing you can do about it Sebastian¡± Evans announced to Sebastian as they both settled down in Evans office while Evans handed over a ss of blood to Sebastian. ¡°Thanks I was already getting hungry¡± Sebastian as he took a sip but spat it out almost immediately. ¡°Animal blood, you¡¯ve got to be kidding me, I know you quit snapping necks but I never did, besides I heard you promise Ace a whole brunch as a reunion gift¡± ¡°Well I did and Ace is a friend, secondly he won¡¯t kill his prey unlike you, your prey rarely makes it out alive and we all know that¡± Sebastian scoffed at his remark as he stood up and made way for the door. ¡°Come on in you¡± Sebastian ordered at a female nurse that just happened to be passing by. The nurse ire smiled at the pleasure of being invited in by Sebastian. ¡°Yes sir am ire, how may I be off help¡± ire smiled sweetly at Sebastian as it purely seemed like she was trying to get on his good books not to mention her boss Doctor Evans, she¡¯s never been in his office not even his floor and she just happened to be running an errand. ¡°Didn¡¯t ask for your name, and I need your help, don¡¯t scream or move it¡¯s not going to hurt¡± ¡°Sebastian don¡¯t¡± Evans warned as he realized what Sebastian was trying to do, but it was toote as Sebastian has already sank his fangs on her neck. ¡°That¡¯s more like it¡± Sebastian eximed retracting his fangs before wiping his lips to remove any possible stain of blood. ¡°Forget everything you just saw, and you got your injury from a dog bite now go and make sure no one see your wound till it heals¡± Sebastianpelled as ire made her way out of the office. ¡°Now that¡¯s how you treat a guest Montenero¡± Sebastian smiled as he took his seat while Evans red at him. ¡°But you can¡¯t feed on my employees Hunters¡± ¡°I wonder how you¡¯re able to pull your restraint see that you work in a hospital so you possibly see blood everytime and you¡¯re still a vegetarian¡± ¡°Well I built my restraint well and can¡¯t take chances¡± ¡°Sometimes I wonder if Kate¡¯s truly your sister I mean you can¡¯t stand drinking from the neck and only feed on animals while your little sissy on the other hand wouldn¡¯t hesitate to snap her victims neck in two¡± Sebastian teased as Evans red at him, yes he was Kate elder brother but they surely had different personalities and perspective. While he loved saving lives with a little bit of humanity in him, Kate was the direct opposite that¡¯s why he hated her to the core. ¡°No wonder she always beat your ass up, she hell stronger than you, I¡¯d advise you go back to drinking human blood, you don¡¯t want a female to drag your position with you Montenero¡± Sebastian said as he held a serious expression this time, Kate is vicious and cunning you never know what she¡¯s up to. ¡°That¡¯s not your problem to worry about hunters it¡¯s mine, and I think we have a much bigger one at hand, why are you here?¡± Evans asked obviously tired of Sebastian¡¯s taunting, he has been trying to make him give in, in taking human blood and won¡¯t stop till Sebastian breaks the wall he¡¯s been building for years. Vampires are lot stronger when they take human blood that¡¯s why most vampirese and blend in the human world as they all leave their original home town Britaris to gain power. Kate¡¯s a twilight vampire same with Sebastian and the rest and they¡¯re meant to be the rulers of Britaris, Britaris has seven province with seven rulers each, the Montenero¡¯s, Hunters, Cahans which is Rowan¡¯s family being one of the seven. The other vampires are called minors cause they were turned by the twilight vampires. So there¡¯s definitely gonna be a power struggle, that¡¯s one of the reasons Sebastian needed a child. ¡°What do you want Sebastian?¡± Evans asked again as he wanted Sebastian out this instant. ¡°Well you earlier mentioned that there¡¯s nothing to do about Adia, but I think there is¡± Sebastian announced as Evans watched him with keen interest wondering what he knew about. ¡°How do you mean Sebastian, that has never happened in centuries¡± ¡°Well, they¡¯ve been a hybrid or two in history, I¡¯ll have Arion work on that, we¡¯ll have to find out everything about them¡± ¡°I haven¡¯t Even heard of a hybrid in years Sebastian, well the only thing I can do now is keep the girl on a close watch, you know things are gonna be hard once she reaches the sixth month¡± ¡°We have to save her Evans, she can¡¯t die¡± ¡°Do you like her Sebastian?¡± Evans asked quite perplexed that Sebastian was showing interest on a mere human, all he wanted was the child and the child¡¯s gonna be safe only the mother dies. ¡°No you know I don¡¯t, I just can¡¯t let her die, she¡¯s innocent, you have to find a way Evans¡± ¡°I¡¯ll try, but don¡¯t forget Sebastian the child has your blood, making him a twilight vampire too, do you think Adia can survive this, twilight vampires are more blood thirsty than the minors, you know¡± Evans warned as there was little or nothing he could do. Adia child¡¯s gonna start feeding on her once she clocks the sixth month, the baby is literally going to her blood till she dies.

Adia didn¡¯t mean to pry though as it was a marriage of convenience and she didn¡¯t have any right to know but she couldn¡¯t help her curiosity. ¡°Yes, Sebastian is my elder brother also with Arion, don¡¯t worry you¡¯ll met Arion soon¡± Ace added as he noticed Adia would already be wondering who Arion who. ¡°Bro.. ther wait brothers¡± Adia choked not able to couldn¡¯t believe Sebastian grew up with boys, she had to do more digging about the man she¡¯s married to and the best person to help her was Cora.

He must really hold a important position then. ¡°Yea brothers¡± Ace confirmed again his smile never wearing off. ¡°Oh my¡± ¡°You seem pretty shocked¡± ¡°Yes well wait¡­.. I can¡¯t believe it I mean¡± Adia burst outughing as Ace shed her a little smile. ¡°Well it¡¯s really unbelievable though but sorry to ask umm, how old is he?

He would have storm off to find her but he has been held back by the others telling him to have a little patience but that patience was already wearing off. ¡°Send message to the Montenero¡¯s and enquire if Aisling is there maybe she stopped by because of the rain¡± he ordered but he knew he was lying within himself Aisling wasn¡¯t someone who would stop by because of a stupid rain something was definitely off. ***** ¡°Sire words just came in about miss Aisling whereabouts¡± A servant reported as Sebastian sprang to his feet along side Rowan who hoped nothing has happened to his little sister. ¡°Spill¡± Sebastian ordered in a menacing tone that sent cold shivers dowm the guards spine. ¡°Miss Montenero was found severely injured at the coast of wartz and miss Cahan¡­ is she¡­¡± The guard stuttered at the thought of losing his tongue if he ever said thest words, as Everyone knew how the Lord loved thedy and how he wouldn¡¯t digest the information lightly. ¡°Just spill it you fool¡± Rowan growled at him as the guard shivered,¡¯who put me in this mess¡¯ he thought as he tried to speak buy fear always stopped him. How was he expected to answer this he was currently facing two angry lord¡¯s one a lover and the other a brother. He was definitely gonna lose his head today. The miss Aisling was not only a important figure in Huntersville but also in Cahan province, infact everyone loved her, she was kind in nature, peaceful and all. The guard fiddled with his sword nervously looking for how to break the news of the death of the preciousdy to these angry Lords. He would definitely not survive this. TRY LOVING HIM Just immediately Arion rushed in as he met the shaky guard fidgeting on whether to break the news to Sebastian. Sebastian was definitely gonna go berserk same with Rowan but there was nothing he could do at the moment. ¡°Sebastian we have a problem¡± Arion announced as he rushed in making Sebastian and Rowan nce at him as the guard breathed a sign of relief.This content is ? N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Kate was found half dead by the coast of wartz, and Aisling was reported dead¡± Arion broke the news as everyone stopped in their tracks. ¡°What did you just say?¡± Sebastian voice thundered as he rushed at Arion pinning him to the wall, making the guard very grateful at the moment cause he was not the one to break the news or his head would already be rolling on the floor. ¡°Take it easy Sebastian, her body couldn¡¯t be found, and considering the state Kate was in I guess they couldn¡¯t stand a chance against the rouge vampires¡± ¡°What the hell are you saying Arion, my sister¡¯s a twilight vampire, how could she not fight the rouge vampires or rather find her way out¡± this time it was Rowan who spoke out in disbelief, she can¡¯t be Dead. Wartz was the zone for rouge vampires that¡¯s why Rowan clearly warned Aisling not to go, nheless Aisling is a twilight vampire, it can¡¯t be that she¡¯s dead. ¡°Am so sorry Rowan¡­b..¡± ¡°I¡¯ll go find her she¡¯s not dead¡± Sebastian suddenly broke in as he flung Arion away, making his way out of the room. ***** PRESENT DAY ¡°And thest birthday Sebastian had till date¡± Ace concluded omitting the vampire part as Adia wiped the little tears that was already flooding her eyes. ¡°When was that? I mean when did this happen?¡± ¡°That should be 10 years ago I think¡± Ace lied as Adia nodded, she could not imagine how Sebastian felt at that moment cause she knew what it felt like to lose someone¡± ¡°When is his birthday again?¡± ¡°July 27th to I think, I mean I can¡¯t probably forget the day Aisling died and Sebastian doesn¡¯t remember that day as his birthday but Aisling memorial. Adia gasped in shock as Ace told her the date that was her birthday too. ¡°And that¡¯s sadly my birthday too, I mean I was born on the July 27th 1996 ¡± ¡°What!!¡± Ace squealed in shock before quickly concealing it that was actually the year Aisling passed on. ¡°But do you think Sebastian would acknowledge my efforts, I mean we¡¯re not in good terms, so he would be really angry if I get passed my boundaries don¡¯t you think?¡± Adia questioned as she really wanted her stay in that house to be a peaceful one and problem free, she needed to stay away from Sebastian as far as possible. ¡°Yea, I don¡¯t think Sebastian would hurt you, he may be cold but he has a heart¡± Ace assured shing Adia a cool smile. The actual truth was that Sebastian couldn¡¯t see Adia as she had a striking resemnce to Aisling and he would never hurt Aisling, that¡¯s the reason Sebastian was trying to keep her alive and if Adia tries celebrating his birthday, he could assure himself that Sebastian wouldn¡¯t hurt her. ¡°I don¡¯t mean to say this but you bear a striking resemnce to Aisling, my heart actually skipped a bit the first time I saw you¡± Ace confessed as Adia stared at his beautiful eyes in bewilderment. ¡°But why are you telling me these?¡± Adia asked in curiosity as she couldn¡¯t even understand why Arion was telling her things about Sebastian. ¡°Cause you¡¯re kind just like Aisling, pretty, resourceful and above I feel that you can change Sebastian¡± ¡°I don¡¯t understand what you mean¡± ¡°You can make Sebastian fall in love with you and you guys can live happily with your child, there¡¯s no need for separation an¡­¡± ¡°Look Ace, I really appreciate your kindness alot, I mean you¡¯re one hell of a friend you¡¯re nice and all, but I and Sebastian can¡¯t be a thing, you know that, he won¡¯t ept me and I wouldn¡¯t either¡± ¡°I can¡¯t tell Adia, but I just feel you guys are made for each other, I feel this is Sebastian second chance in falling in love an¡­.¡± Arion stopped in his tracks as he could feel Adia was already feeling ufortable. One thing about twilight vampires was that they all had their own special gifts and Ace¡¯s gift was to see the future, he could fore tell what is gonna happen in the future and he already knows that Adia and Sebastian are gonna fall for each other and have their child. But the problem was he couldn¡¯t tell Adia about this or Sebastian either, they just have to work their way through this and survive whatever is gonna happen to gain their happiness. ¡°Thanks so much Ace, thanks for the ride¡± Adia said as she smiled at Ace. ¡°Not a problem sister-inw anytime¡± Ace replied jovially as he realized he had spent too much time here. ¡°See you then¡± ¡°Adia, what are you doing here¡± Cora asked as she was justing back from work and happened to see Adia talking to someone and that someone was no other person than Ace. ¡®what the hell is he doing here?¡¯ Cora asked herself as she approached the both of them. ¡°Oh I Cora, I didn¡¯t know you were out¡± Adia said as Cora got to where they were, Ace had really taken a lot of her time. ¡°Yea I was justing in¡± Cora answered as she shot nces at Ace. ¡°Where are my manners, Ace this is cora and Cora meet Ace, Sebastian¡¯s brother, he actually dropped me off¡± ¡°Hi¡± ¡°Hello am Ace¡± Ace introduced himself as they both shook hands as Cora grunted. Was he really behaving as if they haven¡¯t met or was this some type of reunion or whatever, her and Ace used to be pretty close them before she left Britaris. But she can¡¯t really let Adia know that she knows him and his family, that would really take days of exnation. ¡°Good now that you¡¯ve met each other I hope you get along¡± Adia said cheerfully as they both smiled. ¡°See you soon Adia, Cora¡± Ace said as he headed for his car. ¡°Bye Ace see ya¡± Adia waved at him as he drove off. While her and Cora walked into the house. AUGUST 19TH 2007 ¡°Come on let¡¯s go in¡± Cora gestured as they both walked into the house. ¡°He¡¯s cute right?¡± Adia asked as Cora discarded her purse, before slumping on the couch. ¡°Yea¡± cora replied dryly. ¡°He¡¯s pretty nice unlike Seb and guess what they¡¯re others¡± Adia said as Cora nodded she was definitely talking about Arion and Rowan, these duo has been together for God knows how long. ¡°Hmm hmm, please get me some water Adia, am fucking exhausted¡± Cora groaned as Adia went to get the water. ¡°Here¡± Adia handed over the cup as Cora gulped down the water. Actually Cora was a turned vampire so she could live like a normal human, just that at the beginning of their transition it was usually rough as newly turned vampire has a lot of cravings for blood. ¡°So when are you moving in, I mean my newly married best friend¡± Cora gingerly said tickling Adia who was sitting beside her. ¡°Oh please we all know it¡¯s a marriage of convenience, no love¡± ¡°Just have some fun Adia, you can¡¯t go there living a boring life like you¡¯ve always done, catch some fun babe¡± Cora advised as adia ignored her. ¡°Besides your husband¡¯s rich, and don¡¯t worry about Addison, she can live with me for now, just go live your life¡± ¡°Thanks cora, you¡¯re really a good friend, you¡¯ve been there for me and Addison alot, I¡¯m really grateful¡± Adia appreciate as she hugged Cora. ¡°Anytime¡± ¡± Well Cora, I wanted to ask if there was anything you Know about Sebastian, I mean his status and all, guess who I met earlier today?¡± ¡°And who might that be?¡± Cora enquired as it seems like Adia is going to meet a hell lot of people, vampires and all not to talk of the ones that would want her dead because of Sebastian.This content is ? N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Evans Montenero¡± ¡°Wow!!¡± Cora eximed absent mindedly to sound surprised. She has met Evans Montenero a lot of times in the past and they even made out once that was when Arion rejected her love then, back in Britaris, when she was still a bad ass. ***** August 19th 2007 ¡°Rejected again¡± a sly voice sounded as Cora red at Evans who was wearing a smirk on his face. ¡°Oh shut up¡± Cora grunted as she gulped down the drink in her cup. ¡°More?¡± Evans asked raising a ss at her as they were currently in a bar, she hade here angrily after confessing her love to Arion but has been rejected yet again. It was no news that Cora Arthur was obsessed with Arion hunters one of the elites in Britaris and has been rejected over and over again. ¡°Yea¡± Cora replied pushing her cup towards Evans while he poured her a cup. She has decided to get drunk and forget all about Arion. ¡°You know getting drunk won¡¯t help you¡± Evans reasoned as his lips curved up in a mischievous smile. ¡°None of your business Mr Evans Montenero now if you don¡¯t mind¡± Cora grabbed the bottle from him filling her cup yet again. ¡°You know sometimes I consider you stupid, you just can¡¯t keep running after a guy I mean who does that, that¡¯s not your fault anyway, I think who ever turned you and drank from you took away your sense of reasoning¡± ¡°That was your father fool¡± Cora cursed loudly at Evans as he chuckled loudly. The elite vampires usually turn a few humans to vampires and Cora family were all turned by the Montenero¡¯s, her father was once a Noble before he decided to work under vampires and got his whole family turned. ¡°I think my father drank a hell lot of reasoning out of you, just get drunk and resume chasing after Arion tomorrow¡± ¡°I would never my love for him is gone, am done with him¡± ¡°You were never with him¡± Evans corrected as Cora red hard at him drowning in his cute face and his gorgeous blue eyes. ¡°Wanna have some fun?¡± Cora suddenly blurted out as Evans smiled revealing his cute dimples. ¡°Depending on the kind of fun you want, I can give lots of fun you know¡± ¡°Let¡¯s get a room, what do you think no stings attached¡± Cora suggested as Evans smile grew wider. ¡°As you wish¡± Cora finished her drink while Evans settled the bills, she has decided to forget all about Arion and move on, have some fun. And Evans was a perfect candidate for that, they didn¡¯t have feelings for each other, they¡¯re just hungry for fun, that¡¯s all. ***** ¡°Do you have a condom¡± Cora asked breaking away from the kiss. ¡°No, I¡¯ll go get some¡± Evans said pulling away but he was pulled back by Cora. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll take contraceptives after this hmmm¡± Cora concluded taking over his lips hungrily as they made out, their loud moans and voice of ecstasy filling the room. ***** Cora eyes sprang open as everything that happenedst night recollected into her brain slowly. She just gave her first time to Evans willing without a hint of regret. She groaned feeling a little tired as Evans mmed on her nonstop without stopping. A human wouldn¡¯t have survived this. ¡°Already up¡± a low but sexy voice broke her out from her reverie as she nodded. ¡°I¡¯ll go shower now¡± she walked out of the bed and walked into the bathroom to shower before leaving the hospital hotel but not before her and Evans had another hot sex. And that continued for years her and Evans making out without any feelings, she basically became Evans only woman in bed before she finally Britaris to live amongst humans and yearster she heard of a very famous doctor in town Evans Montenero but they never crossed path as she made sure to avoid him. ***** PRESENT DAY Cora broke out from her thoughts before staring at Adia, she knew things are not going to be the same again because of Adia as everyone in her past are all flooding back. ¡°Alright am hungry, I¡¯ll make something¡± Adia said rushing to the kitchen while Cora followed behind her. ¡°I¡¯ll go freshen up too¡± cora yelled before rushing to her room. UNCLE SEBASTIAN IS NICE Adia threw the bed covers as she scrambled out of the bed, she¡¯s supposed to go to the hospital today and she hasn¡¯t even prepared food for Addison. ¡°Keep it down Adia¡± Cora¡¯s grumpy voice sounded as she moved round the bed. ¡°I have to make breakfast for Addison, who the hell turned off the rm?¡± Adia asked as it was obviously Cora who did it, she spent the previous night in Cora¡¯s ce and she set the rm to wake up early but Cora turned it off now it¡¯s already past 7 in the morning. ¡°Well, I did, I wanted to have a good Adia, and don¡¯t worry about Addison, the hospital has good food and don¡¯t forget she¡¯s a VIP patient¡± Cora reminded her before closing her eyes again to embrace the warm hands of a good sleep. ¡°That¡¯s where you¡¯re wrong Cora, I¡¯m sure she misses home food, so I¡¯ll make her some hmm¡± Adia concluded dashing out of the room to make some food for Addison. ¡°Now what do we have here?¡± Adia asked no one in particr as she rumbled through some food stuffs, she finally opted for light food since Addison was still recovering, so she decided to make soup and porridge with some lean meat. While the food was getting ready she rushed to the bathroom to brush her teeth, beforeing back to the kitchen. She was still in shock on how her life has turned out, she¡¯s now pregnant and married while her little sister she thought she¡¯s gonna spend lots of time with will be living with her Best friend. And to crown it all she knew nothing about her mystery husband, except the fact that he¡¯s rich and has high connections. ¡°When are you moving to Sebastian¡¯s ce?¡± Cora asked from behind startling her. ¡°I don¡¯t know yet, he mentioned he was gonna pick me up, but didn¡¯t mention any thing about time¡± ¡°You can call him¡± ¡°That¡¯s if I have his number, I basically know nothing about him¡± Adia said as Cora didn¡¯t seem surprised, that was Sebastian afterall. ¡°Let¡¯s just say that¡¯s because you just got married and haven¡¯t had the time for each other, I¡¯m pretty sure you guys will get along¡± Cora encouraged knowing that it was hopeless, Sebastian will never get along with any woman asides from histe Ex. ¡°Whatever not my problem¡± Adia scoffed tasting the soup on heat. ¡°Well I was able to gather a few information about him, he¡¯s Sebastian hunters, you already know that, he¡¯s the CEO of the power-co-op, and he¡¯s just any CEO, he¡¯s stinking rich and one of the most eligible bachelors or formerly one of the most eligible bachelors, cause he¡¯s married now and to you¡± Cora informed as Adia gasped, of course she knew of power-co-, op one of the mostrgest business firms in the city.

PERVERT ¡°How have you been?¡± Evans asked, putting on a stern look on his face as Cora grunted. She has seen this look a lot of times in the past. This minute he¡¯s looking all cheerful and all and the next minute he¡¯ll be looking calm and serious. Cora often wondered if he had some serious mood swings. ¡°Better¡± Cora spat rudely at him. ¡°Hmm, well I haven¡¯t been better, couldn¡¯t stop thinking about you Cora¡± he confessed this time looking up with a bright smile on his face. ¡®What a maniac¡¯ Cora scoffed as he was doing it again. Toying with her emotions. She had no idea what to call it, flirting or whatever. ¡°Actually thesest year¡¯s have been my best¡± Cora retorted in a grumpy voice as she fixed her blouse not wanting to cause suspicions. ¡°Lies, and I managed to turn you on, just in five minutes after we met for the first time in a long time¡± Evans said meaningfully scribbling words on a piece of paper. ¡°Well that¡¯s what you¡¯re good at, seductions¡± Cora med at him as his lips curved up again. ¡°Do you wanna hook up some time? I¡¯ll always be free babe¡± Evans invited wearing a mischievous smile this time around as Cora¡¯s face flushed. She would be lying if she said she didn¡¯t want him too, him inside her, his enticing scent and all, she wanted to feel all that again. Just say they were the best In having sex rtionship without any strings attached one was always there for the other whenever needed and no one ever professed his or her love throughout the whole time. Though Evans would jokingly flirt at times, it was all just for fun. ¡°Look Evans, the Cora who knew before is no longer the Cora of before, people change, you know¡± Cora said as all Evans did was nod. ¡°Well you didn¡¯t, I saw that in your face, you know a while ago, I¡¯m sure you¡¯re more hungrier for sex than ever, just that you became more stubborn, no one can ever make you feel that way asides from me Cora¡± Evans murmured while he continued scribbling on the paper. Cora tried straining her eyes to catch a glimpse but couldn¡¯t, ¡®what¡¯s he up to again this time around?¡¯ Cora asked no one in particr. ¡°Feel free toe around hmm¡± ¡°I¡¯ll be leaving now, I have to go to Adia¡± Cora chimed in dryly as she had to leave this ce immediately, Evans was definitely trying to awake the lustful desires in her and he was already close. ¡°She¡¯s fine, she¡¯s with Sebastian and thest person you would ever want to meet¡± Evans informed, dropping the penzily on the table indicating he was done with whatever he was doing on that paper.N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. ¡°Who?¡± Cora enquired wondering who it is. ¡°The person you followed around the most like a dog and they¡¯re just a few kilometers from this door¡± ¡°You fool¡± Cora cursed loudly at him. ¡°I missed that word ¡®fool¡¯ it definitely suits your mouth a lot and surprisingly that little mouth can do lots of wonders¡± Evans taunted his smile never wearing off, revealing his cute dimples as his beautiful blue eyes gleamed at cora. ¡°I hate to admit b¡­¡± The door sprang open before Cora couldplete her sentence as a sturdy built man walked him another behind him, and that was the cute blonde she spent years obsessing over andstly Adia who was holding a stic bag probably Addison¡¯s medicine. ¡®these persky males , so annoying¡¯ Cora thought. ¡°Arion, long time no see¡± Evans greeted momentarily as Arion swayed to the nearby cushion to have his seat. ¡°Yea Montenero, how have you been?¡± Arion gaze swept to Cora before he averted it as if she was never there. ¡°Hmm hmm¡± ¡°How have you been managing this?¡± Arion referred to the hospital as he looked round the office. ¡°Pretty well, what are you doing here, didn¡¯t expect to see you?¡± Evans questioned as Arion wasn¡¯t the kind of person that mixed up with people. ¡°I was dragged here by him¡± he pointed his gaze to Sebastian who was busy fiddling with his phone ignoring them. Cora walked up to Adia while the males engrossed in conversations except one of course. ¡°Are you done here, if you¡¯re done we can get going¡± Cora whispered softly to Adia who agreed immediately with her. Adia swept her gaze to her newfound husband who cared less about what was going on in the room. ¡°See you soon Evans, I¡¯ll get going now¡± Adia waved at Evans who waved back at her. ¡°Bye Adia, see you soon Cora¡± Evans stated with a hint of mischief in his tone. ¡°I¡¯ll drop you off¡± Sebastian offered as he got up to his feet, as Adia could do nothing but agree. ¡°Let¡¯s go¡± he gestured walking out of the office while Adia and Cora followed behind him. ¡°Where did you meet Sebastian?¡± Cora asked as he was a few meters away as he walked to the elevator. ¡°Bumped into him at the pharmacy alongside that rude jerk,¡± Adia answered, referring to Arion as the rude jerk. Cora couldn¡¯t agree less for that¡¯s how he is. Adia really didn¡¯t get along well with Arion as he was the only unfriendly person alongside Sebastian amongst all the people she had met. She figured he was the other brother. They both walked into the elevator where Sebastian was waiting patiently for them before pushing a button the moment they got in. Her and Sebastian didn¡¯t have much of a conversation since they met, he talked rarely, the only time he has spoken to her was the day they got married and once since today and that was when he asked if she was doing fine which she knew he cared little or less about. ¡°Umm Adia I¡¯ll go in my car, take care¡± Cora said as she left for the direction she packed her car. ¡°Get in¡± Sebastian gestured as Adia stared at Cora fading Silhouette. Adia got into the car as Sebastian had already gotten in before he zoomed off. Cora unlocked the security gadgets In her car when she noticed a piece of paper on the driver¡¯s seat and the first thing that came to her was Evans smiling mischievously. She opened the paper and her face immediately fanned red the moment she saw the contents. ¡°So that¡¯s what this maniac was busy drawing?¡± Cora muttered as if it was a drawing of lingerie with a note under it. ¡®This was thest piece you left at my ce and it has been kept safe since then, feel free toe for it, babe¡­.. ¡®wink¡¯ Evans¡¯ she read out as she cursed at him, not only that, he also left his business card. ¡®pervert¡¯ ¡®is he seriously thinking I¡¯ll call him?¡¯ Cora grunted as she got into her car speeding off from the hospital premises. STUCK Adia sat opposite Sebastian enjoying the quiet ride, no one has spoken to the other since they left the hospital. She has been thinking on how to start a conversation, because she had a favor to ask of him. ¡°Uhh hmm¡± she cleared her throat trying to start a conversation. ¡°Speak¡± Sebastian thankfully motioned for her to speak, making things a lot easier.N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. ¡°Well thanks for earlier, Addison told me about the gifts, I am really grateful¡± Adia thanked Sebastian who didn¡¯t say a word. ¡°Also I have a favor to ask of you¡± Adia continued but he still didn¡¯t respond and she just took his silence, indicating for her to go on. ¡°Well I just wanted to ask for some time, like a week or so¡± ¡°For what?¡± Sebastian asked as he swept his gaze at her this was the first time he¡¯s faced her since they left the hospital. He stared nkly at the ck haired hazel eyes just like histe Ex¡¯s. He wondered how Rowan could make such a huge mistake as anyone who knows Aisling would think she was the one. But if you think a good look there was actually a difference between them, While Aisling held a strong demeanor, this one looked petite and weak. Also the eye colors, Aisling hazel eyes were lighter than hers, Adia eyes were darker and the hair also, Aisling had dark wavy hair but Adia hair was straight and silky and definitely longer. Andstly she¡¯s human while Aisling was a vampire, so this was enough proof that they were both different. The only thing he would confess they have inmon is their undeniable beauty. He could remember the amount of emotions that piled up within him, that day at the hotel, he didn¡¯t know what he was feeling at the moment but he was able to mask off any emotions and managed to keep a stoic face, if only he knew she would end up pregnant, he would have avoided it at all costs, but now the deed is all done. All they had to do now was to make sure she was safe. ¡°To take care of Addison, I¡¯ll just watch over her for a week to ensure she¡¯s okay¡± Adia answered, biting her lips nervously hoping he would agree. They¡¯ve nned that she would move into his ce today but she just wanted to spend a little time with Addison before she finally moves out. ¡°Ok¡± came the nonchnt reply as Sebastian brought his gaze back on the road. ¡®that¡¯s all, he agreed afterall¡¯ ¡°Thanks¡± Adia appreciated but was ignored as always. Momentster, Adia heard Sebastian cursing as the car stopped abruptly. ¡°Damn it¡± He cursed as he stormed out of the car walking to the bo as he opened trying to see if he could fix the problem. Adia sat inside the car as she watched him trying to fix the problem, she would have asked if he needed help but he would ignore her again but nheless she decided to ask. ¡°Do you need any help?¡± She offered as she got out of the car. ¡°Do yourself a favor by going back inside, I¡¯ll take care of this¡± he replied as Adia smacked her lips sliding into the car. ¡®At least he answered¡¯ she thought as she watched him trying to fix the problem. She watched as he wiped beads of sweat from his forehead while he continued working on the car, looking so damn hot and handsome. After what seemed like ages, Sebastian finally gave up deciding to try another alternate and call for help. He dialed a number only to find out there was no reception here. ¡°Damn you to hell¡± he cursed he flung his phone away while Adia just stared nkly at him, admiring how cute he looks when he swears. ¡°Stop staring¡± he said with a hint of warning in his voice, gritting his teeth in anger making Adia look away immediately. Adia looked outside the window watching the quiet road, her house was located at the outskirts of the town, so people hardly took this particr route and it was kinda unsafe at night to crown it all her house was so still very far from here. She bit her lower lip in regret, if she had just rejected the ride none of this would have happened. Now Sebastian is fucking angry, she just hoped he wouldn¡¯t take his anger out on her, but it was her fault anyway, ¡®whatever¡¯ she thought, he volunteered to drop her anyway. Sebastian stormed out of the car trying to find awork service all to no avail. Adia checked the time in phone and discovered it was already past six, it would be very hard to find a taxi by this time. ¡°I suggest we continue walking till we find help, there¡¯s no reception in this part of the city¡± Adia muttered slowly as she got out of the car as Sebastian shot her a deadly re, but she cared less, this ce was unsafe and it felt as if it would rain soon. ¡°I don¡¯t think that would be a good ideas, this ce looks deserted and it will be hard before we find a ce, so stay put till a car passes by¡± Sebastian said as Adia obediently went into the car, this was the the first time Sebastian has said this much to her. Few minutester they were weed by a strong wind causing Sebastian to rush into the car. ¡°It¡¯s gonna rain soon¡± he announced ¡®i know, that¡¯s the reason I suggested we left here earlier¡¯ Adia said sarcastically in her head as she just nodded at him obediently. ¡°I¡¯m sure we¡¯ll find help soon¡± Sebastian confidently as Adia agreed with him, nodding her head. Adia inhaled deeply as she rubbed her palms together, the rain drizzled making light sounds on the car as she was currently alone with Sebastian her so called husband who wouldn¡¯t even spare her a nce and was busy with his phone trying to find something positive, but Adia knew it would be of no use, he¡¯s never gonna find a goodwork service here. But if she tried reasoning with him he would either ignore her or shut her up, so she decided to mind her business and wait till helpes. And for some strange reason she was feeling so cold, she continuously rubbed her palms together inhaling deeply. Sebastian noticed her movements as he finally turned to face her ¡®is she cold?¡¯ Sebastian asked no one in particr as he studied her. THIRSTY The peters all had a hereditary ofmon cold and pneumonia that has been passed on for generations to generations. That was one of the things that led to Addison¡¯s cancer of the blood leukemia, and when Addison was younger, she had quite a lot of dealings with pneumonia. But Adia has never really had a serious cold as she was hardly affected by it, but now she¡¯s never felt this much cold before. ¡°Are you alright?¡± Sebastian enquired as his watchful eyed observed her. ¡°Yea, I am fine, just a little cold¡± Adia muttered softly as she ran her hands through her body, she was wearing just a t-shirt so it wasn¡¯t helping matters at all. The fact all the car windows were locked was not even helping, in the past, she has been able to withstand themon cold but now it¡¯s hitting her badly. She huddled up her self for warmth but it was not even effective at all. ¡°You¡¯re clearly not okay¡± Sebastianmented as leaned closer to check her temperature but Adia reacted by moving backwards the car window. ¡°I don¡¯t bite and I have seen it all before¡± he shamelessly said cing his palms on her fever, Adia who was shivering had no time for his nastyment. ¡°You¡¯re having a cold, here have my jacket¡± he pulled off his jacket as he handed it over to her, thankfully it was a thick jacket so it would do a lot of good. ¡°What about you¡¯ll get cold¡± Adia murmured as he smacked his lips frustratingly. ¡°Shut up and think about yourself for once¡± he advised throwing the jacket at her, they were currently in a deserted ce, and Adia was already looking so pale as if she would die soon. ¡°Thanks¡± Adia muttered putting on the jacket slowly as his enriched scent wafted through her nostrils, he smelt so good. The jacket worked little or no wonder as she was already shattering her teeth. ¡°Very well, that¡¯s not working¡± Sebastian eximed as he thought of another alternate, they were currently in the middle of nowhere stuck in the rain.N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. A idea immediately struck him, he pulled off his shoes followed by his socks while Adia watched in amusement. ¡°What are you doing?¡± Adia asked in bewilderment. ¡°Helping you silly¡± he replied grabbing her two legs without giving Adia room for protest. He pulled off the ts she was putting on and reced them with his thick socks before helping her back with the shoes. ¡°Thanks¡± she murmured shyly the angle that they were both in now was a little embarrassing. She brought her legs back down before Sebastian took her hands. ¡°What are you doing?¡± She stuttered immediately his walm hands touched hers. ¡°Keeping you warm, you¡¯re pregnant¡± came his curt reply as he rubbed her palms together. ¡°Do you usually catch a cold this serious?¡± Sebastian asked ¡°No, it runs in my family but I¡¯ve never been this cold, in my life, it¡¯s kinda unusual¡± Adia exined while Sebastian noted everything down, nning to ask Evans, if it has anything to do with her pregnancy. ¡°I see¡± Sebastian looked outside the window and noticed the rain was alreadying down, ¡®just a few minutes more¡¯ he thought as he continued keeping her warm. Adia inhaled sharply, shifting ufortably from time to time, she watched Sebastian with interest as he look engrossed in keeping warm. ¡®so cute¡¯ Adia admired stealing nces at him. About five minutester, Sebastian started feeling ufortable as he felt his throat itch, HE WAS FUCKING HUNGRY. He rushed to the hospital to the hospital earlier and didn¡¯t have the chance to feed. He never nned for this anyway, all he nned was to drop Adia off and grab a human on his way back, now¡¯s he¡¯s stuck with Adia, thirsty, and no hope of feed anytime soon. ¡°Are you okay?¡± Adia asked concern as she felt uneasiness from him. ¡°Am fine just thirsty¡± he forced a smile grabbing a bottle of water, gulping the contents down. If it was any other person, he would have already sank his fangs in their throat, but this was Adia, he had promised not topel or hurt her, he even warned the others againstpelling her, so he can¡¯t go against his rules not now. His throat itches badly as he tried keeping his cool. ¡°Are you sure you are fine?¡± Adia asked again because she felt his hands getting cold and he¡¯s kind off looking pale. ¡°Yea am good¡± Sebastian replied retracting his hands from hers, knowing his technique wasn¡¯t working as he was getting cold himself. ¡°Look, I¡¯ll be back, make sure you don¡¯t leave this ce¡± he warned dashing into the darkness before Adia could even protest. The rain was already over, but everywhere still felt chilly. Adia used Sebastian¡¯s jacket to wrap herself more since it was kind of too big for her, while she waited patiently for him, inhaling his sweet smell. ***** Sebastian roamed the woods looking for an animal to feed on at least to sustain himself a little, but there was a little hope as it just finished raining and most of the animals would probably be into hiding. Hope shone on him, when he saw headlightsing from the other side if the road, he leaped to the lonely road as he waited for the iing vehicle. ¡°Hey, asshole get out from my way¡± the slightly drunk yelled as his vehicle stopped in front of Sebastian, who didn¡¯t move a inch. ¡°Get out of the way ass¡± the drunk staggered out of his vehicle as he approached Sebastian angrily. ¡°Shut up¡± Sebastian said dryly as he held the man¡¯s neck tightly, this drunk is gonna drive home but first he needs to feed. ¡°Let¡¯s me go¡± the drunk driver struggled but Sebastian held him more tight starling the drunk by the amount of strength he possessed. ¡°Now don¡¯t scream or move, you¡¯re having a nice time, and you¡¯ll meet a good friend soon, who you¡¯ll drive home¡± Sebastianpelled before sinking his fangs on the drunk man¡¯s neck, making sure not to kill him. ¡°Now what¡¯s your name?¡± He asked retracting his fangs whilst he wiped the blood off his lips. ¡°Bill¡± the man answered obediently like a puppet. ¡°Now bill you¡¯re just a good Samaritan who happened to meet a stranded friend who you decided to help and drive home, hmm¡± Sebastian smiled mischievously patting the man¡¯s back slowly. ¡°Let¡¯s go someone¡¯s cold¡± he slipped into the car as Bill got into the driver¡¯s seat as he drove off. TEA ¡°Adia shivered as her teeth shattered, it actually felt like death. Sebastian told her to wait whilst he got help, but she¡¯s been waiting for quite some time and Sebastian was no where to be seen, or did he abandon her at thest hour, she was fucking freezing and was already having problems breathing. ¡®did he really leave me here?¡¯ Adia thought as she trembled, maybe Sebastian has ran off to get help for himself and left her to freeze to death. ¡°Monster, you¡¯re just a cold statue without a heart¡± she cursed loudly through gritted teeth, she¡¯s been lying here for more up to Thirty minutes now and her so called husband is no where to be found. ¡®or is he dead too¡¯ this part of the city was considered dangerous at night and it was already past eight, maybe he was attacked ¡®oh poor Seb¡¯ she whimpered sadly as a year dropped from her eyes. Different thoughts were currently running through her head now, and she¡¯s someone really high on emotions. She blinked her eyes several times trying to fight the drowsiness and maybe find help, somewhere, that was when she noticed a sturdy built silhouette approaching. ¡®who the hell is that or have theye to take me too¡¯ Adia sobbed quietly as the person approached, soon the lights from the head mirror of Bill¡¯s car caught her attention, that was when she caught a glimpse of her husband¡¯s heavenly face approaching her. He came for her, he actually came for her, she watched as he approached her. ¡°Are you alright?¡± He asked as she nodded weakly. ¡°Were you able to find help?¡± ¡°Hmm¡± Sebastian nodded slowly as he was busy fiddling with some things he needed before me going to Adia. ¡°Come on I¡¯ll carry you¡± Sebastian offered cing his phone inside Adia bag alongside other stuffs. He lifted her up in a bridal style ensuring she¡¯s properly covered before making way for Bill¡¯s car. Adia buried herself in his warm embrace as he took her to the car. ¡°Who¡¯s that?¡± ¡°A friend¡± came his curt reply. He tucked her in, in the back sit, sliding in after her before shutting the door. Bill started the ignition switch before driving slowly. Adia who was still buried in Sebastian¡¯s arms, wondered how he was feeling. Before he left her, he was not looking so good, but now he¡¯s looking refreshed wearing an unbothered look. ¡°Hello am Bill, you must be Adia nice to meet ya¡± Bill introduced himself cheerfully making Sebastian grunt inwardly. He wanted some peace and quiet and totally forgot topel Bill to be quit throughout the ride, he only told him to be nice and he was a friend, that¡¯s all. ¡°Yes, thanks so much Bill¡± ¡°Anything for a friend¡± Bill answered smiling at Adia. Adia was feeling a little refreshed since Bill put on the warmer in his car and Sebastian¡¯s embrace was also providing warmth. ¡®He¡¯s been so quiet throughout, is he exhausted?¡¯ Adia thought craning her neck to see if he was asleep but his eyes were shut. Adia took that precious time to admire this handsome God, his full pink lips looked so enticing, his scent andstly height. He was so tall and handsome that any girl would drool over him. ¡°Stop staringdy¡± he warned with his eyes still closed, Adia quickly adjusted herself and averted her gaze, making herselffortable in his arms while she enjoyed the ride. ***** ¡°Thanks so much Bill, you¡¯re a life saver¡± Adia appreciated as Bill drove off. She was still in Sebastian¡¯s arms who carried her inside the small house. ¡°Your house is so small¡± Sebastianined bitterly as his eyes craned the small but neat house. The house waspletely dark, probably the power was out, but Sebastian could see quiet clearly with his vampiric side. ¡°I¡¯ll go see if I can get the power on¡± Adia offered as she made way to leave his arms, but he held her even tighter. ¡°Stay put, I¡¯ll take care of that¡± he whispered to her making way to her room using her scent to find his way.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. ¡°How did you..?¡± Adia asked utterly confused. ¡°Cause this¡¯s the only room in your house¡± Sebastian reasoned dropping her on the bed. ¡°But it¡¯s dark¡± ¡°I have good eyesight you know¡± ¡°But¡­.¡± ¡°Shhhh¡± Sebastian shut her up tucking her in bed. ¡°Have some rest, you know your present situation is not good for the baby¡± Sebastian reasoned as Adia nodded slowly. The baby that¡¯s right, he¡¯s only caring because of the baby. ¡°I¡¯ll be back, I¡¯ll see if I can get the power on¡± Sebastian murmured before sliding away from the bedroom. After performing some little tricks, he managed to get the power back on making the whole room light up. He returned to the bedroom where he met Adia cuddling her self up. ¡°Thanks for today¡± Adia appreciated softly. ¡°Hmm¡± he answered working on his phone trying to reach Rowan. Adia watched him silently, his clothes was slightly wet and stucked to his body showing his taunt muscles, Adia could see his tattoo perking out from his hands, she couldn¡¯t decipher what the tattoo was since he was still wearing his shirt. ¡°I¡¯ll be back¡± Sebastian said as he strode out of the room. He found his way to the kitchen wanting to make tea for Adia, he boiled some water on a kettle before dialing a number. ¡°Hey Sebastian, where have you been? Seems like you¡¯ve been enjoying the weather with your little wifey¡± a voice peered our from the phone making Sebastian scoff loudly. ¡°Oh shut up Evans, I think we have a problem¡± ¡°And what¡¯s that?¡± ¡°We got stuck in the rain and¡­. um she said she never felt this cold before, so I want you to check if it has anything to do with the pregnancy¡± Sebastian informed whispering softly. ¡°On it, I¡¯ll let you know¡± Evans answered enthusiastically. ¡°And also I¡¯ve texted Rowan her address, you¡¯re gonnae with him, ande with some drugs¡± Sebastian ordered as he checked the water that was boiling. ¡°For what, you can juste home?¡± ¡°My clothes are kind of wet and my car broke down and i can¡¯t possibly leave Adia alone she¡¯s freezing¡± Sebastian exined only to hear a loud chuckle from the other side, Sebastian was pretty sure Evans would be wearing a wide grin on his face. ¡°Woah, looks like someone¡¯s in love¡± ¡°Shut up asshole and get your fucking ass here immediately,stly am just being caring, that¡¯s all, no strings attached¡± Sebastian stated, bringing out cups and other tea ingredients. ¡°What are you doing?¡± Evans asked immediately he heard the sound of rustling cups. ¡°Making tea¡± came the Curt reply. ¡°Tea!!!!!¡± Evans eximed but never got to finish his words as Sebastian hung up the call. A DEAL Sebastian finished making and served a perplexed Adia who found it hard to digest his act of kindness. She gulped down the tea slowly and morefortably since Sebastian has long left the room. Sebastian walked round Adia sitting room looking round the room, he strode over to where a picture framey, picking up the picture frame, he saw it was a little Adia who was probably over twelve, her sister and her parents. Sebastian studied the picture recollecting the fact that Rowan has mentioned before that her parents were Dead. He observed the picture taking note of how happy Adia looked. He sat on the cushionfortably waiting patiently for Rowan and Evans to arrive, not failing to take note on how poorly Adia lives. ***** ¡°H, Sebastian¡± a deep husky voice called causing Sebastian to stand up from the chair. ¡°Keep it down will you¡± Sebastian said dryly making way for Evans and Rowan toe in. ¡°Here, the drugs and you clothes¡± Rowan handed a bag over to Sebastian who grabbed it from him. ¡°Guess she was really poor¡± Rowanmented not failing to notice the poor condition of the house which looked neat at least. ¡°I agree¡± ¡°None of your business¡± Sebastian spat at them pulling his damp clothes off. ¡°Shit have some shame Sebastian, she can Walk in anytime¡± Evans taunted at the shameless Sebastian who ignored his remark, putting on his clothes.This content is ? N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Were you able to get anything?¡± Sebastian asked after he was Done with his clothes dumping the damp ones in the bag. ¡°Yes, but the results are not pretty good¡± Evans announced lowering down his tone, as Sebastian¡¯s brow furrow. This time it was Rowan who spoke as Sebastian frowned causing deep lines on his forehead. ¡°Well the cause of her sudden cold is because of the pregnancy¡± ¡°How does amon cold rtes to a pregnant woman?¡± Sebastian enquired waiting for a good exnation. ¡°Well, since she¡¯s a human carrying a vampire child, we all know her body would not be able to sustain the child¡¯s nutrients¡± ¡°So??¡± ¡°How do I put this, alright, just imagine this is the first stage of a disease¡± ¡°She¡¯s not affected by a disease¡± Sebastian fired at Evans who was taken aback by his sudden concerns. ¡°I Know, but she¡¯s technically sick, so the first problem for a human carrying a vampire child is that, their body will get exposed to some certain illness, especially the ones in their gene, just like this cold, you know..¡± Evans inhaled sharply before going on with his speech. ¡°Since she has the gene in her blood, she¡¯ll get down with cold more often from now on, in other words Adia is no different from a sickle cell anemia patient, who gets sick all the time¡± Evans concluded as Sebastian finally understood what he was talking about. ¡°So what are you gonna do about?¡± Sebastian questioned as Evans sat down on a nearby cushion. ¡°Look over her like a patient of course, because as time goes on, it will all get worse, so just look over her like a normal patient and maintain a clean hygiene¡± Evans informed picking up a doll from a nearby table. ¡°Come on Sebastian, no need to get worked up, you don¡¯t like her remember, or are you beginning to.. you know¡± Rowan said with a hint of mischief in his voice, obviously wanting to see Sebastian¡¯s response. ¡°Not at all, just doing what a normal human would do¡± ¡°You¡¯re not a human¡± Evans stressed out resulting to a re from Sebastian. ¡°True, but I have a heart¡± ¡°No you don¡¯t¡± Evans stressed again as Sebastian shot deadly res at him. ¡°Shut up fool, she¡¯s pregnant and it wouldn¡¯t be nice for me to let her die, you and I Know I feel nothing am just trying to be careful and please I don¡¯t want to ever hear about feelings or whatsoever¡± Sebastian warned with a note of finality in his voice as Evans grinned sheepishly. ¡® you¡¯re right, you feel nothing but not for long¡¯ Evans thought wearing a mischievous smile, he had his whole n at hand, Sebastian would definitely fall for Adia. He will make sure to see to that and ensure she lives. ***** Adia heard hushed tones from her sleep as her eyes sprang open in alert, she was already feeling a little better after taking the tea and since she had a short nap, but she still felt a little weak but better than before. Adia wondered if Sebastian was still around and if he brought visitors given that he left the room after serving her tea and she fell asleep moments after that, she just had to see for her self. She got up from the bed slowly walking quietly and steadily to the sitting room. ¡°Shh, she¡¯sing¡± Sebastian murmured as he had already caught her scent and also heard her footsteps. ¡°Hello Adia¡± Evans waved at her revealing his cute dimples immediately Adia walked in. ¡°Oh hi Evans, how did you get here¡± Adia asked startled, but Evans was not the only one here with Sebastian but another familiar face. ¡°Came here as fast as I could, you see, Sebastian sounded so worried and demanded I came over immediately¡± Evans chimed in emphasizing on the word ¡®worried¡¯ as Sebastian scoffed silently. ¡°Why??¡± Adia asked confused. ¡°Oh said you had a cold, but you look fine, I guess it was no so serious as he sounded¡± ¡°I see¡± Adia face fanned red at the thought that Sebastian cared for her, while Rowan on the other hand just shook his head slowly that Adia was falling for Evans schemes. ¡°Here, have your medicine, the prescription is written in there¡± Sebastian offered her the medicine as Adia muttered a thank you. ¡°We¡¯re leaving¡± Sebastian announced suddenly. ¡°So soon¡± ¡°Yes, Adia I¡¯m sure you¡¯re okay now, I¡¯ll send a nurse over tomor¡­¡± ¡°No am fine, it¡¯s just a Cold¡± Adia rejected politely. ¡°As you wish¡± Sebastian blurted out as he made way for the door. ¡°I¡¯ll be in the car¡± he said leaving the room as Adia stood confused, what¡¯s up with him, he was so caring a moment ago and now, he¡¯s back to his Cold self. ¡°Take care Adia¡± Rowan said shifting his gaze to Evans indicating they should leave. ¡°I¡¯ll be with you soon, go on¡± Evans said as Rowan red at him, wondering what the sly fox is up to but nheless he left the ce, knowing he wouldn¡¯t hurt her. ¡°Thanks for today Evans¡± ¡°It was nothing and don¡¯t mind Sebastian he has serious mood swings, but he really cares alot¡± Evans coaxed cing his hands on her shoulders. ¡°But I¡¯ll need something from you?¡± ¡°And what¡¯s that?¡± Adia asked gleefully ready to help with anything as Evans had been so nice to her since they met. ¡°A contact, hmmm, what do you say?¡± Evans raised a brow at her smiling widely. PROMISE Cora scrambled on the bed grunting loudly wondering who the intruder was. ¡°Hello¡± she muttered with a sleepy voice. ¡°Hello love¡± a deep husky intimidating voice sounded in her ears as her eyes sprang open the moment she recognized the owner of the voice. ¡°You, how did you?¡± Cora stuttered utterly confused on how Evans got her number. ***** Adia rushed to the door immediately her doorbell rang, she knew it was Cora as Cora had texted her earlier, informing her that she wasing. ¡°How are you feeling Adia?¡± Cora asked immediately as Adia opened the door as she hugged her tightly. Evans told her that Adia was not feeling too well and the main cause, she felt so bad for her friend who was suffering and wasn¡¯t even aware of the cause. Adia was literally being fooled by everyone around her, though they sincerely cared for her, because she hade to believe Sebastian and his cohorts will never hurt Adia and had her best interest at heart, but at least she needed to know that she was dying and not be left in the dark. Adia will definitely not take it if she everes to know of it she will definitely break down if she finds out the people she trusted were all hiding a big secret from her including her best friend. ¡°Am fine now, the drugs Evans gave was effective ¡± ¡°Am so d you¡¯re fine and am so sorry¡± Cora apologized out of nowhere confusing Adia. ¡°For what?¡± ¡°Everything, I mean I was not there for youst night and you were all alone in this cold and dark house¡± Cora made up her excuse because that was not the Sole reason she was apologizing. She was literally sorry for Everything going on, cause it was kind of her fault, if she had not sent Adia to the hotel that night maybe they wouldn¡¯t be counting her days now, it¡¯s all her fault. ¡°Come on Cora, am fine, have you had breakfast, you cane and join me. I was about to, before you came in¡± Adia invited Cora wearing a warm smile, leading her to the dining table. ¡°Hmm smells nice¡± Cora gingerly sat down filling her mouth with the chicken casserole Adia made. ¡°Hmm tasty¡± Cora praised stuffing chips into her mouth. ¡°Wow you made quite a lot today¡± Coramented, having noticed the different varieties of dishes on the table, having lived in the human world for years now, Cora had been able to adapt to their lifestyle. When she first arrived she ate Little or no food as she fed mainly on blood, but after meeting Adia, who always invited her for lunch, she started liking the idea of eating human food with a little blood as a supplement. ¡°Actually, I didn¡¯t make them, Sebastian sent them earlier,¡± Adia confessed. Earlier today she received a package of food and a note from Sebastian. ¡°Wow lucky romance¡± Cora chimed in as she tugged Adia¡¯s shoulders. ¡°Come on he¡¯s just being nice, I¡¯m carrying his baby after all¡± Adia said as that was whatever she told herself whenever he¡¯s being nice, she¡¯s carrying his baby. ¡°Hmm¡± ¡°Speaking of romance, what about Evans, he seems to be into you¡± ¡®for sex¡¯ Cora scoffed in her mind, Evans wanted nothing more than fun, given he rarely takes things like this seriously, you never know what¡¯s going on in that brain of his. ¡°You gave him my number didn¡¯t you¡± cora yelled pointing at Adia usingly. ¡°Come on, we made a deal¡± ¡°You used your best friend as leverage¡± Cora frowned as Adia grinned. ¡°Come on having his number is not gonna bite, he¡¯s nice you know¡± ¡®i wish, he¡¯s just a annoying pervert¡¯This content is ? N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Forget about that, when are you moving?¡± Cora asked since Adia was meant to move the day before but she¡¯s still here, or did Sebastian change his mind about protecting her. ¡°Actually I begged him for a favor¡± ¡°To¡­¡± ¡°To spend some time with Addison, while she¡¯s still recovering¡± Adia broke the news to Cora who seemed to agree. ¡°But with condition¡± she confessed, Sebastian wrote the condition in the note he sent earlier. ¡°Which is?¡± Cora knotted her brows curious about the condition. ¡°He said I shouldn¡¯t live in this shabby ce with his baby,¡± Adia exined as Cora scoffed at his cockiness. ¡°So what? That¡¯s not a problem, you cane over to my ce, it¡¯s big enough to amodate the three of us¡± Cora offered as Adia blinked in disbelief. ¡°Thanks so much¡± Adia hugged Cora affectionately. ¡°So when are we moving¡± ¡°Now, I¡¯ll pack some of our stuff then we go and pick Addison from the hospital bed then go straight to your ce¡± Adia told Cora of her ns who agreed immediately. ¡°That¡¯s great then, I¡¯ll just finish up¡± cora said referring to her food. ¡°Ok I¡¯ll get started now¡± Adia said rushing inside to get her things ready. ***** Cora packed up Addison things in the truck while Adia signed the discharge papers. Cora was so grateful that she didn¡¯t run into Evans at the hospital, he was thest person she wanted to meet now or forever. She sat in the car waiting patiently for Adia and Addison, minutester Adia and Addison arrived. Cora turned on the ignition switch and was about to move when Addison suddenly asked after Sebastian. ¡°Where¡¯s uncle Sebastian?¡± ¡°He had an important meeting so he couldn¡¯te over¡± Adia exined but Addison didn¡¯t seem satisfied as she frowned immediately. ¡°What¡¯s wrong Addison?¡± Adia questioned noticing her mood. ¡°He promised toe see me before I got discharged, he also promised me gifts whening¡± Addison responded as Adia felt her head spinning, why does her sister like Sebastian so much, they just met once. ¡°Like I said he¡¯s busy with work, he can¡¯te, maybe next time¡± Adia tried persuading but it only got worse as Addison frown deepened. ¡°Ask him toe over to our ce¡± Addison requested putting Adia in a tight spot. Cora just sat still grinning as she watched Adia struggling with her sister. ¡°I will, but not now, you need to have a good rest, once we get home, I¡¯ll ask him toe over¡± ¡°Promise?¡± Addison muttered pointing her pinky finger at her sister. ¡°I promise¡± ¡°Thanks Adia, you¡¯re the best¡± Addison happily hugged Adia, who patted her head lovingly before Cora drove off the hospital premises. HELL NO!! Adia tucked Addison carefully into bed before going to Cora. She had no idea how she was gonna contact Sebastian toe over, she didn¡¯t even have his contact number. So there was literally no way to reach him, unless,¡¯ Cora¡¯ she could actually plead with Cora to ask Evans for it. She rushed downstairs where she met Cora busy with herptop. ¡°Um Cora, can I ask for a favor¡± Adia began politely while Cora wondered what she wanted again. ¡°Anything¡± ¡°Please can you help with getting through Evans and ask for Sebastian¡¯s number¡± Adia pleaded as Cora red at her. ¡°Oh am so sorry I can¡¯t do it ¡± Cora bluntly refused Adia, thest thing in her list was to speak with Evans not to talk of calling him, who wanted to avoid him at cost and calling him was not even an option. Evans would taunt her nonstop if she ever calls, not to talk of his flirtatious and perverted self, he would stop at nothing to make sure he awakens whatever desire that¡¯s in her, which he will surely seed at. ¡°But Cora¡­¡± ¡°No Adia, I can¡¯t and won¡¯t¡± Cora remained adamant as really didn¡¯t want to talk to Evans, she spent years avoiding him and any other vampire from Britaris especially the ones from the elite families. They were all a pain in the ass, if not for Adia¡¯s current situation, heaven knows that none of them would have even caught a glimpse of her. She will surely avoid them like a gue. ¡°Come on Cora, just do this for Addison¡± ¡°Alright, how about I give you his contact and you talk to him¡± Cora suggested as Adia shrugged her shoulders in frustration, why is Cora getting all worked up. ¡°No, it would be much better if you do that¡± Adia refused again, she can¡¯t do that, Cora has to do it. ¡°No¡± ¡°Wait Cora, don¡¯t tell me you like him already?¡± Adia brow lifted gazing intently at Cora, she was so intrigued about this. ¡°Hell no¡± Cora yelled at the thought of that, Evans was just a pest in her life. ¡°Then why are overreacting, it¡¯s just a phone call¡± ¡°Then you do it¡± Cora offered Adia the phone wearing a mocking smile, she¡¯s not gonna call that pervert at least she¡¯s not gonna be the first person to call. He¡¯ll definitely tease her about it. ¡°You like him right, well I don¡¯t me you, who wouldn¡¯t want a guy like Evans, he¡¯s cute, rich, kind, and mature, if I were you I¡¯d go for it, he¡¯s kind of into you¡± Adia bbed as Cora shook her head frustratingly. ¡®mature, my foot, he¡¯s just after sex, nothing Adia!!¡¯ ¡®that¡¯s their speciality, making people like them¡¯ ¡®He is just using the smile to fool you¡¯ numerous thoughts flooded into Cora¡¯s head, who was lost at words, that Adia feels she likes him. Adia was not even in any position to tell her about rtionships, she¡¯s never dated herself, Adia lived all her life for her sister and never had time for her personal self, she recalled how she met Adia and how theyter became best of friends. She was Adia¡¯s only friend since Adia never kept a friend, Addison was her mother, father, sister in fact Addison was her all, before Cora came into her life. ¡°Don¡¯t get fooled by that Adia, you¡¯re in no position whatsoever to tell me about rtionships, instead focus on you and Sebastian¡± Cora said hoping to distract her. ¡°There¡¯s utterly a big difference between Evans and Sebastian, Evans is easy going, while Sebastian is like a statue, he¡¯s so cold¡± Adia exined to Cora who just scoffed. ¡®kind as if, he¡¯s worse they are all worse, poor Adia, these vampires are all deceiving you, what have you gotten yourself into?¡¯Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. That was one of the vampires¡¯ nature, you never know what¡¯s going on in that cunning brain of theirs. She lived amongst vampires for twenty years before her father finally decided to turn all of his family. Having lived with them for quite some time now, she already knows how they work. ¡®They are cunning and cheekish for Christ sake¡¯ seeing how they were all able to keep a calm facade around Adia knowing she¡¯s gonna die soon, is another evidence of how they lived. But all she was grateful for was that they all seemed to care about Adia and Cora was sure they would try all their best to keep her safe. But Adia was in grave danger amongst them, because once word gets out about her and the baby, lots of people wille for her head. Putting not only Adia in danger but the whole city as a whole because the city would be filled with blood suckers roaming about just to get one person killed. Sebastianes from an elite family, one of the provinces of Britaris and his family is arge one, there is definitely gonna be a power struggle. Thankfully he has Ace and Arion the vampire twins on his side and is willing to do anything for their big brother, the same could not be said for Logan the half-brother, who was born when Sebastian was also born by another woman and since then Logan has been trying to im a position as the rightful heir, so things won¡¯t go down well if he finds out about Adia, he¡¯s gonna rip her heart out and makes sure to kill the child, vampires were that ruthless. ¡°Please Cora, just a phone call¡± Adia pleaded but Cora was still hesitant. ¡°For Addison please¡± Cora was already tired from all of Adia¡¯s constant pleading, she signed heavily before agreeing, just a phone call. ¡°Alright I¡¯ll do it¡± she reluctantly said as Adia hugged her and patted her. ¡°I know you¡¯ll thank meter, when you guys are finally together¡± Adia sounded convinced while Cora rolled her eyes. ¡®Thankfully it¡¯s never gonna happen¡¯ vampires never take rtionships seriously, they love toying around with people¡¯s emotions. And whenever they love a person they¡¯re alwaysmitted to their love, so most of them just prevent it. But a few still fell in love, for instance Sebastian, but his love story didn¡¯tst for long and that¡¯s what resulted in his ruthless self. ¡°I¡¯ll be heading to my room now, night night¡± Cora yawned, walkingzily upstairs. TURN YOU ON Cora grunted angrily as she dialed Evans number, Addison has been asking after Sebastian for the past three days now and Adia made her promise to call Sebastian today since she has been stalling time. ¡°Hello love¡± a lovely seductive voice peered out from the phone with just one dial. ¡®seems like he¡¯s been waiting for this¡¯ ¡°Hey I need your help¡± Cora went straight to the point without beating around the bush, she was not in the right frame of mind to argue with Evans now. ¡°Want to hook up, I¡¯ll send the address, I knew you woulde running¡± he shamelessly blurted out as Cora cursed through gritted teeth.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. ¡°I would never¡± ¡°Come on Cora, if you¡¯re ever given a chance, you won¡¯t hesitate to climb my bed, but you¡¯re always wee¡± ¡°Shut up, I need something from you¡± ¡°And what¡¯s that?, My cock, I¡¯ll send the address¡± Evans shamelessly asked but Cora couldn¡¯t help but curse. Everyone thinks Evans is some kind of a pure soul, who always smiles and helps others. But Cora is fully aware how great of a pervert he is. ¡°Can¡¯t you just be serious for once¡± Cora muttered angrily. Silence reigned on the other side of the line before Evans spoke again. ¡°Am serious Cora, am damn serious¡± ¡°What exactly do you want Evans Montenero?¡± Cora asked tired of all his flirting. ¡°You, I want you naked on my bed so I can fuck you senseless till you scream my name out loud, I want to so dirty things with you Cora, things we never got to finish¡± Evans spat out shamelessly his voice bing huskier. Cora knew exactly what he was trying to do, he was trying to break her down, he was trying to destroy and crumble her walls of resistance. He was purposely trying to seduce her, but she won¡¯t fall for it this time. ¡°They are other girls Evans¡± cora dryly said ying with the herm of her blouse. ¡°True, but I was never done with you before you ran off, trying to escape my clutches, I have lots of punishments reserved specially for you Cora, but it can only be done in bed¡± Evans exined wearing a mischievous smile on his face. He has not even started with Cora and had lots of things to do with her. Throughout the years, Evans realized Cora was the best candidate for sex and got used to everything about her, you could say he was obsessed with her body. Evans has been nning numerous punishment to give to Cora, if hees across her and here they were, someone has to tame that monster. ¡°Oh shit¡± Cora cursed loudly, Evans was doing again trying to get to her. Cora was clearly aware that they felt nothing for each other, but there was this spark whenever they were making love, this feeling of not wanting to let go. ¡®why are you doing this Evans¡¯ Cora grunted as she could already feel her insides warming up, she badly wanted him inside if her, she missed that feeling. ¡°I can already feel your burning hunger for me Cora¡± Evans said twirling the wine ss on his hands before sipping from it slowly. ¡°I¡­I¡­shit¡± Cora head was totally messed up, these stupid twilight vampires, she had totally forgotten, each person from each family of the seven province were usually born with a gift. And Evans was the one born with a gift not Kate, he could get into people¡¯s head and read thoughts, while Ace and Arion were born with gift of vision, she would have loved to find out if Adia will live, but it didn¡¯t work like that, the visionse and goes. Aisling was the one born with a gift from the Cahan n, she had the gift of healing and that¡¯s how each person from a n of the seven province of Britaris has their own special gifts. ¡°Just give in Cora, hmm, I guess you¡¯re terribly wet right now¡± ¡°I didn¡¯t call for talks, I need.. oh sorry Adia needs Sebastian contact so please can you forward it to me¡± Cora pleaded wanting to end this conversation as soon as possible, it¡¯s taking longer than expected. ¡°I¡¯ll do so, but on one condition¡± Evans lips curved up in mischief. ¡°Let me guess, you want to hook up, so you can punish me and do dirty things to me, not gonna work¡± Cora breathed out gritting her teeth angrily. ¡® I¡¯ll kill you Montenero¡¯ Cora swore ¡°Not at all, I thought of a better condition¡± ¡°Which is?¡± ¡°Think of me¡± ¡°I would ne¡­¡± ¡°Think of me, like am in your bedroom with you¡± Evans interuptted ¡®fool, how did he know I¡¯m in my bedroom¡¯ ¡°Imagine I Walk up to you slowly, running my fingers from your leg down to your spine, then we engage in a slow and passionate kiss, after that I¡¯ll move my hands slowly under your blouse and pinch your taut nipples that already damn hard¡± Cora gasped loudly trying to control her self, he was doing it again. She sped her legs tight trying to distract her self from falling for it. ¡°Then my hands will find it way to your sweet spot, giving a good massage there, before fucking you with my fingers, with your clothes still on¡± A light moan escaped Cora¡¯s lips, as Cora snapped out from her trance, she was already touching herself but was brought back by the moan. ¡®Evans you devil, I hate you¡¯ Cora cursed embarrassed that he was able to turn her on, just by flirting with her. ¡°Then I¡¯ll ce my hands on your mouth and make you taste yourself after that I¡¯ll¡­.¡± Cora moaned loudly as she caressed her breasts, but Evans voice never sounded again, she checked her phone only to find out that he had ended the call with a text message with Sebastian¡¯s number. ¡®jerk I¡¯ll make you pay¡¯ Evans just toyed with her and she¡¯ll make sure he pays for it, she slipped to the bathroom to get a warm bath to help calm her self down FIND ME ADIA PETERS Cora leaped in the woods angrily as what conspired earlier with Evans really infuriated her. She told Adia she was gonna get some groceries, she just wanted to vent out her anger. She punched a tree angrily while cursing at Evans. Blood started dripping from her hands but her wounds healed quickly, this was the only thing she could do to ease her anger, as leaped away to another part of the forest. ¡°Fuck, damn it¡± she cursed through gritted teeth as her blouse got stuck in a tree branch. ¡°Careful there Arthur¡± a sweet tiny voice spoke from behind her as she turned swiftly only to find Kate. ¡°Kate¡± she muttered in anger. ¡°Hello there Cora, I never thought I would see you again¡± ¡°We don¡¯t have any business whatsoever¡¯ Cora spat at her rudely. ¡°I mean ever since you left Britaris, I haven¡¯t heard of you, you¡¯re really good at hiding you know?¡± Katemented ying with a strand of Cora¡¯s hair, who couldn¡¯t do anything but shoot daggers at her. Kate¡¯s a twilight vampire so if they fight Kate can easily win, and Kate wouldn¡¯t hesitate to kill her. ¡°Needed some time for my self¡± Cora responded keeping a stoic face. ¡°Hmmm, I see ¡± Katemented nodding continuously as if she was calcting something as she hovered around Cora. ¡°Oh poor Cora, I understood how you felt when Arion choose me over you and then I choose Sebastian over him, and then Sebastian choose Aisling over me, what an irony¡± Kateughed out hard like a maniac as Cora cursed herself for being unlucky today, first it was the pervert of a brother now it¡¯s the sister who behaves like a maniac. ¡°What do you want?, cut to the chase Kate¡± ¡°Come on Cora, no need to get all riled up, we¡¯re not enemies remember, infact your family will forever remain indebted to the Montenero¡¯s for giving them immortality¡± Kate stated referring to when the Montenero¡¯s turned the Arthur¡¯s into vampires. ¡°Oh how time flies¡± Kate continued. ¡°Whatever I came to you for something else, I¡¯m searching for a certain someone¡± Kate said as Cora became curious or has she found out about Adia. ¡°I can¡¯t help you Cora¡± Cora spat attempting to walk away but was held back by Kate. ¡°Yes you can, infact you¡¯re the closest to the person I need to find¡± ¡°I said I can¡¯t help¡± ¡°And I said you can, look few days ago, I went to the hospital to visit my dear brother and found out about something intriguing¡± Kate exined, cora immediately began to get nervous, what if she knows about Adia already. She tried to maintain herposure and y along and find out what she knows. ¡°What did you find?¡± Cora asked anxiously. ¡°Wow, seems like someone is starting to want to talk to me, I thought you wanted to leave a moment ago¡± Kate sarcastically said as Cora red at her. ¡°Whatever, as I was saying, I found a girl who Sebastian imed to be his wife¡± ¡°Wife!!!¡± Cora eximed Feigning ignorance, so Kate won¡¯t get suspicious. ¡°See, I can¡¯t believe it also¡± Kate stated rolling her eyes. ¡°So I was forced to do some digging and found something very interesting, her name is Adia peters and she¡¯s your best friend, I went to her ce and found it empty, since you¡¯re her only friend, you¡¯re the only one I cane to, so here¡¯s the deal¡± Kate smiled devilishly as she arranged Cora¡¯s cor. ¡°Find me Adia peters¡± Kate ordered in a menacing tone as her eyes shed red before returning to it¡¯s normal colours. Cora gulped nervously, knowing Kate is serious this time. ¡°Well sorry to inform you, Adia moved out of town, two days ago¡± Cora said trying to stay calm. ¡°Out of town, then why would Sebastian say she is his wife?¡± Kate asked creasing her brows. ¡°To make you jealous of course, look Adia is just one of Sebastian¡¯s toys and she waspelled to leave the city¡± cora uttered trying to sound convincing at least she¡¯s not yet aware of the pregnancy. ¡°Why will Sebastian try to make me jealous?¡± Kate asked again as Cora grunted in her mind wondering when it turned to a friendly chat. ¡°Because he obviously hates you and will never like you¡± Cora responded trying to add salt to the wound. She will love to see Kate hurt cause it suits her. ¡°Oh shut up, at least am no running around like an obsessed fool, I don¡¯t get why you take out your misery on me, it was never my fault that Arion liked me, you never stopped chasing after him, then all of a sudden you started screwing my dearest brother, you¡¯re such a cheap slut¡± Kate said as her lips curved up. Cora thinks she could get to her. ¡°And also¡­¡± Kate was interrupted as Cora sudden banged her on the trees, resulting in some branches falling. ¡°How dare you?¡± Cora asked baring her fangs at her. ¡°Ohe on Cora, it isn¡¯t bad to go about sleeping with someone who doesn¡¯t even like you, you were just catching fu¡­¡± Kate was interuptted again but this time with a punch from Cora, splitting her lips in two. Cora was fully aware that she was ying with fire and Kate would easily finish her, but she couldn¡¯t contain her anger. The Montenero¡¯s fucking talks too much and are all annoying. Kateughed loud sarcastically licking the blood on her lips as her wound healed up.N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. ¡°You know I can snap your neck in two and kill you right now, but I will not¡± Kate said with a note of finality as she attacked Cora from no where and threw her to the ground roughly. ¡°At least not now¡± Kate smacked her lips shrugging her shoulders, she walked up to Cora who was lying on the ground and squatted beside her. ¡°I know that girl is in this city and you¡¯re hiding her, so I won¡¯t kill you now, I need to find her and you¡¯re my only key in finding her, so till then stay safe, hmm and don¡¯t think you can hide her forever¡± Kate warned patting Cora¡¯s head as her lips curved up in mischief. ¡°See ya soon Arthur¡± she waved before she drizzled away like a ghost. ¡°Damn it, damn you to hell Kate¡± Cora cursed getting back on her feet. She needs to meet with Sebastian immediately, Kate is already suspicious and she won¡¯t sit back till she gets what she wants. SO ANNOYING Cora walked into the house unsettled, what if Kate finds Adia, Adia is not safe with her right now, Kate will easily locate her. Adia has been living with her for three days now, it¡¯ll be too sudden to send her away, she has no reasonable excuse to give. She¡¯ll have to inform Sebastian about it right now. ¡°Hey Cora¡± Adia alighted from the stairs waving at her. ¡°Hey what¡¯s up¡± Cora absent mindedly replied. ¡°The groceries, where are they?¡± Adia queried since Cora earlier said she¡¯s off to get groceries. ¡°What groceries?¡± Cora asked confused, totally forgotten about why she left earlier, if bit for Kate the mood spoiler, her presence just added to her fury. And now she¡¯ll have to talk to another annoying Montenero. ¡°You left to get groceries, remember¡± Adia reminded Cora as realization hit her.N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. ¡°Yea, that¡¯s true, I forgot my card, I¡¯ll go grab it now¡± Cora added rushing upstairs. She dialed Evans number immediately she got into her room. ¡°Hey babe, I guess you¡¯ve already considered my idea¡± Evans¡¯ annoying voice peered from the phone. ¡°You wish¡± Cora scoffed. ¡°Then why are calling, if not that¡± ¡°Well I will never intend to call, if not that your daling sister is creating a ruffle here¡± cora spat angrily. ¡°First of all, she¡¯s not my darling sis, never make that mistake ever again¡± Evans warned, though he was Kate¡¯s brother, he had an immeasurable hatred for her. The saying blood is thicker than water doesn¡¯t apply to his family in this Case, they were just a bunch of uncooperative families, who didn¡¯t care about each other. ¡°Well, she already knows about Adia, and is searching for her, she cane knocking at my door anytime¡± cora yelled angrily while Evans held a stoic face. ¡°And how was she able to find out?¡± Another person asked and Cora knew at once that it was Sebastian. ¡®so they were together all these while¡¯ cora thought. ¡°Well if not for the fact that you cannot keep your mouth shut and want to make her jealous, probably she would never have found out¡± Cora uttered in sarcasm. ¡°Watch your mouth woman,¡± Sebastian warned, sending chills down her spine. ¡°Luckily she ain¡¯t aware of the pregnancy¡± Cora finally broke the good news, if Kate ever gets to find out about the baby, Adia is surely gonna be in great danger, not only that Kate would try and kill the baby, but lots of people wille for the child. In Britaris, there were two different categories of vampires, that¡¯s the twilight or pure blooded vampires and the half vampires, the ones who were created. All pure vampires came from seven different lineage or families, that¡¯s what Britaris was divided into seven province, each family leading theirs. Pure blooded vampires were the only vampires that can turn other vampires and they can feed on both human blood, animal blood and also vampire blood, making them incredibly strong. While all half vampires came from her pure blooded lineage, just like her father and her family came from the Montenero¡¯s. Half vampires cannot feed on a vampire else they die and they are faithful to their Makers. But some vampires were never cool headed and became the rogue vampires, the ones that act without brains and hunt other vampires. Sebastian and his brothers came from one of the province of Britaris, Sebastian is very lucky he has Ace and Arion on his side but his other brother Logan who¡¯s actually his half brother that was born of another woman, wants to rule the hunters province of Britaris, so if he ever finds out Adia is pregnant, he will not hesitate to kill her, cause Sebastian baby¡¯s a threat. If Sebastian gives birth to a child before him, no doubt he will have the throne to one of the provinces, since it¡¯s hard for a vampire to sire a child, the elders won¡¯t think twice to make Sebastian the leader since he already has an heir. But Kate will want to kill the baby for a whole different reason and that¡¯s for Sebastian¡¯s love, cause she¡¯s gonna see Adia and the baby as an obstacle. ¡°Well that¡¯s good news, protect Adia, I¡¯lle over tomorrow, I¡¯ll be taking her home¡± Sebastian said, Adia will be a lot safer with him. He could have killed Kate a long time ago, but Kate¡¯s not just any vampire, she¡¯s pure blood, and the daughter of one of the leaders from the province of Britaris. So killing will be a problem because he¡¯ll only be waging war between the two provinces. Even if Evans is on their side, he still can¡¯t kill her, besides their mother is still alive and Kate still has her protection. ¡°Copy that¡± cora responded, but the problem now is that it¡¯s not up to a week and she has no reasonable excuse to give when Sebastianes tomorrow, well that will be his problem, not hers. As long as Adia Is safe, fine with her. ¡°And also, I¡¯ll need you to get me her papers, I¡¯ll have Rowan process something¡± Sebastian added, he¡¯s gonna make a fake certificate for Adia, indicating she¡¯s out of town, he¡¯s fully aware that Kate will go to great lengths to find her. ¡°I¡¯ll do just that¡± ¡°That will be all¡± Sebastian chimed in giving the phone back to Evans. ¡°So babe, we¡¯ll meet at your house tomorrow, do you mind for a quickie?¡± Evans¡¯ lips curved up as he awaited for an answer. ¡°Never¡± came Cora¡¯s curt reply hoping to get a grip of herself as he was already suffocating her, just by talking through the phone. ¡°We will see about that¡± ¡°In your dreams¡± Cora spat but immediately after the call was disconnected. ¡°Fool¡± she cursed loudly, grunting as she rolled on the bed. ¡°I hate you¡­haaa¡± she screamed loudly throwing her legs up in the air. ¡°Everything alright there?¡± Adia asked from outside. ¡°Yea, I am good¡± Cora replied, rushing into the bathroom to shower. LIVING WITH HIM It¡¯s been two days now since Cora was threatened by Kate, as Cora has been trying to keep Adia safe, but so far so good, there¡¯s been no sign of Kateing. While Cora has not heard from Sebastian, maybe he¡¯s gonna let Adia have the whole week to her self as promised, before she finally moves. ¡°Have some dumplings¡± Adia served Addison, as they were currently having dinner. ¡°Who¡¯s at the door?¡± Cora asked as the door bell rang. ¡°I¡¯ll go check¡± Adia volunteered. ¡°No let me do it¡± Cora stopped Adia as she rushed to the door to see who it is. ¡°Evans¡± Cora muttered weed by Evans smiling face. ¡°Hey Angel¡± ¡°What are you doing here¡± ¡°To get our bride of course, do you think I came for you?¡± ¡°Where¡¯s Sebastian?¡± ¡°He¡¯ll be here in a minute¡± Evans answered as he called for Adia. ¡°Adia, hello¡± Adia walked to the door as she waved at Evans, ¡°Evans, doe in, we¡¯re having dinner, do join us¡± Adia offered as Evans smiled while Cora shot him a re. ¡°Sure, I¡¯d love to¡± Evans said sliding into the house as he slipped into a seat in the dining table. ¡°Good evening¡± Addison greeted as Evans waved. ¡°How¡¯re you doing?¡± ¡°Am fine¡± Addison answered. ¡°Good to know¡± ¡°What do you care for?¡± Adia asked picking up a serving spoon. ¡°Anything¡± ¡°Then I¡¯ll rmend these¡± Adia said serving some rice together with chicken casserole. ¡°Hmmm, tastes nice¡± Evansmented as Adia smiled. ¡°My sister makes the best dishes¡± Addison chimed in. ¡°Wow, then I think, I¡¯ll visit more often, Sebastian¡¯s gonna enjoy your cooking alot, I wonder where he is?¡± Evans said as Adia stopped in her tracks ¡± Sebastian¡¯s here?¡± ¡± Hmm, hmm¡± ¡± But why what¡¯s the asion?¡± Asked Adia, she hadn¡¯t bother to ask Evans why he came to her house during the evenings, now it all made sense, Sebastian was here also, but what did he want. ¡± It would be better if you hear that from him¡± responded Evans who ate with delight. ¡°Sebastian!¡± Addison called happily leaving her seat to hug Sebastian who just got in with Rowan. ¡± Hey there¡± Sebastian beckoned reciprocating the hug. ¡± Come join us for dinner¡± Addison invited. ¡± Yea you should it¡¯s really tasty¡± rejoined Evans. ¡± Maybe next time, but I have something important to deal with, you wouldn¡¯t mind if I borrow your sister for a while¡± ¡± Not at all¡± ¡± I meant she¡¯ll be leaving with me tonight and you¡¯ll stay with aunt Cora for a little while¡± came Sebastian next word as Adia shot him a re, while Cora appeared to be surprised. ¡± But why?¡± Adia stepped forward as she was forced to ask, she thought he gave his word and one week was not yet over. ¡± Something urgent came up, so we¡¯ll have to leave immediately, don¡¯t worry about your bags, I¡¯ll send someone toe and get them tomorrow¡± ¡± I.. I¡­¡± ¡± I hope you cooperate with me, seeing we¡¯re running out of time¡± Sebastian interuptted. ¡± Hope you¡¯ll understand Addison¡± Sebastian returned his gaze to Addison who was already sobbing. ¡± I¡¯ll give you guys some time¡± he added giving Adia a knowing look, before striding outside the house. ***** ¡°Is that everything¡± Sebastian asked as Adia insisted she grabbed a few things. ¡°Yes, I¡¯ve got only a few stuff¡±Adia gasped. ¡°Very well then, let¡¯s get going, we have a long night ahead of us, get in the car¡± Sebastian instructed as he ced her bags in the trunk. The drive went on smoothly as nobody talked to try other. Sebastian could feel her shyness as they drove on. Adia noticed Rowan and Evans did not leave with them, maybe they left in some other car. ¡°We¡¯re here¡± Sebastian announced as they stop in front of the house. It was night time and the only thing Adia could see was the lights that surrounded the house, but from the look of things, she was sure it was a very big house, Sebastian was rich after all. ¡°The maids will take care of that¡± chimed in Sebastian referring to her bag. ¡°Come on¡± he gestured as they walked into the house. ¡°Your room is upstairs, go to bed, I¡¯ll introduce you to the others tomorrow¡± Sebastian said leading Adia who has not said a word since upstairs as the house was dimly lit. ¡°Sir¡± a deep masculine voice called as a tall figure Walked up to Sebastian. ¡°We have..¡± the man stopped talking as Sebastian raised his hands indicating for him to stop talking.C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org From the look of things, Adia was sure he¡¯s one scaring looking man. ¡°Get in Adia, see you tomorrow¡± Adia nodded as she got into the room, while Sebastian walked away. ¡°You¡¯re were saying?¡± Sebastian asked as they walked a distance away from Adia¡¯s room. ¡°We¡¯ve sessfully cleared Ms Adia path, and Kate clearly believes she¡¯s left town¡± the man reported. ¡°Good Mickelson, what about Logan?¡± ¡°He¡¯s currently in town now, but he seems harmless, as of now, he¡¯s not posing any threat¡± conceded Mickelson as Sebastian nodded. ¡± Make sure, you watch him and inform me of anything suspicious, tomorrow I¡¯ll introduce you to the new miss, you¡¯re assigned to take care of her¡± instructed Sebastian. ¡± Ok sir¡± ¡± Have a good night rest¡± Mickelson bowed as Sebastian walked to his study. ***** Adia looked around her room, trying to find the light switch, she finally found it as she switched the lights on. She wowed in awe at the beauty and size of the room, it was literally the size of her whole house, it was neatly arranged, and even if it looked as if no one has lived here, there was not even a peck of dust. Her legs moved to the closet as her eyes opened like saucers at the amount of clothes, jewelries and essories there. All these would cause a life fortune, have he been preparing for these?, Adia asked herself in her thoughts admiring the room, before walking back to her bed. She finally drifted into her wondend after series of thoughts has passed through her head. CONFINED Adia tossed around the bed as she yawned loudly, her eyes sprang open immediately the lights from the windows hit her, she immediately sensed someone was in the room. ¡°Oh geez¡± she eximed on seeing an elderly woman there. ¡°Who are you?¡± She asked startled by her presence. ¡°Am so sorry young miss if i scared you, am Samantha, your personal maid, master Sebastian has told me about your condition and the type of diet you need, so you¡¯ll have to freshen up ande downstairs now¡± Samantha informed as Hope shook her head. ¡± Thanks,¡± she muttered getting down from the bed. ¡± I¡¯ll summon the other maids to cone help with your bath¡± added Samantha as Adia quickly wrapped her hands around her chest nervously, Were they seriously gonna help her bath, she¡¯s not a fucking baby, she thought. ¡± Well I¡¯m fine with that, my hands are working perfectly well, I¡¯ll go now¡± Adia said pointing to the bathroom as she slided inside. ***** Adia got out of the bathroom to see a dress already prepared for her, immediately after she got dressed she heard a knock on the door. ¡± Come in¡± she invited as the door opened slowly. ¡± Miss breakfast is served¡± a maid informed her head down. ¡± I¡¯ll be down in a minute¡± responded Adia amused by the royal treatment she was receiving. She walked out of her room only to be greeted by a magnificent view, she didn¡¯t get the chance to admire the other night, seeing it was dark and there was no one around, but now, she¡¯s taking her good time to admire the house. The house was beautifully decorated, and big that she was sure she would lost her way left alone. ¡°After you,¡± the maid gestured leading Adia downstairs. Adia looked towards the dining table, and saw Samantha present there, with a man dressed in a ck suit holding a stern expression, an old man who looked like the butler and some maids. Sebastian was no where to be seen. ¡°Young miss¡± they all bowed as another maid dragged out a chair for her as she sat down, the royal treatment giving her an unsettling feeling at the depths of her stomach. ¡°What would you like for breakfast?¡± Samantha asked. ¡°Anything light would do¡± Adia answered sheepishly, trying to get used to the unwevering eyes on her. Samantha signaled a brte haired maid who served Adia with scrambled eggs and toast bread. ¡°Thanks¡± Adia muttered eating her breakfast slowly. ***** ¡°Miss Adia¡± Mickelson bowed walking up to Adia, who was on her way upstairs to her room. ¡°Hello¡± ¡°Am Mickelson, your assigned guard¡± he introduced himself as Adia shook her head. ¡°Master Sebastian mentioned to take you round the house, so you¡¯ll get familiar with the things around¡± he continued. ¡°Where¡¯s Sebastian?¡± ¡°On a business trip, and you need not worry, everything you need will be at your disposal,e on, let¡¯s introduce you to the others¡± Mickelson led the way as Adia followed behind him, finding herself admiring the beautiful but empty house. ¡°As you already know, this is Samantha the head maid¡± Mickelson introduced. ¡°And this is George the butler, he manages the affairs of the house¡± ¡°Hello¡± Adia waved with a smile. ¡°Good day young miss¡± George the butler bowed in respect, making Adia feeling uneasy by the kind reception she¡¯s receiving from the elderly. ¡°And this is Jared, your personal driver, you¡¯ll only need him when you¡¯re going out, if you need anything, you can press the bell at your bedside and any maid wille attend to you¡± Mickelson stated as Adia noted everything down. ¡°Now let¡¯s proceed¡± added Mickelson as he went on to show Adia round the house. ¡°Here have this¡± Mickelson handed over a phone to Hope as they got to her room after finishing the little tour. ¡°Just Incase you need to make a call, I guess you¡¯ll want to speak with your sister¡± ¡°Thanks so much Mickelson¡± ¡°Not a problem miss, have a good day, feel free to call anyone, if you need any help¡± Mickelson conceded helping Adia to shut the door. *****Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. It¡¯s been a month now, since Adia came to live with Sebastian, thisst month has been undescribable for Adia. She felt like a locked soul as if she was being convicted. It has been going on smoothly with the workers around as they helped a great deal in keeping herpany. Since the night Sebastian left her here, she hasn¡¯t even caught a glimpse of him, and each time she asked Mickelson, the response was that he was on a business trip. She called her sister and friend a couple of times as she wasn¡¯t allowed to leave the house, she¡¯s only allowed to walk around the gardens nothing else, she felt like a prisoner here. All she does is eat, sleep, chat with Samantha and George as the other maids kept their distance. Mickelson was another case as he was always serious as hell and straight to business. She didn¡¯t even hear from Evans nor Ace, it was as if they ghosted her. This particr morning, she was woken up by a knock on the door. ¡°Young miss¡± Samantha called walking in. ¡°Samantha, hey, I guess I over slept today¡± uttered Adia. ¡°You need it young madam, lots of rest is required from you¡± Samantha stated as Adia nodded. ¡± Do you want breakfast here or you¡¯lle down?¡± ¡± I¡¯lle over¡± responded Adia. ¡± Young madam, master Sebastian has sent a message¡± Mickelson announced as Adia looked up with enthusiasm. ¡± What did he say?¡± ¡± You¡¯re to get ready by noon for a dinner party, you¡¯re to be his plus one, he has sent your dress and the stylist will arrive soon ¡± reported Mickelson making his way to leave the room. ¡°I¡¯ll see you down stairs¡± Samantha said shutting the door to give Adia space to get ready. Adia inhaled deeply, jumping on the bed happily, she was finally going to leave this prison after being locked up for over a month. She had lot¡¯s of questions to ask Sebastian, and some querying to do, Fi she refused to be locked up. She rushed into the bathroom wondering what kind of party Sebastian was taking her to. DEFILING HIS ORDERS A knock came breaking Adia out of her reverie as she walked to the door, ¡°Hey¡± she greeted as she saw a feminine man at the door with a full makeup on his face. ¡°Good day ma¡¯am¡± he greeted enthusiastically ¡± Good day¡± Adia responded, her eyes working as she had never seen this strange face before. ¡°Am harry, your stylist¡± he introduced himself seeing Adia was feeling ufortable. ¡°Okay..¡± Adia stressed looking for a more valid exnation. ¡°He¡¯s here to get you ready for the party tonight¡± mickelson said climbing up the stairs as Adia nodded. ¡°Okay then¡± ¡°Let¡¯s get started then, I¡¯m gonna make you look very beautiful tonight¡± Harry squealed happily as Adia shed him a smile. ***** ¡°Wow, Young miss, you look so pretty, you could pass for the most beautiful woman on earth¡± Harry praised as Adia looked at her reflection in the mirror. She was no doubt looking beautiful, with the makeup and all, she had requested for a light makeup earlier, but it still suited her perfectly. She wore a brilliant bright Red gown, that seemed to glow. The gown had beautiful intricate designs that were carefully embroidered on the cloth. it was an armless gown, with colorful designs at the hemming, ording to Mickelson, Sebastian picked it up himself. ¡°You look beautiful, miss Adia¡± Samantha added as Adia blushed. ¡°Thank¡± she muttered, feeling happy that she¡¯s finally gonna leave this ce, the ce that she has been locked in for a month now. She onlymunicated with Cora and her sister through the phone and strangely, Cora told her not to bother about the confinement. ¡°We¡¯ll leave at five¡± Mickelson announced as Adia nodded. ***** Adia looked outside the window, enjoying the quiet ride to an unknown party, sye was finally having an opportunity to leave the house. Adia got down from the car as Mickelson led the way, he informed her earlier that it was a mask party and from the look of things, Adia was sure it¡¯s for the elites. ¡°Master Sebastian, would be with you shortly¡± Mickelson informed. ¡± Okay¡± responded Adia as she waited patiently for her husband. Adia stood he gaze surveying the environment, ravishingly dressed females around, with lots of essories on them. ¡°Adia¡± Sebastian called walking towards her as Adia couldn¡¯t help but admire his beauty, half of his face was covered with a golden mask, but he still looked ethereal. ¡°You¡¯re pretty¡± heplimented as he smiles at the corner of his eyes, but the smile never gets to grow as his face returns back to its default cid state. ¡°Come on let¡¯s go in¡± he whispered to Adia, leading her inside. ¡°The invitation?¡± Adia asked to see if people needed invitations to get in. ¡°No need for an invitation¡± He replied as the got to the entrance Adia was surprised by the way the bouncers fawned over Sebastian, like he was some celebrity with an important dignitary, as he led them both inside. Adia felt nervous as she perched on a nearby chair, Sebastian at her front. She has never been surrounded by important people before as she felt kind of inferior. ¡°Be careful when you pick your drink¡± Sebastian warned as Adia nodded obediently. Momentster, Sebastian stood up as he extended his hands, ¡°Do you care for a dance? He asked politely as Adia smiled epting his hands, covered with gloves, leading her to the dance floor. ¡°Sorry, but I don¡¯t know how to dance,¡± Adia uttered softly to him. ¡°Then we take it slow and steady¡± he responded, as he led her to the slow rhythm of the song. Adia didn¡¯t fail to notice the gaze of people on her, especially thedies. Sebastian was handsome, and looked quite popr, so he¡¯ll definitely be a hot cake around them. ¡°I wanted to speak with you?¡± Adia conversed, wanting to bring up the topic of being locked up in the house. ¡°We can talkter,¡± he whispered to her ears, holding her waist at a close proximity as Adia breathed in and out, trying to keep a calmposure. Leading her out of the dance floor, he picked up a ss of juice handing it over to Adia. ¡°Thanks,¡± she muttered. ¡°Sebastian!!!¡¯ a bulky looking man called with a wide smile on his face, walking up to Sebastian, extending his hand for a handshake, which Sebastian refused. ¡°Martin¡±Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. ¡°Who¡¯s this chick? She¡¯s pretty, I see she¡¯s your plus one today, no wonder Rowan is nowhere to be seen¡± Martin stated looking at Adia with hungry eyes. ¡°Well this chick is my wife, so it¡¯ll be better if you take your eyes off her and look somewhere else¡± Sebastian replied calmly, his voice sending chills as a dark Aura emanated from him. ¡± Come on Sebastian, I was just joking, well I came to talk about something else¡± Martin chuckled nervously. ¡± This is a party, not a business center, now if you would excuse me¡± Sebastian conceded, dragging Adia along with him. ¡± You¡¯ll have to note how the rich behave and act,¡± Sebastian said to Adia, introducing her to a few people. He had bluntly refused to attend the party before, but when Rowan told him it was a costume party, he opted to bring Adia along so she¡¯ll blend in and also ward off some persky flies. ¡°I¡¯ll be back, don¡¯t go anywhere¡± Sebastian ordered walking away as Adia sat obediently waiting for him. Adia is amazed by the beauty of the ce, it oozes of wealth, she could never imagine that she can be surrounded by people this Rich. She nces through the halls to, hoping to find Sebastian, she¡¯s starting to feel restless as she¡¯s morefortable around him, even if they¡¯ve not had the time to bond, but it still feels better. She nces around, but still can¡¯t find him, instead she feels a prating gaze on her, she follows the gaze only to find out it¡¯sing from a woman dressed in ck. Adia feels threatened, so she immediately turns her gaze away, but that didn¡¯t stop the intense staring from the unfamiliar woman. To help matters, Adia strides to the bathroom, to receive some air, defiling Sebastian¡¯s orders. SAVING HER ASS Adia walked out of the restroom nervously, after spending a good time there, Lana Rhoades watched the woman Sebastian brought out walk out, she just couldn¡¯t believe he would be with another woman a few months after they broke up, she grew hatred for the strange woman, the moment her eyes met hers. She was in no position to steal her ce as she¡¯s gonna get her man back, she threw threatening res at her as she watched her leave the hall, then a devious n hit her as her lips curved up in mischief. ***** Adia walked slowly and calmly into the halls, when she bumped into the starringdy from earlier, she had smelt something fishy before, now she¡¯s bumped into her, which Adia knows was purposely she began to be more suspicious. The unfamiliardy apologized as Adia quickly waved her off. She has not even gone far when she heard a voice. ¡°Ladies and gentlemen, our distinguished guests, may I get your attention please¡± Lana called with a wide smile on her face, gaining the attention of the people in the hall. Her father was a respectable business mogul in the business world, that¡¯s how she managed to date Sebastian, who basically broke up with her two weeks after the rtionship, and that¡¯s what infuriated her. ¡°We all know this is an auspicious asion for all the elites and business moguls, ¡± she began, gaining Adia¡¯s attention who knew something was up. ¡°All our jewelry cost not less than 20 million dors¡± she continued as Adia gasped at the huge Amount of money they spent on a single ne, it felt so expensive. ¡°I Know you all, might be wondering what am driving at, actually I don¡¯t know when paupers ever get the chance toe in here, because this woman here is a thief¡± Lana yells pointing usingly at Adia, who now Knows why she came across her, she obviously nted the ne on her, but where? ¡°I¡¯m not¡± Adia mumbles trying to defend herself, as the whole crowd are now murmuring, averting their attention to her. ¡°I¡¯m sure you know only dignitaries are invited here, I¡¯m sure she doesn¡¯t even have a name, where¡¯s your invitation?¡± Lana asked, ring at Adia, who couldn¡¯t help but wonder what she must have done to this woman, someone she has never met before in her life. Is this how the rich behave, she thought looking for how to defend herself. Adia was a calm person by nature, and usually didn¡¯t know how to stand up for herself, she also hated getting attention, which is what she was getting now. ¡°I don¡¯t have an invitation,¡± she muttered. ¡°You see, she doesn¡¯t have an invitation, she probably sneaked in to seduce the men and steal, she¡¯s not even invited¡± Lana imed, feeling triumphant inside of her. ¡°I¡¯m invited¡± Adia muttered again as Lana red at her. ¡°Then show us your invitation, am sure everyone here would love to see that¡± Lana yelled Again, infuriated by her calm facade. ¡± I came here with my husband and I¡¯m not a thief,¡± Adia replied. ¡± Husband¡± Lana sneered, How dare she call Sebastian her husband, Lana fumed in anger ring at Adia. She clearly knows Sebastian was single, when did he ever get a wife, thest before her was definitely a pauper, she thought. Adia was too stunned to speak, she could already hear the crowd mocking her as she felt as though she was the unluckiest person on earth. Her little attempts to defend herself was unheard by the riveting crowd. ¡°I came with my husband,¡± she repeated again. ¡°And where¡¯s that husband, I would love to see him?¡± Lana asked, maybe she¡¯s lying, seeing Sebastian was nowhere around her. ¡°He¡¯s¡­¡± ¡°He¡¯s here, she was brought by me,¡± a deep powerful voice sweeps through the halls that everywhere went quiet. After hearing Sebastian¡¯s voice, Adia immediately felt strength as she breathed in relief, her racing heart slowly calmed down as she felt a settling peace, every step he made towards her screams of power and confidence. His hair is a bit cropped and disheveled giving him the most handsome look ever. The crowd suddenly goes wide as he approaches, Adia didn¡¯t even know when she rushed over to meet him, circling her arms around him. ¡°Sebastian¡± Lana¡¯s face wears a sour look as Adia holds him. He has a scary look on his face, as he pulls up Adia hands exposing a ring for everyone to see. Adia looks startled, wondering when he ced a ring on her fingers, she clearly remembers that he never gave her a ring when they got into a contract marriage. ¡°This is my wife Adia,¡± he speaks in a cold voice that no one can dare argue with. ¡± But she stole from me¡± Lana manages to say as Sebastian res at her. ¡± Prove it¡± ¡± We can search her¡± Lana proposed. ¡± My wife is not some exhibition that anyone can touch, how can you prove your ne is with her?¡± Sebastian asked, raising a brow at her. ¡°I saw her taking it¡± ¡°How, at least I remember, my wife never stayed near you, so howe she took it from you?¡± Sebastian asked, emphasizing on the word wife, making Lana angrier.. ¡°Because she¡¯s a thief, anything is possible¡± Lana defended as Sebastian shook his headzily. ¡± Mickelson¡± he called as Mickelson stepped forward. ¡°Search her..¡± he ordered, pointing to Lana. ¡°But I¡¯m the victim here¡± ¡°I think you should cooperate, and if you have no solid proof that my wife stole from you, you¡¯re gonna lose your name in the business world, I¡¯ll see to that¡± Sebastian threatened, as Lana nodded, standing tall, she knows they¡¯re not going to find anything on her as she has slipped her ne into Adia¡¯s purse earlier when they bumped into each other. Adia stood beside Sebastian fidgeting, she knows the ne is on her, she didn¡¯t steal it, but Lana dipped it into her purse, that¡¯s why she¡¯s acting so confident. ¡°I found it, master Sebastian¡± Mickelson deep voice echoed in the hall, as Lana froze, How did it happen? I personally put it on her purse, Lana thought, feeling Sebastian hard gaze on her, picking her fingers in fright.N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. PLANS OF ESCAPING ¡°I would like the best exnation for this Lana Rhoades?¡± Sebastian asked as Lana fidgeted, trying to find the right words to say. ¡°I¡­i¡­¡± Lana stammered in shame, her head down, speechless. ¡°You what, am so sorry about my daughter¡¯s unruly behavior, she was just being childish, please do forgive her?¡± Her father Anderson Rhoades stepped forward pleading on his daughter¡¯s behalf. ¡± You¡¯re sorry, hmmm¡± Sebastian repeated. ¡± Well I hold no grudges, but your daughter actually crossed the line today, I mean my wife is off limits, I don¡¯t dare joke with her¡± continued Sebastian, as Adia couldn¡¯t help but turn crimson red, regardless Sebastian was just acting, he didn¡¯t give a shit about her, he only wanted an heir. ¡°As former business partners, please consider¡± Anderson Rhoades pleased again, knowing fully well what Sebastian can do, he knew full well how gruesome he acts, he was a ruthless man, with no heart. ¡°Thank goodness you said the word former, now we have no alliances whatsoever¡± Sebastian deadpanned holding Adia tight, as he rendered Anderson Rhoades speechless. ¡°Well I guess, we¡¯re done here, see you Ms Lana Rhoades¡± Sebastian said giving both father and daughter a lovely smile, but only Anderson and a few people around knew the real demon behind that smile. ¡°Good day¡± he added walking out of the hall, alongside Adia, with Mickelson following behind them. At the very moment, the person Sebastian was angry at was not only Lana Rhoades but also Adia, who clearly disobeyed his orders. Mickelson had coincidentally seen what Lana Rhoades was up to, so he informed him about it, thanky to their fast reflexes of being a vampire, they were able to remove the ne from Adia. And thankfully it was a mask party, no one will recognize Adia, if they crossed paths with her again, which might not happen for a long time, since he has no ns of letting her out of the house anytime soon. ¡°Hmm, hmmm¡± Adia cleared her throat nervously, trying to break the tension, in the car they were currently in, which was driving at a full speed. ¡°What about Ace and Rowan, I mean your brothers, I haven¡¯t seen them for a while?¡± Adia asked. ¡°Busy¡± came Sebastian¡¯s curt reply. ¡°Umm, about the ring I..¡± ¡°Keep it¡± Sebastian chimed in. ¡°I wasn¡¯t talking about that actually, how did you slip it into my fingers, ?¡± Adia asked curiously, finding it all a mystery, she didn¡¯t even know when she wore her ring, or how the nended back on Lana, who literally nted it on how. ¡°How would you know, when you were feeling so nervous, but you can keep, take it as a gift from me to you¡± Sebastian answered. ¡°But the ne also, Lana¡­¡± ¡°You said you wanted to talk about something?¡± Sebastian asked, interrupting her, having no more room for questions. ¡°Well, I don¡¯t think I can keep on staying indoors¡± Adia began looking Sebastian in the eyes for the first time. ¡°What do you mean?¡± ¡°You kept me indoors for over a month,¡± Adia emphasized as Sebastian sighed. ¡± You¡¯re pregnant¡± he stated the obvious, he was doing nothing but protecting her from the outside world, all he wanted was to get his enemies off her path, enemies he had everywhere. She didn¡¯t even she might not see the new year, for the past one month now, him and his brothers together with Rowan and Evans has being trying everything utterly possible to save her, but came up with nothing, they only had to go to the next alternate, to find a witch, which would be a big problem, for a witch has not being spotted for decades, his only Hope now, was that a witch could try a spell to save Adia. And that was their next mission, to find a witch. ¡°Not sick, I¡¯m perfectly fine, I demand to be locked no more¡± Adia requested. ¡°You¡¯re carrying my child Adia, and I have the final say here, you¡¯re to stay indoors and go nowhere¡±This content is ? N?velDrama.Org. ¡°But why, at least I have Mickelson to protect me, why are you so intent on keeping me locked up, it¡¯s so boring here¡± Adia said with pleading eyes. ¡± Ace and Arion will be arriving in town tonight, they¡¯lle keep youpany,¡± Sebastian suggested as Adia red at him ¡± They¡¯re men, and that Arion of a brother, geez it¡¯s so suffocating around him¡± Adia stated as Arion hardly smiled and looked so scary, like an angry god, whose bride left on the pulpit. ¡°At least Ace is there, it¡¯s fun to be around him¡± ¡± You¡¯ve gotta be kidding me¡± Adia scoffed loudly as Sebastian rested his head, tired of the conversation already, he never intended to speak with her this long. ¡°Also I need to visit Addison,¡± she continued. ¡°I¡¯ll see to that¡± cane his curt reply as Adia threw him a re before looking outside the window, it was so obvious he didn¡¯t want to talk to her any longer. ***** Adia walked into her room angrily mming the door behind her loudly, who did Sebastian or whatever think he is, he didn¡¯t actually marry her to keep her locked up, did he? Adia looked outside her window as she sat near, hatching a n, it was so hard to leave this y, seeing how tight the security was, but there¡¯s no harm in trying, the only problem now, was Mickelson, who¡¯s always hovering around her, like an obedient puppy. She needed to leave immediately, it was so suffocating around, the other problem was Cora, who didn¡¯t seem bothered by it, He¡¯s so annoying, Adia thought, squealing loudly. ¡°Ma¡¯am, is everything alright in there?¡± Mickelson asked in concern, hearing her scream. ¡°Am fine thank you¡± she quickly replied. ¡°Do not hesitate to call me if you need something¡± ¡°Do not hesitate to call me if you need something¡± Adia mimicked before answering. ¡± Not a problem¡± Adia responded, slumping on her bed, to have a good night¡¯s sleep, thinking of all means to escape this house. HANDSOME SAVIOR Three days had passed, after Adia¡¯s conversation with Sebastian, and he was still intent on locking her up. She has not even seen him for these three days, but that does not mean it didn¡¯t go well for her, in fact it¡¯s one of the best days she has spent in that house. Adia was walking round the house, looking for any fast pass she could use to escape without being noticed. She noticed a door and was checking it out, when a maid walked in. ¡°Miss Adia, what are you doing there?¡± She asked startling Adia, who turned. ¡°You¡­ I was just trying to¡­¡± ¡°Escape¡± she continued making Adia choke on her words. ¡°What¡­how did¡­you¡­¡±This content is ? N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Come on it¡¯s natural, no one wants to be locked in here, till she delivers, I can help you¡± she proposed as Adia stared nkly at her. ¡°Monique Laurent¡± she introduced wearing a smile. ¡°I¡¯ve not seen you around before¡± ¡°True, I am Samantha¡¯s daughter. I¡¯ve been working here since I was five, when I returned from France, so I know the map of this ce quite well. Come on, let me show you something¡± she said, leading Adia to a dark passage, leading after the basement. ¡°Why are you helping me?¡± Adia asked, confused , seeing no reason, why she was helping her. ¡°Because I feel your pain, sir Sebastian, can be cruel at times, you know, no offense though, I just want to help¡± Monique exined. ¡°I discovered this ce, when I was younger, it leads straight outside, just follow the tunnel, till you find a door¡± she continued handing a key and torch over to Adia. ¡°It¡¯s pretty dark in there, you¡¯ll need it, I overheard Mickelson telling my mother that Master Seb brothers areing over, so be back before five, you have just two hours to explore¡± she concluded as Adia smiled widely, rushing into the tunnel. Overwhelmed by the fact she¡¯s finally leaving the ce, age couldn¡¯t help but feel grateful that she didn¡¯t even ask Monique more questions as she made her way out. ¡°Was that necessary Monique?¡± Her twin sister Monica Laurent asked, immediately Adia was out of sight. ¡°Of course, if the young miss keeps on leaving, one day all we¡¯ll have to do is inform master Seb, that she¡¯s been defiling his orders, and seeing another man, you know how furious he¡¯ll be, he can even believe that child is not his, and boom, he¡¯ll throw her out, then I¡¯ll talk about having my chances with him¡± Monique exined wearing a devilish smile. ¡°And how will you do that?¡± Monica asked knowing fully well, her sister was venturing in a dangerous path, and there¡¯s no way she¡¯s gonna persuade her from not doing so, she¡¯s taking her obsession with the master too far. ¡°I¡¯ve kept someone on her tracks, it¡¯ll take some time, but I¡¯ll be victorious¡± Monique said smiling widely. ***** Adia walked gingerly along the road, breathing in fresh air, as she couldn¡¯t contain her joy, she felt nothing but gratefulness towards Monique, she knew she couldn¡¯t visit Addison, or she¡¯ll blow her cover. She brought out the little money with her as she quickly boarded a taxi, before she¡¯ll be spotted by one of Sebastian¡¯s men. A taxi stopped in front of a coffee shop as Adia rushed out paying the man his money. She looked at the ring on her finger as she removed it, slipping it into her pocket, making her way towards the coffee shop as she¡¯s been craving their coffee for a long time. Le surmats a cafeine, was her favorite coffee shop. Adia walked in a hurried manner on the side road heading towards Le surmats a cafeine, as she walked gingerly, she thought on how Sebastian would react if he ever found out about this, but she was more than ready for him. At this moment, she suddenly heard someone call out ¡°watch out¡± Before Adia could realize what was going on, someone had hauled her forward, by her arm. The person pulled her arm, and ran forward in a haste, Adia held her stomach as she was caught off guard and all she cared for now was her unborn baby. The person dragged her forward as they came to a halt near the ¡®Le surmats a cafeine¡¯. Immediately they came to a halt, she heard a loud bang, after she regained her stand, she subconsciously looked towards the ce she was standing before, it turns out that a vehicle had crashed into the sideWalk, the front severely dented. If she had still been standing there, Cold chills ran through her spine at the thought of what could have happened to her. ¡°Are you alright?¡± A gentle alluring voice asked, as Adia turned instinctively, to face the person, only to find a handsome, translucent and youthful face in front of her, if not that she had met Sebastian and his brothers, along with Rowan and Evans, this one would have passed for the most handsome man, all in all, they were all good looking, that she won¡¯t even be able to handpick the most handsome one of all. There was undisguised worry in his eyes as he stared at her, he beautiful gray eyes staring intensely at her, Adia couldn¡¯t help but think he had a striking resemnce to Sebastian, Ace and Arion, especially the eyes, they alm strangely had the same beautiful metallic pairs of gray eyes. His dashing facial features looked rather dazzling under the sunlight. ¡°You¡­. saved¡­me.. you ..¡± Adia asked without much thought, utterly confused. ¡°I just happened to be walking, when I spotted you, that¡¯s what any gentleman would do, are you alright, hope you¡¯re not injured anywhere?¡± The handsome stranger asked, smiling at Adia who couldn¡¯t help but smile back at him. Such a gentle man,¡¯ Adia thought. ¡°And perfectly fine, thanks to you, if it hadn¡¯t been your kind gesture, I would already be on my way to meet my maker now¡± Adia responded, taking a deep breath, as she couldn¡¯t help but wonder, what could have happened to her if he hadn¡¯t showed up. ¡®My baby¡¯ she thought , feeling nothing but grateful towards her handsome savior. LOGAN MOREAU ¡°I find you very funny miss¡± the handsome stranger teased as Adia bowed her head nervously as she chuckled. She discovered that the man¡¯s arm was still wrapped around her waist, making their position feel akward, embarrassed to make it obvious, she straightened up herself calmly, releasing her self from his hold, ¡°I¡¯m Logan Moreau, what about you?¡± he introduced himself as they both exchanged handshakes. ¡°I¡¯m Adia peters, nice to meet you ¡± Adia answered, omitting Seb¡¯s surname, as she opted for hers instead. Aot of unlookers, had slowly gathered the scene of the ident, as theymented how lucky Adia was to be saved by Logan Moreau. Several people were pointing at the car wondering, what might have caused the ident. Thest thing Adia wanted was to blow her cover, she hasn¡¯t even started enjoying this part of the world, if she¡¯s to be taken to the police for a statement, not only will Sebastian be contacted, she¡¯ll also spend a lot of time there, and by then they¡¯ll find out she¡¯s missing, so she immediately turned to Logan for help. ¡°Mr Logan, do you mind, but I really need to leave this ce, I can¡¯t be seen here?¡± She requested murmuring as the police had already arrived, luckily Logan understood her as he took her away before any would notice. Adia sat inside Le surmats a cafeine, as a cup of coffee remained untouched in front of her, as she looked outside the transparent window. She was still shaken by what happened earlier as she watched the driver being ced in a stretcher, that could have been her if it wasn¡¯t for Logan, she would probably be covered in blood now, she was gonna lose everything, her baby. She was really grateful to Logan. Adia felt like puking at the sight of blood as she scrunched her face in disgust. ¡°Hey, Adia are you okay?¡± A deep voice startled her out of her reverie, she turned to face Logan¡¯s worried face as she realized she¡¯s been staring at the ident scene from too long now. ¡°Yh¡­yh¡­I¡¯m fine, ¡± Adia stuttered forcing a smile at Logan. ¡°I¡¯m hust worried if the driver¡¯s gonna be okay¡± Adia voiced out removing her gaze fully from the scene. ¡± You don¡¯t need to worry about that, you¡¯re safe, that¡¯s all you need to worry about¡± Logan said. ¡± I¡¯ll have to leave now¡± Adia said standing up on her feet, seeing, she had thirty minutes more to spend. ¡°Is everything okay?¡± Logan asked worriedly. ¡°No, no, it¡¯s just that I live far from here, I don¡¯t want to be caught in traffic, you know¡± Adia responded chuckling nervously. ¡°Ok but at least let me have your number?¡± Logan requested as Adia gave him her contact, he was her saviour and she couldn¡¯t tell him no, infact she owned him. Logan watched as Adia saved his name on her phone, he couldn¡¯t help but smile, as he had taken a liking to her, it turns out she was pregnant, because his ears was not failing when he held her closer earlier, he could clearly hear her heartbeats, turns out she¡¯s taken, but he didn¡¯t care, she¡¯s not wearing a ring afterall. All he cared about, was that he has taken a liking to the youngdy, and he must have her. ¡°Where do you live, I can drop you?¡± He offered with a polite smile. ¡°Oh please, you¡¯ve helped me alot, save your strength, I¡¯ll take it from here¡± Adia chuckled refusing his offer, thest thing she wanted was a male asking over her. ¡°Come on I insist¡± Logan insisted as they walked out of the coffee shop, he was beginning to like the woman beside him, everything about her was mesmerizing, especially her smile. He returned to the country to take care of someone, but it seems like he found something else to fill his intrigue for the time being. ¡°Ok¡± Adia hesitated, hatching a n in her mind, because, he can never find out where she lives. ¡°Then hop in¡± Logan gestured titling his head as Adia obliged. Adia was now regretting why she obliged, she could have just politely refused, even if he saved her earlier, but rejecting him seemed inappropriate, she thought as she gave him an address. Adia got out of the car, once they arrived at her destination, Logan lowered his head to look at her through the window, ¡°It was night meeting you, even though we met in the most akward situation¡± he said as Adia chuckled. ¡± It was nice meeting you too¡± ¡± I¡¯ll see you some other time, just have it in mind that you owe me, three dinners¡± Logan informed as he hit the road. Adia watched silently as his ck Bentley continental drove away, from the look of things, he was also rich and well doing too. ¡°Oh my¡± Adia gasped, realizing she has taken too much time as she boarded a taxi to go home, it was actually a seven minutes ride from where she was. ***** Adia sneaked swiftly as she slided into her room, without being noticed, luckily, no one was around to spot her. She inhaled in relief, closing the door behind her, today has been quite an eventful day for her, as she narrowly escaped death, if not for the kind gesture of Logan Moreau, the handsome friend she just made, and owed three dinners. She slipped into the bathroom to get a quick shower, looking at the time, she discovered it was already six, time for dinner, any moment from now Samantha wille knocking. Just as she predicted, about six minutester, a loud knock came as she quickly straightened up herself. ¡°Come in¡± she said as the door clicked open. ¡°Monique¡± she called as a girl walked in, but to her dismay, this one was a brte haired girl, the one earlier was blonde. ¡°Actually it¡¯s Monica, Monique¡¯s twin, ma¡¯am, I¡¯m filling the ce of my mother¡± she informed, as Adia took a quick nce at her, this one looked innocent,pared to Monique, with fair skin and a little cute face.This content is ? N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Ok,¡± ¡°It¡¯s time for dinner¡± she continued as Adia nodded. ¡°I¡¯ll be behind you¡± ¡°How was your trip to the outside world?¡± She added as Adia froze on her spot, pointing at her in shock. ATTENTION ¡°I know about the little game you and my sister are ying, but don¡¯t worry, I won¡¯t tell, as long as you¡¯re careful¡± Monica added as Adia smiled in relief. ¡°Thanks¡± ¡°Hmm,e on ma¡¯am, it¡¯s time for dinner¡± Monica led Adia downstairs, who couldn¡¯t fathom whatever she was feeling now, Monica and Monique, has been working for Sebastian¡¯s family, since God knows when, what if they decide to blow her cover one day, besides they¡¯ll be more loyal to their master not her, but nheless, she¡¯s gonna be ready to face Sebastian. ¡°Adia¡± a voice echoed in the dinner hall, as Adia alighted the stairs, Monica alongside. ¡°Ace!!¡¯ she eximed in surprise, she didn¡¯t expect to see him. ¡± Sister-inw¡± he called, engulfing Adia in a hug, the moment she stepped down. ¡± I didn¡¯t expect to see you so soon, seeing you ghosted me for even a month, not even a phone call¡± Adia wrapped her arms around her bosom, wearing a frown on her face. ¡± I swear I asked after you everyday, but Sebastian never allowed me toe over, it seems as if he¡¯s over protective of you¡± Ace grinned as Adia rolled her eyes inwardly. Overprotecting my foot, Adia sneered in her thoughts, he didn¡¯t even ask after her, during that one month, nor was he in the house. Adia looked up and realized Ace was not the only guest present, Rowan and Sebastian were discussing something over a cup of coffee, a discussion that seemed so important, that they didn¡¯t even spare her a nce. While Arion sat on a sofa, his long legs stretched out, as he chewed gumzily, ignoring her as well. ¡°I was about having dinner, do join me¡± Adia smiled inviting Ace, the only person that seems to acknowledge her presence in the house. ¡°Sure, I was already starving. ¡± Ace responded as they both sat opposite each other, ready to feast on the scrumptious meal served before them. ***** Adia and Ace sat and gisted jovially about his travel to Florida as he told her about his trip, just then something hit Adia as she called for Ace¡¯s attention. ¡°My birthday¡¯s next week, it¡¯s on a Saturday¡± Adia whispered to Ace happily, little did she know the peering ears of the vampires in the room caught what she said. ¡°Wow, that¡¯s great,¡± Ace eximed. ¡°Well considering it¡¯s also¡­.¡± ¡°Can we talk about that some other time¡± Ace interrupted, stopping Adia, from whatever she was gonna say, he knew clearly well the others could hear their conversation, and thest thing he wanted was for Sebastian to get suspicious of whatever he nned with him, at least not yet. ¡°Okkkk¡± Adia stressed out, staring at him curiously. ¡°Do you wanna go out, I think you¡¯ll be bored locked up in here¡± Ace proposed as Adia face lit up. ¡°Sure, where are we going?¡± Adia asked enthusiastically. ¡°Anywhere, fine by me¡± ¡°We can go explore the city¡± Adia suggested as Ace agreed right away. ¡°Sure, tomorrow¡±This content is ? N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Sure¡± ¡°You¡¯re so sweet Ace¡± Adia squealed, hugging him tight, he¡¯s the only one who makes her feel at home here. ¡°You¡¯re going Nowhere¡± a deep menacing voice, broke out, cutting Adia¡¯s joy short. ¡°What..¡± Adia stuttered, staring at Sebastian in disbelief. ¡°I say you go nowhere, Ace¡± Sebastian called in a warning tone. ¡°But why, you can¡¯t just keep me locked up in here¡± Adiained getting up on her feet. ¡°Yes I can¡± ¡°No you can¡¯t Sebastian hunters, I¡¯m not a fucking ve¡± Adiained, feeling like walking up to him, and punch him hard in the face. ¡°Mickelson, take her upstairs¡± Sebastian ordered, with a stoic face, not in the mood to argue with her. ¡± Don¡¯t you dare touch me!¡± Adia yelled at Mickelson, as he ignored her. ¡± I swear, I¡¯ll kill you if youe any closer¡± Adia threatened but Mickelson ignored her again. ¡± Get lost¡± she screamed, as everyone focused on her, but she didn¡¯t care as she stormed up to Sebastian. ¡± You can¡¯t be serious¡± she sneered, as she stood in front of him, she couldn¡¯t just keep her cool anymore, it was already getting out of hand. ¡°I am, Adia¡± he responded, not meeting her gaze as he continued working on hisptop, not giving a shit about her presence. ¡°You know what, I¡¯m gonna leave this house tomorrow, and there¡¯s not a damn thing you¡¯ll do about it¡± Adia threatened, hoping to gain his attention but all her efforts were futile. ¡± Sebastian,¡± she called again. ¡± Sebastian¡± she called again but got no response, that got her furious as a new wave of anger rushed in. ¡± Listen to me for Christ sake¡± she yelled, grabbing hisptop away from him, as she held it tight. ¡°Adia, what the hell do you think you¡¯re doing?¡± He queried angrily, his patience with her running thin. ¡°Getting your attention of course, now stay still and listen to me, or else I won¡¯t hesitate to smash thisptop in pieces¡± Adia warned as Sebastian red at her in disbelief, how dare a mere human threaten him. He could have ignored her, and walked away, but hisptop contained important documents that had not yet been backed up. ¡°What do you want?¡± He finally gave in, as everyone stared at him in shock, Sebastian never gave in to anyone, their lifeless bodies would have already been on the floor by now. ¡°Three hours, just three hours to go out with Ace, and I¡¯m sure he¡¯ll protect me, right Ace?¡± Adia asked, diverting her attention to him. ¡°Sure, I can very much do that¡± he responded, ignoring Sebastian¡¯s deadly res. ¡°See, he¡¯ll keep me safe, Mickelson cane along too¡± ¡± Adia..¡± Sebastian called giving her a warning re, but she refused to be swayed, this time around. ¡± No, no don¡¯t give me that look¡± ¡± What look?¡± ¡± This look¡± Adia exined a gloomy look stered on her face as she imitated Sebastian, which earned a chuckle from Ace and Rowan, at the funny face she made. ¡± You always give me that look, whenever you want to bully me,¡± she continued. ¡°Bully you?¡± Sebastian asked, raising a brow at her. ¡± Yes, you¡¯ve never been kind to me, since the day I stepped in, you don¡¯t even spare me a nce¡± Adia began, but Sebastian was already getting bored with her, so he had no choice but to sumb to her demands. ¡± Three hours, be back before noon, myptop¡± he reluctantly agreed, as he requested for hisptop. ¡°Thanks¡± Adia squealed happily, as she rushed to hug him, surprising Sebastian in the process. ¡°Sorry¡± Adia apologized, dropping theptop on the table, as she rushed upstairs shyly, she never intended to hug him, she just allowed her joy, get the best of her. ¡°Oh, What a heartwarming moment¡± Arion chimed in sarcastically as he couldn¡¯t help but curve his lips like a sky fox. It felt so refreshing to see Sebastian being tossed around like this. ¡°Looks like I¡¯m gonna spend a hell of a long time here¡± he added as he chuckled loudly. HOPES DASHED Adia sprang up from the bed with a lot of enthusiasm bubbling up within her, she¡¯s gonna finally leave this house today, with Ace, and she was beyond happy. The fact that she left the day before, didn¡¯t settle too far ell with her, seeing she almost died, and the fact she was on high alert, in case, she came in contact with anyone, so this time was different, she¡¯s gonna be free and do the things she really wanted to do. Now that she¡¯s pregnant, she really has lots of cravings. After a quick shower, Adia quickly dressed up, a tank top with trousers, as she packed her hair in a ponytail. She rushed downstairs. ¡°Ace, I¡¯m ready,¡± she said gleefully, ready to go. ¡°Breakfast¡± Ace recalled, pointing at the dinner table, making Adia chuckle, she had totally forgotten about breakfast, all that was in her head now, I had to leave the house. ¡°Sure, do join me¡± she invited, taking her seat. ¡± I¡¯ll have breakfastter, ¡± he responded as he signaled George the butler. George immediately knew what he wanted, as he went to get a cup of blood for the young Master. Having Adia, living with them, for the past few weeks, has been kind of troublesome for some of them. Most of the staff working under Sebastian were vampires, sired by him. The only few humans around were meant for feeding Sebastian and some of his guards. As he clearly forbade them, that¡¯s the workers like him, from drinking blood. He served Ace a cup of blood, the cup being made of gold, thus, Adia really had no idea about what was inside it, with the thought that the cup contained wine. ¡°The sea food here is great,¡± Ace informed, smiling lightly, as he passed a te to Adia. ¡°Ok thanks¡± Adia responded, putting some into her mouth, and he was right, it tasted divine. ¡°Wow.. that¡¯s really good, I think I¡¯ll have these often¡± Adia said mouthful. A momentter, Arion alighted from the stairs, as he took a seat opposite Adiazily. ¡°Hey¡± Adia waved as he nodded at her, she couldn¡¯t help but sneer at him, he and Sebastian had the same thing inmon, cold and aloof, but this Ace of a guy seemed more stiff. ¡°Here Have some breakfast¡± Adia offered, only to receive a re from Arion. ¡°I¡¯d rather pass,¡± he declined, snapping his fingers, gaining George¡¯s attention. ¡°Tequ please, and the usual should be in it¡± he ordered as George went to get the usual. Tequ mixed with blood.N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. ¡°Sir¡±he served the cup as Arion waved him off. Taking a sip from the cup, he brought out a lighter and a packet of cigarettes from his pocket as he lit it, taking a smoke from it. ¡°Asshole¡± Ace cursed, sending hard res at him. ¡°What??¡± He asked, with an innocent look on his face. ¡°Have some manners, will you?¡± Ace spat out, not removing his gaze from Arion. ¡°About what?¡± He retorted, as he took another smoke, blowing it out again, as Adia shifted ufortably, there was this hate, she had for smokers, she couldn¡¯t help but curse at Arion, Wondering, what she might have done wrong to him and Sebastian, to receive a cold treatment from them. ¡°She¡¯s fucking pregnant, at least let that stink in your brain¡± he said through gritted teeth. ¡°And this¡¯s a dinning room for god fucking sake, not a smoker grill¡± ¡± What if she¡¯s pregnant, we all know, she¡¯s better off dead¡± Arion blurted out dryly, taking another long smoke, as Adia red at him with a questioning gaze. ¡°What¡¯s the point of all these any way, giving some one a false Hope, you guys should just tell her the fucking truth, all these sucks¡± Arion said getting up on his feet. ¡°Am out of here¡± he said walking away, as Adia looked at Ace with curious eyes, ¡®what the hell was Arion talking about?¡¯ she couldn¡¯t help but wonder. Ace could swear that all he wanted to do at that moment was snap Arion¡¯s head into two. For some strange reason, Arion has been against the idea of Adia being pregnant knowing she would die soon, he was against them lying to her, as he felt that it would be better if she knew the truth. ¡°What did he say¡­?¡± Adia asked immediately if Arion was out of sight. ¡°Um¡­. he..¡± Ace flustered trying to find the right excuse to give. ¡°Actually I¡¯m not taking you out any longer¡± he said as Adia shoulders fell, she was already anticipating this, ¡°But you promised¡± Adia retorted, feeling like copsing, she could feel her heart already failing, she had put so much anticipation on the outing. ¡°My apologies, buy Sebastian promised to make it up to you¡± he added hoping she would understand, actually they had pressing matters back in the province, where rogue vampires were invading Britaris, so all the elite families have been requested toe over, and that¡¯s where they were all going to, infact Sebastian was already long gone. He just waited for Adia to wake up first, because he felt pity for her. Sebastian was being too Cold, and it would be too rude to leave her hanging, so he came up with a better idea. ¡°But I have some good news¡± he broke out smiling, as Adia looked at him, hot tears already threatening to fall out any time. ¡°I talked to Sebastian, and he agreed to allow Cora and your sistere over, they¡¯ll be here before noon¡± he informed, but that¡¯s not what Adia wanted for Christ sake, she wanted to leave the house and visit others, not to be the one visited. ¡°Okay¡± she reluctantly agreed, seeing she had no choice, cause from the look of things, Sebastian was nowhere around the house. ¡°Sebastian¡¯s not home I guess?¡± She voiced out as Ace nodded. ¡°Busy¡± came Ace¡¯s curt reply. ¡°Always busy¡± Adia sneered as Ace chuckled. ¡°We¡¯ll all be back by weekend, take care of yourself¡± Ace added, stepping out of the dining room. Adia sat quietly, hatching a n on her head, their trip was actually good news, she could sneak out anytime and have enough time for herself. Adia couldn¡¯t help but feel grateful and Hope that they spend more time on their trip. MARRIED FOR BENEFITS ¡± Like I said earlier, my stay here is the worst nightmare ever, I¡¯m not even allowed to leave this house¡± Adiained bitterly while she and Cora discussed over a cup of coffee. ¡± But I think it¡¯s for your best interest¡± Cora said trying to sound convincing, she¡¯s already aware that Sebastian and the rest of the vampires were recently not in the city, because of the matters arising in Britaris. ¡± Easy for you to say, you¡¯re not the one denied freedom, being locked up sucks¡± Adia grunted again angrily. ¡°I¡¯m so sorry, but it¡¯s only a matter of time, very soon all of these would be over¡± said Cora patting Adia¡¯s head softly, feeling sorry for her unfortunate friend. ¡°I hope so¡± responded Adia, trying to lift up her mood.N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. ¡°How¡¯s Addison doing?¡± She asked as they both diverted their gaze to Addison, who was busy watching cartoons. ¡°Pretty good, Sebastian helped in enrolling her in one of the best schools, Adia¡± Cora called with a serious look on her face as Adia turned her gaze to meet hers. ¡°Yes¡± ¡°Don¡¯t you think it¡¯s time to focus on yourself, you have a life Adia, same with Addison, and to crown it all, you¡¯re pregnant and married¡± ¡°Married for benefits¡± Adia corrected with a sneer. ¡°I Know, but that can change, you can change that and live happily with your baby¡± Cora added knowing there might still be a chance for adia to win Sebastian¡¯s heart. ¡°That¡¯s the problem we have here¡± Adia grunted. ¡°He doesn¡¯t even spare a nce at me, he treats me like some stranger, as if am just a tool carrying his child, that he can dispose anytime, it¡¯s like i¡¯m invisible¡± Adiained about all Sebastian¡¯s been doing, it really infuriated her. ¡± Not to mention, he locks me up¡± ¡± But that can change, you can make him love you¡± Cora said in a low voice. ¡± But I don¡¯t feel anything but hate and anger towards him¡± Adia said in the same low voice Cora used. ¡°Anything can happen, at least do that for your child, I Know he can be annoying, but what about the future of your baby, I hope you don¡¯t want another woman taking care of him or her, that would hurt a lot¡± ¡± So what are you trying to imply here?¡± Adia asked. ¡± Just try and make things right between the two of you¡± Cora tried suggesting to Adia. ¡± And I guess you do find him attractive, don¡¯t you?¡± Cora asked, shrugging Adia shoulders, with a sly smile on her face. ¡± Of course yes, anyone would fall for those looks, Monica¡± Adia called, as her face flushed, on how sheplimented Sebastian. ¡± Ma¡¯am¡± Monica answered,ing forward. ¡± Some chips and guacamole, with cold orange juice, please¡± ordered Adia as Monica went to get the items. ¡± Someone¡¯s living like a queen here¡± sneered Cora yfully. ¡± Oh please, justmon cravings because of the pregnancy¡± Adia said and almost immediately, her phone rang, ¡± I¡¯ll get this¡± Adia said walking away, wondering who it might be, seeing it was an unknown number. ¡± Hello,¡± she murmured. ¡± Hey, Adia¡±a deep maic voice, peered from the phone, and Adia immediately recognized whose voice it was, her handsome savior. ¡± Hey¡± she responded, pretending as if she didn¡¯t know who¡¯s on the other line. ¡± Logan speaking¡± he said, ¡°How are you doing?¡± Adia asked enthusiastically. ¡°I¡¯m good, you?¡± ¡°Good as new¡± Adia chuckled sheepishly, wanting the conversation to end as soon as possible, thest thing she wants is for Cora to know about this. ¡°Just called to remind you, that you owe me three dinners, why don¡¯t we begin with the first one, what do you think?¡± Logan asked with great expectations, hoping she would ept his request, given the fact that she¡¯s pregnant, there¡¯s a man, but he didn¡¯t mind getting that man out of his way, he already has his eyes on her, he¡¯ll just get to know her first. ¡°Ohkay¡± Adia epted, after hesitating for a while. ¡°I¡¯ll pick you up at 6¡± ¡°Ok, then¡± Adia responded, taking in a deep breath, Cora and Addison will leave before noon, so she still has a chance at seeing him. She¡¯ll just spend an hour with Logan and be back before anyone notices her absence. ¡°Adia¡± Cora called from behind, startling Adia, who quickly turned to face her. ¡°Yes¡± ¡°Who¡¯s that?¡± Cora asked curiously. ¡°Just a business friend, I ordered coffee at Le surmats a caffeine. You know it¡¯s my favorite, it¡¯s justmon cravings¡± Adia said chuckling nervously. ¡± Ok, I can go get it ¡­.¡± ¡°No, no, I¡¯ll just order for it, no need to stress yourself,e on, let¡¯s go have some guacamole, Monica makes the best¡± She added, dragging Cora along, before she quickly disconnected the call, which has been hanging since. ¡°It¡¯s tasty right?¡± Adia asked as Cora nodded positively. Almost two minutester, she received a text from Logan. ¡® let¡¯s meet at St Anne, beside the annex¡¯ ¡®ok,¡¯ she quickly texted back, before returning her attention to Cora. ***** ¡°I learnt you love the coffee here¡± Logan said as Adia looked at him with a confused look. ¡°How did you¡­?¡± ¡°I didn¡¯t mean to pry, heard your little conversation, no offense though¡± ¡± Ohkay!!¡± Adia uttered softly with a smile. ¡± You see, I¡¯m actually new here, so I thought it would be nice to make friends¡± Logan informed, Adia couldn¡¯t help but marvel at his gentle and nice voice. ¡± I can be your friend¡± Adia spat, regretting why she said that almost immediately, she¡¯s not meant to make friends, Sebastian would kill her, if he ever finds out. ¡± On our second date, I¡¯ll prefer you take me on a tour, my good friend,¡± Logan suggested, his lips curving up, at the sight of her beautiful face. ¡®She looks so pretty and innocent¡¯ he thought. ¡°We¡¯ll see about that, so what did you love about here?¡± Adia asked, trying to bring up a conversation. ¡°You¡± came Logan¡¯s sudden reply, making Adia look up at him, with a questioning gaze. ¡°Excuse me, i¡­i..¡± ¡°I mean I love having you around¡± he broke in smiling. ¡°We just met,¡± stated Adia. ¡°I must confess then, those little moments were precious to me¡± he added as Adia held a passive look on her face. ¡®is he f**king hitting on her¡¯ Adia thought, screaming loudly in her head. ¡°Your coffee¡¯s getting cold, drink up, I¡¯ll be back in a sec, I just need to make a quick call¡± in a swift moment Adia was already out, as she quickly walked outside to get some fresh air. GO FOR MICK ¡°Whoa!¡± Eximed Adia loudly, watching the city that buzzed with life. As she turned to leave, she bumped into Logan, who was surprisingly outside ¡°I thought you¡± ¡°I decided to do something else, let¡¯s take a stroll round¡± Logan suggested as Adia took a look at her watch, it was passed seven, so she still has a little time left. ¡°Fine, I¡¯ll go get my purse¡± ¡°Here¡± Logan said, handing out the purse to her. ¡°I knew you would agree, so I brought it out to save you the stress,e on¡± gestured Logan, giving Adia no time to speak as they walked alongside. As they both walked, through the pathway, many turned their heads, towards them as they both looked like dazzling couples, under the streets light. This was especially true for Logan, who looked so handsome, Adia equally pretty too, the moonlight also added to his beauty. ¡°Why are you walking so fast?¡± Logan asked Adia, who seemed to be in a hurry, and was already ahead of him. Adia shook her head as she joked, ¡± Can¡¯t you see how the pretty girls are staring at you, don¡¯t want to give the wrong impression¡± ¡°First of all, they¡¯re not as pretty as you, also I don¡¯t think they¡¯ll ever have the chance¡± came Logan¡¯s serious reply, as Adia swallowed deep, not knowing if to blush or just push what he said aside.N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. ¡± Instead of worry about leaches, let¡¯s do something fun¡± ¡± Well, am quite parched, I need something cold¡± ¡± Let¡¯s go get some cold drinks then¡± said Logan dragging a smiling Adia along. A few fun won¡¯t hurt, she thought as Logan purchased the drinks. ***** ¡± Whoa, I can believe that, like seriously!¡± Adia eximed,ughing loudly. ¡± I know right, that was so hrious¡± ¡± Oh geez, we should hang out more often¡± said Adia, to her Logan was really fun to be around with, he¡¯s a really nice person, and would make a very good friend. ¡± Sure, I¡¯d love that¡± ¡°Then I guess we have to call it a day, it¡¯s getting dark, I¡¯ve to get home¡± ¡°I¡¯ll give you a ride¡± offered Logan, giving his best smile. ¡°Okay, thanks¡± Adia didn¡¯t bother to refuse him this time, she¡¯s already beginning to see him as a good friend, and secondly, it¡¯ll be better to ept the ride, cause a taxi, will be hard to get by this time. After getting into the car, he asked, ¡°Usual spot right?¡± ¡°Yea¡± responded Adia, who didn¡¯t want to give him, an exact location, just yet. Logan drove out of the parking lot, a he asked, ¡°Where do you wanna meet next time?¡± ¡°I say we wait till then, don¡¯t you think!¡± ¡± No problem¡± ***** ¡± Thanks so much for the ride Logan¡± ¡± Not a problem¡± ¡± I¡¯ll get going now¡± said Adia making her way for the door, but was having problems with the seat belt, as it was stuck. ¡± Let me help with that¡± offered Logan, and before Adia could hesitate, he was already working on it, so she had no choice than to obliged. ¡± Done¡± Logan who was already retracting, stopped midway in a daze, lost in her enchanted beauty. Adia wore a frown on her face, as she realized that Logan has been staring for too long now, she didn¡¯t want anything to be awkward between them. They were nothing but friends. ¡°Am sorry¡± Logan quickly apologized, retracting back to his seat, watching as she walked into the darkness, he realized, she¡¯s the first human he¡¯s ever apologized to, he has not even said sorry to a vampire, not to talk of a weak creature, a mere human. He signed heavily, dialing a number ¡°Sir¡± Griffin¡¯s deep voice echoed from the other side of the line. ¡°Prepare my dinner, strictly brte¡± he ordered turning on the ignition key, before driving away ***** Adia freshened up quickly, before Putting on her pajamas, thankfully no one suspected her movements. She couldn¡¯t help, but wondered what, Sebastian was up to now, Is he with some other woman, why is he so cold to her? His birthday wasing up this weekend, which is also surprising her birthday also, and she has ns for it. Ace mentioned that he doesn¡¯t celebrate birthdays, so she¡¯ll just try and make an exception this year. She¡¯ll have to ask Monica and Monique for help, a loud knock came, breaking her from her ocean of thoughts, as she walked to the door. ¡°Milkelson¡± she called, seeing the ever serious guard, who hardly smiles or talks, and is always devoted to his work. ¡°Miss Adia, sir Sebastian called to ask if you¡¯re faring well?¡± He informed, as Adia sneered inwardly. He could have just called, besides, I never knew, he¡¯d care so much to ask about my welfare¡¯ she thought. ¡± As you can see, I¡¯m perfectly fine, except the fact that boringness is killing me softly, do tell him that ¡± she said with a high note of sarcasm. ¡°I¡¯ll make sure to deliver your message ma¡¯am, and if you¡¯re bored, there¡¯re lots of things to do around here¡± ¡°Water the flowers, Converse with the servants, whom Sebastian your master, has clearly warned me to steer clear from, or what else watch movies,e on, Mickelson, I can keep on repeating the same circle, everyday¡± scoffed Adia loudly, this is the longest conversation, she¡¯s ever had, with this stiff man, she can¡¯t just believe, that they¡¯ll both stand by her door post one day, conversing. ¡°Ma¡¯am, what would you like to be around here, to keep youpany?¡± He enquired, but it only resulted in Adia, ring daggers at him. ¡°I want to leave this damn prison, and please drop the honorifics, it makes me feel sick¡± Adia stated, as the word ¡®ma¡¯am didn¡¯t settle well with her. ¡°Then what can I call you, ma¡¯am?¡± ¡°Adia, it¡¯s Adia, drop the ma¡¯am, of a thing, speaking of names, your name Mickelson¡± ¡± What¡¯s wrong with the name, ma¡¯am?¡± He asked as Adia red at him. ¡± It¡¯s pretty too long for me, I think I¡¯ll settle for something else, like a nickname¡± suggested Adia, as Mickelson wondered what has gotten into Adia these days, she is just getting bolder and bolder. ¡°Mickel, no, Mi, ( like m¡­. I) no, I think we¡¯ll just settle for Mick, what do you think?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t know¡± ¡°Oh geez, you¡¯re just as nd as your boss, I don¡¯t get it, where did they get you both from, so boring¡± Adia bbed on, as Mickelson just watched in silence, the young Dares to think ill of the master. ¡± You know what, I¡¯m feeling dizzy already¡± said Adia, who was already feeling her head spinning. ¡°Good night, Mick, and drop the honorifics¡± concluded Adia, as she quickly closed her door, leaving a speechless Mickelson outside, who couldn¡¯t help but wonder where his boss got this wild woman from. ¡° ENEMY Adia groaned loudly, as the rays of the sun hit her eyes, as she wondered who was Disturbing her peaceful sleep. ¡°Morning miss Adia¡± Monica¡¯s cheerful voice greeted as she removed the shutters. ¡°Morning, ¡± Adia yawned loudly, sitting up from the bed, with ruffled hair. She had such a good sleepst night, and can only wish itsted longer. ¡°Seems like you had a great sleep¡±mented Monica, seeing her reluctance to get up from the bed. ¡°Yes, which you clearly disturbed¡± Adia responded as they both chuckled sheepishly. ¡°Well I have some good news¡± informed Monica with a wide smile on her face. ¡°Which is?¡± Adia queried, picking up a ss of water from the Bedside as she drank from it. ¡°Master Sebastian, just arrivedst night¡± she broke out happily, as Adia suddenly spat out the water she was drinking. ¡°Say what now!!¡± Adia eximed in shock, why is he back so soon, she couldn¡¯t help but ask. ¡°Your husband¡¯s back and master Ace, said to give you this¡± Monica said, handing over a letter to Adia, as she read it out. ¡°Oh geez, I totally forgot!¡± Squealed Adia in shock. Her birthday is tomorrow, and she has not even nned for it. ording to the letter Ace sent, he¡¯ll not be back till tomorrow, so she¡¯ll have to look for help elsewhere. ¡°Well happy birthday in advance miss, we¡¯re gonna throw a party right, can¡¯t believe, you and the master are birthday mates¡± ¡°Like I totally forgot tomorrow¡¯s Saturday, my birthday, I¡¯ve not even done anything, ¡± gasped Adia, she totally forgot about all of it. She would have rushed to get some things and gifts, but sadly her movements are restricted, because of a certain someone. ¡°Luckily, you have me, since you¡¯re not allowed to leave, I can help you get anything you need,¡± volunteered Monica, who was more than willing to help. ¡± Look, I¡¯ll need your help, but first, I¡¯ll need to talk to a certain someone, no offense though, where¡¯s my husband study located?¡± Asked Adia, she¡¯s never gone to his study, in fact she has never stepped foot, on his floor, which is thest floor, and she does not intend to do so, but seems like she¡¯s gonna need a little favor from him. ¡± Thest floor, thest room on the right wing¡± ¡± Thanks, I¡¯ll be back¡± and with that, Adia stormed out of the room with a sh. ***** Monica was walking along the corridors, when someone dragged her into a room forcefully. ¡°You fool¡± cursed Monique with anger zing in her eyes, as she mmed her sister on the wall. ¡°What was that for?¡± Asked Monica, rubbing her aching elbow softly, which her sister has grabbed with force. ¡°You¡¯re just a fool, how dare you help my enemy¡± ¡°And who¡¯s your enemy here?¡± ¡°You know, I¡¯ve been working on how to throw Adia, out of this house and here, you¡¯re helping her getting closer to Master Sebastian¡± spat Monique angrily. ¡°I thought, we¡¯ve gotten over with this¡± ¡°No we¡¯re fucking not, at least not until Adia is out of the way¡± ¡°The master will never notice you¡± deadpanned Monica, as she couldn¡¯t fathom where her sister¡¯s obsession wasing from.N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. ¡°Of course he will, I¡¯ll see to that, and that is when Adia is out of the way¡± Swore Monique. ¡°We¡¯ve been in this house since we were five, up until now, even before Adia came, he never noticed you, I¡¯m sure you know the kind of person the master is?¡± Asked Monica. ¡°He¡¯s cold and aloof, look, that¡¯s what I love about him and don¡¯t forget he hates betrayals, that¡¯s exactly what Adia¡¯s gonna do to him, look, I had someone follow her trail, and she¡¯s been seeing some guy, probably that baby is not for the master¡± reasoned Monique, she really hated Adia, as she feels she came to steal everything from her. ¡± You¡¯re just amon maid¡± reminded Monica, hoping her sister would know where she stands. ¡± I Know¡± ¡± The master hates betrayals, and you¡¯re doing something like this¡± ¡± It¡¯s called love, besides who¡¯s gonna tell him, I¡¯m your sister, so you¡¯re gonna stand by me, and tell no one¡± Warned Monique, she¡¯s going to go to any lengths to get what she wants. ¡± I¡¯m never gonna be a part of this¡± ¡± Yes you¡¯re, and you need to stop Adia from throwing that party,¡± ¡± You¡¯re such a dick¡± cursed Monica, staring at her sister in disgust. ¡± I¡¯m out of here¡± added Monica, leaving her vile sister alone. ¡°Fuck you, I don¡¯t need you anyways, infact let Adia celebrate the master¡¯s birthday, I just remembered, how much he hates birthdays, he¡¯s only gonna squeeze life out of her, if she mentions anything like that and I have a little n, to add fuel to the fire¡± said Monique, as sheughed out sadonically, as her lips curved up in an evil smile. ***** Adia was walking briskly to Sebastian¡¯s study room, when she saw Samantha, who was obviously heading there, with a cup of coffee, she smiled widely, as an idea urred to her. ¡°Samantha¡± she called out, as Samantha stopped in her tracks. ¡°Miss Adia, is there anything you need?¡± ¡°Actually yes, you¡¯re heading to my husband¡¯s study right?¡± Asked Adia, stating the obvious, as Sebastian is the only one that lives on thest floor. ¡°Yes ma¡¯am¡± ¡°Great, I¡¯ll take it from her, I¡¯ll serve him coffee myself¡± offered Adia, who was seeing this as a good leverage, to meet with Sebastian, who she couldn¡¯t understand, why he came back so soon, all she wanted was for him to stay longer in his trip. But luckily there¡¯s something she needs from him, so it¡¯s actually a good thing he came back, but she hopes he leaves after the birthday. ¡°Ok ma¡¯am¡± Samantha obliged, seeing no reason to argue with the young miss, since it¡¯ll even be better to get them closer, this way. ¡°Thank you¡± muttered Adia, collecting the tray from her, before heading to Sebastian¡¯s room, taking in deep breaths, she¡¯s probably going to face the person she¡¯s supposed to hate, who¡¯s strangely the father of her unborn baby. FEELING SICK Adia took in deep breaths, as she got to Sebastian¡¯s doorpost, she took deep breaths, before knocking on the door. ¡°Come in¡± his deep husky voice startled her, as she took in one deep breath, before going in slowly. ¡°What do you want?¡± Sebastian asked, having sensed that it was not the usual person that brought his coffee, it was someone else, his supposed wife. ¡± I brought coffee¡± responded Adia, with shaky breaths, he was currently working on something, so she couldn¡¯t see his face, but from the side view, she was seeing, he looked so damn hot and handsome, not to forget his tattoos peeking out, this is the first time, she¡¯s seeing him on a tee-shirt, she didn¡¯t have the slightest idea that he had a tattoo. At the other side of the table, she could see a pack of cigarettes and a lighter. He smokes, thought Adia to herself. But she has never seen him do it openly, unlike his nasty brother. He looked so damn handsome, with his brown hair with a red shade that looked slightly wet, and had strands strapped on his forehead, with a sheen of sweat. Looks like he¡¯s been working for a long time now, thought Adia. ¡°Hmm hmm¡± Adia coughed loudly, preparing to begin her speech. ¡°I told her I would take care of it¡± she said, as Sebastian pointed out, gesturing for her to drop the tray on the table. ¡°Also, I wanted to talk¡± she began ¡°I¡¯m busy¡± came his curt reply. ¡± I can wait¡± she said, and for the first time since she came in, he looked up at her. ¡± You always tend to be stubborn, be my guest¡± he said, retracting his gaze from her, as he returned to his work. Adia arranged her cors, as she found afortable ce to sit, she¡¯s not even had breakfast this morning, nor has she freshened up, but here she is waiting for her husband to have her time, instead of him to serve her breakfast, and make sure she eats. Today, she¡¯s going to be relentless, and wait till he¡¯s ready to speak to her. She watched as he worked diligently on hisptop. Momentster, he reaches out for his pack of cigarettes, as he brings out a lighter. Don¡¯t tell me he¡¯s just as nasty as that brother of his¡¯ Just as she was about to protest, Sebastian got up from his chair walking to the window, before lighting up the cigarette. Adia couldn¡¯t help but watch silently as he smoked, luckily he was near the window, so the smell didn¡¯t affect her much.C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org After taking about three cigarettes, he walked back to his chair to resume his work. Adia grunted loudly. She¡¯s been sitting here for about an hour now, just waiting on him. He¡¯s never gonna give a damn about her feelings, of course he made her feel so bad. Monique came into the study after knocking on the door, ¡°Master Sebastian, miss Adia¡± she bowed in respect, but inwardly, she was boiling hot, What the hell is Adia doing in Sebastian¡¯s office, when he hardly allows anyone in, aside from Rowan, and that¡¯s only on business calls. ¡°Miss Adia, your breakfast is getting cold, pleasee down for breakfast¡± she informed, happy to remove Adia, from the four corners of this study, but unfortunately, Adia had other ns in mind. ¡± I¡¯d rather have my breakfast here, please send it over¡± Requested Adia as Monique threw a nce at Sebastian, who was busy fiddling with a pen, as he worked on a few files. Such a handsome god, praised Monique as she admired his good looks discreetly. ¡°ma¡¯am¡± she called out pretending as if she didn¡¯t hear what Adia said. ¡± I¡¯d rather have breakfast in my husband¡¯s study, so please bring it in¡± Adia politely repeated, as Monique, threw another nce at Sebastian, who hasn¡¯t said a word since. Who does this woman think she is?, Monique asked angrily, but she was actually happy that she asked, but was angry at her guts to ask. Reason being that, Sebastian never eats in his study, giving, he doesn¡¯t allow it, she¡¯s sure he¡¯s gonna shun her. ¡°Sir¡­she¡± ¡°Are you deaf, you heard her¡± Sebastian¡¯s voice thundered, sending chills down Monique¡¯s spine. ¡°But sir, it¡¯s not¡­¡± ¡°And who are you to say that, I think you¡¯ve forgotten your ce, and dare question me,stly she¡¯s the miss of this house and don¡¯t you dare question hermand¡± warned Sebastian in a calm voice, but any idiot to will not dare fall for his calm demeanor as it¡¯s clearly a death warning. ¡°Am so sorry sir, forgive me¡± Monique quickly apologized as she squirted out of the room. Adia just sat quietly, as she has nothing to say to this, Sebastian¡¯s so scary and his employees seem to fear him a lot, but anyone would. ¡°Why did you do that?¡± She couldn¡¯t help but ask. ¡°Know your ce ¡± he said without looking up. ¡°When you always lock me up right?¡± ¡°It¡¯s for your safety¡± ¡°Safety my foot, look I need to go out, Mick can protect me¡± ¡°I¡¯m busy¡± came his next words. He was doing it again, shutting her up, he always does it. ¡°I have a question, I know you won¡¯t reply, but I¡¯ll ask still¡± began Adia. ¡°Why did you bring me in, when you hate me so much?¡± She asked as Sebastian¡¯s hands stilled. ¡°I don¡¯t hate you¡± came his shocking reply, surprising Adia. ¡°Of course you do, you just treat me as some tool, it doesn¡¯t even feel like am married¡± ¡°You didn¡¯t sign up for romance did you?¡± Asked Sebastian looking up at her. ¡± I didn¡¯t but stop avoiding me like some gue, I¡¯m not even asking for attention, in fact I don¡¯t need you, I.. I.. just..¡± Adia stopped in her tracks holding her forehead, she¡¯s been feeling dizzytely. ¡± What is it?¡± Asked Sebastian alerted, by her sudden pause. ¡± Just a slight headache, am fine, why do you even care, I¡¯m leaving¡± stated Adia, getting up from the chair, only to be weed by a sharp pain on her head. ¡°Ow..¡± she whimpered, holding her head, staggering backwards. ¡°What¡¯s the problem?¡± Asked Sebastian standing up from his chair walking towards her, as he held her. ¡°Just a slight headache¡± responded Adia softly, as he led her back to the sofa. ¡°Take a seat¡± cing a pillow by her back, he squatted in front of her as he brought out his phone. ¡°I¡¯ll speak with Evans¡± ¡°No, no, no¡± Adia bluntly refused, stopping him from dialing the number as she held his hands. ¡°I¡¯m fine, a pain reliever will do¡± ¡°But..¡± Sebastian was cut short as the door sprang open, Monique walked in with a trolley, only to be shocked by their position. What is Sebastian doing close to her, and why are they holding hands? She couldn¡¯t help but squeal in horror. JEALOUSY ¡°Ma¡¯am your breakfast¡± she said trying to keep a calmposure. ¡°Get her medicines and inform Samantha to make her soup¡± ordered Sebastian. ¡°Ma¡¯am, is everything alright?¡± She asked pretending to care, but inwardly, she just wished for her to die. ¡°Am fine, it¡¯s just the usual morning sickness¡± ¡°I¡¯ll go get your medicine¡± said Monique, forcing herself to leave the room. She¡¯s so furious right now, she just couldn¡¯t understand why they were holding hands, their little gesture really irked her. ¡°She¡¯ll be back with the medicine, have your breakfast first¡±uttered Sebastian going back to his chair. ¡± I wouldn¡¯t be stressed out if you¡¯d just listen to me¡±ined Adia bitterly as Sebastian stared nkly at her. ¡± Aren¡¯t you ever tired of talking?¡± ¡± Do you know how relentless I am, I must get what I want¡± retorted Adia, right now, there was little or no strength with her, but she needed something from him, so she must get it. ¡± After you have breakfast, we¡¯ll talk¡± Sebastian finally obliged as Adia¡¯s face lit up in a smile. ¡± Really!!¡± She eximed happily. ¡± Yes, now eat¡± ¡± With pleasure¡± responded Adia happily, seems like he really cares about his baby, seeing he didn¡¯t hesitate to agree to talk to her, the moment she showed signs of morning sickness, so he doesn¡¯t care about her but the baby, sadly she didn¡¯t give a damn, though it hurts somewhere. Speaking of somewhere, Adia couldn¡¯t fathom how she felt, when she held his hands, he felt so warm and gentle, but someone gentle and Sebastian, didn¡¯t seem like what would go together. Adia also wondered, what cologne he used, he smelt so nice, pushing her thoughts aside, she shoved little pieces of bread into her mouth, as she has little or no appetite. Two minutester, Monique came in with her drugs which she took, before getting ready to speak to Sebastian. ¡°Can I begin?¡± Adia asked, trying to sound friendly, so he wouldn¡¯t change his mind. Sebastian spoke without looking up, but it didn¡¯t bother her, she¡¯s already long used to his nonchnt behaviors. ¡°Spill¡± Short and concise, this man clearly didn¡¯t want to speak with her, and she didn¡¯t want to be here either, she¡¯s only here because she needs his help. She¡¯s now getting used to his indifference, do it doesn¡¯t bother her much, ¡°I¡¯d like to work¡± Sebastian finally looked up at her, but with a hard re. ¡°You¡¯re my wife, you don¡¯t need to work¡± Adia was startled, her requests were denied, but she¡¯s not easily gonna sit back. ¡± And who made that rule, don¡¯t you think I need to have a say also in this contract marriage, like you stated earlier, what kind of rule is that?¡± Adia scoffed in unbelief. ¡± My rule, and it¡¯s meant to stay that way¡± He answered. Adia couldn¡¯t believe it, this is not the only thing she¡¯s asking of him, and he¡¯s already rejected her first request. Adia waspletely dumbstruck, she¡¯s not his wife, because she¡¯spletely invisible to him. ¡°We don¡¯t act like married couples, and the fact am going to be confined, was never stated in the contract¡± ¡°But the contract states you have to follow my rules¡± Adia found it so difficult to remain calm, she didn¡¯t have any ie whatsoever, why is he being so mean, ¡°Are you trying to kill me, your rules are killing me, I¡¯m tired, ¡± Adia yelled angrily, not able to contain her peaceful demeanor any longer. ¡°You just treat me like some trash, as if I am just a tool carrying your child, treat me respect for Christ sake, and stop being so heartless¡± Adia spat as Sebastian brows furrowed, we he thought on how to handle this issue, she¡¯s literally a pain in the neck. She talks too much. When they first met, she had this calm aura, but now she seems to be getting bolder every second. ¡°Adia it¡¯s for your own good¡± ¡°No it¡¯s not, if you don¡¯t answer me, I swear I¡¯ll do things my own way, I won¡¯t eat, in fact I¡¯ll stick to junk foods, I won¡¯t take my medicines, since the only thing you care about is the baby, I can as well hurt it, besides I¡¯ll leave after I deliver¡± Adia said regretting her words, she¡¯ll never hurt her child, she already loved the baby so much as of now, but she has no choice but to do this. ¡°Mind your words,¡± Sebastian warned as he frowned. ¡°Mind your ways¡± Adia retorted as Sebastian stared nkly at her, this woman dared to exchange words with him, she had no fear whatsoever. ¡°I repeat, mind your words¡± Sebastian despised what Adia just said, that¡¯s why he hates humans so much. Anger was visible in his eyes and expression, as his icy re stabbed Adia in the chest, like a sharp knife. ¡°Can¡¯t you just take the baby out of me, so I can leave this ce forever¡± Adia said, but immediately regretted her words, as the pen he was holding snapped into two, making her shudder. He looked really strong and he also has a bad temper, she didn¡¯t want him to start hitting her. She realized her words weren¡¯t helping at all, but only angered him the more. ¡°Ok am sorry, but please, let me work, Sebastian please¡± Adia begged almost on her knees. Sebastian looked at her, holding her gaze for a long time, before saying ¡°I¡¯ll think about it¡± ¡°Really¡± Adia squealed happily, but he ignored her, but she didn¡¯t care. ¡°Thanks, but I kind of have another favor to ask,¡± Adia began silently. ¡°Speak¡± he responded, wanting to get rid of her as soon as possible, he¡¯s already tired of her endless bbing. ¡± I want to go shopping today¡± she requested, hoping he will reply positively to her. ¡± No¡± came his Short reply, but Adia will never give up, she¡¯ll keep asking. ¡°Please I need a few things¡± ¡°You can write a list for the maids, they¡¯ll get you whatever you want¡± He said typing on hisptop noisily. ¡°At least if you can¡¯t be a romantic husband, just act like one tomorrow and get me a gift¡± she blurted out as Sebastian stopped typing, wondering what she meant.N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. ¡°Meaning?¡± ¡°Tomorrow¡¯s my birthday¡± Adia said happily as Sebastian stilled. LOST HIS MIND Sebastian¡¯s jaw worked, before he finally looked up, to meet Adia¡¯s gaze. The woman before him, was truly exasperating, every single word she uttered annoyed him to the fullest, even her actions irked him, but she continues to be oblivious to that fact, and continues been bent on leaving, now she¡¯s mentioning some sort of stupid birthday, a day that¡¯s unfortunately his worst day. ¡°Do what you want, be back before noon¡± Sebastian has no choice but to meet her demands, because he¡¯s not sure he canst another minute with her.C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org ¡± Seriously!¡± Adia eximed loudly, shocked that he epted so quickly. From the look of things, he looks as if, he¡¯s fed up with her presence. ¡± Thanks so much, but I¡¯ll need cash¡± Adia murmured thest words, but he heard her, loud and clear. ¡± Here¡± he said, tossing a card at her. ¡± Thanks¡± Adia collected the card feeling really grateful, that he obliged to her needs quickly. ¡± But you¡¯re gonna get me a gift tomorrow, at least be nice¡± ¡± Scram,¡± Sebastian said through gritted teeth, giving her a hard icy re. Adia was wise enough to note that it¡¯s the end of their conversation, she could already feel anger emanating from him. Having got what she wanted already, she dashed out of the room happily to freshen up. Sebastian sighed deeply immediately as she was out of the study, he couldn¡¯t help but wonder, why everything about her points to Aisling. The looks and all, even her birthday matches with Aisling death anniversary, which is strangely his birthday too. But Sebastian, didn¡¯t give a damn about birthdays, he has lived for six hundred years now, and birthdays were nothing to him. All that changed after he met Aisling, who felt celebration brings about love and helps one¡¯s bond grow stronger, that she made sure to celebrate his every year, but that only caused her death, so he hated July 27th 1996 with everything that he got. Another sigh escaped his lips, as he stood up angrily, thinking about Aisling, only spoiled his mood. Hitting a bell on the table, a maid came running in. ¡°Sir, do you need something?¡± She asked, seeing that her boss was not in a good mood. ¡°Come over¡± Sebastian instructed, making the maid blushed, as her mind started going ces. ¡°Yes sir¡± she replied in an almost erotic voice as she walked closer. Immediately she got closer, Sebastian grabbed her, as he sank his fangs on her neck, sucking her dry, till herst breath. Throwing her lifeless body, carelessly on the floor, his voice thundered angrily as he called for Mickelson. ¡°Mickelson!!¡± ¡°Sir¡± responded Mickelson, only to see a dead body on the floor, wondering who had made his boss angry, knowing how irrational Sebastian can act. ¡°Take care of this mess, ¡± and with that he stormed out of the study. ***** ¡°So you¡¯re trying to say he killed her?¡± Arion asked as Mickelson had reported to them about the death of the maid. ¡°Yes and master Sebastian, looked really pissed, he¡¯s in a really bad state¡± ¡°Well I can¡¯t question his actions, tomorrow¡¯s the day of the year afterall, make sure no one goes near his floor tomorrow, or heads will roll, thank goodness, he hasn¡¯t massacred a whole vige¡± Arion blurted out dryly, knowing how brutal Sebastian can be, his brother tends to act without thinking, and he doesn¡¯t give a damn about who gets hurts, and that act began since the day Aisling died. ¡± Okay sir, noted¡± ¡°And Adia?¡± Arion asked, ¡°I overheard from the maids that she¡¯s throwing a little party for master Sebastian,¡± reported Mickelson, as Arion chuckled loudly. ¡°She¡¯s only digging her grave, that¡¯s if Sebastian¡¯s gonna bury her, but you know what, make sure she goes on with her little party¡± instructed Arion, as Mickelson red at him, wondering if he was drunk, but vampires, don¡¯t easily get drunk, do they? Sebastian will only murder Adia, if she goes in there, he¡¯s too gruesome, especially on that very day, he literally cares about no one, except Aisling. ¡°He¡¯ll murder her¡± ¡°No he¡¯ll not, and that¡¯s what I want to find out about, a little experiment won¡¯t hurt, make sure you look for one way or the other to make Adia go to that room, I¡¯d love to check something¡± stated Arion as his lips pulled up in a mischievous smile. ¡°What if he kills her?¡± ¡°Nahh, don¡¯t worry Sebastian will not kill her, but mind you, be on standby, you never can tell¡± Arion said dryly, as Mickelson wondered if the male blonde in front of him had lost his mind. ¡± Make sure you don¡¯t get you, except you mind your head rolling on the floor¡± Arion added, as Mickelson nodded, before leaving. Mickelson knew fully well that he was venturing on a dangerous journey, but there¡¯s no harm in trying, especially if Adiaes out of that ce alive, that would mean there¡¯s a little bit of humanity left in his boss. ***** ¡°I Know a ce we can go to, alliance bongerie et cafeine is the perfect ce¡± suggested Monica as Adia smiled gratefully. ¡± You¡¯re sure I can get the best cake ingredients?¡± ¡± Yes, it¡¯s one of the best bakeries in all of Louisiana, they make delicious coffee and espressos, same with baked goods, you¡¯re gonna love it¡± ¡± Off we go then¡± ***** Adia and Monica walked into the bakery shop, as Adia marveled at the beauty and neatness, the aura it held spoke for it, and she knew it was no ordinary ce, it¡¯s obviously a ce for the rich. Looking around she caught sight of thest person, she caught sight of thest person she thought she woulde across one day on this mother earth, Lana Rhoades. ¡°Let¡¯s get done with, and leave this ce¡± she whispered to Monica, not wanting anything to do with her husband¡¯s crazy ex. ¡°Alright, but what¡¯s the problem?¡± Monica asked, following Adia¡¯s gaze, as her eyesnded on Lana. ¡°Do you know her?¡± Monica asked, having not met the woman before, with the way she was dressed, one could easily guess she¡¯s one of those spoiled heirs. ¡°Yap, and she¡¯s someone I¡¯d love to avoid, look away¡± Adia murmured, making way to leave that section, but she was toote, as Lana has already caught a glimpse of the people opposite her. ¡± Mother fucker¡± Adia cursed loudly, as their gaze met. IMPOSTER ¡°What the hell is that woman doing here?¡± Lana asked herself as her gaze met with Adia. Alliance bongerie et cafeine is a reputable store, and a puppet like Adia cannot afford it. Sebastian has taught her a very valuable lesson, for the strings she pulled at the party, he took away all her father¡¯s investors, and thepany is at the verge of falling all because of one woman. Lana was sure that everything that happened there, that day was just an act, she dated Sebastian for two weeks, and it was enough for her to know, the kind of person he is, he basically hates body contact, and the deed was done with him touching her only, he basically ties her up, whenever they were having sex, but she can¡¯tin, can she? As long as she enjoyed it. So Lana couldn¡¯t believe, he married Adia, he hates women, even if they dated, he never showed her affection, he doesn¡¯t even wee hugs, it was nothing but a distant rtionship. The only thing she benefited, was the good sex, and the name thates with dating the almighty Sebastian Hunters, she walked around with her shoulders high, and her father¡¯spany bloomed, now it¡¯s slowly dwindling all because Sebastian turned his back on them, resulting to him be their enemy, making the Rhoades cooperation gain more enemies, because no one wants to be on Sebastian¡¯s bad side, he¡¯ll basically destroy you. She does nothing now all because of a little witch, who she believes Sebastian paid to act as his wife, so he can drive away leeches. Ready to strike, she walked towards Adia¡¯s direction, but Adia was quick to leave with the woman beside her. ¡°I¡¯ll get you Adia, you can run but you can¡¯t hide¡± Lana¡¯s lips curved up, as an idea hit her, Adia¡¯s definitely not gonna pay for whatever she buys, because she¡¯ll never be able to afford it, Alliance bongerie et cafeine is for the rich only, and someone like Adia that earns peanuts can¡¯t afford to be here. All because Sebastian paid her to act like his wife, is making her grow wings. Making her way to the counter, she devised a n in her head, waiting patiently for Adia, so she could hack her n. ***** ¡°So ma¡¯am, what are we baking for you and sir¡¯s birthday?¡±Monica asked, as they stood at the other side of the store, that has Sessfully avoided the woman from earlier, and as far as Monica was concerned, she screamed nothing but trouble. ¡°Yea, I¡¯m thinking of making a dacquoise cake¡± Adia said as they walked through the shelves looking for the ingredients. ¡°I¡¯ll need almond and hazelnut meringue, ¡±C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org ¡± Sure let¡¯s get it¡± Monica responded as she walked through the shelves picking up ingredients. ¡± What¡¯s so special about this Alliance bongerie et cafeine?¡± Adia asked as the ingredients are just any normal ingredients sold anywhere. ¡± Their ingredients are made from the world¡¯s best farms, like the best productionpanies produces also, the delegates from all over the world also order cakes from here whenever a party is being thrown¡± ¡± Also, at the cafe behind this building, you¡¯ll find lots of important people there, because that¡¯s where they usuallye during work break on afternoons, they make the first espresso you know¡± Monica exined as Adia nodded. After grabbing a few things, they walked to the counter to pay for what they¡¯ve bought. Adia was about to take out the card from her purse to pay for what she purchased, when she heard a loud voice behind her. ¡°Imposter¡± Lana yelled as Monica turned to face her, but was stopped by Adia who decided to ignore her. ¡°Oh I am talking to you, she¡¯s a thief everyone¡± Lana screamed, gaining people¡¯s attention. But Adia still chose to ignore her, which only hurt Lana¡¯s ego the most. ¡°I¡¯m talking to you¡± she red, yanking Adia¡¯s elbow forcefully, as Adia squealed in pain. ¡± Ma¡¯ am are you okay,?¡± Monica asked in concern as she held Adia. ¡± Who the hell do you think you are?¡± She asked angrily, ring at Lana. ¡± So you¡¯re her partner in crime, so you¡¯re both thieves, security!¡± ¡± And what proof do you have, you think you cane here bickering rubbish¡± Though Adia is not surprised by Lana¡¯s words, she¡¯s really hurt, because she¡¯s not done anything to receive this kind of hatred. Though she¡¯s not angry, she¡¯s very sad to feel better, and not ruin the good mood, so she shrugs off her sadness, turning back to the clerk, so she can make her payments and leave this damn ce. ¡°I¡¯m not done talking¡± Lana yelled, grabbing Adia by her shoulders this time. The fact that Adia was ignoring her only made her more angry, as she felt like a fool. ¡°Hey who do you think you are?, To juste in here and dere me a thief, what proof do you have?, Get lost¡± Adia couldn¡¯t bear Lana¡¯s presence anymore, some women just act so despicable, ¡± Ma¡¯am I¡¯ll get Mickelson¡± Monica said, as soon as Lana heard the name Mickelson, she froze, she knew Mickelson to be Sebastian¡¯s guard, and the man at the party that night. Sebastian had insisted Mickelson apanied Adia, along with a driver and maid, Adia only took Monica along into the store, assuring Mickelson that she¡¯ll be fine, that¡¯s why he stayed behind, if not, he would probably be teaching Lana a lesson by now. Lana couldn¡¯t believe what she just heard, if Mickelson is around here somewhere, that means Adia is still with Sebastian, and Sebastian sent Mickelson to protect her, and did thedy beside her call her ma¡¯am? Lana couldn¡¯t help but ask, as realization struck her hard. ¡°Excuse me¡± Adia pushed a speechless Lana aside as she made way to pay for her stuff, everyone watching the little scene froze, the moment they saw the card she brought out, it was a centurion ck card, only a few people possessed that card. ¡°Ma¡¯am¡± The female clerk handed back the card and receipt to Adia, who stormed out of the store. Lana couldn¡¯t withhold the shame, she literally disgraced herself, she could already hear people talking about her, she grabbed her bag, walking out of the store in shame and anger, Sebastian never gave her the centurion ck card, but gave an imposter, a card that her father didn¡¯t possess. Away from the scene, at another part of the store, a beautifuldy, dressed in a tight gown, with high heels and heavy makeup watched the scene unfold in front of her, as her blue eyes, were both mixed with mischief, and anger, as the corner of her lips curved up, before being finally reced by anger, she pulled out a phone from her purse, dialing a number, as she left the store. LET鈥橲 HOOK UP ¡°Who the hell is that woman?¡± Monica asks immediately they left the store, her and Adia has grown some kind of friendship, so she¡¯s usually free around her. ¡°My husband¡¯s ex, I suppose¡± Adia sighed heavily as Monica¡¯s face wore a shocked expression. ¡°Ex!!¡± Monica eximed, eyes wide saucers. ¡°Wait, you don¡¯t know her?¡± ¡°Not at all, you¡¯re the first woman the master has brought into that house¡± Monica said as Adia gasped, Lana¡¯s and Sebastian¡¯s weren¡¯t that close after all, and she went around parading herself. ¡°Really!!?¡± ¡°Yea, there was a time we thought he was gay, he¡¯s so distant, you wouldn¡¯t even know he¡¯s in the house, no one dares get in his bad book¡± Monica exined, ¡± Alright, alright, enough of all these gossip, we have lots of work to do at home,¡± said Adia walking to the car, where Mickelson was already waiting for her. ***** Cora sat at a bar, as she drank to calm herself down, the bar buzzed in and out with life, as people were having the fun of their life. ¡°Another cup of bourbon please¡± she requested as the bar attendant brought the drink, gulping it in one go, she paid for her drink, making her way to leave the bar. ¡°Hey pretty¡± three men Came in front of her, immediately she got outside the bar, and from the look of things, they were all drunk. ¡°Piss off¡± she uttered, not in the mood. ¡°A little fun won¡¯t hurt¡±one of them who was on ck said walking close to cora, Cora scrunched her face in disgust, the moment he traced his fingers through her jawline. ¡°I said piss off¡± Cora yelled angrily, pushing him aside, with all her might. These lousy humans, who don¡¯t know their ce at all. ¡°Jake, are you alright?¡± The ck haired one asked, as his friend staggered back. ¡°I¡¯m fine Ben, I will not if I don¡¯t get this chick¡± he said licking his lips hungrily. ¡°Then get on with it, or should we get her for you¡± thest one added, receiving a hard re from Cora. Cora could perceive them from where she stood, and they all reek of alcohol, she literally feels like puking at the very spot. ¡°I¡¯ll kill you¡± threatened Cora, sending warning res at them. ¡°Love the spirit babe, what are you guys waiting for go get her?¡± Jake uttered, it seems as if he was the one calling the shots here. He stood elegantly, waiting for his prize, as his friends went to get Cora, but to his dismay, all he heard was the sound of breaking bones. ¡°Haaa¡± Ben screamed in pain, as Cora twisted his wrist, breaking his bones in the process. ¡°Ben, are you okay?¡± Thest man asked, aiming a punch at Cora, but he wasn¡¯t fast enough, because Cora caught his fist just in time, just with one squeeze, all his bones were already shattered. ¡°Fuck,¡± he eximed in pains, staggering back, wondering how a woman can possess this kind of strength. ¡°I¡¯ll kill youss¡± Jake swore angrily, seeing all of his friends in pain. ¡°Over your dead body¡± Cora spat, throwing Ben to the floor roughly, before walking to Jake, who was getting ready for a fight. ¡°Come here¡± she uttered, grabbing his cors, choking him,nding a punch on his face she said, ¡°This is for touching me with your filthy hands¡± andnding another punch, she said, ¡°Take this for wasting my precious time¡±nding another punch on his nose, this time, she added, ¡°And this, for all the innocent girls you¡¯ve molested¡± Cora grunted, throwing him to the ground, like trash, as he whimpered in pain, blood flowing from his nose, which sh obviously broke, ¡°Go to hell¡± she cursed leaving the scene immediately, she was already getting distracted by the presence of blood, she can just lose control and suck all of them dry, but she¡¯ll never sink her fangs on those trash, would she? Getting into her car, she turned on the ignition switch, but to her dismay, the car wouldn¡¯t start. ¡°Damn you all to hell¡± she yelled, cursing, those riffraffs, has made her day bad enough, and now this. Coming out of the car, she kicked her car door angrily, but that only worsened the issue, as the door broke, thanks to her vampire strength. Now she does not have only one problem now, but two. ¡°I must confess, you were a bad ass back there, something I love about you¡± someone said from behind, Cora immediately recognized the voice, grunting through gritted teeth, she turned to face him. ¡°Evans, seriously, as if my day has not bad being bad enough¡±N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. ¡± Hey baby¡± Evans smiled revealing his cute dimples, as his blue eyes sparkled under the moonlight, making him look more gorgeous. ¡°What are you doing here?¡± Cora asked, grabbing her stuff from her car. ¡°Came to cool off a bit, then saw that little show, don¡¯t worry I took care of those pest¡± ¡°What did you do?¡± Cora asked, turning to face him. ¡°Nothing much, I just tore them limb by limb, before feeding them to my dogs, oh, I had Rafael, take care of that¡± he exined with a wide grin stered on his handsome face, Rafael was his trusted guard. ¡°I didn¡¯t ask you to do that¡± ¡°Come on you don¡¯t need to, no one ever messes with what¡¯s mine¡± he uttered as a wicked grin ghosted his face, which was reced by his usual smile. ¡°I¡¯m not yours¡± Cora spat while walking away from him to find a taxi. Thest thing she wants right now is to Converse with anyone. ¡°Let¡¯s me drop you¡± ¡°Sorry to disappoint, but no thanks¡± ¡°I insist,¡± Evans said, grabbing her by her wrists.. ¡°What do you want?¡± Asked Cora, turning to face him. ¡°You,e on let¡¯s just get done with this, you want it also, don¡¯t you?¡± He asked as the corner of his lips curved up. Cora¡¯s jawline worked for a bit, as all thoughts ran through her head, it seems like Evans won this time around. She equally wanted him too, at least a good sex won¡¯t hurt, she needs to relieve herself anyway. ¡°Let¡¯s hook up¡± she finally relented as Evans smiled triumphantly. HOOKING UP Cora and Evans walked into his apartment in a haste kissing as if their lives depended on it. In a swift move, Evans leaped upstairs, with Cora wrapped up in his arms, as they rushed into the room, wrapped in each others arms. Cora yanked off his clothes quickly, staring at his taut muscles, that she has missed so much. She gulped down hungrily, unable to believe they¡¯ll both be in one bed having sex one day. Trying to elevate the mood, before any further things are done, Evans spoke, ¡°Do you want to y now, I¡¯ve already arranged everything?¡± Evans looked up at her smiling triumphantly, his eyes shining with excitement. ¡°Just do whatever you want¡± Cora replied, they were currently standing in his room, as he carried her, her legs around his waist. ¡°Well I was just joking, I seriously have to time to y now, maybe we can do that some other time¡± a rueful grin curved on his face as Cora breathed nervously. Dropping her down, Evans finally climbed up the bed, making him selffortable, he sat at the middle, leaning his head against the bed¡¯s headboard. He stared deeply at her as his sexy voice rang in her ears. ¡°Undress babe¡± Cora slowly undressed with seductively as Evans groaned loudly. ¡°You know you¡¯re tormenting me babe¡± Chuckling softly, Cora slowly walked towards the bed, climbing on it, her eyes locked on his. She knelt on the bed at his feet, opening it slowly, she tucked herself, in between his legs.C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org Cora inched a little closer to him, mming her lips on his. Their jiss started off as slow and gentle, as they kissed each other satisfactory, until Evans hands started to travel to Cora¡¯s intimate ces. When they finally pulled away, Evans looked like a beast that has been filled with nothing but savage hunger, Cora could already fell his rock hard length under her. Unable to wait any longer, they engaged in a deep kiss, as they nibbled with each others lips hungrily. Breaking away from the kiss, he said with a low voice, ¡°Look what you¡¯ve done Cora, my cock¡¯s already throbbing with anticipation,¡± grabbing her chin, he ran his fingers softly through her jawline, before peppering kisses all over her face, as he caressed her breasts. Kissing as if their lives depended on it, Evans, flipped her over, so that he was now the one on top of her. ¡°Spread your legs¡± he ordered, trying to get her riled up, hearing his voice only worsened the situation, as she felt her insides, flooding with lust. Obediently following his orders, Cora ced her hands on both sides of the bed spreading her legs apart, feeling his intense stare on her. ¡°That¡¯s my girl¡± he uttered, chuckling quietly and without any further warning, he moved his mouth down, preparing to eat her there, immediately Evans moved down, Cora shut her eyes closed, as she clenched her fist, in anticipation for what is about toe, she has missed this so much. His tongue slid inside her, as he sucked on her taut bud skillfully, ravishing it, ¡°Haa¡± Cora yelled, the moment he bit her there, something she missed so much, slow torture, it only turned her on the more.

Climbing up on the bed, he moved his hands to her ass, rubbing it softly, before pping her ass hard, so hard that the sound echoed in the room, along with her cry of pleasure.

He moved again, as Cora felt his balls brushed against her, making her blush hard, Without any warning, he mmed all the way home, causing her to tell so loud at the sudden invasion.

Rolling on the bed, her back hit Evans rock hard chest, as her face flushed Red,st night memories resurfacing on her head, Cora could feel her insides warming up, she quickly got up from the bed, remembering that today was Adia¡¯s birthday, and she¡¯s yet to get her a gift. ¡°Hey baby¡± Evans husky voice rang, as he wrapped his hands around her waist, ¡°I have to go¡± she said, searching around the room for her clothes. Cora looks round the room, which is in a total mess, Evans shirt is senn hanging on a window railing, while Cora¡¯s gown is crumbled on the floor, her pants and Bra, are on the opposite side of the room, and the bed looks as if it just survived a second world war. ¡°Where?, We just started with the fun¡± Evans smirked, his icy blue eyes looking so ethereal. ¡°Look just because we had sex, doesn¡¯t mean we are cool, got it?¡± Cora said, removing his hand from her waist, making way to get her clothes. ¡°Come on, Don¡¯t be so mean, you know¡± ¡°That¡¯s just the truth, Montenero, and don¡¯t forget, Addison¡¯s all alone, so I have to run along,¡± Cora said, walking into the bathroom to get a quick shower. Few momentster, she came out with a towel wrapped around her chest, while Evans remained in the same spot she left him. ¡± I¡¯ll drop you,¡± volunteered Evans. ¡± No thanks¡± Cora bluntly refused as she put on her clothes. ¡°I insist, not to forget, you don¡¯t have a car¡± Evans reminded, as Cora remembered she destroyed her carst night, but she can always board a taxi. ¡°I also have to get Adia¡¯s birthday gift¡± ¡°We¡¯ll do that together, and then we can visit her together, don¡¯t you think it¡¯s a good n, ¡± Evans raised a brow at her, as she finally agreed, ¡°Fine freshen up, and get dressed¡± ***** ¡± Well who do we have here¡± Ace sat d cheerfully as Rowan walked into his house. ¡± Surprised to see you this morning¡± ¡± Well I was about to leave town, besides a few days of vacation won¡¯t hurt, then I remembered I have to be here today with a certain someone, or else blood will flow¡± Rowan chimed in as he sat on a couch casually. ¡± Today¡¯s the girl¡¯s birthday,¡± he said as Ace nodded. ¡± Well I¡¯d advise you all go over there, and make this day special for her, you never can tell, this can be herst, and am sure you wouldn¡¯t want thest to be the worst¡± Arion said with sarcasm as he alighted the stairs, swirling a cup. ¡± Shut up Arion, don¡¯t be such a spoiler¡± ¡± You never can tell, I¡¯d say you all go over there, or we won¡¯t find her body to bury¡± ¡± I thought Sebastian always stays indoors, so how does her birthday have anything to do with him?¡± Rowan asked, as long as no one disturbs Sebastian¡¯s peace, everyone was safe, and he won¡¯t go berserk. Thest time anything like bloodshed happened years ago, when they newly moved to the human world. Sebastian dated one of the nobles¡¯ daughters then, for business reasons, but the poordy crossed the line when she took a precious ne that belonged to Aisling, the only part of her body that was found was her head, he fed the rest to his dogs. Sebastian was literally worst when Aisling died, cause of the bloodlust in him, he killed everyone that came in her s way, old, young, man or woman, no one dares to Cross his path, it was like there was an impending darkness nin him, like he was thrown Into an abyss of darkness, and there was no redeeming him, Aisling took his heart along with him when she died, and he has remained that way till date, only that he controlled his bloodlust, only because of the intervention of the elders, when they observed the number of deaths, were getting to high. ¡°Thatss is kind off restless, I¡¯m sure you don¡¯t want to pick up a head, and mind you, our dear brother killed a maid yesterday¡± Arion informed, but none of them looked shocked, Sebastian killing people was not a new thing to them, they¡¯re already used to that side of him. That darkness. ¡± Just warn her to steer clear, and I¡¯m sure Seb won¡¯t hurt her¡± stated Ace picking up a chess board. ¡± I have a better idea, why don¡¯t we go and party with her, I already prepared a gift, this can be herst birthday afterall, let¡¯s all for our dear Adia a favor and make it memorable¡± Arion said as a wicked grin shed his eyes, while Ace and Rowan exchanged nces. Arion is definitely up to no good, he¡¯s just like the second version of Seb as they both act irrational, they only difference between them was that Arion was like a silent devil that does his dealings low-key, while Sebastian had nothing to hide, but nheless they were both deadly vipers, vampires whose hearts were taken away from them and was reced with darkness. ¡°I hope you know what you¡¯re doing, and don¡¯t mess up with whatever you¡¯re up to, no one dies by Seb¡¯s hands today¡± Rowan stated. ¡°Well I don¡¯t mind a bloodshed,¡± Arion said, shrugging his shoulders. ¡°Me neither, but not today, ¡± Rowan¡¯s tone was extremely cold, as he stared deep into Arion¡¯s metallic gray orbs. BIRTHDAY DISASTER Adia¡¯s eyes sprang open as she got up from the bed, excitement bubbling up within her. Yesterday had been a very long day for her and the maids, as she was busy baking a birthday cake for today, which is her big day.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org.

Monica threw nces at her sister, that smile only meant something, she is up to no good. ¡°Happy birthday miss Adia¡± Monique gave Adia a gift box, her smile never dropping from her face. ¡°I wish you a long life and prosperity, and I hope this won¡¯t be yourst birthday¡± ¡°Thank you¡± Adia responded, suspiciously, her words still ringing in the ears, before she decided to shove it off. Monique hade to find out about something, a situation that was a win-win for her. Sebastian is a vampire, Adia is human, a pregnant human, and humans are not supposed to bear a vampire child, so if truly she¡¯s pregnant, Adia won¡¯tst till the ninth month. But if the pregnancy belongs to someone else, that¡¯s the man she¡¯s been secretly seeing, that means she¡¯ll live, and everyone wille to know about her true colors, but Monique can¡¯t really wait till then to know the oue of the pregnancy, she¡¯ll have to die and it¡¯s soon. ¡®Happy Last birthday Adia¡¯ she snickered walking backwards to the former position. ¡°What are we waiting for,e on guys let¡¯s sing a birthday song¡± Monica yelled as they all broke out in a song. ¡°Today is your birthday and we wish to let you know, that we loveeeee you..¡± ¡°Happy birthday to you, Happy birthday to you Happy birthday, Happy birthday, Happy birthday to you¡± They all sang happily, enjoying the joyful moment, unaware of the three pairs of eyes watching them from above. ¡°Do you think we shoulde down?¡± Ace asked, they¡¯ve been standing here for quite a while now, as they arrived the day before. ¡°No let them enjoy their little joyful moment, it can be thest for Adia, she deserves it, right?¡± Arion¡¯s lips curved up, as Ace gave out an Exasperated sigh. ¡± Could you stop being such a dick¡± ¡± I wished I could,¡± Arion replied, as Ace sneered at him. ¡± Am sorry, I should have strangle you with my umbilical cord in our mother¡¯s womb¡± ¡± You could have tried ¡± ¡± What do we do now, do you guys wanna join in the fun?¡± Rowan asked, speaking for the first time. ¡± I suggest we wait and see, how things turns out, I have a feeling today¡¯s gonna be such an interesting day¡± ¡± If you say so¡± ¡°What about Sebastian?¡± ¡± The old man prefers to be alone, I say we let him be¡± .. .. .. ¡± Ok ma¡¯am, make a wish ¡± Monica said, bringing the beautifully decorated Dacquoise cake, cing it on the table¡± Adia blew out the candle, making a wish. She hoped Cora and Addison were here, but they¡¯ve not arrived yet, but she knew inwardly that they¡¯re gonnae. Her wish was a very simple one, Addison is safe, sound and healthy, that she has nothing to worry about anymore, knowing she¡¯s safe. But there was something else she wanted now, and that¡¯s to live with her child and watch him grow, ording to the contract she¡¯ll leave and never be seen after delivering the baby and that¡¯s thest thing she¡¯ll want to happen to her, seeing Addison is faring well now, there¡¯s only one more thing that she wishes for. Making her wish, everyone made a merry sound, as they danced and pped at the top of their voices. After giving everybody, their share of the cake, Adia looked around pleased and satisfied, when someone spoke out, it was Mickelson, startling everyone, as that man hardly speaks, ¡°What about the master ma¡¯am, today¡¯s also his birthday, why don¡¯t you go and give him a share of the cake, I¡¯m sure he¡¯d be pleased¡± Mickelson really despised himself for whatever he¡¯s doing right now, and hated Arion more, he had no idea what that sly fox had in his mind, but he¡¯s sure it¡¯s not gonna be a good oue. Monique looked round the room silently, as the whole ces immediately turned silent like a graveyard, ¡®What the hell is wrong with him, us he drunk, but vampires hardly get drunk, don¡¯t they¡¯ was the thought that lingered in everyone¡¯s mind. Monique¡¯s head was still working on some calctions, when she saw the three older god damned handsome vampires upstairs, at a high ground, they were in a position that it would be hard for anyone to notice them, but her eagle eyes had already caught sight of them. She could see Arion¡¯s lips curving up, and immediately came to a conclusion that he¡¯s up to no good, he probably wants her dead too, she thought as an idea struck her. Anyone that goes to Sebastian¡¯s room on this very date, never makes it out alive, and everyone here is fully aware of it, but here the vampires are trying to get her there using Mickelson, because they want her dead. ¡°Yes miss Adia, go on¡± she cheered, trying to mount pressure on Adia. ¡°But¡­..¡± ¡°Come on ma¡¯am today¡¯s also sir¡¯s birthday, go on and make today memorable¡± she added smiling brightly. ¡¯cause it¡¯s gonna be your death memorial¡¯ she sneered inwardly, still cheering Adia up. ¡°I.. I¡­¡± Adia stuttered, not knowing what to say, she really wanted to celebrate Seb¡¯s birthday with him, but he¡¯s not even no where to be found, she¡¯s not seen him since thest time they spoke. ¡°Ohkay¡± she agreed, as Monique quickly cut a piece of cake on a te. ¡°Go have fun ma¡¯am¡± Adia smiled walking upstairs, as the rest of the servants watched speechless, she couldn¡¯t go up. Monica was about to speak out, but was stopped by Mickelson, who gave her a warning re. ¡°I think we should stop her¡± Ace said as Adia climbed up the stairs, he can never trust his brothers with a person¡¯s life, especially when they¡¯re angry. ¡°No let her be, but I¡¯ll suggest we hang around Incase of any emergency, right now, we have another problem¡± Arion said as they all moved their gaze to Monique¡¯s direction. ¡± It¡¯s always so easy to spot an enemy,¡± Acemented, shaking his head. ¡± She¡¯s up to something, I¡¯ll have Mickelson watch her, right now, let¡¯s go catch some fun¡± BIRTHDAY DISASTER2 ¡°What should we do about the maid?¡± Ace asked as they all moved their gaze to Monique.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. From the way she behaved, anyone would think she¡¯s definitely up to something, that¡¯s what Arion thought. Everyone present in this house knows fully that sending Adia into Sebastian¡¯s room is a death sentence for her. The only reason he sent Mickelson to pester her to do this, is to find out about something, something vital, he needs to find out about his brother. He never sent a maid to do it, not talk about someone that seemed close to Adia, the fact she joined Mickelson, is because she¡¯s up to no good. ¡°Come to think of it, isn¡¯t Mickelson a suspect too, I mean he started the whole thing, why are you facing the maid, and making another suspect watch her?¡± Rowan reasoned, throwing a questioning gaze at Arion, this little guy is up to something. ¡± Ok, ok, I put him up to it, I made him do it¡± he confessed. ¡°You what!!!¡± Ace shirked, eyes wide like saucers. ¡°Look it¡¯s just a little experiment, that¡¯s all¡± ¡°A little experiment, you put not just one person¡¯s life in danger, but two, Sebastian will ughter Mickelson too, and how dare Mickelson turn his back on Sebastian¡± Rowan growled loudly. ¡°And who¡¯s going to tell Sebastian, me or you, instead of arguing with me here, I¡¯d advise you follow Adia Incase anything goes wrong¡± Arion stated walking away. ¡± You know what it¡¯s right, let¡¯s ensure Adia¡¯s safe first, then we can deal with him and Mickelson¡± Ace said as they bolted away, lingering around Sebastian¡¯s floor, Adia has long gotten into the room since. **** Adia walked nervously, making her way to Sebastian¡¯s room, she could already feel her sweaty palms, shaky fingers, and a sheen of sweat was already formed on her forehead. But nheless they acted brave and still walked on, she couldn¡¯t help but feel a cold vibe about this, the fact Sebastian didn¡¯t evene out bothered and scared her. Knocking slightly on the door, she heard no sound, as she decided to knock again, hearing no response for the third time, she turned the knob and discovered it was opened. Making her way in, she discovered the room was dark as she could hardly see a thing, ¡°Sebastian¡± she called slightly panicked, trying to keep her cool, ever since that night, when she and Sebastian had sex, it has kind of left a trauma in her, as she¡¯s hell damn afraid of the dark, scared that someone can yank her from behind. ¡°Sebastian, Seb are you in here¡± she asked again, trying to control her stance, but just then, some died passed her, as she screamed in shock, dropping the tray on the floor, she made way out when the lights came on. ¡°Holy cow¡± she eximed loudly, was Sebastian pulling tricks on her, and what sped passed her, looking down, she added, ¡°What a mess¡± she had identally shattered the te, when she dropped it earlier, not only did she ruin the fine rug, she also ruined the cake on her te, picking up the broken pieces, one by one, she heard a deep voice that scared the whole hell out of her. ¡°What are you doing here?¡± ¡°Ouch¡± she whispered in pain, as a piece of ss got stuck into her finger, she tried effortlessly to bring it out, all to no avail, as it only worsened and widened the injury the more, as blood flowed from it. Remembering, she heard a question earlier, she sprang to her feet, to see a furious Sebastian few feets away from her, and when she says furious, like furious, his gray eyes zed, as if darkness was made into, as there was no shred of light, just pure darkness, that can send some straight to hell, that had no redemption, it felt as if he was boring Holes into her, that will kill her in seconds with his eyes, he looked too dangerous, and strangely more handsome than ever. ¡°Hi¡± Adia waved at him. ¡°Spill¡± Short and simple, the moment he spoke, it felt as if the angel of death just passed by, the Aura emanating from him at the very moment was very scary, even the way he spoke sent chills down Adia¡¯s spine. ¡°Well¡± she began, ignoring all the he pains, she¡¯s feeling right now, from her cut, it¡¯s hurting so much, but she¡¯ll just have to bear it all, and have Monica treat her when she leaves, was Sebastian so heartless that he didn¡¯t even noticed she was injured, was the question that ran through her head. ¡°Today¡¯s my birthday and I¡­.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t care, get out¡± Sebastian spat angrily, wondering who the hell, sent her here, once tomorrowes, he¡¯s gonna chop everyone¡¯s finger off, for ever letting Adia in, if it was any other person, that person, would already being lying dead, but here he¡¯s trying to control himself, for the sake of the child in her womb, and he can¡¯t assure even himself if that patience canst long, and as far as he can recall, Adia is stubborn as hell. ¡°Can¡¯t you just listen to me for once¡± Adiained, why is he so cold to her?, She can¡¯t remember ever hurting him, in fact she¡¯s the one that has always being hurt right from the first time, she was identally slept with, became pregnant, and was locked indoors for a month, she¡¯s supposed to be the one mad and giving attitudes, not him. ¡°Can¡¯t you just listen for once and get out?¡± Sebastian¡¯s voice thundered, as the whole room shook, as if an earthquake just took ce, making Adia wince in fright, he totally scared her. ¡°Can¡¯t you humans, just stop thinking about yourselves for once, of course not, that¡¯s how pathetic you all are, leave, before I kill you¡± he warned lowering his tone, totally silence engulfed the room, as Adia stood unmoving, the only sound heard, was the sound of blood, dripping from her finger. Sebastian¡¯s eyes moved, and his fangs ached at the sight of blood, luckily for this woman, he has a lot of tolerance, if not so he would have already sucked her dry, leaving not a single drop in her. ¡°Leave and treat your wound,¡± he added, but Adia stood, unmoving, as tears flowed from her eyes. ¡°Kill me¡± she muttered as Sebastian threw a gaze at her. ¡°I said kill me¡± she yelled, rushing at him, as she grabbed his shirt, hitting him, the smell of blood wafted through Sebastian¡¯s nose, his fangs were already threatening toe out. ¡°Kill me already, you talk about self centeredness, when you¡¯re the one that ruined me, that night destroyed me, Sebastian Hunter¡± Adia wailed, still throwing her fist at him, Blood was had already stained Seb¡¯s face, droplets, falling all over, as Adia kept hitting him. ¡°I warned you¡± he uttered, and the next minute, Adia felt his hands wrapped around her neck, as he mmed her back on the wall. ¡°Have a good night¡¯s rest, Adia peters¡± he murmured, mming her head on the wall. BLOODY ¡°Jesus!! Sebastian you killed her!!¡± Ace yelled, rushing to Adia, whoid lifeless on the floor, blood flowing from her head, and hands. ¡°Is she breathing?¡± Rowan asked leaning beside her body. ¡°Call Evans this moment, I can still feel a purse¡± Rowan yelled, as Arion quickly grabbed his phone, as he dialed Evans number. ¡°Get me a cloth, let¡¯s stop the bleeding, my Fang¡¯s already threatening toe out¡± Ace muttered, what was his stupid brother thinking, this house is Stark full of vampires, some that¡¯s even derived of blood, abd he still did this, he¡¯s even finding a hard time controlling his self. Rowan grabbed a cloth from, Sebastian¡¯s closet, throwing it to Ace, who wrapped it around her head, as Arion came forward. ¡°What did Evans say?¡± ¡°Luckily he¡¯s nearby, he¡¯ll be here in ten minutes¡± Arion responded, as Ace picked Adia up from the bed, cing her on the bed, meanwhile Sebastian stood at a corner watching the whole scene unfold. ¡°Man, what were you thinking?¡± Rowan asked, walking up the him, he¡¯s currently covered in blood and it¡¯s going to take God¡¯s grace, to restraint himself, thankfully they¡¯re twilight vampires, they have more experience in dealing with blood. ¡°Mickelson!!!¡± Sebastian yelled, ignoring Rowan¡¯s question. ¡°Sir¡± Mickelson responded, running in, only to be greeted by the stench of blood, he¡¯s not like the older vampires in here, who has more tolerance, he¡¯ll lose his Cool anytime soon. He suddenly felt bad, on seeing Adia, she¡¯s too kind to deserve this kind of treatment, and he dragged her into this. ¡°Gather all the servants in this house now, from old young, male to female, make sure no one is left out, gather them in my underground basement¡± Sebastian ordered, as Mickelson flinched, no one goes in there andes out alive. ¡°Ok sir¡± he made his way to quickly leave, the stench of blood was everywhere. ¡± And you¡¯re not excluded¡± Sebastian added. ¡± What are you gonna do to them?¡± Ace asked, after making sure Adia is in a good condition, that can make herst, till Evans arrive. ¡± None of your business, make sure she¡¯s okay¡± Sebastian said, leaving the room. ¡± When you almost killed her, she¡¯s pregnant Sebastian, not just pregnant, she¡¯s suffering, we all know this pregnancy is a death sentence for her, at least allow her enjoy herst days, what if she dies, remember Evans said she¡¯s more vulnerable at this state, Damn what¡¯s wrong with you? That¡¯s why I¡¯ve always being against hering here, cause vampires will bring her nothing but pain¡± Arion stated angrily, this wasn¡¯t what he expected at all, he had expected Sebastian to know better. ¡°We¡¯ll talk about thister¡± Sebastian responded walking out. ***** ¡°Aunt I can wait to see, Adia, I got her the best gift ever¡± Addison said happily, as Cora smiled, they were all currently on a trip to see Adia, Evans insisted oning along, so here they are, they¡¯ve all gotten gifts for her. ¡± Sure Addison, I¡¯m sure she¡¯s gonna love it¡± Cora responded.C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org ¡± I promise you the best gift tonight, only if you agree toe over¡± Evans smiled whispering to her, as Cora red at him. ¡°Can¡¯t you act without acting shameless for once?¡± ¡°I wish I could but¡­¡± Evans stopped speaking, as his phone rang out, ¡± One sec¡± Cora could hear the person from the other side, thanks to her hearing abilities, and knows something¡¯s not right. ¡± I¡¯m on my way, be there in ten minutes, try and stop the bleeding and make sure to maintain her pulse¡± Evans instructed, ending the call, as he elerated the speed of his car. ¡± Is everything alright?¡± Cora asked. ¡± Not at all,¡± ¡± What¡¯s the problem?¡± She asked as Evans moved his gaze to Addison, and Cora knew immediately that Addison¡¯s not supposed to find out about what happened. ¡°Where are we going now?¡±.. ¡°Sebastian¡¯s ce¡± came the Curt reply, and Cora immediately knew something was off, Evans talked about bleeding and pulse, and Adia¡¯s the only human living there, which only meant, she¡¯s in trouble. .. ¡­ .. A strong smell of blood filled the air, all of Sebastian¡¯s servants were all gathered there, some of them missing their fingers. ¡°Who told Adia toe in?¡± He asked in a menacing tone as they all shivered in fright. ¡°I did sir¡± Mickelson answered, as Sebastian shook his head. ¡°I¡¯d love some enlightenment on why you did that?¡± He asked motioning the next person, Monica who ced her hands down in fright, but thankfully to being a vampire, they can regenerate, but being in the lower rank it¡¯ll take months, especially when they¡¯re deprived of human blood. Raising up the knife, Sebastiannded it on her hands, chopping three off, the others were just two, but why her? ¡°And that¡¯s for not stopping her from going further¡± Sebastian said , blood sprawled all over. ¡°I tried stopping her but¡­¡­¡± Monica stopped as her eyes moved to Monique. ¡°Come forward¡± he motioned to Monique who moved forward. ¡± What hand do you have in this?¡± ¡°I only told miss Adia to go, I¡¯m sorry sir, please spare me?¡± Monique pleaded, as she cursed at Adia, if only she could just die from the attack. ¡°Both hands¡± Sebastian instructed, and the next minute, all of Monique¡¯s fingers were gone, as she screamed in pain. ¡°And that¡¯s for supporting her, Mickelsone with me, I have other punishments for you¡± Sebastian said picking up a handkerchief from his pocket cleaning his bloodied hands, as he left the ce along with Mickelson. .. . .. ¡°Evans, thank goodness you¡¯re here, she¡¯s burning up¡± Ace informed as Evans rushed in. ¡± Move aside¡± he said checking her pulse, she was looking so pale at the very much moment, after fixing the IV, he dressed her wounds and put a new dressing. ¡°Who the hell did this?¡± Cora asked angrily, her friend looks so pale, she can¡¯t help but feel sorry for her. ¡± It¡¯s Sebastian right?, That monster¡± she uttered through gritted teeth, ¡± Where is he?¡± She asked, she really wants to punch that handsome face of his, his heart has only gotten more hollow over these years. ¡± What are you gonna do? Uhhh? Comfort him? You¡¯ll lose your life as well, so keep your ass here and watch over her little sister, I¡¯ll deal with Sebastian myself¡± Arion said as he leaped away. Cora sighed deeply, Arion was right, she¡¯ll only loose her life if she goes close to him, and Evans wouldn¡¯t even be able to rescue her, that man is nothing but a heartless beast, who no one¡¯s dares go against, she don¡¯t even think Arion will be able to confront him, it¡¯ll only turn to a bloody fight. ONLY FOOLS STICK TO ME Adia groaned loudly, feeling a sharp pain on her head, she managed to open her eyes slowly, scanning the room, with a blurry vision. Everything that happened shed in he head, as she whimpered, the man she called her husband smashed her head on the wall on her birthday. ¡°Miss Adia you¡¯re awake¡± Monica said worriedly rushing to Adia. ¡°Monica¡± Adia muttered with a hoarse voice as her throat itched. ¡°Have some water¡± Monica offered, picking up a jug from the bed side as she filled up a cup with water. ¡°How long have i being out?¡± Adus asked, she could feel the bandage wrapped around her forehead, which hurts her alot. ¡°For two days now, thank God you¡¯re fine now, should I call the master, I should let him know you¡¯re awake¡± Monica said as she got ready to scramble away, but she was held back by Adia, who stopped her. ¡°No, don¡¯t¡± thest thing Adia wanted was to see the face of that man, she just couldn¡¯t get why someone could be so brutal, she couldn¡¯t believe he would do that, considering the fact she was pregnant. ¡°He told me¡­¡± ¡°Don¡¯t, am not ready to face anyone yet¡± Adia added, as Monica helped her to sit up on the bed. ¡°Is there anything you want?¡± Monica asked, she really felt bad for Adia, she knew she clearly didn¡¯t deserve this kind of life, mingling with vampires, being deceived and all. Getting mixed with vampires brought nothing but troubles to humans, vampires were vile creatures, monsters of the night, who depended on blood to survive, especially the twilight vampires, the Creators of all other vampires, they¡¯re the worst creatures ever, heartless and inconsiderate, and Adia happens to be pregnant for one, it¡¯s inevitable for her to survive. ¡°I just need a cold shower, I need to calm my head down¡± ¡± Your wounds are not healed yet, bute on I¡¯ll help you out¡± Monica offered, as she led her to the bathroom. ¡± What happened to your hands?¡± Adia asked, noticing the Bandage wrapped around, Monica¡¯s left hands. Monica quickly retracted her hands from Adia should, stuttering on the right words to say. What should she tell her, your husband chopped off the fingers of all his staffs, for putting you in danger. ¡°Just a little ident¡± she Managed to say, having no valid story to give. ¡°Are you sure you¡¯re fine, I can take care if myself, you have some rest¡± ¡°No no, am perfectly, alright, you just recovered, do you need all the care you can get, ¡± Monica stated, as she continued with washing Adia up. ¡°Have some rest now, I¡¯ll go make some soup for you¡± Monica said tucking Adia in bed, ¡°I¡¯m okay, you can¡¯t just keep treating me like a child¡± Adia pouted, pushing the duvet off her chest, down to her waist. ¡°That¡¯s your husband¡¯s orders, to make sure you¡¯re fine,¡± Adia scoffed, immediately she heard Monica¡¯s words, someone that almost killed her. ¡°I¡¯lle back¡­.¡± Monica stopped in her tracks as if sensing someone¡¯s presence, true to her suspicion, when she turned, Sebastian was there standing at the door post. ¡°Sir¡± she stammered, getting up on her feet, as quickly as she could with her head bowed down, while Adia frowned her face, what the hell is he doing here?, She asked. ¡°Leave us¡± cane Sebastian consise words, as Monica squired out of the room. Sebastian locked the door behind him, as he walked into the room, while Adia buried herself under the duvet not wanting to speak with him. ¡°Let¡¯s talk¡± he began, sitting at the bridge of the bed. ¡°I don¡¯t want to speak to you, or even see your face, ¡± Adia uttered softly from under the bed, but he heard her quite well. ¡± What happened before was not meant to happen¡± he said softly. ¡± Easy for you to say, that doesn¡¯t change the fact that you¡¯re a monster¡± Adia spat shifting under the duvet, yo make herselffortable. ¡°You can call me whatever you want, let me mahe it up to you¡± Sebastian said softly, he couldn¡¯t believe he was saying this, he never makes things up to people, it¡¯s either they go to hell for all he cares, but here, this silly human, is proving stubbornness right in front of him. ¡°There¡¯s nothing you can do, the damage has already been done¡± ¡± Really??¡± He asked as his Lips pulled up with a smile that ghosted his face. ¡± Leave I don¡¯t want to see you¡± Adia muttered softly. ¡± No one would want to see me¡± hemented shaking his head meaningfully like an old man full of wisdom.N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. Everyone who knew of his true nature dreaded him like a gue, it¡¯s only foools that stick to him, and that¡¯s the silly female humans, with their useless obsessions. ¡°Thank God you know, you¡¯re a monster¡± ¡°I didn¡¯t expect less, now you should know that you¡¯re meant to stay far away from me Adia¡± He said thest words softly, nothing good everes out from being with vampires, right now, they couldn¡¯t even guarantee her life for the next seven months, she literally has less than seven months to live. ¡°I¡¯ll allow you work, but only on a few conditions¡± he began, Adia immediately straightened up herself. ¡°You¡¯ll work in mypany, under me, in my office, also you¡¯ll be allowed to leave, only with a reasonable excuse, with a curfew time of course¡± he stated, as Adia browsed everything in her head, ¡°Really!!¡± She eximed loudly, removing the duvet cover from her head, as her gaze met Sebastian¡¯s handsome face. ¡°Yes¡± he replied. ¡°How do I know if you¡¯re saying the truth, and why work under you¡± she pouted, recing the smile on her face with a frown. ¡± I don¡¯t go back on my words, and you¡¯re working under me cause that¡¯s the best option, you¡¯re pregnant¡± he exined, cursing under his breath, he never exins himself to anyone. ¡± You almost killed me¡± she uttered, throwing daggers at him. ¡°I apologize for that, and I¡¯ll make it up to you¡± he said, this woman is just making fo lots of things he¡¯s never done before, he never apologizes to anyone. ¡°Ok then, but know this, Sebastian Hunters, you owe me a favor, and you¡¯ll repay for it someday, I forgive you¡± ¡°You¡¯ll begin working once you¡¯re fully recovered, I guess am done here¡± Sebastian said making his way to leave, but was stopped by Adia. ¡°Wait¡± she said holding him by his forearm, ¡°What is it that you¡­.¡± Sebastian was interuptted by a hug from Adia, who whispered in his ears softly, ¡°I promise you this today Sebastian Hunters, I Adia Hunters, yourwfully wedded wife will bring out the good in you, and show you that you¡¯re not incapable of loving someone¡± she whispered in his ears, loud enough for him to hear, as Sebastian stilled by her words. ***** Hello my lovely readers, hope you¡¯re enjoying the novel so far.

She put on a skirt and blouse with matching heels and a purse, arranged her hair before heading downstairs. Taking a look on her phone, she saw loads of unread messages from Logan and lots of missed calls. She was thankful enough that Sebastian didn¡¯t catch a glimpse of it, or it would have been the beginning of another problem for her. ¡® hey, how are you?¡¯ ¡® we have a second date remember ( smiley face emoji)¡¯ ¡® let¡¯s meet¡¯ ¡® why are you not replying to my messages?¡¯ ¡® Are you alright Adia, you¡¯re not picking my calls are returning them either, call me¡¯ ¡®is everything alright over there¡¯ ¡® call me¡¯ Adia read aloud, these was all the messages, he left hanging for her. ¡® sorry I wasn¡¯t able to reply or call back, had lots of things to take care of, but I¡¯m perfectly okay, I¡¯ll call youter¡¯ she texted back, tucking her phone into her purse, alighting from the stairs.

They all bowed their head in respect a she took a seat down, ¡°Good morning¡± she waved at Sebastian, who just nodded slowly, while a mayd served her breakfast.

Adia shifted ufortably, as Sebastian removed his seat belt, the ride has being a hectic and a peaceful one at the same time. A peaceful one for Sebastian, who didn¡¯t even spare a nce at her the whole time and just focused on hisptop, doing some kind of business shit for all she cared. While for Adia, it was a hectic and disturbing one, she had a hard time adjusting to his presence, lie who wouldn¡¯t feel that way, when you¡¯re sitting beside and extremely handsome and cold man, whose jawline, anyone would die for. Adia could feel her insides, warming up, from whatever, with a kind of pleasurable feeling at the depths of her stomach, a feeling she¡¯d hate to admit that she felt for the monster she calls a husband. The words she whispered to him, still lingered on her mind, she¡¯s been unable to get it off her head, with the darkest looming over him, one would think there was no redeeming him, he¡¯s as good as unrepairable with his hollow heart.This content is ? N?velDrama.Org. But deep down, Adia felt this need to bring out the good in him, though it sounded impossible, there¡¯s no harm in trying. He undid his seatbelt making his way to leave the car, as Adia cleared her throat trying to gain his attention. ¡°Is there anything you need?¡± He asked, his hands still on the car door. ¡°What department am I working under, you didn¡¯t even ask for my level of experience?¡± She asked, as he looked at him briefly. ¡°I told you the other day, that you¡¯ll be in my office, no more questions¡± he snapped leaving the car, as a group of guards rushed to wee him. Adia took in long deep breaths before following after Sebastian, she saw some men around him near him, who were obviously guards, as she walked closer to Sebastian. The body guards present noticed a womaning out of their boss¡¯s car, which was a very big surprise to them. The sight before them was very rare or rather has never happened before, the woman got to where their boss is, standing close to him as she asked a question, surprising them the more, this has never happened before, the Sebastian they knew was very distant even to the few women he dated, the only person he held is was Rowan, Evans Montenero and a few people. ¡°Sebastian, you can¡¯t be serious, ¡± Adiained bitterly as she got to where he stood, thest time he told her she¡¯d be working with him, she didn¡¯t digest all he said, and definitely skipped that part about working with him. Like is he fucking serious, the pressure will only get worser, how will she spend up to seven hours of the day in the same ce with Sebastian, his presence is really intimidating. ¡°We¡¯ll talk inside¡± he responded, holding her palms, as he locked his fingers with hers, startling Adia. She didn¡¯t know if he was trying to out up a good names with his employees, because the Sebastian she knew didn¡¯t want anything to do with her, why is he holding hands with her now. These Rich people can be really persky at time, she thought loudly rolling her eyes. ¡°Just give me a answer¡± Adia whispered to him, tugging his arms, as they stopped in their tracks along with the dumbstruck body guards behind them, they were obviously dumb struck by whatever is unfolding in front of them, and was curious about the strange woman with their cold boss. ¡°We¡¯ll talk inside, don¡¯t start making a sin on your first day¡± ¡°But¡­¡± Adia stopped talking the moment Sebastian leaned closer to her, as he whispered to her ear, his cool breath fanning her face, his perfect smell of cologne lingering all over her nose. ¡± You know I don¡¯t mind throwing back into that house, and lock you in there forever, now do yourself a favor and shut the fuck up, you of all people should know how nasty I can be whenever I get angry¡± He concluded with a smirk, leaning backwards, as he ced his hands on her first botton, buttoning it up. ¡°Your button was undone, you know how jealous and dangerous I get when others see you?¡± He said staring intensely at Adia straight in the eyes. ¡± I¡­¡­I¡± Adia stuttered swallowing deep. ¡°Save your breath for tonight, hmmm¡± He uttered to her as her face turned scarlet red, at his statement. ¡°you¡­. you¡­.¡± She stammered again, ¡°We¡¯ll talkter hmm¡± he added as she nodded slowly, speechless. ¡°That¡¯s my girl¡± hemented, grabbing her by her waist, pushing her closer to him, as they walked into thepany building. BLOODY HOW ¡°I can¡¯t breathe¡± Adia choked out, ¡± Could you at least loosen me up a bit¡± she added, thankfully Sebastian obliged, as he loosened his grip on her waist. ¡°Thank you¡± Adia muttered, feeling the peering eyes of people on her, she wasn¡¯t surprised by this, knowing Sebastian and his good looks, most of his female employees will definitely have a crush on him, even the males that are gays. ¡°Your workers like to stare a lot, why?¡± She asked in hushed tones, as they headed to the elevator. ¡°Cause I¡¯m handsome¡± he smirked. ¡°My feet, look they¡¯re obviously blind¡± Adia scoffed loudly. ¡°Not my problem, or you think I don¡¯t notice the way you spare nces at me¡± ¡°I was just curious that¡¯s all¡± ¡°Curious about what?¡± Sebastian asked, his right brow raised up. ¡°How you could be so wicked¡± ¡°I¡¯m sure there¡¯s another word for wicked, please you can that, wicked sounds dumb¡± Sebastian responded. ¡± Oh please, I can¡¯t believe i¡¯m gonna be spending up the seven hours of my time with you in the same office¡± Adiained bitterly, stating the obvious. ¡± You can get busy with something or better still take a nap ¡± he answered as they both made their way into the elevator. All the employees who witnessed the little show that just happened this morning was totally dumbfounded. Not only did their cold boss walk in with a woman, the fact that he held her raised up a state of confusion. Though they¡¯re aware of his password dating life, they knew it was nothing like this, Sebastian never really gave a damn to the past women, his rtionships neversted, and he¡¯s never held a woman at such close proximity, not one they¡¯ve seen or heard of. And also, he took her into his elevator, only him, Rowan and a few people are allowed to get into that elevator, not even his ex girlfriends, and usually take the usual elevator meant for everyone, but now in their presence he took a woman in. Curiosity was bubbling up within them, especially the Ladies, who held one obsession or the other, they were all curious about the identify of that mysterious woman, who¡¯s Managed to tame the heart of their cold boss, that¡¯s if something like that ever happened in the first ce, Maybe she might be someone special, some thought, while some couldn¡¯t wait to get their hands on Adia and tear her apart. ***** ¡°Laura will be the one training you, she¡¯ll help you adapt quickly, and you¡¯ll help her around here¡± Sebastian informed as Adia nodded her head slowly as she waved at Laura, who looked as if a huge burden had been taken off her shoulders. ¡°I have to go now, I¡¯ll be leaving you with Laura, you cane into my office when you¡¯re ready¡± he added Bolting away from the scene. ¡°Here, have this, it contains all thepany¡¯s rules, I don¡¯t know if you¡¯ll need it, since you¡¯re, you know¡± Laura chuckled sheepishly, as Adia collected the file from her. ¡°Please I don¡¯t want things to be awkward between us because of that, and the fact that no one around knows I¡¯m married to Sebastian is fine by me¡± Adia said going through the files. ¡± I must confess you guys made quite a scene earlier, I mean everyone¡¯s talking about the mysterious woman¡± ¡± Yeah, I Know but Sebastian warned me clearly not to leave this floor and from the look of things, I guess he¡¯s very strict around here¡± Adia uttered, reading the rules was enough for her to know that shit was not tolerated here, people get sacks over any little mistake. ¡± You can say that again, and you¡¯re lucky the boss kept you on his floor, of course he would cause you¡¯re his wife, everyone fears him and no onees up here except on important matters¡¯ ¡® Laura whispered. ¡± Then how do you cope being a secretary to the scary boss¡± Adia mimicked as they bothughed it off. ¡°Trust me, working with Sebastian is one of the best things that has happened to me, no strings attached though, but he picked me up from the streets and here I am today¡± Laura said, reminiscing on those days, the worst period of her life, until Sebastian came around. ¡°Then I¡¯ll say you¡¯re very lucky then¡± ¡°Very¡± Laura deadpanned. ¡± I¡¯ll be back in a jiffy, I need to speak with the boss, ¡± Adia said in sarcasm as they both giggled loudly. Walking towards Sebastian¡¯s office, Adia took a look around it, this is not the first time that she has visited this ce, she remembersing here when Addison was sick to ept his proposal. Back then she was petite, calm and innocent, that was four months ago, now she¡¯s changed so much that even she can¡¯t exin, she got into the spacious office and saw Sebastian already seated there working, he looked so good looking. Sitting on a chair opposite his, Adia took her time to ess the office well this time, it was extremelyrge and spacious, shelves were aligning the walls of the office with books neatly arranged on it. Most of the books on the shelves didn¡¯t look work rted, instead they looked kind of ancient. ¡°I didn¡¯t know you loved reading a lot¡± Adiamented, as Sebastian¡¯s gaze met hers. ¡°What do you want?¡± He asked as Adia puffed air out from her lungs loudly. ¡°Another favor¡± she answered. ¡°As always, speak¡± ¡°I want to stay with Laura¡± she began as Sebastian¡¯s gaze never left hers, he kept staring intently at her. ¡°I mean I prefer to sit with her, that way I can learn more about the things around, I can¡¯t do that in here¡± she said, his presence woy just be too overbearing, and concentration would be a major problem for her.C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org ¡°Do what you want¡± he snapped, thest thing on his mind now is argue with him, at least not here. ¡°Ok thanks, also we haven¡¯t talked about my pay¡± ¡°You¡¯ll be paid three million dors monthly¡± he informed wondering what she even needed money for, but it¡¯ll be best if she saves up, because he¡¯s gonna let her go once she survives the pregnancy. ¡± Thanks!!¡± Adia eximed happily, Three million dors is such a huge sum of money to her, more than enough to take care of Addison, if she¡¯ll be receiving that monthly. ¡± I wanted to borrow some books also¡± ¡± We have a study at home, you can do that there¡± he responded. ¡± Ok then, I¡¯ll probably scoot away now¡± ¡± Definitely, and Also, mind the way you gossip about the boss, I have ears everywhere¡± he said with the same sarcasm that Adia used to speak to Laura as Adia froze, What bloody way did he use to hear their conversation, cause he obviously did? Adia couldn¡¯t help but ask herself in horror. CONTRACT Adia sat beside Laura, who read out a few basics to her about thepany. ¡°Don¡¯t worry I¡¯m gonna make sure you enjoy your stay here¡± Laura said to her as Adia giggled. ¡°Actually when¡¯s yourpany¡¯s lunch break?¡± She asked. ¡°We have the first break by twelve and the other by two¡± Laura answered ¡°Why are you asking?¡± ¡°Well I was nning to eat outside¡± Adia replied as Laura nodded, actually Adia had a nned carefullyid out on her mind, she still haven¡¯t forgotten the words she said to Sebastian and to fulfill that, a lot of things had to be done, because Sebastian seemed imprable. So go be as to get into that strong shield of his, she has carefullyid out a master n.Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. ¡°Does Sebastian eat out?¡± Adia asked, from her observation, since she¡¯s been living with him for three months and two weeks now, she¡¯s never seen him eating anything fooo, asides from drinking coffee. ¡°Not at all, he prefers eating in his office, he loves his privacy you know¡± Laura chuckled as sheid out a few files. ¡± Who gets him his lunch?¡± ¡± I usually do that¡± ¡± Then I¡¯ll save you the stress today, leave that to me¡± Adia said as Laura nodded slowly, ¡± Thanks, you¡¯re a lifesaver¡± Laura shed a smile at Adia who returned to what she was busy with. Laura couldn¡¯t help but keep shaking her head, Sebastian hates human food, as long as she can remember he doesn¡¯t take them. She was just eighteen when she met him and he turned her, now she has being working for him, for ten years now, and these past ten years had being the best years for a person who suffered from trauma like her. Not all vampires enjoy eating human food, as it does nothing or whatsoever to them, it supplements doesn¡¯t add any advantage to vampires as the only thing they need is blood to live, though it¡¯s not all vampires that live with human blood as a supplement, especially the tuned vampires. ¡°I¡¯ll get going now¡± Adia said getting up from the chair as she made her way to strode into Sebastian¡¯s office, since he insisted she stayed in there. Adia walked in, closing the door behind her, as she took her seat, he was busy with work and didn¡¯t even spare a nce at her as usual. ¡°Let¡¯s go out for lunch¡± she began ¡°Busy¡± came the short and concise reply from him. ¡°I insist¡± ¡°Busy¡± he said again, making Adia shoot deadly res at him. ¡°You know you owe me a favor¡± Adia added. ¡°Hmm¡± he replied silently, he just wished she had remained with Laura. ¡°You have to fulfill that favor you know, nevermind, just cane up with something¡± Adia said, she¡¯s being working on how to gain his attention and spend more time with hm, at least to melt his Cold heart, but she only came up with one idea. ¡°What¡¯s that?¡± He asked, he already knew where all this was driving to, he immediately regretted promising her that, but he couldn¡¯t go back in his words could he, he never breaks his promises. ¡°Here¡± she said handing a paper to him, immediately she got to his table. ¡°What the bloody hell is this?¡± Sebastian asked scanning his eyes through tge paper, as his face scrunched up in disgust. ¡°A contract¡± ¡°What fucking contract?¡± He asked angrily, through gritted teeth. ¡°A contract that states that party A must do whatever party B says for a week¡± she stated smiling triumphantly. ¡°Meaning?¡± He asked with eyebrows raised up. ¡°Dummy, you¡¯re gonna do whatever I say, for a month starting now, as you¡¯re gonna sign this to seal the contract¡± she exined, as Sebastian pupils shrank the moment she called him a dummy, how dare her? Adia waited patiently for him to raise his head back up, she knew it was in his power to reject her offer, seeing he can do whatever he wants, but he¡¯ll be nothing but a snitch and coward yo do that, and it¡¯ll will be bad if he refuses to agree with her terms. Adia prayed silently awaiting for his approval, luckily for her he grabbed a pen immediately he raised his head, scribbling on the space meant for signing, before throwing the paper at Adia, who cared less. ¡°Scram¡± he muttered, Adia could sense his anger from where she stood but it affected her less, she already got what she wanted. ¡°You didn¡¯t read it though¡± she said wanting to get on his nerves only to receive a hard re from him. ¡± Our deal starts today¡± she began as he looked up at her with a hard look yet again. ¡°I basically told you to read the terms first¡± she muttered innocently, as he gave out a frustrated grin, truly he was tired of her nonstop talking. ¡°What do you want?¡± ¡°Let¡¯s go out for lunch¡± Adia requested, after a long reign of silence, he responded, ¡°thirty minutes¡± he said hastily, standing up from his chair, hisrge body towering above Adia who felt intimidated by his presence. ¡°I¡¯ll grab my purse¡± she said rushing to her chair, as she grabbed her purse. ***** The door sprang open as Laura turned to see Sebastian and Adiaing out from the office. ¡°Do you need anything sir?¡± She asked standing up respectably. ¡°I¡¯ll be out for a few minutes¡± ¡± Ok sir, if I may asked where are you off to?¡± Laura Asked knowing Sebastian was not the type to easily leave his office, either he was not in there or he was in there. ¡°Lunch¡± cane his calm reply. ¡°Ok sir, lunch!!!!¡± Laura yelled loudly in exmation, eyes wide with horror. ¡°See you¡± he added as he walked away with Adia beside him, as she tried to keep up with him. Laura kept staring at Sebastian¡¯s fading silhouette in disbelief, why was he going out for lunch? She actually thought Adia was bluffing earlier, maybe he truly loves this one, but why a weak human and if her ears were not failing her, she could clearly hear heartbeats from Adia. No, no, she can¡¯t be pregnant, Laura shook her head in disbelief returning to her work. HAVING LUNCH TOGETHER A ck Bugatti Chiron stopped in front of a restaurant as Adia and Sebastian alighted from it. Adia wore a bright smile on her face as they walked in, while Sebastian just held a stern look, Adia could feel the curious gaze of people on them, of course they would Stare, Sebastian was a sight to behold, a sight that would make women drool over him. They took a seat beside a window as they waited for the waitress toe take their orders. Some dignitaries were already seated, discussing over anything, Adia had never been here before as Sebastian insisted theye here, and from the way things worked here, it was no ordinary ce. ¡°Wee sir, ma¡¯am, what would you like me to get you?¡± A female waiter asked, with a friendly tone, as she smiled at them. ¡± Hello, ¡± Adia waved back ¡°I¡¯ll opt for a Reuben sandwich¡± Adia said as the waiter gave Adia a ¡® what the bloody hell ¡® look, while Sebastian shot her a hard re shaking his head pitifully and slowly, as he collected the menu from the waiter. ¡± Steak and jelly tuna sd¡± he ordered, throwing the menu back at the waitress who left to get the order. ¡°What the hell was that? Who are you to tell me what to eat?¡± Adia grumbled. ¡°This is not some ordinary sandwich restaurant, that aside, you need healthy foods, you¡¯re pregnant¡± he deadpanned, as Adia scoffed loudly. ¡°As if you care,¡± she pouted. ¡°Of course I don¡¯t¡± he retorted back at her. Few minutester, the waiteress arrived with the order, ¡°I really don¡¯t wanna eat this, and I hate this ce¡± Adiained looking around theposed and quiet restaurant, with a few people around, who obviously minded their business as they spoke in hushed tones. ¡°You wanted to go out for lunch¡± ¡°Not toe here¡± ¡°As you know I love my peace and quiet, I hate crowded ces¡± Sebastian stated cutting the steak skillfully into a small piece before shoving it into his mouth. ¡°Whatever, why didn¡¯t you get me something better, or you could have allowed me to get something myself, not this¡± Adia shot a disgusted look at the beautifully decorated tuna sd in front of her, to crown it all, she hates Tuna fish. ¡± It¡¯s healthy¡± Sebastian replied in a low threatening voice, he was already warning to shut up. ¡± I don¡¯t eat Tuna fish, it makes me wanna puke,¡± Adiained, crossing her arms around her chest. ¡°I¡¯ll order something else¡± ¡°No need, the sight of this made me lose my appetite¡± Adia stopped him as he nodded meaningfully. ¡± Then I guess we¡¯re done here¡± he said, picking up a serviette, as he wiped the corner of his lips slowly, before getting up on his feet. ¡°Let¡¯s go¡± he added, walking away from the scene as Adia squirmed behind him with a frown. ¡°Your bill¡± she shouted after him, seeing he didn¡¯t pay for anything, probably he forgot to do so. ¡°Already taken care of¡± he answered, taking Adia aback, by any chance did he pay for all his future bills, she thought as they got into the car before the chauffeur drove off. **** Adia groaned loudly feeling so weak and tired, her first day of work was so tiring for her, at the same time eventful, with the presence of Laura actually not Sebastian. A Knock came through startling her, as she got up from the bed. ¡°Who¡¯s it?¡± She asked arranging her hair, sitting up. ¡°It¡¯s me¡± A tiny voice answered and Adia immediately knew who it was ¡°Come In Monica¡± she said and immediately after Monica walked in with a trolley. ¡°What¡¯s all this?¡± Adia asked, giving it was not yet time for dinner, it was just past four, since Sebastian insisted she never intended to workte and she had to return home before Four. ¡°Sit Sebastian said you might be hungry, he asked me to get you these¡± Monica informed opening one of the trays revealing a te of Reuben sandwich. ¡± Like he cares, what a Chameleon, ¡± Adia scoffed, throwing herself back on the bed. ¡°Not hungry¡± she grunted loudly. ¡°He insisted you eat,¡± Monica stated as Adia turned to face her. ¡°Then go tell him I¡¯m not eating, why does he even care¡± Adia rolled her eyes, he purposely starved her earlier this afternoon, now all of a sudden, he¡¯s trying to y good guy. ¡°Alright, alright, you can leave it here, I¡¯ll have some just after I freshen up¡± Adia decided to oblige, she¡¯s been craving a sandwich, so she can¡¯t just let the opportunity pass her by. ¡°I¡¯lle backter¡±N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. ¡°Not a problem,¡± Adia said as Monica made her way out, while Adia found her way to the bathroom to have one hell of a bath. **** ¡°What the hell are you talking about?¡± Monique asked in frustration as she sat in a car with a strange guy. ¡°I¡¯ve not been able to track the person she¡¯s been seeing, I can¡¯t even locate him, he¡¯s invisible, like someone really powerful¡± he exined as Monique wondered who the person might be, who has Adia being seeing. ¡°You didn¡¯t even get a picture of him¡± ¡°I wish I could¡± ¡°Okay, this is what you would do, be on standby, now she¡¯s working, there¡¯ll be no need to sneak out, and Sebastian will never let her out of his sight, make sure you use any given opportunity to get to her, and get the job done, mind you, those vampires are very clever and dangerous, make sure you don¡¯t get caught¡± Monique warned sternly. All she wants now is to get Adia out of her way as soon as possible, she couldn¡¯t just wait to end her life, although it was hard to get a vampire ti do the job, she still managed to get one, a rouge vampire to execute the n since the were nothing more than exiles, and enemies of the twilight vampires. ¡± Alright then, don¡¯t fail to inform me about all her movements¡± ¡®i will, I have to run along now, I can¡¯t let anyone notice am missing from my post, I¡¯ll be toast, do a good job and Smart job, of you don¡¯t want to lose your life¡± Monique warned before sneaking out of the car, adjusting the scarf she used to hide her face, taking cautious steps not to get caught, rejoicing inwardly as the thought of Adia¡¯s death really overwhelmed her WHO鈥橲 THE FATHER ¡± I promise you¡¯re gonna love their desserts, I usually buy them, whenever Ie around here¡± Adia tried persuading Laura as they both headed out for lunch break. ¡°Alright, alright, I¡¯ll try them, if that¡¯s what will make you happy¡± Laura said as Adia smiled in satisfaction, Adia has being boasting to her nonstop about how good Le surmats a cafeine was and has being intent on going there for the past one week now. ¡± Great!!¡± Adia eximed happily, actually Sebastian was attending a very important meeting if not, she would have dragged him along instead, a week has passed do far and he does little or nothing she say, except going out for lunch with her, which she obviously forced him the to, asides from that he¡¯s alwayses up with the excuse that he¡¯s Busy. Adia actually thought she could use that to control him and make him bid to her terms, but she¡¯s so wrong, no one can control Sebastian hunters, but as determined as Adia is, she¡¯ll never give up on him. ¡°Why do you like this ce so much?¡± Laura asked seeing no reason why she wanted to go there all for a cup of coffee. ¡°Just Normal cravings, it¡¯s normal for a pregnantdy you know¡± Adia blurted out, as Laura stopped on her tracks dumbfounded at what she just heard. ¡°Pre.. gn¡­ant¡± she stammered pointing at Adia dumbstruck, Adia immediately bit her lips in regret, it just slipped out of her mouth, but Laura was bound to find out one day and Sebastian never mentioned it to her to keep it a secret. ¡°Yes pregnant, almost four months gone¡± she repeated wondering why Laura was so shocked. ¡°Pre.. gna.. nt?!!!¡± Laura yelled very loudly in disbelief, gaining the attention of some persons who looked their direction, wondering what was up.N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. Adia shot a hard re at Laura, Why¡¯s she acting so strange?, She asked herself. ¡°Are you alright, you¡¯re embarrassing me, why are you so surprised¡± Adia stated, it was not a new thing to get pregnant. ¡°I¡¯m so so so.. rry¡± Laura stammered trying to maintainposure, before clearing her throat as she spoke, ¡± I hope you don¡¯t mind if I ask a question?¡± She whispered, dragging Adia closer to her. ¡°Yes¡± Adia responded, trying to recall if Laura had taken anything funny earlier. ¡°Who¡¯s the father?¡± Laura asked, as Adia pushed her backward with a weird look. ¡°What sort of a question is that, I¡¯m married¡± Adia replied stating the obvious, ¡°Wait, wait, Sebastian!!!¡± Laura yelled fir the second time, eyes wide with horror. ¡°Of course, are you sure you¡¯re fine, what¡¯s up with you?¡± Adia asked startled by her strange behaviors. ¡°Are can you be pregnant for him, you¡¯re human!!¡± Laura eximed, Her suspicion was right after all, Adia is indeed pregnant, but she can¡¯t be pregnant, Sebastian¡¯s a vampire, wasn¡¯t it stated humans can never bear vampire children. ¡°Of course I am, we all are¡± Adia chuckled loudly. ¡°Yeah, yeah¡± Laura nodded, realizing she¡¯s going too far. ¡°How did it happen?¡± She couldn¡¯t help but ask again. ¡°Happen??¡± ¡°I mean the pregnancy?¡± ¡°Wh. at!!!, are you sure you¡¯re fine, what sort of a question is that, do you need rest, we can go back to the office¡± Adia stated as it seems her friend had lost her mind. ¡± No, no, I¡¯m fine, I was just surprised, congrattions¡± Laura squealed with quietly. ¡± Yehhh¡± she gave out a fake smile which quickly died down, there was no congratting Adia on this, she¡¯s going to die, that¡¯s if it¡¯s true. ¡± Thanks, now let¡¯s go, tye time¡¯s running¡± Adia said tapping her wrist watch as she dragged a speechless Laura along. ¡± Are you sure you¡¯re okay?¡± ¡± Yes, very okay¡± ****** ¡± Isn¡¯t the coffee here great?¡± Adia asked Laura, who didn¡¯t give an answer as she seemed to be lost in another realm. ¡°Laura¡± she shook her violently, she¡¯s being like this, since she broke the news of her pregnancy, it fejt as if she broke a bad news bit a good one. ¡°Yes yes¡± Laura responded startled. ¡°Are you with me,?¡± Adia asked ¡°Of course, always¡± Laura chuckled cing her lips in n the draw, taking one bit sip of espresso, trying to calm herself down, even though it¡¯ll make no difference, the news earlier totally drained all her energy, if what Adia said is true that she¡¯s really pregnant tir Sebastian no doubt, she¡¯ll die. But what remained a misery was why Sebastian was keeping her, or why he got her pregnant. ¡°Then why are you acting as if yuy heard a bad news¡± Adia asked, Laura was just behaving so nervous. ¡°What bad news?¡± Laura scoffed as sheughed loudly trying to mask her nervousness, she¡¯s now feeling like a bad person now, but why would Sebastian make sure a huge mistake. ¡°I¡¯m so happy for you and sir Sebastian dear, I just can¡¯t believe, this day woulde, a day where he¡¯ll have a family of his, I¡¯m just so, oh my goodness!¡± She eximed as she felt that warm liquid flowing down her eyes, when was thest time she cried?. Before Sebastian turned her, vampires are meant to be strong creatures, but the emotions building up within her was just so much that she couldn¡¯t hold it any longer. Even though she met Adia just a week ago, she¡¯se to like her alot, her genuine smile, cheerful self and kind self, it just felt so heartbreaking to know she¡¯s not gonna live to see her children. ¡°Oh my gosh, you¡¯re crying¡± Adia gasped, ¡°I, i, just can¡¯t believe it, am so happy for you guys¡± Laura said leaning closer to hug Adia. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll make sure you¡¯re my child¡¯s godmother¡± Adia joked as Laura burst into another round of fresh tears, something she couldn¡¯t exin, she couldn¡¯t exin why she was crying, it felt so heartbroken, and she¡¯s not even felt anything called pain since she became a vampire. ¡°Come on it¡¯s okay, you¡¯re making wanna cry too¡± Adia whispered patting her back softly, knowing well she¡¯s not gonna live with her children, her marriage contract with Sebastian ends once she delivers. ¡°My gosh, why am I doing this?¡± Laura forced out aughter as she wiped her eyes. ¡°Come on, drink up, your drink is getting cold ¡° STRANGER Adia stood outside the building of Le surmats a cafeine, waiting patiently for Laura who went to fix her makeup. She was still waiting when ady bumped into her, as her things got scattered on the floor. ¡°Am so sorry¡± Adia apologized as they both bent down to pick up the items scattered on the floor. ¡°Am sorry, my sincere apologies¡± Adia repeated, as she stood up, she froze immediately she saw the woman¡¯s familiar face, judging from her looks and the way she was dressed, she¡¯s no ordinary woman. ¡°No problem,¡± thedy replied with a beautiful smile. ¡°Wait have we met before?¡± She asked taking off her sunsses. ¡± I think,¡± Adia chuckled, trying to recollect where she met her. ¡°Wait a minute, at the hospital, you¡¯re Sebastian¡¯s wife right, oh my god, am Kate¡± Kate introduced herself, extending for a handshake. ¡°Yeah I remember, now, I¡¯m Adia¡± Adia said smiling sheepishly, thest time she remembered, this woman was kinda rude to her. ¡°I know I acted out of it thest time we met, we didn¡¯t even have a proper introduction, I¡¯m sorry¡± Kate apologized, taking a good look at Adia, it was obvious Adia didn¡¯t trust her, and how dare Cora try to deceive her, she¡¯ll make her pay once she gets a hold of her, but right now, she has other pressing matters to attend to. ¡°I¡¯m fine with that, I mean I even forgot it happened¡± ¡°You don¡¯t have to forget Adia, so you¡¯re carrying his child, hmm¡± Kate said with sarcasm as her lips curved up, but that only sent chills down Adia¡¯s spine. ¡± Excuse me¡­¡± Adia stammered, staring intently at her. ¡°Come on, my brother told me about it¡± Kate smiled as Adia looked at her curiously. ¡°I meant Evans Montenero, he¡¯s my brother¡± ¡°Oh¡± realization hit Adia, who just nodded continuously. ¡°You know what?¡± Kate began staring at Adia In the eyes as an evil look ghosted her face. ¡°You¡¯re not gonnast any longer, I mean¡± Kate burst outughing as Adia looked at her bewildered, Wondering if she had lost her mind. Seeing Adia confused look, Kate realized she¡¯s not even aware she¡¯s dying soon, ¡°Wait you don¡¯t even know, I would have told you already, but Sebastian will do that honor, right now, I¡¯m just gonna y with you a little¡± Kate deadpanned, cing adia¡¯s hair behind her ear. Adia couldn¡¯t help but feel scared for no reason, this woman¡¯s presence gave her chills. ¡°Wait did he do it because you remind him of Aisling, oh poor Sebastian¡± Kate shook her head in a pitiful manner before bursting into another round ofughter. ¡°Excuse me, are you alright?¡± Adia couldn¡¯t help but ask as she grabbed Kate¡¯s elbow. ¡°You think I¡¯m mad right,?¡± Kate asked, freeing herself from Adia¡¯s hold. ¡°No, no, it¡¯s just that i..¡±N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. ¡°Come on darling, I can¡¯t get mad, don¡¯t worry too much, but actually I¡¯m running mad¡± she blurted out as Adia eyed her with pity. A saying truly says not all mad people run naked and dirty on the streets, there¡¯re also some well dressed ones, like the samedy who calls herself Kate. ¡°Yes I am mad, I¡¯m madly in love with Sebastian, I love him, and I¡¯ll do anything to get him, I mean anything¡± Kate swore in a menacing tone shooting death res at Adia. ¡°Oh¡± Adia murmured and realization hit her, this one was just another crazy ex, what she couldn¡¯t fathom was why Sebastian¡¯s crazy exes are always after her. ¡°I would have very much loved to kill you right now, but I love ying a lot, so I¡¯ll do that some other time, right now I¡¯ll just have fun,¡± she said, yanking Adia shoulders as their eyes met, ¡°Forget about everything I told you, you never met me, immediately you meet Laura, Walk into the road, and stand there until you get hit by a car¡± Katepelled as Adia watched her in disbelief, stating she¡¯s really mad, what¡¯s she telling her to forget, and why would she stand in the middle of the road. Before she couldment, Kate was gone from her sight, ¡± What a strange woman¡± Adia scoffed, looking around for Laura, who was already taking much time. ¡°Adia¡± Laura called from behind as Adia turned to face her. ¡°My goodness!¡± Adia eximed, what took her so long. ¡°I¡¯m so sorry, I took a long time¡± Laura sincerely apologized. ¡°Let¡¯s just leave this ce¡± Adia said as the environment was already suffocating her. ¡°Off we go¡± Laura said as they walked to the car. ***** ¡°Are you alright?¡± Laura asked, sensing Adia¡¯s difort, she¡¯s being rather strange. ¡°Am fine, just a slight headache, I¡¯ll be fine soon¡± Adia said leaning her head backwards, her head really hurts for an unknown reason, like it really hurts a lot. ¡°Do you need water?¡± Laura offered, as Adia politely declined. ¡°No I¡¯m fine¡± ¡°Alright, you¡¯re pregnant, it happens often, just have a good rest¡± Laura advised, things must be really hard for Adia, she thought noticing the sheen of sweat gathered on her forehead, she looked not okay, or is it one of the side effects of bearing a vampire child, Laura wondered, but she knew only nothing about this. ***** ¡°Adia, are you sure you¡¯re fine?¡± Laura asked as they boarded the elevator, she¡¯s looking so pale now. ¡°Not really, I guess I¡¯ll have to go home earlier than scheduled¡± Adia replied, she¡¯s being feeling okay earlier, she just began feeling difort immediately after meeting Kate. ¡°Alright then, ¡± The duo got out from the elevator as Adia walked slowly into Sebastian¡¯s office to get her purse and inform him that she was leaving. At this very moment, she could already feel her surroundings spinning around her, she only managed to get into the office. She saw Sebastian sitting down working, he was already back from his meeting, ¡°Hey¡± she waved weakly, picking up her bag. ¡°I¡¯ll be going home early today¡± she informed as Sebastian nodded in approval without looking up, but something felt strange and he was forced to look up at her, she looked rather weak. ¡°Are you alright?¡± He asked, ¡°Yeah, I¡¯m fine, it¡¯s just, it¡¯s just, I¡­i..¡± Adia stammered feeling a sharp pain, as the office revolved around her, ¡± I¡­I¡­¡± she stammered holding her head, as she was slowly losing consciousness. ¡°I¡­.¡± She uttered weakly, finally giving in to the darkness that wanted to engulf her as her world finally went nk. Sebastian senses heightened up, on seeing her strange behavior, he leaped to her like a lightening speed catching her before she fell to the ground, as he shook her pale body violently, ¡°Adia¡± he called alerted, squatting slowly and steady on the floor with an unconscious Adia wrapped in his arms. TENSION ¡°Laura!!¡± Sebastian¡¯s voice thundered angrily shaking the whole ce violently, ¡°Sir,¡± Laura answered, rushing into the office, fidgeting like a chick left alone in the rain, only to see Adia unconscious wrapped in Sebastian¡¯s hands. ¡°Oh my goodness, Adia¡± she gasped loudly rushing close to Adia as she squatted near Sebastian to check her pulse, but retracted when Sebastian give her a menacing look, she had no choice but to remain standing waiting for him to unleash his terror upon her, after all she was thest person with Adia. ¡°What the bloody hell happened?¡± He asked angrily, not knowing why a stream of anger just rushed into him. ¡°I don¡¯t know, I swear, ¡± Laura swore, she really didn¡¯t know what happened to her. ¡°How will you not know what happened to her, you¡¯re thest person she was with, and why¡¯s her skin cold as hell?¡± He asked, cing his fingers on Adia¡¯s neck, it was as if she was just brought out from a cold room, the coldness of her skin was just unusual, and it felt like it was increasing every second. ¡°Jesus, I swear, we had normal lunch, she only startedining of a headache when we got to the car¡± Laura exined, praying silently that Adia¡¯s gonna be alright, maybe it¡¯s just one of the signs of her pregnancy. ¡°Probably sir, it¡¯s just one of the signs of¡­..¡± she voiced out her thoughts but was interrupted by Sebastian who snapped at her angrily. ¡± Of what!!¡± ¡± The pregnancy, you know, she¡¯s, she¡¯s,¡± Laura demonstrated, using her hands to illustrate a big tummy, only to receive one of the coldest re from Sebastian, the air around her was already choking her, the Aura arousing from him was killing her, she could just slump anytime soon. ¡± Jesus save me, ¡± she prayed silently, shifting backwards from Sebastian, ¡± Shut up and get my car¡± Sebastian instructed, pulling off his coat as he covered Adia with it. ¡± On it sir¡± Laura breathed out in relief as she dashed out of the office, thankful that she was able to get away from that ce, even if it was only for a few minutes. Sebastian bundled Adia up in his arms, carrying her out of the office, her temperature rising as her skin got colder by each passing minute. Some employees cleared the way speechless, when they saw their boss approaching with a woman in his arms, some had to wipe their eyes to be sure they saw right. ¡®oh my fucking god!!¡¯ they eximed loudly, wondering who the woman was, seeing her head was buried in his arms. ¡°Sir¡± the guards rushed to him, attempting to carry Adia from him, but they look he gave them, only got them stumbling back in fright. ¡°Sir the car¡¯s ready¡± Laura informed the moment Sebastian got to the parking lot, she opened the door to the backseat, as Sebastian carefully ced Adia there, before she shut the door closed. ¡°The keys¡± she handed the keys to him as he grabbed it from her, Sebastian was about to enter his car, when Laura stopped him,Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. ¡± But Sir you have an important meeting by¡­.¡± Laura stopped talking as she coughed out Loudly, cursing inwardly, as she bit her lips hard, why is Sebastian looking so feral and dangerous, it¡¯s really intimidating her. ¡± Have a safe trip, I wish Adia a safe recovery with my utmost sincerity¡± Laura smiled as Sebastian entered the car, driving off in full speed, ignoring her. Laura released all the Breath she was surpassing the moment Sebastian left, she walked back to her office praying for Adia¡¯s quick recovery. .. ¡­ .. ¡°It¡¯s just a normal cold Sebastian, I can¡¯t believe I came running here like a mad man, I thought someone was dying¡± Evans said, making sure Adia¡¯s temperature was stable as he turned to face Sebastian. ¡°A normal cold¡± Sebastian deadpanned as Evans nodded, if it was someone else that told Sebastian this, his head would probably be rolling on the floor now. ¡°Yap, something you can take care of, just keep her warm, and it¡¯s done¡± Evans informed, he literally came running thinking Adia was dying, he was having a good Dick massage from Cora, when this worry head called him over, though he didn¡¯t tell Cora about it, it was best to see things for himself, and it turned out to be a minor case. ¡°I¡¯ll be leaving now, I¡¯ve got something Great waiting for me¡± he patted Sebastian¡¯s shoulders with a mischievous smile on his face, ¡°Hmm¡± Sebastian nodded, shoving him off as Evans hurried away, anticipation feeling him up, his Dick was already throbbing at the thought of Cora warm hands on it. ¡°What are you doing here?¡± Sebastian asked as Arion walked into the room. ¡°I came to see how my sister-inw is doing, is that a crime?¡± Arion scoffed as Sebastian turned to face him. ¡°You don¡¯t like her¡± ¡°Partially true, but I have a heart¡± Arion smiled, cing his hands on his chest affectionately. ¡°What did you wanna talk about?¡± ¡°Outside¡± Arion gestured, as they both walked out to the barconly, ¡°Care for¡± Arion offered, stretching out a cigarette to Sebastian, who collected it from him, after he lit it up. ¡°Speak¡± came his concise words, while he puffed smoke from his mouth. ¡°You care for her right?¡± Arion asked, as Sebastian turned to face him. ¡°Brother, we know that¡¯s not why you¡¯re here¡± Sebastian said as Arion chuckled. ¡°When was thest time you called me that, Brother¡± he muttered thest words slowly as he yed with the cigarette between his hands, before taking a smoke from it. ¡°Why are you here?¡± Sebastian asked again, shoving his question aside. ¡°Where¡¯s Mickelson?¡± Arion asked. ¡°Having a good time¡± Sebastian responded with a wide smile on his face. ¡± You can¡¯t continue being like this, I know you¡¯re ruthless and that¡¯s how it meant to be, but this is Mickelson we¡¯re talking about, I think your punishment is enough, you can¡¯t just leave him dessicated in somece,¡± Arion stated, ever since the incident with Adia, Sebastian had taken Mickelson somewhere, with the aim to punish him, but Arion was sure he¡¯s still alive, Sebastian wouldn¡¯t kill him. ¡°That¡¯s left for me to decide, you will see him soon, or maybe never¡± Sebastian concluded walking away casually. ¡°We¡¯ll see about that, brother¡± Arion¡¯s lips curved up as an idea hit him, Sebastian has no idea he has a leverage now, something that can totally control him. TEMTATION Adia tossed round the soft bed as the rays of sunlight hit her eyes from the window shutters. ¡°Gosh!¡± She eximed silently pulling the duvet up to her chest as her eyes scanned the room, her sight was blurry, so she couldn¡¯t see her surroundings well, but she was sure of one thing ce she¡¯s in is right now isunfamiliar. ¡°Where I¡¯m I?¡± She asked herself as her eyes got used to the room, as she began to see things more clearly, events of the day before shed into her head, a really bad headache hit her, and she was feeling sick and then fainted, but where?? She frowned her face looking round the spacious room that was mostly covered in gray, I went to get my purse from Sebastian¡¯s office, she reasoned silently trying to figure out where she was. ¡°Sebastian¡¯s office, Sebastian¡¯s office¡± she uttered silently looking around, dark shade colors, gray curtains, no pictures and flowers, itcked anything called emotion and only reeked of Sebastian. ¡± Jesus Christ!!!¡± She yelled loudly as realization hit her, jumping out of the bed as she fell on the floor. ¡± Ouch¡± she yelped in pains holding her buttocks, ¡± What am I doing here?¡± She asked, mouth wide ajar. ¡± This is literally Sebastian¡¯s room¡± she said to herself getting up on her feet slowly, as she leaped to the door. ¡± Bloody Mary!!!¡± She Eximed for the second time the moment she noticed what she was putting on. ¡°His shirt!!¡± She yelled in horror looking at the white sleeve shirt, ¡°And boxers!!¡± Another shout cane again this time even louder, how did she end up here. She could perceive his smell lingering around her, probably because of his clothes on her, but who¡¯s the dimwit that did this, she fucking has a whole bunch of clothes. Opening the door slowly, she perked her head out to ensure no one was around, this was Sebastian¡¯s room and luckily he hates having people around, but the problem was, she didn¡¯t know her way out, she¡¯s never been here before. Pushing the door, she brought out one leg, ready to sneak out, when a voice startled the living hell out of her. ¡°Where do you think you¡¯re going?¡± ¡°Lord save me!!¡± She screamed as she turned around, her hand on her chest as she tried to control herbored breathing. ¡°Where are you off to?¡± Sebastian asked again as she gulped loudly. ¡°Ou. t, I¡¯m o.. ut¡± she stammered pointing at the door, as her face flushed crimson red, the godly sight in front of her was worth breathtaking. ¡°Yo.. u¡­. You..¡± Adia stammered again pointing usingly at Sebastian, why is he fucking shirtless?, She screamed in her head biting her lips. ¡°Yes, go back to bed¡±C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org ¡°What bed?¡± Adia retorted, as a big lump went down her throat, The abs, and, his, his¡­.. dick.. Jesus Christ, Adia bit her lips usingly as her eyes met with the boxers he was putting on, his thing is so big, no, no, the fact he was shirtless was not helping issues, now this, His white skin was so enticing, that you would want to run your hands through them, Adia could feel herself already salivating to run her hands through those white legs of his, then his inked skin was a story for another day, it¡¯s just one man. Adia looked down, curling her toes, she¡¯s so fucking nervous now, that she can¡¯t bring herself to raise up her head. That was when she noticed another thing, she was not wearing a bra beneath and her nipples were standing out, ¡°Oh my fucking god¡± she cursed loudly wrapping her hands quickly around her chest, that little gesture of hers sparked something up in Sebastian, as he found himself ginning, which he quickly hid of course, ¡°Go back to bed¡± he finally said, working close to her. ¡°Don¡¯te any closer¡± Adia screamed as Sebastian stopped in his tracks wearing a puzzled look. ¡°Put on something¡± she ordered, head still down. ¡°Why did you bring me here?, And why am I putting on your clothes?¡± She asked, ¡°Because you fainted¡± Sebastian replied, stating the obvious. ¡°I have a room and lots of clothes also¡± she retorted as Sebastian¡¯s jaw worked. ¡°Right, I didn¡¯t think about that,¡± he said. ¡°You didn¡¯t think about that!!¡± Adia screamed, raising her head up, only to see him a few meters away from her, still shirtless. ¡°Oh my ¡± she stuttered looking back. ¡°I guess you were so worried about me¡± ¡°Don¡¯t get your hopes up, dear,¡± Sebastian said, closing the space between them. ¡°Move backwards¡± she instructed, as she fidgeted trying to control her stance. ¡°Why, no need to be shy, we¡¯ve done it before, skin to skin¡± he deadpanned thest words, as his breath fanned Adia¡¯s face, they were so fucking close to each other. ¡°That wasn¡¯t intentional, and trust me I didn¡¯t see any part of you¡± Adia stuttered. ¡°You can see now, or we can try¡­.¡± he began moving his lips to her ear, as he whispered to her softly, ¡± You know¡± Adia immediately stopped breathing the moment he said those words, is he seriously flirting with her, or he¡¯s trying to pull her legs. ¡°I¡¯m pregnant, do scram¡± Adia said angrily. ¡°And who said we still can¡¯t do it, it¡¯s not even due yet¡± he responded, referring to her pregnancy, as a mischievous smirk ghosts his face. ¡°I¡¯ll, I¡¯ll, I¡¯ll,¡± Adia stammered trying to find the right words. ¡°You¡¯ll what?¡± He snapped at her, as he moved his fingers to the first button of the shirt she was putting on, as he undid it, then he moved to the next button, repeating the same thing. ¡°What are you doing?¡± Adia asked in alert. ¡°Taking back my clothes, I thought you didn¡¯t need them¡± he replied as Adia choked, he was fucking serious because her cleavage was already showing. ¡± I¡­i.. didn¡¯t mean¡­..¡± she couldn¡¯t finish her statement, as Sebastian ripped the shirt she was putting on, as her breasts sprang open, right before his eyes. ¡°You!!!!¡± Adia shirked loudly, attempting to cover herself up but all to no avail as she couldn¡¯t use her hands because of the way they stood close to each other, she couldn¡¯t leave her upper body, naked in front of him, so another idea, struck her, it always worked, in fact it was men weaknesses, she raised her knee up aiming for his thing, but Sebastian best her to it as he caught her knee cap in time, spreading one of her legs in the process. ¡°Why are you doing this?¡± Adia couldn¡¯t help but ask, was this another form of punishment or what, ¡°This is so unfair¡± she said, as hot tears were already threatening to fall from her eyes, she knew she was utterly powerless against him, struggling won¡¯t even help. She was about to utter another word when a knock came through, ¡°Who¡¯s it¡± Sebastian asked, ¡°Sir it¡¯s Ma Reed¡± the person responded. ¡°Come in¡± Sebastian ordered as Adia kept shooting nces at him, dumbstruck, she¡¯s naked upwards, and they¡¯re standing so close to the door, there¡¯s no doubt that she¡¯s gonna be the first thing the so called Ma will see once hees in, ¡°Sebastian¡± she called softly as their eyes met, is he seriously gonna let another man see her. THE TORMENTER AND THE TORMENTED Adia looked at Sebastian with pleading eyes as the door knob turned, his eyes looked so empty, and it was obvious he cared less, ¡°Seb don¡¯t¡± she muttered, but it was already tote, the door had already sprang open, she closed her eyes shot not wanting to witness anything, Like a sh, she felt her bare back hit the cold wall, as Sebastian wrapped her legs around his waist, while her chest and his, came in contact with each other. She could literally feel her breasts settled on his rock hard chest, her insides warming up, Adia had no choice but to grip him harder, that they now looked like two couples joined together forever not wanting to let go of each other, she buried her head on his shoulders, hiding her face in shame, Adia could swear that she was already red as a tomato, as Sebastian wrapped his hands around her waist, pulling them closer. ¡°Speak¡± he ordered as Adia trembled, due to their close proximity, Adia could feel the hoarseness of his voice and his calm breaths. ¡°I have a message¡± Ma announced, with his head down, he dared not look up, or he would lose his eyes for ever taking a look at his master¡¯s woman, even a small nce would cost his eyes. ¡°From??¡± ¡°Brit¡­..¡± ¡°Wait in my study¡± Ordered Sebastian as Ma rushed out of the room. Adia breathed in relief the moment she was sure Ma was out of the room.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. ¡°Never underestimate my kindness to you, hmm¡± he whispered to her ears, dropping her on her feet as he strode into the bathroom to grab a robe, and a few minutester he was out of the room. ¡°Bastard¡± Adia cursed loudly, rushing into his closet to grab another shirt, how dare he toy with her, she really feels disgusted at herself. Adia quickly wore the shirt before running out of the room, she¡¯s gonna find her way back whatsoever. ***** ¡°I really miss you girl, these past few days have being very boring without you¡± Laura pouted engulfing Adia in a warm hug. ¡± I¡¯m fine now, and being bed sick sucks,¡± they both chuckled loudly as Adia looked around the office. ¡± Sebastian¡¯s in there right?¡± She asked, pointing at his door, as Laura nodded. She has tried her utmost best to stay away from him as far as possible, she couldn¡¯t even stand his presence any longer, as what happened that day kept reying in her head. ¡± I¡¯ll be back¡± she said, picking up her purse, before walking in. Adia opened the door slowly and saw Sebastian sitting behind his table, she had no ns on speaking with him, so she grabbed a few things and dashed out, avoiding his eyes. Sebastian¡¯s lips curved up triumphantly, it seems as if his ns worked, he just wanted things to be awkward between them, so she would leave him alone, and that was also the best punishment to give to her for calling him a dummy, But instead of him being the torturer, he¡¯s now being the one tortured as that little punishment sparked up something within him, those little juicy breasts of hers, has refused to leave his head, and always served as a great distraction to him. He never gets swayed by women, but the singr act has been tormenting him and thankfully Adia¡¯s staying away from him, maybe he¡¯d probably done something he¡¯d regret, something unthinkable, to her, bad things. ***** Adia sat behind Laura¡¯s desk working, as Laura pleaded with her to fill in for her for a few hours, something she was delighted to do, as it served as a distraction to her. She raised her head when she heard the sound of heels from someone approaching, it was definitely a woman, her face immediately scrunched up in disgust, the moment she saw the person. ¡°Lana Rhoades, we meet again¡± she muttered with sarcasm as Lana approached. ¡°And what do we have here?¡± Lana phrased cing her chanel purse on the table. ¡°What do you want?¡± Adia asked harshly, why was she always meeting Sebastian¡¯s crazy exes, she met one before, now this one again, but what was Lana doing here, she thought her and Sebastian was already over. ¡°None of your business, I knew you were just posing as Sebastian¡¯s wife, you turned out to be his secretary after all, I wonder what happened to Lana, and how you managed to crawl in here¡± Lana expressed triumphantly. ¡± You are so impossible, obsessing over a man that will never look your way, a married man for that matter,¡± Adia drawled out, averting her gaze from Lana. ¡± And who is he married to?, You¡¯re clearly his secretary¡± ¡± Me, guess you don¡¯t know me, I¡¯m Adia Hunters, now scram, cause I¡¯m not letting you in there¡± Adia uttered stating the obvious. ¡± And where¡¯s your ring, you¡¯re clearly not wearing one¡± Lana scoffed loudly. ¡± Fuck off, or I¡¯ll call the security to throw you out¡± Adia threatened, some women really gat no shame, throwing yourself at a man who doesn¡¯t give a damn about you. ¡± You know what Adia¡± Lana began as her jaw worked. ¡± I have a deal for you¡± ¡± Not interested,¡± Adia spat out. ¡± Come on baby girl, you¡¯ve got to be interested, if you can convince me Sebastian¡¯s your husband, I promise to leave you alone and bless your marriage¡± she stated, with a warm smile on her face, a good idea just struck her a few moments ago. ¡°I¡¯m not in for stupid deals, you can believe it or not¡± Adia retorted. ¡± Come on it¡¯s just a deal, to prove yourself¡± ¡± And¡­.¡± ¡± Two Saturdays from now is the 65th annual anniversary for all business h, h, h¡± ¡± How¡¯s that my business¡± ¡± You see, this party is one of the most morous for all the business people, I mean only the most sessful business men and women grace the asion¡± ¡± Just get to the point,¡± Adia snapped angrily. ¡± Simple, just make Sebastian your date to the party, and I¡¯ll leave your lives forever, and give you my blessings¡± she So ad grinning ear to ear, as Adia just stared nkly at her IT鈥橲 A DEAL THEN ¡°Get lost¡± Adia spat returning to her work, this woman was just spurting rubbish out of her mouth. ¡°Come on Adia it¡¯s just a deal, or are you¡­.¡± ¡± It¡¯s a deal then, now get out of my sight¡± Adia implied angrily. ¡± With pleasure, see you soon¡± Lana said with a smile picking up her bag elegantly, turning to make her way out. ¡± Pest¡± Adia uttered picking up a ss of water. ***** ¡°Um Laura can I ask you something?¡± Adia began turning to face Laura. ¡°Sure¡± ¡°What¡¯s the business aniversary about?¡± She asked curiously. ¡°Nothing much, it¡¯s just to celebrate the business world, it¡¯s usually splendid and morous, why are you asking?¡± Laura inquired, as she took a sip of water from the bottle by her side. ¡°Well I wanted to attend this year, actually with Sebastian¡± Adia informed, ¡°What!!¡± Laura yelled spiting all the water out from her mouth in shock. ¡°I¡¯m so sorry¡± she quickly apologized, picking up a napkin to wipe the table. ¡°Is anything wrong?¡± Adia asked startled. ¡°Not really, why do you want to attend? Laura inquired, because as far as she can remember, Sebastian had never graced that asion, her and Rowan always did that favor. ¡± Cause I want to, any problem with that?¡± ¡± No, no, it¡¯s just that Sir Sebastian doesn¡¯t like attending that, so I¡¯m just curious if he told you¡± Laura exined as Adia finnally understood what was going on. She¡¯s being wondering why Lana woulde up with such a deal, now she knows the reason ¡® what a sly fox¡¯ Adia thought as she smacked her lips, she only dug a trap for her, of course she¡¯s dated Sebastian and her father also owns a bigpany, do she¡¯s probably aware he hates attendance, and he¡¯s gonna turn her down just the same way he turnedna down. ¡® I¡¯ll teach her a good lesson¡¯ Adia thought loudly, she¡¯s definitely gonna prove her wrong, cause she¡¯s gonna be at that party with Sebastian by her side, though things are akward between them, she¡¯ll just have to ovee the thought of whatever happened that day and face Sebastian. Besides he¡¯s supposed to do whatever she says for a whole month, but she¡¯s not even being able to make demands, giving she¡¯s to shy to approach him. ¡® wait a minute¡¯ Adia paused as a big realization hit her, Sebastian doesn¡¯t like her, or have any sexual desires towards her, then why would he do something like that?, It was just a form of distraction to keep her away from him, ¡°You fool¡± Adia cursed loudly as Laura turned to face her puzzled. ¡°Fool!!?¡± She asked speechless, ¡°I¡¯m so sorry, not you, ¡± Adia chuckled, waving Laura off, she¡¯s definitely gonna teach him a big lesson. ¡°Laura¡± she called, ¡°Hmm¡± ¡°You¡¯ll tell me everything there is to know about that party, thanks¡± she demanded puzzling Laura. ¡± But sir Sebastian doesn¡¯t like¡­.¡± Laura spluttered as Adia cut her short. ¡°Leave that to me,¡± ¡°Alright¡± Laura agreed shrugging her shoulders. ¡°Also I¡­¡± A call came through interrupting Adia, the name Logan Moreau was written on the screen. ¡°Fuck¡± Adia muttered silently, she¡¯s being ghosting him for a while now, always procrastinating the idea to call him. ¡°I¡¯ll take this¡± she murmured, standing up as she headed straight for the bathroom. ¡°Hey¡± A deep voice peered from the other side of the line as Adia smiled. ¡°How do you do?¡± She asked, ¡°Good as new, what about you?¡± Logan inquired, happy to have heard her angelic voice, he¡¯s being so worried that he¡¯s not being able to hear from her for two weeks, he even prepared a little party for her birthday, but didn¡¯t even see her, not even a shadow. ¡± Good I think¡± Adia responded, ¡± I actually wanted to see you, seeing you ghosted me for two weeks, hmm¡± Logan remarked, taking his seat as a brte haired girl walked out to him. He was currently at the beach side now, feeling the natural gifts of nature, as the cool breeze blew his brown hair backwards making him look angelic more then ever. He was putting on shorts and white shirt with the buttons undone, revealing his taut muscles and inked skin. ¡°I¡¯m so sorry, just that I was out of town, you know work and all,¡± Adia chuckled wanting this conversation to end as soon as possible, this ce was clearly not to the best to have conversations, seeing Sebastian might have nted cameras around. ¡°I see, well I wanted to give you a birthday gift, and happy birthday in arrears Adia¡± he wished sinking his fangs into the brte¡¯s wrist relishing the sweet taste of blood in his mouth. ¡°Really?¡± Adia asked happily, ¡°Sure anything for a friend¡± responded Logan, retracting his fangs. ¡°Cool¡± uttered Adia,Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. ¡°So what are you getting me?¡± She asked curiously, ¡°It¡¯s a secret, babe¡± he replied as Adia cleared her throat loudly, why the hell is he calling her babe, they¡¯re just friends ¡°Okay¡­..¡± ¡°Let¡¯s meet¡± he requested, cing his fangs back on the brte haired girl. ¡°I¡¯m not sure..¡± Adia began trying to clear her schedule, ¡°Let¡¯s say¡­¡­Saturday, yes, Saturday¡± she stated, her n was to remain at home on Saturday and then sneak out. ¡°Alright then¡± Logan murmured in between sipping from the brte. ¡°Okay, are you alone?¡± Adia asked, since she heard gurgling sounds. ¡°Yes, am having lunch, enjoying the view by the sea side¡± Logan responded as the brte dropped dead on the floor. ¡°Alright then, enjoy¡± ¡°Definitely¡± Logan replied with a wide smile on his face, as he picked up a siervette to wipe his mouth. ¡± Got to get back to work, bye¡± Adia said as the call disconnected. ¡°Take care of this mess¡± Logan ordered as one of his men came to drag the brte haired girl away. ¡°Did you get anything ?¡± He asked as someone approached him from behind. ¡°Yes sir¡± Griffin replied handing over a file to him, ¡°Good¡± hemented as an sly look ghosted his face. ¡°Phew¡± Adia breathed out, looking at her reflection in the mirror. ¡°Who was that?¡± A deep low velvety but dangerous voice greeted her ears as she froze turning slowly, only to see the ridiculously handsome face of Sebastian. ¡°Oh my God¡± she breathed in a state of shock out as her phone fell on the ground. GETTING INVOLVED WITH VAMPIRES Ten minutes passed as Adia stood facing Sebastian dumbstruck, the hell is he doing here?, And how did he get in? ¡°Who was that?¡± Sebastian asked again, keeping his gaze on her, as she shifted ufortably. Adia gulped down loudly, trying to find the right words to say really, she couldn¡¯t tell him it was a guy she met when she snuck out of his house, he¡¯s gonna kill her and then Hunt that friend down and kill him also. Clearing her throat, she decided to muster courage and pretend everything was going well, ¡°A friend¡± she responded as quickly as she could bending down to pick up her phone, ¡°A friend,¡± Sebastian repeated in a low tone, nodding his head momentarily. ¡°Yes, do you have a problem with that?¡± Adia retorted trying to be brave, as she turned to the sink, switching on the two, while she washed her face, All the while, Sebastian stood watching, as she washed her face not uttering any word as he waiting patiently for her to finish, ¡°I¡¯ll take my leave now¡± Adia proceeded, making haste to leave the suffocating restroom. ¡°Not so fast¡± Sebastian said grabbing her by her arm, as he brought her back to stand in front of him, ¡°What do you want?¡± She asked, her headid down, as his towering height overshadowed her, ¡°I just suddenly became curious about that friend of yours, could you please shed more light about him?¡± Sebastian asked, as Adia looked up to face him, before quickly retracting her gaze, as she looked downwards again. ¡°He, there¡¯s no he, it¡¯s a she, and she¡¯s my friend from college, any problem with that?¡± Adia retorted, facing him this time with a stern look, trying to act brave. ¡°Have a nice day¡± he suddenly uttered as Adia scoffed loudly, He was just trying to make a fool out of me as always, Adia thought as her jaw worked. ¡°You too,¡± she mumbled, walking away from his sight. A smile ghosted Sebastian¡¯s face immediately Adia locked the door behind her, he couldn¡¯te on time to hear their conversation, but he was certain something was up. .. ¡­ ¡°Okay, are you alone?¡± ¡°Yes, am having lunch, enjoying the view by the sea side¡± ¡°Alright then, enjoy¡± ¡°Definitely¡± ¡± Got to get back to work, bye¡± .. .. These were the exact words he heard, before the call was disconnected and it was clearly a man¡¯s voice, meaning Adia was lying to him. From the background check he did on Adia, she has no friends aside from Cora and no family around here in North California aside from Addison. Seeing her other family are distant rtives and they are all based in France. Her father was from France and stayed in Los Angeles for some time where he met her mother, theyter got married and settled in North California. Little or nothing information was gotta about Adia¡¯s mother, except she was the adopted child of some family, and Adia¡¯s father¡¯s family was basically against the rtionship, given they were some sort of important people back there in France, and they are also the ones responsible for their tragic deaths. Sebastian knows everything there is to know about Adia and there was never a male friend in her life, meaning she just met whoever that person is. Picking out his phone, he dialed a number as aid out a few instructions, ¡°Sir¡± the person answered from the other side of the line. ¡°Ma, i want you to keep a watchful eye on Adia for now henceforth, monitor all her movements and report to me on everywhere she goes, understood and also, check about her movements fir the past two months, about all the ces she has visited since she stepped foot into that house¡± he instructed as Ma noted everything down. ¡± Yes sir¡± ¡± That will be all ¡± he said, ending the call. ¡± What have you been up to peters,¡± he wondered, creasing his brows. ¡°But it won¡¯t take long before we find out,¡± he added, making his way out majestically. .. .. . Adia took a breath of relief immediately she got out of the restroom, was Sebastian stalking her, He tends to show up anywhere and everywhere, and thankfully she hasn¡¯t blown her cover about how she sneaked out of that house for about two weeks or she¡¯d be dead meat, ¡°You¡¯re back¡± Laura said as Adia approached, ¡°Yeah¡± Adia replied as she slumped on the chair, staying withura has be sort of a routine for her now, the agreed was she stayed within the four corners of Sebastian¡¯s office, but it looks as if he trusted Laura a lot and doesn¡¯t bother about her being close with her, because Adia was sure he¡¯d never allow her to be that close with someone else, he ims to have no sort of affection for her at the same time tends to always want to protect her.N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. ¡°You look kind of stressed out¡± Laura implied as Adia nodded slowly agreeing with her. ¡°A lot, I need a great deal of rest¡± Adia breathed out picking up a bottle of water from the table as she gulped it down in one go. ¡°You can take a Short nap, I¡¯ll take care if the things around here¡± Laura volunteered with a smile on her face, ¡°Thanks, you¡¯re a life saviour¡± Adia appreciated feeling very grateful, ¡°Anytime darling¡± Adia shed a light smile, before ying her head in the table, the day has kinda being rough for her, and the only thing needed now for her, was rest absolute rest, she needed to free her mind from all thoughts about Sebastian, about everybody in fact and focus on her health and that of her baby, probably she¡¯ll go for a checkup soon, and see how things are going down there, she¡¯s not a doctor by profession, but she knew she needs absolute rest, because she¡¯s being stressing herself too much now. ¡°Good afternoon sir¡± Laura greeted Sebastian who was walking passed his office, he waved at her before disappearing from sight. Laura took a nce at Adia who was sleeping soundly, feeling nothing but pity towards her. She¡¯s really gonna go through a lot once her pregnancy advances, it was inevitable for her, a human, this will probably be the worst mistake of her life, getting herself involved with vampires. REVELATION ¡°I swear i¡¯m doing great at the same time not too great¡± Adia signed heavily as she narrated her experiences so far with Cora. ¡°Don¡¯t worry Adia, it¡¯ll be fine, ¡± Cora coaxed, ¡°I hope so¡± ¡°Catch youter, I have to run along now¡± ¡°Bye, my regards to Addison,¡± Adia muttered, disconnecting the call. The elevator made a pinged sound as she stepped out of it, praying for the rest of the day to be peaceful without any hassles or stress whatsoever, the day has being quiet so far, and she just wanted it to remain like that, Little did she know that the lord had other ns for her, she was weed with a sight that shocked her beyond measures. .. .. .. TWENTY MINUTES EARLIER¡­. Sebastian just arrived when Laura came in, telling him he had a visitor, ¡°Who¡¯s it?¡± He asked wondering who dared disturb him, he had already ordered everyone that he¡¯s not avable for anything whatsoever today. ¡°Who the hell is it?¡± He inquired angrily, as Laura flinched backwards by the tone of his voice. ¡°Not someone I¡¯ve met before, but he ims to be your brother and demands to see you, say he won¡¯t move a inch and unless he meets you¡± Laura reported as Sebastian listened with rapt attention. ¡°He¡¯s just trying to seek attention, send him out, if he refuses, detain him¡± Sebastian instructed coldly. ¡°But sir..¡± Laura began hesitant, ¡°I think he¡¯s your¡­ . I mean the hair and his eyes color all matches with that of you and the other masters¡± Laura added as Sebastian stilled, ¡± I¡¯ll be there soon¡± he replied calmly as Laura made her way out, ¡®what does that son of a big fucking wants,?¡¯ Sebastian cursed angrily left his office furiously. ***** Sebastian¡¯s face wore a displeased look the moment he saw that face of one of the people he despises the most in the whole universe, thest thing he wants is to see how , but the son of a pig will only create a tantrum even it means spilling blood and killing innocent lives until he sees him. So he¡¯ll just have to bear a few suffocating seconds with him. ¡± Brother!!¡± The waiting man called delightfully beckoning for a hug which Sebastian bluntly refused, ¡± What do you fucking want, and I¡¯ve told you to stop calling me that, I¡¯m not your damn brother¡± Sebastian deadpanned with a dangerously low voice as they atmosphere around him suddenly changed, ¡°Tsk tsk tsk, that¡¯s minus 10 points, that¡¯s no way to wee your family you haven¡¯t seen for years¡± he stated wearing a disappointed look. ¡± We¡¯re not family and never will, stop dreaming of that possibility and never forget your ce, you¡¯ll never fit in Logan¡± Sebastian phrased out word by word shooting deadly at the man in front of him. ¡°What a shame, you still have that anger issue of yours, chill brother, at least give me a warm wee¡± Logan said with a bright smile. ¡°We all know that will never happen, spill¡± Sebastian uttered softly, adjusting his tie. ¡°I miss you, where are my other siblings, I¡¯d love to say hello too¡± Logan voiced out looking round, as if Ace and Arion would be around somewhere. ¡± You¡¯re alone Logan, you don¡¯t have family aside from that sultry mother of yours, always remember that,¡± Sebastian pointed out with a hint of mockery. ¡°I heard great and impressive news,¡± Logan began. ¡°I Know you¡¯ve being spying on me, Logan, I¡¯ve always known¡± ¡°Then why didn¡¯t you stop me?¡± ¡± Cause it¡¯ll be pointless, you¡¯re just a lost puppy seeking for attention that you¡¯ll never get¡± Sebastian spat out harshly, as a wave of emotions ghosted Logan¡¯s face which he quickly reced with a smile. ¡± You know I¡¯lle for her right?¡± Logan implied as Sebastian turned to face him. ¡°You can try,¡± He retorted, making Logan chuckle loudly. ¡°Of course I will, and I¡¯ll make sure I kill her right before your eyes slowly and painfully¡± Logan threatened, Sebastian walked up to look Logan, anyone who would see them now, will think they¡¯re gods of destruction, ready to tear everything apart While hatred was clearly visible in one¡¯s eyes, the other held a kind of emotion one could not fathom. ¡°You can try but then you¡¯d be digging your grave, have fun, I¡¯ll have to run along now, I¡¯m very busy and have some fatherly duties to attend to, while you go about suckling for attention¡± Sebastian whispered to his ears, patting Logan¡¯s back, as he turned to leave, only to find Adia standing there as someone who has being struck by thunder. What the hell is she doing here?, He pondered, Logan is not meant to see her, because he made sure Logan never got to see her face or know about her identity when he was spying on him.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. Logan beat him to it as his gaze met Adia, but a huge surprise came his way when Logan called out Adia¡¯s name. ¡°Adia¡± Logan called out gleefully, puzzled about what she was doing here. ¡°Jesus Christ!!¡± Adia gasped out in shock as she came face to face with two incredibly handsome men, what has she gotten herself into, could it be that Sebastian and Logan know about each other, there¡¯s no way out of this, because Logan acted as if they¡¯ve known each other for a long now. ¡°Hey¡± she mumbled softly, nning to Walk away from them as soon as possible, she answered to Sebastianter, probably she¡¯ll cook up a story. But Sebastian ruined her little ns as his angry voice rang in her ears, ¡°Stop right there Adia¡± his voice thundered as Adia froze right on that spot, now everything was making sense to him, Logan was the man Adia spoke to the other day, and she clearly just met him, because there¡¯s no way Adia could have known Logan before, reason being that he just settled in North California, but how¡¯s any of that possible when Adia was being derived of going out for more than a month and just starteding out, there¡¯s no way they would have be friends in the space of two months, because from the look of things Logan act as if they¡¯ve known each other for long and we¡¯re close pals, it¡¯s looks as if there¡¯s more than the eyes meet. ¡°Yes¡± Adia sluttered in fright, ¡°Come here¡± he ordered beckoning her to move forward with his finger. ¡°What¡­. tt, ¡± Adia stammered, she¡¯s gonna be a dead meat, Sebastian will feed her to her ancestors today, ¡°Can¡¯t you walk or do you want me toe carry you up myself¡± Came his next words, as the two people present in the corridor froze. I HATE YOU ¡°I¡¯ming, don¡¯t bother¡± Adia mumbled under her breath, mustering courage, ¡°Then make it snappy¡± Sebastian snapped as Adia hastened her footsteps. ¡°Adia, what a pleasure to meet you, but what are you doing here?¡± Logan asked speechless, howe in all ces he met Adia here. ¡°I work here¡± Adia answered as she coughed silently, shifting ufortably. ¡°Really?¡± Sebastian raised a brow at her, as Adia gave him a weird look, Is he out to destroy her life, she thought frustratingly. ¡°Adia,¡± Logan began but was interrupted by Sebastian. ¡°Ms Adia¡± he corrected, as Logan froze, he knew Adia was pregnant and probably married, but she didn¡¯t look married at all, he shed that thought after meeting her for a few times. Deciding to ignore Sebastian, Logan continued , only to receive another shock, yet again, ¡°Adia,¡± he called. ¡°I thought I told you Ms Adia, or is that too hard for that thick skull of yours, it¡¯s Ms Adia¡± Sebastian drawled out as Adia shot a ¡®WTF¡¯ at him. Logan just stood dumbfounded, looking at his brother and the woman he has affection from closely, it¡¯s just so unbelievable, when did Sebastian ever get married. ¡°But she¡¯s ..¡± ¡°Pregnant I Know, and spoiler alert, it¡¯s my baby¡± Sebastian phrased out for Logan, who was obviously shocked beyond measure, the moment he saw the way Logan looked at Adia, he immediately knew Logan had something for Adia, but when have they being meeting, Adia has being up to something, he¡¯s gonna deal with herter, now he has to get rid of Logan. ¡°But she¡¯s hum..¡± ¡°That¡¯s enough Logan, I think we¡¯re done here, Adia to the car now,¡± he ordered in a stern voice, Adia could tell he was already angry, she had no choice but to oblige, she gave Logan an apologetic look as she walked away. Picking his phone from his pocket Sebastian called a number as he gave the person a few instructions, ¡°Ma, Adia¡¯sing downstairs, keep her in the car and make sure she goes not where till I arrive,¡± Sebastian ended the call, before returning to his brother. ¡°Sebastian you, she¡¯s a damn human¡± Logan yelled with the same powerful tone Sebastian uses when he is angry, anyone who would see the fury in his face will know better than to stay. ¡°That¡¯s my business to take care of, now you know you have no ce ever again in Britaris¡± Sebastian said turning to leave ¡°Do you even care about her life, of course not all you want is power¡± Logan snapped angrily, an unexinable emotion shed through Sebastian¡¯s eyes, which was immediately reced by his hollow eyes, as he faced Logan. ¡°Of course I don¡¯t, ¡± he replied, walking away from Logan .. . .. ¡°Drive¡± Sebastian instructed immediately he got into the car, as the Ma immediately elerated away. Adia sits quietly fidgeting as she bit her nails nervously, she¡¯s in serious trouble now, Sebastian would kill her. ¡°I¡¯m sorry¡± she muttered facing him, she just have to exin herself, ¡°Let me exin, I said I¡¯m..¡± ¡°Shut up Adia, not another word from you¡± Sebastian yelled suddenly, as Adia flinched backwards, the atmosphere in the car suddenly became cold, and Ma had to stop abruptly at a screech. ¡°Why did you stop the fucking car?¡± Sebastian asked Ma who instantly began driving, ¡°I said I¡¯m sorry, let me exin, ¡± Adia said pleadingly, but it all fell on deaf ears. ¡°What part of shut up, don¡¯t you understand, shut your damn mouth Adia, it only riles me up the more¡± Sebastian grunted angrily. ¡°But I have a right to speak also, ¡± ¡°Adia!!¡± He called in a menacing tone strong enough to make an adult cry and flinch. ¡°But you have to listen to me also, you act as if you own me¡± Adia raised her voice, as she red at him. ¡°Of course I do, as long as you live under me, I own you¡± ¡°Sadly you don¡¯t, I mean, you¡¯re so indifferent, you treat me like trash, as if I don¡¯t exist, as if I haven¡¯t got an emotion, it hurts Sebastian hunters, anyone in my shoes will do worse than that¡± ¡°Of course I don¡¯t care, I don¡¯t give a damn, the only thing I care about is that baby in you nothing else, you¡¯re nothing but a mistake, and mistakes are not met to happen, you¡¯re meant to stay away from it, make sure you avoid it at all cost, and that¡¯s what i¡¯m doing Adia, I¡¯m avoiding a huge mistake, and that¡¯s you,¡± Sebastian stated in a low voice, but Adia could clearly hear the hate and distaste in it, ¡± What wrong have I done, it was never my fault we crossed paths, why then do you deprive me of all I deserve, no friends, attention, anything¡± Adia choked out, trying to fight back the tears piling up in her eyes, threatening to fall anytime soon.Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. ¡± Exactly, youing into my life is the worst thing ever, the worst mistake I¡¯ve ever made, you don¡¯t know what you¡¯ve got yourself into Adia, you just stepped into hell, hell¡± he deadpanned as he loosened his tie. ¡± It¡¯s not my fault, ¡± Adia mumbled as the tears she¡¯s being trying to fight, gushed out like a stream of water. ¡± Of course it is, the fact you were even born is a sin, don¡¯t you get it?¡± Sebastian uttered as he stared deep into her eyes, that were brimming with tears, strangely he regrets everything he said to her, but he can¡¯t just help it, the anger within him was just too intense that he felt like smashing someone¡¯s head, but he¡¯ll never do that to Adia, will he? Seeing her tears, one part of him felt like engulfing her in a hug and those tears off her eyes, while the other part wanted nothing but to hurt her badly, real bad. ¡°Why me?, It¡¯s not my fucking fault, you¡¯re so delusional, heartless, you have no emotions in you at all, you¡¯re meant to be the highest ranked demon in hell Sebastian, yes in hell, you¡¯re cruel , vicious, you think only about yourself and no one else as if you¡¯re on top of the whole earth, as if you¡¯re better than everyone¡± Adia cried, yelling at the top of her voice, giving Sebastian a disappointed look, ¡°I hate you¡± she added, ¡°I know, and it should remain that way until I get you out of my life Adia¡± Sebastian stated, feeling Adia shooting daggers from where she says, while she wiped her tears, she probably hates him by now, but that¡¯s what he wanted, for her to hate him. WHY HER Ma drove as fast as he could, wanting to get home as soon as possible. He didn¡¯t want to be the middleman of the couple¡¯s argument, hitting the brakes he cursed loudly at the road. the journey seems to get longer and longer today as if it didn¡¯t want to end. ¡°Why do you even care who I go out with, if you don¡¯t give a damn about me?¡± Adia couldn¡¯t help but ask, if he really thinks of her as a mistake, he¡¯ll just let her act as she wishes to act. ¡°Because you¡¯re carrying baby¡± Sebastian breathed out as a hint of guilt shed his eyes which he quickly reced with the same old emotionless eyes. ¡°Why do you even give a damn about Logan, he¡¯s just a Friend¡± Adia snapped at him, ¡°He¡¯s not your friend Adia, you don¡¯t even know him¡± ¡± Do you know him,?¡± Adia asked with a croaky voice fixing her gaze on him ¡°Yes, Adia more than you do, and more than you¡¯ll ever will,¡±Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. ¡°Why he¡¯s ¡­ just a¡­.¡± ¡°Because he¡¯s my fucking brother Adia, do you see the reason why you guys can never be together¡± Sebastian growled at her as Adia froze in shock. Now everything made sense to her, the looks and all, no wonder Logan looked really familiar the first day they met, their eyes and hair color all matched together, Ace, Arion, Sebastian and Logan. But how are they brothers, and why hasn¡¯t anyone ever mentioned a fourth brother. ¡°But¡­his surname is Moreau,¡± Adia stammered in disbelief. ¡°My name is Sebastian Hunters bloody Moreau¡± Sebastian yelled through gritted teeth as Adia held her chest in dismay. ¡± Don¡¯t ever act like you know me Adia, cause you don¡¯t¡± he added. Adia just sat speechless, so many things were running through her head now, and she needed to calm down and think straight. ¡± Stop the car¡± She stuttered tapping on the chair Ma was sitting on, but Ma ignored her as he continued driving. ¡± I said stop the damn car, now¡± Adia yelled this time, tears rolling down her cheeks. Ma hesitated on what to do, he was caught in between, he can¡¯t ever disobey Sebastian, but Adia¡¯s Sebastian¡¯s wife and has equal rights too, besides Sebastian never instructed him to keep driving, so he can as well stop the car. But seeing the tension, thest thing he would do now is disobey Sebastian, at least Adia won¡¯t kill him, but Sebastian would. ¡°Stop the car now!!¡± Adia squealed, shaking the car down violently, caught in between, Ma gave Sebastian a questioning look, it was only when Sebastian nodded that he could stop the car, that was when he could finally breathe. Parking on the road side, Adia dashed out of the car, as she walked away sobbing, ¡°Should I follow her?¡± Ma questioned Sebastian who had his head rested backwards, ¡°Leave her¡± he responded, he just felt all she needed now was a alone time for herself, she¡¯lle around Soon and return on her own ord, she deserves that space and he¡¯s gonna give her that. .. .. .. . Adia walked slowly across the road, weakly, the way she looked now was as if she was thrown out of the house, like a fugitive, it was an eyesore. Wiping the remnants of tears from her eyes, she realized she left her purse in Sebastian¡¯s car, even her phone is in there, today is such an unfortunate day for her, now she¡¯s stranded, how will she return home, speaking of home, that ce didn¡¯t felt like home to her one bit, it was just one issue after the other, it¡¯s either Lana Rhoades or Sebastian mming her head on the wall, regardless of the fact she¡¯s pregnant, it¡¯s like all the rich people has lost their brains, they didn¡¯t even know how to act one bit, they¡¯re all insane. Choosing another alternative, she decided to visit the ce she once called home, Cora¡¯s ce. And she¡¯s gonna walk there, seeing she has no money on her, Adia hastened her footsteps, so she¡¯ll get there on time, since it¡¯ll take about three hours to get there, probably she¡¯ll find help on the way. Thest thing Adia wanted to think about at the moment now, was Sebastian, she didn¡¯t even know how to describe him any longer, Adia was already beginning to shed him on a different light, thinking maybe something can change between them, but now it¡¯s all over, she¡¯s not even gonna try any more, she¡¯ll just deliver the baby and get out of everyone¡¯s sight, maybe she¡¯ll even end her life and cease to exist, Sebastian even mentioned her breathing was a huge mistake, that¡¯s true, she¡¯s a huge mistake, nothing good everes out from her, nothing but misery. Adia looked above her and saw a ck car packed by, a new ray of hope shed upon her as a smile ghosted her face for the first time, she rushed to the car to ask for help, she¡¯ll just make a phone call to Cora and maybe ask for a few bucks. ¡°Good afternoon¡± Adia greeted as her sight weed a man in dark shade sunsses. But instead of answering her, he pointed to the back seat, ¡°Excuse me¡± ¡°He met you can speak with the madame over her¡± a female voice said, the ss rolling down, Adia stilled immediately she saw the person, WHY HER?. .. .. . Sebastian stormed into the house angrily as everyone who walked past him shivered, he looked so pissed off like he¡¯s gonna go berserk anytime from now. ¡°Seb, didn¡¯t expect to see you return so early¡± Ace said alighting from the stairs, ¡°Ma!!¡± Sebastian called ignoring Ace, ¡°Yes sir¡± Ma responded as he stepped forward. ¡°I told you to get me something yesterday¡± he uttered but Ma already knew what he meant as he beckoned for a guard to bring a file, which he read out. ¡°Miss Adia was spotted outside the house on July 2nd by Le surmats a cafeine, she almost got into an ident but was save by Logan Moreau, they started seeing each other a few times after that, and how she managed to sneak out, she used the tunnel after the basement with the help of a maid, but strangely I can¡¯t get my hands on which of the maids looks as if she had this carefullyid out Incase anything went wrong¡± Ma reported as he retracted backwards. ¡°I see,¡± Sebastian muttered as his jaw worked. ¡± Someone¡¯s trying to y smart with me, gather all the maids, now!!¡± He ordered as a murderous glint shed his eyes. TRAITOR All the servants of Sebastian¡¯s household stood in fright wondering why the master had summoned them, it reeked of nothing but trouble, they could all feel the unsettling feeling at the depths of their stomach. Nothing at all felt right, the way Sebastian looked at them, the Aura arousing from him, and the urgency in which they were called, it didn¡¯t feel right at all. ¡°I will go straight to the point¡± Sebastian began looking at them sternly, with Ma and Ace behind him, Ace just stood and watched, praying silently it wouldn¡¯t turn to a bloodbath. ¡°Who helped Adia sneak out of this house?¡± He asked, most of the servants breathed out in relief, this matter has nothing to do with them after all, if it would to be anyone it will be the Laurent sisters, they¡¯re always around Adia, not them, but that didn¡¯t guarantee their safety just yet, all of them could go in for one person¡¯s mistake. Silence reigned as no one dared speak out, their heads facing the ground, none of the servants dared look up at Sebastian. ¡°Bring them out¡± Sebastian finally said, after a long period of silence, pointing at the Laurent sisters, Monica and Monique were both dragged out as they were made to kneel in front of Sebastian, ¡°Which one of you is the culprit and make your answer snappy, I hate waiting¡± he drawled out as Monica and Monique both shivered. ¡°Am so sorry sir, please forgive me¡± Monique begged at the top of her voice as she stepped forward, there¡¯s nothing to hide now, she¡¯s already busted, Sebastian is gonna catch her anyways, she can just beg for her life. ¡°Forgive me sir, I was just helping Miss Adia, she begged me to help her leave the house and threatened to end her life if I told anyone, I just did that to save your baby¡± Monique stuttered fearfully, lying was the only option now. ¡± Nonsense¡± Sebastian grunted angrily. ¡°You¡¯re lying, speak and justify yourself¡± he said again. ¡°Sir, I¡¯m telling the truth, I swear¡± Monique stammered, as she felt someoneing closer to her. ¡°Really¡± Sebastian deadpanned, holding up her chin to face him, ¡°Yes sir¡± Monique replied shakily, she¡¯s finally seeing the face of her beloved this close, biting a situation like this, instead of his eyes filled with love and affection for her, it was filled with deceit and deception, and a murderous glint this is far from what she dreamt of, how did Everything go wrong in just a couple of minutes. ¡°I hate liars you know, anyways I¡¯ve already gotten the truth already¡± ¡± Sir please¡± Monique begged, ¡± Your descendants will suffer for this, and don¡¯t forget to say hi, to your ancestors¡± Sebastian said and with that he snapped Monique¡¯s neck, removing her head from her body, blood sprawling all over the ce even on his face, as the servants stood still, they weren¡¯t surprised at all, thierbods tends to behead anyone who went against him, it was like a tradition here. ¡± Noooooo¡± Monica gave out a shrill cry as her sister¡¯s lifeless body fell on the floor, followed by her head, ¡± Monique nooo, Monique,e back, please¡± she cried, shaking her sister vigorously, fighting the urge of bloodthirst building up within her. ¡°You, you knew about it didn¡¯t you¡± Sebastian snapped turning to face Monica. ¡°Please sir spare me, it was never in my power to speak, but I promise, I never meant harm¡± Monica cried, she didn¡¯t want to die now, ¡°Tsk tsk tsk,¡± Sebastian yawned as if he was bored of her speech. ¡°Please sir¡­¡± Monica begged in between sobs. But it all fell on deaf ears as Sebastian ced his hands into her chest as he found his way to her heart, ready to pull it out. ¡± Sebastian don¡¯t¡± Ace stepped in, as Sebastian stopped to face him, his hands still on Monica¡¯s heart, any move and she¡¯ll be dead. ¡± Did I miss anything?¡± ¡± Don¡¯t, spare her¡± Ace said as he looked at his brother, praying he listens to him. ¡± And why should I spare her life?¡± ¡± Because Adia wouldn¡¯t want this, we all know she¡¯s Adia¡¯s only friend in this house, and means no harm, you know that too, but your doing this to make yourself feel better, but I won¡¯t do any good brother, Adia is only gonna resent you for the rest of her life, for Killing her friend¡± Ace exined hoping he gave it his best, maybe this can sink into Sebastian¡¯s skull. ¡± Do you think I care if she resents me, you know that¡¯s what I want, for her to hate me, so you gave the wrong speech, brother¡± Sebastian deadpanned, tightening his grip on Monica¡¯s heart, taking life away from her slowly. ¡°Sebastian fucking don¡¯t, listen to me, I¡¯m sure you don¡¯t want two brothers against you¡± ¡°You¡¯re gonna go against me, because of her?¡± Sebastian scoffed loudly, ¡°Do you think I give a damn¡± Sebastian added scornfully ¡°Not for her, but for Adia, she already hates you enough, don¡¯t make it worse¡± ¡°You all go to hell¡± Sebastian hissed, removing his bloodied hands from Monica, as she fell down gasping for breath. ¡± Clean this mess¡± he ordered, referring to Monique¡¯s body as he left the room with Ace and Ma following behind him. ¡± Speaking of which, where¡¯s Adia, I haven¡¯t seen her around, did you leave her at the office, but Ma¡¯s here¡± Ace reasoned, ¡± She¡¯s not here yet,¡± came Sebastian¡¯s short reply.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. ¡± And why is that?¡± ¡± We had a little fight, so she wanted some time for herself,¡± ¡± And¡­¡± Ace drawled out, ¡± I gave her the space she deserves, she¡¯ll be home any minute¡± ¡± You left her without any protection!!!¡± Ace eximed loudly, staring at his brother on disbelief, ¡± She wanted to be alone, what did you expect me to do, stalk her,¡± ¡± You left her stranded, how do you expect her to get here, you¡¯re so impossible¡± Ace was utterly speechless at Sebastian¡¯s action, he tends to act without thinking sometimes. ¡± Ma, send out your men, and bring her back¡± Sebastian ordered as she began walking away. ¡± Where are you off too?¡± Ace queried. ¡± To have a good long rest, make sure no one disturbs¡± he responded, disappearing from sight. MISSING Ma stood in the hallways slightly troubled, contemting on how to break the news to Sebastian, luckily for him, Ace came by. ¡°Ma,¡± he called, stopping close to him. ¡°Where¡¯s Adia?, I don¡¯t see her around¡± he asked, ¡± Sir, from observations, Ms Adia has been abducted¡± Ma announced as he froze. ¡± What the fuck do you mean by abducted?¡± Ace asked in horror, ¡± We couldn¡¯t track her whereabouts neither the car that zoomed off with her¡± ¡± Have you told Sebastian yet?¡± ¡± He said not to be disturbed¡± Ma responded, Sebastian has clearly ordered that no one disturbs him, he¡¯s already pissed off enough and it¡¯ll be worse if he learns of Adia¡¯s abduction. Ace looked at Ma for a long time before signing deeply, ¡°I¡¯ll take it from here, go with your men and see if you can find anything¡± ¡°Thanks so much sir¡± Ma appreciated bolting away. ***** ¡°Sebastian open the bloody door¡± Ace yelled knocking on the door noisily, this is the third time that he¡¯s knocking on the damn door, but yet no response so far. ¡°Can you just stop being so cocky, well I don¡¯t have anything more to say, I¡¯ll be off now, but Know this, Adia has being abducted, she¡¯s missing,¡± Ace said taking a few steps away from the door, as he stared at his watch counting, in less than ten seconds Sebastian would be out from that door. ¡± Five, four, three¡± he counted awaiting Sebastian, ¡± Two, on¡­..¡± ¡°What the fuck do you mean, where the hell is Adia¡± Sebastian howlerered, dashing out of his study room, with an indescribable speed, ¡± I Know that would bring you out from there, so you do care for her, Don¡¯t you¡± Ace asked, his lips curving up. ¡± Don¡¯t tell me you brought me out fir nothing?¡± Sebastian growled angrily. ¡± No, Adia¡¯s really missing, and we¡¯ve been unable to identify her abductor¡± Ace announced sadly, as Sebastian¡¯s hold on him tightened, strangling him in the process, ¡°What did you say!!?¡± ¡°Easy man, I¡¯m not the culprit, so take your hands off me, I¡¯ve already sent your men to go search for her, now if we¡¯ll do the say, let¡¯s go, we have a long day ahead, I¡¯ll inform Arion and the rest of the situation at hand¡± Ace stated but it seemed as if Sebastian was not listening at all. ¡°I¡¯ll be Back, call me if you find anything¡± he said, ¡°But¡­.¡± Ace didn¡¯tplete his statement as Sebastian leaped away, through the rooftop, disappearing from sight.C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org .. .. .. ¡°Have this Griffin, get back to me if you hear any news from my brother¡± Logan ordered cing a card on Griffin¡¯s palm. ¡°Will do sir, I¡¯ll¡­¡­¡± the door in the room suddenly broke into bits as Logan and Griffin turned to that direction alerted, ¡°Where the hell is she?¡± Sebastian voice thundered as he sprang in like an enraged bull, ¡°What the fuck¡± Griffin eximed rushing to Sebastian to deliver a punch, but Sebastian caught his fist just in time, and in a swift move, he wrapped his arms around Griffin¡¯s neck, snapping it, before dropping Griffin¡¯s unconscious body on the floor. ¡°Impressive, I must say, wait how did you even get in, where are my men?¡± Logan queried, surprised by his brother¡¯s sudden visit. Sebastian would never visit him or even look him in the face unless something really important was up. ¡°Dead¡± came Sebastian¡¯s curt reply as he crossed Griffin¡¯s body, rushing to Logan, who he pinned on the wall. ¡°Where the bloody hell is Adia??¡± He asked again, his eyes zing like thunder, as he bared his fangs at Logan. ¡°I could have assumed you¡¯re drunk, but vampires don¡¯t get drunk do they, why are you asking over a woman that you clearly took with you when you left the office, now get these hands off me¡± Logan gasped but Sebastian only tightened his grip on him. ¡°I¡¯m gonna kill you I swear, where are you hiding her?¡± Sebastian asked again, his patience already wearing off. ¡°You know brother, to can¡¯t juste in hereying usations, you even killed all my men¡± Logan Breathed out, Is Sebastian really looking for Adia?, He couldn¡¯t help but wonder. ¡°I must say, you and that son of a bitch down there are next, if you don¡¯t provide Adia this minute¡± Sebastian said again,nding a heavy punch on Logan¡¯s face, as a crack sound was heard. ¡°Fuck!!!¡± Logan eximed loudly, licking the blood smeared on the corner of his lips. ¡°Just talk while am being nice, and save yourself the troubles¡± ¡°I didn¡¯t take her Sebastian, Adia¡¯s not here, I haven¡¯t seen her since she left that ce with you, let go off me this instant,¡± Logan grunted angrily, the fact Adia¡¯s missing riling him up the more. Sebastian took one long look at Logan, before throwing him on the ground roughly, ¡°If you didn¡¯t then who?¡± He asked with a hint of frustration as he swept his hair backwards, revealing his worried handsome face. ¡°How the fuck did she get missing?¡± Logan asked alerted and getting up on his feet, he and Sebastian would have already been in a blood battle, for Sebastian evering here in the first ce and creating a huge mess, but maybe he¡¯ll save the fight for another day and find Adia first. ¡°None of your business, scram¡± Sebastian growled, ¡°I thought you were the almighty Sebastian Moreau¡± Logan snickered only to receive a hard re from Sebastian. ¡°Come on brother, no matter how you try to deny it, you¡¯ll always be a Moreau and my blood¡± Logan uttered with a tone of finality. ¡°In your dreams, I guess I¡¯m done here, can¡¯t believe I saw your despicable and Annoyingly ugly face for nothing¡± Sebastian muttered as Logan gave out a longugh. ¡± You don¡¯t cease to amuse me brother, everyone knows we¡¯ve all gotten the same features, look at the Moreau brothers, gray eyes, brown hair, handsome, you can¡¯t call me ugly¡± Logan said grinning. ¡± You¡¯re not a Moreau, you¡¯re not my brother, you¡¯re just a illegitimate child, whose useless mother can¡¯t keep her damn pussy to herself, that¡¯s who you¡¯re, Know where you stand Logan Durand, that¡¯s who you are, the son of a mere maid, don¡¯t think too highly of yourself because I let you borrow the name Moreau, if you would excuse me, I have a person to find,¡± Sebastian stated, as Logan¡¯s smile fell, as Sebastian leaped away after that, leaving Logan in a undescribable state. Logan just stood as he watched Sebastian leave, he tried to contain the anger bubbling up within him, to face the situation at hand, Adia needs to be found. AS A HUSBAND AND FATHER ¡°Any news?¡± Sebastian asked walking into the house, ¡°Not at all, not even a trace, but Arion is walking on something already, he¡¯d be sure to find something soon¡± Rowan replied typing on hisptop noisily. ¡°Where were you off to?¡± Rowan asked, noticing the stain of blood on Sebastian, ¡°I went to visit a brother¡­.¡± He said with sarcasm, unbuttoning his shirt. ¡°Logan?¡± ¡°Yes, but it seems as if he has nothing to do with this, I¡¯m beginning to suspect Kate, but I¡¯m not sure she knows about Adia yet¡± Sebastian reasoned, grabbing another shirt from his closet. ¡°I don¡¯t think so,¡± Rowan mumbled, staring intently at hisptop. ¡°What do you mean?¡± Sebastian asked walking closer to Rowan, to take a closer look. ¡± Here, on the 15th of August, Adia reportedly met Kate at the famous coffee shop,¡± Rowan exined, showing Sebastian the footage. ¡°How did you get this?¡± ¡°I looked into Adia¡¯s movements for the past few months and found this¡± Rowan informed, as realization dawned on Sebastian, this can go really bad of Kate¡¯s the one responsible for Adia¡¯s abduction, ¡°What is she saying to her?¡± Sebastian asked as it was obvious they were engaged in a very serious conversation. ¡°Let me check if I can get any sound signal¡± Rowan said working on a few things, before he was finally able to get the sound after some time, ¡°Shit¡± Sebastian cursed loudly as he listened to their little conversation, Kate can be so contemptible, listening to their conversation was enough to know that she might have a hand in this, then there came a part that alerted them, ¡°Wait, is shepelling her!!¡± Rowan eximed in horror as he increased the volume, .. ¡­ ¡°Forget about everything I told you, you never met me, immediately you meet Laura, Walk into the road, and stand there until you get hit by a car¡± .. .. ¡± She clearlypelled her to walk into the road, till she gets hit by a car¡± Rowan uttered in disbelief, because as long as he¡¯s concerned Adia has never being involved in am ident, and a vampire¡¯spulsion never fails, unless the person beingpelled took ginger water, ¡°Have you been feeding Adia with ginger water?¡¯ Rowan asked because thepulsion obviously did not work on Adia. ¡± Not at all, I warned everyone never topel her, and didn¡¯t see the need for ginger water¡± Sebastian exined utterly speechless as well, he didn¡¯t know if this was a good thing or not. ¡°Thepulsion did not work, this only means that, Adia can¡¯t bepelled,pulsion don¡¯t fucking work on her¡± Rowan concluded, ¡°Humans can never resistpulsion, but¡­¡± ¡± Witches can¡± Rowan broke in interrupting Sebastian, ¡± Witches¡­¡± he repeated watching Rowan sternly, ¡°Yes, Witches can¡¯t bepelled¡± Rowan phrased it again, taking this to be good news, if Adia¡¯s a witch, there might be a chance of saving her. ¡°Witches have gone extinct, we executed them, remember, vampires we burnt them all to aches¡± Sebastian reminded Rowan, who continuously creased his brows looking for the best exnation for this, ¡°But¡­¡± ¡°That¡¯s not the problem at hand now¡± Sebastian chimed in, ¡°We need to make sure Adia¡¯s alive, before dering who¡¯s a witch or not, and we can¡¯t be certain if Kate¡¯s really responsible for this, shepelled her to jump into a moving vehicle, she might still think Adia¡¯s dead, or maybe hospitalized, so there¡¯s no proof yet¡± Sebastian theorized as Rowan nodded in approval,N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. ¡°Call Evans and ask him to find out about the whereabouts of his sister, inform everyone about our new theory, so they should focus on finding Kate also,¡± Sebastian added. ¡°On it,¡± Sebastian fist curled up, as he thought of what Adia might be going through if Kate¡¯s really the one responsible for this, Kate is obsessed with him and will do anything to get him, even by killing her best friend Aisling, so if she¡¯s the one who kidnapped Adia, they need to locate them as soon as possible, because Adia¡¯s in real trouble, if he don¡¯t get to save her fast. ¡°I¡¯ll try and look for any other clues¡± Rowan muttered, wiping the Sheen of sweat off, from his handsome face. ¡°I swear I¡¯ll kill everyone who has a hand in this?¡± Sebastian swore, imagining the amount of pain Adia must be going through, only made him Moreau furious and troubled at the same time. He didn¡¯t know why, but he didn¡¯t want what happened years ago with Aisling to happen again, history mustn¡¯t repeat itself, never, Adia cannot die, not with his child. A sound of something shattering was heard as Sebastian and Rowan stood up, ready to attack the intruder. ¡°Did you think I¡¯d leave so easily?¡± Logan said with a sly smile as Sebastian rolled his eyes. ¡°Rowan hey, it¡¯s been a long time¡± he waved at Rowan who held a stoic face. ¡°How did you get in,?¡± Sebastian asked because he has the best of the best vampires guarding this ce and Logan wouldn¡¯t be able to get in that easily. ¡°I¡¯m a Moreau, just told them my identity, and boom, I was allowed in here¡± Logan uttered smiling widely at Sebastian. ¡°I thought I clearly told you to mind your damn business, ¡± Sebastian grunted angrily. ¡°Let¡¯s put our differences aside and face the problem at hand¡± Logan said, wearing his normal expressionless face, he had alreadye to a conclusion. ¡°And that is?¡± Sebastian drawled out watching him with keen eyes that held nothing but hate. ¡°Let¡¯s find Adia, me as a friend, you, as a husband and father¡± ***** Located at the outskirts of the city, an old, abandoned house, with two heavily built men guarding the house. The door led to a small dark room, with a small window as the only source of light there. A small petite figureid there, as the person fumbled on the floor, opening her eyes slowly, only to be weed by darkness, ignoring the splitting headache she felt, Adia managed to get up on her feet looking round the room that looked empty, the smell only made her feel nauseous, as she felt like puking her intestine out. The only lighting in was from a little window that did little or nothing to make her see the whole room. Everything that happened to her earlier, portrayed to her, as realization hit her, she has been abducted. HELP!! Adia managed to find her way to the door, despite the darkness as she pounded on it noisily, ¡°Help!!, Please, get me out of here¡± She screamed at the top of her voice, ¡°Somebody please!!¡± She cried out, hitting the door with all her strength which was already leaving her slowly,Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. ¡°Get me out of here,¡± she cried falling on the ground weakly, little or no strength was left on her, She cried regretting everything that had happened earlier, she shouldn¡¯t have left Sebastian¡¯s side, regardless of the quarrel they had, he would have protected her at all cost, and let no harme to her. She shouldn¡¯t have expected more from the rtionship between them, she shouldn¡¯t have done all of that, probably her and her baby would be safe. If she had avoided all of this, if she had listened to Sebastian instead and stayed indoors, her child would never be in danger. He was right, it¡¯s not safe for her at all. Just a few hours that she was away from his sight and protection, she¡¯s has being kidnapped, the enemies were just waiting for the right time to do this, ¡°Let me out,¡± Adia cried again, screaming at the top of her voice, her throat was already dry, and she was feeling so parched right now, that anything liquid would do to satiate her thirst and hunger. ¡°Help!!!!¡± She yelp crying loudly, praying that Sebastian will find her soon, If only she knew those people never meant good, she could have just stayed put in the car, she only approached them for help, not knowing they had other ns, they were already nted there, waiting for her. ¡°Seb, pleasee and save me¡± she mumbled to herself, a stream of tears flowing down her cheeks. Adia got up again, with all the strength she could muster, as she continued knocking on the door loudly. ¡°Get me out, ¡± she yelled, ignoring all the pains she felt from hitting the iron door for too long. She was sure there were already a few bruises, because she could already feel her blood on her palms. ¡°Help¡­.¡± She was about to give out another shrill cry when the door sprang open, ¡°Can you please shut up, you¡¯re being so noisy!!¡± A huge man howerled as Adia stumbled and Fell to the ground. ¡°Who are you?¡± ¡°Please let me out of here¡± she begged, getting on her knees. ¡°I promise I¡¯ll pay you hands.. omely for this, even more than what the pe.. rso.. n who sent you is paying, ple. as.. e let me go, spare me¡± she begged only to get a scornful Look from the man. ¡°Rubbish¡± he growled, hitting Adia on her face, as she fell again. ¡°Please¡± she begged nheless feeling pains all over her face, it hurts so much, she thought. ¡°My husband is very wealthy, he can even get you and your family a whole city, please don¡¯t do this¡¯ ¡® she tried to coax pleading with the huge man, but it all fell on deaf ears. ¡°You know what?¡± He began squatting in front of Adia, as she scrunched her face from the disgusting smell oozing out of him. ¡°No need for all that, you know why?¡± ¡°Cause I¡¯m gonna have fun with you¡± he said smiling, showing his brown set of mrs, as he ran his finger tips down Adia¡¯s face, making Adia whimpered, as she shifted backwards, ¡°After that, the madam is gonna do to you however she pleases, then we¡¯ll send your corpse to your husband¡± he said, yanking a whimpering Adia by her neck as she screamed loudly. ¡°Please let go¡± she cried, pushing him away with all her strength, using that opportunity to get away from him. ¡°You¡¯re one feisty youngdy, but you don¡¯t ever stand a chance against me¡± he uttered as he grabbed Adia¡¯s ankle dragging her closer to him, as he held her shoulders tight. ¡°I¡¯d love to have a taste of what that billionaire has being enjoying, you look so sexy¡± he smacked his lips, as he looked at Adia with lust, even though she looked so tattered at the moment, she still looked pretty and his dick twitched anytime he peeks at her cleavage that was slightly exposed. ¡°Get off me, you son of a pig,¡± Adia yelled, as he ran his fingers from her ankle, moving slowly to her thighs. This can¡¯t be happening again, Not again, she sobbed. She¡¯s been having enough traumas from what transpired between her and Sebastian, it¡¯s been so hard trying to live with that, oveing that was not easy for her. But not this ugly, dirty, looking man, he and Sebastian were so different in terms of everything, she already felt so dirty just by him touching her. Sebastian¡¯s looks were enough to get both men and women off the edge, his face was something to die for, though he hardly smiles, his pink lips, brown hair and gray eyes was a story for another day. Everything about him, oozed of elegance, the way he walked, spoke, drank coffee, worked, ate, was mind blowing. His rock hard hard chest that always had her drooling with the most cute tattoos perking out, it was just so unexinable. This man here was the direct opposite of Sebastian, she¡¯ll just die, if he gets toy his filthy hands on her, she¡¯s never be able to live with her getting raped by someone like him. ¡°Get off please, don¡¯t do this?¡± She cried, hoping Sebastian would juste into the picture and save her from this, his undeniably handsome face just kept recurring on her head making her cry the more, it felt like she was leaving him and she didn¡¯t want to leave him just yet. She felt so dirty that another man wasying his hands on her, it was like she¡¯s already entitled to Sebastian and no other man can ever touch her, she was his and his only. Even though they¡¯ve not taken their rtionship to the next level, it still felt like cheating and it ached her heart so much. She didn¡¯t know why she felt this pain, but she was certain for one thing, she didn¡¯t want to leave Sebastian and her heart yearned and ached for him. Adia cried loudly on realizing something, she had grown to love him, his Cold and aloofness, it all felt so cool to her, and his Cold and dangerous self only made her admire him more. She has feelings for Sebastian, but why now? why is everything urring to her now? ¡°Pl.. eas. e, lo. rd s.. ave me? She stuttered crying loudly, as the Lord heard her prayers. Just as the man was about to reach for her in between, the door sprang open as another tall figure came in a haste, ¡°Fuck, Brandon, what are you doing?¡± The man asked in horror, as the other man called Brandon retracted quickly from Adia, as Adia stumbled backwards crying at the top of her voice. SHOCKED ¡°What do you think you¡¯re doing?¡± The man who just arrived asked in horror, ¡°What is it Ken, I was just having fun¡± Brandon grunted angrily, ¡°With a pregnant woman?¡± ¡°Does it matter, the madam is going to kill her anyways, what¡¯s the use of wasting such an ethereal beauty¡± Brandon praised looking at Adia¡¯s exposed legs lustfully, he just wanted to m her here, right now. ¡°Well she¡¯s off limits, go fuck somewhere else¡± ken said, ¡°Come on dude, you can join me too, aren¡¯t you curious to have a taste of what the almighty Sebastian is feasting on, but mann, he got a good eye, such a sexydy¡± Brandon eximed as Adia tightened her arms wrapped around her chest, sobbing at the same time thankful to the whatever Ken that stopped that Dog a while ago, thank goodness he didn¡¯t seed, if he had she would have just died, Adia thought breaking interested another round of Fresh tears. ¡± Get a hold of your list and let¡¯s head out, the madame called, she¡¯ll be here tomorrow,e on¡± ken beckoned to Brandon who hesitated before leaving the room with Ken. ***** The sound of shattering sses was heard as Sebastian flung a ceramic vase straight to the wall, the news he¡¯s hearing is not what he expected at all. ¡± Kate has nor being in this fucking town for three days now, doesn¡¯t mean she can¡¯t do any harm, she has followers around just like everyone of us, I¡¯m certain she¡¯s behind all of this, and I promise to ughter her, once I get a hold of her¡± Sebastian swore angrily, there was currently no joy current in him, all he felt was anger and the drive to go on a Killing spree. ¡± Sir I¡¯m so¡­.¡± ¡°Just your damned mouth and say no more words unless you wanna lose that tongue of yours¡¯ ¡® Sebastian growled angrily at Ma, as his voice thundered in the whole building. ¡°You all are so ipetent, make sure to search every nook and cranny of north California, Adia must be found¡± he said again as Ma stood tall, heads up. ¡°Yes sir, I promise not to disappoint you this time¡± he uttered with a note of finality as he left to lead his men on the search patrol. ¡± Take it easy Sebastian,¡± Arion said softly, but that was the wrong thing to say at the moment as the look he got from Sebastian was enough to make any man melt, ¡± And what is he doing here?¡± Arion queried, shooting a re at Logan. ¡± Come on, that¡¯s not a way to talk to a brother you¡¯ve not met for long, seriously, be nice¡± Logan tsk, as Arion only gave him a hard look. ¡± Fuck off¡± ¡°What do you have, spill?¡±Sebastian questioned Logan who reportedly said he got a clue, ¡°I had my men follow up the car that was used in abducting her, they were just two men in the car, and the car was stopped just along the outskirts of the door, close to the woods, and my theory, the person behind this is a vampire¡± Logan stated.C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org ¡± So what are you waiting for, send your men to search around there¡± Arion chimed in, ¡± No need I¡¯ll do that myself¡± Sebastian muttered as Arion turned to face him. ¡°I¡¯ll tag along¡± ¡°Me too¡± Logan added, .. .. . Adia sat close to the door waiting for the next person that woulde in, she barely sleptst night as the night was filled with terrors, scary nightmares and lots of mosquitoes. She¡¯s not had food nor water since yesterday, she looked messy as she was covered in dust and she reeked of sweat, but that was the least of her problems now, her only problem was her baby, she wanted nothing to happen to it. ¡± Don¡¯t worry, mummy promises to prote.. ct you, I¡¯ll make sure no harmes to you before your father fin¡­ds us, he¡¯s never gonna allow is suffer, h.. e¡¯lle and sav.. e us¡± Adia cried rubbing her stomach softly, it was as if her child was her onlyforter now and she felt Less alone. ¡± Somebody help¡± Adia cried, not able to believe she actually spent a night here, Sebastian should have found her already, or is he so pissed at her, that he had decided to abandon her here and let her die. What if he really abandons her and nevere to save her, ¡°Somebody helped¡± Adia cried with a croaky voice, she was so thirsty that it hurt each time she spoke, ¡°Seb, save me from this, ¡± she wailed loudly. The door made a creaked sound as he worst nightmare walked in, ¡°You spent the whole night crying, aren¡¯t you tired, save your strength, no one¡¯sing¡± Brandon said as he lifted Adia up from the ground. ¡± Such a waste¡± he muttered looking, staring lustfully at Adia. ¡± Come on save your tears¡± he said, cing his hoarse thumb on Adia¡¯s face to wipe her tears, but she spat on him, making him redraw. ¡± Hmm, even your saliva tastes Marvelous, do you mind for a quickie, I can¡¯t wait totch me tongue on your lovely juices¡± he winked at Adia, ¡± Over my dead body¡± she said softly, but enough for him to hear as she looked at him with disgust. ¡°Anyways the madame wants to meet you, today¡¯s yourst day on earth, too bad I won¡¯t be able to taste from your honeypot¡± he said, dragging a weak Adia out of the room, as he led her out of the house. Adia couldn¡¯t help but wonder who the madame was, is it Lana Rhoades, but they made a deal days ago, why would she do this, ¡°Lord save me¡± she prayed silently, walking weakly behind Brandon who held her wrists, she was barefooted as she lost her shoes during the struggle, the scorching sun only made things worse as the base of her feet was hurting so much. ¡°Where¡¯s she?¡± Brandon inquired about the madame as they got to where Ken stood. ¡°Waiting,¡± ¡°You can deliver her¡± Brandon said handing Adia over to Ken, ¡°Did you feed her yet?¡± Ken asked, ¡°Nah¡± ¡°Give her some water¡± Ken ordered as Brandon reluctantly agreed. ¡°Here¡± he said giving a cup to Adia who looked at it suspiciously, ¡°It¡¯s not poisoned, we¡¯re not killing you, at least not now, drink up, or he can as well return it¡± ken snapped, it looked as if he was a busy man and was dedicated to his job. Adia hesitantly grabbed the cup from Brandon drinking it in one go, she was so thirsty that she could control herself and thankfully it did little good as she felt a little refreshed, as a new wave of strength came filled her. ¡°Walk¡± Ken said as he dragged her away. ¡°Madame we¡¯re here¡± he announced, making Adia fall on her knees. ¡°Well well well, who do we have here?¡± Kate said with contempt, as Adia¡¯s present state only filled her with lots of Joy. ¡°You¡­¡± Adia breathed out, unable to believe her eyes. CAN鈥橳 BE COMPELLED To Adia it was as if she was in a turmoil, she couldn¡¯t just believe everything unfolding in front of her, she¡¯s only met this woman twice and never did anything to upset her, why is she doing all this, and why is it Evans Montenero sister of a people. ¡°Miss me?¡± Kate asked walking up to Adia as she made her stand on her feet. ¡°I feel so delighted, like, I wish Sebastian could see the state his wonderful Adia is in right now, don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll save him the gist¡± Kate stated bursting into a loudugh. ¡°Why are you doing this, what have I done to deserve this, what¡¯s My crime?¡± Adia asked sobbing, she¡¯s never done anything to hurt this woman. ¡°What you have done?¡± Kate repeated with sarcasm. ¡°Everything!!¡± She yelled loudly at Adia¡¯s face. ¡°Everything, for ever thinking you can get in my way, for ever thinking you can reap where you did not sow, I worked for hundreds of years to get here, and you think you can just walk in pregnant for Sebastian, he¡¯s mine¡± Kate drawled out as Adia looked at her speechless. ¡± Hund.. reds of year.. s¡± she stammered, so this Kate of a woman has really run mad. ¡°Oh, Incase you don¡¯t know, you¡¯ve been living with monsters, and the most interesting part of it is that you¡¯re carrying two in you, Adia¡± Kate phrased out only confusing Adia the more. ¡± Mo.. nste. rs¡± ¡°Yes Adia, Sebastian, his brothers, Rowan, and me, we are all vampires, cold blooded, blood suckers, have you seen why Sebastian and you can never be together, you guys are totally different, he¡¯s meant for me ande alone¡± Kate said as Adia froze. What the hell is Kate talking about, who the hell are vampires, what the hell are vampires? And Sebastian and the rest are one of them? Adia didn¡¯t really know what to think, how did she get involved with aad woman, vampires are all myths, she¡¯s so insane that she thinks she¡¯s a vampire now, Vampires don¡¯t fucking exist, Adia thought, ¡± Please I promise to get away from Sebastian as far as possible, please spare my child, have some humanity¡± Adia pleaded, holding Kate¡¯s hand hoping she just let her go. ¡± I wish I could but vampires have no humanity, and Sebastian will find a way to get you back and then make sure I never get to you, the only solution is to kill you and those bastards you¡¯re carrying¡± Kate said sarcastically, ¡± But it¡¯s not my fault all this happened, this pregnancy was all an ident, it just happened and I couldn¡¯t abort the baby, you still have a chance with Sebastian, just talk it all out with him¡± Adia pleaded, trying to pacify Kate. ¡°That¡¯s what you don¡¯t understand, Sebastian can never let you go, not with this face, ¡± Kate exined, pped Adia across the cheeks in anger. ¡°What¡¯s wrong with my face!!,¡± Adia yelled, ignoring the sharp pain she felt. ¡°You look just like her, but you can¡¯t be her, because I killed her, I watched her die and buried her myself¡± Kate utterly said with certainty like a person who had lost their mind. ¡± Who¡¯s that?¡± Adia asked, ¡± Aisling, Sebastian¡¯s one true love, I¡¯m sure you¡¯ve heard of her, strangely, you look just like her, and that¡¯s the reason Sebastian will never let you go, you remind him of her, thedy he loved¡± Kate muttered sadly. ¡± And how¡¯s any of that my fault?¡± ¡± Bringing in this face is nothing but a crime, I was so close to getting him, then you came, ruining my ns, I¡¯ll make sure I kill you myself¡± ¡°You wouldn¡¯t dare kill Sebastian¡¯s child, he¡¯d only hate you forever¡± Adia spat in fright, seems like this Katedy is a really dangerous one. ¡°Really, let¡¯s try, I killed Aisling once, I can kill you again, and guess what, Aisling was my best friend, she thought I loved her¡± Kate expressed bursting into another round ofughter, herughter really irked Adia. ¡°Whatever, chit chat¡¯s over, time to get to the business of today¡± she said yanking Adia¡¯s shoulders as she looked at her straight in the eyeball, ¡°Here take this knife,¡± she said, cing a knife on Adia¡¯s hands. ¡°Stab yourself on your thighs twenty times and bleed yourself out¡± shepelled as Adia stared inly at her, She couldn¡¯t exin why she¡¯s doing all this, but one thing is certain, she¡¯s meant to do whatever Kate said, turning around, she surveyed her surroundings, they¡¯re currently in the woods, in the middle of nowhere, how would Sebastian ever find her, they¡¯re mostly surrounded by trees, escaping will be really hard, how dies Kate expect her to stab herself twenty times, holding the knife tightly, she got ready flee as she ran as fast as her legs can carry her. Kate stared at Adia with shock, howe herpulsion didn¡¯t work, she didn¡¯t think this through, Sebastian must have been feeding her with ginger water, so she could resistpulsion. ¡°What a smart move,¡± Kate smirked as she leaped awaynding in front of Adia restricting her movements. ¡°Haaaa!!!!¡± Adia eximed in shock as Katended in front of her, ¡°How did you, how¡­did¡­¡± Adia was unable toplete her statement, how did Kate catch up with her so quickly, a d the speed she used, all of Adia¡¯s hair literally stood out, ¡°Did you miss the part when I mentioned about being a vampire, this is one of the gifts dear, speed¡± Kate scoffed loudly, ¡°Now I have something more important to work on, ken get me the ropes¡± Kate Requested as ken delivered the ropes. Kate pushed Adia down to the ground roughly, as she grabbed her two legs which she tied together by her ankle,N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. ¡± What are you doing?¡± Adia asked terrified, ¡± Draining you off ginger water, so mypulsion can work on you¡± Kate muttered, collecting the knife from Adia, as she moved to Adia¡¯s wrist, slitting it. ¡± Ahh¡± Adia cried in pains as blood flowed from her wrist, ¡± Please why are you doing this to me¡± Adia begged sobbing, ¡± Because of love¡± came Kate¡¯s answer as she grabbed the other end of the rope she used in tying Adia up. ¡± Get ready for a ride baby girl,¡± She mumbled with a smile as she dragged the rope, dragging Adia in the process as Adia cried in pains as her back hit the ground as Kate dragged her, ignoring her screams, Adia cried loudly, she¡¯s being tortured for what she knows about, with blood flowing from her wrists, her being dragged on the floor like a ve who¡¯s going for execution, can her life get any worse. ¡°Seb¡± Adia cried softly as her consciousness left her slowly. UNWANTED VISITORS Adia gasped out loudly as something cold shed on her, She sat up in an instant, gasping for breath only to see a smiling Kate standing on front of her holding a bucket, ¡°Time to wake up sleeping beauty, I thought you were gonna sleep forever¡± Kate said flinging the bucket she was holding away, ¡°Why are you doing this?¡± Adia asked sadly with a croaked voice, as the hot sun hit her eyes, she¡¯s been starved for close to two days now and Sebastian hasn¡¯t even found her, is he even looking? Adia looked at her body covered in mud , she was wet now, dirty, her hair stinks, her clothes tattered and torn from all the incessant dragging on the floor, her back hurts so much, she was sure there were already lots of bruises there, not to talk of her wrist that Kate split, the wound was still fresh with dried blood smeared around it, she can catch up an infection if it¡¯s not treated. ¡°Howe I keep saying the same thing over and over again, I¡¯m doing this because I hate you and Sebastian loves you¡± Kate grunted as she came to squat in front of Adia. ¡°Save your strength, he doesn¡¯t love me, he only cares about the baby I¡¯m carrying¡± Adia breathed out weakly. ¡°You wish, which man wouldn¡¯t fall for you, you¡¯re a seductress¡± Kate said with deceit as Adia chuckled. ¡± You¡¯re not even confident about yourself, it¡¯s not my fault God made me pretty¡± ¡°Oh shut up, now let¡¯s get to business, have this¡± Kate said, cing a knife yet again into Adia¡¯s hand. ¡°Pierce it through your heart,¡± shepelled but Adia just stared at her. ¡°I can do that, I don¡¯t want to die¡± Adia cried softly, she literally had no strength left in her. ¡°Woah it¡¯s not still working, not enough draining i see, ¡± Kate said, collecting the knife from Adia, as she grabbed her other wrist splitting it up, as Adia gave out a shrill cry. ¡°Come here¡± she said carrying Adia up, ¡°This would hurt, and me Sebastian in heaven for feeding you with ginger water, if not, your death would have been made easy¡± Kate said mming Adia¡¯s head on a nearby tree, enough not to make her pass out. .. . .. .. ¡°Did you hear that right?¡± Sebastian asked as they all stopped in their tracks, ¡± That sounded like Adia,¡± Evans confessed, he decided toe with them and kill his sister personally if anything ever happens to Adia. They¡¯re siblings, good, but that never meant he would condone all her mischiefs. ¡°My guts tell me she¡¯s around here, and I also perceive the strong smell of blood¡± Logan said sniffing around. ¡°Adia too, she¡¯s here, follow me¡± Sebastian uttered, the smell was faint but was strong enough for him to know it¡¯s Adia¡¯s. .. . .. ¡°This happened a few minutes ago, the blood¡¯s still fresh,¡± Arion said, using his fingers to touch the blood sprawled on the ground. ¡± Someone was here and someone¡¯s still here,¡± Sebastian said, it was clearly obvious that someone was here, and they¡¯re still people around, he could feel it. Sebastian knew the blood around was Adia¡¯s, thinking about it only made his blood boil, thinking about the kind of suffering Adia must be going through was totally heartbreaking, he¡¯s gonna give whoever is responsible a slow and painful death, they¡¯ll regret ever crossing his path. ¡°Let¡¯s split up¡± Evans proposed, ¡°They¡¯re still around somewhere, Logane with me, we¡¯ll go this way, Sebastian and Arion can take the other route¡± Evans said as he leaped away with Logan. ¡± Let¡¯s go¡± Arion motioned, but Sebastian stood as if sensing something. ¡± What¡¯s up?¡± ¡± Someone¡¯s still here¡± Sebastian said through gritted teeth walking over to a huge tree as he dragged Ken out. ¡± Bastard!!¡± He cursed loudly, ¡± You think you can hide From me,¡± he said,nding a huge punch on Ken, breaking his nose in the process. ¡± Who are yo.. u?¡± Ken stuttered trying to free himself from Sebastian¡¯s hold. ¡°Shut up and don¡¯t move, ¡± Sebastianpelled as Ken immediately stood still, twilight vampires canpel the usual vampires. ¡°Who sent you?¡± He asked, ¡°The madame,¡± Ken answered truthfully. ¡°And who¡¯s the damn madam ?¡± Sebastian growled,nding another punch. ¡°Kate¡± ¡°Where¡¯s Kate now?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t know, she dragged Adia away, I have no idea where she took her too¡± ¡°Which direction did they go,?¡± Sebastian questioned, relieved at least to know Adia is still alive. ¡°There¡± Ken answered, pointing to a direction in the woods. ¡°Nonsense,¡± Sebastian grunted, sinking his hands into Ken¡¯s chest, ripping his heart out. ¡°Look who I found,¡± Ace said, dragging Brandon, who was alreadypelled not to make a sound out. ¡°And guess what? He told me one hell of a story, you wouldn¡¯t want to hear it though, you¡¯ll only kill him over and over again¡± Arion tsk, referring to when Brandon toyed with Adia. ¡°Did you find anything useful?¡± ¡°Nah¡± ¡°Kill him¡± cane Sebastian concise words and the next second, Brandon dropped dead on the floor. ¡°What did he say?¡± ¡°Nothing much, just that he yed with their guest and how lovely she is,¡± Ace replied trying to rile Sebastian up, it¡¯s really fun to see him angry. ¡°What did you say?¡± Sebastian asked horrified, How dare that bastardy his filthy hands on Adia. He should have gotten the most painful death ever. ¡± Look, let¡¯s find Adia first¡± Arion added. Sebastian grunted before turning to the direction ken pointed out to, ¡°They¡¯re body tracks,¡± Arion mentioned, ¡°I¡¯ll seriously kill Kate¡± Sebastian swore, Adia has clearly been suffering. ¡°Let¡¯s go¡± .. .. . Adia gasped for breath as Kate kept draining her off her blood. ¡°Don¡¯t do this¡± Adia pleaded, she looked so pale now, there¡¯s no blood left in her any longer. ¡°Time to die Adia¡± ¡± Seb, ¡± Adia called weakly resting on a nearby tree. ¡°Sebastian¡¯s noting, he¡¯s abandoned you and those bastards you call children ¡± Kate uttered with a high note of sarcasm. Seeing Adia in pain really made her feel good, it felt nice to see her suffer. ¡°Sebastian¡­¡± Adia called again weakly, as she coughed out dryly. ¡°He¡¯s noting, baby girl,¡± Kate whispered with a wide smile, picking up the knife, ready to tear open another part of Adia¡¯s body. ¡°Seb, please save me,¡± Adia said weakly, crying softly. ¡°He¡¯s not¡­.¡± Kate was interrupted by a loud bang as her back hit the tree bark with force, and even a few branches and trees fell on the floor.C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org ¡°Bloody hell¡± Kate cursed in defeat, ring at the newly arrived, unwanted visitors. NOT HEALING Sebastian growled in anger as he continuously smashed Kate¡¯s head of a tree bark, blood sprawling all over the ce. The state Adia was in now really broke his heart, and each time he saw her, he got even more angry, she looked weak and pale, Has Kate been draining the off blood, Sebastian face wore a terrified look as he increased the pressure he used in smashing her head against the tree, as the tree broke into two, the upper side copsing on the floor, He shed to the next tree, repeating the same thing, he¡¯d gonna drain her off blood till she bes dessicated. She must have probably been trying topel Adia, and when thepulsion did not work, she resorted to getting the ginger water water off Adia¡¯s system, and there¡¯s no fucking thing there, she¡¯s been doing all that for nothing. He has never fed Adia with ginger water so she can resistpulsion, he never saw the news for that, the truth is that Adia can¡¯t bepelled for some strange reasons. ¡°How dare you?¡± His voice thundered, as Kate beganughing like a person who has lost her mind. ¡°So you do love her right?, You would nevere running for me like an enraged bull¡± Kate snickered stillughing historically, ¡± I will never, I onlye running to kill you over and over again, to show how much I detests you,¡± Sebastian breathed out, running ps continuously across her face. ¡°Why can¡¯t you love me Sebastian, my heart, my body, yearns for you, i love you¡± Kate proposed as tears flowed down her cheeks,Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. So she can cry huhhh, Sebastian scoffed, eyeing her in disgust. ¡°It¡¯s all nothing but obsession Kate, you can never hurt the person you love, and you¡¯ve hurt me more than once, the first you took Aisling away, and now this,¡± he phrased, pointing at Adia who rested on the tree weakly, ¡± But guess what Kate, I¡¯ll not let history repeat itself, just Know you can never hurt Adia ever again, I¡¯ll always be there to protect her¡± Sebastian added, still pping her across her face, the moment her wounds healed up, he reopened them with a new round of ps. ¡± Just ept my love, Sebastian, I will go anything for you¡± Kate pleaded, ¡± Never¡± Sebastian grunted throwing her carelessly on the floor, he wished he could just end her life right now, but that will only result in a feud between the provinces of Britaris, because Kate is one of the elites, a Montenero. ¡± I promise, the next time you every a finger on Adia, I¡¯ll kill you with my bare hands, damn the consequences, Arion¡± he called, as Arion who¡¯s been standing on top of a tree jumped down, ¡°Do to her as you wish, I¡¯ll take Adia out of here¡± Sebastian said as Arion broke into a wide smile. ¡± With pleasure¡± he smirked as he held Kate roughly, torturing people is his best thing and he¡¯d be more than honored to do that to Kate, ¡± Come here, I brought a little gift,¡± he said, bringing out a small vial from his back pocket, he came really prepared for this. Picking up the ropes Kate used to tie Adia, as he poured the liquid out from the vial into the ropes, the vial contained ginger water. Carefully and steadily, he tied the rope around Kate¡¯s ankle as she screamed in pain. Other than the fact that Ginger water helped humans resistpulsion, it also served as vampires weaknesses, it tends to burn them a lot, it was like torture for any vampire who came in contact with it. Arion couldn¡¯t help but smile widely, seeing Kate scream out, ¡°It¡¯s gonna be a rough ride, hold tight¡± he uttered, speeding off, dragging Kate along on the floor, he just did to her, what she did to Adia, the only difference now was that he moved in great speed, and Kate is also in pains because of the ginger water, she¡¯ll never heal on time. ¡°Seb¡­.¡± Adia gasped weakly in relief the moment their eyes met. ¡°You came,¡± she whispered as her headnded on Sebastian¡¯s chest effortlessly. ¡± I¡¯ll alwayse, did you think I¡¯d leave you to suffer, you don¡¯t deserve that Adia, ¡± he whispered back to her ears, stroking her back softly. ¡°Here,¡± he muttered to her sinking his fangs into his wrists to make an injury as blood flowed from it, ¡°Drink,¡± he said, cing his wrist on her mouth. ¡°What¡¯s this?¡± Adia asked in soft tones, ¡°My blood, it¡¯ll heal you¡± he said, ¡°So you¡¯re really a vampire,¡± Adia chuckled as she lifted her head slowly, looking him straight in the eyes as she cried, ¡°Why??¡± ¡°I¡¯ll exin all this to youter, but first, your life matters a lot, drink¡± he said, cing his wrist back on her mouth, as she slipped from it slowly, as she twisted her face in disgust. ¡± How do you feel?¡± Sebastian asked anxiously holding her by her shoulders, ¡± I feel, I feel, goo¡­ bad..¡± In the next second Adia started throwing up blood, all the blood she ingested, even some of her own. ¡°Adia, Adia¡± Sebastian called out as he shook her violently, she was so weightless, almost like a piece of paper, Kate must suffer dearly for this. ¡°Adia!!¡± He eximed in horror as she continued vomiting the blood out, everywhere now reeked of nothing but the smell of blood, he and Adia were already covered in blood, but that was not his problem now, why is Adia not healing. Vampire blood serves as a healing potion to humans, it can heal any form of injury within seconds. But why was Adia¡¯s body rejecting it, because the injuries were still visible on her body, first was thepulsion, now it¡¯s this, her body¡¯s not epting vampire blood. ¡°Seb, please save my child¡± Adia begged as she felt life slowly leaving her. ¡°Please..¡± she cried, losing her consciousness slowly. ¡°Adia,¡± Sebastian called, shaking her, but it seemed she was no longer conscious. He moved his hands to her heart, trying to feel her pulse. Her heart was still beating, but slowly and weakly, there¡¯s still a chance to save her. He bundled her up in his arms, leaping away as fast as he could. 76 ¡°What are you saying, all of this is unexinable?¡± Sebastian questioned staring nkly at Evans. ¡°She¡¯s not a witch Sebastian, I¡¯ve tried everything I know, but couldn¡¯t find any magic,¡± Evans exined as they both looked at Adia who was lying unconsciously on the bed, an IV fixed on her. She¡¯s been there for two days now. ¡± Then why is she not waking up?¡± ¡°She¡¯s fine Sebastian, all her internal organs are in good working condition, she¡¯ll just need time to recuperate, she¡¯s probably still in shock about what happened¡± Evans exined regarding the fact that Adia knows about the existence of vampires now. ¡± Alright then¡±N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. ¡± I¡¯ve administered all the drugs, make sure she takes them once she wakes up, and this,¡± Evans said, giving him an ointment. ¡± Just apply it on all her wounds, they¡¯ll be gone before you know it, ¡± Evans added, since vampire blood can¡¯t heal her, so he came up with another alternative. It pained him a lot knowing his sister did this to Adia, there¡¯s no justification or whatsoever for what Kate did, all he knows is that she hurt Adia and she¡¯s gonna pay ording to her sins. ¡°I¡¯ll see you man,¡± Evans said, patting Sebastian¡¯s shoulders before walking away. Sebastian stood watching Adia, she really didn¡¯t deserve all this, it¡¯s only a miracle she and the babies made it out alive, considering how vulnerable she is, she really fought well to stay alive, many people especially people in her state would have given up, he took onest look at her before leaving the ce. ***** Adia squirmed as she heard people speaking in hushed tones, Her eyes immediately sprang open, only for her to see the high ceilings of her bedroom, I¡¯m alive, she thought, looking around, and discovered that she was fixed on a drip, with Bandages wrapped around both of her wrists and on her head, everything that happened to her reyed on her head, Sebastian came for her, he didn¡¯t let her die in the hands of Kate. And she also found something shocking, Adia would have thought it was all a dream, the fangs, the way they leaped around and the speed they used in moving around, if not for the pains she was feeling. The bandages on her wrists was enough evidence to know that all these things really happened to her, the disgusting Brandon and how he touched her, Adia felt bile forming at the depths of her stomach, when she remembered that scene. Kate and her revtions, how she was endlessly tortured, how Sebastian mmed Kate¡¯s head countless times on a tree, but she didn¡¯t even flinch, the ps he gave here, that were enough to remove a person¡¯s tooth, when he grew fangs and fed her his blood, how she vomited it all out, it was all real, Vampires are real. Adia shuddered at the thought of that, she¡¯s been living with blood suckers all her life, Adia didn¡¯t even know how to react to this, she always as utterly speechless, ¡°Co.. ra¡± she called dryly at Cora who was sitting at the end of the room with Monica beside her. ¡°Adia!!!¡± Cora eximed happily as she rushed to Adia. ¡°Ma¡¯am¡± Monica called, following after cora. ¡± Oh my god you¡¯re alive¡± Cora gasped, engulfing Adia In a tight hug as Adia winced in pains. ¡± I¡¯m so sorry, I got carried away, I thought I would never see you again¡± cora squealed hugging Adia again, ¡± Ma¡¯am you¡¯re awake¡± Monica said emotionally, her eyes brimming with tears. ¡°I.. I¡± Adia stammered, her throat really hurts, she has not had water for God knows how long. ¡°Get some water, quickly ¡± Cora motioned as Monica rushed to get a cup of water from the jug lying at the bedside, before handing it over to Adia. ¡°Thanks¡± Adia muttered gratefully, feeling better than before, ¡± I¡¯ve been waiting for you to wake up, I never left your side Adia, it¡¯s all my fault this happened to you, I¡¯m so sorry¡± Cora apologized, little drops of tears falling from her eyes. ¡± How many days have I been out?¡± ¡± Two days, and these two days have been the most darkest of days here¡± Monica responded, no one even dared smile in the house, everything was done with utmost seriousness, the madame of the house was battling for her life, the master was very angry, and could erupt anytime because of the wife¡¯s condition, and she just lost her only sister, her twin. ¡± My goodness,¡± Adia eximed, moving her hands to her tummy as she grasped it. ¡± My baby..¡± ¡± They¡¯re fine, Sebastian made sure nothing happened to them,¡± Cora informed happily, ¡± Them..¡± Adia repeated, ¡± Yes them, you¡¯re carrying twins Adia!!¡± Cora squealed with joy, engulfing her in another hug. ¡± I¡¯m so happy for you,¡± Cora said, pecking Adia¡¯s forehead. ¡± Twins..¡± Adia stuttered in disbelief as she broke into a smile caressing her stomach. ¡°Yes ma¡¯am, congrattions¡± Monica said smiling widely, this news was enough time to make her happy, Adia was doing fine. ¡± You need to see how worried Sebastian was?¡± Cora said chuckling, ¡°Where¡¯s Sebastian?¡± Adia suddenly asked, she needed to speak to him at this moment. She deserves a good exnation for all this. If Sebastian is a vampire, does that mean she¡¯s also carrying vampire children in her womb. ¡°Sebastian, he left few hours ago, he had to take care of something¡± Cora answered, ¡°I need to speak with him¡± Adia said with a note of urgency in her voice, ¡°Alright then, I¡¯ll send for him immediately, I know he¡¯lle running once he hears you¡¯re awake¡± Cora said picking up her phone as she walked out of the room. ¡°But¡­¡± Adia began as Monica stopped her from saying anything further, ¡°Have a good rest first, then we¡¯ll talk¡­¡±Monica said, helping hery back on the bed. ¡± Let me see your left hand,¡± Adia muttered grabbing Monica¡¯s hand before she could shift it backwards. ¡°Weeks ago, you had a Bandage around your hands, howe they¡¯re no longer here,?¡± Adia asked in horror as Kate¡¯s words hit her, that she¡¯s living with vampires under her roof, There¡¯s no way Monica would have healed this fast, Adia didn¡¯t pay enough attention to this seeing she started working, but now everything was beginning to make sense, ¡°Are you a vampire too,?¡± Adia asked as Monica froze, gulping down nervously. 77 ¡°Answer my questions for God¡¯s sake¡± Adia yelled seeing Monica has been keeping her quiet for too long and her silence only meant one thing, she¡¯s really a vampire. But howe vampires exist, they¡¯re just myths told in stories, how can she be living with dozens of them under the same roof. ¡°I just can¡¯t believe this,¡± Adia gasped out in shock, it sounded unbelievable. ¡°Madam,¡± ¡°Leave,¡± Adia said softly, right now she needs to clear her head. ¡± But ma¡¯am,¡± Monica called, who in the world told Adia about the existence of vampires. ¡± Get out and get Sebastian,¡± this time Adia yelled at the top of her voice, so they¡¯ve all been lying to her all this while, ¡± Madam,¡± ¡± I said get out,¡± Adia screamed as Monica quickly left the room. ¡± Was that really necessary,¡± someone said from the door, few minutes after Monica left the room, Adia breathed in relief the moment she saw Sebastian. ¡± We need to talk,¡± she said as he walked in, ¡± How are you doing?¡± He asked ignoring what she said, as Adia wondered why he looks so calm, knowing his real Identity has been revealed. ¡± Fine not fine, you have to exin all of this to me, Sebastian, how are you a vampire?¡± Adia asked, it was still unbelievable, but she had already witnessed Kate run with immeasurable speed, and also saw Sebastian¡¯s eyes change colors, so there¡¯s no justification whatsoever for this. ¡°Exin the fact that I¡¯m a vampire, or what?¡± He questioned keeping a stoic face, ¡°You,¡± Adia grunted standing up on her feet as she walked to where he was standing in front of him. ¡°How could you lie to me?¡± She said, hitting him by his shoulder. ¡°What was I supposed to do, walk up to you and say hey Adia, I¡¯m a vampire and feed on human blood, you¡¯ll not evenst a minute with me, nor will you have a peace of mind knowing you live with vampires or is pregnant for one, you¡¯ll never be at peace Adia,¡± he stated with a serious expression, since things did not go as he nned, there¡¯s nothing more to hide, she just have to know the truth, ept it, abd learn to live with it. ¡± Did I ever tell you that I wouldn¡¯t be able to bear that fact?, Or do you see me freaking out, I¡¯m perfectly fine, why did you all lie to me?¡± She asked, hitting him by his shoulders for the second time again. ¡± Because you¡¯ll never be able to live with me believe it or not, you¡¯re just here because of the circumstances you find yourself Adia, trust me,¡± he added, that¡¯s just the in truth in this, no normal person will not freak out when he or she finds out about vampires, they can even go mad concerning that. ¡°And why would I do that? Why are you always trying to push me away, Sebastian?¡± She asked in a pained voice. ¡°Because you were never meant to be here Adia, this life is not for you, what don¡¯t you get it?¡± He asked, he just came here to exin things to her. ¡°You know what?¡± Adia began looking him in the eyes, those ethereal gray eyes that seemed to take her breath away. ¡°When I was in custody of that mad woman, that obsessed ex of your¡­¡±Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. ¡± Kate was never my ex,¡± he corrected, cutting Adia Short. ¡± When I was in her custody, I found out about something, something I will never think of to happen to me, something that I always hated the thought of it, that something is just like an abyss, once you delved into it there¡¯s no going back and each time I try going back, I just keeping falling and falling deeper, and that something is you Sebastian, I think I¡¯ve fallen in love with you, it¡¯s like I fell too much and I can¡¯t control my feelings at all,¡± Adia confessed still holding his gaze, it just happened, the feelings just came. ¡± Adia,¡± Sebastian called, speechless, when did this conversation turn into a confession, he just came to clear this up. ¡± And I can¡¯t let go off my feelings Sebastian, no matter how hard I try, they just keeping and I¡¯vee to ept and live with it, damn the consequences, I don¡¯t care if you¡¯re a vampire, I don¡¯t fucking care if you hate me, o don¡¯t fucking care if you smash my head against a wall, all I care about now is the fact that I love you and muste to leave with that,¡± Adia stated still looking at him in the eyes, yes she has fallen for this man, she didn¡¯t know how it happened bit the feelings just came, she just loves everything about him, his Coldness, his reserved self, this expressionless handsome face, she hase to love him. ¡°Adia you can¡¯t be serious, you have to let the feelings go, there can never be a us,¡± Sebastian uttered, all he wished for now, was to save her from her impending death, she has just less than five months to live now, and she¡¯s gonna live these month in pain and suffering, his only wish now is to save her and let her go, because she can never be entangled with vampires, they bring nothing but doom and pains. ¡°I don¡¯t care, if you want to shout at me, if you want to tell me harsh words Sebastian, I¡¯m already used to that,¡± Adia said, she¡¯s not going to back down now, she¡¯s fallen too deep for him, more than she realizes. ¡°I¡¯ll make sure you love me back and reciprocate my feelings, I Know our contract states that I leave immediately I deliver, not only have I grown to love you, but also my children, I already feel so attached to them and the thought of leaving them soon breaks my heart,¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry Adia, I can make a few changes in the contract, you can alwayse and see the children after they are born,¡± ¡± But that¡¯s not what I want,¡± Adia stuttered, ¡± You have to want that Adia, don¡¯t you still get it, I¡¯m a vampire, a bloodsucker, a vampire, we¡¯re two different people, everything that happened was just a mistake, and that¡¯s what I¡¯m trying to correct, I don¡¯t even do humans, you guys are so weak and all, and trust me I hate weaknesses¡± ¡± I don¡¯t care at all, that¡¯s why I¡¯m going to be strong and not get angry and remain here with you,¡± Adia remained adamant as Sebastian stared nkly at her. What the hell did Kate feed her with?, He asked himself, because she doesn¡¯t sound like Ike Adia at all. 78 ¡°Why do you keep pushing me away Sebastian?¡± Adia asked in pains, ¡°Cause you were never meant to be here Adia, ¡± he said inly, ¡°I¡¯ll stand on my ground and fight for your love¡± Adia said with a note on finality, she¡¯s not just doing this for herself, but also for her unborn babies she want them both to grow with the love of a father and a mother, ¡°You know what Adia, do what you want, you can keep on obsessing over me or loving me like you im, do what you fucking want, but you know what never expect me to feel the same way for you, and trust me Adia, you¡¯ll be the one to get hurt at the end of the day,¡± Sebastian said angrily that¡¯s one of the things he hated so much about humans, they tend to act so stubborn. Adia just stood staring at him speechlessly, he¡¯s doing it, he¡¯s trying to make her change her mind, he¡¯s trying to make her hate him, but what he just can¡¯t seem to understand Is that the more he tries to push her away, the more she falls deeper for him. ¡°I¡¯m tired, I need some rest,¡± Adia blurted while walking to the bed. As she climbed in, she didn¡¯t want to talk about this issue again or Sebastian would just try to persuade her from her decisions. ¡°You can close the door behind you,¡± Adia added, shutting her eyes and pretending to fall asleep. ***** ¡°Ma¡¯am I¡¯m so sorry for hiding this from you, it¡¯s just that humans are not supposed to know about our existence,¡± Monica begged as Adia dryed her hair, ¡± I¡¯m not angry Monica, I¡¯ll juste to live with that fact and ept you all, I know it¡¯s gonna be real fun spending time with dozens of vampires,¡± Adia said with a smile as she dropped the hair dryer on the dressing table, she has decided to ept her fate, besides it has already happened, the deed has already been done, so there¡¯s no going back. ¡°Thank you so much,¡± Monica said happily, ¡± Besides I haven¡¯t seen Monique, where¡¯s she?¡± Adia asked, there are lots of people she¡¯ll actually want to meet, like Mickelson, she has not seen him for a long time now, what kind of vacation did he go for, and why is his vacation so long? Does Sebastian even grant breaks for his workers?, She asked herself curiously, ¡°Hmm, hmm¡± Monica coughed ufortably as Adia noticed her movements, ¡°Anything wrong?¡± ¡°Not really, well the thing is, um¡­¡± Monica stutters, not knowing how she¡¯s going to break the news of her sister¡¯s death to Adia, and the fact that Monique was actually plotting against her. ¡°What¡¯s the problem Monica, speak up,¡± ¡°Well she¡¯s dead¡± Monica broke the news, closing her eyes shut, as Adia gasped Loudly. ¡°Dead¡­how?¡± Adia asked in shock, ¡°Wel..¡± Monica began not even knowing how to begin, but she resorted to tell the truth, it¡¯s better she says the truth. ¡°It turns out she was plotting against you, that¡¯s why she approached you in the first ce, showing you the secret passage and all stuffs, do she could tail you and then tell master Sebastian that you¡¯re cheating on his and the rest, so she .. she¡­I¡­¡± Monica¡¯s voice broke feeling so bad and mad at herself, the fact Monique did something unforgivable won¡¯t change the fact that they¡¯re sisters and twins for that matter. ¡°Sebastian killed her right?¡± Adia asked, stating the obvious as Monica nodded slowly agreeing with Adia. ¡°I .. I¡¯m¡­so sorry, I don¡¯t know what to say¡­I,¡± Adia stammered trying to find the right words to say, so Monique is dead not only that she was killed by Sebastian. ¡± It¡¯s all okay now, I¡¯vee to live with and ept that, There¡¯s nothing I can do anymore,¡± ¡°What about your mother, Samantha?¡± Adia asked about the first kind woman she met when she first stepped foot into this house. ¡°My mother returned to Britaris, she feels it¡¯s better she remains there¡± Monica replied as Adia¡¯s face held a confused look. ¡°What¡¯s a Britaris?¡± ¡°It¡¯s like a city, for vampires, exclusive for vampires, that¡¯s where most vampires reside,¡± Monica informed Adia who looked shocked. ¡°There¡¯s actually a city for vampires??¡± Adia eximed in shock, there¡¯s really a lot of things for her to find out about this vampire stuff. ¡°Yes ma¡¯am,¡± ¡°Wow!!¡± ¡°Yeah, Britaris is divided into seven provinces, ruled by the seven twilight vampires, and sir Sebastian is one of them,¡± Monica exined,Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. ¡°Woah, but what¡¯s a twilight vampire?¡± ¡°I think it¡¯s best you ask sir Sebastian about everything you want to know about vampires, he¡¯s in the best position to tell you that, not me, I¡¯ve not really being to Britaris myself,¡± Monica said, her and her sister wet turned just when they returned from France, they were just little kids then and she¡¯s the she¡¯s been living here working as a servant, she has visited Britaris before, but that was when she was way younger, so there¡¯s really nothing she knows about that ce, just that it¡¯s a great ce to be. ¡°I¡¯m so sorry about Monique,¡± Adia sympathized, she knows how painful it is to lose a sister, she got into all of these, the pregnancy, the news about vampires, trouble with Kate, who¡¯s out seeking her life, because she wanted to save a sister, and she doesn¡¯t regret ever making that decision, she don¡¯t know if she would have been able to live without Addison, her life would have been practically over, so even If Monique conspired against her, she¡¯s still someone¡¯s sister and family. ¡°Don¡¯t worry ma¡¯am, I¡¯ll try and live with that,¡± Monica said feeling guilty still, because she knew all about Monique¡¯s ns, but kept quiet about it, what if her n had seeded and Adia eventually git into trouble or better still got killed, she would have never been able to forgive herself. ¡°And I think it¡¯s better you drop that, ma¡¯am, the name¡¯s Adia, we¡¯re way past that now,¡± Adia said, embracing Monica. ¡°Butt¡­¡± ¡± No buts, think of me as your sister now Monica, you¡¯re no longer a maid but my sister now, and that¡¯s the only way I can forgive you, so what do you say?, Hmm¡± ¡± I¡­¡­, thanks Adia, I¡¯ll never disappoint you,¡± she finally said after hesitating a bit as her face broke into a smile. 79 ¡°Make sure to take care of yourself, I¡¯ll call you often,¡± Cora said, engulfing Adia in a bear hug. ¡± I¡¯ll miss you a lot,¡± Adia pouted as they released each other. ¡± Come here Addison,¡± she said as Addison rushed to hug her. ¡± Look how big you¡¯ve grown now,¡± Adiamented, ruffling Addison¡¯s hair. ¡± I Know right, Aunt Cora and uncle Evans have been really taking good care of me,¡± Addison said as Cora shot her a re, why did she have to call Evans name, now Adia¡¯s gonna bombard her with questions. ¡°Uncle Evans¡­.?¡± Adia repeated confused, Which Evans is Addison talking about?, She wondered silently. ¡°Yes, uncle Evans, the doctor who treated you, he¡¯s been staying at our house for quite some time now,¡± Addison revealed, this time it was Adia¡¯s turn to re at Cora. ¡± We really have a lot to catch up on,¡± Adia mouthed to Cora who just grinned sheepishly. ¡± I¡¯ll see you Adia, we really have to hit the road now,e on Addison, let¡¯s go,¡± Cora chimed in, holding Addison by her wrists as they turned ready to leave, when Addison suddenly screamed excitedly. ¡± Uncle Sebastian,¡± she immediately released herself from Cora¡¯s hold as she ran to Sebastian who was speaking with Ma. ¡± Hey there little girl,¡± Sebastian said, turning to Addison who ran to hug him. ¡± Uncle Seb, I haven¡¯t seen you for a long time, I really missed you a lot,¡± Addison pouted as Sebastian picked her up from the ground. ¡°I¡¯ve been busy,¡± he replied, ¡°Busy with what?¡± ¡°Work,¡± Came his Short replies, ¡°What kind of work is that?¡± ¡°I work in apany,¡± ¡°Oh I see, why don¡¯t you take a day off from your boss ande see me, you don¡¯t even call¡± ¡°I don¡¯t need to take a day off,¡± ¡± Why?¡± ¡± Cause I¡¯m the boss,¡± ¡± Then why don¡¯t youe see me if you¡¯re the boss, you make the rules right,?¡± ¡± Yes, I make the rules, but that doesn¡¯t mean I behave as I like, I need to abide by my rules also, to set a good example for my employees,¡± Sebastian exined, ¡± I see..¡± Addison replied nodded her head slowly, ¡± Uncle Seb,¡± she called wrapping her hands around Sebastian¡¯s neck, ¡± Hmm¡± ¡± I would like to work for you when I grow up,¡± she said, ¡± Ohkay,¡± Sebastian replied as Ma just stood waiting for Sebastian as he conversed with the little girl which he learned is Adia¡¯s sister. ¡°Yehh, but won¡¯t you be old by then?¡± Addison asked meaningfully, ¡°I think so, that¡¯s why I¡¯ll hand over mypany to you, you¡¯ll be the new boss,¡± Sebastian said as Addison shouted happily. ¡°So I¡¯ll be the big boss,¡± ¡°Yes,¡± ¡°That would be so cool,¡± ¡°Uncle Sebastian,¡± Addison called, gaining Sebastian¡¯s attention again. ¡°Yes,¡± ¡°Why don¡¯t you smile?¡± She suddenly asked as Ma choked at her question. ¡°Uncle Evans smiles a lot, everytime hees to our house, but I¡¯ve never seen you smile,¡± Addison reasoned, ¡°It¡¯s not necessary,¡± ¡°But Adia said I have to smile at all times so I can always be pretty, if you don¡¯t smile you¡¯ll be so ugly and my sister will run away from here,¡± Addison said thest words whispering to his ear, but Ma heard it loud and clear and wanted to burst outughing at that moment, but managed topose himself. ¡°That¡¯s a lie Addison,¡± Sebastian began calling her name for the first time. ¡°Look at me for example, I¡¯m more good looking than all the boys in your whole school put together, right?¡± Sebastian asked as Addison nodded affirmatively. ¡°But you im you¡¯ve never really seen me smile, which I can agree to, but I¡¯ve always been good looking, I tend to get more handsome by the day, that¡¯s why Adia will never leave, she¡¯ll stick to me, you get that?¡± ¡°Yes,¡± ¡± Alright then, I think we¡¯re done with that issue then,e on, I¡¯ve got something for you¡± Sebastian said walking away with Addison still in his arms as Ma followed behind them. .. .. .Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. ¡± You¡¯ve got to be kidding me Cora, when did you and Evans be a couple?¡± Adia asked, excitement and anticipation bubbling up within her. ¡± We¡¯re not a couple Adia,¡± Cora pointed out, cause they¡¯re seriously not dating, just hooking up, they¡¯re just giving each other bedpany, that¡¯s all, nothing else. But how¡¯s she gonna tell Adia that she¡¯s hooking up with him, so she¡¯ll just have toe up with a reasonable excuse. ¡°Jokes apart Cora, tell me everything, when did you start feeling something for him, at the hospital?¡± Adia asked as Cora massaged her temple, right now, a lot is going through her head now and she really doesn¡¯t want to speak to anyone, even Adia. The fact that Adia now knows about vampires is really bothering her, it¡¯s bothering her deep down, because Adia still doesn¡¯t know about her being one, she begged everyone to refrain her name from the list of vampires around Adia. Adia might have forgiven the rest and has decided to move on, but her and Adia¡¯s case are literally different, they¡¯ve been friends for God knows how long, unlike the rest, Adia will never forgive her, because they¡¯re best friends and best friends are not meant to keep secrets from each other. ¡°It was just a night Adia, his car broke down and he needed a ce to crash, I was just being nice, that¡¯s all,¡± Cora said, that was the best lie to give now, she just hopes Adia buys her lie. ¡± But Addison said he¡¯s been visiting you guys frequently,¡± Adia said, confused. ¡± Addison is a kid Adia, you know how kids tend to b a lot, I¡¯ll have to go now,e on, let¡¯s go get Addison,¡± Cory said, wrapping the issue up, she doesn¡¯t want to talk about it any longer. ¡°Ohkay¡­.¡± Adia stressed as they both left to get Addison. ¡°Adia!!¡± Addison called happily running to meet them. ¡°Look what uncle Sebastian got me,¡± Addison said happily, showing Adia a box. ¡°What¡¯s that?¡± Adia asked curiously, ¡°An iPad, look,¡± ¡°I see, it¡¯s pretty,¡± ¡± I Know right,¡± Addison responded, admiring her gift. ¡± Did you thank him?¡± ¡± Yh definitely, he promised to take me out once he¡¯s less busy,¡± Addison informed, ¡± Come on Addison let¡¯s go, you don¡¯t want to be stuck in traffic, do you?¡± Cora asked as Addison shook her head. ¡± Thene on, let¡¯s go, bye Adia¡± she waved, dragging Addison away. ¡°Bye Adia,¡± Addison waved too. ¡°Bye,¡± Adia muttered as she watched them leaving the house, why did it feel like something didn¡¯t feel right with Cora. 80 Monica walked along the balcony, thinking about how her life has been goingtely, Adia has been nothing but kind to her, she even stripped her off the maid title and made her a sister to her, she just lost a sister few days ago, now, she¡¯s gotten a recement for her, a better and kind one. The fact was not that she was happy Monique was no more, that fact that she¡¯ll never see her twin sister ever again really broke her heart, but there was nothing anyone can do, thankfully she wasn¡¯t killed with Monique, because Sebastian was really to rip her heart out, if not for Ace¡¯s kind intervention. ¡°Watch where you¡¯re going,¡± someone said, waking her from the loads of thoughts piled up in her head. ¡°I¡¯m so sorry sir, I¡¯m very very sorry¡± she apologized immediately, she saw Ace standing in front of her, she was so carried away from her thoughts that she didn¡¯t even notice his presence. ¡°Hmm, now look who¡¯s enjoying the privilege of being a sister,¡± he drawled out with a smile on his face, Thanks to Adia, she¡¯s no longer a maid here, and is free now, though her movements are still restricted, but she no longer dresses as aaid and just puts on casual clothes, ¡°Thank you for the other day sir,¡± Monica said appreciating his kind gesture, if it wasn¡¯t for him she would already be dead. ¡°You¡¯re wee, I just did what was necessary, ¡± he said with a smile still on his face. ¡°Enjoy your freedom, be good,¡± he added, walking away from her. Monica turned as she watched Ace till he disappeared into the corridors, actually, she¡¯s been admiring thest lord of Huntersville, for a very long time, though she did well mask her feelings towards him. Like who would live in this house without falling for any of the Moreau brothers, they all reeked of perfection. Sebastian the one who never smiles, but his stoic face will have your heart melting. Arion the one who never smiles genuinely, his smiles mean nothing but doom. Ace the one who¡¯s always seen smiling, you can never tell what is going on in that head of his, in fact all of them, they do know how to hide their emotions, but overall, they¡¯re all very dangerous and deadly, you don¡¯t want to get on their bad side. The second brother is someone she¡¯s never met or seen before, but all she knows is that he¡¯s the illegitimate child of the Moreau¡¯s. Pushing her thoughts aside, she left for her room to have a good rest. .. .. .. Adia knocked on Sebastian¡¯s door a few times, before he finally answered, as she made her way into his room. Stepping inside his room, she looked around and noticed nothing has changed about it since thest time she came in here, but there was really nothing to change here. ¡°Good afternoon,¡± she greeted Sebastian who stood at the middle of the room, shirtless again, the only difference was that he wore trousers this time, Does he seriously have a custom of being shirtless each time he¡¯s in here? Adia asked herself curiously. He really has no iota of shame, and acts however he likes, as far as it¡¯s fine by him. ¡°Umm, I came to thank you,¡± she began, seeing he was just staring at her. ¡°Thanks for the gift you gave to Addison, you really made her happy¡± Adia appreciated, ¡± Anytime,¡± Came his Short reply. ¡°Yeah,¡± Adia replied nervously. ¡°Come over,¡± he suddenly motioned for Adia to move closer. ¡°Hmm¡± ¡°Come over or do you want me toe to you?¡± He asked as Adia choked at his words. What does he want now, does he really have no idea of how tempting he looks now. ¡°Make it snappy¡± Sebastian said as Adia mustered up courage to walk up to him. ¡°What do you want?¡± Adia stuttered, stopping a few meters away from him. ¡°Tending to your wounds¡± he said moving his hands to her forehead making Adia stilled as she suddenly stopped breathing due to the overwhelming nervousness, his taut muscles were literally disyed in front of her, no woman in her right mind will be able to concentrate with this disyed in front of her. cing his hands on her bandages, he loosened it as it fell on the floor. ¡°The scars are almost gone,¡± he said as Adia nodded slowly, as she tried controlling herbored breathing. ¡°Thanks to Evans¡¯s medicine¡± she muttered. ¡°Your hands¡± he demanded as Adia lifted her both hands up, as he loosened the Bandages wrapped around both hands, revealing a scar on both wrists, that was the exact spot that Kate split open, thanks to Evans medicine the scars are almost gone. ¡°They¡¯re almost gone¡± Adia said happily,C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org ¡°Hmm, cause I¡¯ve been applying it on you, even when you were unconscious¡± he said as Adia choked out. ¡°Seriously?¡± She asked, ¡°Yes,¡± he replied, as he walked to a nearby drawer as he collected a tube of cream from it, before going back to where Adia stood. Opening the lid, he poured a pea sized lump at the tip of his fingers, before pasting it on Adia¡¯s forehead, massaging it gently. ¡°There¡¯s no need for a bandage anymore¡± he informed as Adia just nodded. He took one of her hands repeating the process, Adia took on a sharp breath the moment she felt his warm hands on her, and the way he ran his finger through her wrist was so¡­. He was doing it so slow and seductively with a grim expression on his face, as he massaged her hands. Picking up her other hand, he held her by her fingers tips, before he slowly traced his hand to her wrist, sending a burning sensation down Adia¡¯s spine. He¡¯s seriously not just applying medicine to her, he¡¯s doing it all seductively, as his long fingers run through her skin. What does Sebastian think his doing?, Adia asked herself in horror, He looks so calm while she¡¯s in a turmoil, her mind is in a total mess. ¡°All done,¡± he announced, removing his hold from hers slowly, Adia just can¡¯t get all these slow movements of his. ¡°Thanks,¡± Adia uttered gratefully, but it looked as if he was not yet done with her. ¡°Take off your shirt and lie on the bed¡± came his next words as Adia froze on the spot. 81 ¡°Whattt¡­.¡± Adia stammered slowly, trying to register what she just heard, ¡°What!!!!!¡± She eximed in horror, her eyes wide like saucers as she red at Sebastian. ¡°What!!!!?¡± She yelled again, dumbstruck, Why the hell is he telling her to pull off her clothes, ¡°Take your clothes off, or should I do the honor?¡± He asked with a mischievous smirk on his face, she never ceases to amuse him. ¡°But wh¡­y sho¡­uld I¡­.. take.. my¡­shirt.. off..?¡± She stuttered speechlessly. ¡°So I can apply the medicine, have you forgotten so soon about the scars there?¡± He asked, reminding Adia how Kate dragged her along the ground in the woods like a ve, that was a very chaotic experience for her, that she wishes never to happen to her again. ¡°I Know ¡­ . but the person that has been applying it on me when I was unconscious can do it right?, I¡¯ll go call Monica for help,¡± Adia said as quickly as possible as she turned to leave but was held back by Sebastian who held her arm. ¡°Not so fast, Adia,¡± he said, stopping her from moving further. ¡± Just do you know, I¡¯ve been the one applying the medicine on you, so strip, let¡¯s get done with this,¡± he added as Adia froze for the fiftieth time today. ¡°You¡¯re been what??, that can only be possible if I was¡­.¡± ¡± Naked yes, just your upper body though, ¡± he confessed. ¡± Why didn¡¯t Monica do that, I mean¡­.¡± ¡°I didn¡¯t feelfortable with the idea of another person seeing your body, so I took up the task upon myself,¡± he phrased out, as Adia gave him a questioning gaze, ¡°Why would you do that?¡± ¡°Cause we¡¯re married.¡± ¡°Married for benefits..¡± Adiapleted as their eyes met. ¡°Don¡¯t look at me like that, you clearly stated that we¡¯re married for benefits, and don¡¯t forget this is a contract marriage, so I¡­¡± Adia drawled out stating the obvious, this is the exact thing he told her. ¡± Stop behaving like a child Adia, you¡¯re an adult, there¡¯s nothing to hide there, hmm¡± he said as his lips curved up, he really enjoyed seeing her embarrassed. ¡°Easy for you say to say, you¡¯re a vampire, who has lived for years, so you¡¯ve been with countless women, but the case is different for me, I have no experience in this, and I¡¯m not used to men around me, don¡¯t forget I¡¯ve been with just one man which is you,¡± she stated biting her lips hard, ¡± Tsk, tsk, that is not a reasonable excuse, I mean how could you still be a virgin at twenty four, that¡¯s why you¡¯re so inexperienced, you¡¯re wasting my time peters, on the bed¡± he ordered as Adia gulped loudly. She ced her hands on the hem of her top as she fiddled with it, ¡± But¡­ ¡± ¡°Chill Adia, there¡¯s nothing there that I¡¯ve never seen before¡± he said as Adia red at him. ¡± You can give me the medicine, Monica can help me with it,¡± she begged, the fact she loves him now does not mean she¡¯s ready for any of this, she¡¯s not yet ready for this now, not in any way. ¡°No Adia, I always finish with what I¡¯ve started, this is not a big deal, you know what, I¡¯ll just do this myself¡± he said holding Adia by her shoulders, and in a swift move, Adia¡¯s shirt was already off her body, as her twin peaches came into view. Adia just stood speechlessly while he did this to her, what does he think he¡¯s doing, they¡¯re both shirtless now, turning Adia around so that her back was now facing him. Sebastian felt his blood boil seeing the scars on her back, though they were almost gone, it still infuriated him that she had to go through a lot, Adia has suffered too much, not that she deserves it, and the fact that this was only the beginning of everything, once her pregnancy get due, another round of suffering will beginning and she just has a few more months left. Her white skin which was once spotless, is now filled with little cuts, running his hands slowly through the almost spotless marks, he tried so hard to control himself, so he¡¯ll not damn her here and now, she looks so tempting, thankfully he has a high resistance built around him, he can manage this. Adia too was trying so hard also not to run mad, the way his fingers felt on her was so electrifying that it sent jolts to her, down to her Forbidden spot, which was already so wet, she could feel the moisture in between her legs. This was torture, her toes curled up the moment she felt his warm hands on her waist, ¡°What¡¯s he seriously doing there?¡±, She mumbled startled at that little gesture, It was just too much for Adia, that she couldn¡¯t bear it anymore, she¡¯ll have to leave this ce now.N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. ¡°Sebastian I¡­¡± Adia stopped speaking the moment she turned, their faces were so close to each other now, and was sharing a close proximity, they were equally sharing their breaths. Adia immediately bit her lips in regret, she should have just stayed put till he was done and then left without looking back, now she has made the situation worse, they¡¯re so close to each other now, and Sebastian didn¡¯t even look as if he¡¯ll be moving backwards anytime soon. Adia¡¯s eyes met his gray eyes, which she¡¯ll always admire, his eyes were so beautiful and they even look more beautiful, now she¡¯s seeing them up close, her eyes unconsciously moved to his lips, his lips looked so delicious, that she wanted nothing but to devour them, they just kept screaming ¡® kiss me ¡® at her, she badly wanted to kiss those lips of his. The fact that he¡¯s not even moving or saying anything worried her, he just stood staring at her face, his height towering above her, ¡°I¡­. I¡¯ll¡­. you¡­.¡± Adia stammered, having lost her words, she doesn¡¯t even know what to say any longer. ¡°You what?¡± He asked as she looked up to meet his gaze, Sebastian was really a beauty to behold, he¡¯s so handsome like a Greek god, his body screams of nothing but perfection. Adia eyes traveled to his lips again, she said really wants to kiss him and see how those perfectly shaped lips taste. ¡°You want to kiss me right?¡± He asked in a deep dark voice. ¡°No..¡± Adia snapped, denying his im. She just said the direct opposite of what she wanted at the very moment, she really wanted to kiss Sebastian. ¡°Lies Adia, I can see the maddening lust in your eyes, ¡± he whispered, his cool Breath fanning her face. ¡°But I doubt you can try that, you¡¯re just the same old naive Adia, hmm¡± he said as if stating a fact as he yed with Adia hair. The words he said seemed to have sparked up the beast in Adia, as she gathered up every ounce of courage in her, she leaned closer to him, taking him by surprise as she mmed her lips on his. 82 The temptation was too much, Sebastian¡¯s effect on her was just too much, he seduced and tortured her sexually without him, even having to do anything. His smoldering gaze, their skin-to-skin contact, and those mesmerizing eyes of his sparked up something in her, something she has never felt for a man, besides she has never been with a man. And for the very first time, she has experienced what other women experience, being a ve to their sexual desire. It was all too much to handle. ¡°I¡­I¡¯m sorry¡± Adia muttered, apologizing, as she bolted backwards, she just took a bold step and kissed him, but it seemed as if her apology didn¡¯t go down well with Sebastian as his pupils shrank. Before Adia could even say anything else, he had grabbed her by her waist as he took control of her lips. Adia opened her eyes wide in shock, did Sebastian just kiss her?, because as far as she¡¯s concerned, he initiated this kiss, pushing her thoughts aside, Adia parted her lips allowing his tongue to delve inside as she tried keeping up the pace. Their lips entwined together as they kissed each other as if there was no tomorrow, pouring all the emotions that had been building up within them. Sebastian possessed her mouth, drawing her close to himself, from the way she kissed him back, he knew she had no experience in this field, but with time he¡¯s very sure she¡¯ll be very good at returning kisses. It has been so long since he hadst kissed someone, infact, since the night he and Adia had sex for the very first time, he has not been with any other woman. All his past kisses were nothingpared to this, her mouth tasted so good, it felt like a safe haven, which he definitely didn¡¯t want to stop. Adia felt him nibbling with her lower lip, biting it softly, as a groan escaped his mouth, Is he enjoying this too? Adia asked herself because he sounded satisfied, and she was really enjoying this kiss. She never expected her first real kiss to be this mind-blowing, and the fact that it was Sebastian that kissed her was so satisfying. Her knees grew weak from the kiss as she tried standing on her feet, she didn¡¯t want this to end, she wrapped her hands around his neck, drawing him closer to herself, that naked upper bodies met. The kiss grew more fierce, as Sebastian glided his tongue into her mouth fir the second time, consuming her whole soul, he really wanted to devour her, everything ignited within them as Adia was now getting used to the way he yed with her mouth, using the same pattern he used in kissing her as she tried to keep up with his ferocity. Right now, he looked nothing like the Sebastian she knows, at this very moment he felt like he was an untamed beast that has been deprived of freedom and food, and has just been given meat after so many years, they way he devoured her scared her but the fear was reced by the inexplicable hunger that she felt. The moment she pressed herself against him, Adia moved her hands to his back as she ran her hands all over, doing the little she knows about all these this, Sebastian moved his mouth from her lips to her neck, as hetched his mouth on the base of her throat, biting and sucking it, earning him a soft moan from Adia, he increased his pressure he used on her neck as he wanted her to make those sounds again for him, just him and no one else, and she did. Adia sunk her fingers into his scalp as she drew him closer to herself, as if she wanted them to be one. His mouth found its way to her away as he took over her lips, kissing her hard even harder than before, as Adia reciprocated the same gesture he used in kissing her, hard and savagely. Adia was not so sure why she was doing this, why she wanted to be devoured by him even if he reeked of nothing but danger, and why she was kissing him this hard, almost like someone of has been doing this for years, the only thing she was sure of right now was that she didn¡¯t want any of this to end, she didn¡¯t want this feeling to end, it feels so good, She wanted all of him. She felt his hand gliding down her back as he moved it to her bottom, he lifted her up, carrying her by her buttocks as he wrapped her legs around his waist, in a swift move, Adia felt her back hit the cold bed, as he pondered on how he got to the bed do fast, before it finally urred to her that he¡¯s a vampire. He was now lying on top of her on the bed, as he pressed his whole length against her, while Adia wrapped her hands around his neck, to be morefortable. ¡°Seb..¡± she moaned, panting hard. Her hands moved to his taut muscles as she traced them along his inked skin. She had for so long wanted to touch it, feel it on her hands, it felt so hard and smooth that all she wanted to do was keep touching it and even kiss it. Sebastian was really driving her insane.N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner. His lips traveled to the depths of her stomach as he kissed it softly up till he got to one of her twin peaches, that looked so enticing, one thing he hase to love in her, her breasts, he really wanted to know how they would taste, he really wanted to know if they were ripened enough, he moved his hands to her breasts, kneading it as he pinched her nipples, slowly. Adia breathed deeply as a scene shed in her head, she just suddenly felt dirty, she just remembered when Brandon touched her, when she was abducted by Kate, and that thought just broke her, bringing back the painful memories. ¡°Please¡­. stop¡­. don¡¯t do it¡­¡± she said unconsciously to herself, and that seemed to bring Sebastian back to his own senses, before she could say anything else, Sebastian was already a few meters away from the bed, as he stood breathing in and out.

XOXO AUTHOR BLU~VEE. 83 ¡°Oh fuck¡± Sebastian muttered to himself, running his fingers through his hair, what did he just do? He just allowed his carnal desires to take over himpletely, if Adia hadn¡¯t stopped him a while ago, God knows there was definitely no going back for him, once he had ventured far, and he was almost there, the ce of no return, till he was satisfied with her. ¡°Look don¡¯t let this get into your head, I¡¯m a man and a vampire also, just do you know vampires have great sex drives, and the fact I¡¯ve been chaste since our night together doesn¡¯t help at all, so forget about everything that just happened, it was just my hormones acting up,¡± he exined as quickly as he could, thest thing he wanted to do was to make Adia feel that he feels something for her and then get on with her feelings, what just happened between them, can give her hope and she might keep pushing on, which is clearly what he¡¯ll try to avoid at all cost. And the fact he kissed her back, responded and even escted everything doesn¡¯t help at all, because it¡¯s kind of his fault. So he needs to rify everything now, or there will be a next time. ¡°I¡­I¡­¡± Adia stuttered, his words really cut deep, but that was not even bothering her right now. The memories of Brandon toying with her just resurfaced making her feel disgusted at herself. ¡°Adia¡­¡± Sebastian called seeing he head was faced downwards and it looks as if she was hesitating with something, she looked hurt and he just saw tears fall from her eyes, ¡°Why the hell is she crying?¡± She asked himself bolting to where she sat on the bed, now that she knows about vampires, there¡¯s nothing to hide anymore and he can use his powers anytime now. ¡°Adia, are you okay?¡± He asked lifting her head up only to see tears smeared around her face. ¡± He¡­he¡­¡± Afia stammered as she broke down into tears. ¡°He what?¡± Sebastian asked clueless as he lifted her up from the bed, cing her in hisps, right now he¡¯s now the one seated on the bed while Adia was seated on top of hisps, the fact their upper bodies are naked not bothering any of them. ¡°Who¡¯s he? You can tell me so I can go break his bones?¡± He asked again, he has no idea why she¡¯s crying, but all he knows is that whoever the HE is, messed with Adia, cause she looks so frightened now. ¡°I feel so dirty, I feel so¡­.¡± Adia choked out as she sobbed. ¡°Why do you feel so dirty about yourself , Adia?¡±Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. He asked again, wondering if he¡¯s the HE, but it didn¡¯t look as if he¡¯s the one at all. ¡°He yed with my body, he touched me with those filthy hands of his, and said he wanted to have a taste of what you¡¯re having,¡± Adia uttered thest words softly, burying her head on his chest. ¡°He ..¡± Sebastian deadpanned wondering who he is, or could it be Logan. ¡°Is it Logan?¡± He asked because he¡¯s gonna kill whoever turns out to be the he and destroy their families. ¡°No, no, no, it¡¯s not Logan, Logan will never do that¡± Adia chimed in, there¡¯s little or nothing she knows about Sebastian¡¯s family, all that she knows is that Logan Is the brother they all hate, and Sebastian will never hesitate to kill him. ¡°Then who??¡± Sebastian asked again in a cold chill voice, anger evident in it, the fact that she was stalling time, and finding it difficult to mention who the person is, vexed him a lot. ¡°It¡¯s Brandon,¡± Adia said, still in tears. ¡°Who the hell is Brandon?¡± As far as Sebastian is concerned, he¡¯s never heard that name amongst the people around him. ¡°When I was kidnapped by Kate, the man that held me hostage, the bastard toyed with me¡± She said still crying, she felt so hurt. ¡± I¡¯m sorry it¡¯s all my fault¡± Sebastian said surprising himself, this is the first time he has ever said sorry to a person, Adia is the first woman that has ever heard sorry from him, it just feels everything that happened is his fault, he should never have let her go, regardless of how anger he was, he should never have let her go mad still held her close, if he had done that, Kate will never have had the chance to get a hold of Adia, and the Bastard called Brandon would have neverid his fingers on her, it¡¯s all his fault. The Bastard is so lucky he¡¯s dead now, cause Sebastian would have killed him over and over again for everying his hands on Adia, and for even thinking he can have a taste of Adia, the gods are on his side for making him die early, Arion said something like this to him about the Bastard having fun with Adia, but he never registered it in his mind as he was so upied with finding Adia whereabouts. ¡°I feel so disgusted at myself,¡± Adia added. ¡°It¡¯s all my fault, and I promise you that no man will ever darey their hands on you¡± he promised and he will definitely keep to his words. ¡°I¡­¡± ¡°Shhhh¡± Sebastian sounded cing his finger on her lips as he wiped her tears. ¡°It¡¯s all in the past now and trust me Adia, you¡¯re the most dignified and decent woman I¡¯ve ever met all these years that I¡¯ve lived, you should be proud of that¡± He said to her, true to his words, Adia was like a rare gem, different from all other women, the fact she remained untouched till she was twenty four, said a lot, because she struggled to fend for herself and her sister, without ever selling her body to a man, something Sebastian could confess that he was proud of, he can never imagine another man touching he before he did, he would have definitely hunted him down and killed him. ¡°Come here¡± he said, holding her by her head as he pressed it on his chest, patting her bare back slowly. 84 Sebastian sat on the bed with Adia still wrapped in his hands. The only difference now was that she was asleep and making sniffling sounds that sounded like pains to his ears. He¡¯s been sitting here for more than thirty minutes now and hasn¡¯t moved an inch, he didn¡¯t want to wake her up, so he¡¯ll just wait patiently till she¡¯s awake. Sebastian couldn¡¯t fathom why he was doing this to her and acting so passionate to her, maybe he¡¯s because she¡¯s suffered too much because of him and he pitied her, or is it because she has found a special ce in his heart, because no matter how much he tries to push her away and act cold to her, she just seems to be melting him softly, and out of nowhere he treats her like an egg, he just hoped it should not be thetter, he¡¯s going to let her go once she delivers, she deserves better than this. A knock came through ad he lifted his head up answering the call, ¡°Who?¡± He asked, ¡°Arion, matters arising¡± ¡°Be out in five,¡± he replied standing on his feet as he gently ced Adia on the bed, tucking her under the duvet, covering her up, and he made sure to cover her exposed body. He was about to go grab a shirt when the door sprang open, he knew this was bound to happen, knowing the kind of brother he has Arion will definitely burst in, he¡¯s so lucky he didn¡¯t see any part of Adia, or this would be thest day he¡¯ll ever be able to see the beauty of earth. ¡°What part of I¡¯ll be out in five don¡¯t you understand?¡± He asked, grabbing a shirt from his closet. ¡± Seriously Seb, I was just curious to see who owned the heartbeats I was hearing, so I decided to check for myself¡± he said shrugging his shoulders. ¡± I see you¡¯ve grown a liking towards the human, you never share your bed with anyone¡± he said smacking his lips. ¡± Shut up, what is it that you want to say?¡± ¡± We can discuss that outside, just know your little chick has be a hot cake in Britaris, as everyone is curious about the human carrying a hybrid,¡± Ace informed while Sebastian wore his shirt. ¡± We can talk in my study¡± he said leading Arion out, as he closed the door behind him, what he feared the most is already happening, and that¡¯s for words to get out about Adia¡¯s pregnancy, now everyone wille seeking her, those with good or bad intentions, even the ones that seeks more power, just like his father, the only left fir him now is to make sure no harmes to Adia. .. .. .. Adia threw the bed covers as she scrambled out of the bed. ¡°What the hell has happened?¡± She asked herself in horror, seeing her upper body was still naked, she rushed to the table that her shirt was lying on, as she quickly put in on. From the Look of things Sebastian was not present in the room, so this was the perfect opportunity for her to flee, without thinking twice, Adia was already out of the room as she looked at the door behind her.Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. ¡°Looks as if you¡¯re doing better now¡± a voice said from behind her, as Adia yelped in shock as she turned instantly only to see Arion standing there, When did he seriously get here?, Adia asked herself horrified, now that she knows about them, that they¡¯re vampires, they don¡¯t even care to hide their powers anymore. ¡°Are you kidding me?¡± Adia gasped, staring at Arion, the brother who never really acknowledged her presence here, and they¡¯ve never been best of friends. ¡°How are you doing now?¡± He asked Adia who red at him. ¡°Why do you care? I know you don¡¯t mean well for me,¡± she stated as he nodded his head momentarily. ¡± True¡± he replied, still nodding his head. ¡°I see you¡¯re having a good time with my brother¡± he said as Adia just ignored him. ¡°Well enjoy it while itsts, you guys being together is contracted anyway,¡± He added. ¡°Are you done?¡± Adia asked so she can leave his annoying presence immediately, he likes speaking in words she never understand and it infuriates her a lot. ¡°Not really, I just came to give you a tiny gossip¡± ¡°And what might that be?¡± Adia inquired, because the fact that Arion is actually speaking to her is a rare sight, he is only sent around her, whenever he wants to make trouble or sprout rubbish. ¡°I¡¯m so shocked you never even wondered where Mickelson might be, huh?¡± He asked raising his brows at Adia ¡± He¡¯s currently having a vacation¡± she responded, stating the obvious as Arion suddenly burst outughing. ¡± Oh gosh, that¡¯s the cock and bull story, Sebastian told you?¡± He said, stillughing as Adia just stood puzzled. If he¡¯s not on a vacation, where else can he be? ¡± Look Adia, I¡¯ve been meaning to tell you this for weeks now, but couldn¡¯t, now you know about us vampires, There¡¯s nothing to hide, sister inw¡± he uttered thest words sarcastically. Arion has already found out about what he wanted to know and that¡¯s Sebastian has grown fond of the human, even though he tries to hide it and acts as if he doesn¡¯t care about her, he saw Sebastian¡¯s reactions during the time Adia was abducted, and that was enough proof for him. ¡°Your husband, sorry contracted husband Sebastian has dessicated Mickelson since the incident at your birthday party¡± he announced as Adia stared nkly at him, she really wanted to throw a punch at him for his sarcastic words, but it seemed as if Mickelson was in trouble, a serious one at that. ¡°Dessica¡­.¡± ¡°Dessicated, Adia¡± Arion drawled out. ¡°In other words, Mickelson is like a living dead now, I¡¯m sure he¡¯s still alive, but I don¡¯t know where Sebastian hid him, or where he left him dessicated, so you¡¯re gonna help me convince Sebastian to let him out¡± ¡± And what makes you think he¡¯ll listen to me?¡± Adia asked, ¡± I don¡¯t know, but you¡¯ll have to figure out a way to free Mickelson from the shackles of suffering, he¡¯s been nothing but a loyal servant to you¡± Arion phrased out ying with the lighter he held in his hands. ¡± I¡¯m not sure¡­.¡± Adia hesitantly said, ¡°Just figure something out, sister inw, I sense your husband is around,¡± he said, moving away from Adia, before Sebastian catches him talking to her. 85 ¡°Sebastian I need to talk to you¡± Adia announced immediately she came down from the stairs to the dining room, where Sebastian was having a cup of coffee. ¡°What¡¯s it that you wanna talk about?¡± He asked, dropping the cup silently and elegantly on the table. ¡°Where¡¯s Mickelson?¡± Adia asked without beating around the bush, right now she¡¯s so pissed, she confided in Monica who told her everything, Mickelson was not having any vacation, Sebastian locked him up, not only that he chopped off the fingers of all his employees iming they let her get into trouble.C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org ¡°Having a nice vacation¡± came his usual reply. ¡°Oh please don¡¯t lie to me I know what you did already¡± Adia snapped angrily. ¡°If you know already, then why go about asking pointless questions?¡± He asked picking up his cup of coffee as he took sips from it. Adia swallowed hard, so as to not to get more angry at him, he looked so unfazed, as if it didn¡¯t bother him at all. ¡°Let him out¡± Adia demanded as Sebastian turned to face her, he held her gaze for the longest of time, before retracting his gaze as he answered. ¡°No¡± ¡°Seriously, don¡¯t you think the punishment is enough already, just stop that, he didn¡¯t even endanger me, you did, you¡¯re the one who mmed my head against a wall, and there¡¯s no justification for that, I even forgave you for what you did¡± Adia pointed out. ¡± I never asked for your forgiveness¡± came his curt words as Adia scoffed loudly. ¡°You never asked for my forgiveness¡± she repeated, ¡°What¡¯s wrong with you?¡± She asked, ¡°What¡¯s wrong with me?¡± ¡°Yes, I don¡¯t know but you have serious mood swings, this minute you¡¯re nice and sweet then the next minute you¡¯re just being sarcastic, you just act like a Dick¡± Adia phrased out, not able to fathom what¡¯s going on in that head of his, yesterday they kissed, a very hot and steamy kiss, she even fell asleep in his arms and then he put her to bed, now he¡¯s back to his Cold infuriating self. ¡°Cause that¡¯s how I am Adia, a dick¡± he deadpanned as Adia just smiled. ¡°You know what, you can say whatever you want to discourage me, but guess what I¡¯m not letting you go until you answer me and see to my demands¡± Adia uttered firmly, he¡¯s not going to have his way, not today. ¡°What¡¯s happening?¡± Ace asked walking up to Arion who stood along the corridors watching Adia and Sebastian. ¡°Nothing much, just a little couples fight, feel free to join me¡± Arion invited with a wide smile on his face. ¡°Definitely¡± Ace replied looking downstairs, thanks to their hearing abilities, they could hear everything Adia and Sebastian were saying. BACK TO ADIA AND SEBASTIAN¡­. ¡°Suit yourself Adia,¡± ¡°Suit myself, can you stop being so mean?¡± Adia yelled angrily, ¡°You just keep hurting me repeatedly and then punish the ones who protect me, now tell me who does that?¡± ¡°You know I¡¯ll never hurt you Adia¡± ¡°But you¡¯ve hurt me before and you¡¯re fucking hurting me now¡± ¡°That¡¯s what you don¡¯t get and will never get, the fact that I¡¯m kind to you doesn¡¯t mean you¡¯ll over step your boundaries, Know where you stand Adia, you¡¯re Just the mother of my child, which was clearly not by choice¡± ¡± I Know what you¡¯re doing Sebastian¡± Adia said smiling widely, ¡± And¡­?¡± ¡± You¡¯re trying to make me hate you, you¡¯re trying to make you see the demon in you, but guess what Sebastian Hunter Moreau¡± Adia called out calling him by his full name gaining his attention. ¡± You fail, it¡¯s not going to ever work, now get your ass up and take me to where Mickelson is, please¡± Adia begged, Samantha, Mickelson, Monica, Monique who turned out to be scheming against her, were the ones who made her day during the one month that Sebastian locked her up, they were always around to keep herpany. ¡°He¡¯s having a good time Adia, can you just stop making a fuss over a guard?¡± ¡°That¡¯s my business to worry about, Sebastian please just let him out from wherever you¡¯ve hid him, it¡¯s been long enough already¡± ¡± No,¡± ¡± You¡¯ve gotta be kidding me, either you listen to me or I¡¯ll do things my own way¡± Adia stated knowing fully well that there is always a way to get to Sebastian. ¡± And what are you gonna do, I¡¯d love to hear that¡± Sebastian asked looking straight at her with the corner of his lips curved up. ¡°I¡­. I¡¯ll¡­¡± Adia stammered, ¡°You¡¯ll what Adia?¡± ¡°I¡¯ll¡­¡± ¡°You know what Adia, stop trying to be strong you¡¯re only wearing yourself out¡± he said getting up on his feet. ¡°Follow me¡± he gestured to her walking upstairs ¡°Follow you where?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t you want to see Mickelson anymore?¡± Came his question while he climbed up the stairs, ¡± Really??¡± Adia asked happily as her face lit up in a very bright smile, but Sebastian didn¡¯t bother to answer her, as he continued climbing up the stairs. ¡± I Know you¡¯ll eventually agree¡± Adia muttered happily running to keep up his pace, ¡± Thank you Sebastian¡± she appreciated, Adia never expected him to agree to her demands so easily, especially after he said those hurtful words, this husband of her¡¯s is really a chameleon, and can change his mind every time, that you will not even know what¡¯s going on in that thick skull of his, he actually has a heart in there and just acts as if he does not give a shit about anything, when he actually cares. .. .. .. ¡°Did you just see that?¡± Ace asked with his mouth wide open as Sebastian went into his study with Adia following behind him, they were currently at the opposite side of Sebastian¡¯s study. ¡°I sure did,e on follow them¡± Arion said, ¡°Why?¡± ¡°To get Mickelson of course¡± ¡°I don¡¯t just get why you¡¯re so obsessed with Mickelson, could there be any chance you like him?¡± Ace reasoned out, because he couldn¡¯t just pinpoint why Arion was so hellbent on setting Mickelson free when he normally doesn¡¯t give a damn about other people¡¯s welfare. ¡°Shut up¡± Arion said, leaping away, there¡¯s something he and Mickelson were working on, so he really needed him. 86 Getting into his study room alongside Adia, Sebastian walked to a corner with shelves aligning it, ¡°I¡¯m not going to read books Sebastian,¡± Adia stated, staring at the books lying on the shelves. She was sure they were books rted to vampires because they looked so ancient. ¡°Trust me you can¡¯t even read them, these books are older than your ancestors, now stop talking¡± he said softly , his ear was really itching him now, ever since Adia came in he was now talking more than usual. Going over to a particr shelf he pulled out a book, as it made a cracked noise which sounded very displeasing to Adia. To her dismay a secret passage came to view as both shelves parted revealing a passage which was lit up by a golden light, which Adia was sure was from a fire torch. ¡°You¡¯ve gotta be kidding me!!, Mickelson has been under this roof the whole time!!!¡± She eximed in horror, so he¡¯s been hiding Mickelson in the house all this time and no one even knew about it, how could he be so cocky?. ¡± Come on¡± he beckoned, ignoring her question, switching on his phone torchlight, as he pointed it on the ground.All content is ? N0velDrama.Org. Asides from the lighting from his phone, there were also fire torches aligning the walls, the ce looked like a cave, it was also eerie and cold. ¡°What¡¯s this ce?¡± Adia asked her voice echoing all over the ce, it¡¯s so surprising that this kind of ce exists in this house, yes, Sebastian¡¯s house is very big that one might even get lost inside, but never in her wildest dreams did she expect this ce to be here and in his study of all ces and behind a bookshelf. ¡°Is that question really necessary, you want Mickelson, we¡¯re going to get Mickelson, now no more questions¡± he snapped leading the way as they delved deeper into the enclosed cave. .. .. .. ¡± Aren¡¯t we close already?¡± Adia gasped, cing her hands on her knees as she tried catching her breath. Sebastian has been leading her to an unknown ce for like thirty minutes now and her legs were already damn weak. ¡°You want to rescue someone and don¡¯t even have the capabilities to do so, what a shame, get up¡± he said, holding her hands, as he held her up. ¡°Easy for you to say, Mr vampire¡± she sneered panting really hard, her knees wobbling, making her fall back on the fall. ¡°Do you want to continue, or can we just go back?¡± He asked, waiting patiently for her reply as he just grinned mischievously. ¡°Never¡± she spat, ¡°I¡¯d advise we go back, cause we still have a very long way down, we¡¯ve not even gotten to the stairs, we¡¯re going underground Adia, so it¡¯s not toote to go back¡± he added, looking for every possible means to make her go back. ¡± No Sebastian, it¡¯s not going to work, let¡¯s go¡± she panted, getting up on her feet as she continued walking into the cave, an intrigued smile ghosted Sebastian¡¯s face as he followed behind her, he¡¯ll see how far she can go today. .. .. .. ¡± I can¡¯t, I can¡¯t¡­.¡± Adia panted, falling weakly on the floor as sheid down on the stairs. ¡°We can still go back, I¡¯ll carry you¡± Sebastian proposed as Adia looked at him with a sneer. ¡± You¡¯re seriously torturing me Sebastian, I¡¯m parched right now, my vision is blurry and my legs are already so weak, we¡¯ve been walking to God knows where for close to an hour now, just stop this,¡± Adia pleaded wiping the sweat off her forehead. Even though the ce was cold she has been forced to sweat, she can¡¯t even feel her legs anymore. ¡± I thought you wanted to be the savior of the day?¡± He sneered squatting in front of her, as he gave her a bottle of water. ¡± Have some water¡± he offered as Adia gave him a long look before grabbing the water from him as she gulped it down. ¡± So you had water all along??¡± She asked horrified immediately as she gained a little strength. ¡°I just thought maybe you¡¯ll need it. Are you ready to continue the journey?¡± He asked, ¡°I¡¯m pregnant..¡± Adia deadpanned ring daggers at him, if eyes could kill probably Sebastian would already be dead. ¡°I Know..¡± ¡°And you¡¯re making me go through all these, I¡¯m definitely gonna let your children know how much you made their mother suffer¡± Adia stated as Sebastian just smiled which was immediately reced by his normal expressionless face. ¡°Wa.. it did you just sm.. ile?¡± Adia stuttered pointing at him, ¡°No¡± ¡°Lies , I just saw you smile..¡± Adia uttered as her face lit up, this is the first time she¡¯s seeing him smile, a genuine smile not the one that means nothing but danger. ¡± You just smiled Sebastian, right?¡± She asked happily, finding it difficult to believe that he actually smiled at her. ¡± No, you saw wrong, remember your vision is blurry so your eyes are ying tricks on you¡± he denied standing up in a swift move. ¡± That¡¯s a lie Sebastian, you just smiled and trust me you looked so ethereal¡± she praised, he really looked good looking and the fact there were fire torches around made him look like a god under the golden sun. ¡°Your eyes are just tired,e on¡± he muttered, raising her up on her feet, supporting her, so she¡¯ll not fall. ¡°What is it?¡± Adia asked startled, she still needs time to recuperate, while she looked like someone who¡¯s been put on hardbor for days, he didn¡¯t even look tired a bit and looked just as fresh as he was when they entered this ce, he didn¡¯t even look tired a bit, not did he stop to catch his breath, Of course he¡¯s a vampire, what was I expecting? Adia asked herself as she rolled her eyes, ¡± Hold still, you¡¯re gonna feel very cold,¡± he informed carrying her in a bridal style, tucking her safely in his arms. ¡°What are you doing?¡± Adia asked, startled at this sudden movement of his. ¡°Hold tight¡± came his short response as he moved away swiftly with Adia in his arms, down the stairs, as it felt as if a mighty wind just came by that ce. 87 Sebastian dropped Adia gently on the ground as they stopped in front of a cell, rounded by iron bars, the strong stench of rusty iron present in the air. ¡°What¡¯s this ce?¡± Adia asked, looking into the cell as she caught sight something bound in chains, from her level of experience, the thing had a silhouette of a human and is definitely a human being, but can¡¯t be a human, because whatever that was, look pale and dead, like a corpse and that¡¯s when it urred to her that she was living with vampires and that thing might actually be Mickelson, since Arion mentioned that Sebastian had left him dessicated. ¡± It¡¯s Mickelson,¡± he answered, opening the cell, which made a loud creaking ear deafening sound.Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. Walking into the cell Adia stood beside Sebastian scared at the sight before, she really felt like throwing her lungs up, not only did the ce stink of rusted iron, it was also damn, with drop of water falling at some ces, the sight of Mickelson didn¡¯t help either, it looked as if she wasing face to face with a corpse. ¡°Is he still alive?¡± She asked Sebastian, because right at this moment, one could mistake him for a dead man, and he was bound in strong and heavy chains like a criminal. ¡°Mickelson¡­¡± Adia called moving closer to touch him, but a voice spoke out, startling her as she rushed back to hold Sebastian who was just standing still. ¡°I¡¯d advise you not to do that¡± the voice said as Ace and Arion came into picture. ¡°What are you doing here?¡± Sebastian asked with a growl present in his voice, ¡°No need to get angry, I know, you knew that we were right behind you¡± Arion said, ¡°Yes, abd why make sister-inw stress herself that much, you could have just carried her, throughout the whole journey¡± Ace stated meaningfully, ¡± And I find it very skeptical to believe that you¡­¡± ¡± Quiet¡­¡± Sebastian¡¯s voice thundered, stopping them from saying whatever was going toe out from that mouth of theirs. He already knows what they¡¯re going to sprout and he was definitely not in the right mood to hear that. ¡± Why can¡¯t I touch him? He¡¯s still alive,¡± Adia asked, stepping into the picture. ¡± I can¡¯t believe your husband was just offering you as a sacrificial meal to a vampire that has be denied blood for close to a month, can¡¯t you see how pale he looks, if he gets a hold of you he¡¯s only gonna suck you dry, so move backwards and stick close to your husband¡± Arion snapped squatting in front of Mickelson, raising his head up by his chin. ¡± So what are you gonna do about him?¡± Adia questioned, she¡¯s so worried about his state. ¡± Feed him¡± came Ace¡¯s reply. ¡°With what?¡± ¡°Seriously Adia, what serves as a vampire supplement?¡± Arion asked, shaking his head at her as he broke one of the chains around Mickelson¡¯s wrist, doing the same to the other as Mickelson¡¯s body fell lifelessly on the floor as Adia held Sebastian who had been quiet the whole time very tight. ¡°Why did you let him lose, there¡¯s a human here and you just let a starved vampire out?¡± Ace asked, pointing at Mickelson dessicated body. ¡°He¡¯s too weak to even lift a finger, she¡¯s safe¡± Arion responded, ¡± Why don¡¯t you feed him blood or can I offer him mine?¡± Adia suddenly asked as every turned to look at her with a very disapproving look including Sebastian, What is she thinking, offering herself up?, They all asked themselves, to them it was not love or care or whatever, it was foolishness, once Mickelson sinks his fangs into Adia she¡¯s gone, he¡¯s gonna suck her dry till herst breath, not only that Sebastian would never allow anyone sink their fang into her just as he clearly warned them all never topel her. ¡± You can¡¯t Adia, he drink from you till you die¡± Ace responded, ¡± Them feed him with yours, aren¡¯t vampires allowed to drink from other vampires?¡± She asked as they all shook their heads negatively. Actually twilight vampires could drink from any other vampires, but the turned vampire couldn¡¯t, just the same way twilight vampires can feed their blood to other turned vampires, but a twilight vampire can never feed from a fellow twilight vampire. As the creators of all other vampires, they were certain rules they needed to adhere to. ¡°The Smell of your blood is actually torturing him now, it¡¯s just the fact that he¡¯s desated and weak that¡¯s restraining him, so you have to be very cautious around vampires, they usually go mad once the perceive the smell of blood¡± Ace exined to Adia. ¡± But Sebastian has never bitten me, and I¡¯ve gotten injured in front of him on several asions, even in front of you guys¡± Adia said, when Kate slit her wrist she didn¡¯t bite her and Kate¡¯s a vampire, Evans is a doctor and a vampire also, Sebastian too on the day of her birthday when she mistakenly cut herself, he didn¡¯t even drink from her. ¡°Because we have a higher tolerance, we¡¯re twilight vampires and have more resistance to blood unlike the rest¡± Ace exined, ¡°What¡¯s a twilight vampire?¡± Adia asked curiously, ¡°The creators of other vampires¡± ¡°But Monica is a vampire too, same with the servants, why don¡¯t they¡­..¡± ¡± That¡¯s because they¡¯re vegetarians, they don¡¯t survive on blood, making them weak, they¡¯re no less than you humans, enough of all the questions, we¡¯re not holding a vampire question and answer session here¡± Arion chimed in interrupting Adia. ¡± I¡¯m taking him out now¡± Arion announced picking Mickelson up in a swift move and the next second he was out of the ce already. ¡± Catch ya outside¡± Ace said dashing away as well leaving just Adia and Sebastian in there. ¡± Why did you do that to him, he¡¯s one of your trusted guards?¡± Adia asked Sebastian, ¡± You trust no one Adia, not even yourself¡± he uttered, picking her up as he carried her in a bridal style dashing out of the cell as well. 88 ¡°How much more blood does he need?¡± Adia asked as she watched Mickelson hungrily drinking from a blood bag. She was so surprised at how he recovered so quickly just by taking a sip, his skin was alreadying back to normal, to its original color and one wouldn¡¯t even believe he was looking like a corpse two minutes ago. ¡°As much as he can get ¡± Arion answered, throwing another blood bag to Mickelson who sat on the floor as he returned to his original state. Mickelson looked up as his red eyes traveled to Adia who was standing close to Sebastian as he fixed his gaze on her. ¡°Why are his eyes so red?¡± Adia asked, whispering to Sebastian as she held his arms. ¡°Cause he¡¯s still in his vampire state, he¡¯s still recovering¡± Sebastian exined as Adia nodded. Mickelson then moved his eyes to Sebastian, he suddenly sprang up from the floor as he rushed to where Sebastian and Adia stood. ¡°Haaa!!¡± Adia yelled in fear as Mickelson charged at the direction they stood, Is heing for his revenge? Adia asked herself as she held Sebastian so tight, wondering why he¡¯s so calm, while an angry vampire who he tortured ising to fight him. To her dismay, Mickelson stopped right in front of Sebastian, kneeling before him, with his head on the floor, ¡°I don¡¯t deserve your mercy sir, I deserve to die¡± Mickelson begged in a dry raspy voice as he pleaded for his life. ¡± Please have mercy sir, I beg for your forgiveness, forgive this stupid servant of yours¡± he begged his head buried on the floor, he dared not look Sebastian in the face. Adia just stood dumbstruck, like how in the world? She literally expected Mickelson to fight but rather he begged for his life after being tortured a d even pledged his loyalty to Sebastian who, Exactly how much power did Sebastian hold?, Adia pondered to herself. ¡°Fix yourself up, you know where to find Malcolm, he¡¯ll update you on what have been going on, you¡¯ll resume duty tomorrow¡± Sebastian stated turning to leave with his hands wrapped around Adia¡¯s, as he left along with her while Mickelson kept muttering appreciation til he was out of sight. .. .. .. ¡°I just can¡¯t believe everything that¡¯s been going on in my life¡± Adia spluttered as she sat in front of her dressing mirror while Monica helped her fix her hair, she had Just freshened up for the evening. ¡± And what¡¯s that?¡± Monica asked parting her hair in two as she wanted to help braid Adia¡¯s hair in pigtails. ¡°Everything, and I can¡¯t just believe I¡¯m pregnant, just like that¡± Adia said, cing her hands on her slightly swollen stomach, a lot has really happened. ¡°I must confess¡± Monica beganbing Adia¡¯s hair backwards as she spoke, ¡°You¡¯re a very strong woman, I can¡¯t believe that you still chose to stay after what Kate made you go through, not everydy would have survived that¡± Monica honestly stated, considering Adia¡¯s condition and her vulnerable state, not every woman would have survived that, seeing you the way she was tortured by Kate. ¡°I just have to be strong for myself that¡¯s all¡±All content is ? N0velDrama.Org. ¡°Monica¡± Adia called, ¡± Hmm¡± ¡± Don¡¯t you find it strange that there¡¯s no change in me at all?¡± Adia asked looking at her body, ¡± What did you mean?¡± ¡± Isn¡¯t it said that when a woman is pregnant she tends to grow bigger in size like they grow fatter and all, but look at me, you¡¯ll have to take a very close look before you¡¯ll know I¡¯m pregnant, I look so small¡± Adia pouted rubbing her stomach. ¡± Everyone has their own way of growing Adia, you¡¯re just in your fifth month, so there¡¯s still time for you to grow bigger, do there¡¯s absolutely nothing to worry about¡± Monica expressed braiding one part of Adia¡¯s hair, she knew deep within her, that Adia would only get thinner and thinner as the pregnancy get due, till the day she finally dies, it¡¯s so heartbreaking to know she¡¯ll not live to see her children and it¡¯s more heartbreaking that she has no ideas about it, she¡¯s just being fooled by everyone around her, she¡¯s living her life now, not knowing she has just less than four months left, that¡¯s if she¡¯ll ever be able tost till then, she just hoped Sebastianes up with a situation, though there was literally nothing anyone can do. ¡°You think so?¡± Adia asked as Monica nodded, it felt so strange to her but she just decided to let it be. ¡°You look so pretty Adia¡± Monica praised finishing up her hair. ¡°I Know right¡± Adia said smiling admiring herself in the mirror. ¡°Monica can I ask a question?¡± ¡°Anything¡± ¡°Do you think Sebastian will let me go for my antenatal?¡± Adia asked cause no one has ever spoken about that and the only drugs she takes is the one Evans administers to her, Adia just felt it would be better if she visited the hospital herself, at least to meet other moms. ¡°I don¡¯t know, I¡¯ll say you ask him yourself¡± Monica responded, knowing deep within her that Sebastian was gonna say no, Adia¡¯s pregnant for a vampire, with vampire children growing in her, so there¡¯s actually no need for her to visit the antenatal, because their medicines does little or nothing to Adia¡¯s body, it only does little because the babies also have a human gene in them, and the ones Evans administers to her is specially prepared for vampires, because normal drugs won¡¯t work take too much effect on Adia, not when she¡¯s carrying vampires in her womb, with a twilight vampire¡¯s gene. ¡°Perfect then, I¡¯ll go speak to Sebastian, I¡¯m having my first antenatal tomorrow¡± Adia announced getting up on her feet. ¡°I look okay right?¡± She asked Monica, referring to the pajamas she was putting on. ¡°You look cute and perfect¡± Monica praised giving Adia a thumbs up. ¡°Good,e on then¡± Adia beckoned leaving the room with Monica as she headed for Sebastian¡¯s room. 89 Adia walked into Sebastian¡¯s room after she knocked on the door, for a few minutes and got no response, walking inside the cold room she called his name out. ¡°Sebastian, Sebastian¡± she called but it looked as if he was not in there or he was not in the room. ¡°I¡¯ll check his study¡± Adia mumbled to herself, making her way out, as she headed to his study room, it was already past nine and almost everyone was already in their rooms, she was literally the only one still walking about. ¡°Sebastian¡± she called out walking into the study, but it looked empty too. Adia walked around the neatly arranged study room, but there was not even a trace of him anywhere. ¡°Maybe he has something to take care of, I¡¯ll see him tomorrow¡± she reasoned heading for the door. ¡°Why are you going around shouting my name, by this time of the night?¡± A dry raspy voice asked as Adia yelped in shock. ¡°Haaa¡± she screamed loudly, turning around in an instant, but she didn¡¯t see Sebastian, because she was sure it¡¯s his voice he heard. ¡°You scared me, where are you?¡± She asked looking around,Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. ¡°Over here¡± Sebastian responded as Adia followed his voice as her eyes traveled to the window. She walked closer to the window, but still couldn¡¯t see him. ¡°Where are you?¡± She asked again, ¡°I¡¯m right here¡± he replied in his deep voice startling Adia as she screamed in shock again. ¡°What are you doing there?¡± She asked horrified as she opened the window, he was literally hanging on the wall leisurely, that¡¯s why she couldn¡¯t see him. ¡°I was having a good time in the garden when I heard my name, what do you want?¡± He asked as Adia studied him, with disheveled hair that still made him look breathtaking, he was wearing a shirt with the first few buttons undone, Adia couldn¡¯t help but admire the tattoos peeking out of his chest, she didn¡¯t fail to notice the cigarette between his hands. ¡°You were smoking?¡± She asked, ignoring his questions. ¡°Obviously, why are you here, you¡¯re supposed to be sleeping¡± ¡°I came to talk to you, and I can¡¯t sleep, so¡­¡± Adia replied, shrugging her shoulders. ¡± Go to bed, we¡¯ll talk tomorrow¡± ¡°I don¡¯t feel sleepy at all, can I join you?¡± Adia asked, staring at him with pleading eyes as he gave her a long look. ¡°Grab a sweater, it¡¯s cold outside¡± he said, ¡°But I can¡¯t go to my room I get a coat, that¡¯s a long walk from here¡± Adiained, ¡°You can take mine, it¡¯s over there¡± he said pointing at the cushion where his sweatery. ¡°Thanks¡± Adia said happily, rushing to the cushion as she collected the sweater before putting it on, it was so obvious he just wore it, as his smell lingered around her, he smelt so nice. Adia looked at the sweater that stopped below her knees, it¡¯s so big, coupled with her oversized pajamas, she looked like a bunny now. ¡°How do I get out?¡± Adia asked, walking to the window as Sebastian¡¯s eyes traveled round her body. ¡°I¡¯ll carry you, climb¡± he said as Adia gasped out appalled, ¡± How do you expect me to climb?¡± She questioned in fear, ¡± Come on, you¡¯re not gonna get hurt, don¡¯t you trust me?¡± He asked as their eyes met. ¡± I do, but¡­¡± ¡°I don¡¯t mind leaving you behind you know¡± he snapped, ready to leap off as Adia quickly held his arm. ¡°Ok, ok,¡± she obliged, putting her legs outside the window one after the other, now that she¡¯s now sitting on it, but facing outside. ¡°Jesus¡­.¡± Adia heaved as she looked down, she¡¯s basically sitting on the window of a house that has five floors. ¡°What is it?¡± Sebastian scoffed as his lips drew in a thin line. ¡°It¡¯s so far from up here, no human will survive a fall from here¡± she stuttered, ¡°You¡¯re gonna jump down and I¡¯ll catch you¡± Sebastian informed as Adia¡¯s eyes grew wide. ¡°There¡¯s no way I¡¯m jumping down this ce,¡± she said, holding the reins of the window tight. ¡± That¡¯s the thing about you humans, you guys are so weak¡± he scoffed, holding her by her waist and the next second they were already off the window as Sebastiannded safely on the ground. ¡°You know what you looked like a cat each time you¡¯re doing this¡± Adia stated arranging her clothes, ¡°Doing what?¡± Sebastian questioned leading her into a dark path, ¡°When yound, you know your vampire thing, I always admire you¡± she said truthfully, he looks so hot each time le leaos away especially when he¡¯snding. ¡°Everyone admires me,¡± he said proudly as Adia rolled her eyes. ¡°That¡¯s a lie, I hated you when we first met, a lot¡± Adia emphasized as Sebastian stopped walking as he turned to face her. ¡°That¡¯s because of the circumstances then, if what happened didn¡¯t happen, you would have fallen for me at the first sight, even at that, I know you couldn¡¯t help but admire me at the hotel room the next day¡± he conveyed continuing on his tracks, remembering the night that changed his life forever, that was the first time a woman was ever raising her hands on him, the fact that Adia pped him and still walked out breathing, is still surprising to him up to the day. ¡± Not to talk of that, you still ended up falling for me, even though I¡¯ve been anything but good to you, no one can resist my charms Adia¡± he stated as a matter of factly. ¡± I¡­¡± Adia mumbled but swallowed her words, as she stared at his back which was facing her. Everything he said was true, even after what happened she still admired h, though she hated him to the core then, she couldn¡¯t help but wonder how a human could be this good looking, and it¡¯s still a mystery to her, on how she ended up loving him, the feelings just came even before she realized it and now it¡¯s toote to go back. ¡°Do you still love her till now?¡± Adia suddenly asked as he stilled. ¡°Who?¡± ¡°Your first love, Aisling¡±. 90 Sebastian¡¯s jaw worked as he stood, ¡°Yes¡± came his blunt reply ¡°And I¡¯d love it if you don¡¯t speak about her anymore¡± he started walking away.C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org ¡°Ok, I¡¯m sorry¡± Adia apologized not wanting to ruin the good mood, cause he might just re up at her, though his reply really hit her deep, she just decided not to get angry about it. Sebastian led her into the garden to a ce where a wooden chair stood, ¡°What were you doing here all along?¡± Adia asked, sittingfortably on the chair just like he said it was really chilly outside. ¡°Receiving fresh air¡± came his reply as he sat beside her, ¡°With cigarettes and alcohol¡± Adia added, seeing a bottle of tequ, a pack of cigarettes and a bottle beside her. ¡°Yes, pass me that¡± he said as Adia gave everything to him. ¡°I would have loved to join you, but I¡¯m pregnant and can¡¯t take alcohol¡± she said watching him fill the cup with alcohol as he gulped down the contents in the cup, repeating the same thing. ¡± I¡¯d really love to have something to chew and cold milk¡± she spoke turning to face him, biting her lips nervously, the answer she wants to hear from him now is, Ok I¡¯ll get you that, I¡¯ll be back in a jiffy, then he¡¯ll speed off using his vampire powers, but she knows deep within her that will never happen, it¡¯ll just remain buried deep in her imagination. ¡°I¡¯ll go get them for you¡± he suddenly said as if he read her mouth as Adia choked out in surprise. ¡°You¡¯ll what?¡± ¡°Didn¡¯t you say, you wanted something to chew, I¡¯ll go get them¡± he repeated cing his bottle of tequ on the chair, in the space between them, he got up on his feet and leaped off,nding on the window of his study room as he got inside. Adia looked up admiring the sky with the beautiful stars adoring it, it looked so magical and the fact that Sebastian was with her made it more magical. Two minutester, Sebastian returned with a packet of potato chips and a can of milk. ¡°Wow, you brought my favorite chips¡± Adia squealed happily collecting the things from him, this was literally her favorite and she has lots of this stuffed in her room. ¡°Where did you get this?¡± She asked because she only kept it in her room and nowhere else, how did Sebastian even know that, that¡¯s what she likes?, She asked herself suspiciously. ¡°Your room¡± ¡°Ok, how did you even know I like this?¡± She asked eating from her potato chips. ¡°Cause I Know, what is it you wanted to talk about?¡± He queried avoiding that topic, ¡± Well I want to start going for my antenatal¡± she informed, ¡± No¡± came his shocking reply as Adia choked on what she was eating. He never ceases to amaze her, ¡± Just like that, you didn¡¯t even think it through¡± she eximed, ¡± There¡¯s nothing to think through Adia, you¡¯re carrying vampire babies, do going for antenatal Is not necessary, Evans will take care if everything¡± he exined to her, actually this matter has crossed his mind before, but he didn¡¯t see any need for it. ¡± Ok, if you say so, bute to think of it, what are the chances my children are vampires, I¡¯m a human too right, so that mighte out as humans, don¡¯t you think?¡± She reasoned, ¡± They¡¯re hybrids Adia, half human, half vampires, they carry both Gene in them¡± ¡± But how did you know they¡¯re twins?¡± She asked because she¡¯s never gone to the hospital to check the sex of the child she¡¯s carrying, ever since she got pregnant. ¡± I can hear their heartbeats ¡± ¡± Heartbeats..¡± Adia uttered softly, rubbing her stomach gently. ¡± Hmm, hmm¡± he nodded, puffing smoke from his mouth, releasing it into the air. ¡°Wow,¡± Adia eximed, she¡¯s feeling so happy now, the joy of knowing her children are growing well, ¡°I¡¯m so happy Sebastian, I¡¯m so delighted to hear this, I already love them so much, even now they¡¯re growing inside of me¡± she muttered as Sebastian just nodded. Truthfully, this conversation was not a good news to him as it was to Adia, she¡¯s feeling very happy with hopes that she¡¯s gonna see them soon and hold them, but deep within him, he knows she¡¯s not gonna live to see them, this pregnancy is gonna bring her nothing but pain and suffering. He¡¯s been trying a his best to find a solution but hase up with nothing, his only hope now is a witch, so they can do their witchy spells and all, but the problem now is where to find one, because witches have gone extinct, they were all burned to death years ago by vampires, so there¡¯s not even a chance that anyone exist, though they¡¯ve been rumors of a witch being spotted, if they don¡¯t find one, there¡¯s no hope for Adia. ¡°I really want them to grow with the love of a mother and father,¡± she said smiling widely, today is a really good day for her. ¡°Sebastian¡± she called, gaining his attention. ¡°Don¡¯t you think the sky looks so beautiful tonight?¡± She asked looking up. ¡°Yes¡± ¡°Seriously Seb, you¡¯re not even looking up ¡± she stated, ¡°They¡¯re beautiful,¡± he confessed, looking up at the sky. ¡°Just like your eyes¡± he added as Adia eyes grew wide like saucers. ¡°Hmmm..¡± ¡°Have I ever told you before how beautiful your eyes are?¡± He asked ¡°No..¡± Adia muttered stunned by his words, ¡± Then you have very beautiful eyes, Adia¡± he announced, staring at her with his unwavering eyes. ¡°Is he high on alcohol? Why is he saying these things?¡± Adia mumbled to herself, because his words are really scaring her now. ¡°I¡¯m not drunk Adia, vampires don¡¯t get drunk at least not by this¡± he said referring to the tequ he was holding. ¡± You¡¯ll need hundreds of these to take me down, besides I¡¯m just being sincere,¡± he added. ¡± I¡­i.. thank you¡± Adia uttered blushing hard, hispliment really means a lot to her, at least now she knows he notices something about her. ¡°Least I forget, you have a party to prepare for, I¡¯ll send in everything you¡¯ll need tomorrow¡± he announced, cing the cigarette between his hands on his lips as he drew a smoke from it, releasing it in the air. 91 ¡°What party?¡± Adia asked confused, ¡°I can¡¯t believe you forgot about that..¡± he started smacking his lips. ¡± Forgot about what?¡± She asked, still confused, because she doesn¡¯t remember any party she has to attend. ¡± So you forgot all about the bet you had with Lana Rhoades, you had a deal with her to convince me toe to a party with you¡± he reminded. ¡± Oh my gosh, oh my gosh¡± Adia gasped, she totally forgot about all that, after everything that happened between her and Kate, that totally escaped her. ¡± Geez, I totally forgot about that, when¡¯s the party and wait how did you even know about that?, I don¡¯t even remember asking you¡± Adia asked because Laura told her that he has never attended the party, so she¡¯s been nning on how to convince him toe with her, but she never even had the chance. ¡± Because I¡¯m a vampire, ¡± he drawled, he can¡¯t even count how many times he has reminded her of that. ¡°So you do hear our conversation?¡± She said pointing usingly at him. ¡°If I want to,¡± he answered. ¡°So you¡¯re trying to say you¡¯re going to the party with me?¡± She asked, remarkably shocked beyond measure. ¡± Yes¡± ¡± Just like that¡± ¡°I¡¯m already feeling sleepy, I¡¯m going in¡± he chimed him getting up on his feet. ¡°Do vampires sleep?¡± She asked to going after him. ¡°Not necessary¡± he responded, ¡°But you want to sleep?¡± ¡°Because I¡¯m tired¡± he stated as Adia scoffed loudly, ¡°You know what you must really love joking, a lot¡± she emphasizedughing because the word tired and Sebastian doesn¡¯t work, this man is always full of strength, who will ever believe he¡¯s tired. ¡± Believe it or not then¡± He said carrying her up, ¡± Why don¡¯t you like using the main door?¡± She asked him as he leaped to his room¡¯s window, this time he didn¡¯t use his study. ¡± Because I hate unnecessary attention¡± he replied dropping Adia safely as he helped her through the window, ¡± This is your house and it¡¯ste¡± Adia reflected, finding no good reason why he should behave like a thief in his own house. ¡± You of all people should know how much I love my privacy,¡± he said, getting into his room as he closed the window after getting in. ¡± I want to follow you to the office tomorrow¡± she voiced out hoping for him to say yes. ¡± Ok,¡± he said, climbing on his bed, as heid on it. ¡± Thank you¡± Adia appreciated watching him as he took afortable sleeping position,This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org. Is he really tired or is just trying to get rid of me?, She reasoned watching as he closed his eyes to sleep. ¡°I want to sleep beside you tonight¡± she uttered silently, not knowing what made her say that, but she really wanted to sleep beside him, wrapped in his warm embrace. ¡°Suit yourself¡± he said inaudibly but loud enough for Adia to hear what he said, he just told her to suit herself when she asked to sleep beside him, that only means that he doesn¡¯t mind or what?, Adia didn¡¯t care anymore as she decided to suit herself and that¡¯s by sleeping beside him. Without having any second thoughts, Adia climbed on the bed slowly so as to not to make any noise to disturb him, so he¡¯ll not change his mind. She got under the duvet maintaining a far distance from him, thankfully the bed was very big, Adia grinned as she closed her eyes to sleep, today can not get any better than this for her. .. .. .. Sebastian opened his eyes slowly, feeling a warm body on his, he was startled to see Adia cuddled up with him, his hands around her waist and her leg on his crotch, HIS CROTCH!!!!. Sebastian¡¯s eyes opened wide like saucers, as he looked at her, she looks so peaceful while she slept, while his being tortured here, he just felt like having a good restst night, and decided to sleep tight, he didn¡¯t even think it through when he agreed to her request to sleep beside him, now he¡¯s getting tortured. Slowly and quietly, he removed his hand from her waist as he carefully removed her leg from his crotch, which was now standing tall and proud. Adia was so lucky that she¡¯s asleep now, or not she would have definitely taken care of it and put it back down. Sebastian heaved as he turned to face her, honestly she looked so pretty while she slept, almost like a beauty goddess, if not more than than, his eyes unconsciously traveled to her lips, the urge to kiss her and damn her just came in, he really wanted to taste this deliciously looking lips again, the fact that she stirred up reactions within him, worried Sebastian, because it was clearly not a good sign, it will have to stop, she was nothing but a big temptation to him. Getting out of the bed quietly, he walked out of the room like a thief, leaving as if he was never there. He needed some time to think and calm down, he thought to himself, leaving Adia to sleep. ¡°Sir¡± Monica called immediately. Sebastian got out of his room, she was about to knock on the door, thank goodness, he came out just in time. ¡°Good morning sir,¡± she greeted with her head bowed down in respect. ¡°Um, sir..¡± Monica began seeing he was obviously waiting for her to say whatever she wanted to say. ¡°Well it¡¯s Adia, I went to her room this morning but couldn¡¯t find her¡± Monica reported sounding worried. ¡°She¡¯s in my room, she¡¯s still sleeping, so don¡¯t disturb her, tell the maids to prepare her breakfast and heat it up whenever she wakes up¡± he ordered walking away wondering what Adia saw in the girl she decided to make a sister. ¡°Ok sir¡± Monica said with her head still down as Sebastian left her sight, even though Adia stripped her off her maid duties, he¡¯s still her boss and nothing can change that, so she¡¯ll always ord him with respect. By the way, did she just hear right? What¡¯s Adia doing in Sebastian¡¯s room? She basically spent the night there, when did that happen? Monica pondered to herself speechlessly. ¡°Have Adia and Sebastian started having¡­.. haaa¡± Monica gasped covering up her mouth from saying anything further, She just can¡¯t believe it, so they¡¯ve started getting intimate with each other. Sebastian already likes Adia? Monica reasoned walking downstairs with different thoughts running in her head. 92 ¡°Am done now, we can get going. ¡± Adia announced, wrapping up her breakfast as she wiped the corner of her lips with a serviette, looking up at Sebastian who just sat patiently waiting for her. She literally overslept today and woke up past nine even after telling Sebastian she was going to follow him to the office, but it was not her fault that she enjoyed her sleep and overslept. When she woke up, she was expecting Sebastian to be long gone, but was surprised to hear from Monica that he was still waiting for her, she had to hasten up in all she did, from freshening up, dressing up and having breakfast, so she¡¯ll not get him angry, but he didn¡¯t look angry as his face just held a calm facade. ¡°Let¡¯s go¡± he said getting up on his feet, ¡°Good morning, Mick¡± Adia waved at Mickelson who stood beside Malcolm, as Sebastian brows furrowed the moment she mentioned Mick. ¡°Good morning ma¡¯am,¡± Mickelson replied, bowing in respect. ¡°Let¡¯s go¡± she picked up her purse walking close to Sebastian as they both left for work. .. .. .. ¡°Why are you calling him Mick?¡± He asked as they headed to the car. ¡°Because mickelson is a pretty long name, besides I gave him the nickname, it¡¯s nice right?¡± she questioned, ¡± No¡± Sebastian snapped ¡°Sebastian¡¯s long too, you call me Sebastian¡±he added ¡°I Know but¡­wait¡± Adia paused, ¡± Are you jealous?¡± she asked as she burst outughing. ¡± Not at all, I just don¡¯t like the sound of nicknames in my ears, so don¡¯t ever call him Mickelson again, ever¡± he deadpanned as they got to the car. ¡± But sometimes I call you Seb, and you do answer¡± ¡± Because I¡¯m Sebastian¡± he said, as they got to where the car was parked. ¡± Get in,¡± he said, walking to the driver¡¯s seat. ¡± You¡¯re driving?¡± Adia asked puzzled, ¡± Yes,¡± he replied, getting into the car. ¡± What about Malcolm and Mickelson?¡± She asked following suit. ¡± They¡¯ll use the other car¡± he replied, fastening his seat belt as he started the car. ¡°Your seat belt¡± he pointed out to Adia, who fastened her seat belt. ¡°Why did¡­¡± ¡°Haven¡¯t you made mete already, I have a meeting, no more questions¡± he said zooming off. Adia looked outside the window smiling uncontrobly as she admired the environment, it¡¯s so obvious he was jealous when she called Mickelson by his nickname, he just don¡¯t want to ept it, knowing that Sebastian was jealous of someone because of her, really made her feel special, that she just can¡¯t stop smiling. .. .. .. ¡°My love, I have missed you,¡± Laura pouted, engulfing Adia in a tight hug. ¡°Me too, I missed this ce¡± Adia responded, she really missed Laura and everything around here. ¡°You im you missed me, but you didn¡¯t even bother toe and say hi or even know how I was faring, you didn¡¯t even call¡± Adia stated as they broke from each other¡¯s hug, throughout the time she was hospitalized, she didn¡¯t even hear from Laura, not to talk of Laura visiting her, there was not even a phone call, sane with Logan, it¡¯s like Logan just disappeared into thin air, as she¡¯s not been able to reach him, he just ghosted her, after sending a farewell Text message to her and she won¡¯t even date and ask Sebastian about him, she has no idea of what¡¯s going on between both brothers, but one thing is certain Sebastian gates Logan Moreau. ¡°I¡¯m so sorry, I really wanted toe, but I was stuck here with work and all sir Sebastian didn¡¯t even show up, and that didn¡¯t help issues at all, it was just me, and you know how hectic work can be, even when it¡¯s the two of us, do don¡¯t me me, i had conferences, meetings to attend, just me, I¡¯m so sorry, but Know that I love you and I missed you a lot¡± Laura exined, breathlessly, she really missed Adia, and it¡¯s not her fault she never got to reach her to ask after her. ¡± Come here¡± Adia opened her hands wide as they both hugged each other for the second time. .. .. .. ¡± So how have you been managing?¡± Adia asked Laura as she helped her with sine work, Sebastian was currently in a business meeting now. ¡°Pretty well, I guess and thanks to Rowan, it¡¯s been a little easier¡± Laura stated, ¡°Rowan??¡± ¡°Yes, he¡¯s been helping me around here, oh, I need to tell you something¡± she began as Adia gave her rapt attention ¡°Well, Rowan and I are dating¡± she broke out happily as Adia gasped Loudly. ¡°Dating??¡± She squealed, the news was so shocking to her. ¡°Yes, though we just started dating, and it doesn¡¯t feel like we¡¯re dating at all¡± Laura expressed with a frown. ¡°Why, what happened?¡± ¡°Well, we¡¯ve been flirting for months and just made the rtionship official, but it just doesn¡¯t settle well with me, though I do love him, a lot, and I¡¯m sure he loves me as well, but the thing is, we hardly have time for each other, either one of us is too busy for the other, it¡¯s always work, work, work, we¡¯ve never gone on a proper date before, we don¡¯t even do what couples do, everything is just seriousness and work¡± Laurained bitterly, ¡± And you want to know the most crazy fact of this, it¡¯s that we¡¯ve never had sex before, it¡¯s either a calles in, when we¡¯re about to do the deed,¡± Laura added, it really hurts her. ¡± I understand your pain, I really do, at least we understand that he¡¯s not ignoring you, it¡¯s just duty calls¡± Adia coaxed, she doesn¡¯t know much about Rowan, as she rarely speaks and just goes with his normal life and only shows up when he¡¯s needed, she¡¯s sure he¡¯s a great guy. ¡°I Know he loves me, I can feel it¡± ¡°I have an idea,¡± Adia said as Laura enthusiastically looked at her. ¡°And¡­..¡± ¡°Why don¡¯t you guys go on a vacation, just the two of you, no duty calls, no work, just the two of you¡± Adia proposed as Laura bought the idea. ¡°I love that, really, I do, but will Rowan and sir Sebastian ept that¡±Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. ¡± Leave that for me, right now, just focus on your uing vacation¡± Adia assured as Laura hugged her again. ¡± I love you Adia, you¡¯re the best¡± she pouted as Adia caressed her back softly. 93 Sebastian held Adia¡¯s hands as he led her out of his car. They just arrived at the party, Adia was putting on a very beautiful gown that fitted her perfectly, while Sebastian wore a three piece boglioli suit, ¡°Make sure you speak to no one¡± he whispered to Adia, as they both walked into the ground, their hands entwined together. ¡°Alright¡­¡± ¡°And don¡¯t leave my sight,¡± he added, thankfully, this is a mask party so no one will easily recognize Adia. ¡°But why?¡± She asked feeling the gaze on people on her, but who wouldn¡¯t stare, Sebastian is looking so strikingly handsome regardless of the fact he¡¯s putting on a mask. ¡°For your safety¡± he responded. ¡°Ok¡­¡± Adia drawled Wondering if she was still unsafe here, like it¡¯s just a party and who would want to hurt but then she forgot vampires were also involved in this. .. .. .. ¡°Hello¡± someone said from behind Asia as she turned to face the person. ¡°Hey¡­.¡± She drawled out looking at the strange man standing in front of her, unfortunately they¡¯re attending a mask party and she couldn¡¯t see his face. ¡°I¡¯m Beau, ¡± he introduced extending his hand out for a handshake which Adia politely refused, she doesn¡¯t know anyone around here and Sebastian warned her clearly not to speak to anybody that she finds unfamiliar, They were currently at the party, the one her and Lana Rhoades had a bet over, and she obviously won the bet, without even having to sweat about it, Sebastian was the one that even reminded her of it, because she literally forgot about the bet, vampire stuff filling her head. ¡°Ohe on, no need to be rude..¡± he chuckled as Adia observed him, six feet tall, dark skinned, with a low haircut, someone she hasn¡¯t met before, or even seen. ¡°I¡¯m not being rude, it¡¯s just that I find you unfamiliar¡± she muttered, eyeing him from head to toe, something just felt eerie about him, his presence just didn¡¯t sit well with her, like he was exuding an Aura that kind of scared her. ¡°Haha, friends weren¡¯t born together, they were born as strangers unknown to one another, they just met and became friends, so¡­I¡¯m Beau, what about you?¡± He gave out a shortugh, extending his hands out for the second time as his lips curved up in a wide smile. ¡± It¡¯s Adia,¡± Adia responded epting the handshake, but quickly retracted back her hand two secondster. ¡± I haven¡¯t seen you around here before, who are you with?¡± He asked, staring intently at her, looking at her from head to toe, not removing his gaze from her body, making Adia shift ufortably, pondering on why he¡¯s staring at her this way. ¡± You¡¯re not seeing my face, so you don¡¯t know what I look like¡± Adia pointed out with a sneer, literally everyone had their face covered here with a mask. ¡± True.. hm¡± he muttered as he smacked his lips. ¡± Well then can I get your contact, so we can meet after today?¡± He politely expressed his thoughts putting on his best smile, ¡± No,¡± Adia spat wondering if he never gets tired of smiling, that smile had not fallen from his face since the time he approached her. ¡± Ouch, that hurt¡± he spouted holding his chest as if it was hurting him. ¡± Excuse me..¡± Adia said slowly walking away from his sight, he looks like someone who¡¯s be so annoying.All content is ? N0velDrama.Org. ¡°Drink¡­¡± a waiter served pointing a tray forward at Adia. ¡°Yes please¡± she mouthed, collecting the drink as the waiter walked away. She really needs to calm herself down. ¡°What a strange fellow,¡± she mumbled to herself, referring to Beau, the strange man who approached her earlier. Looking around she wondered where Sebastian was, he just disappeared saying he would be back and yet she has not even caught sight of him, speaking of Lana Rhoades, she¡¯s not still sen her around, she thought they had a bet together, so she should be present, but why is she not in sight. ¡°Miss Adia¡± Mickelson called walking briskly to her. ¡°Yes Mick, where¡¯s Sebastian? I¡¯ve been waiting for him for some time now?¡± She asked Mickelson who stood in front of her. ¡± He asked me to get you,¡± Mickelson reported with a hint of urgency in his voice. ¡°But why?, We just arrived¡± Adia voiced out, ¡°I¡¯m just following sir Sebastian¡¯s orders¡± he said. ¡°Alright then, Let¡¯s go then¡± she responded, following behind him. ¡± You sent for me, why?¡± Adia asked Sebastian immediately and Mickelson got to a VIPs suite that was located at the hotel. Adia looked around the luxurious room wondering why Sebastian called her here, she could see he had otherpany, because Ma stood beside him, as he sat elegantly on a cushion with his legs crossed out, something felt fishy. Her eyes caught sight of something that shocked her beyond measures, two people tied up a few meters away from Sebastian as they were covered up in blood, as they were both tied like thieves, she looked closely to see if she could remember their faces and was shocked to see Lana Rhoades and the waiter from earlier, now something is definitely fishy. ¡°Why are they here?¡± She asked again, walking close to Sebastian who sat without a hint of an expression on his face. ¡°Did you get any drink from him?¡± He ignored her questions as he pointed to the bloodied waiter. ¡°Yes,¡± Adia replied, he served the drink she had earlier. ¡± Bloody hell!!!¡± Sebastian eximed inaudibly, running his hands through his hair, and the next second he was already in front of the waiter as hended a punch across his face. ¡°Haaaa!!¡± Lana screamed as droplets of blood stained her face, she¡¯s been injured so badly that she doesn¡¯t think she¡¯ll ever heal. ¡°Sebastian!!¡± Adia called out loud, preventing Sebastian fromnding another punch on the bloodied waiter as his fist stopped midway in the air. ¡°What¡¯s the meaning of all these?¡± She questioned, not knowing why he f**king called her here, to witness violence?, He¡¯s clearly torturing them both for God knows why. ¡°Why are you doing this to them?¡± She asked again as Sebastian¡¯s jaw worked. ¡°Because she paid him to spike your drink and then when you¡¯re wasted, he¡¯ll rape you,¡± he spat out angrily as Adia stilled. ¡± Bastard¡± Sebastian snarled, releasing his fist on the waiter¡¯s face, as the man lost two of his teeth on the process. ¡± I¡¯m gonna kill you over and over again¡± Sebastian swore, giving him a heavy kick on his crotch. 94 ¡°What¡­¡± Adia stammered shocked beyond measure, as she wondered on what Sebastian was trying to say. Lana had ulterior motives afterall, she paid someone to drug and rape her. ¡°You¡¯ll be out of your senses few minutes from now,¡± Sebastian informednding another punch on the waiter. He knew something was wrong the moment he stepped into this ce, everything didn¡¯t sit well with him at all, that¡¯s when he decided to check for anything suspicious, and all fingers ended up pointing at Lana Rhoades. ¡± I¡­I¡­¡± ¡°Come on, we have to leave immediately¡± Sebastian informed Adia who just stood as Mickelson handed him a handkerchief which he used in wiping the blood stains off from his hands. ¡°Where are we going?¡±she asked, ¡°Home of course,¡± he replied as he paused, pulling off his suit jacket which he wrapped around Adia. ¡°Mickelsone with me, Malcolm, take these trash to the dark dungeon, and wait for me till I arrive, torture them to the point of death but make sure that stay alive, no one dies, not until I¡¯m satisfied with their suffering¡± he said holding Adia gently by her waist as he led her out of the room. ¡°What¡¯s going to happen to me now?¡± Adia asked Sebastian softly as Sebastian held her close to himself. ¡°Nothing serious, the bitch confessed she used a pretty strong drug, so you¡¯re going to be intoxicated for like three hours, five hours to the most¡± he exined, ¡± But why would she do that?¡± Adia asked inaudibly but Sebastian could hear her loud and clear. ¡± Because she¡¯s not a Friend, beware of the people surrounding you Adia, you never know what their true nature might be, so you¡¯ll just have to tread with caution,¡± Sebastian advised as Adia nodded slowly, the truth Is Lana has never been a friend, each time they met, Lana always wanted to pick a fight and would say harsh words at her, but never in her wildest dreams would she think that Lana would actually n something as despicable as what she just did, drug her and then set her up for someone to rape. ¡°The world is not a safe ce, Adia, ¡± he added. ¡°You¡¯ll always protect me right?¡± She asked, ¡°Yes, right now, your safety is my upmost priority, ¡± he answered truthfully, actually he wanted no harm or whatsoever toe to Adia, and he¡¯ll make sure no one hurts her. Adia felt a satisfying feeling wash over her, the moment he said those words, Sebastian saying he would protect her, was actually something very huge to her, those words strangely made her feel good a she felt her cheeks warming up. ¡°Um¡­ Sebastian¡­.¡± She hesitated before calling him. ¡°What is it..¡± he replied as he stopped walking giving her his full attention, his eyes wandered on her already flushed face, he could tell that any moment from now, she¡¯ll lose it. ¡°Nothing serious actually, it¡¯s just that my head hurts a lot¡± Adia informed, she was currently feeling a splitting headache. ¡°That¡¯s normal,e on I¡¯ll carry you..¡± he said and the next second, he had already swept her off her feet as he carried her up in a bridal style, which Adia found very strange and it was a very rare urrence. ¡°Get the car ready,¡± Sebastian instructed Mickelson who hurried away. Sebastian walked through the party ground with Adia still carried on his arms as he found his way out, the party was still ongoing, and stared at him bewildered the moment they set their eyes on him, especially the women. They were really curious about the woman he was carrying, as she had her head buried on his chest, making it impossible for people to see her , do it was really hard to know who she was. But that doesn¡¯t mean they didn¡¯t recognize Sebastian, his mask had unintentionally fallen off when he was dealing with Lana Rhoades and he totally forgot to put it back on, but he cared less about that now, all that was in his head now was all about Adia. ¡°Sir the car is ready..¡± Mickelson informed walking close to Sebastian, as he led him out of the party grounds. ¡°What¡¯s going to happen to me now?, I feel so weak..¡± Adia muttered as they settled in the car, while Mickelson immediately elerated away, driving as fast as he could. ¡°Just try and calm yourself down¡± Sebastian advised, staring at her face, she¡¯s looking flushed, her face crimson red down to ear lobe. ¡°I can¡¯t..¡± she breathed out roughly, not removing her gaze from his as she stared at his perfectly carved face, the urge to kiss him was so strong that she was having a hard time controlling herself. ¡± We¡¯ll soon get home, I¡¯ve already informed Monica to make you soup, it¡¯s a natural remedy and would help a lot, so just try and get a grip of yourself, hmmm, it¡¯s gonna be fine¡± he coaxed cing his hands at the side of her face as he rubbed it gently.This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org. ¡°I¡¯ll try, but I feel so hot¡­like I wanna..¡± Adia paused, taking in deep breaths, as she tried to surpass the lust building up within her, she knows it¡¯s because of the effect of whatever Lana Rhoades gave her, the fact she likes Sebastian and feels something for him that way, is also making matters worse, she really wants him. ¡°You¡¯ll get a cold shower immediately when we arrive home, we will be there in five minutes..¡± Sebastian informed looking at his wrist watch as he checked what the time was. ¡°I feel very ufortable¡­I want to¡­.¡± Adia paused as she hesitated if she should say the words she wanted to say, she didn¡¯t know how Sebastian would react to it, he tends to lose it sometimes. ¡°I want to¡­.¡± ¡°You want to ask Adia?¡± He asked softly, fixing his gray eyes on her beautiful hazel eyes. ¡°I want to kiss you..¡± she confessed, drowning in his good looks, and tempting lips. ¡°Would that make you feel better?¡± He asked as Adia nodded slowly, honestly that was the answer she expected from him. ¡°Yes.. I guess it¡¯ll make me calm down..¡± she added, biting her lips as she bent her head down. Sebastian was a big distraction to her, maybe that¡¯s what she needs now. ¡°I¡¯m sorry..¡± Adia began, seeing he¡¯s been quiet for a long time, probably he¡¯s angry at her, but she was interrupted by Sebastian who held her chin up staring intently at her. ¡°I just..¡± Adia stopped speaking the moment Sebastian leaned closer to her as he captured her lips. 95 Adia eyes grew wide like saucers the moment Sebastian¡¯s lips met with hers, She was equally shocked that he kissed her, she literally thought that he was pissed at her for asking that kind of question, but it turned out he was not. HE KISSED HER. Adia was stunned by the way Sebastian kissed her, slowly and steadily, he nibbled on her lips, sucking on it gently, as Adia¡¯s back rested on the car door, Sebastian also using his arms to support her a little bit. Adia relished the taste of his lips on hers as she kissed him back, with all she got, wrapping her hands around his neck, drawing him closer to her. ¡°Not here, Adia..¡± he whispered to her lips, his breath fanning her face, as he withdrew himself from her hold. Adia took in sharp breaths, as she tried controlling herbored breathing, that¡¯s it, short and simple, the kiss was really mind blowing as he took it slowly with her, honestly, it served as a remedy to her, as she strangely felt more better and rxed. Thank goodness he refrained himself from going further, maybe she would have not been able to control herself and just lose it, not to talk of the fact that someone else was also in the car with them, that¡¯s Mickelson, the one who was driving the car.Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. ¡°Did that help?¡± He asked, ¡°Yeah, much better..¡± Adia replied, nodding her head slowly. ¡°Come here¡­¡± he muttered, drawing her closer to himself, as he buried her head in his arms, putting her in a veryfortable position. .. .. .. ¡°I feel so dizzy¡­¡± Adia grunted as Sebastian dropped her on the bed. ¡°That¡¯s natural, all you need is a cold shower and you¡¯ll feel much better¡­¡¯ he reassured Adia, who ced her hand on her forehead, it felt as if her head was splitting into two, and like the world was revolving around her. ¡°Sir, should I get the soup I made?¡± Monica asked from behind Sebastian, as he nodded negatively. ¡± No, I¡¯ll call for thatter¡­¡± ¡°Ok, sir, let me take it from here, since what she¡¯ll need first is a cold shower.. I will take care of that..¡± Monica offered, ¡°No, I¡¯ll take care of that myself,¡± Sebastian bluntly refused as Monica choked at his words. ¡°Sir!!¡± She eximed loudly, her eyes wide like saucers. ¡°You can take your leave now, I¡¯ll call you when I need you¡­¡± he repeated as Monica nodded nervously. ¡± Oh¡­. ka¡­. y¡­¡± she stammered turning to leave, as she tried registering what was going on in her head. ¡® is he seriously gonna undress her????¡¯ Monica asked herself stunned as she managed to walk out despite the shock of what she just witnessed. After Monica closed the door behind her, Sebastian drew Adia closer to himself as he made way for her blouse. ¡°What are you doing??¡± Adia asked softly, holding his hand, to stop him from going further. ¡°Undressing you..¡± he replied, releasing himself from her hold. ¡°No!!¡± Adia snapped loudly, moving away from him. ¡°You need to calm yourself down..¡± Sebastian said, he is pretty sure she¡¯s feeling hot. ¡°I don¡¯t need that..¡± Adia stated kneeling on top of the bed, as she crawled towards him. ¡°I need you, just you and only you¡­¡± she inwardly as she wrapped her hands around his neck. ¡°Now tell me Sebastian, aren¡¯t I beautiful enough for you to love me, hmm?¡± She pouted, forming a crying face. ¡°Answer me!!¡± She yelled, shaking him violently as Sebastian just kept her quiet. ¡°Of course you won¡¯t say a word, that¡¯s how you are, ohhh¡± Adia signed loudly, ¡°I really wish Logan was you, I Know he would have showered me with lots¡­¡­of love..¡± Adia deadpanned smiling, ¡± But he¡¯s not you, you¡¯re Sebastian, and I love Sebastian, oh jeez¡­maybe I should have fallen in love with Logan instead, what do you think?¡± She asked, cing her finger on the bridge of his nose as Sebastian just held a stoic face. ¡± Maybe if I had fallen for him instead, I will just leave with him, to live happily, not stay here, trying to impress someone, that will never look my way¡­I hate you so much¡­¡± Adia grunted, ¡± That¡¯s enough, Adia¡­¡± he said, trying his best to be calm, she was intoxicated and had no idea about what she¡¯s saying, with time she¡¯lle to her senses, she didn¡¯t mean any of this, Sebastian reassured himself. ¡°No!!, It¡¯s not enough at all..¡± Adia groaned, moving her eyes to his lips, as she swallowed deep. ¡°I want to kiss you, I seriously want to taste those deliciously looking lips of yours, permit me..¡± she blurted out, leaning closer to Sebastian, but was held back by him, Sebastian ran his other hands through his hair as he thought of what to do, he has never being in a situation like this, she¡¯s looking so red now, and seductive, that he¡¯s finding it hard to control himself. ¡°I Know you¡¯ll stop me, to always do, you always find me unattractive, when they all say I look like Aisling¡­ oh shit..¡± Adia cursed, ¡± Kiss me Sebastian..¡± she said in amanding tone as she smiled like a child. ¡± Don¡¯t worry, I know, you will do nothing, I will do that honor myself¡­¡± she uttered, before Sebastian could even register anything else, his back has already hit the bed, that Adia was now straddling him, he was so upied by his thoughts that he didn¡¯t even know when she made that move, and howe she¡¯s so strong. Adia made way for his lips, as she mmed her lips on his kissing him recklessly, as Sebastian justid down motionless. ¡°Hmm, howe you taste this good..¡± Adia asked in between kisses, as she moved her hands swiftly to his crotch, grabbing it tight as Sebastian¡¯s eyes flew open. Where the fuck did Adia learn these this from?, He asked stunned by what just yed out. ¡± You¡¯re so hard..¡± Adia confessed, still gripping his crotch, that¡¯s when Sebastian lost it, if he doesn¡¯t do something, he might do something he will regret, something that will not be beneficial to him at all. Holding her waist her removed her from his body as he carried her to the bathroom in a swift move, he ced her carefully into the bath tub, as she switched on the tap for cold water to flow through. ¡°Monica!!!¡± He called as his voice thundered all over the ce, the next minute, Monica had alreadye running over. ¡°Sir..¡±she replied, wondering why he needed her presence, just ten minutes after he dismissed her. ¡°Take care of Adia¡­ ¡± he ordered, pointing at the bathroom, before leaving the ce immediately. ¡°Ok sir¡­.¡± Monica responded rushing to the bathroom, where she saw Adia, with her clothes still on, as sheid in the bathtub with water flowing into it, she quickly switched off the tap, as she rushed to Adia to tend to her, Wondering on what transpired between them, that made Sebastian change his mind about helping her shower instead. 96 ¡°I sincerely apologize for whatever stunt I pulledst night..¡± Adia apologized walking beside Sebastian. ¡°I thought I said never to talk about that ever again.¡± Sebastian phrased out taking his seat at the dining table. He just can¡¯t understand why Adia woke up this morning and the next thing she resorted to was apologizing for what she did. ¡°I literally acted out of it..¡± Adia voiced out taking her seat also, she woke up this morning with a serious headache, she really wished she couldn¡¯t remember all what she did, but they all came flooding in, she said many things, that she¡¯s so ashamed of herself now, she¡¯s literally embarrassed, and she kissed also, why didn¡¯t she just forget all that happened. ¡°Because you were drunk,¡± Sebastian corrected, sipping from his coffee cup. ¡°That¡¯s why I¡¯m apologizing, I should have heeded your warning, and rejected anything from a strange person..¡± ¡°And that¡¯s seriously not your fault, Adia..¡± Sebastian called as Adia looked up at him. ¡± Yes,¡± she responded, ¡°No more words from you about yesterday¡­¡± he warned with a very serious expression as Adia nodded slowly as she faced her food. Sebastian had a really hard time yesterday, he had a really hard time controlling himself from doing anything nasty, Adia is really torture, how could she just turn in on, unintentionally, she was basically drunk and acted stupid, she also said stupid things, but those silly acts of hers is a big torture to him. ¡°What about Lana Rhoades and the waiter she sent?¡± Adia asked, the tension bing overbearing fir her, maybe conversing with each other can help her ease the tension. ¡°I will take care of that, you don¡¯t have to worry about that..¡± Sebastian reassured as Adia smiled at him, hoping he didn¡¯t spill blood, but that was inevitable, Lana Rhoades is likely to be dead, she just messed with the wrong person. ¡°By the way I¡­¡± Adia paused feeling something very uneasy within her, ¡°You what?¡± Sebastian inquired lifting up his gaze seeing she¡¯s been quiet for too long. ¡°You wh.. at..¡± Sebastian stammered his words dropping, as he saw Adia gripping on the table cloth hard as if in pain as tears dropped slowly from her eyes. ¡°Adia, are you alright?¡± He asked alerted, ¡°Adia¡­¡± Sebastian called standing up from the chair, as he walked to where she sat. ¡± Adia¡­¡± he called again, this time a little confused as he held her shoulders. ¡°What the hell is going on with you?¡± He asked, he began to notice that Adia was muttering something to herself, ¡°Adia..¡± he said leaning closer to her, so he could hear what she was mumbling to herself, and was so shocked at what he heard. Ple¡­ ase do.. n¡¯t kil.. l me, spa¡­re m¡­e¡­.¡± He heard her say, as he looked around to see if anyone else was in the room, because it seems like Adia was speaking to someone and her mind was certainly not here. ¡°Don¡¯t kill me!!!¡± She suddenly yelled throwing off the table cover as all the tes fell on the floor making a ear deafening shattering sound, breaking into smaller pieces, as food and drinks sprawled out everywhere in the dining room, some of the pieces grazing he skin a little resulting in injuries, the same thing happened to Sebastian but the injuries were quick to heal up because of his vampiric self. ¡°Adia!!¡± Sebastian yelled at her, hoping to bring her out from whatever hypnotized state she was in, because she looked like someone who¡¯s been hypnotized. ¡°Don¡¯t fucking shout at me and let me go¡­¡± Adia screamed, using all her strength to push off Sebastian as she ran off, going upstairs. ¡± Adia are you alrig¡­.¡± ¡°Let me go!!¡± Adia yelled, pushing Monica aside as she ran up the stairs, bolting into the nearest room which she locked behind her. Monica hade running down here, when she heard the sound of tes breaking, and came to see the dining room in a total mess, Adia behaving weird as Sebastian looked confused for the first time in history. ¡°Adia¡­¡± she called facing Sebastian, who was still standing there as if something was going through his mind. ¡°Sir¡­¡± ¡°Follow her..¡± he ordered not waiting for her to say anymore word, as he headed for the room Adia ran into. ¡°Haaaa!!!¡± Adia screams were heard, along with the sound of items breaking on the floor. ¡°Let me go!!, Haaa!!¡± She yelled as she broke another item on the floor. ¡°Sir what¡¯s happening to Ad.. ia?¡± Monica asked her, alerted, Adia Is acting like someone who has lost it. Sebastian ignored Monica¡¯s question as she turned the door knob, as he realized Adia had locked the door, he had no choice but to burst the door open. ¡°Adia..¡± he called walking into the room, which was in you total ruins, broken ssesid everywhere on the floor, his eyes searched through the room as he tried to find Adia, he noticed a petite figure wrapped up at a corner shivering In fright, like someone who has been scared to death. ¡°Adia¡­¡± he called rushing to meet her, as he squatted before her, the moment he got to where she was, she looked scared and was covered in sweat, as she shivered.. ¡°Don¡¯t hurt me please¡­¡± she begged as she sobbed, ¡°No one¡¯s going to hurt you Adia..¡± he whispered softly while holding her. ¡°She¡¯sing to kill me, please help me..¡± she cried holding Sebastian tight as she buried her head on his chest. ¡°No one¡¯sing to kill you,¡± he reassured, patting her back softly, this is definitely not an effect of alcohol. ¡°She swore to kill me, please help me..¡± ¡°I will not let her get to you, you just have to calm down, I won¡¯t let anyone hurt you..¡± he coaxed, ¡± She pro¡­mised to me, sh.. e¡¯ll ki.. ll me..¡± Adia stammered, it was so obvious to Sebastian and Monica that she was seeing things. ¡± I¡¯ll protect you them..¡± he promised, still Patting her back, thankfully she calmed down, as her breathing became steady, though she still made cry sounds from time to time.C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org ¡± Sebastian..¡± Adia called softly, havinge back to her right senses, as she raised her head from his chest to meet his eyes, which was mixed with both worry and intense anger. ¡± What.. hap.. pene. d?¡± Adia asked as she caught sight of Monica who was standing behind them with a worried look on her face the room was in a total mess, it seems as if she¡¯s been crying and screaming, she was parched, abd her face was also dry with tears, she felt pains on her body as her whole body ached her, she didn¡¯t fail to notice the injuries on her body, which were gotten from ss cuts, that when she realized, SHE HAPPENED, ADIA HAPPENED. 97 ¡°What have I done?¡± She asked shakily with shuddering breaths, ¡°We need to get you out of here..¡± Sebastian whispered, carrying Adia up on his arms. ¡°Monica, tell the maids to take care of this mess¡± he ordered carrying Adia out of the room, the noise of breaking sses heard, as he left. .. .. .. ¡°What happened Sebastian?¡± Adia asked Sebastian who was busy trying her hair, she just had her bath, and Sebastian had cleaned up all her wounds, and now he¡¯s drying her hair, which was a surprise to her, but now wasn¡¯t the time for any of that, as nothing but anger was evident in his face, he hasn¡¯t even said a word to her since, so she decided to ask about what happened. ¡°You lost it¡­you just began screaming don¡¯t kill me all of a sudden, what did you see Adia?¡± He asked her in a dangerously low voice, he¡¯ll need to get the details of what she saw or what ever triggered her to act that way, before doing anything, but he just hoped it wasn¡¯t what he suspected it to be. ¡°I don¡¯t know¡­¡± Adia signed loudly, she basically had no idea what she acted that way, or how she even acted. The only thing she could point her finger to was that she was really frightened to her bones and it was as if she would die soon. ¡°My memory is vague about that, no matter how hard I try to put the pieces together, I only get weed by a splitting headache, nothing else, but there is this feeling¡­.¡± She said trying to fathom how she feels now. ¡± What feeling?¡± Sebastian inquired, dropping the hair dryer on the table.C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org ¡± I feel fear, and that fear is still lingering Inside of me, I¡¯m scared Sebastian¡± Adia confessed, ¡± You don¡¯t need to be, hmm¡± he said patting her shoulders, ¡± Get some rest, I¡¯ll be out for a few hours, if you need anything, Ace, Arion, Mickelson, Ma and Monica will be around to help, just call any of them you feel morefortable with,¡± he added, as Adia nodded slowly. ¡± Ok thanks¡± ¡± And feel free to call me¡± Sebastian said heading to his room, he needed a change of clothes, he was already dressed for the office when this happened, picking his phone from his pocket, he called to inform Rowan that he¡¯ll not be at work. ¡± Sebastian, where are you?¡± Rowan asked immediately he picked up the call, it¡¯s so unusual for Sebastian to bete or even miss work, Sebastian feels work is the only way to get his head off things. ¡± An important issue came up, I¡¯m not sure I¡¯ll be able to make it today, just take care of everything..¡± Sebastian said, ¡± Does it have anything to do with Adia?¡± Rowan inquired, so far, Adia¡¯s issues are the only things that have been able to keep Sebastian away from work, it¡¯s either one thing or the other. ¡± Sadly yes¡± Sebastian replied, taking in a deep breath. ¡°What¡¯s wrong this time around?¡± ¡°She¡¯s behaving strange¡­as if she¡¯s having hallucinations, I¡¯ve got this covered, just take care of this over there¡± ¡± That wouldn¡¯t be a problem, call me if there¡¯s anything else you need¡± ¡± Ok man¡­¡± Sebastian said, disconnecting the call. ¡± What¡¯s wrong with Adia?¡± Laura asked Rowan immediately he disconnected the call, she¡¯s been with him in the office all along and heard his conversation with Sebastian, it seems as if something¡¯s wrong with Adia. ¡°Nothing serious, Sebastian has everything under control..¡± he replied drawing Laura closer to himself holding her by a waist as he nted a kiss on the lips. ¡± I really feel bad for Adia..¡± Laura said, breaking away from the kiss as she rested her head on his chest. ¡°Hmmm¡± Rowan responded nodding his head in agreement, anyone would. ¡°How do you think she would react if shees to find out about her impending death, Sebastian can¡¯t hide it forever you know¡­. nothing stays hidden under the sun¡± she reasoned, wrapping her hand around Rowan¡¯s waist, she really misses being with him, if only they can have more time for each other. ¡°I don¡¯t know, but no one will take that lightly,¡± Rowan phrased out, anybody in this situation will literally lose their mind if theye to find out about something like this. ¡°Sooner orter Adia wille to find out, it¡¯s better if Sebastian just tells her about it¡­¡± Laura said, signing deeply. ¡± I find it skeptical to believe that Adia will die soon, it breaks my heart and the fact she¡¯s been deceived makes everything worse..¡± ¡± Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯m sure Sebastian will find a solution for this, he won¡¯t let Adia die, ¡± Rowan said, assuring Laura. ¡± Has he found a solution yet?¡± ¡°No, but there¡¯s hope..¡± Rowan replied, they¡¯ve been trying to find a witch for God knows how long, and they¡¯ve not even caught sight of one, not even a clue. ¡°I just hope everything will fall out well..¡± Laura prayed. ¡± What about our vacation, have you informed Sebastian that you¡¯ll be living for some time?¡± Laura asked, after a heated argument between the two of them, Rowan finally decided to ept her terms, thanks to Adia ns. ¡°I nned on telling him today, but it looks like that¡¯s gonna have to wait¡­¡± ¡± Don¡¯t worry I will keep to my words¡­¡± he quickly added. ¡± Great, I can¡¯t wait to visit Britaris¡­¡± Laura squealed happily, after taking it into a long consideration, they¡¯ve decided to visit Britaris, Laura has never been there before and would be honored to visit where all these persky vampire males grew up. ¡°I have to get back to work, I¡¯ll pick you after work..¡± Rowan stated pecking her lips, releasing himself from her hold. ¡°Alright, see ya..

Ma took a sign of relief, that he didn¡¯t take it to heart, if not maybe he would have lost a finger, thankfully, all that is Sebastian¡¯s mind now is Adia. ¡± Thank God you¡¯re here Sebastian, Adia just started behaving strangely, I hope it¡¯s not what I think it is?¡± Ace voiced out, the moment he caught sight of Sebastianing. ¡°It is..¡± Sebastian replied to his disappointment. ¡°But who would have done that?¡± Ace asked smacking his lips, whoever that person is, he¡¯s going to make sure he cuts that person limb by limb. ¡°There¡¯s only one person who can do this, and you know who,¡± Sebastian stated, working close to Adia are away from Ace, who tried to remember the person who could have done this. ¡°Beau Gerald ¡± he mumbled as he finally remembered the culprit. ¡°Who¡¯s Beau Gerald?¡± Monica asked Ace, she overheard their conversation and whomever this Beau Gerald is, he is the one responsible for this. ¡°An old friend..¡± Ace responded curtly. ¡°What does he want with Adia?¡± Monica questioned, Adia was clearly scared of something only she could see, she¡¯s been crying don¡¯t kill me, don¡¯t touch me, throwing a tantrum everywhere. ¡°How am I supposed to know that?, Hmmm¡± ¡°Can¡¯t you guys stop this?¡± ¡°Nahh, Beau Is the only one who can reverse this, he started it¡± ¡°What did he do to her?¡± Monica asked, she has no idea what the so-called Beau even did to Adia. ¡°He¡¯s inside her head¡± Ace spat as Monica froze. ¡°Adia¡­.¡± Sebastian called as he got close to Adia. ¡°Don¡¯te close!!¡± Adia yelled like a maniac throwing herself on the floor as she cried. ¡°I begged them not to leave me, look they left¡± Adia said crying softly as she used her hands to hit the wet soil.C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org ¡°No one¡¯s leaving Adia¡­¡± Sebastian stated. ¡°Lies, you¡¯re all liars, mother, pleasee back..¡± Adia pleaded, staring at the ground as she knelt down, crawling around looking for God knows what. ¡°Adia..¡± Sebastian called, she¡¯s been brought back into the worst sceneries of her life, everything she fears the most, all the things she wished never happened to her and she wishes never to repeat itself. ¡°Mother, father, you promised to stay with me forever, what about Addison, how¡¯s she gonna feel about this, pleasee back¡± Adia cried at the top of her voice, her heart aches so much, the night she lost her parents, is literally the worst day of her life, they died right in front of her, she witnessed life leave them, now it feels as if she¡¯s reliving all that. ¡± No one¡¯s gonna leave you, there¡¯s nothing there Adia..¡± Sebastian said, holding her shoulders as he pulled her close to himself, regardless of her dirty state, she was all covered in mud and it was even raining, luckily she was wearing a sweater, so the chances of her catching a cold is thin, nevertheless the rain was just showering. ¡± Ouch, what a heart touching moment..¡± Arion voiced out, imitating a pity face as if he wanted to cry because of the scene before him. ¡± Shut up!!¡± Ace snapped as Monica took a look at the two brothers standing beside her. ¡°What¡¯s Beau up to this time around, when did he even leave Britaris?¡± Arion scoffed loudly, a vampire drama never ends, he thought loudly. ¡°How did you know he¡¯s not in Britaris?¡± Ace asked, ¡°I have my sources and Beau Is the only vampire on earth with that kind of Powers, so..¡± Arion reasoned shrugging his shoulders. ¡± What about your powers?¡± Monica asked out of nowhere gaining their attention. ¡± Hmm..¡± ¡± As far as I can remember, every twilight vampire has at least one person from their family that has a gift and I was told you both bear a gift from the Huntersville province..¡± ¡± True..¡± ¡± So what¡¯s your gift, ¡± ¡± Gift of sight, we can see the future, don¡¯t ask any questions further, because ites and goes, whenever it likes¡­¡± Ace stated with a smile on his face, he knew what she was bound to ask, if Adia is gonna make it out alive, they¡¯ve been asked this same question countless times, but got no answer, because it¡¯s not in their power, the visionse and go. ¡± Come on, let me take you out of here..¡± Sebastian whispered to her ears, it¡¯s usually hard to break a person out of their trance. ¡°No..¡± Adia snapped, pushing him with all her strength, but thankfully Sebastian was strong enough to withhold. ¡°Don¡¯t touch me.. don¡¯t do what you¡¯re nning to do please..¡± Adia begged, still struggling with Sebastian, as Sebastian¡¯s brows furrowed, she thinks he¡¯s trying to have his way with her, her mind is on what happened the night they met, that¡¯s another major fear of hers. 99 ¡°Calm down Adia, nothing is happening, get a grip of yourself¡± he tried pacifying her, hoping she¡¯ll calm down. ¡°Get off me, please don¡¯t do this, are you seriously gonna destroy an innocent girl¡¯s life, please just let me go..¡± Adia incessantly cried, and that night was filled with nothing but pain, she cried and pleaded but it all fell on deaf ears, it was filled with pain, everything she felt was pain.This belongs ?

It was as if time had stopped counting for all of them. ¡°Calm the fuck down, nothing is fucking happening to you..¡± he added, he didn¡¯t mean to scream or lose his patience at her but it worked as Adia finally calmed down. ¡°Seb¡­¡± Adia called with pain filled voice, as she ced her hands on both sides of his face, not caring if she was staining it with mud, ¡°You¡¯re here,¡± she uttered with a shaky voice, her hands still on his face. ¡°Please don¡¯t let me go..¡± she said amidst sobs, with tear-filled eyes. ¡°I¡¯m not letting you go..¡± he assured her, ¡°Promise me¡­¡± ¡± I promise you Adia, I¡¯ll never let you go..¡± he promised as Adia forced out a smile. ¡± I love you..¡± she confessed, crashing her lips on his as she kissed him, savoring his delicious lips. ¡± Adia, people are watching,¡± he said to her pulling away. ¡°I don¡¯t care..¡± she stated capturing his lips again. ¡°Neither do I, but we need to get you out of the rain, not to forget you are covered with mud, same with me, so we have to go inside,¡± he said to her picking her up from the floor as Mickelson rushed to them holding an umbre as he spoke as he covered them both with the umbre. ¡± Sir¡­¡± ¡°No need..¡± Sebastian said as he jumped upnding on his window, with Adia still in his arms. .. .. .. ¡°Hope you¡¯re feeling better Adia?¡± Ace asked sincerely immediately as Adia came downstairs, he¡¯s been so worried about her. ¡°I guess..¡± Adia responded with a smile alighting the stairs, she just freshened up and decided toe downstairs against Sebastian¡¯s wish as he insisted she had a good rest. ¡°So Seb, what are you going to do about her?¡± Arion questioned pointing at Adia. ¡°Yes Seb, you know this is never going to end until you find Beau,¡± Ace chimed in. ¡°Who¡¯s Beau?¡± Adia asked because he might be the solution to her problem, seeing that they needed to find him. ¡°Someone you¡¯ve already met¡± Arion responded as Adia¡¯s eyes squinted. ¡°I don¡¯t get you¡­¡±. ¡°Beau is a vampire Adia, a vampire who creates illusions on people¡¯s heads based on their biggest fears, and he can only do that to a person by meeting with that person, so you¡¯ve met him before, in fact, you¡¯ve spoken to him, probably shook hands with him, because that¡¯s the only way he could have gotten into your head, and nted, God knows what, there¡± Arion exined to her, she just has to remember where she met anyone like him, as far as he¡¯s concerned they¡¯ve recently met, because Beau recently left Britaris. ¡°I don¡¯t remember ever meeting up with someone like that..¡± Adia spoke out, trying to remember the name Beau. ¡± Yes you have Adia, there¡¯s no way he could havepelled you,pulsion doesn¡¯t work on you, so try and remember where you met with him, maybe we can track him with that, he¡¯s one tricky vampire..¡± Arion added, ¡± I¡­. I¡­ don¡¯t know but..¡± Adia stammered trying to get the name Beau. ¡± Dark skinned, extremely handsome, and smiles a lot, trust me, a smile never falls from his face, and it¡¯s the most annoying smile ever..¡± Arion described scornfully, and Adia could guess, he and the so-called Beau are not on good terms. ¡± Dark¡­. skinned.. smiles.. at the party!!¡± Adia eximed as she finally remembered where they met. ¡°At the party, he just approached me iming to be a friend, he had this annoying smile on his face, though he was wearing a mask and¡­.¡± ¡± You shook hands with him..¡± Arionpleted as Adia shot a re at him. ¡± How did you¡­?¡± ¡°Because that¡¯s the only way he must have gotten into your head, through direct skin contact..¡± Arion stated it seemed as if Adia had already be every vampire¡¯s target. ¡± He seemed nice¡­¡± Adia shrugged her shoulders, she had no idea he was a vampire, and he looked as if he wouldn¡¯t hurt a fly, the only w he had was his annoying smile, which never ceased to stop. ¡°That¡¯s where you¡¯re wrong..¡± Ace chimed in. ¡°No vampire is nice, we¡¯re all vile creatures..¡± he added, ¡°I had no idea he was one..¡± ¡°But what business do I have with him, for him to do something like this to me?¡± Adia asked no one in particr, Beau is the only one who has the answer to this. ¡± Because he was just pulling your legs..¡± Sebastian spoke for the first time as Adia shot a re at him. ¡± Pulling my legs¡¯ ¡® she repeated in sarcasm. ¡°Yes¡± came Sebastian¡¯s curt reply. ¡°Why, how is this pulling one¡¯s legs?¡± ¡°Beau will never hurt you,¡± Ace answered, smiling widely. ¡°And how did you know about that?¡± ¡°Why do you think Sebastian hasn¡¯t gone wild trying to find Beau, so he can undo whatever he did?¡± Ace asked, as realization dawned on Adia, Sebastian was strangely calm about all this, they all looked calm, he¡¯s supposed to be ransacking the city trying to find Beau, but he was not. ¡± That¡¯s because, Beau will knock on this door by himself, the idiot loves making unforgettable appearances, he¡¯s just as annoying as our lovely Sebastian over here..¡± Ace said pointing at Sebastian. ¡± And why is that so?¡± Adia asked, seeing no reason, why getting into her head is making an appearance to somebody. ¡°Because Beau is like Sebastian¡¯s old buddy back in Britaris, they were like close friends..¡± Ace informed, emphasizing on the word close. ¡°They basically did all sorts of evil together, they were Britaris worst nightmares, you get, they both killed people without no remorse..¡± ¡°Arion..¡± Sebastian growled in a dangerous tone. ¡°What it¡¯s not as if I¡¯m lying¡­Beau is harmless at least not to Adia, he¡¯s technically your best friend, this is just how he loves joking about, gosh I hate his smiles¡­¡± Arion rolled his eyes walking away. ¡± So you¡¯re saying my life is not in danger here?¡± Adia asked, surprised that Sebastian has a friend aside from Rowan, she thought Rowan was his only friend aside from his brothers, but whoever that Beau, he¡¯ll pay for doing this, she¡¯ll make him pay in her own way. ¡± Hopefully¡­¡± Ace said still unsure, maybe Beau has made a change of ns. ¡°That¡¯s enough, Adia¡­¡± Sebastian called walking to Adia as he held her hand. ¡°Enough of all the questions, go to your room, I¡¯ll take you there¡­¡± he volunteered, leading her up the stairs, as he took her to his room. ¡± Call me when you need anything..¡± he said to her, tucking her into bed, as he turned to leave, but was held back by Adia. ¡± Is there anything you need?¡± He asked, ¡°Yes,¡± she replied, ¡± What¡¯s that?¡± ¡± I need you to tell me everything I need to know about vampires, Britaris stuff, and whatever..¡± Adia demanded sitting up on the bed. ¡± Adia..¡± ¡± I insist¡± she interrupted, holding her gaze with his, as she locked her eyes in his beautiful gray eyes. 100 NOTE BEFORE YOU READ¡­..

It was a loud night, one where the sounds of crickets chirping could not be heard and the clouds smothered the moon and stars. The usual darkness was darker than the previous nights as the clouds rumbled and shook thend of Romanesque. Two cloaked figures walked through the streets of the town, a hood covering both their faces, their body getting drenched in the rain. They both continued to walk until they reached a small house. They sound of loud moans and skin pping against each other was heard, Lanterns andmps were lit around the small house which was surrounded by a thick forest. Regardless of the sounds they heard, one of the men pushed the door open as they both made their way into the house. ¡°Holy shit¡­.¡± A man cursed loudly pulling away from the woman he was enjoying mming as he covered his nakedness. ¡°What do you dimwits want by this time of the night, can¡¯t you see I¡¯m trying to have a good time here..¡± he grunted signaling the woman to leave, as she scurried away into the darkness. ¡± There¡¯s no time for that Hugo Alexandre¡± one of the men spoke, dropping his hood off. ¡°Why are you here Moreau?¡± Hugo asked, picking up a shirt as he put it on. ¡°You know why I¡¯m here, we need to leave, we have a mission to aplish..¡± Moreau informed, ¡± And that couldn¡¯t wait till morning?¡± Hugo questioned gritting his teeth, the fact Moreau barged into his house angered him. ¡°The night is cold for damn sake!!¡± ¡± We have no time Hugo, the ritual has to be done on a full moon and we have just five days before that, so get your asses up¡± ¡± Who¡¯s he?¡± Hugo asked, pointing at the second man, who still had his hood on. ¡± A long time friend,¡± Moreau responded, ¡°Name?¡± ¡°Regis Cahan¡± ¡°When are we leaving?¡± ¡°Tonight, get your wife and everything you¡¯ll need..¡± Moreau knocked the table as he picked up a pocket watch from there. ¡± Where are we meeting the others?¡± ¡± They¡¯re all waiting at the inn, we¡¯ll go there together, I¡¯ll be outside¡± Moreau stated walking out with Regis who still had his hood on. ¡°Delphine¡± Hugo called and the woman who he was mming earlier came out. ¡°Yes my Lord..¡±Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. ¡°Pack your things, we have a long journey ahead of us¡± he informed , leaving to go grab a few things he¡¯ll need. ¡°Where are we heading?¡± Delphine asked, ¡°No question woman¡± Hugo shot at her, picking up a bag made up of silk, picking his swords along with other stuff. .. .. .. Three horses pulled off in front of an inn built like a cottage, making sure their horses were in safe hands, Hugo, Moreau and Regis, all walked into the inn. Merging with the shadows, they continued to move until they heard whispersing from a room, ¡°They¡¯re in here..¡± Moreau informed them, pointing at the door. ¡°Your wife can wait in the other room with the other women,¡± Moreau added as Delphine squinted her eyes. They were other women? What is it that her husband is up to. ¡°Delphine, you heard him, I¡¯ll be back soon..¡± Hugo spoke as Moreau opened the door as they got in, while Delphine found her way to the other room. ¡°Here they are..¡± someone announced immediately the three men walked into the room which was lit bynterns, with four men present in it. ¡°What took you so long?¡± One of them asked, not even a smile on his face, he had this stern look that could scare the living hell out of anybody. ¡°The journey was a hectic one, because of the rain..¡± Moreau responded, pulling off his coat. ¡°Is he the man you were talking about?¡± He asked, pointing at Regis as Moreau nodded, taking his seat. ¡°So when do we move, we have just a few days before the full moon?¡± Hugo asked, still annoyed that Moreau disrupted his peace, that man never knows when to show up. ¡°Immediately ? lliot, and there¡¯s no backing out¡­¡± Moreau stated, he seemed like the leader of the group and spoke with vigor. ¡± Tell that to ? mile..¡± ? lliot scoffed loudly pointing at a man who just sat quietly at a corner, he had this petite figure unlike the other men present, who were all tall and bulky. ¡°I thought we¡¯ve gone past that, ? mile Gaston, there¡¯s no backing out, why don¡¯t we just leave him behind¡­¡± Another scary man spoke for the first time, nothing but annoyance was written on his face, he looked like someone who had no joy in him at all. ¡°Montenero is right, what¡¯s the meaning of all this, quit acting like a woman, women are weak¡± another chimed in. ¡± I agree with Eugene on this,¡± Moreau said, shrugging his shoulders. ¡± I don¡¯t just¡­¡± ? mile began, hesitating a bit. ¡°Oh shut up ? mile¡­¡± Elias Montenero snapped at him. ¡°What about the witch, and what¡¯s wrong with the man you brought Moreau, what a quiet one..¡± Eliasmented, referring to Regis who hasn¡¯t said any word since he arrived. ¡± I¡¯ve spoken with Serefina, she expects us soon, I have the diamond with me..¡± Moreau replied. ¡°And the other witches?¡± Elias inquired, things could get really messy if the other witches found out about this quest they were embarking on. ¡°I¡¯ve got them under control, they have no idea about this, at least for now..¡± Moreau replied, smacking his lips. ¡°And Estelle La Fey?¡± Elias raised his brow at Moreau whose jaw worked. ¡°She has no idea about it also, she was never gonna agree with this¡± ¡°Enough with all the questions, this is not a time for chit chats¡­? mile get your ass up and quit acting weak..¡± Eugene chimed in picking up his sword. 101 ¡°I¡¯m still not sure about this..¡± Emile Gaston stuttered unsure of the mission they were all about to embark on. ¡°Shut up!!¡± Moreau howerled rushing at Emile, pinning on the wall As hended a punch on his face. ¡°Tell me, do you like the way we¡¯re being belittled, all because we¡¯re mere humans, tell me!!¡± He yelled anger zing through his eyes, he hated weakness, and what Emile was portraying right now was nothing but weakness, which is not expected from a man like him. ¡°We humans have no say in the council all because the witches think we are weak, they act as if they own the world, and treat us helpless humans as trash, what we seek is real power, real power, Elise, wake up!!¡± He growled, pping Elise across the face for the second time. ¡°All the members of the council are witches, hiding their existence from us, do you know how I managed to find out about them?¡± He asked angrily as he began chuckling. ¡± That¡¯s because of Estelle La Fey, she told you her secret, how do you think she would feel if she¡­¡± ¡± She chose this herself¡± Elias chimed in. ¡± If she really loved Moreau here, she could have done the spell herself and saved us the stress of traveling one thousand miles away, she¡¯s being all goody, because she feels entitled to the council..¡± Elias spat angrily, the council governed all the affairs of the vigers, Moreau just came to find out about a very big secret. The existence of witches, another mind blowing secret, was that all the council members were all witches, including Estelle La Fey herself, and they never give them the humans chance to speak for themselves or anything. ¡± Correction please, Estelle didn¡¯t tell me about her secret, I managed to find out about, I found out that she¡¯s been lying to me all this while, so I had to track another witch who¡¯s against the council members, that¡¯s how I met Serefina, and she gave me this stupid mission, to find a stupid diamond, the Wartz diamond took me six months to find and none of you fucking embarked on the journey with me, except from Regis Cahan, a friend who I met during my mission..¡± Moreau exined, his demeanor turning very serious. They all have to imagine what he went through to get the diamond for the witch, who was supposed to perform a ritual for them to make them invisible just like the witches. ¡°It took me a whole fucking year before I could find Serefina, do you think that will be easy for a human like me, we¡¯re nobodies, going on a path to be somebodies, and you think you can blow that up by backing down, NEVER!!, I¡¯d rather kill you, than make you walk out of here alive¡± Moreau threatened, he was the most fearsome of all the men present here, the only man who dared face death itself. ¡°I only chose you all toe with me, so that we¡¯ll all have equal powers, strong enough to take down the witches, and each of you were required to take a female with you so you can reproduce, Emile I promise you, you will never ruin this for me..¡± Moreau promised, releasing his grip from Emile, as Emile wiped the blood stains from the corner of his lips. ¡°Estelle La Fey is the only woman in your life..¡± Elias reminded Moreau, they all know how much he loves the woman, who turned out to be a witch. ¡± I¡¯ll take Celeste with me¡± ¡°Her maid!!¡± Elias eximed as he beganughing. ¡°She volunteered herself and she¡¯s Human, she also helped me find Serefina¡± ¡± How do you know Serefina is gonna perform the spell, what if she refuses after you give her the diamond?¡± Hugo questioned, he doesn¡¯t even know who Serefina is, or where she belonged, or if she could even be trusted. ¡± We swore an oath, to keep our end of the deal, witches don¡¯t go back on their words¡± Moreau informed, he had all this carefullyid out, and is never gonna mess it up, all he hungered for is true power, nothing else.Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. He loves Estelle La Fey, no doubt, but that¡¯s not going to stop him from getting whatever he wants. ¡°What exactly are we seeking, all you say is power, power, what kind of power do we seek?¡± Elias asked, his British ent overpowering the room as he spoke, no doubt he¡¯s the talkative of them all. ¡± Immortality, strength, immense strength, we will be imprable, we will be the superiors of this world and will finally have a say in the council, not those dimwits¡± Moreau cursed at the witches, he was nothing but a clerk at the council¡¯s office, a man with no name, but wants to make a name for himself, most of the men here, were nothing but mere vigers, the only notable person there was, Elias Montenero, Eugene Yannick and Emile Gaston the weakling. The remaining four of them, Hunter Moreau, Elliot Gerald, Regis Cahan and Hugo Alexandre were just vigers, Regis didn¡¯t even have a home for himself, he was nothing less than a pauper. ¡°Gather all the women, we¡¯ll be leaving by midnight¡± Moreau announced as they all started packing, he was the leader of the group and they all respected that fact. .. .. .. ¡°Delphine this is Celeste,¡± Hugo introduced as both Delphine and Celeste shook hands. ¡°She¡¯ll help you with anything you need, I hope you both get along, I¡¯ll join the other..¡± Hugo said leaving the scene. ¡°The journey¡¯s gonna be a long one, hope you came prepared?¡± Celeste asked, making sure her horse was in check. ¡°Not that I know nothing about all this..¡± Delphine chuckled sheepishly as Celeste nodded meaningfully. ¡°I see the lord hasn¡¯t told you about this yet..¡± she stated, ¡°I guess..¡± ¡°Well our journey will be very rough and tiring,¡± Celeste informed, staring at Moreau who climbed onto his horse as she admired him. ¡°Do you love him?¡± Delphine asked, seeing Celeste¡¯s eyes were fixed on Moreau. ¡°Who wouldn¡¯t, I just wished he felt the same way, but sadly his heart belongs to another woman¡± Celeste signed sadly. ¡± Then why are you here?¡± ¡± Because I¡¯m a survivor, and I want to be here, I¡¯m fighting for what I want¡± Celeste replied, climbing her horse. ¡± You ride a horse!!!¡± Delphine eximed in delight. ¡± Like I said, I¡¯m a survivor¡± Celeste repeated helping Delphine climb the horse. ¡± I think I like you, we¡¯ll definitely make good friends..¡± Delphine expressed as Celeste saddled the horse forward. ¡± Eiee yahh!!¡± She screamed as the horse ran as they met up with the other. ¡± Put on your coat, the night will be very cold..¡± she advised. 102 ¡± Where are we heading, we¡¯ve been journeying for two days now?¡± Delphine asked while Celeste lit the fire, as they both sat around it, to warm themselves up. After embarking on a very long and tiring journey, they¡¯ve finallye to rest, it was past midnight and the other men had gone hunting for food. Only the women sat with each other around the fire they made. ¡°I see your husband didn¡¯t discuss any of this with you?¡± Celeste asked looking up at the stars. ¡°No, he only told me to pack up for this¡­¡± ¡± I see, you must love your husband a lot¡± Celeste reasoned, ¡± I do and I Know you also have an eye for the Lord, Moreau I mean¡± Delphine phrased out as Celeste chuckled, everyone here knew how much Moreau loves and cherished Estelle La Fey, she¡¯s the only woman whom he holds in his heart, but seems like he chose power over his love, for reasons best known to him, and also how Celeste was always seen around him, because she had special feelings for him, though he never baits an eye at her, the fact she was Estelle La Fey¡¯s maid left people thinking. ¡°I do, ¡± Celeste admitted. ¡°Where do you live?¡± Delphine questioned looking at Celeste in the face, she just liked her, Celeste has been her only friend through out this journey, she¡¯s the only one who talks to her and she was also a survivor and help her with the harsh conditions over here. ¡°Romanesque¡± she replied, ¡°I¡¯ve not seen you around the town before¡± ¡°You won¡¯t, I¡¯m a maid remember, I remain within my mistress¡¯s walls except when being sent on errand¡± Celeste exined, though Moreau heart will forever belong to Estelle La Fey, Estelle La Fey will forever be the best mistress ever, she¡¯s kind without any w and her beautiful smile never leaves her face, a smile enough to warm anybody¡¯s cold heart, just as it did to Moreau, leaving her care was a choice she made, because she decided to think about herself before anyone, but if she¡¯s ever given a chance to choose a mistress, Estelle La Fey will always be the one. ¡°Oh I see, how was life in your mistress house?¡± ¡°Great, Estelle was more like a sister than a mistress, I¡¯m sure you must have met her on a few asions?¡± ¡°Yes, I met her once, when I and Hugo visited the council, she was the only nice council member there¡± Delphine said as they both chuckled. ¡°So why¡¯d you decide to leave her then and embark on this?¡± ¡°Because I decided to think about myself for once and get something I really desire¡± Celeste answered. ¡°Moreau..¡± spoke Delphine giving Celeste a questioning gaze. ¡°Yes, ¡± it might sound stupid that she had an eye for the man who loved her mistress, but feelings we¡¯re not something you could just control, sometimes they take over your whole being. ¡°I see¡± Delphine said nodding meaningfully. ¡± What about you, your father is a vige head right?¡± Celeste asked, checking the fire that was about to burn off. ¡± Yes, that¡¯s how I met Hugo and then we married..¡±Delphine replied in smiles as she remembered the first time she met her husband. ¡± You don¡¯t have any children yet?¡± ¡± No, but we hope to make babies soon¡± ¡± Great for you them..¡± ¡± Coucou (hello)¡± Someone said behind them as they turned to see a woman standing behind them. ¡°He¡± Celeste waved. ¡°Mind if I join you?, I brought wine¡± she asked politely showing them a water bag. ¡± Sure, you have wine in there?¡± ¡± Yes, I took some from my lord¡¯s¡± she whispered gingerly while sitting beside them. ¡°I¡¯m Jeanne,¡± she introduced. ¡± Delphine and¡­¡± ¡± Celeste, I Know, no need to be shocked, everyone knows about Celeste here, I admire you a lot¡± ¡± Please do have some¡± Jeanne offered, giving them the water bag. ¡°Thank you¡± Celeste appreciated gulping down the wine. ¡°So Jeanne, which of the lords did youe with?¡± Delphine asked, collecting the water bag from Celeste, while she had her own share of the wine.Exclusive content ?

After many nights, they have finally reached their destination, nights of hardship, hunger, harsh weather, cold, they have finally arrived. ¡°This house is in the middle of nowhere¡± Eliasmented, the house looked old and tattered, it was made with dry leaves and looked as if it would copse anytime soon, they fact it was also surrounded by a thick forest, he wondered how a human will live here. ¡°That¡¯s why they are called witches ,¡± he mumbled to himself, climbing down his horse like the others waiting for the oue of their journey. 103 ¡°So where is she, we have been here for quite a long time now?¡± Elias asked, sucking his teeth. ¡± je suis ici ( I¡¯m right here)¡± a voice said from behind as a woman emerged, her appearance leaving everyone stunned. She was far from what they had expected her to be, her beauty was unmatched even though she wore tattered clothes. ¡°Bonne journee Serefina, ( good day Serefina)¡± Moreau said, stepping out as he walked up to her, picking up her hands as he nted a kiss on her knuckles. ¡± Avez-vous le diamant avec vous? ( Do you have the diamond with you?)¡± She asked, retracting her hand backwards. ¡°Oui ( yes)¡± Moreau replied, putting his hand inside his leather pouch as he reached for the diamond which he handed to Serefina. ¡°Bon, nous allonsmencer les rituels tout de suite, nous avons juste un peu de temps jusqu¡¯a minuit. (Good, we will begin the rituals immediately, we have just a little time until midnight.)¡± She said tucking the diamond away. ¡± Dites a vos amis de s¡¯agenouiller dans le cercle-bas, tout est prepare pour les rituels. (Tell your friends to kneel inside the circle over there, everything for the rituals has been prepared)¡± she informed, pointing at a big circle at the corner of the house, with salt lining it, a big fire lit in the middle. ¡°what did she say?¡± Elias asked, being from Britain, he had no idea about what Moreau and Serefina conversed with each other, unlike the others. ¡± Kneel inside the circle we will begin¡± Moreau announced as everyone scrambled away, they were fourteen in total. .. .. ..All content is ?

Only the sounds of crickets chirping and Serefina incantations were heard, the golden light of the fire lit, lighting everywhere up. ¡°i athanasia, i dynami, i dynami, i tachytita, tha einai dika sas¡± She chanted at the top of her voice. ¡°i athanasia, i dynami, i dynami, i tachytita, tha einai dika sas¡± ¡± i athanasia, i dynami, i dynami, i tachytita, tha einai dika sas¡± ¡± i athanasia, i dynami, i dynami, i tachytita, tha einai dika sas¡± she chanted screaming hard, as the ck of her eyes turned white, the fire lit at their middle increased as if fuel was added to hit.

Moreau could already feel his fangs aching him, an indescribable feeling fueling up within him. ¡± Look what we¡¯ve done..¡± Hugo said, alerted, pointing at Delphine who sat at the ground with a lifeless body in her hands, blood smeared all over her, her mouth also stained with blood, her eyes zing red. ¡°What is this Moreau, I can¡¯t take this, don¡¯t you see what is happening here?¡± Hugo asked again alerted as he looked at Moreau, whose eyes were changing colors from gray to red, Before Hugo could say anything else Moreau had already charged at the body Delphine was holding. .. .. .. ¡± We need to meet Serefina, she has to exin this¡± Emile said as they were all seated in a room, regarding the matters at hand. ¡± I can stand the sight of blood, I killed two people today, I fed on them till I was satisfied, what the hell is going on?¡± Eugene asked stomping around the room. ¡± That¡¯s the price we have to pay, don¡¯t you get it, we¡¯re Vampires now..¡± Elias stated standing up, he felt so ted, he couldn¡¯t be more happier than the state he is now. ¡± We depend on blood Moreau, human blood, we need Blood to survive, we kill to survive.. you never informed us of any of this¡± Elliot said, he killed a person this morning. ¡± Don¡¯t you dare take it all on Moreau, you all wanted power and we got it, I couldn¡¯t be more happier than this.¡± Elias began, ¡± I have immense strength, I see at night, I can fly, I heal fast, I have great vision and hearing, we are fast, and the only price we have to pay is to feed on blood, I don¡¯t see anything wrong with that.¡± Elias pointed out, he has long epted this new side of him. ¡± The numbers of deaths are increasing everyday, soon, they council members will get to know about this¡± Emile Gaston said, yes it gave them power, but the price is something else. ¡± That is why we don¡¯t need to kill our prey, just a little sip¡± Moreau suggested, ¡± Tell that to the women, they¡¯re the worst, they have no self control at all, ¡± Eugene said, ¡± We have to do something about this, before people starts talking, that monsters live among them, we are no less than monsters now¡± Hugo voiced out, ¡± No one speaks anymore,¡± Moreau yelled, bringing everyone to silence. ¡± You wanted power, we have gotten power, so learn to live with it, we are now Vampires, so act like one, ¡± Moreau stated walking away, all that¡¯s in his head now is blood, as he felt his fangs aching, he will just learn how to live with this now and control his urge, but now he needs to feed. ¡°Is that all he has to say?¡± Eugene scoffed pointing at the door which Moreau left through. ¡°I have something to tend to also, aiye Vampires¡± Elias waved leaving as well. 104 The five members of the council were all seen gathered in one ce, all of their faces wearing a worried look. ¡°What do you all say about this issue?¡± A man with golden hair, that stopped at his waist asked. ¡°What do we say, the death rates of the vigers have been increasing every day for the past three months.¡± A bulky man stated. ¡°No, the fact that these vile acts have been done by humans?¡± Don¡¯t you all see, we have bloodsuckers among us, they are Humans like us, the walk about looking for prey¡± he grunted angrily, he lost his wife to those monsters. ¡± The Vampires are deadly creatures,¡± another said, ¡± We have to do something about this, many will keep dying..¡± ¡± That¡¯s not the problem now Henri,¡± a woman spoke out, referring to the golden-haired man. ¡± The problem now is how they came to exist, I¡¯ve nevere across the so-called Vampires all my life, until now¡± she added, the death rates of the vigers kept increasing, at first they all thought it was done by a wild animal, but when the matter kept on persisting, the came to know about the Vampires. Monsters in human form, with great strength, speed, and immortals, the matter was so strange, and it was more strange that some of the Vampires were men they used to know. ¡°Have youe across one before Celine?¡± Henri Asked. ¡± No, but I did hear that they are all scary creatures, men and women inclusive¡­¡± ¡± One of them is Celeste, Celeste used to be Estelle La Fey¡¯s maid,¡± Henri said as everyone faced a state of shock. ¡± What do you mean?¡± ¡± One of my men who excused death, imed he saw Celeste, I told Pierre about it¡± Henri replied as everyone¡¯s jaws worked. ¡± Is that true Estelle?¡± Celine questioned, facing a red-haired woman who sat at the corner, she hadn¡¯t spoken a word since they all arrived here, her beauty bloomed, a beauty capable of capturing the eyes of all men, she was really a beauty to behold. ¡± I have not heard from Celeste for quite a while now..¡± was all she said, ¡± What did we do?

The fire crackled beneath therge utensil with the burning charcoal and the logs of wood which were added just a few minutes ago. The woman in the kitchen with a baby bump, picked up a woodendle to mix up the food she was making. Bending towards the pot, she smelled the aromaing from it and smiled. Just as she finished setting the table, she heard the clucking sounds of horsesing to a halt just outside the house, going towards her window she looked outside the curtain to see rather an unfamiliar figure, she was certain it was the man from the way his built was, but was unable to identify who the person was, as he was covered with a ck coat. She watched the man walk to her door as she heard a knock, wiping her hands on the front of her apron, she opened the door to see who the person was. ¡°Hello how can I..¡± she stopped talking midway the moment she saw the person, he¡¯s thest person she ever expected to see, not anytime soon. ¡°Hello¡± the person smiled, but she still stood in shock and disbelief. ¡°Moreau..¡± she stammered, ¡°I thought you were..¡± ¡°Dead¡± hepleted smirking at her. ¡°Me too, I didn¡¯t expect you to still be alive and this¡­¡± he drawled out, his eyes traveling to her baby bump. ¡± You¡¯re also with a child, interesting¡± he added, as she looked at him, he looks so different from thest time they met, now he looked scary his eyes held danger, mischief and nothing else. ¡± It¡¯s been 200 years..¡± she whispered to him. ¡± I know, I¡¯m a vampire remember, I¡¯m shocked at how you¡¯re still alive, all the council members are all dead, except you and Pierre of course, and I see you guys are already making babies..¡± he said as a hint of jealousy shed through his eyes. ¡± What do you want?¡± She asked, he¡¯s not meant to be seen around her. ¡± Will you not do the pleasure of inviting me In, I¡¯m an old friend after all¡± Moreau asked politely, as she hesitated a bit. ¡± Come in¡­¡± she invited, locking the door immediately he came in. ¡°Tea¡± she offered, ¡°Sure¡± ¡± So why are you here?¡± She asked immediately , they both settled down. ¡°How have you been?¡± He asked, ignoring her question. ¡°Good and you?¡± ¡± Good not good¡± he replied, ¡± You¡¯ve not changed at all, Estelle La Fey¡± he confessed as her green eyes met his Gray ones, she still looked beautiful as before. ¡°How¡¯s Celeste and the other Vampires?¡± She questioned ignoring his statement. ¡°Good not good, as I mentioned earlier¡± ¡°And what is not good and good..¡± ¡°You need to uplift the curse you witches ced on us¡± he began, two hundred years ago, the witches connived and ced a curse on them, restricting the way they lived, in other words making them somewhat useless. ¡°If that¡¯s why you¡¯re here I¡¯m sorry, I will have to say no¡± he said with a note of finality. ¡°We vampires have been staying away from Romanesque¡± he reminded Estelle La Fey.C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org ¡± But you still feed on blood..¡± ¡± Do you know how hard you witches made it for us?¡±he asked her , he came to realize there were more to being Vampires than he thought, they could recreate other Vampires, by feeding their blood to the human, then they kill the person that has Vampire blood in their system, the persones back to life and undergoes transition, only the strong survives a vampire transition. But a few changes have been noted between them and the turned Vampires, they were far more stronger than the turned Vampires, the turned Vampires could die, while they regenerated, they didn¡¯t die, not only that they had the power topel someone to do their bid. During the years they have all seeded in building an army of Vampires, who are nothing but loyal to their makers. ¡°You left us with no Choice, you guys were killing people, feeding on blood..¡± Estelle phased out, it took them lots of power to take down the Vampires years ago. ¡°Estelle I came to you because you¡¯re the only one who can undo the spell..¡± he could have ran to Serefina for help but Serefina was killed hundred years ago by the witches. ¡°No Moreau..¡± he bluntly refused. ¡°You have to help us, you council members turned us night creatures¡± she stated, the run has be their worst enemy, that¡¯s the course the witches ced on them, sunlight was fatal to them, Vampires only came out at night to hunt, and then they return home before the sunrise, and still indoors till the evening again. ¡°That¡¯s what you are, night creatures, Blood suckers..¡± she spat at Moreau, it hurts her till date that Moreau tricked her along with Celeste and went ahead with the quest of being a vampire. ¡°Estelle La Fey you have to undo the spell¡± he begged, he can¡¯t even remember thest time he felt daylight, all their lives had been hiding and creating Vampire armies. ¡°Where are the others?¡± She asked, she was worried for Moreau and Celeste. ¡°We found a vastnd at the east and settled there, only Vampires resides there¡± he informed, after wandering about, th finally came to a stop at a ce, where the all began building shelters, the ce is usually very quiet during the day, as all vampires are indoors because they are hiding from the sun, they are mostly seen at night when they go hunt for food, and any unfortunate human who is seen around bes their meal. ¡°I see, you guys are doing quite fine then..¡± ¡°No Estelle I need your help¡± Moreau begged again, staring at her beautiful face he will forever love her, his heart will forever yearn for her, but they can never be together again, because it¡¯s obvious she has moved on, she¡¯s with child. ¡°And why should I help you?¡± She asked meaningfully ¡°You Blood suckers have brought us nothing but pain and death, you¡¯re a curse never meant to exist..¡± she stated, feeling bad and deceived that he lied to her and did something as gruesome as this behind her back. ¡± Then let¡¯s make a deal Estelle..¡± he proposed as Estelle La Fey watched him with her curious green eyes. ¡± If you I agree to help us lift this curse, I promise to keep the Vampires away from here, we will go far away and mind our own business, please help¡± he voiced out, as Estelle La Fey held a long gaze with him, as she pondered hard on the issue. ¡± It¡¯s a deal, I¡¯ll help lift your curse, but you¡¯ll have to keep the end of your bargain.¡± She epted as Moreau said a silent prayer muttering a thank you. Estelle La Fey is really the best woman he will ever meet. 106 ¡°You are back¡± Celeste eximed, immediately she saw Moreau leap In, he came in earlier than expected. ¡°How was your trip?¡± She asked they all hoped to hear good news. ¡°Productive, Estelle La Fey agreed to perform the sacrifice, soon we will be able to go out in broad daylight¡± he informed, the news might be good news to others, but not to him, it hit him real hard when he saw Estelle La Fey¡¯s Condition, she moved on so quickly, now she¡¯s even with a child, carrying the child of one of the men he hates most in life, Pierre, one of the members of the council, the main reason he embarked on the journey, to find power. When he learned about the existence of witches, he felt inferior to them and wanted to be able to stand up to Estelle La Fey and im her, now he has lost he, Lost everything, even his freedom, he can¡¯t evene out during the day, or the sun will fry him like potatoes. ¡°Then why do you look this way, this is meant to be great news right?¡± Celeste questioned, wondering what must be eating Moreau up. ¡°She has finally moved on, Celeste,¡± he said with pain-filled voice. ¡°Who has moved on?¡± ¡°Estelle, she¡¯s with child¡± ¡± Oh..¡± Celeste muttered, that¡¯s the reason he didn¡¯t seem overjoyed that they were finally gonna be free, all he cares about is Estelle La Fey after all. ¡°What a catastrophe¡± he scoffedughing hysterically, he did all this for Estelle, but now, she thinks of him as nothing but a monster. ¡°I¡¯ll leave you then¡­¡± Celeste said making her way to the door. ¡°Celeste¡­.¡¯ Moreau¡¯s deep husky voice called out, as Celeste stooped in her tracks facing him, ¡± Is there anything you need?¡± She asked, ¡± Yes,e here¡± he beckoned from the bed he was sitting on. ¡± What can I help you with?¡± Celeste asked, stopping in front of him, eager to help him with anything, as long as she gains his favor, with time Moreau maye to notice her and her feelings for him. ¡± Come here¡­¡± he ordered in a deep dry emotionless voice, as he gripped her waist, while he stood up, his height towering above her. ¡°My Lord¡­¡± Celeste stuttered, as Moreau unconsciously moved his lips to her neck, sucking on it softly, his hands already undressing her. ¡°What are you¡­.?¡± Celeste stammered as his peering gray, lustful eyes met hers. ¡°I know you want this, should I go on, or we can just stop here..¡± he uttered with a note of finality in his voice, ¡°I want this, it¡¯s just that I have never done this before..¡± she whispered, having lived her whole life as Estelle La Fey¡¯s maid, men and love were never her thing. Estelle La Fey bought her when she was just five from her parents, and since then she¡¯s been living with Estelle, all the fifteen years of her life, Moreau is the first man who caught her eye. He usually came to Estelle¡¯s cottage, bearing gifts as he tried to woe her, though Estelle was a little adamant at first, but they both began to get along and had something between them, that¡¯s when Moreau came to know about the existence of witches, he wanted to be able to stand up to Estelle, she was a very beautiful woman, a very strong witch, and a member of the council, because of that Moreau felt intimate, he was just a viger who fell in love with an extraordinary woman like Estelle La Fey. Celeste knew what she did was wrong, having eyes for her mistress¡¯s man, and Estelle La Fey has been nothing but good to her, Estelle treated her equally like a sister, but her love for Moreau was just too strong, who wouldn¡¯t love a man like him, strong, resourceful, adventurous, he always fights for what he wants, and he gets it. That¡¯s why she chose to be with Moreau and left Estelle La Fey¡¯s care. ¡°You¡¯re a vampire, you¡¯ll heal¡± he whispered to her ears, and the next second, Celeste¡¯s back had already hit the bed. ..Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. .. .. Celeste sat on top of the bed, with the sheets around her chest as she watched Moreau leaving the cottage. That¡¯s how it happens, loveless sex, and then boom. All Moreau does is have sex with her and the next minute he is gone, she is nothing but a sex ve to him, upon all the affection she shows him, he treats her like trash, they¡¯ve never even kissed before, he only ms into her hard, cause Moreau loves hardcore sex, thankfully she¡¯s a vampire, she heals on time, after the tedious sessions of never-ending sex. Celeste always, thought that after they both had sex once, he¡¯d be bound to her, but she thought wrong, he grew even more distant, it¡¯s been five years now, and Estelle La Fey acted ording to her promise, and broke the spell cast on then, now Vampires could live like freeborn, they Walk freely in the sun now, and their numbers are increasing every day. Vampires now live very far away from the humans, only a few know of their existence, they¡¯ve been trying so hard to keep the peace between the three races, the witches, the Vampires, and the humans, thankfully Estelle is an understanding witch, and surprisingly a friend of theirs, something she never expected, Estelle had this great dislike for vampires, and referred to them as Bloodsuckers, as an abomination, creatures that were never meant to exist in the first ce. Over these years, they¡¯ve all changed a lot, they look more fiercer, cruel, vile, it¡¯s as if their emotions were shut off the moment they were turned, Delphine who was once a weakling can kill a person now, without baiting an eye. They¡¯re more vicious than ever, there¡¯s no humanity in them, they kill humans like chicken, and it doesn¡¯t affect them one bit, they drool at the sight of blood, and the taste of blood makes them happy, that¡¯s what they are, Vampires. 107 YEAR I300 AD. The golden moon emitted a soft glow as the clouds passed by, a few of them trying to hide the Moon, but only to be blown away by the wind. It was like any other night for the Vampires who lived in between Britaris, from the west empire, to the east, south and north, Surrounded by a big river, and hills, making anyone believe living things actually reside there. Each empire had a lord governing them, as Britaris has been divided into seven provinces, but nheless, they all lived in peace and quiet.Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. The Huntersville province for Hunter Moreau, Cahan¡¯s province for Regis Cahan, These two provinces resided at the west, While at the east side, the Nero¡¯s province for Evans Montenero and Erald province for Elliot Gerald resided also. Then Gaston province for Emile Gaston, and Yannick province for Eugene Yannick,id at the south. Xandre province for Hugo Alexandre in the north. Britaris had long grown into a very big city solely for Vampires, passersby usually ended up bing their next meal. It was decided that Britaris be divided to maintain peace and harmony. Each province had their own viges and towns as Britaris kept growing, and the lords of each province kept turning more humans into Vampires, to increase their capital. Lamps andnterns were lit around the small houses, while the forest that surrounded them had turned dark after dusk. In one of the houses, the joy there was exceptional, as one of the wives of the lord was putting to birth. ¡°It¡¯s a boy, it¡¯s a boy¡± shouts of joy filled the air, as everyone ran around rejoicing, ¡°It¡¯s a boy!!¡± More screams were heard, the atmosphere reeked of joy, no one would be more happier than Moreau as he held his baby boy in his arms. After so many years, a smile has finally crossed his face, he is so overjoyed now, as the second Vampire to have a son, Hugo Alexandre being the first. It has been proven that it¡¯s very hard for a vampire to have a child, do he feels like a man, now that he¡¯s finally had one. ¡°Congrattions Celeste, I am so happy for you,¡± Delphine said, hugging Celeste. ¡°Finally Owen will have a ymate¡± she said referring to her child who she had five years ago, ¡°This is good news Moreau, in fact today is a day meant for good news¡± Regis Cahan spoke out, joy evident on his face, actually the man was not mute, talking was never his thing, it was more of action, ¡°This is to officially announce that Noemie Is with child¡± he announced as another round of joy filled the air, finally the Vampires are reproducing, that¡¯s hope that they can reproduce. ¡°So Celeste, what are you naming your child?¡± Jeanne questioned as she pointed at the baby wrapped in swaddling clothes, ¡°I¡¯ll call him Makas, but we¡¯ll decide whatever his father names him¡± Celeste knew fully within her that Makas would not be the name Moreau will want for their son, but she has decided to name him that, Makas meaning Hope, and this child is her hope. ¡°So Lord Moreau, what are you naming the child?¡± Jeanne questioned Moreau, ¡°Sebastian, His name is Sebastian Hunters Moreau, my first son¡± Moreau announced in a very loud voice as cheers filled the air. ¡°For he shall be great and venerable, he willmand Respect because he is my son,¡± he added. People began shouting in joy as they all feasted, no one slept that night, as they all rejoiced at the birth of another Twilight vampire. .. .. .. YEAR 1315 AD ¡°Move over¡­¡± Delphine screamed, as shended on the floor, bloodied and out of breath. ¡°Where¡¯s Owen?¡± She asked breathing loudly, she looked hurt, as there were injuries all over her body, which was unusual. Vampires do heal fast, but she was not healing. ¡°He went hunting with Sebastian and Rowan, they¡¯ll be back before twilight, what happened to you?¡± Celeste asked, walking close to you. ¡°And where¡¯s Hugo?¡± She added, they both left earlier today, to have some quality time for themselves, as they both imed it¡¯s been long, but now it doesn¡¯t seem like they had a good time, Delphine looks hurt, and is not healing, while Moreau is nowhere with her. ¡°Get her blood¡± Celeste ordered, Delphine was not healing and she looked pale, right now a certain amount of Vampires had already gathered around her, ¡°Here have some..¡± Celeste offered collecting the cup from the maid, cing it on Delphine¡¯s lips, as she drank it all in one go. Slowly, her wounds started healing up, but it was not fast like the way she usually did. ¡°Now speak up woman, where¡¯s Hugo?¡± Elias asked, it was apparent that something had gone wrong. ¡°He¡¯s dead¡± she broke out with a pain filled voice, Delphine never expected to say this one day or so soon. ¡°What do you mean dead?¡± Eliasughed it off, they all know you can¡¯t kill a twilight vampire, so what rubbish is Delphine sprouting. ¡°The witches, they killed him, that have a weapon against us..¡± she cried remembering the death of her husband, she has not shed tears for years now, but today she can¡¯t control it, she can¡¯t believe Hugo is dead. ¡°What do you mean?¡± ¡°We were having a stroll at Romanesque, to have a view of the town we first lived, I swear it was a peaceful tour, we never drank from any human, we both went in disguise, then all of a sudden, it felt as if a spell was casted on both of us, making us immobile, but the spell would onlyst for five minutes, so before the spell bes, inefficient, they made us drink something, ginger water, and that totally made us weak and useless¡± she exined tears dropping from her eyes. ¡°It burned as it went down my throat, and we couldn¡¯t do anything as they dragged is away, to meet Pierre, our enemy, he said he¡¯sing for us Vampires, that we¡¯re are not meant to exist and he would make sure to wipe any trace of us¡± she paused, ¡± That¡¯s when I realized, you can never cheat nature, we are not immortals after, there¡¯s a way us twilight vampires can die, I discovered, Pierre had been capturing Vampires over the years, finding ways to kill then and to find their weaknesses, that¡¯s when he discovered ginger water..¡± ¡°A weapon nature brought, so we can not live forever¡± Elias chimed in, ¡± Yes and that¡¯s ginger water, having tried that on different Vampires, it killed them, so he decided to try it on a Twilight vampire..¡± ¡± That¡¯s why he captured you and Hugo¡± Celeste reasoned, ¡± Yes, but the ginger water didn¡¯t kill us, it only weakened us, so he devised another n, they ughtered him like a chicken¡­¡± she cried her voice breaking down mid way, she never wants to remember the way her husband was murdered, ¡± Because we regenerate, he never gave Hugo the chance to regenerate, as he kept¡­..¡± her voice broke away, as Celeste ced her hands on her shoulders consoling her. ¡± He kept cutting him to pieces, as he burned his body parts, until nothing was left of him, and the fact they¡¯ve already rendered him weak, slowed his healing..¡± Delphine concluded as all the Vampires just stood speechlessly, they just lost someone to the witches, and the Vampires are not at fault this time, the witches started it. ¡± He¡¯sing, Pierre is our greatest enemy now¡± Delphine warned. ¡± So what do we do, we can¡¯t lose another?¡± ¡± War¡­¡± Delphine said in a menacing tone, her ck irises turning scarlet red. ¡± They want war, we give them war, I¡¯ll destroy the witches one after the other, until now one¡¯s left¡± she swore. 108 All the lords of Britaris were seen seated, along with thedies, no one wore a smile on their faces, they just lost a fellow lord, the once peacefulnd and turned into a sorrowful one. ¡°I say we wedge against them, we are going to make sure no witch makes it out alive¡± Delphine said in a stern voice, and she¡¯ll be leading the war. ¡°But don¡¯t you..¡±All content is ? N0velDrama.Org. ¡°No more objections, Moreau¡­or are you doing this because of the woman¡± Delphine chimed in referring to Estelle La Fey, she¡¯s totally different from the weak and delicate Delphine they used to know. ¡± It¡¯s not that..¡± ¡± I hope so, so if you don¡¯t feel like joining me in this war, I suggest you step back, xandre province is going to take care of it all¡± Delphine stated, she will not rest until there¡¯s no living witch on earth, they are all going to pay with their lives for Killing her husband. ¡± We are all with you, Hugo was not just a lord but a friend, and he must get the justice he deserves, so we are all with you.. what do you say Moreau?¡± Elliot asked, pointing at Moreau. ¡± I¡¯m in..¡± he said in a low voice, ¡± Great, we¡¯ll move tonight, ¡± Delphine announced. They are going to raid Romanesque unannounced. .. .. .. The light of the moon shone in the town of Romanesque, it was like every other night, everyone had retired to their beds. Lamps were lit around, in one of the houses, two girls, one at the age of sixteen, the other eleven, were seen petting their new found toy, which they received from their mother as a gift. ¡°Esmee, Elise, ¡± their mother called with panic in her voice. They both got up from where they sat, the one of eleven, holding the toy In her hands walking to meet their mother who was pregnant, seemingly eight months gone. ¡°Honey¡± Estelle La Fey said, bending down to meet the bigger one. ¡°Esmee,e on¡± she dragged the younger one, beckoning for the elder daughter toe along with her, ¡°Mama what¡¯s going on?¡± The else daughter asked, ¡°This is not the time for questions Esmee¡± she said, leading them both to a small room, which contained potions, and spell books, locking the door safely behind them. ¡°What¡¯s happening mama..¡± she asked, looking at her mother with her questioning brown eyes. ¡°Look at me Esmee¡± she cupped her face, gaining her attention. ¡°Esmee, Elise, my sweethearts,¡± she whispered with a shaky voice. ¡± Remember your mama and papa will always love you, Esmee no matter what happens, make sure you protect your sisters with all your life¡± she said with tear filled eyes, it¡¯s guts her so much that she¡¯s not going to see her lovely Angels grow. ¡°I¡¯ll always love you¡± she added as a pool of tears gathered on her eyes, as she nted a kiss on each of their foreheads. ¡°Come here¡± she held their both hands cing them in a circle, as she used salt to draw the circle, ¡°Don¡¯t move..¡± she warned them, She rushed to the shelf, collecting a leather bag, as she kept lots of books in it, literally all the books present there, then she collected another bag, cing her potions contained in ss Vials into it. ¡°Here have it..¡± she handed both bags to Esmee. ¡°What¡¯s going on Mama¡± Esmee cried, ¡°From now on, you¡¯ll be the responsibilities of your sisters, death ising my dear, and I can¡¯t let it take you, the race of the witches can¡¯t end now..¡± she said with a trembling voice. ¡°I¡¯m locking your souls safely my dear, along with your sister who is growing in my womb, five hundred years from now, they spell I used will no longer be effective, and then you¡¯ll be brought back to life, promise me, you¡¯ll take care of your siblings, here¡± she pulled a ne around her neck, cing it on Esmee palms, ¡± Give this to your baby sister, whenever you¡¯re pulled back into life, and tell her mama loved her¡± she choked on her tears, this is the only thing that can be done, ¡± What about you mama?¡± Esmee cried, ¡± Mama, can¡¯te with you, but I¡¯ll always be with you, make sure you be a very powerful witch, and teach your sisters magic too, these bags contains my spell books and grimoire, along with other useful potions, you¡¯ll need in the future, remember to be strong and I¡¯ll always love you¡± she said throwing a kiss at them. ¡± Give me you hand¡± she took each of their hands, making a small cut each, as drops of blood fell on the blood, Estelle La Fey doing the same thing to herself, ¡± Esmee, remember, mama loves you, so love your sisters as your own¡± she added smiling reassuringly at Esmee, as she began chanting, ¡°Pnevma ton progonon mou, akouse me, epano mou, kathodigise ta paidia mou¡± ¡°Pnevma ton progonon mou, akouse me, epano mou, kathodigise ta paidia mou¡± ¡°Pnevma ton progonon mou, akouse me, epano mou, kathodigise ta paidia mou¡± she cried at the top of her voice, as blood flowed from her nose. ¡°Pnevma ton progonon mou, akouse me, epano mou, kathodigise ta paidia mon¡± she shouted, ¡± Mama no, please stop this¡± Esmee cried along with her sister, their mother was dying, the spell she¡¯s using is too strong. The lights in the room started flickering as if affected by the power that was emitting from the witch. ¡± Mama!!!!¡± Elise yelled as they were suddenly overshadowed by a bright light, and the next second they had disappeared into thin air. ¡± Pnevma ton progonon mou, akouse me, epano mou, kathodigise ta paidia mou¡± Estelle La Fey breathed out, falling weakly on the ground. Smiling weakly, with blood flowing from both her nostrils, Estelle La Fey felt satisfied that the spell was sessful, though it was at the cost of something, she rubbed her already defamed stomach softly as she mumbled, ¡°I¡¯ll always love you, my children¡±it hurts to know she¡¯ll not live to see the beautiful women her daughters will grow into. From where Estelleid weakly, she looked at her reflection in the mirror staring at her old self now, her hair wasn¡¯t red anymore, it was now mixed with white and red, this is one of the price she has to pay for performing a Forbidden and powerful spell. .. .. .. ¡°Bring any witch you find to the burning pyre¡± shouted one if the vampires, ¡± Kill and burn any witch you find¡± the whole of Romanesque was in chaos, the Vampires Killing every with that came their way, taking the humans as ves, blood sprawled all over the town, the screams of burning witches heard, At another side of Romanesque, a cloaked man walked along the cold streets, which was covered with blood, silence everywhere, the only sound heard were sounds of crickets, and the witches who screamed for help as they burned, he walked into a house, hoping to find someone there. ¡°Estelle..¡± he called, alerted on seeing the body of Estelle on the floor. ¡°Moreau, I knew you woulde for me..¡± she muttered weakly, forcing a smile, herst wish had finally been fulfilled. ¡°What happened to you?¡± Moreau asked, alerted , carrying her in his arms. ¡°My time hase Moreau,¡± she said softly, ¡°Nonsense¡± he growled loudly, ¡± no, you can¡¯t die, I will never allow that..¡± Moreau said shakily, ¡°It¡¯ll have to happen sooner orter, the Vampires will never let me live¡± ¡°But I will, there must be a way out, I can¡¯t let you die Estelle¡± he uttered with a pain filled voice, as he stared deep at her beautiful green eyes, which life was already departing from. ¡°I have to, but there¡¯s something you can do for me Moreau¡± ¡°Anything, I¡¯ll do anything, just live for me¡± he begged, wiping the blood off her nose. ¡°My children, keep them safe, the witches can¡¯t go extinct..¡± she pleaded, ¡°Where are they?¡± Moreau asked, looking around the house. ¡°Somewhere safe, but let no one know about this, when the timees, allow then live a peaceful life¡± she requested, ¡°Estelle..¡± Moreau called softly, ¡°Promise me Moreau¡± ¡°Estelle¡± ¡°Just promise me that¡± ¡°I promise, but please live¡± though he knew she would never be his again, he could never watch her die, or bear the thought of it. ¡°Then I can go freely, live well, Moreau¡± she stuttered weakly, raising her hand slowly, to ce it on his cheek. ¡± I love you Estelle, I always will,¡± Moreau confessed, watching her take herst breath. He pains him so much to see her die, never in his wildest dreams did he expect this, his whole world came crumbling all in one night. ¡± I love ¡­¡±Her voice trailed off, as her hand fell lifelessly from Moreau¡¯s face, as he gave out a shrill cry. ¡± No, this can¡¯t be, Estelle, why..¡± he painstakingly uttered, feeling his heart chatter into a million pieces. ¡°My Lord..¡± Celeste called softly with tears in her eyes, this is a sad moment for both her and Moreau, she just lost a mother figure, Moreau a lover. ¡°You have to let go now, the other Vampires are on their way¡± she informed, knowing that if they find Estelle¡¯s body, she¡¯ll be burnt. ¡°Take her body to safety, and make sure you arrive at Britaris¡± he ordered Celeste, who quickly went for Estelle¡¯s body. ¡°I¡¯ll take care of the others, make sure no one sees you, you go through the back¡± he added, as Celeste carried Estelle up in her arms, leaping away with her body, as fast as she could, before being spotted by any one. ¡°No witches out alive today..¡± Moreau swore his eyes zing red, if the witches didn¡¯t kill a vampire in the first ce there would have been no need for a bloodshed and Estelle wouldn¡¯t have to die, but now Estelle is dead, no witch lives. 109 HELLO LOVELIES¡­. Hope you¡¯ve been enjoying TALE OF VAMPIRES so far. But I guess our journey will have to end here(, I know it was rushed a little, but that part of the story was just to brief about how Vampires were created, and how the witches were annihted, so wee back to Adia and Sebastian¡¯s story.Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. Love¡­. Blu~vee. Do check or add other books of the author REVENGE ON THE MAFIA LORD. .. .. .. BACK TO THE PRESENT¡­. Silence reigned in Sebastian¡¯s room, not even a single sound was heard, the atmosphere, perfect for couples who wanted some alone time for themselves. Adia remained in Sebastian ¡®s arms, as he just finished telling her the story about vampires. It all sounded like a fan fiction to her, she was still finding it hard to believe that something like that actually happened in the past, if not that she¡¯s already met a vampire, she wouldn¡¯t have believed any of that, and thought the whole story was made up. ¡°So witches used to exist..¡± she asked in denial, not only are there Vampires, bit witches also. ¡°Yes¡± Sebastian replied, ¡°Wow, I can¡¯t believe it, ¡± she eximed not wanting to be in disbelief, ¡°You have to believe it Adia¡± he told her, patting her back softly, they were both seated in such a way that one would think they were madly in love, each holding each other so tight. ¡°I know right..¡± ¡°The story is so touching, I literally feel like crying, I feel very bad for Estelle..¡± she pouted, her death pained her the most. ¡± You don¡¯t have to¡± he stated, ¡± ¡°Why, the Vampires really did her dirty¡± she said, ¡°The Vampires didn¡¯t kill her¡± he reminded, ¡°I Know¡± ¡°That¡¯s the price she had to pay for performing a Forbidden spell, her life was the price¡± Sebastian stated. ¡°I Know, but she died to save her children¡± Adia corrected, she really feels bad for Estelle, who sounded to be a nice woman. ¡°Children you don¡¯t even know if they made it¡± Sebastian scoffed, ¡°What do you mean?¡± Adia asked, lifting her gaze to meet his. ¡°My father spent up to hundred years of his life, trying to find them, all to no avail, probably they¡¯re dead¡± he said, that¡¯s the reason he had hope for finding a witch to save Adia, but all his efforts have been proving abortive, his father had long giving up on finding the daughters of Estelle La Fey, he just decided to give it a try or the sake of Adia, hopefully he would find one, but all to no avail, there wasn¡¯t even a glimpse of them. ¡°He must have really loved her then ¡± Adia reasoned, seeing Sebastian¡¯s father would go extra lengths for Estelle La Fey. ¡°Like a fool, and my mother kept following around him, like an idiot¡± he spat angrily. ¡± Seriously Seb, they¡¯re your parents, and your mother loved him, why the use of foulnguage¡±Adia scolded, ¡± She loved him like an idiot, I mean you runs after a man that way¡± he scoffed loudly, ¡± You¡¯ve loved Seb, you know how love can make one go crazy, just like I am over you, you should know I¡¯m crazy over you¡± she confessed stating a fact. ¡± He treated her like a nobody, he really did he dirty, you know¡± he says, anger resounding from him. ¡± How?¡± ¡± How do you think Logan came to life?¡± ¡± Even after Estelle¡¯s death, he never acknowledged Celeste once, acting like he¡¯s the first man to love, he went around delving his dick into any pussy he could find, taking it as a way of satiating himself, then he ended up impregnating Celeste personal maid¡± he scoffed, how life works, Celeste took Moreau from her mistress, and her own maid did the same to her. ¡± But Celeste wouldn¡¯t just sit back, so she killed the maid immediately after childbirth¡± Sebastian concluded, how he wished the maid was not dead yet, so he could kill her over and over again. ¡°That¡¯s harsh¡± Adia voiced out, Vampires could be really heartless. ¡°What¡¯s harsh?¡± He questioned, ¡°What your mother did, I wonder how Logan grew up without a mother¡± she said in pity, speaking of Logan, she hasn¡¯t seen his break light for God knows how long, he just disappeared, ¡°He deserves it Adia¡± ¡°But it¡¯s not his fault, he¡¯s just a result of your father¡¯s infidelity, he shouldn¡¯t be the one to suffer for it..¡± Adia reasoned out, besides Logan was not there when Moreau and the so-called maid was doing the deed. ¡°As long as he¡¯s a product of then, he doesn¡¯t deserve to be called my brother..¡± ¡°It¡¯s not his fault your father cheated¡± Adia¡¯s voice resounded in his ears, ¡± Do you know what angers me the most?¡± Sebastian asked, gritting his teeth angrily. ¡± What¡¯s that¡± ¡± Celeste still went ahead and forgave him, and then had another pregnancy for him, that¡¯s when she had Ace and Arion¡± ¡± Celeste¡¯s so stupid¡± he said, rolling his eyes, not wanting to remember his childhood days, how Celeste kept trying to win Moreau¡¯s favor, and he just kept tossing her away like trash. ¡± Language, Sebastian, she¡¯s your mother¡± Adia scolded, pinching his cheeks, taking Sebastian by surprise, when did her hands even reach his face. ¡°That doesn¡¯t change the fact that she¡¯s spent all her life running after a man who never regarded her, like an idiot¡± ¡± Seriously Adia?¡± Sebastian raised a brow at her, feeling her hands on his cheeks as she put pressure in pinching it. ¡± You don¡¯t refer to your mother that way¡± Adia said, from the look of things, Sebastian has a very bad rtionship with his parents, this is the first time she¡¯s even heard him speak about them, in fact she never knew he had parents up to this day. ¡°That¡¯s because of love Seb, anyone would do the same¡± she said, she would do the same. ¡± Seb..¡± Adia called softly, cing her hands on his. ¡°Yes¡± he answered, ¡± What will you do if someone snatches me away from you, I know you don¡¯t love me yet to that extent, but just create a scenario of that¡± she requested, getting up from the bed, as she knelt before him, in between his legs, cing her hands on his shoulders, locking her eyes with his. ¡°Or rather, let me change that, what if I die one day by someone¡¯s hands, what would you do then?¡± She asked not removing her gaze from him, but instead of getting a reaction from him, she felt Sebastian stiffen, and the air around her suddenly became suffocating. 110 The air around Adia was so suffocating, she felt her throat tightening, finding it difficult to breathe. ¡°I¡¯m sorry if I made you angry¡± she managed to say, ¡°I just..¡± she was taken unaware by Sebastian who kissed her, cutting her short from saying anything further. Adia¡¯s eyes opened wide in surprise, shocked that he kissed her, but who was she to back down, she ced her hands on his neck kissing him back, feeling his sweet taste. Never did she think that a man as domineering, dominant and masculine as Sebastian, would taste this good. His lips tasted, that she didn¡¯t mind kissing him forever, as long as he was hers. The tense atmosphere around her suddenly subsided as if it was never there, he circled his arms around her waist, drawing her closer to him, as he made her sit on his legs, in a way that she was now straddling him. Breaking away from the kiss he spoke, ¡°Any one who daresy their hands on you, will lose it forever¡± he looked straight into her eyes as if making her a vow. ¡°And I¡¯ll never let you die, Never¡± he added as if making a deration, as something Adia couldn¡¯t just ce her hands on shed his eyes, but did it feel like she was actually dying, she strangely felt scared. ¡°I know¡± she said pushing that thought away, she¡¯s not going anywhere, maybe it¡¯s just her gut feeling, she reasoned. Earlier when Adia said those words, a wave of anger Sebastian haven¡¯t felt before, just rushed into him, the fact that she¡¯s actually going to die, if they don¡¯t find a solution, angering him the most, if it was any other person with him at this moment, he could not promise, if the person would have made it out of his presence alive, but this is Adia we are talking about, he can, nor will ever hurt her again, or let anyoney a finger on her. Thinking of how to calm himself down, before he loses it, he tried kissing her, and it worked, his anger actually subsided, like she was his natural remedy, everything within him seemed to calm down.All content is ?

Adia signed heavily, she knew he was going to say this, he¡¯ll either shove her off, or drive into another whole different topic. ¡°And that¡¯s what I can¡¯t do¡± she muttered with a sad look on her face. ¡°I¡¯ve been trying so hard to hate, but I just can¡¯t, so I guess, I¡¯ll love you, don¡¯t worry my love for you will be enough for the both of us, just promise never to leave me¡± she voiced out, caressing his cheeks softly, at least now, Sebastian allows here close to him, and even touch him, that¡¯s enough for her, as long as he holds her near, she¡¯s fine, she¡¯ll wait, until the day he finally reciprocates his feelings. ¡°The thing is Ad¡­¡± Adia knew what he was going to say, he¡¯s going to try and discourage her, so before he could utter any more words, she leaned over and kissed him. Her tongue found its way into his wickedly sweet mouth, as their tongues collided with each other, finally, she¡¯s getting better in kisses, very soon, she¡¯ll be a good kisser, very soon she¡¯ll be able to meet up with the ferocity he uses in kissing her, just a few more kisses. Her hands slid into his shirt, as she wanted to do more than just kiss him, sadly she¡¯s pregnant, because she wanted him to do sinful things to her, but she can¡¯t guarantee having sex when pregnant. Breaking away from the kiss, she resorted to ask a question, ¡°Seb, can I ask you a question?¡± she asked, biting her lips. Sebastian¡¯s face wore a grin, as he moved his hands to her lower lips, releasing it from her teeth¡¯s hold, as he ran his thumb through it. ¡°Stop abusing your lips, wife,¡± he said. I¡¯m a dry seductive voice, that seemed to send butterflies in her tummy, he just called her wife, and Sebastian finally acknowledged her as his. ¡°It¡¯s meant for me alone¡± he said, parting her lips, sliding his thumb into her mouth, Adia felt like she was on top of the world, his thumb inside her mouth was making her feel insane, what If they¡­she¡¯ll just die. ¡°What¡¯s your question?¡± He asked her, removing his thumb from her mouth. ¡°Well¡± she began, ¡°I was just wondering if we could have¡­. you know..¡± she stuttered, gulping down nervously, ¡± We could have what¡± a hint of mischief shed his eyes, as he immediately caught a hint of what Adia was driving out. ¡± Have sex..¡± she said with all the courage she could muster, raising her voice a bit. ¡± Let¡¯s have sex.. if it¡¯s safe though¡± she muttered, dropping her head down, her face turning red in embarrassment. She heard him chuckling, he ced his hand on her chin, raising her head up slowly, ¡°I wish we could..¡± he said honestly, sucking on his teeth. ¡°Why can¡¯t we..? she asked innocently, ¡± Because we can¡¯t¡± came his curt reply, ¡°Why?¡± She pouted, why is she acting this way?, She questioned herself. ¡°Why don¡¯t we try..¡± his lips pulled up, as he moved slowly to her neck, his hot breath fanning her neck, as she boiled red, ¡± Go to bed, Adia, have some rest¡± he whispered to her ears, redrawing from her. Adia just watched as he lifted her off his body, with ease, tucking her inside the duvet, she actually thought he wanted to do something to her¡­ ¡°I¡¯ll be going now,¡± he informed preparing to leave, but was held back by Adia, ¡°Don¡¯t go¡± she muttered, scared that something might stir up in her again and she might lose it. ¡°I¡¯m scared¡± she spoke out, ¡°I¡¯m scared that my hallucinations might start again, it¡¯s safer with you here¡± she added, still holding his hand, hoping he agrees to his demands. ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll put you to sleep¡± he agreed, sitting at the bridge of the bed, he has to find Beau or the idiot will take forever toe. 111 Cora walked into Evans office as he looked up at her in surprise, he didn¡¯t expect to see her. ¡°Cora¡± he called standing up from his feet as he approached her. ¡°I didn¡¯t expect to see you here..¡± he said, noticing the sullen look on her face. ¡°Is anything the matter?¡± He asked, it was so unlike her to look so down. ¡°Yes I¡¯m fine..¡± she replied shing a smile at him, loosening her dull demeanor a bit. ¡°Why are you here?¡± He queried, she never liked to be seen around his office, what is she doing here now? ¡°I came to see you, ¡± she said, walking close to him, wrapping her arms around his neck. ¡°Ok¡­..¡± he drawled out, circling his hands on her waist. ¡°Hmm¡± Cora mumbled to herself, leaning over to kiss him,Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. ¡°Cora¡± he called breaking away from the kiss. ¡°What are you doing?¡± He asked, she¡¯s kind of behaving strange. ¡°Initiating sex, I obviously came here to f*ck you, got any problem with that?¡± She asked innocently, ¡± You know I¡¯d never¡± the corner of Evans lips pulled up, as he pressed an invisible button on his table, automatically locking the door. He yanked her waist, carrying her up, as he ced her briskly on the table, he lifted her skirt up, revealing her wless thighs, he gathered her skirt up to her waist, now that only her ckced panties were seen. Drawing imaginary lines on herps, his maleficent fingers finding it¡¯s way to her devil¡¯s doorbell, which was already wet with her love juices, making it easier for him to prate into it. He slid a finger into it, as his finger easily went in, she came prepared for him, he drove his finger in and out, her moans of pleasure filling the air, thankfully, the walls around his office are soundproof, so she can moan as loud as she wants. He took a look at her, he noticed her head was shoveled backwards, making him hiss in disappointment, ¡°Bad, bad girl¡± he said in a dissatisfying groan, his voice sending shivers down her spine. ¡°Look at me, or I¡¯ll stop¡±he threatened, ¡°No don¡¯t stop¡± Cory chimed in, gasping loud, she has already reached the peak, and may have an orgasm soon, he¡¯s so good at this, he can¡¯t stop now. ¡°Good girl¡± he smiled against her neck, his hot breath fanning her face. His fingers mischievously slipped out of the devil¡¯s doorbell, as he thought on other things to do to her. Before she could groan out in protest, for pulling out, his sexy fingers wickedly found its way to her blouse, as he slowly unbottened the first few buttons, now that her breasts were now peaking out. Then his mouthtched unto her breasts as he sucked on it greedily, biting it hard from time to time. Her loud moans began to escape her mouth, first as a soft whimper and mewing, as time ticked by, as he so increased his pressure on her breasts, his mouth on her breasts was literally driving her crazy, so crazy that she wanted more, she¡¯ll never be able to get enough of Evans Montenero, though they¡¯ve had sex a couple of times before, he seems to be getting better. ¡°Oh please I can¡¯t take it anymore¡± she moaned lifing his head up from her breasts, as his sinful gaze met hers. She really wants him to touch her there, and fill the vacuum he left empty, she doesn¡¯t know why he stopped touching he there, but now she wants him back, more than ever, Finally, he heeded to her pleas, and touched her there, for a split second, it felt as is if she was actually going to perish in a good way, every good stroke he bestowed upon her, seems to make her lose her mind, the way his daring fingers felt inside her, it felt so good, so hot, but that was not enough, she wanted something else¡­.. She shifted against him urging him to do more, but Evans only smiled mischievously, he totally loves it when she does it, and he loves to taunt her a lot. Cora moaned in satisfaction, grinding her ass against the table, as she reached out for his lips, she kissed him hungrily, their tongue ying in the same rhythm, she explored the insides of his mouth, sucking on his lips greedily, while he did the same to her. Feeling assured that he had prepared her, well enough, he removed his fingers from her insides, parting her legs, so he could get a better view of her. Breaking away from the kiss, he moved downwards, Squatting in front of her sex, he licked his lips hungrily, ready to devour her whole, with his sinful tongue.

Using her Vampire strength, in a sh, she moved his head from her sex, holding him by his shoulders, she pushed him straight to the chair, that sat at the side of his office In a sh, as his back hit the chair with a very strong impact, before he could even react, Cora was already on top of him, as her hands quickly reached for his zipper, his lips curved up, her feisty actions, arousing him more than ever. 112 Cora settled herself on top of Evans as she made him sit on the chair, without wasting any time, she hastily reached for his trousers, unzipping his pants, she pulled off his belt, flinging it to a corner, she didn¡¯t fail to notice hisrge bulge, he was as well ready for her.

But howe he¡¯s so strong, she totally forgot that he¡¯s a vampire. ¡°That is for making me go through a lot¡± she said angrily, ¡°And this is for barging into my house, saying rubbish¡± she added,nding another p, at the other side of his cheek, ¡± This for killing those men, when you¡¯re at fault¡± she gave him another p, ¡± And this for opening your filthy mouth to call yourself, my baby¡¯s godfather, you don¡¯t f*cking deserve to be called that, like who does that, after you made their mother suffer, you really got the nerves you know¡± she concluded, feeling her wrist hurt from the series of ps she gave him, now it was her turn to hide, because she could see his eyes turning red in color¡­. ¡°Ouch¡± Beau spat, his eyes returning to their normal colors as he smiled at Adia. ¡°You¡¯re so lucky you are Sebastian¡¯s woman, if not I wouldn¡¯t hesitate to shred you to pieces..* he said, his ever annoying smile, never leaving his face, Adia could clearly hear the threat in his voice, Adia could feel chills down her spine, h was not joking when he said that, but she will never be intimidated by him, she has Sebastian by her side, he will fight for her. ¡°Shut up¡± she snapped angrily at him, ¡°Not another word from you, Beau whatever¡­ you¡¯re meant to be on your knees now, begging for, forgiveness, you¡¯re an ingrate you know¡± she stated, as Sebastian just stood quietly beside her, his lips pulled up in a satisfied smile, the moment she pped Beau, he loves the feisty woman, she has grown to be, though they will have to apply some ice to her wrist or that area can get swollen. ¡± I sincerely apologize, wife of my dear friend¡± he begged, feigning a sad face. ¡± I was just having fun that¡¯s all. Who would have expected Sebastian to react like this, I mean he doesn¡¯t take women seriously, after he lost his first love, Aisling, you know her right?¡± He pointed out, as Adia eyed him. Now she knows why Arion hates this man, like, He¡¯s annoying as hell, he just sprouts any rubbish thates out of his mouth, how was he even friends with Sebastian in the first ce, he is immature, at the same time cunning. ¡°I hate you already..¡± Adia blurted out, seriously she doesn¡¯t like Beau one bit, the only thing she admires about him, Is his beauty, nothing else. ¡°I know, everyone hates me, I have no friends, that¡¯s to show how everyone hates me¡± he said, with a serious tone this time, ¡± Can you keep a secret?¡± He whispered at Adia, who Rolled her eyes at him. ¡± Sebastian here is the only friend I have, he is the only one who understands me, that¡¯s why I¡¯ll forever be indebted to him, mind you.. that¡¯s the only reason I¡¯m letting you go, alive and whole..¡± he deadpanned on the alive and whole in a threatening tone. ¡± Because Sebastian protects you, that brings us to a conclusion that I¡¯m always at your service, because anything Sebastian protects, I protect¡± he voiced out, pledging his allegiance to Adia. ¡°So let me officially apologize for what I did to you..¡± he began, ¡°I¡¯m sorry Adia for what I did to you, it will never repeat itself again, ever¡± he begged, using a side eyes to look at Sebastian, who just stood tall, he¡¯s also using this Media to tame Sebastian, now¡¯s not the right time for him, to be beaten to a pulp. ¡°Just reverse what you did to me..¡± Adia said, not in the mood to speak with him, he¡¯s just ruining everything, he even ruined her breakfast, now her wrist hurts like hell. ¡°Done, it is done..¡± he stated, ¡°Come in Adia..¡± Sebastian chimed in, holding her by her shoulders, he had long noticed her difort, it seemed as if her wrists were hurting her, she hit beau too hard. ¡°I¡¯ll have Monica attend to this let¡¯s go upstairs¡­¡± he said leading Adia upstairs, ¡± And you,..¡± he referred to Beau, who just stood watching them.. ¡± I¡¯ll join you in my study soon, ¡± he added. .. .. .. ¡± Why are you here?¡± Sebastian questioned Beau immediately as he walked into his study. ¡°To see why you would take such a risk¡± he spat, turning to face Sebastian. ¡°Rumors are going round, Hunter¡­¡± he informed, in a serious tone. ¡°The Vampires are saying the Moreau¡¯s did all these to gain more power, you know it¡¯s Forbidden to impregnate a human, the hybrid babies are considered threats¡± he stated, Beau was sure Sebastian already knows about all these, then why did he go ahead to endanger not only the mother¡¯s life but also the children. ¡°It just happened, did you expect me to abort the pregnancy, Adia wouldn¡¯t even hear of that¡± ¡°But she has no idea that she¡¯s dying, can¡¯t you see Sebastian, this is not meant to be happening, ¡± ¡°If I talk to the elders of Britaris, they will understand that Adia is a Willing participant and it just happened, I never nned for this¡± Sebastian voiced out, this whole thing is seriously eating him up. ¡°And what if you seed in keeping the children, will you just let Adia die, there¡¯s no fucking time Sebastian..¡± Beau stated, raising his voice a bit. ¡± Arion is already taking care of things, we will find a witch soon, but I need you to do one thing for me Beau..¡± he began, ¡± You have to be in Britaris, you¡¯re the only one I can trust there, you have to keep the elders in check, and prevent them froming here, while I find a way to save Adia, I¡¯m never gonna let her die¡­never¡± Sebastian vowed, there must be a way out of it. ¡± How do you n on finding a witch, Sebastian, they¡¯ve all gone extinct? ¡± Beau said, all witches were all burnt down. ¡°Not all¡± Sebastian informed, as the Estelle sisters must be hiding somewhere, and he must be sure to find them.Content bel0ngs to N?vel(D)r/a/ma.Org. ¡°I don¡¯t know Sebastian, but how are you even sure Adia¡¯s gonna survive this?¡± Beau grunted in utter frustration, this was no longer the yful annoying Beau, who always wore a choking smile on his face, that annoying look has been reced with a serious and dangerous expression. ¡°Arion had a vision¡­¡± Sebastian muttered, as Beau turned his head sharply to look at him. 115 Adia came downstairs for the breakfast, with Monica behind her,st night was literally the best night she has ever had, for the past few days now, all because of Beau and the stupid stunts he pulled up on her, speaking of Beau she hopes the idiot Is not anywhere around this house, his presence infuriates her, she¡¯s still pissed at him for what he did to her. ¡°Come join me for breakfast¡± Adia invited Monica settling down, ¡°No, no, I¡¯ll have mer,¡± Monica politely refused, but Adia was not gonna give up again, ¡°Come on, you¡¯re no longer a maid here, and Sebastian is totally cool with it, fell free and join me¡± Adia smiled gesturing her toe over. ¡°Ok..¡± Monica finally epted, knowing it would be pointless arguing with Adia, so she just settled for breakfast, Adia has been nothing but kind to her, feeling the empty void in her for losing a sister, Adia was like the perfect recement for the sister she lost, if not even better. ¡°Where¡¯s Sebastian?, I¡¯ve not seen him around¡± Adia asked looking around the house. ¡°I have no idea..¡± Monica replied, honestly that kind of question was not meant for her Sebastian is like a ghost in this house, thankfully to Adia¡¯s presence in the house you can now see him on a few asions, back in the past, he hardly lived here as he travelled from ce to ce,ing only once in a blue moon. ¡°What about Beau?, Is he still here?¡± ¡°No idea either..¡± Monica truthfully replied, ¡°Ok then, enjoy your breakfast hmm¡±. .. .. .. ¡°Good morning Adia¡± the most annoying voice ever sounded in Adia¡¯s ears, as she came in contact with the most annoying person ever, wearing the most annoying smile, Beau Gerald.Content bel0ngs to N?vel(D)r/a/ma.Org. ¡°What do you want?¡± She snapped angrily at him, ¡°No, no, no¡­¡± he remarked shaking his head in disapproval, ¡°That was harsh. ..¡± he added, carrying a sad face, ¡°Serves you right..¡± Adia spat, she thought he was long gone, and was very surprised to see him, alone, Sebastian was not with him. ¡°Are you by any chance looking for your husband?¡± He questioned noticing that her eyes were scanning the room. ¡°That¡¯s none of your business¡­¡± she red at him, ¡°Are we gonna be like this forever¡­¡± he began, ¡°I thought I apologized for what I did¡­.¡± He stated, ¡°Take your damn apology to your grave¡­¡± she rudely spat at him, wondering why she¡¯s even standing with him, engaging in a stupid conversation. ¡°Sadly I¡¯m not dying, at least not anytime soon, unlike you¡­¡± he mumbled thest words, audible enough for Adia to hear, as she looked at him sharply, ¡± Don¡¯t get me wrong, I meant you¡¯re a human, I, a vampire, unlike me you can die any time, any day, so¡­it¡¯s best you forgive me now before it¡¯s toote.. you never can tell..¡± he stressed out thest words, his wide smile still on his face. ¡± I¡­¡± Adia began to throw an insult at him, but was suddenly interuptted by a loud voice, ¡°Beau!!¡± Sebastian alighted the stairs angrily, he heard all the rubbish Beau uttered earlier, that¡¯s how he is, he has no iota of shame, and sprouts rubbish all the time, that¡¯s why he wants him to leave this ce, Britaris is the best ce for him to be not here, ¡°Mind your words..¡± he said softly, but Beau knew fully well what was behind what he said, he can receive a punch from Sebastian anytime soon. ¡°I apologize, you too Adia, sorry..¡± he quickly chimed in smiling widely. ¡°Go to hell..¡± Adia mumbled at him, she hates men that speaks a lot. ¡°I¡¯ll be leaving now..¡± Beau announced.. ¡°Thank God..¡± Adia said out loud to his hearing, it¡¯s better he leaves.. ¡°But I¡¯ll be back soon, take care of yourself Adia, I¡¯ll be sure to bring logs of gifts on my next visit..¡± he informed them, but then no one was interested in his gifts. ¡°Suit yourself¡­¡± Adia rolled her eyes, watching him exit the ce, she was about to go upstairs when she heard him speak, ¡°Hello Laura, Rowan¡¯s girlfriend¡­¡± Laura was here?, Adia abruptly turned to face an approaching Laura, Beau had already long gone, probably he leaped away. ¡°Adia..¡± Laura called her face beaming with smiles as she rushed to hug Adia. ¡°Good morning sir¡­¡± she greeted Sebastian, who just waved at her, before leaving then both. ¡°Laura, I¡¯m so surprised to see you, are you here for work?¡± Adia asked, surprised that Laura came to see her, but she wasn¡¯t dressed like someone running an errand for work, but she Decided to ask nheless. ¡°No, I came to see you..¡± ¡°All right, then,e take a seat, I¡¯ll send for coffee..¡± Adia invited, happy to see Laura, she¡¯s being so scarce in the office and all, but she ns to resume soon, them Laura won¡¯t be too bored. ¡°No, that won¡¯t be necessary¡­¡± she politely refused, ¡°I just came to tell you that I¡¯ll be going on a vacation with Rowan..¡± she announced happily, after much pleading Rowan finally decided to adhere to her pleas, and take her out on a vacation to his hometown Britaris, she has heard So much about that ce, and can¡¯t wait to visit there. ¡°Wow, I¡¯m so happy for you, finnally you can have your man a to yourself..¡± Adia teased as they bothughed, ¡°I guess so¡± she chuckled, ¡°What about the office, who would assist Sebastian then?¡± Adia asked, Rowan and Laura usually took care of the office , whenever Sebastian was upied with something, now they¡¯re going on a vacation, wbo will take care of things around there. ¡°We already took care if that..¡± she responded, ¡°That¡¯s great then, make sure to have a good time. ..¡± ¡°I will, definitely..¡± ¡°And make sure to take care of yourself and the babies..¡± Laura advised as Adia nodded. ¡± Definitely, now go enjoy you Vacation¡± ¡± Bye Adia, I¡¯ll call you from time to time, I¡¯ll miss you so much¡± she pouted engulfing Adia in a hug. ¡± I¡¯ll miss you too..¡± ¡°Bye..¡± Laura waved releasing herself from the hug, ¡°Have fun..¡± Adia smiled watching Laura leave, ¡°Oh gosh, when will I have my own vacation¡­ alone with Sebastian¡± she mumbled to herself, feeling jealous at Laura, she definitely wants a vacation with Sebastian to, just the two of them. 116 ¡°Oh shit¡± Adia cursed loudly, now regretting why she begged Sebastian to allow here to work all by herself, she insisted, she wanted toe alone, after saying hi to Addison, even when he requested either Ma or Mickelson went with her she refused, now she¡¯s stranded, not even a single taxi is in sight, not only that her battery Is dead, so she can¡¯t make any calls, if not, she would have already called for a car, but now she¡¯s stranded. ¡°Seriously!!¡± She eximed as the next car zoomed past her, is she transparent today, that all the cars are just passing by, as if a person is not there, regardless of the fact she even waved, at least they should have pity for a pregnant woman. Three days has passed since the day Beau left, also with Laura and Rowan, so she decided to go to the office and see the new secretary appointed to work for Sebastian, it¡¯s jealousy that mainly dragged her out of the house, she wanted to know how pretty the secretary was, now, it¡¯s mission gone wrong. Adia waved get hands in the air, as she noticed another vehicle approaching, she prayed within herself, that this one would stop this time, and luckily the car stopped right in front of her. She hurried to the window to ask for help, at least a lift would do¡­ ¡°Excuse m¡­.¡± Her voice trailed off the moment she saw the person in the car, her worst nightmare¡­ ¡°You¡­.¡± She stammered shakily, stepping a few meters backwards, why does it have to be today, it¡¯s like the heavens are really against her.. ¡°Hi Adia, long time, you look scared, don¡¯t worry I won¡¯t bite..¡± she smiled at Adia, who kept walking backwards in fear, ¡°Leave me alone Kate..¡± she stuttered, stumbling on her feet. ¡°I will, I just want to borrow you for¡­.. hmmm¡­let me say an hour, what do you say..?¡± Kate shed a smile at her, but Adia knew nothing but mischief was behind that smile of hers. ¡± Just let me go..¡± Adia begged, her eyes already watering with tears, she¡¯s still suffering from thest encounter they had, Running away, is not even an option, Kate will catch her in seconds, she¡¯s a vampire, why does it have to be today, she would have just listened to Sebastian and stayed put, now she¡¯s in deep trouble, and Sebastian might be wondering where she is right now, thest encounter she had with Kate must not repeat itself. ¡°Sadly, I won¡¯t¡± Kate drawled out, dashing out if her car in a sh, in the next second she was already in front of Adia, before Adia could say anything else, Kate had already grabbed her by her head, hitting Adia¡¯s head on the car, rendering her unconscious. .. .. .. Adia blinked her eyes a few times, feeling a sharp pain on her head, he noticed she was seated on a chair, her head hanging backwards, she ced her hand on her head, as she raised it slowly, wondering how she woke up feeling this much pain, that¡¯s when she remembered what happened.. ¡°Kate!!¡± She yelled standing on in a Swift move, ignoring all the pains she felt, right now she¡¯s in danger. ¡°Yes baby..¡± someone answered, as Adia looked forward, to see Kate seated on a chair before her, the table between both chairs, the only thing separating them.Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

Her eyes scanned the restaurant, thankfully they were people around, she can easily scream for help. ¡°Don¡¯t even think about it..¡± Kate chimed in, as if reading her thoughts. ¡°They have all beenpelled by me, to sit tight, till we are done with our conversation, so if you like scream your lungs out, no one will pay attention to you¡± she informed, as Adia red at her, she has not even changed a bit, still as aggressive as ever, she¡¯s such a scoundrel, who does she think she is topel a restaurant full of people just for her own selfish gains. ¡°Coffee¡­¡± Kate pointed at the hot coffee served in front of Adia. ¡°No thanks..¡± she refused, ¡°Why did you bring me here?¡± She asked, ¡°Have a sit¡± Kate offered, ¡°No thank you¡± Adia refused, ¡°Suit yourself¡± she scoffed, ¡°Why are you like this, I mean you¡¯re calm, I expected you to have already done something unthinkable¡± Adia reasoned out, it¡¯s so unusual for Kate to get this calm, what is she cooking up, she is up to something. Kate let out a longugh as she began, ¡°Actually, I have thought about that before¡± ¡°Then I realized there was no need for me to run after Sebastian, when he will be mine soon, he wille back running into my arms¡± Kate smiled as Adia shot daggers at her, marveled at her craziness, she just had really lost her mind. ¡± What do you mean?¡± Sebastian will never choose Kate, her madness worsened more than ever. ¡± Like I should just chill, since you¡¯re not going to be with us three months from now.¡±she spat nonchntly, ¡± What are you trying to say?¡± Adia red at her, ¡± Don¡¯t you get it Adia, you¡¯re going to die, you have less than three months to live..¡± she beganughing out like a maniac at the top of her voice as Adia stilled. 117 Adia felt as if her whole world hade crashing in a second, as she tried registering what Kate just said, what did she mean by, she had less than three months to live, Kate must have really gone mad, though vampires don¡¯t get sick, her¡¯s is different. ¡°You¡¯re mad, I¡¯m outta here¡­¡± adia said, making her way to leave. ¡°I know you don¡¯t believe me, but it¡¯s truth Adia, you¡¯re dying, Sebastian has just been using you for his selfish gains, so sad..¡± Kate pouted sadly, and the next minute her lips pulled up into a wide smile. ¡°Honestly Adia, I feel bad for you..¡± she began, as she signed deeply ¡°But no, I shouldn¡¯t feel bad, you deserve all of this and just so you know.. I¡¯m not hurting you any more, I mean why would I..¡± she scoffed, shrugging her shoulders. ¡°You¡¯re as good as dead, so I¡¯ll just let you enjoy yourst days, and when you finally die Sebastian can finally be mine ¡± she said happily, her face beaming with smiles. ¡°No worries though, I promise to take care of your kids, as though they are mine, I¡¯ll be the perfect mother ¡± she uttered in a coaxing tone smiling wickedly at Adia, she will never know what hit her. ¡°You ¡­you¡¯re lying rig¡­ht..¡±Adia stuttered pointing usingly at Kate, she felt suffocated, as if her heart was being shattered into a million pieces, marveling if what Kate just said is true.

Thankfully Logan sessfully brought the antidote for her, and it was administered to her sessfully. She¡¯s been asleep since the previous day, Monica was more than grateful for Logan¡¯s help, thankfully Adia will be free from pain. ¡°Adia¡± she called happily, removing the shutters, allowing light into the room ¡°Adia¡± she called again, cing the tray carefully at the bedside. ¡°Hmm¡± Adia scrambled on the bed, using her hand to block the light that was entering her eyes as she yawned loudly. That¡¯s when she realized something, she was not feeling pain anymore, she quickly ced her hands on her tummy, and felt relieved that her baby bump was still intact, her unborn babies are safe, now she can finally smile. She sat up from the bed, as she swept her gaze to Monica, who stood by the bedside, her face beaming with smiles. ¡°Good morning Adia..¡± Monica greeted her smile not falling from her face. ¡°What are you doing here?¡± Adia asked sharply, she still has not forgotten what these people did to her. ¡°I brought you water, you must be thirsty right?¡± Monica questioned, picking the cup up from the tray as she handed it over to Adia, who collected the cup from her. Monica thought Adia was going to have a sip, but was shocked beyond measure, when Adia suddenly threw the cup on the floor, the cup shattering to pieces. ¡°Adia.. what are you ..¡± she stammered speechlessly. ¡°Get out..¡± Adia yelled angrily, not wanting to see any of them, she can¡¯t believe Monica or her people like her, even Cora. ¡°But¡­¡± ¡°I said out!!!¡± Adia screamed at the top of her voice, ¡°And I never want to see you anywhere around me, just get out..¡± she added, as Monica wondered what was going on with Adia, she had never acted this harsh to her before.All content is ?

Sebastian sat leisurely on the sofa, as Adia requested every one gathered for a very important meeting. He doesn¡¯t know what she was thinking about, but he already has an idea that it must be whatever Kate told her. Monica stood at a corner, while Cora sat nervously beside Evans, Ace and Arion settled at the staircase terrace waiting as well, Arion never wanted to be here, but Sebastian had insisted he came. While Logan just stood at a quiet corner, Adia insisted she came too. After a few minutes of waiting for the spotlight, Adia, she finally came down. She has not stepped out of her room since she recovered, now she is gathering them for God knows what speech she¡¯s gonna give. ¡°Adia,¡± Cora called as she ran to embrace her friend, ¡°Don¡¯t touch me..¡± Adia snapped, stepping backwards from Cora who stared at her confused. ¡°Don¡¯t even think of it¡­¡± she added, her eyes zing with anger. ¡°Adia what¡¯s this.. is anything the problem..¡± Cora asked, confused as hell. ¡°Adia this, Adia that..

I¡¯m sorry, but what other thing am I hiding?¡± ¡°You¡¯re so impossible Cora, so you¡¯re gonna act as if you have no idea that I have just less than three months to live!!!¡± Adia eximed, as everyone in the room froze, though not everyone, some others, had already seen thising. 121 MUSIC RECOMMENDATIONS¡­¡­CARDIGAN BY TAYLOR SWIFT¡­. *****All content is ? N0velDrama.Org. Cora felt a huge ball of tears roll down her cheeks, her words stuck in her throat, she found it impossible to say anything, all her words stuck, unable toe out. Never did she expect the truth toe out this soon, nor like this, she thought she still had time to process everything and tell Adia the truth, but now it¡¯s all out, I¡¯m the most possible way ever, the only thing evident in Adia¡¯s eyes, we¡¯re betrayal, hate and angry, she¡¯s never seen Adia this angry, nheless the had every right to be this angry, they all did her wrong, she was literally yed dirty, but it was never in her power, things tend to happen, it just happened¡­ ¡°You¡­you¡­kn..¡± she stammered, managing to get her voice back, but nothing still seemed to want toe out, she was utterly speechless beyond measure. ¡°Of course I know¡­¡± Adia snapped in at the top of her voice. ¡°I know everything, all the lies, I¡¯ve been living in, I know everything¡­¡± she said, her beautiful Hazel eyesced with nothing but pure anger, as tears flowed down her cheeks, each time she remembers that she¡¯s going to die soon, it felt as if her heart was shattering to pieces, she felt this suffocating grip on her heart. ¡°I thought, I had you all, but I just realized all I have is myself, at the end of the day, I¡¯m alone, I have done nothing but put you all first, I put you Sebastian first, I loved you, even after all the things you did to me, I almost literally died in your hands, but persevered, hoping one day, you¡¯lle to like me back, let me ask just one question..?¡± She paused, turning to face Sebastian. ¡°Were my expectations far too high?¡± She asked softly, with tear filled eyes, she had resolved within herself not to cry, and act too strongly, but the feeling was just too overbearing. ¡°All I want is a peaceful life filled with love?, Is that too much to ask for?¡± She asked no one in particr. ¡°I actually thought I meant something, I never knew I was just a vessel, I was just your pawn, more like a puppet, I just kept being swayed by your stupid good looks, nothing else, cause there¡¯s seriously nothing that drew me to you, you were cold, aloof, wicked, you even almost killed me once..¡± she choked out, ¡°But I still found myself drawn to you, I guess it¡¯s all because of your looks, nothing else, you vampires are sinful creatures, I mean how will you evene up with such a diabolical n, such facy..¡± she said as everyone wondered what she was driving at again, it seemed as if she came prepared for them. ¡°Who would have thought, Sebastian only impregnated me because he wanted power, you would have thought Ace was kind to me, because you all wanted power, because you want the Moreau¡¯s to be the most powerful family in all of the so-called britaris, I¡¯m just a tool you guys want to use to bear hybrid children, nothing else ¡± she pointed out, ncing at Sebastian, who just sat quietly, without uttering a word, still looking God damned handsome, how can she be admiring his looks, in this kind of situation?, She reprimanded herself, ready to charge at Sebastian again. ¡°All you guys want is the hybrid babies, so you can be the most invincible family in britaris, but you know what that¡¯s never gonna happen, because I¡¯m leaving this ce with my sister, it¡¯s better I die off elsewhere, hand over my sister and my babies to someone else, than let you sly vampires raise them¡­¡± she stated, ¡°That¡¯s enough Adia..¡±Arion chimed in, not being able to take any of the nonsense she¡¯s been saying, as he leaped off from where he wasnding swiftly in front of her, he was now standing in front of Adia, as Adia¡¯s angry eyed met his, which was expressionless as well, it held no joy in them ¡°What¡¯s enough, and step away from me..¡± she red, making way to push him away, but a re from him was enough to stop her, as she remembered, Arion was not Sebastian who takes things lightly with her, both her and Arion has never been in good terms, and he wouldn¡¯t hesitate to snap her neck, though she¡¯s angry, she shouldn¡¯t forget she¡¯s challenging vampires, creatures with no heart. ¡°Tsk tsk tsk..¡± Arion began, ¡°Look, Adia, don¡¯t think too highly of yourself, I wonder what my brother even sees in you, you tend to ask like a child, a lot¡­¡± he emphasized, rolling his eyes, as if he was bored of staring at her face. ¡°I can¡¯t believe Sebastian called me here, for this¡­and that you of all people believed the rubbish that came from Kate¡¯s mouth¡± he referred sarcastically to what Adia had been saying. ¡°Like what¡¯s the big deal..¡± ¡°What¡¯s the big deal¡­¡± Adia repeatedly mumbled to herself, so her dying soon is not a big deal, seriously how¡¯s Arion Sebastian¡¯s brother, he¡¯s worse than them all. ¡°Yes, Adia peters it¡¯s not a big deal..¡± he confirmed again ring dangerously at her, scaring Adia in some way, as she avoided his void gray orbs, she¡¯s never stayed up close to this blonde Moreau, up till today, and damn he¡¯s one hell of a scary vampire. ¡°Everything that happened just happened, you¡¯re really a child you know, everyone here knows the circumstances of that thing you call a pregnancy¡­¡± he uttered harshly at her, everyone just kept mute watching them both, Arion tends to speak and act without thinking, it¡¯s pointless trying to stop him, once he starts something he makes sure to finish it. ¡°It¡¯s not a thing, and mind your damnnguage when speaking to me Mr..¡± Adia warned sternly.. ¡°Why?, You¡¯re not older than me, in fact you¡¯re the youngest person here, we are all centuries older than you, oh asides from the one you call a sister.. so mind yournguage..¡± ¡°And don¡¯t think I¡¯ll take it lightly, when you speak I¡¯ll of my family¡­jeez, look at her speaking so bad of the Moreau¡¯s..¡±he groaned running his hands through his hair. ¡°Just so you know, no one wants your unborn babies for power, and no one has been deceiving you here, they all kept the truth from you because that was necessary to help youst longer, I wonder how you will live now is you keep being reminded that you¡¯re dying, it will only deteriorate your health, cause you¡¯ll never be able to stop thinking of that fact¡± he said as a matter of factly , she will forever be bothered by that. ¡°That¡¯s why I told my Brother from the start to just end your life to avoid problems, now see, you¡¯ve be a problem..¡± he hissed out, ¡°I¡¯ve be a problem?¡± Adia questioned chuckling, ¡°Yes, you¡¯ve always been a problem..¡± he repeated, as Adia scoffed loudly taking a look round the room, everyone just stayed where they were without saying anything, ¡°You¡¯re nothing but a dick..¡± she spat angrily, ¡°I know.. Adia, but face the truth, now you know about it, and stop giving me a headache..¡±. ¡°I hate you..¡± ¡°You¡¯re free to, please, feel free to do so¡­¡± he said as Adia fumed with anger at his nonchnce. ¡°I¡­¡± ¡°And just you know, you¡¯re so lucky Sebastian¡¯s the one that got you pregnant, cause if it was me, or my sly twin brother over there, ¡± he pointed at Ace, as his curved, ¡°I¡¯m not sure, you¡¯ll still have your hands intact, you can¡¯t just go around pping every vampire you meet, it¡¯s a warning, the day you p the wrong guy, you¡¯ll definitely lose all your fingers, so be grateful that my Brother takes things lightly with you..¡± he rolled his eyes at her. ¡°That¡¯s enough for both of you..¡± Sebastian finally spoke out , having enough of their endlessebacks. ¡°You all can leave now..¡± ¡°With pleasure¡­¡± Arion chimed in, clicking his tongue, dashing out of their presence, using his vampire speed, finally the sharp tongued one is out. 122 ¡°Evans, take Cora home¡­¡± he added as Evans walked up to Cora, who was sobbing quietly as he led her out. ¡°You too Ace, I¡¯ll send for youter..¡± ¡°Sure..¡± Ace muttered walking away into one of the rooms. ¡°You too¡± he pointed at Monica who also left, sobbing as well. ¡°I was not done, why did you send them away?¡± Adia snapped at him angrily, but he ignored her and just went back to his seat majestically, ¡°Because I don¡¯t want a situation where you¡¯ll lose your tongue for bbing too much, ¡± he said to her, ¡°Lose my tongue¡­¡± she scoffed, cing her hands on both sides of her waist. ¡°Why did you lie to me?¡± She couldn¡¯t help but ask, the fact that they¡¯ve all been deceiving her, keeps on annoying and irritating her. ¡°I only did the needful, it was all for your own good, like what Arion said, your health will only deteriorate..¡± he exined, it was all done, so that she would think less, like who in their right senses would be happy if they¡¯re dying soon, so whilst they tried finding a solution for this, it was better to let her out of all of it. ¡°So I¡¯m really going to die..¡± she choked out in tears, ¡°Yes Adia¡­¡± he confirmed, there was no need in beating about the bush any longer, the deed has already been done, they¡¯ll just have to face reality, ¡°So you¡¯re just going to let me die.. just like that?¡± She asked in tears, ¡°No Adia, I¡¯m trying to find a solution for you to live, the truth is that everything about you isplicated, it just keeps wearing me out..¡± Sebastian confessed, creasing his brows. ¡°You¡¯re just like a mystery, I mean we just had sex once, and that got you pregnant, whereas, it takes a lot of time before a vampire reproduces¡­¡± he said, vampires hardly reproduce, that¡¯s why even after living for such a long time, his father has just three children. ¡°Then all of a sudden, you just became pregnant, look Adia I¡¯ve had sex with countless humans before I met you, and trust me, none of them got pregnant, don¡¯t even talk about protection, I don¡¯t use that¡­¡± he said loud enough to her hearing, he has lived for centuries, he¡¯s old enough to know how vampires works, he has had sex with many women before, and doesn¡¯t even bother to use protection, especially with the humans, because it¡¯s hard before they get pregnant, but him and Adia, did it just once, and boom¡­.. she¡¯s pregnant. ¡°But it was just a night, we spent only one night together, and that got you pregnant¡­¡± ¡°Not only that, you look a lot like Aisling, my first love, at a first nce one would think you¡¯re her, but I knew Aisling well enough to know you¡¯re not her, the problem here is how you look just like her, how is that even possible, I¡¯ve looked into your family countless times, thinking maybe there might be something linking you to Aisling, probably we can save you with that, but nothing, your past generation has nothing to do with Aisling or even vampires, then how do you look so much like her?¡± He reasoned out, ¡°Then that brings us to thepelling part, you can¡¯t bepelled Adia, that has also given me sleepless nights, you¡¯re purely human, but howe you can¡¯t bepelled, you¡¯re not a witch, you have no trace of magic in you, I¡¯ve tried looking for any trace of magic in you, hopefully I can save you with that, but nothing, you¡¯re not a witch, neither do you have magic, nor does your familye from line of witches¡­¡± he paused, ¡°I also wonder how vampire blood can¡¯t heal you, if you¡¯re human, vampire blood is meant to heal you, at first I thought it¡¯s because you Carry vampire children, but that¡¯s not the case Adia, now tell me, why all these, hmm?¡± He questioned her, ¡°You look like my Ex who¡¯s long gone, you got pregnant from the one night stand we had, just one night, you can¡¯t bepelled, you¡¯re not a witch, you have no magic in you, vampire blood can¡¯t heal you..¡± he listed our staring intently at her. ¡°Now tell me Adia, what are you? Aren¡¯t you a mystery that can¡¯t be solved, everything revolving around you is so strange¡­and the fact none of these things can¡¯t stop your death, angers me a lot, what the hell are you, how did you¡­¡± ¡°Are you seriously asking me that?¡± She asked him, how does he expect her to know the answer to all that, ¡°Then who should I ask about that?, If not you¡± ¡°I¡¯m just telling you this so you won¡¯t go about ming others for your misfortune..¡± he spat, ¡°My misfortune..¡± she repeated in disbelief, ¡°Yes Adia, your misfortune, it¡¯s not my fault all of these are happening to you, it¡¯s nobody¡¯s fault, so stop ying the victim here, we¡¯re only doing this for your own good..¡± he said, how he¡¯s still calm after saying all this remains a puzzle to him, he supposed to be calming her down, not adding fuel to the fire, but she has to face reality.All content is ?

She has about one hundred missed calls from Cora, with fifty apologies texts, it¡¯s better Cora gives up, cause Adia wouldn¡¯t even bother opening the message. ¡°Good morning sister inw¡± Ace greeted in his usual jovial tone as he approached Adia who just came down from the stairs. ¡°I¡¯m not your sister inw¡± Adia stated nonchntly, walking away from him. ¡°Of course you are, my one and only sister inw..¡± he said with a bright smile. ¡°In case you have forgotten, this is a contract marriage, so think before you speak, don¡¯t go around saying rubbish..¡± she advised, leaving his sight, ¡°Damn..¡± Ace eximed watching Adia leave, she¡¯s so so fierce overnight, who would have thought she had this side of her, the once lovely Adia, has turned into a harsh one. Adia got to the dining table, sitting down elegantly, while the maids served her breakfast, she met Sebastian there, having his coffee as usual, but this time it wasn¡¯t coffee, but blood. For Three days now, non of them have spoken to each other, as they keep on ghosting one another, actually Adia badly wanted him to talk to her and beg for her forgiveness, but it seems like he didn¡¯t give a damn about her, or her feelings. He said such harsh words to her, during theirst conversation, when he was clearly the one at fault, but he never even bothered toe and apologize to her, and gave Adia the same attitude she¡¯s giving him. ¡°Son of a pig..¡± Adia cursed at him mumbling under her breath, the fact he hasn¡¯te to apologize, angering her, pushing her to the edge, she might soon pick up an object to hit, that handsome face of his. Like how can a human be so handsome?, She thought, but quickly corrected herself afterwards, he¡¯s not human, but it seems as if good look runs in their blood, from Sebastian down to his brothers, they are all handsome. ¡°Hmmm¡­¡±she cleared her throat, wanting to gain his attention. ¡°I know you won¡¯t reply, but rot in hell, I don¡¯t want your replies either, I¡¯ll be leaving this house..¡± she finally voiced out her thoughts, staying in this house was suffocating, she can¡¯t take it. ¡°No..¡± came Sebastian short reply, as Adia growled. ¡°Well, you can¡¯t stop me, I was informing you, not because I need your damn permission, so you know, so don¡¯t think too highly of yourself..¡± she said out loud. ¡°You¡¯re going no where Adia..¡± he stated, looking up at her for the first time. ¡°That¡¯s not up to you, to decide, so fuck you¡± she cursed at him. ¡°Well it is, I don¡¯t think you read the contract before signing it, it¡¯s stated that you do anything I say, and can¡¯t leave this house without my consent, at least not while you¡¯re still in this house ¡± he reminded her. ¡°The problem now is, I¡¯ll never get to leave here, because I¡¯ll just die afterwards..¡± she spat at him. ¡°Adia!!!¡± Sebastian called in a menacing and threatening tone. ¡°What??¡± ¡°It¡¯s not as if I¡¯m lying¡­.¡± She sneered, ¡°Whatever, you just made me lose my appetite, I¡¯ll be in the car¡± she spoke, getting up from the chair, walking out if Sebastian. .. .. .. ¡°Good morning sir..¡± Sebastian¡¯s secretary greeted standing up on her feet immediately she saw Sebastian walk in. Sebastian waved at her as he proceeded to walk in, but was stopped by the secretary, ¡°Sir..¡± she called, ¡°Well, this proposal just came in¡­¡± she stopped speaking, as she saw a womane in, not just any woman, but a pregnant woman. ¡°Good day ma¡¯am, but you¡¯re not supposed to be here¡± she said softly to Adia, who red at her. Adia took a good look at the secretary, this one was totally different from Laura, she wasn¡¯t here to work, but to also seduce her husband, look at how she¡¯s dressed, her blouse is exposed at the top, showing off her cleavage, not to talk of the amount of make up, she wearing, her skirt isn¡¯t even something to write home about. This is the first time, she¡¯sing here, since Laura¡¯s vacation, so she¡¯s just meeting this new secretary, and how dare her talk to her like that. ¡°Ma¡¯am, please make your way out..¡± the secretary said politely yet again, but Adia could clearly hear the tone of mockery in her voice. ¡°Who¡¯s she?¡± Adia asked Sebastian, ¡°Ask her yourself..¡± came Sebastian¡¯s reply, to the secretary dismay, this man hardly talk to people, not to talk of her, his new secretary, it was actually a great opportunity to work as his secretary, she has tried all her best to get close to him, all to no avail, he doesn¡¯t even blink an eye at her. ¡°Who are you?¡± Adia asked the secretary, ¡°Bel¡­be¡­Be..¡± she stuttered, ¡°I don¡¯t like her,¡± Adia said out of no where. ¡°Look at how she¡¯s dressed, she¡¯s obviously here to seduce you, her cleavages are out,¡± Adiained, staring dangerously at the so called Be. Who does she think she is?, Thankfully Sebastian is not the type to fall for these kind of things, she thought. ¡® who told you so?¡¯ A voice said in her head. ¡® no man would be able to resist this ¡® it added. ¡°But Sebastian¡¯s not just any man, he¡¯s an epitome of self control, he wouldn¡¯t stoop so low to fall for her, and sleep with her right?¡± Adia reasoned, ¡® says who, don¡¯t forget he¡¯s been chaste for months now, and slight mistake, can make him lose it, and don¡¯t forget that he¡¯s a vampire, vampires have great sex appeal ¡® the same voice sounded, ¡°I see¡± Adia muttered, nodding momentarily, Sebastian can just decide to start seeing women, not to forget he has been with tons of women in the past, beginning from where he stopped wouldn¡¯t be a problem for him, and he can¡¯t start with the slut he calls a secretary. ¡°You¡¯re fired..¡± Adia announced as Be froze. ¡°I don¡¯t get, who are you..¡± ¡°I¡¯m his wife, and as you can see, I¡¯m expecting our baby, I don¡¯t want leeches like you around my husband, so leave¡­¡± Adia stated, ¡°But ma¡¯am..¡± Be stammered, not knowing where to begin, who would have thought, her boss had a wife. ¡°Are you a vampire?¡± Adia asked Be, who stood confused¡­. ¡°Vam¡­pi.. re..¡± she stuttered, in utter confusion. ¡°Oh this one is human¡± she remarked, ¡°Compel her to forget everything, and then leave this ce..¡± she yawned walking out of them. ¡°Compe¡­¡± Be stopped speaking, when Sebastian suddenly held her hands, looking at her straight in the eyes. ¡°Si.. r¡± Be mumbled, this is the first time she¡¯s seeing her boss¡¯s face up close, damn he¡¯s so good looking. ¡°Forget everything you¡¯ve seen and heard today, pick up your bag and go home, you had to go home because you were feeling sick¡± hepelled Be, who just stared at him hypnotized as he walked away from her. 124 ¡°Adia what the hell was that?¡± Sebastian¡¯s voice thundered as he locked the door behind him, with a loud bang. ¡°What was what for?¡± Adia questioned innocently, swirling the chair she was sitting in around. ¡°What you just did, and don¡¯t you dare feign innocence..¡± he yelled at her. ¡°What?¡± ¡°I just asked a harmless question, nothing else, nothing more..¡± ¡°A harmless question..¡± Sebastian repeated with a sneer. ¡°Yes of course..¡± ¡°Don¡¯t you know you¡¯re not meant to talk about the existence of vampires to humans?¡± He Asked her angrily, ¡°I know, but youpelled her afterwards, so there¡¯s nothing to make a fuss about, you handled it just fine¡± she said as a matter of factly, ¡°And what did you expect me to do, ?¡± She began, ¡°Look at the way she was dressed, did you seriously expect to walk past that?¡± She scoffed, cing her hands on the table.All content is ? N0velDrama.Org. ¡°Look Sebastian, she was trying to seduce you, I don¡¯t want a situation where you¡¯ll start seeing your secretary, so I just asked if she was a vampire, because you vampires are sly creatures, she can begin with little advances, then boom, you guys will take it to the next level, I just did what had to be done¡± she shrugged her shoulders innocently, ¡°You really think lowly of me don¡¯t you?¡± Sebastian asked in a low voice. ¡°Obviously..¡± she replied, ¡°You have not been seeing women for God knows how long, just a little sight of something you¡¯re nor meant to see can spark up a reaction in you, so don¡¯t me me¡± she exined, ¡°What¡¯s the use of looking outside when I have one already prepared in front of me, ready to be devoured?¡± His lips curved up, as Adia gulped loudly, why is he staring at her that way, and he¡¯s seriously walking towards her? Did she say something she was not supposed to say? ¡°I¡­I¡­¡± Adia¡¯s throat suddenly went dry, as he stopped just in front of her. ¡°You what?¡± He asked, turning the chair, now that Adia hase face to face with him. ¡°You¡­¡± Adia voice trailed off, as he leaned towards her. ¡°I might have lots of ws, but trust me, I¡¯m not a man that cheats, I stick to just one woman..¡± he confessed, he has never taken cheating as a necessity. ¡°Lies..¡± Adia breathed out. ¡°You know that¡¯s a lie, if not so, howe you have so many Ex girlfriends, always ready to pounce on you, if given the opportunity?¡± Safe asked in a low tone. Actually, she was very jealous a while about when she saw Be, that¡¯s why different negative thoughts ran through her head, because she was so scared of losing Sebastian, scared of losing him to another woman, he is meant for her and her alone, now she is in his life, she never wants him to look at another woman, but just her. ¡°That¡¯s because I never had a special affection for them..¡± he confessed, being with Adia is totally different from being with other women, she fills his heart with so much warmth, that he never wants to hurt her, but always find himself hurting her one way or the other, he just wants to cherish her and make her his, only his, the same way he will be just for her and her alone. ¡°So you have a special affection for me?¡± Adia questioned, staring deep into his eyes, their faces were so close to each other now, that they were almost sharing one breath, Sebastian hesitated as he held her face for long before he finally spoke, ¡°No..¡± ¡°Can you just be honest for once Sebastian Moreau..¡± he¡¯s never truthful to her, ¡°I¡¯m being honest..¡± he denied, he has a special affection for her, and it seems to be growing deeper everyday, that he¡¯s getting scared of losing her. ¡± You¡¯re lying Sebastian, I can see it in your eyes..¡± she voiced out, sping her arms around his neck all of a sudden. ¡°You¡¯re a big bad liar..¡± she muttered, capturing his lips. ¡°Adia..¡± Sebastian called softly, breaking off from the kiss. ¡°We can¡¯t do this, ever..¡± he said, moving away from her. ¡°Why?¡±, Adia ws beyond tired of Sebastian¡¯s actions, this moment he¡¯s all kind and loving and the next he¡¯s as cold as ice saying mean things to her, what does he seriously want?, She pondered. ¡°Because we can¡¯t..¡± re replied I¡¯m a curt tone. ¡°Why?, Is it because I¡¯m pregnant?, If that¡¯s the case let¡¯s¡­¡± Adia voice trailed off realizing, she¡¯s acting desperate, she¡¯s supposed to be angry at him, not beg him to be intimate with her, what was she even thinking?. ¡°Just get lost..¡± she waved him off, feeling her head ache. ¡°Look Adia..¡± Sebastian began not moving an inch. ¡°Your pregnancy can never stop me from doing the things I want with you¡± he deadpanned, making Adia gulp loudly, her face fanning red. ¡°The thing is, there are lots of things to be avoided, one of which is, if I start anything with you now, I¡¯ll never be able to stop or get enough, ¡± he voiced sounded in her ears, seductively, sending chills down her spine. ¡°I¡¯ll fuck you every passing second, without stopping, we¡¯ll do it everywhere and anywhere , as you scream out my name in pleasure, I¡¯ll do dirty things to you, dirty things Adia ¡± he emphasized deeply, not removing his gaze from hers. ¡°And trust me, you¡¯d never want to see that part of me¡± he added, ¡°Have a good day..¡± he wished walking out of the office. ¡°Oh jeez ¡± Adia eximed loudly, immediately he was out of sight, what was all that for? She screamed in her mind. ¡°Adia you messed up big time, why would you kiss him¡± she muttered to herself, hitting her head repeatedly, why did she even think of such, she¡¯s supposed to act angry, and make him beg, her, not her doing vice versa, ¡°Fuck you Sebastian..¡± she cursed, biting her lips, all the words he said to her, resurfacing in her mind, as she gave out a loud scream. ¡°Haaaaa!!¡± She¡¯s so embarrassed of herself. 125 Adia¡¯s eyes opened wide as saucers, as her eyes scanned the dark room, she was sure she heard a noise, she held her duvet tight, trying to put her dear behind her, maybe it¡¯s just her imaginations, no one cane in her. She was about to close her eyes when she heard another noise, this time a bit louder, it was the sound of window shutters, as if someone was trying to break into her room. ¡°Who¡¯s there?¡± She asked, getting up from the bed, switching on the headmp by the side of her bed, she reached out for the remote control, lying by the bedside, pushing a button all the lights I¡¯m the room came on. ¡°Who¡¯s..¡± her voice faded off, when she noticed a fading silhouette, now she¡¯s really scared, what does she do now, she¡¯ll have to scream for help.

Adia climbed down the stairs alongside Sebastian, as their maids trolled their baggage behind them; they¡¯re currently embarking on a trip to britaris. ¡°Good morning sister inw¡­¡± Ace waved at Adia immediately she finished climbing down the stairs. ¡°Good morning..¡± Adia replied, shing a smile at him. ¡°Good morning Adia..¡± Monica muttered from a few meters away from them. ¡°Monica..¡± Adia called softly, walking up to her. ¡°I was so heartbroken when I heard you were traveling to britaris..¡± Monica broke out, immediately Adia got to where she was. ¡°I was worried that I was not going to see you, before you leave..

She felt like puking out her whole intestine, she didn¡¯t enjoy her trip one bit, as she felt nostalgic most of the time, and couldn¡¯t wait to throw up, she never got the chance to take a look at britaris, now they¡¯ve finally arrived at Sebastian¡¯s parents house. Two things really made her nervous, one was meeting Sebastian¡¯s mother, like she¡¯s meeting her mother-inw for the very first time, and doesn¡¯t even know how to make a good impression, instead of her doing so, she¡¯s puking here, who seriously does that? Second was living amongst vampires, she¡¯s a human, and this ce is stark full of blood suckers, how would she adapt to them, or would they adapt to having a human live among them. ¡°Have some water..¡± Sebastian offered to give her a can of water as he pats her back slowly. Adia rinsed her mouth with the water, feeling refreshed finally, she¡¯s never going to fly in a helicopter, ever again. ¡°Are we good now?¡± Sebastian asked her as she nodded slowly, feeling a little better, though she felt kind of dizzy, but she was good. ¡°Thene on, the rest are waiting..¡± he held her, leading her to where the others were. Adia now took her time to survey her surroundings, Britaris is God damned beautiful, she expected it to be old, but the little she¡¯s seeing now is far from old. A gargantuan house stood on top of a mountain, no she was on top of a mountain, that¡¯s where the fuckingnded, from where she stood, she could see other tall buildings miles away, and she could literally see the whole of britaris from where she was, and it¡¯s beautiful. ¡°Only the elders of britaris, live in these types of houses..¡± Sebastian confirmed her curiosity, as she finally got it, no wonder only a few of these tall houses on top of mountains were visible to her. She looked above her, and saw that a series of maids were already rushing out to wee the newly arrived guests, as they took their baggage from them. She saw a smartly dressed woman, smiling radiantly, as she approached the entrance of the house. She looked so beautiful, kind and nice with her warm smile. ¡°Wee, wee¡­¡± she smiled with happiness written on her face, as she held out her hand for an embrace. ¡°Oh my children, are so grown up now..¡± she said as Adia froze, so that¡¯s Sebastian¡¯s mother, she¡¯s so young, how.. ¡°Vampires Don¡¯t age at a certain point, remember..¡± he reminded Adia, he surely has lots of things to exin to her. ¡°Sebastian, my dear.. it feels like forever..¡± She uttered, reaching out for Sebastian with tear-filled eyes, making way to hug him, but Sebastian didn¡¯t reciprocate the hug, nor did he look happy to see her. ¡°You never change..¡± she muttered, turning to Adia, who gulped nervously, what if she doesn¡¯t like her?, Adia thought. ¡°And you must be my daughter-inw..¡± ¡°Oh silly me, you are..¡± she chuckled, her eyes traveling to Adia¡¯s baby bump. ¡°How are you dear, finally I get to see the woman who has captured Sebastian¡¯s eyes..¡± she grinned hugging Adia tight. ¡°Good day ma¡¯am..¡± Adia greeted softly, ¡°Ma¡¯am!!¡± She eximed, ¡°Feel free to call me mother, hmm¡± she stayed, caressing Adia¡¯s cheek lovingly. ¡°So the rumors are true..¡± she remarked, taking a good look at Adia¡¯s face. ¡°How was your trip my dear?¡± She questioned, not wanting to make things awkward. ¡°Tiring, I guess..¡± Adia replied, exhaustion written all over her face.Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. ¡°I can see that, you look tired..¡± she said patting Adia¡¯s shoulders. ¡°We really have a lot to catch up on..¡± ¡°Can¡¯t you see she¡¯s tired, we had a long journey, you can talk to herter¡± Sebastian chimed in. ¡°You can never change,¡± Celeste smiled, tapping Adia¡¯s shoulders. ¡°Go in dear..¡± she gestured, making way for Sebastian and Adia to go inside. ¡°And who do we have here?¡± Celeste eximed as Arion came into view next, ¡°Not now Celeste..¡± Arion yawnedzily. ¡°As grumpy as ever..¡± Celeste jested ruffling Arion¡¯s hair. ¡°You can go in..¡± she made way for Arion to pass, she knew there was no need talking to this one, he¡¯s a cold stone. ¡°My baby..¡± she eximed happily, hugging Ace instantly. ¡°Look at you all grown up¡± she remarked, taking a good look at Ace, though the other two were always cold, this one was always there to light up the mood. ¡°Come on mom, I¡¯ve not changed..¡± he chuckled, ¡°Look at you, I miss you my dear¡­¡± ¡°I miss you too, you look more beautiful now, what have you been having, tell me, what¡¯s the secret?¡± He whispered yfully to Celeste¡¯s ears. ¡°Don¡¯t tter me, I look just the same..¡± she grinned, ¡°And who¡¯s she your girlfriend?¡±Celeste asked, pointing at Monica who stood a few meters away from Ace. ¡°She¡¯s beautiful, Ace¡­¡± she admired, staring lovingly at a speechless Monica, when did she be Ace¡¯s girlfriend, and why isn¡¯t the idiot saying anything to deny her im. ¡°I¡¯m so happy for you my dear, your girlfriend is very pretty, now only Arion is left, I hope he brings a woman soon, ¡± she prayed, hoping that the heavens hears her prayers this time, she has no idea, what¡¯s wrong with Arion, he¡¯s the strangest of them all. ¡°What¡¯s your name?¡± She questioned Monica, who kept ncing side by side in confusion. ¡°It¡¯s Monica, mother..¡± Ace chimed in , giving Monica no chance to reply to Celeste. ¡°I¡¯m not..¡± Monica began, ¡°We have to go in now, the trip was quite an exhausting one,e on..¡± Ace tugged Monica¡¯s shoulders, dragging her inside giving her no chance to protest. 128 ¡°What was that for?¡± Monica asked angrily removing Ace¡¯s hands that was wrapped around her, ¡°What was what for?¡± Ace questioned looking unbothered. ¡°That..¡± she pointed angrily. ¡°You told your mother that we¡¯re dating, while we¡¯re not,¡± she yelled angrily. ¡°First of all I don¡¯t think you should be raising your voice on me..¡± he began in a low, dangerous tone. ¡°Secondly that¡¯s not a big deal..¡± he voiced out. ¡°That¡¯s not a big deal¡± she repeated mumbling under her breath, ¡°Hmm, hmm, you have to start living with that for now, my fake girlfriend..¡± he said in a domineering tone. ¡°For what?¡± Monica questioned, why does it have to be her, ¡°You saw how happy my mother was a few minutes ago..¡± he began walking close to her, ¡°I¡¯m also sure you saw the smile on her face, it should remain that way, so don¡¯t try anything stupid..¡± he warned sternly, if the was one person Ace loved those in the world, it was his mother, amongst all his brothers he was the closest to Celeste, and would never do anything to hurt her. ¡°If you know you didn¡¯t want to hurt her, you could havee prepared for this, there are lots of women ready to jump into this opportunity, the best thing was for you to employ one to act as your girlfriend, not pronounce me one.¡± She concluded scornfully, she had only two main reasons foring here, one was to see her mother who she missed so much, her mother Samantha works as a maid in britaris, giving this is the only chance toe here she grabbed that opportunity, the second was to be there for Adia. ¡°Trust me, I totally forgot about that,¡± he confessed, ¡°There¡¯s no big deal in this, just give her the right impression and make her happy,¡± he told her. ¡°And what if I don¡¯t want to do it..¡± she challenged him, trying to be bold. ¡°You don¡¯t want to dare me..¡± he growled. I¡¯m a low dangerous tone, sending chills down Monica¡¯s spine. One thing she hase to find out about Ace is that he can be friendly and very deadly at the same time. ¡°Ever, don¡¯t try me Monica¡­¡± came his low intimidating voice, as Monica gulped loudly in fear. ¡°And how sure are you that she will fall for this, I mean the truth wille out one day, besides there is lots of proof that we¡¯re not dating, what if your mother finds out about that?¡± She asked, referring to the people that came with. ¡°It¡¯s none of Arion¡¯s business, same with Sebastian, they don¡¯t care, really, that wouldn¡¯t even give a damn..¡± ¡°And if you¡¯re thinking about Adia, I can always talk to her, at least she¡¯s mature and would understand me..¡± he states, smacking his lips, as Monica red at him, he indirectly calling her stupid. ¡°The rest of the employees won¡¯t care less also, do everything is up to you, take care of everything¡± he said, ¡°It¡¯s just for a short period of time, hmm¡± he informed, once they¡¯re able to prove Logan¡¯s innocence, which they¡¯re already working on, they¡¯ll live this ce, besides being in britaris only bring back those memories that Sebastian never wants to remember, so he¡¯s sure Sebastian would send a very short time here, and get done with things as soon as possible. ¡°It¡¯s not as if anything is going to happen between us, avoid me as much as you can, hmm, we¡¯re total strangers..¡± he listed out to her ¡°So be a good girl and make no mistakes.¡±he concluded, patting her shoulders before walking out of her. Monica stood dumbfounded watching his fading silhouette, as he left, how does he expect her to be his fake girlfriend, is he seriously right upstairs, grunting loudly she looked around the building, trying to catch sight of herother, the person she really needs to meet the most. .. .. .. Sebastian leaped to the top of the rooftop, where Arion was already waiting for him. ¡°You sent for me¡± he said,nding beside Arion, as he took a good look at britaris from where he stood, this ce holds so many memories, he really never supported the idea ofing here. ¡°Yes..¡± Arion replied, puffing out smoke from his mouth. ¡°Do you care for?¡± He offered Sebastian a cigarette and a lighter which he epted, as he lot the cigarette on. ¡°So what¡¯s the problem?¡± Sebastian questioned taking a smoke. ¡°I¡¯ll be going on a trip¡± Arion announced, ¡°To where?¡± ¡°Orleans..¡± came Arion¡¯s short reply as Sebastian turned his gaze to meet his brother¡¯s. ¡°What are you doing in Orleans..?¡± He asked curiously. ¡°I¡¯ve been making some researches over the months trying to find a witch, and I finally did..¡± he announced, gaining Sebastian full attention, Mickelson had been the one helping Arion on this research to find a witch, that¡¯s the sole reason Arion really wanted Mickelson out from where he was locked up. ¡°You found a witch!!!¡± Sebastian eximed, both shock and anticipation swallowing him whole. ¡°Not really though, I just discovered that magic was practiced in that area, so there¡¯s a chance a witch resides there..¡± he exined as Sebastian¡¯s jaw worked. ¡°How do you intend on finding one?, we aren¡¯t even sure if¡­¡± ¡°No negativity brother..¡± Arion interrupted his brother. ¡°There is no harm in trying, and we have to save Adia, even if it means tearing the whole of Orleans down..¡± Arion remarked confidently. ¡°Do you think La Fey¡¯s sisters are still alive?¡± Sebastian asked, ¡°I¡¯m not sure, but I¡¯m certain a witch still exists, which can only be one of the La Fey¡¯s right?¡± Arion reasoned, ¡°Moreau had long given up on finding them..¡± ¡°I know, but we can¡¯t give up right, besides I had another vision, same with Ace..¡± Arion voiced out, the gift of seeing has always been part of him and his brother Ace, because they were twins. ¡°What did you see this time around?¡± ¡°I¡¯m not sure, whatever we saw was vague, it wasn¡¯t clear, but all I¡¯m sure of is that what we¡¯re seeking lies in Orleans..¡± he spoke, just when he had this vision, Mickelson came with the news that magic was spotted in Orleans, that¡¯s why he¡¯s confident that their answer might be there. ¡°Thanks brother, I owe you one..¡± ¡°Anytime..¡±This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org. ¡°Arhh..¡± Sebastian signed deeply, ¡°Britaris has changed a lot..¡± hemented, taking a look at the city. ¡°I know right¡± 129 Adia¡¯s eyes fluttered open, as she took a good look at her surroundings, she has been so tired when they arrive and the only thing on her mind was rest, getting up from the bed, she realized that her and Sebastian would be sharing a room together as a married couple, she blushed at the idea, speaking of Sebastian she hasn¡¯t seen him at all, maybe he had to run off somewhere, she thought loudly. She looked around the room which only reeked of one thing ¡® Sebastian ¡®, it was a very big bedroom, with designs that suit a royalty, but most of the colors in here were gray and ck, colors that describe Sebastian¡¯s personality. Just as she was thinking about him, the door sprang open, as Sebastian walked in. ¡°You¡¯re awake¡­¡± he remarked, stopping a few meters away from her, the news he just heard a moment ago, Is one of the best so far, that they have a chance at saving Adia, there¡¯s a thin line of hope for them now. ¡°Hmm, hmm..¡± she yawned, standing up straight. ¡± Go freshen up, I¡¯ll tell the maids to bring your breakfast here..¡± he informed sitting on the bed as Adia nodded slowly. Then living in the same room felt so awkward, yees they¡¯ve shared a bed before, but this was different, how¡¯s she going to cope, when she bathes, dresses up and stuff, Sebastian will be everywhere around her, which is making her so nervous. ¡°My bags?¡± She questioned in a croaked voice, the only n she has now is to bathe and dress up in the bathroom, so she has to take her clothes with her to the bathroom. ¡°Your clothes have been arranged in the closet, you¡¯ll find a towel in the bathroom..¡± he replied, ¡°Ok.* Adia mumbled dashing to the closet, it was alreadyte in the evening, so she picked up her pajamas, before going into the bathroom. .. .. .. ¡°Oh Jesus!!¡± Adia eximed, her eyes wide as saucers, the moment she walked out of the bathroom, the sight before her was¡­. it¡¯s not as if she has not seen him half naked Sebastian before, but this time, she felt strangely different, and highly nervous. ¡°What is it?¡± Sebastian¡¯s lips curved up, turning to face Adia who looked shocked, she was already dressed in her pajamas, and the only evidence that she just finished bathing was the water dripping from her hair. ¡°Oh nothing..¡± Adia chuckled sheepishly, trying to regain herposure. ¡°Calm down Adia, you¡¯ve seen this before, there¡¯s nothing new here..¡± she mumbled, taking in deep breaths, he just looked more handsome and hot now in her eyes, how can a man be so sexy and God like, she thought hard biting her lips. ¡°Come here..¡± he beckoned towards her . ¡°Come where?¡± Adia muttered, ¡°Here..¡± he pointed at where he was standing as Adia¡¯s eyes grew wide, not wanting to waste any time with her, he walked up to where he held her hands. ¡°Your hair¡¯s wet, you can catch a cold, let¡¯s dry you up ¡± he said, dragging her to the dressing table, as he made her sit down, all Adia could do was burp loudly. why is she feeling so nervous right now?, She wondered. Sebastian reached for a drawer, as he brought out a hair dryer from there, which he used in drying Adia¡¯s hair. As she sat quietly, he did it so skillfully, as if he was an expert in that aspect. ¡°Have you been doing this before?¡± Adia couldn¡¯t help but voiced out her curiosity. ¡°No¡± came his honest reply, ¡°Why do you ask?¡± He asked her this time. ¡°Because you¡¯re so good at it, why else? You¡¯re doing this as if it¡¯s your job, which made me wonder how many women¡¯s hair you must have dried..¡± she replied, as Sebastian¡¯s lips pulled up into a thin line. ¡°Just so you know I¡¯m good at many things, and you¡¯re the first woman, whose hair I¡¯ve dried,¡± he stated, ¡°I¡¯m your wife, I¡¯m exceptional from other women¡± she shrugged her shoulders, he¡¯s actually obliged to be drying her hair everyday. ¡°Make sure you always keep yourself warm..¡± he advised, ¡°Britaris is a very cold ce, and might not be suitable for a human like you, not to talk of the vulnerable state you are in¡­¡± he told her, ¡°I¡¯ve already ordered the maids to always keep the house warm, just make sure you¡¯re protected when leaving the four corners of this ce..¡± he added, vampires are cold blooded, so it¡¯s natural for the ce they reside to be very cold. ¡°Ok,¡± Adia nodded, thankfully she packed a lot of sweaters. ¡°Why about Logan?¡± She asked about the main reason they came here I¡¯m the first ce. ¡°What about him?¡± Sebastian¡¯s brows furrowed, howe she¡¯s asking after another man in the middle of their conversation?, The jealous spirit in him pondered, ¡°I¡¯m just asking how he¡¯s faring and if you¡¯ve made any positive moves to help him..¡± ¡°He has been locked up by the elders, I tried all I could to get him released, but it seems the elders are firm in their decisions, the only next option was to ask Celeste for help¡± he uttered as if that was a very hard thing for him to do, it was totally against his wish to ask his mother for help, seeing she could be of help as an elder also, but he had to do that because of Adia, she¡¯ll just keep on pestering him. ¡°She has managed to stall his execution..¡± he announced, ¡°How did she manage to do that?¡± She asked, ¡°I gave her some proof against Kate, like when she tried to kill you and abort the pregnancy¡± he replied, ¡°So Kate is also a viin here, and all Logan did was protect a life, they¡¯re going to investigate more on that and hopefully Logan will be safe¡­¡± ¡°How long is he going to be kept there?¡± Adia asked worriedly. ¡°Thirty days..¡± came his curt reply, ¡°Oh poor Logan, I wondered how he¡¯s faring being locked up in there..¡± she whimpered sadly, ¡°Stop worrying about him, darn it¡± Sebastian smacked his lips distastefully dropping the hair dryer on the table. ¡°I don¡¯t just want anyone to die because of me..¡± she uttered,This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org. ¡°No one¡¯s dying, trust me on this¡± he said to her assuringly patting her shoulders. ¡°Give me a shoulder massage..¡± Adia requested yfully as she chuckled. ¡°Alright..¡± Sebastian epted without hesitating, as he ced his other hand on her shoulders, Adia cared less about what he must have swallowed here, but was okay as long as he was sweet to her. 130 Monica signed deeply as she walked into Ace¡¯s room in frustration, mming the door behind her. ¡°You¡¯ve got to be kidding me¡± he remarked stepping out from the bathroom. ¡°What¡¯s up with all the attitudes babe, you¡¯ve got to loosen up a bit babe..¡± he clicked his tongue, throwing himself on the bed. ¡°How can I loosen up, when you¡¯re forcing me to do something which is clearly against my wish¡± she grunted angrily, how is she going to live like this? She¡¯s a maid for crying out loud. ¡°It¡¯s a privilege babe, feel free..¡± he stated, ¡°It¡¯s not as if anything is going to happen between us, just go on with your normal life, ¡± he informed, ¡°Where do I sleep?¡± She questioned looking round the room, if Ace is already settled on the bed, where will she sleep, cause she will never share a bed with him. ¡°You can take the sofa¡­¡± he replied, as Monica red at him scoffing in disbelief. ¡°So I¡¯m going to be ufortable when you¡¯re the one who dragged me into this, excuse me Mr Ace Moreau, I¡¯m fine being a maid, at least I can sleepfortably, alone, in my own bed, not this..¡± she expressed in sarcasm.Content bel0ngs to N?vel(D)r/a/ma.Org. ¡°Then what do you suggest?¡± ¡°We share a bed..¡± ¡°Feel free to join me, I¡¯m not objecting to that¡± he invited her, creating space for her on the bed. ¡°Go to hell¡­¡± she cursed, walking away in anger, as she stomped her feet on the ground till she got into the bathroom, mming the door. .. .. .. ¡°Good morning mother..¡±Adia smiled engulfing Celeste in a tight hug, she¡¯s still so shocked on how the woman is looking so young, no one will believe that she¡¯s Sebastian¡¯s mother, speaking of, she has not seen his father in sight, but dared not ask, not wanting to cause any problems. ¡°How are you my dear?¡± Celeste asked smiling widely, ¡°I¡¯m fine, and you, I know you¡¯re fine, you¡¯re looking so pretty¡± Adia praised as Celeste blushed, ¡°Spare me that..¡± she chuckled, ¡°Have you had breakfast?¡± She asked Adia. ¡°Yes I had some in my room¡± Adia replied, sitting down for breakfast was not a tradition in this house, they¡¯re all vampires and barely feeding human food, she¡¯s very sure the maids were not making food until she came here. ¡°Hope you enjoyed it, the maids had a hard time trying to make it, I made sure they put in their best..¡± she stated, ¡°Yes of course, trust me, it was good..¡± she replied, ¡°That¡¯s great to hear..¡± Feel free to do whatever you want, hmm, non ones going to hurt you..¡± she informed Incase Adia was scared of living with vampires. ¡°Sure, are you going out?¡± She asked to see that Celeste was dressed. ¡°Yes, ¡± she replied, ¡°I¡¯m meeting up with a friend..¡± she added, ¡°Do you mind if Ie along?, It¡¯s kind of boring here..¡± she pouted, ¡°Sure, my pleasure..¡± ¡°Great,¡± Adia eximed happily, ¡°Alright then,e on and bring a coat with you, it¡¯s cold here..¡± Celeste informed Adia rushed off to her room. .. .. .. ¡°Good gracious..¡± Adia eximed admiring the beautiful sight in front of her. ¡°I must confess, britaris is a very beautiful ce..¡± she wowed, admiring all the tall buildings. ¡°You can say that again..¡± Celeste chuckled, ¡°Wow..¡± Adia just couldn¡¯t stop admiring the beauty of this ce, when he heard of britaris, she thought it would be some old ancient, but this ce is far from ancient. ¡°I¡¯ll take you to the market,ter, you can get lots of amazing stuff..¡± she offered, ¡°Thanks so much mother,¡± Adia grinned. ¡°Come to think of it..¡± Celeste began, ¡°Where are you from?¡± She asked, chuckling. ¡°I don¡¯t mean to pry though, I¡¯m just curious that¡¯s all¡± she stated, ¡°Who are your parents?, And how did you and Sebastian meet?¡± She queried as Adia shifted ufortably. ¡°I¡¯m sorry if I make you ufortable..¡± Celeste quickly added, noticing her difort. ¡°No no no, it¡¯s not that, it¡¯s just that my parents are dead, abd Sebastian and I met in the most hical way ever, but what can I say?, It just happened ¡± she replied, ¡°I see, I¡¯m so sorry about your parents..¡± Celeste apologized, ¡°It¡¯s nothing, ¡± Adia waved her off, she hade to live with that. ¡°I¡¯m sure you¡¯ve been with Sebastian long enough to know that you look just like Aisling..¡± she voiced out, ¡°For a split second I actually thought you were her,¡± she confessed, but she knew Adia was not her, they were some difference between them, the only thing they both mostly had inmon was the face, the eyes colors were totally different. ¡°I¡¯m not trying toplicate things, I¡¯m just happy you¡¯re in Sebastian¡¯s life..¡± she uttered softly. ¡°My son has changed a lot..¡± she stated, the Sebastian of Before wouldn¡¯t even bother to spare her a nce they were so distant with each other. ¡°Aisling was his light, and when she died, that light left with her, and Sebastian became a total darkness, he became bitter, ruthless, he killed people Adia, lots and lots of people, he spilled blood here in britaris, he became feral, ming everyone for the death of Aisling, I couldn¡¯t even talk to him, then the elders had no choice but to send him on exile to the human world, knowing he can¡¯t kill anyone there¡± Celeste exined, a vampire can¡¯t kill a human for no reason, there might be consequences, that¡¯s why the elders sent him there, and it seems as if they made a good decision. ¡°I feel so bad for you Adia..¡± she choked out. ¡°And I¡¯m scared for the future,¡± she said bitterly. ¡°If you do¡­¡± she stopped speaking looking deep in Adia¡¯s eyes. ¡°I think I¡¯m speaking too much..¡± she chuckled sheepishly holding Adia¡¯s hands. ¡°Let¡¯s go, we¡¯ll be going to the market now, you can find lots of amazing things there¡± she said, dragging Adia away, who just followed along. The truth was that Celeste was scared, she was scared of what might happen if Adia dies. It¡¯s so clear Sebastian loves her, he¡¯ll out bring doom to the world if she dies, and she is totally scared for that to happen, nobody can stop Sebastian once he goes berserk. 131 Adia walked into her room which was dimly lit, she returned he after having a good time with Celeste today and was fucking exhausted. ¡°Sebastian..¡± she called softly, recalling she has not seen him since this morning, and also left without informing him. ¡°Seb..¡± she called again, looking around the dark room, she¡¯s new here and everything around her if foreign, how does she locate the lights switch?, She thought smacking her lips trying to find her way around. ¡°F*ck¡± she cursed loudly whimpering in pain, as she bent down to hold her big toe, which was throbbing in pain, she just hit her leg on the front legs of the bed. ¡°Seb!!¡± She yelled at the top of her voice, whimpering in pain, as she managed to sit on the bed, holding her big toe which was hurting as hell. ¡°Seb..¡±she cried, feeling a wet substance on her hand, that¡¯s when she realized she was bleeding. ¡°Oh God, where¡¯s this idiot..¡± she gritted her teeth in pain, realization hitting her hard, this house is stark full of vampires, who feed on blood, and are highly sensitive, they may alle for her, she was sure that¡¯s it not all that could control themselves at the sight of blood. ¡°Sebastian..¡± she called getting up on her feet, ¡°Who¡¯s there?¡± She asked, noticing someone¡¯s movements around the room. ¡°Oh God, Sebastian!!!!* She yelled, probably one blood sucker had caught the smell of her blood and was here for her. ¡°Arrh!!¡± She screamed in fright, feeling cold hands on her, she felt her heart jump out from her chest, the person was clearly not Sebastian or anyone close to her, it was probably a servant who caught the smell of her blood and lost self control. ¡°Let me go..¡± she begged, knowing she was no match for whoever it was, the fact the room was dark was not even helping matters. The person holding her, growled loudly, pulling get swiftly as she felt straight to the ground, before her mind could register anything else, she felt something wet on her injured toe, possibly sucking her blood, resulting in a very loud ear piercing shout from her, the vampire is sucking her blood, feeding on her. ¡°Haaa!!!!!¡± A loud agonizing shout was heard as Adia threw her hands in the air, struggling to set free, all to no avail, then all of a sudden, the person let go, as silence reigned in the room, neither was the person moving or making any attempts to catch her. Taking in heavy breaths, she used that as an opportunity to run for her life, as she scrambled her way through the floor searching for the door. She was still fumbling through weakly, when the door sprang open, someone fizzled past her, as the lights suddenly came on, Adia breathlessly rested her back on the wall behind her, trying to catch her breaths, she felt someone hold her shoulders, as she yelped out in fright, her eyes stuttered open, to see Sebastian¡¯s worried face, staring worriedly at her.Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. ¡°You¡¯re here..¡± she gasped out, still breathing hard, her head fell weakly on Sebastian¡¯s chest, ¡°Are you okay?¡± He whispered in her ears softly, worried in his voice. ¡°Of co.. urs.. e n.. ot¡± she stuttered, ¡°I almost got sucked dry by a vampire..¡± she said, lifting her head from his chest, as she looked up, to meet the worried faces of Monica and Celeste, and the supposed vampire on the floor, unmoving. ¡°He tried to..¡± she stammered, pointing at the vampire on the floor, as Sebastian threw his gaze to where the vampireid. ¡± What happened to him?¡± He asked, ¡°I don¡¯t know, I was attacked..¡± she replied, ¡°I supposedly came in here, and the room was dark, I tried finding the switch and I¡¯m the process I obtained an injury, then all of a sudden, someone grabbed me, before I knew it, he had already grabbed my toe, feeding on me..¡± she scrunched her face, remembering his mouth on her leg. ¡°Then¡­¡± ¡°Then he released me all of a sudden, that¡¯s when you came in..¡± she replied ¡°Where were you, I fucking screamed for help, but you never came, this bastard could have killed me..¡± she says horrified at what just happened. Celeste moved to Adia, cing her hand on her neck, ¡°Thankfully he didn¡¯t feed much from you..¡± she stated, holding Adia in her arms, as Sebastian moved to the vampire on the ground. ¡°He¡¯s dead..¡± he announced checking his pulse, ¡°And he¡¯s slowly desating..¡± he added, ¡°How is that possible? Did you touch him?¡± Celeste questioned while Monica picked up Adia from the ground. ¡°We arrived here at the same time..¡± ¡°Then..¡± Celeste¡¯s voice trailed off, realization hitting her hard. ¡°Did..¡± ¡°Yes, he¡¯s clearly dead because he consumed Adia¡¯s blood, and look he threw up the blood he consumed¡­¡± he exined, pointing at the ck blood that was smeared on the ground. ¡°How is this even possible?¡± Celeste stammered, never having heard of this. ¡°I have no idea, but it has something to do with Adia not being able to bepelled..¡± his brows furrowed as he tried putting the broken pieces together. ¡°She can¡¯t bepelled!!¡± She eximed, ncing at Adia, ¡°How is that even possible?¡± She queried, ¡°I have no idea either, I was thinking maybe you can have an answer to this..¡± ¡°I don¡¯t, because I¡¯ve never seen a case like this, neither has any vampire..¡± she answered truthfully. ¡°We can figure that outter, now we have to take care of this mess..¡± he deadpanned, referring to the lifeless body on the ground. ¡°Make sure no wordse out about this¡± he warned, it¡¯d be best if the other vampires do not find out about this, especially the elders, not only will they see Adia as a threat, she¡¯ll also be the center of unnecessary attention. ¡°You clean this mess¡± he instructed to Monica, ¡°I¡¯ll take care of the body ¡± ¡°Adia you go with Celeste to her room, ¡± he added, ¡°Come along now¡± Celeste tugged Adia helping her up, as Adia tried registering what she heard, did she just kill a person, not to talk of a vampire. 132 ¡°Sebastian you have to listen to me..¡± Adia voiced out holding Sebastian arms stopping him from leaving, it¡¯s been two days since the incident with the vampire, and Sebastian had done well in hiding it, thankfully she did not have a trauma for it. ¡°I thought I told you never to talk about that again?¡± He wondered where she got this new obsession from. ¡°Why?, I have to say something..¡± ¡°I think there¡¯s actually a way for me to live¡­¡± she said, ¡°Adia..¡± Sebastian called, sending warnings to her, she kept talking about things he didn¡¯t want to hear, things about her death. ¡°There might actually be a chance Sebastian..¡± she voiced out, ¡°I have a slight resemnce to your first love, I can¡¯t bepelled, I don¡¯t heal from vampire blood and my blood is toxic to humans, don¡¯t you think¡­¡± ¡°Adia¡­¡± Sebastian called cutting her short. ¡°What I¡¯m trying to say is that I might be different from the other humans¡± she reasoned ignoring his warnings, ¡°Can you just shut up already¡­¡± he yelled angrily as Adia froze in fear, she has never seen him this angry, what he was exuding right now terrified her ¡°At least hear yourself, before you speak and stop being a burden to me¡­¡± he growled In anger, he tried so hard before, not to lose it, but she just keeps on annoying him, and goes on talking about the stupid idea she has, how¡¯s he going to te her that there¡¯s no hope for her unless they find a witch.Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org. ¡°I¡¯m a burden to you?¡± She questioned in disbelief, ¡°Yes Adia, a huge one at that..¡± ¡°So do me one favor, and let me be, stop talking about the damn idea you have for fuck sake..¡± he grunted punching the wall in anger. ¡°I¡¯m pregnant Sebastian, for you..¡± Adia reminded, ¡°That¡¯s the more reason you need to stay in ce and stop being a headache to others, stay in ce Adia!!¡± She blurted out as she scoffed in disbelief. ¡°How did you expect me to stay in ce when I¡¯m going to lose my life Sebastian?¡± She asked, ¡°I don¡¯t want to die..¡± she muttered, feeling a lump in her throat. ¡°I want to live with my kids, I want to live with you, I don¡¯t want to die..¡± she cried out. ¡°So how do you expect me to stay calm, tell me huh¡­.¡± She yelled at the top of her voice. ¡°Have some rest Adia, you¡¯re taking this too far¡­¡± ¡°How can I not ..¡± ¡°And she keeps on arguing¡­¡± he chimed in, angrily, ¡°Can¡¯t you just tuck yourself in bed all day and stop being a nuisance?¡± ¡°You¡¯ve already suffocated me enough with your problems, so don¡¯t add to it..¡± he stated, ¡°So they¡¯re now my problem, not yours¡­¡± ¡°Look Adia, you¡¯re not Aisling, you both having the same resemnce is just a mere coincidence, the rest are pure coincidence so just thinking too hard and quit giving me hard times¡­¡± he concluded walking out of the room mming the door behind him loudly. ¡°Bastard¡­¡± Adia cursed breaking down into tears, she actually thought there¡¯s a way out of this, and the only theory she had was what she was telling him, but he only got him angry, to be honest she has never seen Sebastian this angry before, each time she just brings up the topic about her death, he either res up or walk away then avoid her, she really wants to leave and see her children grow. ¡°Bastard¡­¡± she cursed again, dashing out of the room. .. .. .. Adia took in a deep breath inhaling the fresh smell of britaris, she managed to sessfully sneak out of the house without anyone seeing her as she really wanted to clear her head off all the recent happenings, her fight with Sebastian, as they always fight with each other. ¡°Woah!!¡± She eximed, admiring the whole ce, as she walked far away from Huntersville, she walked and walked, unaware of where she was even going as she continued her sight seeing, she didn¡¯t fail to notice the way people stared, well they¡¯re bound to stare, because a free meal was right before then, but no one dared take a step towards her and just minded their business, as all vampires have been warned before time of Adia¡¯s presence, Incase anything happened, so they did well to avoid the wife of one of the lords or they¡¯ll lose their head. ¡°I¡¯m thirsty..¡± Adia mumbled to herself, as she has been walking for quite a long time now, but how does she get water, she doesn¡¯t even have money on her. ¡°Adia, is that you?¡± Someone asked as she looked in front of her to see a beautiful woman smiling in front of her. ¡°Yes..¡± she drawled out, having not met her before. ¡°Wow, it¡¯s so good to see you¡­¡± the woman wowed, going close to Adia. ¡°But what are you doing here?¡± She asked curiously, noticing no one was following here behind. ¡°Well, I think I¡¯m lost..¡± Adia began, ¡°I left for sightseeing before, it¡¯s like I ventured too far..¡± she reasoned, looking around her. ¡°You definitely did, by the way I¡¯m Naomie, Celeste¡¯s friend..¡± she introduced softly as Adia only nodded as she hadn¡¯t met this one before, though she seemed nice. ¡°I¡¯m sure you must have met Rowan, I¡¯m his mother..¡± she added as Adia stilled, these vampires look so young and beautiful, how is a woman this young Rowan¡¯s mother. ¡°I¡¯ve heard a lot about you..¡± Naomie said, ¡°You really look just like her I must confess,e on..¡± she held Adia¡¯s hand, as they both walked hand in hand. ¡°Look like who?¡± ¡°Aisling, my daughter, I¡¯m sure you must have heard of her¡­¡± Naomie chuckled, as Adia recalled Aisling was Rowan¡¯s sister. ¡°Yes I have, and I know how great of a daughter she was¡± Adia said, regarding the way everyone talked of Aisling, she was sure she lived a wonderful life. ¡°Yes she was..¡± Naomie uttered softly. ¡°Um Naomie..¡± Adia called resorting to asked Naomie for water as she already felt safe around her, ¡°Yes dear..¡± ¡°Actually I¡¯m quite parched and was thinking of I could get some water..¡± ¡°Sure, I¡¯m taking you home, I¡¯m going to treat you, I¡¯ll be stealing you from your husband..¡± Naomie informed as they both smiled. ¡°And you should stop stressing yourself Adia, you¡¯re pregnant, you look like you¡¯ve been walking for quite some time now..¡± she remarked as Adia grinned sheepishly. ¡°Noted..¡± Adia smiled, if Naomie is Rowan¡¯s mom, then she¡¯ll definitely get to see Laura too. 133 ¡°Settle down dear, I¡¯ll tell the maids to get you water..¡± Naomie said helping Adia to pull off her coat, as the house was warmer, ¡°Thanks¡± Adia chuckled, sitting on a chair, looking round the house which was so quiet, with no soul passing by, it was built just the way Sebastian¡¯s house was, and built on top of a mountain also. ¡°Have this..¡± Naomie, offered as a maid, handed a ss of water to Adia. ¡°Thanks..¡± Adia same d gulping it down in one go, having walked for a pretty long time. ¡°You look like you enjoyed your time sight seeing..¡± ¡°Yes sure, I had a good time..¡± ¡°Why didn¡¯t Sebastiane with you?

LOVE AUTHOR BLU~VEE. 138 Adia stepped out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around her chest, and another on her hair, which she used in drying it, she looked around the small room and noticed that Sebastian was not yet back, as he left a few minutes ago, saying he had to deal with something important, actually Malcolm brought a message for him, which seemed important, so he had to leave, saying he would be back soon after. Adia took that as the perfect opportunity to bathe and dress up, they¡¯ve only spent a night here together, so she¡¯s still finding it very hard to adapt to him around, of course they lived together for almost six months now, but they¡¯ve never practically shared a room together. Adia rushed to the little closet at a corner, to grab her clothes, before her arrives. She was about to take a step forward when the door spranged open and Sebastian stepped in. ¡°Fuck..¡± Adia cursed under her breath, as their eyes met, the grey ones holding a hint of amusement and mischief in it, the hazel ones holding a shocked and surprised look. ¡°You¡¯re back..¡± Adia spluttered as he closes the door behind him, ¡°Hmm, hmm, I told you I¡¯ll only be out for a second..¡± he said fixing his gaze on her, his gaze so intense that Adia actually felt like he was stripping her with his eyes. ¡°Alright..¡± she chuckled sheepishly, feeling naked before him, if she had known, she would have dressed up in the bathroom, now she¡¯s feeling so awkward, she¡¯ll Just ask him to leave ande back soon. ¡°Ple¡­.¡± ¡°Come here, I¡¯ll help you dry your hair..¡± he offered, beating her to it, before she could even say anything, it was as if he already knew what she was going to say, and for a split second, Adia thought she heard him say he was going to go her dress up. ¡°No need..¡± Adia politely refused, but he was already standing in front of her, as he held her hand, leading her to a chair that wasid at another corner of the room with a table and small mirror in front of it. ¡°What are you doing?¡± Adia stammered, as he collected the towel from her. ¡°Drying your hair..¡± came his reply, as he dried her hair thoroughly, ¡°What did Malcolme to do?¡± She asked, she didn¡¯t want to pry, but she thought maybe a conversation will advert the naughty thoughts running through her mind now. ¡°He came to report something..¡±Content bel0ngs to N?vel(D)r/a/ma.Org. ¡°About Logan?¡± Adia took a look at herself on the mirror in front of her, she has changed a lot more than she could ever imagine, who would have thought that the cold Sebastian of Before, who had locked her indoors for a month, would stand behind her drying her hair, but that¡¯s life, it has different twists and turns that you cam never imagine. ¡°Yeah, he managed to father a little evidence..¡± he answered, as Adia inhaled deeply, ¡°I just hope Logan will be able to get out of this..¡± she hoped sincerely, ¡°Mm hmm¡± he dropped the wet towel on the table, before going back to her hair, picking up the strands, as he wrapped them together, packing her hair in a ponytail. His eyes traveled to the mirror, as he stared at her reflection, frankly she looked so beautiful, and seemed to be getting more radiant as time went on. His curious eyes then went to her bare shoulders, her milky skin exposed before him, causing him to stare lustfully at her bare shoulders, his Adams apple, bulged out, as he found a hard time trying to control his emotions, maybe bringing her here was a bad idea after all, he¡¯s a fucking vampire with emotions and a man for crying out loud, what kind of temptation is this? ¡°You..¡± Adia stopped in her tracks, as she felt a burning sensation on her corbone, only for her to realize that Sebastian was touching her there, she was about to speak, when he stopped her, ¡°Don¡¯t move..¡± his deep baritone voice rang in her ears, sending chills down her spine, his voice sounded this time in her ears, it sounded kind of raw. Sebastian ran his fingers through her corbone, he moved slowly until he got to the upper side of her neck, sending feathery touches there. He suddenly turned the chair she was sitting on, causing her to face him as Adia stared at him in shock, wondering what must have gotten into him, cause the look in his eyes kind of scared her, it seemed as if she was a pret and him a predator, ready to devour her whole. ¡°What are you?¡± She stuttered, but he only ced his index finger on her lips, stopping her from saying anything further. Sebastian always knew that Adia was a big temptation to him, that¡¯s why he always tried his best to avoid her from the start, but he seems as if he didn¡¯t do enough, as everything has gone out of control. Sebastian seemed to have lost his self control, and the only thing he wanted was to do bad and sinful things to her, to damn her, he wanted to strip her naked, before him, and so bad things to her, then he¡¯ll f*ck her brains out, till she screams out his name in ecstacy. ¡°You know you do tempt me right?¡± He asked cing his hands on the hand rest of the chair she was sitting on staring deep into her eyes. ¡°I do.. n¡¯t kno.. w..¡± Adia stammered shakily, shifting backwards, their faces were so close as they both shared a close proximity, making her so nervous, what¡¯s wrong with Sebastian?, She asked herself, maybe he has forgotten how good looking he is, she might lose it and kiss him, he better take that perfect lips of his away from her, Adia thought, ¡°Well you do now¡­¡± he sucked his teeth staring intensely deep into her eyes. ¡°You¡¯re too close¡­¡± Adia mumbled innocently, biting her lips in embarrassment. ¡°You need to stop abusing your lips, Adia..¡± he said in a deep voice. ¡°They¡¯re mine to take care of..¡± he smirked as Adia scrunched her face at what he said, he has been amusing her for the past few days now. ¡°Unless you want to be punished of course..¡± he smiled in mischief, and before Adia could say anything else, he has already captured her lips. 139 Adia remained stunned as Sebastian kissed her, it took her quite a while before she finally registered, what was going on, but she couldn¡¯t back down just yet right?, In fact this is even what she wanted to kiss him so badly, as her whole being yearned for him. She wrapped her hands around his neck as they engaged in a heart shattering kiss, thanks to their previous kisses, she has gotten quite better in kissing. He groped her waist, drawing her close to himself, making her stand up on her feet, without disengaging from the kiss they shared. He held her waist tight, closer to himself, as if he didn¡¯t want to let go of her, well he never wanted to let go of her and hold her close to himself forever. Adia opened her mouth, allowing his tongue into her mouth, their tongues dancing in the same rhythm. He nibbled on her lower lip, biting on it from time to time, he knew exactly why he was doing this, because he wanted her, he longed for her. ¡°Sebastian..¡± Adia muttered, pushing him slightly as they both disengaged from the kiss. ¡°Why are you doi..?¡± She bit her lips preventing her from saying anything further, she¡¯s obviously about to ask a pointless question. ¡°I thought I told you not to abuse this lips of yours?,¡± He squinted his eyes at her, as he ced his thumb on her lip, caressing it softly. ¡°Now you¡¯re going to get punished¡± he said with a mischievous glint in his eyes, as Adia just stared at him in confusion. ¡°Punish me?¡± She raised a brow at him, not obviously getting what he was driving at, why will he punish her for biting her lips, it¡¯s her body, so she can do whatever she wants to it?, She thought. ¡°Of course..¡± he confirmed, ¡°Don¡¯t worry I¡¯m not going to hurt you, I¡¯m punishing you in a good way¡­¡± he smiled wickedly at her. Before Adia could say anything else, he had already lifted her off the ground, he used his free hand to clear the things that wereying on the table in front of them, before making Adia sit on it. ¡°Bloody hell..¡±Adia uttered in embarrassment because her towel had loosened, due to the impact he used in dropping her on the table. She has long forgotten that she was tying a towel around her chest, now she¡¯s now embarrassed more than ever. She quickly raised her hands to hide her twin peaches that were exposed in front of Sebastian¡¯s peering eyes, but he beat to it, as he held her hands, stopping her midway. ¡°Don¡¯t..¡± he growled in a low tone, that kind of felt satisfying to her, it didn¡¯t scare her at all, infact his deep voice seemed to have aroused her. Sebastian stared lustfully at her rounded peaches, feeling his eyes. They have gotten bigger than thest time. It¡¯s probably because of her pregnancy hormones, that¡¯s why it¡¯s better, but it¡¯s better this way, and it even left him salivating more than ever. He ced her hands back on the table, holding both hands, so as to prevent her from moving any further. He held his gaze with hers for the longest of time, before leaning over to kiss her again, this kiss was more intense than thest, as he kissed her hungrily, as of he wanted to take her breath away, Adia kissed him with the same ferocity, he used in kissing her, but was quite ufortable that her upper body was naked, but it seems if he had no ns of stopping anytime so, so she¡¯ll just have to adapt to him around her like this. His grip on her hands loosened, so she used the opportunity to free herself from his hold, but she had no ns of pushing him away, instead she ced her hands around his neck drawing him closer.ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org . He thentched his mouth on her neck, sending light and feathery kisses there, as he kissed her slowly, nibbling on her flesh, Adia could do nothing but hold his shirt tight, as she gasped sharply from time to time, his mouth, tongue and everything felt so hot on her, he sucked her so hard as of he wanted to brand her, and make her his. He continued kissing round her neck, the pressure getting worse, each passing second, Adia rested her back on the mirror behind her, as she ced her head on it, raising it slightly, as she drew in sharp breaths, howe he¡¯s so good at this?. Sebastian kissed her from her neck down, as he finally settled on her breasts, he stared at her twin peaches hungrily, beforetching his mouth on one of them, nibbling on her nipple, which was already taut and red, he didn¡¯t fail to notice the goosebumps on her skin, as he smiled in contentment, happy that she was responding to his touches. He sucked on her nibble softly, biting it from time to time, making soft moans to escape from Adia¡¯s mouth, each time he bit her nipples, due to the pressure he uses, he ced his hands on her other breasts fondling it tenderly, as he devoured the other one. Adia couldn¡¯t help but allow the moans she¡¯s being trying to surpass escape her lips, as she couldn¡¯t take it anymore, each time he bit her nipple, he pinched the other, making her gasped, how is he so good as this?, She thought, her insides had already pooled up, she was sure of this, but she cared less, she honestly wanted him to do more, to do more sinful things to her, she felt him remove his mouth from her breasts, as he traveled downwards, still sending kissing, she unconsciously looked downwards, only to see him kneeling before her with his hands on her knees, Adia immediately wanted to protest, wondering why he must be kneeling, but stilled when he parted her legs, revealing her sex in front of him. 140 Sebastian groaned as his dick twitched at the sight of her glistening sex, he badly wanted to f*ck her so hard that she would scream out her his name in pleasure, but sadly he can¡¯t do that, due to her condition, but that would not stop him from pleasuring her, he¡¯ll try his best to go easy on her. He gathered the towel around her waist up, tossing it away from her body, that she was now bare before him, he didn¡¯t fail to notice the shock in Adia¡¯s face, as he did all these things to her, she¡¯s new to all these, but she¡¯ll have to get used to them as long as they are together, which will definitely happen, because from the sounds she made, he was sure she was enjoying this as well. Adia seemed to have recovered from her shock as she immediately made way to shit her legs together, but his grip on her knees was so strong, instead he lifted her legs up, cing them each on his shoulders, as he moved closer to her sex. Adia inhaled sharply, resting her back on the mirror. She has no choice, but let him do whatever he wants with her, at least she¡¯s also benefiting from it, as she also feels good. Sebastian rubbed her sex that was already wet with her love juices. ¡°Fuck..¡± he cursed taking in a sharp breath, her spotless and hairless cunt seemed to have aroused him a thousand times more, ¡°What?¡± Adia asked innocently raising her head up, thinking maybe he probably found something wrong there, that¡¯s why he cursed. ¡°Nothing..¡± he replied in a low tone, ¡°Then why did you curse so loudly¡± she pouted, as she has this insecure feeling z maybe he doesn¡¯t find her good enough, or attractive, the fact she¡¯s pregnant, he can be feeling ufortable with her. ¡°Maybe you don¡¯t find me attractive..¡± she added in a low tone as Sebastian chuckled dryly. ¡°Adia..¡± he called her name out loud, his deep voice sending chills down her spine, goddd, he¡¯s looking so damn hot and sexy right now. ¡°Do you know how much you¡¯re torturing me right now?¡± He sucked his teeth as Adia nced at him. ¡°And the fact you¡¯re torturing without making any attempts..¡± a growl vibrated from his chest, she¡¯s looking so hot right now, that he wants to damn her and take her along with him to hell, he wants to do dirty and sinful things to her. Actually he¡¯s very shocked and surprised that Adia has been able to evoke this kind of feelings in him, like she¡¯s making him act this way without even trying, other women do a lot to get his attention, and here he is, drooling over her, wanting her so badly. ¡°You¡¯re so hot Adia, even hotter than before..¡± he praised as Adia smiled widely, at least he doesn¡¯t find her unattractive, she just fell in love with him ten thousand times more, and she knows he feels the same way, though he has never said those words to her, she can see it in his eyes, those metallic gray orbs of his that melt her problems away.This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org. He focused his attention back on her sex, he yed with her folds, as he pinched her flesh ying, earning him a soft whimper from her. He slid one of his fingers into her wet entrance, her wetness allowing to go into her more freely. Adia took in a sharp breath the moment she felt him go into her, then after some seconds, he began to move in and out of her. A loud moan escaped from Adia¡¯s lips as she immediately shut her mouth, the noise sounded strange in her ears, so she felt maybe he¡¯ll probably find it strange. ¡°Bad, bad, girl..¡± he shook his head disapprovingly. ¡°No babe, let me hear them, I want to hear you make those sounds for mean, and scream out my name in pleasure..¡± he said as Adia found herself smiling widely, he likes it after all. ¡°Okay..¡±she breathed out, ¡°That¡¯s my good girl..¡± he smiled wickedly, as he suddenly added another finger inside on her. ¡°Arrh..¡± Adia screamed out loud, because of the strong impact he used in going inside of her, she didn¡¯t expect him to do that at all. But him inside her was so satisfying. Soon after, Adia found herself, moaning out in pleasure, as she drooled, due to the way his finger moved inside of her, it felt so hot and sexy, fuck.. how can he bo so good at many things, she¡¯s moaning out so shamelessly, but she can¡¯t even think of holding back, because it¡¯s so satisfying, if his finger can feel this good, how then will his.. she opened her eyes wide, at the thought of his dick inside of her, she¡¯ll just die if he gets to bone her someday, well, they both had sex before, but she wouldn¡¯t even count that as having sex, so to Adia, she has never had sex. He finally removed his fingers from inside her, as he took a look at his hands, which had already been flooded by her love juices, he ced his fingers in his mouth tasting her. ¡°You taste so sweet, wife..¡± he uttered as Adia blushed hard, as she bit her lips, she felt empty, now he was no longer inside of her, she grinded her ass against the table, motioning for him to go inside of her. ¡°So impatient wife..¡± he said, noticing her movements, ¡°So impatient..¡± he repeated, before leaning towards her sex, he ced his tongue there, giving her a long lick. ¡°Oh dare God..¡± Adia drew in a sharp breath, feeling his wet tongue on her, she can¡¯t believe that he will lick her there, but it felt so good as he licked her wickedly, biting hard on her flesh, before driving his tongue inside her, ¡°Fuck..¡± Adia cursed, cing her hands on his already damp hair gripping it hard, as her loud moans filled the room, Sebastian Moreau Hunters is not going to be the death of her. 141 AT THE STREETS OF ORLEANS¡­ Arion sped past the dark streets of Orleans, trying to find a new ce to settle for tonight, he has ransacked the whole of Orleans, and still hasn¡¯t found anything that can help, he has this feeling that what he was trying to find was within his reach, but he just can¡¯t seem to get a grasp of it. ¡°Fuckers..¡± he caused, sighting amotion at the front, he doesn¡¯t care what¡¯s going on there, as he¡¯ll just mind his business and go his way, but they¡¯re in the middle of the road and the man is seemingly molesting the girl. ¡°Hey..¡± he rolled his windows down when he got there, as he pointed at the man who snapped his head quickly to look at the intruder. ¡°A vampire..¡± he chuckled, seeing the man¡¯s fangs and bloodshot eyes, so he¡¯s trying to feed on the girl afterall. ¡°Get out of my way¡­¡± he tapped his fingers on the car¡¯s wheel noisily waiting for them to clear his way. ¡°You really have no fear huh..¡± the vampire raises a brow at Arion, marveling at his braveness, he didn¡¯t even flinch at the sight of his fangs and eyes, well it¡¯s a plus two for him, as he¡¯s going to feed on both him and the girl today. ¡°Fear of what?¡± Arion chuckled at the vampire¡¯s naivety, he was obviously bitten, the color of his eyes was a lighter shade of red, unlike the twilight vampires whose eye Color was dark red. ¡°Me of course,e out you..¡± he beckoned, and before Arion could say anything else, the vampire had already broken his car door, removing it as he tossed it away. Arion clicked his tongue calmly ncing sideways at the vampire, whatever he had going here was never his business, nor he just made him mad, he shot a re at the girl, or young girl rather, who stood shakily at a corner. ¡°Get out..¡± the vampire growled loudly, banging the car, as he bared his fangs at Arion, who didn¡¯t even bait an eye at him, making him more furious. ¡°What¡¯s your name?¡± Arion questioned calmly, as he stepped out of the car like a savage lord. ¡°Brian¡­¡± the man replied, ¡°Brian Harper, age, thirty two, oh wait, you¡¯ve actually lived for eighty years..¡± Arion voiced out smacking his lips distastefully, ¡°No wonder you¡¯re so stupid..¡± he added as Brian growled in anger, on the other hand curious on how Arion knew so much about him. ¡°I don¡¯t have anything to do with you Brian, as you can see, you destroyed my car and is supposed to pay for it, but I¡¯ll let you off this time, get out of my way and enjoy your meal..¡± he stated, but the girl suddenly stepped out as she grabbed Arion¡¯s arms, ¡°Please sir, don¡¯t leave me with him..¡± she begged shakily, as Arion snapped at her, ¡°Let go of me, young girl, deal with your problems yourself..¡± he said, releasing her from his hold, red haired, green eyed, and too young to die. ¡°Please sir, he¡¯ll kill me, I¡¯m so scared, don¡¯t leave me with him..¡± she pleaded, grabbing his hands for the second time, as she trembled, she really didn¡¯t want to die, in the hands of a vampire. ¡°You were about to die anyway, just pretend as if you never saw me..¡± he rolled his eyes, he really hates involving himself in matters like this, ¡°But sir, you¡¯re my only hope, please¡­¡± she begged, not losing hope, feeling certain that Arion is the only one that can get her out of this mess, she could have just listened to her sister and stayed back. ¡°Trust me sweetheart, you can only wish you never met me, you¡¯re better off with me, at least you get to die peacefully..¡± he raked his fingers through his hair, which had already be damp with sweat. ¡°So you¡¯re really going to leave me here, to die..¡± she questioned meaningfully, ¡°You were about to die anyway, I didn¡¯t put you in this..¡± ¡°I can¡¯t die sir, I¡¯m just seventeen, I¡¯m too young to die, I haven¡¯t attended prom, or had my first kiss, please I still have a lot of things to do, help me please¡­¡± she pleaded in tears, as Arion took a good look at her as his jaw worked. ¡°Then what are you doing here, by this time at night, you¡¯re meant to be at home, little girl..¡± ¡°Yes, the thing is I ran away from home, please just don¡¯t let him feed on me..¡± she muttered, ncing at Brian who stared impatiently at them, baring his fangs. ¡°Then you should have stayed at home..¡± he uttered, releasing her hold from him, as he diverted his attention to his car. ¡°Sir, no, don¡¯t leave me here with him, he¡¯s trying to force himself on me, don¡¯t leave me here..¡± she pleaded nonstop as Arion turned back to face them, it seems as if he has already made up his mind. ¡°Come with me..¡± he finally said as the girl breathed in relief, running to hold Arion without even thinking twice. ¡°Thanks so much sir¡­¡± she breathed out standing behind Arion as Brian stared angrily at them. ¡°You, how dare you take her, she¡¯s my next meal!!¡± Brian yelled in anger, his voice vibrating, as the girl tightened her grip on Arion burying her head on his back.This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org. ¡°Well, find someone else, she¡¯s off limits now..¡±Arion phased out, bored of this whole drama, he never intended to spend such a long time here. ¡°And who are you to say so?¡± ¡°You know what?¡±Brian began, ¡°I¡¯ll start with you, then get, I¡¯ll fuck her, then kill her, before burying the both of you together, so you can go rot in hell..¡± he swore, raising his fist to punch Arion. But his fist nevernded on Arion, since he caught his hand just in time, ¡°I really hate vampires like you..¡±he smacked his lips, ¡°Step away red hair..¡± he whispered to the girl, who quickly stepped backwards. ¡°There¡¯ll be nost words for you, since you don¡¯t deserve that honor..¡± he smirked, as Brian stared at him wide eyed. ¡°Try me and ..¡± he never got to finish his statement, as Arion was already in front of him, he held Brian¡¯s head tight, as he sank his fangs in his neck, sucking his blood till thest drop, Brian struggled all to no avail as Arion was a hundred times stronger than him. Arion dropped his lifeless body on the floor noisily on the floor as he faced the girl, who stood wide eyed and dumbstruck. ¡°Where were we honey?¡± He questioned, licking the blood off from the corner of his lips. 142 The red haired girl stood shakily as she stared at the dessicated body of the dead vampire who Arion had just killed on the floor. She actually knew something was off about him and that he was ten times stronger than the dead vampire Brian. That¡¯s why she asked him for help. ¡°I knew you were a vampire too¡± she eximed, bracing herself up, as she arranged her clothes that were torn at different ces all because of the struggling she had with Brian earlier, when trying to free herself. ¡°You¡¯re free now, you can leave now..¡± Arion informed cleaning the corner of his lips, as he walked over to his car. ¡°Fuck¡± he cursed kicking his car with such a strong impact that the area he kicked was destroyed. The idiot Brian ruined his car, how does he go from here? It would take him hours before he gets another one, cause he had to wait till morning and probably purchase another. ¡°So you¡¯re a vampire too?¡± A tiny voice asked from behind him, as he snapped his head to face her. ¡°What are you still doing here? Go home..¡± he said, giving her a menacing re, but she seemed to be unfazed by him. ¡°I ran away from home..¡± she replied , ¡°Then find somewhere else to go¡± he suggested, picking up a few things that he needed from the car. ¡°I don¡¯t have anywhere else to go¡± ¡°Boyfriend, best friend..¡± he listed out his opinions as she shook her head. ¡°None..¡± ¡°Then why did you leave home?¡± He questioned curiously, why is he even still speaking with her? Well maybe it¡¯s because he¡¯s kind of intrigued to know how and why she knows about vampires and doesn¡¯t even look scared to be conversing with one. ¡°Because I and my sister had a fight¡± ¡°Then go make up with her¡± ¡°I¡¯m lost, I lost my way, I must have wandered off too far¡± she scratched the back of her neck nervously, ¡°Then find your way back..¡± ¡°I can¡¯t, you see this city is stark full of vampires, I¡¯m afraid I might get attacked again..¡± she exined, it¡¯s really risky to roam the streets of Orleans at night, because of the heartless vampires, that are always looking for where to sink their fangs in. ¡°Then you shouldn¡¯t have left home..¡± he spat, ¡°I¡¯m done talking with you, little girl..¡± he said, packing his stuff in a backpack, as he made his way to leave, but was suddenly held back by the red haired girl. ¡°Don¡¯t leave me here, I want toe with you¡± she proposed as his eyes squinted, why is she acting so brave? He thought he just killed a vampire a while ago in presence, and the body is still lying, but she¡¯s not even shaken by it. ¡°Aren¡¯t you scared of me?¡± He voiced out the question that has been bothering him. ¡°No, why should I? You¡¯re my lifesaver, so I owe you my life..¡± she smiled at him. ¡°I guess you already know about vampires right?¡± He questioned as she nodded, ¡°Why?¡± ¡°Well because, um, well ¡­the thing is um.. well, actually my sisters and I are kind of survivors, no parents and you know, so we usuallye across them, sometimes..¡± she stuttered as his jaw worked, ¡°So it¡¯s no longer news to us that vampires exist ..¡± she added, ¡°You should have reported this to the authorities ¡± ¡°You know no one will believe, well we actually did, but they called us mad, so..¡± she shrugged her shoulders, the next thing for them, was to learn about their weakness and start hunting them, ¡°Go home..¡± he said removing her hand from his, ¡°I can¡¯t, I¡¯ve lost my way..¡± she pouted with sad eyes as he chuckled dryly, ¡°That doesn¡¯t walk on me, little girl..¡± ¡°I¡¯m not a little girl..¡± she muttered, ¡°Please take me with you..¡± she pleaded, if he leaves her here, she¡¯ll definitely lose her life, because as of now she has no weapon with her that can kill a vampire. ¡°You seem to be new around here, and I can tell you¡¯re searching for something, take me with you I can help..¡± she offered her face beaming with smiles. ¡°No..¡± came his curt reply as her face fell, ¡°I¡¯m going to behave we, I¡¯ll help you find what you want, you know, I know Orleans like the back of my palms, I can help you..¡± she proposed, ¡°Like the back of your palms, eei..¡± he chuckled, ¡°I thought you lost your way home, if you know Orleans like the back of your palms, help yourself by going back home..¡± he said as she frowned, she didn¡¯t even think before lying, she had been busted. ¡°And look little for, I¡¯ve roamed the earth long before you were born, so you¡¯re not the one that¡¯s going to show me round..¡± he concluded, having made up his mind not to take her along with him, he seriously has nothing to do with her, a mere human, humans are thest creatures he wants to be near him. ¡°Alright you¡¯ve caught me, I¡¯m not lost, I ran away from home, you see, my sisters always lock me indoors, so I fled, I want to explore Orleans, so please take me with you¡± she whimpered, ¡°Then you made a very stupid decision, red haired, go back home¡± ¡°Please Blondie, take me along..¡± ¡°What did you just call me?¡± ¡°Blondie, you call me red haired too, please take me with you..¡± she ced her hands together begging him. ¡°No¡± ¡°Please ¡± ¡°No..¡± ¡°Please, please, please, please, please, please¡­please ¡± she kept on uttering please, as Arion stared at her in disbelief. ¡°I¡¯ll do whatever you want..¡± ¡°Here..¡± he threw his bag to her, which she quickly caught, ¡°Follow me..¡± he finally said, as she jumped up in joy. ¡°Also, collect a coat from my bag and put it on¡± he offered, because her clothes were tattered and were not giving, people might get the wrong idea. ¡°Thanks..¡± she appreciated smiling from ear to ear. ¡°Don¡¯t get too happy, Red haired, I still don¡¯t trust you, so any mistake, you¡¯ll lose your head..¡± he threatened, ¡°Make no mistakes, noted..¡± she said like an obedient soldier, ¡°Let¡¯s go, we¡¯ll find a ce to spend the night ¡±This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org. ¡°Aye captain..¡± ¡°Don¡¯t ever call me that?¡± He said with a threatening re, walking away into the dark nights, as she followed behind him. ¡°Then what can I call you, Mr vampire, hottie, My sexy vampire, Mr seductive..¡± she bbed listing all the names out, but damn he¡¯s hot. ¡°Shut up, don¡¯t say anything..¡± he snapped at her. ¡°Ok, I can tell you my name, ¡± she offered, ¡°I don¡¯t want to hear it..¡± ¡°My name is El..¡± ¡°Any more words from you, and I¡¯ll send you back..¡± he threatened, and that seemed to have done the trick, as she mped her mouth together. 143 Arion walked along the streets, with the stranger he picked up, behind him, as he tried looking for where to pass the night. ¡°We can book a hotel..¡± she tried suggesting, but one look from him was enough to shut her up, How scary looks can shut anybody up, he¡¯s so intimidating. ¡°Follow me, I know someone around here¡± he informed, walking into a dark alley, a friend of his lives around here, they can pass the night at her ce, tomorrow he purchases a new car, if not for the human girl with him, he wouldn¡¯t have even bother to look for where to stay, he can roam around till morning. ¡°So you do know someone around here?¡± She questioned nodding her head meaningfully, ¡°I thought I said, no more words from you?¡¯ he snapped, ¡°I¡¯m sorry, but I can¡¯t help it, how do you expect me to stay quiet throughout our whole journey..¡± she rolled her eyes, stepping a few meters away from him, due to his terrifying look, he¡¯s so scary and holds a domineering Aura, but nheless he¡¯s the most handsome vampire she¡¯s evere across. ¡°How can someone stay quiet for this long..¡± she mumbled to herself, but he heard her quite clearly, but just decided to ignore her. They arrived at a house, which stood out amongst the other houses, it surely had a story to tell. Arion knocked on the door, and after a few seconds, a woman stepped out, as the red haired girl suddenly gasped, did he seriously bring her to ady¡¯s house, she took in a deep breath, trying to conceal her shocked expression. ¡°Arion..¡± her sweet tiny voice rang in their ears, as she smiled warmly at Arion. ¡®so his name is arion.¡¯ she thought, standing a few distance from Arion and Freya. ¡°Long time no see, never expected to see you, it¡¯s been long you know..¡± Freya drew out, it¡¯s Been so long since she left britaris, and Arion has grown so much. ¡°We need a ce to crash, Freya..¡± he went straight to the point as Freya¡¯s eyes traveled to the red haired girl behind him as she took a good look at her, Wondering who she might be. ¡°I see, doe in..¡± she chuckled sheepishly, opening the door wide for both of them to go in. ¡°You know you¡¯re always weed here..¡± she smiled, clearing the sofa for them to seat, ¡°Thanks..¡± the red haired girl mumbled, sitting slowly on the chair, looking round the house, she never meant to be rude but looking round a person¡¯s house, a person she¡¯s never met, but she was just curious that¡¯s all. The house was small,fortable enough for one person, and she was certain that Freya lived alone here, the antique was old, the sitting room had a firece, which kept the house warm. ¡°So can I offer you anything?¡± Freya asked as Arion shook his head, he had fed earlier from Brian, and that can be able to satiate him for three days, before he has to feed again. ¡°What about you?¡± She pointed at red haired, ¡°No thanks..¡± she politely refused, having this difort feeling within her. ¡°Ok..¡± Freya shrugged her shoulders, taking her seat as well. ¡°I never expected to see you in Orleans, what brings you here?¡± She asked, looking really surprised, Arion was one of the Moreau brothers she had expected to meet, this one is so distant from everyone, you never know what¡¯s going on in that head of his. ¡°And your brothers, how are they, it¡¯s been so long you know..¡± she smiled weirdly, ¡°You know you can always return to Britaris Freya,¡± Arion drew out, with a calm expression on his face. ¡°I know, but I feel it¡¯s not the right time yet, I don¡¯t know how I¡¯ll be weed, especially by Marina, so what brings you to Orleans?¡± She questioned, with a curious look in her eyes, ¡°I¡¯m here to find something..¡± came Arion¡¯s curt reply, ¡°And what¡¯s that, I can help you find it, I¡¯ve been here long enough,¡± she offered, but Arion quickly declined her, he didn¡¯t want the services of anybody, especially a vampire. ¡°No need, Freya, I¡¯ve got it covered,..¡± ¡°Your choice, who¡¯s she?¡± Freya pointed at the Red haired, as if sensing her presence for the first time. ¡°You new toy?¡± She asked with a sneer, as red haired red at her, ¡°No¡± came Arion¡¯s short reply, ¡°Then who?, I guess she knows about vampires, you must have beenpelled right?¡± ¡°Yes,¡± ¡°I see, well have fun, what¡¯s your name?¡± She asked the red haired, as she lifted her face up. ¡°Me?¡± ¡°Yes you¡± ¡°Eloise¡­¡± she replied, as Arion turned to face her instantly, before looking away , almost at the same time, the name kind of rings a bell. ¡°Eloise..¡± Freya repeated, staring intently at her. ¡°I guess you must live here in Orleans?¡± ¡°Yes i do¡± Eloise answered, as she concluded that Freya must be a curious person, she has not stopped asking questions, since they came here,Content bel0ngs to N?vel(D)r/a/ma.Org. ¡°I haven¡¯t seen you around before,¡± ¡°That¡¯s because Orleans is a big city, you can¡¯t possibly meet everyone living here..¡± she chimed in, evy does it feel like Freya is interrogating get, there no need for all these questions seriously, ¡°But..¡± ¡°Freya, help her with some clothes..¡± Arion chimed in, ¡°The journey was kind of a long one, you¡­¡± he pointed at Eloise. ¡°Follow her, freshen up ande back here¡± he instructed, ¡°Ok..¡± Eloise replied, standing up on her feet, Freya doing the same. ¡°Come with me..¡± Freya beckoned, as Eloise followed behind her. Arion took in a deep breath, immediately they were out of sight, he rested his back on the cushion, he¡¯s been searching so far, and hasn¡¯t found anything yet, though he¡¯s certain a witch resides here in Orleans, he only took Eloise with him for a reason, because he had this feeling that she was the answer to us problems, she might be the one that would lead him to a witch, tomorrow there¡¯s someone he has to find and she¡¯s going to help him find that person. 144 Eloise tossed around the bed, as the the direct sunlight hit her eyes, ¡°Who¡¯s it, close the windows..¡± she muttered rubbing her eyes, as used the pillow to cover her head. ¡°Get up..¡± she heard a voice in her sleep, ¡°I don¡¯t want to, let me sleep more..¡± she yawnedzily, ¡°I¡¯m not repeating myself anymore, if you don¡¯t get up from the bed, I¡¯ll leave you here alone with Freya..¡± Arion threatened, standing a few meters away from the bed. ¡°I don¡¯t want to.. leave me?¡± She finally came to her senses, the moment she heard that statement, ¡°Don¡¯t leave me here¡± she yelled standing up from the bed, to see Arion standing, dressed and ready to leave. ¡°Oh Lord, I must have overslept¡­¡± she bit her lips, as she arranged her scattered hair, she¡¯s looking so homeless right now, she¡¯ll have to freshen up before leaving here. ¡°You have three minutes to freshen up..¡± he stated. Walking out of the room, leaving a confused Eloise, how is she expected to freshen up in thirty minutes? She¡¯s ady, anddies need time for crying out loud, but then she remembered the kind of person she was dealing with, he¡¯ll definitely leave her here. ¡°You can do it. Eloise..¡± she gingered herself up, dashing into the bathroom. .. .. .. Eloise ran out the room, she spent the night already dressed as she went to Arion, dressed in the same clothes Freya gave herst night, well she has nothing to wear, so she has to repeat the clothes she wore before. ¡°I¡¯m ready..¡± she announced, as Arion nced at her. ¡°Let¡¯s go..¡± he said heading for the door, ¡°Aren¡¯t you going to have breakfast?¡± Freya asked Eloise who stared at Arion, waiting for his approval, she¡¯s fucking hungry and haven¡¯t ate since yesterday afternoon, so yes she wants to have breakfast. ¡°No, we have to hit the road now..¡± he declined, reaching for the door knob. ¡°But I¡¯m starving, Mr sexy vampire..¡± Eloise rolled her eyes, as she followed him angrily, it¡¯s so easy for him to say, when he just fedst night, a full course meal, while she had nothing. ¡°When did you get a car?¡± She asked, he¡¯s so fast, it¡¯s just morning, and a car is already parked here, probably it¡¯s Freya¡¯s. ¡°See you Arion, good luck..¡± Freya wished waving at them ¡® So his name is Arion.. ¡® Eloise reasoned meaningfully, she must have heard that namest night, but was too tired to register that on her brain. ¡°Bye..¡± she waved at Freya, though it was not from her heart, the female vampire has lots of dark secrets she¡¯s hiding and will only lead to her Doom. She got into the car, locking the door, as she fastened her seat belt, Arion doing the same. ¡°Where are we going now?¡± She asked, as he drove into the road, ¡°Everywhere¡± came his reply, as he faced the road ¡°By the way, what are you trying to find?¡± She asked without meaning to pry, but it seems like what he was searching for was no ordinary thing, seeing how hard he¡¯s trying. He turned to face her as his jaw worked, thinking if it might be a good idea to tell her about his search, but she mighte in handy, seeing she¡¯s a human who knows a lot about vampires. ¡°Red haired..¡± he called, returning his attention to the road. ¡°Yes sir..¡± she replied,Content bel0ngs to N?vel(D)r/a/ma.Org. ¡°Drop the formalities¡± he stated, as sir sounded so strange in his ears, ¡°Ok..¡± she smiled warmly at him, ¡°And don¡¯t smile at me..¡± he warned as her face fell. ¡°Tell me about yourself, how well do you know vampires?¡± He asked instinctively, ¡°There¡¯s nothing much to say..¡±Eloise began, ¡°I have three sisters, we lost our parents when we were just little kids. I was still a baby when my mother died, I never got to see her, but my sister usually say that I look like her a lot, like her carbon copy, my both parents were killed by vampires, ¡± she sniffled, ¡°It was a cold night, when the vampires raided our house, my father tried so hard to save his family, seeing my father was losing against the vampires, my mother had to choice but to hide us. She died to save her lovely children, she died protecting us, my two sisters watched her die, it was so painful to watch her die, so my sisters swore to avenge my parents death, stupid right?¡± She chuckled dryly, ¡°We could never stand a chance against those bloodsuckers, but we had to survive, so my sisters, tried looking for means to kill them, they captured and tortured them till they could find their weaknesses, and they did, no we¡¯re semi vampire hunters, I can easily kill one..¡± she concluded taking in a deep breath, ¡°Then why did you run away from home?¡± ¡°Because I don¡¯t like the life my sisters are living, a life of vengeance, I don¡¯t want to be like that, I want to be free..¡± she expressed herself, as Arion just listened, ¡°Do you like Vampires?¡± He questioned, ¡°No, I hate them..¡± she answered truthfully, ¡°Then why are you here, with me?¡± He raised a brow at her, she was adamant oning with me. ¡°My honest reply is this, I like you, I like, like you¡± she confessed as Arion scoffed, ¡°You can¡¯t be a serious kid .¡± ¡°No I¡¯m serious, I have a huge crush on you, from the first time I met you..¡± she bbed as Arion stared at her in amusement, she really is a kid. ¡°I¡¯m older than you¡­¡± he pointed out, ¡°I don¡¯t care¡­¡± ¡°You¡¯re just seventeen..¡± ¡°I still don¡¯t care, age Is just a number..¡± ¡°Snap out of it red haired..¡± he saidzily, ¡°Even if they¡¯re women left on this earth, I won¡¯t spare a nce at you..¡± he stated, as Eloise growled at him yfully. ¡°You never can tell.¡± She grinned shrugging her shoulders, ¡°Where are we going now?¡± She asked, ¡°To one Ms Rayner..¡± he replied as Eloise suddenly went cold. 145 Adia sat devouring the breakfast served before her, as she waited for Sebastian to finish freshening up. He had promised to take her out today, on a personal tour, and she was already dressed waiting for him toe out. The past two day has been the best of her life so far, the best since she hade to live with Sebastian, he has been nothing but sweet to her, she never knew he had a sweet side until two day ago, he also pleasured her from time to his, and his mouth on her was¡­breathtaking. ¡°I knew when I asked you to be cool about what I was¡­..¡± Adia sang quietly as she cleared up the tes she used in having breakfast, she was about to return to the sitting room, when she felt a burning sensation on her chest, feeling the need to throw up, she quickly rushed to the sink, maybe she must have probably eaten too much, it must be indigestion, she thought, bending over to pour out the contents that were threatening to choke her. But to her dismay, the foods never came out, instead what she vomited was blood, Adia opened her eyes wide in shock as she saw blood on the sink, she quickly rinsed off the blood with water, wiping her mouth as well, to hide any proof of her ever vomiting blood, she didn¡¯t want Sebastian to see or know about this, she felt another lump form on her throat, as she quickly bent over to put out the contents, and yet again she vomited blood, she turned on the tap taking heavy breaths, is she real going to die now?, She thought feeling a pang of pain in her chest. ¡°Are you okay?¡± She heard Sebastian¡¯s voice behind her, as she hastily wiped her mouth, ¡°Yes, yes, I¡¯m fine..¡± she stuttered turning quickly to face him,All content is ? N0velDrama.Org. ¡°Are you sure?¡± He asked taking a good look at her, ¡°You look kind of pale..¡± ¡°Yes, I¡¯m fine, I just had a indigestion..¡± she coughed, turning off the tap. ¡°I think my food went into the wrong pipe, but I¡¯m good..¡± she assured him, not feeling the need to tell him about the fact that she vomited blood, it will oy cut their vacation short and they will have to return back home, it can also serve as a distraction from saving Logan. ¡°Okay, but you still don¡¯t look fine, have you been taking your medicines?¡± ¡°Yes, but they are almost finished..¡± Adia replied as he nodded, ¡°That shouldn¡¯t be a problem then, I¡¯ll ask Evans to send some, you also need to do a check-up.¡± He stated, Adia was looking pale and kinda exhausted, he¡¯ll have to order more drugs for her, seeing her delivery is almost due, and he also needs to reach out to Arion and see how things are progressing over there in Orleans. ¡°Come here..¡± he beckoned, walking towards her, as he leaned over to kiss her, but Adia shifted her head sideways, preventing him from doing that. ¡°I just threw up, it¡¯s disgusting..¡± she chuckling, but that was a lie, is Sebastian kisses her, he¡¯ll definitely know something is wrong, hrs a vampire, vampires feed on blood, so he there¡¯s no way he¡¯s not going to taste blood on her if they kiss, ¡°But I don¡¯t care..¡± he shrugged his shoulders, ¡°But I do..¡± Adia stated, forcing out a smile, there¡¯s no reason to smile, but she has to, so he wouldn¡¯t get suspicious about her. ¡°Let¡¯s go..¡± she held his hand, dragging him along, she was set and ready to go, ¡°Where¡¯s your coat?¡± Sebastian asked, ¡°Oh my I almost forgot..¡± she gasped, ¡°Wait here , I¡¯ll get it .¡± He offered, going into the room. .. .. .. Adia and Sebastian walked hand in hand inti the mall, as she insisted she wanted to get some clothes, He tried protesting, seeing no reason why she wanted clothes, or what she intended to use them for, seeing she had enough packed in her closet, but she insisted, she needed to get it, so here they are. ¡°Is this ce with vampires as well?¡± She asked, looking around the huge mall, which was filled with people, and stuff as well. ¡°This city is for vampires, Adia, so you¡¯re one of the few humans here..¡± he exined, ¡°What do you want to get?¡± He queried, ¡°Baby clothes..¡± she replied, as Sebastian stated to her in bewilderment, she dragged him all the way here for baby clothes. ¡°You can¡¯t be serious Adia , you should have told me that you wanted baby clothes, I would have arranged someone to get them for you..¡± he voiced out, following her like an obedient puppy as she dragged him to the children¡¯s section. ¡°I know, I just want to pick up a few special things..¡± She responded, still dragging him there. She just feels the need to do so. If she¡¯s really going to die soon, they¡¯re lots of things she would want to do for her unborn babies, before leaving them, so they¡¯ll know that their mother always loved them. She badly wants to live, there¡¯s only a fifty percent chance for her to live that¡¯s if a witch s found, but Arion hasn¡¯t found one yet or even called them yet, about anything, so she might as well prepare for her impending death, which is a very painful thing to do, each Time she thinks about that, it feels as if her heart is being shattered to a million pieces. ¡°We haven¡¯t really done things we should do as expecting parents Sebastian..¡± she voiced out, ¡°Do you know how to tie a diaper?¡± She asked as Sebastian shook his head. ¡°You see, me neither, so we have to learn all of those things..¡± she stated, ¡°And we¡¯re going to do that Adia, but not now¡­¡± ¡°I don¡¯t know what¡¯s your deal Sebastian, but this is the perfect chance to do so, besides anything can happen..¡± She shrugged her shoulders, stopping at the babies section. She¡¯ll definitely spend a lot of time here, as they¡¯re lots of lovely things to buy. At least the only thing she can do now is live her life to the fullest, and make no mistakes, so she won¡¯t regret anything. 146 Sebastian stared hard at Adia, as he processed what she said in his head, what does she mean by anything can happen?, She¡¯s not epting defeat just yet, well he¡¯s not going to let anything happen to her, and do all he can to find a witch to save her and make her live. ¡°Come here, what are you thinking of?¡± Adia tapped him as she waved two hats in front of him. ¡°What do you think of these huh..¡± she asked still waving the hats, ¡°They¡¯re beautiful..¡± Sebastian replied,ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org . ¡°Perfect, I¡¯ll take these, look they¡¯re both perfect matches for twins..¡± she stated smiling brightly, ¡°I¡¯ll find something else,e on help me find something ..¡± she dragged him to the next section, as she reached out for a pair of shoes. ¡°What about this?,¡±she asked as Sebastian shook his head as he spoke, ¡°I don¡¯t like this, it¡¯s too nd ¡± ¡°Right?¡± ¡°I was thinking the same thing also, I¡¯ll try something else..¡± She kept on searching for the perfect pairs of shoes for babies. The search was a very long one, as she still hadn¡¯t found what she needed, the best of all. ¡°What about these ones..¡± she pointed at a pair of blue shoes, the other pink but with the same design. ¡°I think they look great..¡± ¡°I know right..¡± she chuckled reaching out for the pair of shoes, taking a look at it, ¡°It¡¯s beautiful Sebastian..¡± she admired the shoes she was holding as she felt her eyes tearing up, but she fought so hard to hold back her tears, there¡¯s no need to cry, she just has to be happy, ¡°I know..¡± he said in a cold voice. ¡°Come on Seb, shake it off, you¡¯ve been acting quite weird today, you have to get it off your head , and focus on today..¡± she advised searching for the next avable thing to buy, as she shoved the pair of shoes into the shopping basket she was holding. ¡°There¡¯s no need in all these Adia, you don¡¯t even know the sex of the babies..¡± he pointed out as she frowned. ¡°That¡¯s to show how ipetent you are, aren¡¯t you meant the know the sex already, spare me that Sebastian, we can talkter, now let me focus on my shopping ¡± she waved him off, ¡°You¡¯ve not even discussed the names, we¡¯re giving our kids..* she pouted, she seriously has no name on mind, and would loved to name her kids, just Incase luck doesn¡¯t shine in her in the future, ¡°We can always do that in the future, Adia..¡± ¡°And the future Is now..¡± she chimed in, ¡°Now be quiet, I¡¯m busy¡­¡± she snapped at him. .. .. .. ¡°So where are we going next?¡± Adia asked Sebastian who was holding two shopping bags In his hands. ¡°Anywhere, that¡¯s up for you to decide..¡± he replied, keeping the bags in the car trunk. ¡°Okay, we can go out to eat, oh sorry I forgot, vampires live here, so I¡¯m not sure there¡¯s going to be any good restaurant around¡± she reasoned, ¡°Well we can visit the woods¡­¡± she suggested, ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll we¡¯ll go there, after you have something to eat¡± he stated, ¡°How am I going to find food in a ce like this?¡± ¡°I have a friend, she makes good food..¡± he informed, opening the car for her to go in. ¡°She??¡± Adia raised a brow at him, as she got into the car. ¡°Yes she, and just a friend,¡± he deadpanned, Adia¡¯s jealousy is seriously going to the next level. ¡°Don¡¯t worry I¡¯m not gonna to eat anything anymore¡± ¡°Are you serious Adia?¡± Sebastian¡¯s brows furrowed, ¡°Don¡¯t tell me you¡¯re going hungry, because you¡¯re feeling jealous?¡± ¡°Not at all, it¡¯s just that I don¡¯t want to see you..¡± Adia stopped in her tracks, as she felt a lump form in her throat, she began to cough vigorously, as Sebastian quickly tended to her to see what is going on, from the looks of things she¡¯s not fine, in fact she has not been looking fine and that fact has been bothering him for quite a long time now, he knows Adia was hiding something from him, prior to her strange behaviors, something must definitely be wrong with her. ¡°Are you alright?¡± He asked stroking her back softly, ¡°Yes I¡¯m fine..¡± Adia managed to utter still coughing, she just hopes it¡¯s not what she thinks it is, what happened Earlier today must not repeat itself, at least not yet. ¡°Here have some water..¡± he offered, from the way he was seeing things, her health is slowly deteriorating, this morning she was looking pale, and kind of malnourished, as if she was drained off blood, well she¡¯s being drained off blood, as the babies inside of her are basically feeding on her blood. ¡°Thanks..¡± Adia stammered collecting the drink water from him as she took a big gulp from it, something is wrong with her, and it might be getting worse. ¡°Are you feeling better now?¡± He asked after sometime, ¡°Yeah I guess..¡± she replied, wiping the corner of her lips. ¡°Adia ¡± Sebastian called warmly, ¡°Yes¡­¡± ¡°Is there something you¡¯re not telling me?¡± He asked out of the blue. ¡°I don¡¯t get you..¡± Adia chuckled sheepishly. ¡°I know you¡¯re not fine, because you don¡¯t look fine, I¡¯ve noticed this for the past few days..¡± he voiced out, but it was too sudden for her to start feeling the symptoms, he didn¡¯t expect it to happen this soon. ¡°I¡¯m good, it¡¯s just that¡­¡± Adia suddenly began to start coughing, this time a little harder than the first time, she coughed violently cing her palm on her mouth, her chest aches a lot, and she feels this sharp pain each time she coughs, why is this happening now?, She thought bitterly. ¡°Adia, you¡¯re clearly not okay..¡± Sebastian blurted out, there¡¯s nothing she¡¯s going to tell him now that will make him believe that she¡¯s fine. He was about to utter another word, when his nose hit the sharp smell of blood, she looked up at Adia, and noticed she was looking quite uneasy, with her palm across her mouth, obviously trying to hide something. He quickly reached for her hand, removing it from her mouth, to see what she was hiding and was shocked beyond measure when he saw what it was, BLOOD!!! 147 ¡°Adia what¡¯s the meaning of all these¡± Sebastian asked holding her bloodied hand, ¡°I don¡¯t know..¡± she stuttered trying to control her hard cough that was threatening to choke her to death. ¡°How long has this been going on?¡± He suddenly asked picking up a napkin as he wiped off the blood from her palms, giving her another to put over her mouth. ¡°I don¡¯t know, this has never happened to me before¡­¡± Adia lied, ¡°Don¡¯t lie to me Adia¡± his voice thundered as he dropped the bloodied napkin angrily on the dashboard of his car, as the car shook violently making Adia tremble at the strong impact. ¡°I swear I don¡¯t know..¡± she stammered, if she told him that this had been going on, not only would he get very pissed at her, he would also shorten their trip and return back to his home in britaris. ¡°Seriously Adia, are we doing this?¡± He frowned at her lies. He could tell she was lying by the look on her face, and her pale appearance says it all. ¡°I swear¡­¡± ¡°Don¡¯t you f*cking lie to me Adia..¡± his voice thundered as Adia froze, now he¡¯s really mad at her, his once beautiful metallic gray orbs has now been reced with untold fury, like he wanted to murder someone. ¡°How long have this been going on Adia?¡± He asked again, this time with a stern and low voice. ¡°And don¡¯t even think of lying this time, cause you¡¯ll not like me after that¡± he warned as Adia gulped loudly, his Aura right now is so terrifying that she wouldn¡¯t dare and lie to him, because the Sebastian she knows doesn¡¯t make empty threats. ¡°This morning..¡± she finally revealed, ¡°Right after I finished breakfast, I felt this unsettling feeling in the depths of my stomach, and also felt a lump at my throat. I began to cough vigorously, then this ..¡± she pointed at the bloodied napkin in his arms. ¡°Why didn¡¯t you tell me?¡± He questioned in a low voice. ¡°Because I didn¡¯t want you to be worried about me..¡± she mouthed, bending her head low. ¡°Are you kidding me, I¡¯m not the one who¡¯s sick, the least I can do now is help you worry, you can¡¯t keep such a thing to yourself..¡±he uttered, she¡¯s already dying, but it¡¯s so soon, they never predicted this to happen this soon . ¡°I just felt the need to do so, you¡¯d definitely over react like this..¡± she stuttered shifting ufortably, as she felt his hard gaze on her, ¡°Overreact..¡± he smacked his lips distastefully as she red at Adia. Can she even hear herself?, If he did not find out about this today. She must have probably kept on hiding it from him and not tell him. ¡°Yes, but I¡¯m sorry, okay, I promise not to keep anything from you ever again, I just didn¡¯t want you to cut out vacation short and you might refrain from helping Logan and focus all your attention on me..¡± she tried exining her own point of view, but none of the things she said even mattered to Sebastian, neither did he even listen, the only thing on his head now, was how to go about Adia condition, nothing more.ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org . ¡°Well you¡¯re right, because we¡¯re returning back, right away and don¡¯t even think of stopping me..¡± he warned starting his car, zooming off In a haste, as Adia kept on breathing deeply, she doesn¡¯t want to leave , not yet, she¡¯ll have to persuade him no matter what. .. .. .. ¡°Sebastian, Adia, what brings you here?¡± Celeste was surprised to see the both of them walk into the sitting room, she thought Sebastian said he was noting home soon, not until the day of Logan¡¯s validation. ¡°We¡¯re leaving, tell the maids to pack our bags..¡± he announced as Celeste froze. What is Sebastian talking about? And why does he look so angry? ¡°Why are you.. Adia..¡± She averted her attention to Adia who was just walking in, looking like a shadow of her own self, something must have happened to them, and it¡¯s definitely not good news, she thought, reaching out for Adia, as she stretched out to embrace her. ¡°Mother..¡± Adia burst into tears immediately, Celeste held her, she couldn¡¯t control her emotions anymore, Sebastian was acting out of it, when did he suddenly be this angry, his reaction was far worse from what she expected. ¡°What is this Sebastian? What¡¯s all this?¡± She asked her son, helping a sobbing Adia to sit. ¡°Not now Celeste, we¡¯ll be leaving in an hour¡¯s time..¡± he stated in a stern and serious voice, anger zing in his eyes. ¡°I don¡¯t want to leave..¡± Adia spoke out holding Celeste tight, ¡°I¡¯m not going anywhere..¡± she added, ¡°What happened Sebastian, why did you want to leave all of a sudden?¡¯ Celeste questioned Sebastian. ¡°To get her treated..¡± cane his curt reply, ¡°Why? She can get treated here, I can arrange for the best doctors, and why does she need treatments?¡± Celeste wondered taking another look at Adia, something was definitely off about her. ¡°Because she¡¯s been throwing out blood since morning..¡± ¡°This is bad..¡± Celeste mumbled taking another look at Adia, as she shook her head ¡°And the only solution you could find is leaving this ce right?¡± She asked softly, ¡°Yes¡± he replied, it¡¯s obvious her time is near, she¡¯s dying and with time it will only get worse, She¡¯s going to be in a lot of pain, he¡¯s going to contact Arionter in the day, and hear from him, of Arion has not yet found anything, he¡¯ll have to send his men over there, and search for a witch, even if he has to turn the whole of Orleans upside down. ¡°Then that¡¯s not the solution to this son..¡± she began, anger never solves anything, it only worsens situations. ¡°That¡¯s for me to decide, ¡± he spat, ncing at Adia, who was seated beside his mother. ¡°Are you alright?¡± He asked, sensing something was not right. ¡°I.. I..¡± Adia began stuttering. ¡°I don¡¯t feel good..¡± she stammered in a very low voice, as Sebastian quickly spee to where she sat, Celeste turning immediately to hold her. ¡°What is it?..¡± she questioned anxiously. ¡°I don¡¯t feel good mother..¡± Adia gasped and the next moment, she suddenly threw up arge amount of blood. ¡°What¡¯s all this?¡± Sebastian asked horrified, as he stared at his bloodied hands and floor, not only was the blood she threw up much, it was also ck in Colour leaving him puzzled. ¡°I can¡¯t breathe Seb..¡± Adia gasped feeling out of breath, she felt so weak and it felt as if her body was failing her. ¡°Hold on, mother call the doctor..¡± Sebastian said hurriedly, picking Adia up in his arms, as Celeste froze, did Sebastian just call her mother, she hasn¡¯t heard that in ages. ¡°Hurry..¡± his voice rang in her ears, as she quickly snapped out of it. She¡¯ll think about thatter, now it¡¯s Adia she needs to worry about. 148 ¡°How¡¯s she doing now Marcel?¡± Sebastian asked the doctor, the moment he stepped out of Adia¡¯s room. ¡°What can I say?¡± ¡°Her condition is getting critical as we all know, she¡¯s losing blood, lots of em..¡± he informed, ¡°Don¡¯t forget she¡¯s carrying two babies, not one, so her health will keep on dwindling..¡± he stated, ¡°So there¡¯s nothing you can do?¡± Sebastian¡¯s brows furrowed, as Marcel stepped back a little, everyone knows how irrational Sebastian can act when angry. ¡°There¡¯s actually something we can do for now, I¡¯ll send some herbal herbster to relieve her pain, and also a blood tonic, that can also help as long as she takes them, I¡¯ll also rmend healthy foods, this time is very crucial for her, it¡¯s best if she doesn¡¯t stress herself, she should also refrain from thinking too much..¡± Marcel exined to them, as they listened with rapt attention, but it seems as if he was not done. ¡°Thest and most important of all is this, I¡¯ll rmend this and see if it will work..¡± ¡°And what is it?¡± Sebastian snapped, Marcel is speaking too much. ¡°Since she is getting drained of blood, I¡¯ll suggest we give her blood everyday..¡± ¡°She¡¯s human, how do you expect her to drink blood?¡± Sebastian asked angrily, ¡°I know, so we¡¯ll go for a blood transfusion, I¡¯ll check for her blood group, and arrange for blood bags, everyday we can transfuse two blood bags into her, probably that might also help..¡± he voiced out his suggestion, ¡°So what of your suggestions fail?¡± Sebastian queried. ¡°We just have to hope it works sir, I¡¯lle in tomorrow..¡± he said bowing. ¡°I should take my leave now..¡± she said walking away. ¡°Everything is fucked up..¡± Sebastian gritted his teeth staring at Adia whoid peacefully on the bed. ¡°No it¡¯s not..¡± Celeste chimed in softly, ¡°I¡¯m certain everything is going to work out¡± she added, ¡°We¡¯ll leave once she wakes up..¡± he stated as Celeste brows furrowed, wondering why he¡¯s so intent on leaving with Adia. ¡°I don¡¯t think that¡¯s the right thing to do son..¡± she began, ¡°It will only worsen her situation, for now I think you should do what she wants, not what you want..¡± ¡°I¡¯m very sure you heard what Marcel said, she needs absolute rest, how will she get that, if you make her leave against her wish, she¡¯ll only worry the most, and will live in guilt..¡± ¡°She¡¯s so guilty for what happened to Logan and feels it¡¯s all of her fault, how do you think she¡¯ll feel if you leave now? Huh, she¡¯ll never stop thinking about that and it will only worsen her condition..¡± Celeste signed deeply, staring at Adia. ¡°Poor thing..¡± she mumbled, she does not deserve any of this. ¡°Make her happy, Sebastian..¡± she voiced out. ¡°Do all you can to make sure a smile never leaves her face, give her nothing to worry about, don¡¯t forget thatughter is the best medicine..¡± Celeste concluded, if being here in britaris makes Adia happy, she¡¯ll have to remain in britaris, so she remains happy. ¡°I¡¯ll leave you to think about it, call me if you need anything..¡± she said, tapping Sebastian before walking away, giving him time to think. .. .. .. ¡°Are you doing okay now?¡± Sebastian asked Adia worriedly, taking a seat beside her, as he ced his hands around her shoulders. ¡°Yeah, I guess¡­¡± she replied feeling more better than before, ¡°What happened?¡± She asked, thest thing she remembers was vomiting blood after that her mind was nk. ¡°You passed out..¡± he replied almost in a whisper as Adia nodded slowly. ¡°What did the doctor say?¡± ¡°You have to take absolute care of yourself, and take your medications on time..¡± he exined, ¡°Ok..¡± Adia muttered, she¡¯s fine as long as her babies are alright. ¡°Seb..¡± she called softly, ¡°Hmm hmm..¡± ¡°I don¡¯t want to leave this ce..¡± she voiced out, it¡¯s so fun being here in britaris, and she feels she¡¯s not stayed long enough, she¡¯s yet to even meet Sebastian¡¯s father, who she knows is still alive, but no one speaks about him around here.ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org . ¡°Alright we can stay..¡± he spoke out loud, he had finallye to a conclusion to stay, if that¡¯s what will make her happy, then so be it, all that matters now is her health, nothing more. ¡°Thanks..¡± she muttered weakly, cing her head on his shoulders. ¡°Why do you want to leave here so badly?¡± Safe asked, he was notfortable with staying here and she knew it, that¡¯s one of the reasons why he probably took her away to their little vacation house, could it be that this ce reminds him of Aisling. ¡°Is it because of Ai..¡± ¡°It¡¯s not because of Aisling..¡± he interrupted, though he still had memories of her here, Aisling was definitely not the reason why he badly wanted to leave this ce. ¡°Then why, why don¡¯t you like being around your family?¡±she questioned, wanting to ask his father also, as she¡¯s not set her eyes on him since she stepped foot into this house, the only thing she knows is that Moreau is still breathing and alive. ¡°Because growing up here was kind of a hard thing for me..¡± he voiced out. ¡°Moreau spent most of his life ming himself for the death of Estelle fey, for so many years, he was a shadow of himself, that¡¯s to show how much he loved her..¡± he exined, ¡°But then Celeste still stayed, knowing his heart belongs to another, giving him her support, then what did he do, he went ahead to impregnate another woman, her maid at that..¡± he clicked his tongue distastefully, those were his worst days really, him watching his mother hurting at a corner, even when she killed Logan¡¯s mom, she never felt better, but then med herself for acting so irrationally. ¡°It¡¯s because she loved him, Seb..¡± Adia signed deeply, ¡°You can do anything for the one you love..¡± she said softly, she could do anything for him because she loved him, that¡¯s the only reason she has epted her fate to die, because she loves him that she can do anything for him, she has grown to love Sebastian so much, so much more that she could ever imagine or even believe. 149 ¡°Who was it?¡± Eloise asked immediately when Arion disconnected the call, he had this look of worry on his face, one can tell that something was definitely wrong. ¡°My brother..¡± came his curt reply, as he raked his hands through his hair, Sebastian had just informed him that Adia¡¯s health had drastically deteriorated, and now she has to be fixed on drip, where she will be given a daily dose of blood, he hasn¡¯t even gone far I¡¯m finding a witch, he hade all the way here to find one Mrs Reyner, but he only came here to discover that she was no longer living here. ¡°Oh..¡± she mouthed, standing a few meters away from him, he got very angry when he realized that Mrs Reyner no longer lived here, well she had no idea also that she had moved. ¡°What were you going to ask her for? Why were you meeting her?¡± Eloise questioned curiously, she had known Mrs Reyner for a very long time now, she was like a mother figure to both her and her sister, but she seriously had no idea that she had moved away from here. ¡°It¡¯s rumored that she¡¯s very good with herbs, and in a few asions, she was suspected to be using magic..¡± he replied, walking over to his car, as he pulled out his bag, he¡¯s not going to leave here, and ept defeat just like that, as long as there¡¯s been no record of Mrs Reyner dying, he must find her. ¡°What are you going to do now?¡± ¡°Break into the house..¡± he replied, bringing out a torch from his bag, as he threw it to Eloise, who caught it on time. ¡°You¡¯reing In with me..¡± he informed putting the bag back in the car, before heading for Mrs Reyner¡¯s apartment, he threw his fist right at the door lock, and the lock broke, making Eloise marvel at his strength. They slowly walked into the dark house, he looked around from the house and from the look of things it hasn¡¯t been long since a person lived here, it was neat and well arranged, perhaps did Reyner hear about him and decided to abscond. ¡°Just look around, and check for anything useful..¡± he said to Eloise who nodded her head slowly, she switched on the torch she was holding, as she looked around the house, she knows this ce quite well, in fact she knows the map of this house, she has been here a couple of times before, Mrs Reyner is quite close with her family.All content is ? N0velDrama.Org. ¡°Eloise!!!¡± Her name thundered in her ears, as she quickly ran to the direction, csge heard her name from, it seems as if Arion has found something, and from the way he called her, he sounded angry, she hopes it not something that can implicate her, she cannot afford to lose his trust. ¡°Yes, did you find anything?¡± She asked out of breath, as she had run all the way here. ¡°What the hell the this?¡± He asked angrily showing her a picture frame as Eloise suddenly turned cold, it was a picture of her, her sisters and Mrs Reyner, how dues she start exining herself. ¡°I can exin..¡± she began in a low tone, she had no idea Mrs Reyner still had this photo with her. ¡°Exin what!!!?¡± He howerled as Eloise flinched in fear, how does she tell him that she knows nothing about Mrs Reyner whereabouts, she¡¯ll be his prime suspect now. ¡°Are you not the one in this photo, with Mrs Reyner?¡± He questioned, with a hint of disbelief In his eyes, did he by any chance trust the wrong person. ¡°Yes I am..¡± she admitted, she stumbled backwards in fear that he might attack her. ¡°So you knew Reyner all along..¡± ¡°Yes, but I had no idea she was the Reyner you were talking about..¡± she gulped loudly, why did she have to lie now. ¡°Seriously..¡± he frowned at her, fire zing in his eyes, he must have caught the lie. ¡°Okay, I knew she was Mrs Reyner, but I swear, I know nothing about her whereabouts, or that she has moved from this ce, thatst time I came here was three months ago, please believe me.¡± she uttered in fear, the way he was staring at her now could actually bore holes on her skin, if eyes could kill, she would probably be dead by now. ¡°I should believe you..¡± he repeated in sarcasm. ¡°Yes I swear, the other people in the picture are my sisters, Elise and Esmeralda..¡± ¡°Mrs Reyner was like a mother figure to us..¡± ¡°Was..¡± he drew out staring intensely at her. ¡°Yes, was, I¡¯ve not seen her for the past three months, trust me, and there¡¯s no way I can know what happened to her when I ran away from home..¡± ¡°My sister Elise is married with a child, but her children fell critically ill, so he was brought to Mrs Reyner for treatment, that¡¯s how we became close like family friends, I promise..¡± she lied, because she can say the truth, or tell him what is actually going on, she just have to say a lie and prays he buys it. ¡°Then why didn¡¯t you tell me this from the start?¡± ¡°Because I didn¡¯t feel the need to, and I felt that you wouldn¡¯t believe me, trust me I was never aware of Mrs Reyner¡¯s disappearance, I wasn¡¯t that close to her, it was just my sisters Elise and Esmeralda..¡± she exined, ¡°Where are your sisters now?¡± He questioned, something felt familiar about those sisters of hers, but couldn¡¯t ce his hands on it, and he also had this feeling that she was lying to him and something was not right. ¡°My sister Elise is married with a kid, while Esmeralda is a spinster, she¡¯s not married, I live with Esmeralda, but at times I also live with Elise, who lives with her family..¡± she exined, ¡°Why did you run away from home?¡± ¡°Because I don¡¯t want the kind of life they want for me, I feel trapped and can¡¯t make my own decisions..¡± she confessed, if there was one w about her sisters, it was that they thought they owned her life. ¡°Look little girl..¡± he began, taking a step towards her. ¡°If there¡¯s one thing I hate the most, it¡¯s lies and deceit, and I will never hesitate to behead you if I ever find out that you¡¯ve been lying to me..¡± he threatened as Eloise gulped down nervously. ¡°Ok sir, I promise I¡¯m not lying..¡± ¡°Keep searching till you find something..¡± he looked away from her, as he continued his search. Eloise found herself breathing in relief, thank God he believes her, she doesn¡¯t want to lie to him, but she can¡¯t help it, since certain things are meant to stay hidden. 150 Adia stood in front of a mirror as she arranged her hair, the day for Logan¡¯s validation has finally arrived, she¡¯s been praying that everything turns out well. Two weeks has passed now, like it never came, and it has been like the toughest of her life, she had to adapt to a new changes in her life, from taking pills, to injections, and all, her lifetely has been about drugs and medications , as Sebastian has been trying everything he can to keep her stable, every morning she¡¯s usually fixed on a drip where two bags of blood is injected into her, she would have objected to this idea, if not that it has proved to be the best idea so far, she¡¯s looks better each passing day, but ording to the doctor Marcel, it will get to a time where that strategy will drip working on her. She was so deep in her thoughts that she didn¡¯t notice Sebastian walk in. ¡°What are you thinking about?¡± His voice rang in her ears, as she turned instantly to face him. ¡°You¡¯re here..¡± she eximed, ¡°Hmm, hmm, what were you thinking about?¡± He asked again, as he held her both hands. ¡°Nothing serious, I was just thinking about Logan, I just hope today¡¯s judgement is on his favor¡­¡± she lied, ¡°You shouldn¡¯t worry about anything Adia, but just Incase, nothing is going to happen to Logan, I¡¯ll make sure if that..¡± he promised her, ¡°I hope so..¡± she exhaled deeply, ¡°Are you ready?¡± He asked as she shook her head. ¡°Alright,e along now, you don¡¯t want to bete..¡±. ..ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org . .. ¡­. Adia found herself sitting beside Sebastian in a very big hall, with just a few people present, scary looking men and women who she suspected to be the elders, and a few people she has never met before, then Logan, who was bound to chains in a corner, probably waiting for whatever judgement that might befall him. ¡°So this is the girl huh..¡± a man sucked his teeth staring intently at Adia from head to toe. ¡°I must say the rumors are true, she does look like your daughter, Naomie..¡± he said shaking his head meaningfully. ¡°You¡¯re scaring her Elias Montenero..¡± Sebastian spat, ring dangerously at the man who just spoke to Adia. ¡°Well she should be, besides she¡¯s amongst the most powerful creatures on earth¡­¡± he remarked shoulders eyes, as Adia immediately concluded that this one must be the proud one, and did she just hear Montenero, then he¡¯s Kate¡¯s father, like father like daughter. ¡°I don¡¯t think you should count yourself as one, you¡¯re getting old you know..¡± Sebastian said softly, giving him a challenging look. ¡°Hey..¡± Elias red up but was held back be his wife. ¡°That¡¯s enough,¡± Ernestine chimed in stopping Elias before time, or else a fight will break out. ¡°Watch your tongue boy..¡± Elias warned. ¡°Make me..¡± Sebastian challenged as Elias red at him. ¡°That¡¯s enough you both, and you Elias, why argue with a child, you¡¯re bigger than that..¡± Regis chimed in. ¡°Whatever..¡± Elias scoffed, ¡°We should focus on what brought us here today, we don¡¯t have all day to waste you know..¡± Eugene Yannick stated. ¡°Look Eugene, there¡¯s nothing to talk about, we all know it¡¯s against the rules to kill a vampire, and that scoundrel over there, murdered me daughter, so waste no more time and pass the judgement of his execution..¡± he bbed as Adia stared at him, he must be a very hard one to deal with. ¡°That¡¯s where you¡¯re wrong Elias..¡± Celeste began, ¡°You¡¯ve spoiled your daughter so much, that you¡¯re blinded by the things she did..¡± Celeste spat, ¡°And who are you to say that, you rebellious son over here is no different, or have you forgotten how he murdered thousands all because of a mere woman, so weak..¡± Elias scoffed distastefully as Sebastian clenched his fist tight, feeling the need to go over there and punch his teeth out of his mouth. ¡°It¡¯s okay, just ignore his foolishness..¡± Adia whispered to Sebastian, cing her hands on his. ¡°What did you say?¡± Elias snapped at Adia, his eyes zing saddles, as he bared his fangs at her. ¡°I didn¡¯t mean to be rude at all because I know I¡¯m supposed to respect all of you here, as the elders you are, but I think sir, you¡¯re acting a little bit too much, you¡¯ve been taking non-stop since we all came here, and it¡¯s all unreasonable¡­¡± she concluded, holding Sebastian¡¯s hands tight, in fear that he might attack her. ¡°What did you just say?¡± Elias asked charging at Adia. ¡°Enough Elias, you don¡¯t threaten a woman like that, look at her condition, show some respect at least, it¡¯s not as if she¡¯s wrong..¡± Naomie defended, ¡°Speaking about what brings us here, I think you should let Logan go..¡± Naomie voiced out. ¡°We all know Kate and Aisling we¡¯re best of friends, abd how Aisling was with Sebastian at that time, and that Kate loves Sebastian so much, or rather was blindly obsessed with me, that aside, I have proof that your daughter Kate killed Aisling..¡± she revealed, but none of the elders looked shocked, they already knew what she was capable of. ¡°Me too I have proof that Kate killed Aisling..¡± Celeste chimed in, she has being able to gather proof for the past few days. ¡°And how does that amount to this?¡± Elias questioned, ¡°The issue of Aisling does not concern the issue of now, you should have brought that up the moment you lost your daughter..¡± he spat scornfully, ¡°What has happened has happened Elias, but I cannot allow make a mistake, what Logan did was out of self defense..¡± Celeste began, ¡°Apparently killing, Aisling was not enough for Kate, then she proceeded to try and kill Adia, not just Adia, the future heirs of Huntersville, she took one life and tried taking three lives again..¡± ¡°Logan just did what he did to save Adia, and trust me I would have done same, if I were in his shoes, your daughter tried killing a pregnant woman, not once but thrice, we a already know what Adia¡¯s situation is at the moment, but your darling Kate wanted to add more problems as there already is..¡± she said, calling the name Kate with utter scarcam. ¡°The first time she kidnapped Adia, and tried killing her using all sorts of different methods, then she kidnapped her yet again, and poisoned her along with her unborn babies, so tell me my fellow elders, does that kind of person deserve to live?¡± Celeste asked, ¡°I¡¯ve said all I can say, and I have solid proof with me, the only we can do is for us to vote, whatever the results are, we abide by it..¡± she concluded, taking her seat. ¡°And I say Logan lives, since he has never being a threat..¡± ¡°Me too, Logan lives..¡± Naomie supported as she turned to face her husband. ¡°What can I say..¡± Regis shurgged his shoulders. ¡°The evidence is here, I guess he does not deserve to die..¡± ¡°Me too¡± Delphine chimed in, ¡°What he did was just an act of bravery, if it was my sister inw that was being tortured that way, I wouldn¡¯t hesitate to kill her, but yet again, something like this will not be condoned next time, innocent or not, before you act rashly, we the elders deserve to have a say..¡± Delphine stated, ¡°Logan lives..¡± ¡°He¡¯s free¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­.¡± 151 ¡°I must confess, for a split second, I thought you were a badass, look at the way you spoke..¡± Adia said to Celeste, smiling widely, the trial had ended, and it ended in their favor. Logan Is finally free and will not be killed, she cannot express how happy she is right now, that everything worked in their favor. ¡°Oh please, stop ttering me..¡± Celeste waved her off jokingly. ¡°I¡¯m not, I¡¯m serious mother, I really loved how you stood up to Elias, I mean that man is so rude, and thinks too highly of himself..¡±Adia said out loud she developed a dislike for him, the moment he began talking. ¡°That¡¯s why you have to avoid Elias¡¯s trouble..¡± Celeste remarked, ¡°Where¡¯s Logan?¡± Adia questioned, looking around the house, since they arrived, he just disappeared. ¡°He must have probably gone to feed..¡± Celeste informed as Adia shook her head, he needs to refresh himself, and bounce back to his normal self ¡°Speak of the devil..¡± Celeste stated, seeing Logan walk into the sitting room. ¡°Logan..¡± Adia eximed running over to hug him, feeling so delighted to see him, she was so happy when the elders dered him free, finally she can have a peace of mind. ¡°How are you doing Adia?¡± He asked, as they both disengaged from the hug. ¡°Great as you can see, I¡¯m doing very good, and I¡¯m sure you¡¯re better too..¡± replied Adia, as she scanned him, he¡¯s looking more handsome than thest time they met in the dungeon, he has probably gone to feed to his heart¡¯s content. ¡°That¡¯s because of you Adia¡­¡± he said smiling at her, she yed a huge role in getting him released, if not for her Sebastian wouldn¡¯t have bothered to even help him. ¡°Having a family reunion without me..¡± a deep scary voice, sounded as they all turned simultaneously, to the direction the noise came from. Adia squinted her eyes, as she saw the bulky man standing there, not only was he bulky and huge, he also had this terrifying Aura around him, he beared a striking resemnce to Sebastian and his brothers, the same eye color and hair, he almost looked like their father, or probably another brother. ¡°Father..¡± Logan muttered as Adia¡¯s eyes widened, as she heard what he said, so her guess was right after all, he is their father. ¡°Moreau..¡± Celeste called stepping out, shocked to see him as well, even Logan, equally had a shocked expression on his face. ¡°What? Why are you all so surprised to see me?¡± He asked, climbing down the steps, ¡°Because you¡¯ve been away for five years, why return all of a sudden?¡± Celeste brows furrowed as he got to where they stood. *Aren¡¯t I allowed toe back to my family?¡± He raised a brow at her, as his eyes traveled to Adia, who flinched the moment their eyes met. ¡°And you must be Adia?¡± He questioned, staring at her from head to toe. ¡°Yes she is..¡± replied Celeste, going to hold Adia. ¡°And don¡¯t scare her with that look of yours..¡± she added, ¡°What look?¡± ¡°Look, dear, don¡¯t have a bad impression of me, don¡¯t mind what my wife says, I¡¯m the best father-inw you can ever find..¡± a smile ghosted his face, which was soon reced by a stern look. ¡°Moreau..¡± he extended his hands of a handshake, which Adia hesitatingly epted, as her little hands shook in hisrge ones. ¡°No need to be scared, Adia, we can get along quite well..¡± he said, feeling her shaky hands. ¡°I guess Sebastian must be here also, if his lovely Adia is here..¡± Moreau questioned in a domineering tone as he looked around the house, ¡°How much I¡¯ve missed this ce,..¡± he signed, ¡°No one forced you out¡­¡± Celeste chimed in, ¡°True, and now I¡¯vee, where are my boys, I heard they¡¯re all here, in britaris, Logan, where are your brothers, in fact let everyone know that the head of the family is here..¡± he announced in a loud tone, as a sly smile crossed his face, while he sat leisurely. Adia just stood quietly stealing nces at him, something felt eerie about him, the fact he acted warm to her, doesn¡¯t mean she¡¯s not scared of him, this man literally scares her a lot. ¡°Moreau..¡± she heard a voice, which she quickly recognized as Sebastian, as she turned to see her husband approaching with a frown on his face. ¡°And if it¡¯s not the rebellious son..¡± Moreau remarked with a wide smile on his face. ¡°What are you doing here?¡± Sebastian asked, approaching them. ¡°I think you have forgotten that this is my house, I cane in and go out anytime I want..¡± he replied scornfully. ¡°I thought you wanted to ghost everyone?¡± ¡°I changed my mind, I came to spend some quality time with my daughter inw..¡± he deadpanned his eyes, travelling to the direction Adia stood. ¡°Don¡¯t you dare do anything stupid, or even think of hurting her..¡± Sebastian warned sternly, ¡°You really think of me as a bad father, right..¡± he asked, pursing his lips . ¡°And that¡¯s what you are¡­¡± Sebastian spat. ¡°I have nothing to say to you son, other than I¡¯m d that you¡¯ll be a father soon, you should get to experience fatherhood yourself..¡± he said calmly, ¡°That aside I won¡¯t hurt her, I like her..¡± he assured.Content bel0ngs to N?vel(D)r/a/ma.Org. ¡°That¡¯s your problem, if you like her or not..¡± Sebastian stated. ¡°Where are my lovely twins?¡± He queried, ¡°I¡¯m yet to see them, as I¡¯d love to have my whole family present..¡± he remarked, ¡°Ace is out, Arion is in Orleans..¡± replied Celeste, ¡°Searching for a witch I presume..¡± he reasoned, ¡°Tell Arion to return to Britaris tomorrow, before dawn..¡± he ordered in a stern voice, as Adia felt chills on her skin. ¡°As you already know he¡¯s busy, and won¡¯t being back soon..¡± Sebastian informed, ¡°I know, but I want him to return tomorrow, before dawn..¡± he deadpanned in a serious tone. ¡°And what if he doesn¡¯t?¡± Sebastian challenged, ¡°You know better than to annoy me son¡­¡± ¡°I want Arion here tomorrow, or there¡¯s going to be a bloodbath in Orleans, who knows you might lose your precious witches along the line..¡± He threatened, as Adia gulped loudly, from the way he sounded, she could tell he meant no joke, and Sebastian seemed to have bought his threats, but why does Moreau want Arion back?? ¡­¡­ Hello my lovely readers, hope you¡¯ve been enjoying this book so far, feel free to drop yourments and thoughts about this book and don¡¯t forget to vote please.

LOVE AUTHOR BLU~VEE. 152 Eloise sat quietly on a chair, looking outside the window, as she watched the tiny stters of water, falling from the zinc, the night was dark and cold and it was drizzling outside. She looked around the room, and noticed Arion lying on the couch, sleeping. This is the first time she has seen him sleep, since the first time she met. She wondered what he wanted so badly, that¡¯s he¡¯s searching so hard for a witch, something he¡¯s never going to find easily, there¡¯s no way he will ever get one. Feeling the cold chills on her skin, she sat up from the chair she was seating on, as she walked towards the couch Arion was sleeping on, he looked so peaceful while he slept and handsome, over the few days she¡¯s spent with him, she hase to know that he¡¯s a very distant person, and act as if he doesn¡¯t care, when the truth is he really cared about someone. She involuntarily squatted in front of him, as she watched his peaceful and calm face. Eloise hade to realize that she felt a special attraction towards him, and she¡¯s beginning to like him very much. Her hands slowly moved, to push away the strands of golden hair from his face revealing his handsome face, she stared at his face for what almost felt like eternity, as she didn¡¯t want to look away from him, then her eyes settled in his lip, those red lips of his looked very inviting that she soon found herself leaning towards him to kiss him. ¡°What are you doing?¡± A low growl sounded in her ears, just when her lips was a few meters away from him, ¡°Huh..¡± she froze, wondering if she heard him right, his eyes were still closed and he was still sleeping, but her ears did not fail her, it was his voice that she heard. ¡°That¡¯s a very bold step, red haired..¡± a low dry voice vibrated from his chest as Eloise found herself trembling, his eyes still closed. Instead of her pulling away, she found herself, not being able to move, her eyes still on his lips, she badly wanted to know what those red lips would taste like. Her curiosity got the best of her, as she soon felt his lips on her, she froze, her eyes wide open, as she realized what had happened, she didn¡¯t kiss him first, no, she could feel his arm, tightly sped around her waist, which he used in drawing her close to him, resulting in the kiss. Eloise stilled for over five minutes, not moving an inch, well she couldn¡¯t move, not when their lips were still in contact with each other, Arion himself did not move, as they both froze. Eloise, you shouldn¡¯t be doing this, a voice rang in her head, ¡°Snap out of it..¡± she muttered against his lips, as she tried leaving, but his hold around her waist was too strong, she removed her lips from his, lifting her head a little, he was still sleeping, or looked like one who was sleeping. ¡°Arion..¡± she called in almost a whisper tapping his shoulder, the only way to get out of this, is to wake him up, ¡°Ar..¡± she was about to call him again when his eyes flew open. He opened his eyes wide, staring at her green eyes, which seemed to glow in the dark, he suddenly pushed her away from him, as he sat up quickly. ¡°What happ..¡± he was interrupted by a call, as he looked up at the screen only to see Sebastian written on it. ¡°What is the problem?¡± He questioned the moment he picked the call up. ¡°Moreau is back..¡± Sebastian informed, ¡°Good for him..¡± Arion said with an uninterested look on his face. ¡°How far have you gone?¡± Sebastian asked, ¡°One percent, it¡¯s as if the witches are purposely hiding themselves from me..¡± he informed as Eloise lifted her gaze up the moment he said that. ¡°Come back home..¡± Sebastian stated after hesitating a bit. ¡°Why?¡± Arion asked with furrowed brows. ¡°Moreau wants everyone back..¡± ¡°That¡¯s his problem¡­¡± Arion said, rolling his eyes, like he cared less. ¡°You have to be here, before dawn, he promised to turn the whole of Orleans into a bloodbath if you don¡¯t return..¡± ¡°And you¡¯re just going to buy that?¡± ¡°You know how Moreau is, we can¡¯t act rashly,e back first, I already have something else in mind, see you soon brother..¡± Sebastian fared, disconnecting the call. Arion sat up from the chair as his jaw worked, Sebastian¡¯s was right, he has toe back, Moreau doesn¡¯t make empty promises, he¡¯ll definitely eliminate the people of Orleans if he wants to and for a very stupid reason. ¡°Is Anything the problem?¡± Eloise asked, seeing his tensed state. ¡°Yes..¡± came his short reply. ¡°What is it?¡± Questioned Eloise as she stood up on her feet. ¡°Go home tomorrow..¡± he voiced out. ¡°Why?¡± She couldn¡¯t help but ask. ¡°Because I¡¯m returning to mine, so we have to go out separate ways..¡± he informed as Eloise froze. ¡°I¡¯lle with you..¡± she said out loud as Arion chuckled. ¡°I don¡¯t think you heard right, I¡¯m returning home, when I say home I meant britaris, the city for Vampires..¡± ¡°I don¡¯t care, I want toe with you..¡± she said standing her ground. ¡°Youing with me is like sacrificing yourself, you¡¯re only going to be someone¡¯s meal¡± ¡°You know that won¡¯t happen, because you won¡¯t allow it, so please just take me with you..¡± she pleaded. ¡°Aren¡¯t you scared of me?¡± He asked her out of the blue. ¡°No,¡± she replied. ¡°Why are you following me?¡± He raised a brow at her, as she pursed her lips. ¡°Because I like you, and I want to be with you..¡± ¡°Go be with your family girl..¡± he scoffed, ¡°No, I prefer to be with you..¡± she said standing her ground. ¡°Alright pack up, but I¡¯m not going to be responsible if you turn into someone¡¯s meal..¡± he voiced out as Eloise shook her head, she knows he¡¯s never going to allow that. ¡°By the way, why are you leaving so soon, you¡¯ve not yet found what you want?¡± She asked curiously, why did he have to change his mind all of a sudden. ¡°I¡¯m being called home..¡±ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org . ¡°What do you even need a wish for?¡± Eloise queried, he¡¯s been somewhat obsessed in finding one. ¡°Because a person¡¯s life is at stake here..¡± he replied as Eloise froze. ¡­¡­ Hello my lovely readers, hope you¡¯ve been enjoying this book so far, feel free to drop yourments and thoughts about this book and don¡¯t forget to vote please.

XoxoAUTHOR BLU~VEE. 153 Silence reigned, as Eloise thought hard for a very long time, she had thought for the first time, that he must have had some ulterior motives, who knew he was searching this hard, just to try and save a person¡¯s life. ¡°Which person¡¯s life are you trying to save¡± she questioned, ¡°Adia..¡± he replied as Eloise stilled, so he even has a woman in his life, the one he has been trying desperately to save. ¡°Adia?¡± She questioned repeating what he had said. ¡°Yes, she¡¯s my brother¡¯s wife and she¡¯s pregnant..¡± ¡°I see..¡± Eloise hummed meaningfully, as relief involuntarily washed through amher, whoever the Adia was, was not a woman in his life, she¡¯s his brother¡¯s wife, but why do they need to save her, and why is she dying. ¡°She¡¯s human, and I¡¯m sure you must know by now, that humans can¡¯t bear vampire children..¡± he exined, as realization struck her, it¡¯s true human were not allowed to hear vampire children, it will be a force to nature, as hybrid babies are considered invariably strong, not only that the humans loses their life, she no one should definitely make that kind of mistake. ¡°Why did she, you know..¡±she stammered looking for how to present her question, she can¡¯t possibly ask why they still went ahead and married when they were both aware of the dire consequences, not only that they also did what couples normally do. ¡°It just happened¡­¡± Arion spoke out as if reading her thoughts. ¡°Oh..¡± she gasped, ¡°It was all an ident, so my brother has no choice than to marry her, and look for how to keep her alive, but I guess that¡¯s not going to be possible anymore¡­¡± he stated, wondering why Moreau would want him to return all of a sudden, and why did Moreau even appear out of nowhere. ¡°Why are you so certain a witch can help, I mean .¡± She stammered, he looks so certain that a witch might be the answer to his problems, ¡°Because I know they are, I saw a vision of them, and though the witches were sent into extinction, there¡¯s a certain witch family that are still alive¡­¡± he exined as Eloise froze on the spot, what does he know?¡± She asked herself rmingly. ¡°The Fey¡¯s sisters are still alive somewhere, ¡± he concluded, as Eloise inhaled sharply ¡°Pack up, we¡¯ll be leaving in five..¡± he announced, getting up on his feet walking away. .. .. .. Eloise climbed down the helicopter, following behind Arion slowly, they had arrived in britaris. She¡¯s heard a lot about this ce, but never did she expect it to be this beautiful and calm, but a split second, she had expected it to be a ce that rained blood. ¡°Your home..¡± she questioned, pointing at a big mansion, that settled on top of a mountain, infact, they were on top of a mountain. ¡°Yes¡­¡± he replied, ¡°Your home is beautiful..¡± she admired, but he didn¡¯t give her a response, as he walked on. She heard before that seven elders ruled britaris, so she was beginning to suspect Arion, belonging to one of the families, he has never told her anything about himself or even his family, in fact the only thing she knows about him, is that he has a brother and a sister Inw who¡¯s trying to find a witch to save. ¡°The huge door sprang open, revealing the face of a beautiful woman, who seemed to be waiting for them, in fact she was not the only one waiting, a man was standing behind her, who almost had a striking resemnce to Arion, who she presumed must be his brother. ¡°Arion¡­¡± she called cheerfully, her face beaming with smiles as she stretched her hand for a hug, which he savagely refused. ¡°You haven¡¯t changed a bit..¡± the woman, frowned as Eloise wondered who she might be, ¡°Let him mother, you act as if you don¡¯t know your son¡­¡± the man standing behind the woman smiled mischievously as Arion ignored the both of them. ¡°Where¡¯s Moreau?¡± He questioned, ¡°Chill brother, it¡¯s not as if you can tear this ce down..¡± the man¡¯s lips curved up, as Eloise took a second nce at him, so they¡¯re brothers, that¡¯s exins the striking resemnce between them, and the woman is his mother, she looks so young, calm and kind. ¡°You know I can do that if I have to..¡± Arion hissed. ¡°Wee back son¡­¡± Celeste said softly, he didn¡¯t even say goodbye when he was leaving and just left. ¡°Where¡¯s Sebastian?¡± He questioned, ¡°Out with his wife, they¡¯ll be back soon, though..¡± Ace replied, as his gaze flew to Eloise. ¡°How uncultured of you brother¡­¡± he sucked his teeth walking up to Eloise. ¡°How can you leave a woman all by herself, unattended to?¡± He pointed out, shaking his head distastefully. ¡°Look mother, he brought a woman¡­¡± Ace announced, holding Eloise by her shoulders, as he led her into the house, she had been standing outside, a few meters away. ¡°What a rare sight, red haired and green eyes..¡± Ace observed pointing out her appearance. ¡°My name is Ace, your boyfriend¡¯s brother, infact twin brother¡­¡± he introduced, as Eloise¡¯s face wore a state of shock, so Arion is a twin. ¡°Don¡¯t be shocked hun, I can¡¯t believe we shared a womb also..¡± he teased, as Eloise giggled, there was a difference between them, by the way, aside from the look, they both had different personalities. ¡°This is my mother¡­¡± he pointed at Celeste, who smiled warmly at her. ¡°Wee dear..¡± Celeste began, finding it hard to believe that Arion brought a woman. ¡°I can¡¯t believe that Arion¡­¡± ¡°She¡¯s not my girlfriend¡­¡± Arion interrupted, ¡°She¡¯s just a friend..¡± he stated, ¡°Ask the maids to prepare a room for her and make herfortable..¡± he said, turning to face the door, as Celeste questioned him with a puzzled look on her face. ¡°Where are you going?¡± ¡°I have to take care of something, I¡¯ll be back soon¡­¡± with that he leaped away leaving Eloise, his brother and mother. ¡°What¡¯s your name dear?¡± Celeste asked with a grim expression on her face, the youngdy before her was so familiar, very, very familiar, her presence rang in a bell, she reminded her of someone. ¡°Eloise¡­¡± Eloise replied sheepishly, the way Celeste stared at her made her feel ufortable. ¡°You¡¯re scaring her mother..¡± Ace said softly, knowing his mother might have sensed something, but it¡¯s not right to behave that way in front of her, especially when she¡¯s human.Content bel0ngs to N?vel(D)r/a/ma.Org. ¡°Come on, I¡¯ll give you a tour round the house..¡± Ace offered dragging her away leaving Celeste there, as Celeste kept staring at her fading silhouette, the girl looked so familiar. 154 STARFISH Eloise threw herself on the bed like a starfish, as she thought about all that has been going on in her lifetely, infact, a lot has been going on, never did she expect that she¡¯ll one day be here in britaris, or even find herself liking a vampire, she¡¯s been getting attached to Ariontely, though he doesn¡¯t look her in that way, she still felt some admiration towards him. And the vampires here, weren¡¯t what she expected them to be, vampires are feral creatures, but the ones here, where she was currently living, were all totally different from what she had expected, they were all nice and easy going, the ones she has met did far were all kind to her, though she¡¯s yet to meet some certain people, like Arion¡¯s father, and his elder brother, neither has she met his wife, the one they¡¯re supposedly trying to find a witch for. .. .. .. ¡°I thought we were talking about something, Seb, where are you going?¡± Adia questioned as Sebastian turned his back to leave. ¡°I have somewhere to be..¡± he replied, ¡°Then you¡¯re just going to leave here..¡± she spelled out, giving him a questioning gaze. ¡°What do you want me to do Adia, you have refused toe with me, so take your time, I¡¯ll send Malcolm in the evening toe pick you up, have fun¡­¡± he said taking a step forward, they were currently at his house, the one he has brought her to before, and they ended up having an argument. ¡°Have fun¡­¡± Adia repeated sarcastically. ¡°Not another step from you Sebastian hunters¡­¡± she warned but he didn¡¯t listen to her, as he continued walking on. ¡°Come back here Sebastian..¡± she yelled after him, but it seems as if he was not going to stop, she must have really made him angry then. ¡°Not another step from you..¡± she shouted at the top of her voice, running after him, ¡°I¡¯ll never talk to you again if you leave¡­¡± she threatened, ¡°I¡¯ll never return to Britaris..¡± she added another threat, but he didn¡¯t even bulge, or even bother to turn. ¡°Sebastian!!!!¡± She yelled, throwing herself on the ground. Sebastian stilled as he perceived the faint smell of blood in the air, as he instantly turned, did she hurt herself?, He asked himself, as he saw her sitted on the ground, he leaped stopping in front of her with a frown on his face. ¡°Seriously Adia, are you going to keep doing this?¡± He questioned, ¡°Doing what?¡± She snapped at him, she knew he¡¯d definitelye back, there was no way he¡¯d leave her. ¡°Acting like a child..¡± he said softly, squatting in front of her, as he held her hand up, taking a look at her elbow, which had a small scratch. ¡°Why did you have to hurt yourself?¡± He asked her softly, ¡°Because you refused to pay attention to me, why¡¯d you have to do that?¡± She pouted, she only wanted to talk, but then he began to shut her up, saying he didn¡¯t want to hear any of the things she had to say. ¡°You act like a nuisance..¡± came his honest reply, as Adia red at him. ¡°Let me go..¡± she said, snapping her hands away from him. ¡°I¡¯ll go home by myself, have fun¡­¡± she rolled her eyes, looking away from him. How dare him call her a nuisance. ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll listen to you, what do you want to say?¡± He finally gave in, knowing the kind of person she is, this argument will go on for as long as she wants it, especially if things don¡¯t go her way. ¡°Let¡¯s make our contract void..¡± she said out loud, as Sebastian pursed his lips on thought. ¡°What contract?¡± He questioned, ¡°You seemed to have forgotten how we got to where we are today, we had a contract marriage, so I want that annulled¡­¡± he voiced out her thoughts, there were lots of things, she¡¯ll need to work on if she was really going to die, a whole lots of things. ¡°Adia that..¡± Sebastian began, but paused almost immediately. ¡°We don¡¯t have to do that..¡± ¡°Why?¡± ¡°Because I¡¯m going to make sure you live, even if it¡¯s thest thing I do, and then I¡¯ll let you go..¡± he phased out sitting on the ground with her, which was covered with grass. ¡°Here we go again with letting me go..¡± she grunted as her shoulders fell. ¡°I¡¯m not going to leave you Seb, if anything goes in our favor, I¡¯m not going to leave you, how do you expect me to be fine when I know I have kids elsewhere, kids, who I¡¯ve suffered so much for, I¡¯ll never be able to live with that Seb, I can¡¯t even live without you, as it is now, and you want to just let me go¡­¡± she scoffed in disbelief. ¡°I¡¯ll renew the contract, we can change things, you can see your children, once every month, how about that.. ¡± he suggested, as Adia scoffed.All content is ? N0velDrama.Org. ¡°You¡¯re so unserious Seb, I can¡¯t believe this..¡± she said angrily, getting up on her feet. ¡°Let me see them once In a month..¡± ¡°You¡¯re so impossible, fuck you, I¡¯m out of here, and don¡¯t even think about following me..¡± she warned turning to leave, how can he say something like that?, Have everything they¡¯ve had together been a joke to him?, That he can just easily say that out of his mouth, something so hurtful, how could he even think of wanting to let her go, he even ns on renewing the contract, to hell with him, of she ever survives this, and he ends up letting her go, she¡¯ll make sure to leave with her babies and disappear forever, he¡¯s never going to see her again , never ever. How does he think she¡¯s going to feel if her babies are not raised by her, but another woman, to hell with him, Adia thought angrily, stomping her feet as she left. ¡°Adia..¡± Sebastian called but she didn¡¯t even bother to stop, now she¡¯s the one walking away. ¡°I¡¯m not letting you because I don¡¯t like you¡­¡± he said after her, as her feet stilled, staying rooted to the group. ¡°I¡¯m letting you go, because I don¡¯t want to get hurt.. ¡± ¡­¡­ Hello my lovely readers, hope you¡¯ve been enjoying this book so far, feel free to drop yourments and thoughts about this book and don¡¯t forget to vote please.

They¡¯re also vampires aren¡¯t they?, Think knuckleheads, think¡­¡± she concluded breathlessly, as everyone pursed their lips. What she said actually made a little sense, ¡°So you are trying to say that Adia¡¯s babies have been dying from the start?¡± Questioned Sebastian, ¡°Exactly¡­¡± ¡°And that¡¯s because they fed from her, so her blood is indirectly killing them?¡± ¡°True..¡± replied Esmee, nodding her head. ¡°Bloody hell¡­¡± Sebastian cursed, punching the nearby wall which left a hole there, that¡¯s why the heartbeats were bing faint, he has failed to reason that far. ¡°Seb¡­¡± Adia called as her voice wavered, ¡°Is she telling the truth?¡± She spluttered, ¡°Yes¡­¡± came his curt reply, and Adia shoulders fell, she couldn¡¯t believe her ears, everything¡¯s happening so fast, and lots of things are unfolding before her eyes, who would have thought that her babies were dying all this while, and that no one is going toe out alive, her only hope now are the witches, and Esmee doesn¡¯t even look like someone who would ever agree to help. ¡°And why are you so certain of what you¡¯re saying?¡± Arion questioned, she¡¯s been talking as if she¡¯s lived with them for a very long time. ¡°How do you know all these things about Adia?¡± He asked again, he hated her confidence to the core, amongst all the La Fey¡¯s sisters, Esmee was the most annoying of them all, and he really wanted to snap her neck in two. ¡°Because I know¡­¡±came her nonchnt reply, ¡°I know everything, even before you even knew, you know why?¡± She raised a brow at them. ¡°Because I made it so?¡± She said slyly, wearing an interesting look on her face. ¡­¡­ Hello my lovely readers, hope you¡¯ve been enjoying this book so far, feel free to drop yourments and thoughts about this book and don¡¯t forget to vote please.

XOXO AUTHOR BLU~VEE. 162 Esmee has always hated vampires to the core, she never had a single liking for them, neither will she ever, she wouldn¡¯t even think o f saving one. ¡°You vampires act all smart, thinking you owm the world, but guess what I¡¯m one step ahead of you all¡­¡± she uttered with s smirk on her face. ¡°I¡¯m pretty sure none of you know how Adia came about, well I know that, I know the answer to all the mysteries surrounding her, because I made it so¡­¡± she concluded confidently. Sebastian took a long look at Esmee, as he came to a conclusion, there¡¯s nothing that¡¯s he¡¯s going to tell her or do, that will make her and her sister change her mind, but he had finally found a way, or rather is going to negotiate with her. ¡°You¡¯re going to tell us everything we need to know and perform the spell¡­¡± Sebastian spoke out as Esmee smiled. ¡°And how?¡± ¡°There¡¯s no way you can force me, I¡¯d rather die¡­¡± she said with a serious expression, ¡°I¡¯m not forcing you witch, I¡¯m negotiating with you¡­¡± ¡°There¡¯s nothing that you can ever have to offer that can make us change our mind¡­¡± Elise spoke,ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org . ¡°Well there is..¡± Sebastian lips curled up, he knows exactly where to get these persky witches. ¡°In exchange for Adia¡¯s life and all we need to know, I¡¯ll give you something¡­¡± ¡°There¡¯s nothing you¡­¡± ¡°Your mother¡­¡± she spoke pit as Esmee froze, shock visibly written on her face for the first time. ¡°What did you say, my mother¡¯s dead..¡± ¡°True, but not her magic, I know how you witches love your ancestral rubbish, and would do anything to bury your loved ones yourself, I have your mother¡¯s body¡­¡± he said again, as Esmee chuckled in disbelief. ¡°You can¡¯t fool me, vampire, mt whole Vi was massacred by you vampires, killing everyone including our mother¡­¡± Esmee spat ¡°Point of correction, your mother died trying to save you and your sister, I¡¯m sure thos one¡­¡± he pointed at Eloise. ¡°Was the one she was pregnant with¡­¡± he said, ¡°Di the needful and get your mother¡¯s body¡­¡± he negotiated, he knew they¡¯ll never be able to turn down this offer, after Estelle passed on, Moreau couldn¡¯t bring himself to allow her body, gert burnt along the other witches, so he brought her here to britaris, and buried her right in Huntersville, In fact, her grave was located in the house, in the garden area. ¡°You vampires are really tricky¡­¡± Elise pursed her lips. ¡°I ept the deal¡­¡± she suddenly said, ¡°Elise don¡¯t tell me you bought that¡± Esmee trued protesting, ¡°This is mother we¡¯re talking about Esmee, we need to bring our ego down and oay ourst respect¡­¡± Elise exined, as Eloise was beyond happy, but will Esmee ever agree. ¡°That was too easy Elise¡­¡± ¡°What if they¡¯re fooling you, huh?, What will you do then?¡± Esmee questioned, ¡°I¡¯ll kill Adia with my own hands¡­¡± Elise stated with a murderous glint in her eyes. ¡°It¡¯s a deal then..¡± Sebastian¡¯s voice rang in the sitting room. ¡°Start talking¡­¡± he said to Elise. ¡°She will, you can take your seats, it¡¯s a pretty long story, so listen and get lost forever out of our lives¡± Esmee spat, throwing herself on one of the chairs. ¡°It all began thirty years ago¡­.¡± Elise began, ¡°When we were just released from where our mother kept us with a spell, the world was very strange and new to us then, but thankfully, the spell never stopped our growth, we came out as teenagers, we found it very hard to survive in a new and strange world, we had to idea on what to do, how tomunicate, and the worst part of it all was that we found ourself in wartz, a ce not to far from here britaris ¡± ¡°Surviving was a very hard thing for us, wartz is a very dangerous ce, you all must know how dangerous it is, we became scavengers overnight, looking for means and ways to adapt, fighting for our lives, that¡¯s when we met her¡­¡± Elise paused reminiscing on the good old Days. ¡°Aisling..¡± Sebastian murmured, ¡°She was like a dream ce through for us, an Angel sent down from heaven, at first we were scared because she was a vampire, but she gave us no reason to be scared of her, but instead thought us things on how the world worked, gave us shelter, clothing, food, gave us the love and care we needed despite us being witches, she also kept our secret, and told no one about our existence..¡± ¡°Aisling was our best friend, she was my best friend, she was like a sister to us, the only thing we could ever asked for, she helped us settle down in the human world, told us how to fight back a vampire, their weaknesses and all, she trusted us, we trusted her, but then¡­¡± Elise stammered as a tear tickled down her face. ¡°Our happiness came to an abrupt end..¡± she wiped the tears from her face, ¡°Aisling was not supposed to die, and I hate myself till date that I could do nothing to save her¡­¡± she spluttered, ¡°The worst part of them all is that a vampire killed her..¡± Esmee chimed in angrily, ¡°You vampires are the worst form of evil ever, how can you snitch on your own friend, all because of a man..¡± Esmee scoffed as her eyes settled on Sebastian. ¡°She loved you, and was ready to give her life for you, but that heartless friend of hers took her away, in the most painful and excruciating way one can ever imagine..¡± Esmee smiled wryly biting her lips. ¡°Just say what happened and stop putting the me on someone, Kate is dead..¡± Arion chimed in, ¡°And how does all these connect to Adia?¡± He questioned curiously, ¡°We¡¯re about to get there vampire¡­¡± Esmee rolled her eyes at Arion who threw deadly res at her, while Eloise just stood quietly, Aisling was definitely an angel to her. ¡­ .. ..

XOXO AUTHOR BLU~VEE. 163 ¡°For so long, no one knew about our existence, not even the man she loved and would give anything for¡­¡± Elise paused, as her eyes settled on Sebastian. ¡°It was the day before your birthday, on July 26th 1996, she came to us, telling I and Esmee to apany her to wartz..¡± ¡°I objected of course, because wartz was a very dangerous ce to be, but Aisling begged, saying she needed to get a diamond, and make it into a beautiful gift Sebastian, she so assured us that she was bringing a friend along¡­¡± ¡°If there was one w about Aisling, it was that she trusted to much..¡± Elise stated, she thinks everyone was her friend, and she could trust everyone, that¡¯s what led to her early death. ¡°I eventually agree, and it was agreed upon that I and Esmee cast a protection spell on wartz..¡± ¡°On July 27 1996, I and Esmee waited patiently for Aisling to arrive, and finally she did, with Kate behind her, I and Elise still didn¡¯t trust the friend she was bringing along with her, so we stood at a corner to observe her, Kate also didn¡¯t know about is, Aisling wanted it toe off as a surpris..¡± ¡°Aisling was about to call out for us, when Kate suddenly poured a substance on her, so my something we suspected to be ginger water, Aisling grew weak, and Kate took advantage of that and butchered her¡± Elise choked on her words, that day was very terrifying for her, a day she would never forget. ¡°I hate myself so much for doing nothing to save my best friend, Kate won, she managed to burn Aisling body parts to ashes, and I did nothing, I just stood on fear that my identity could get exposed, but I would be a very bad friend, if I had mentioned Aisling to just die, when it was not yet her time, so I did a little spell and trapped Aisling soul, as left back for the human world. ¡°I and Esmee decided to give Aisling another chance to live, but we were running out of Time, we couldn¡¯t hold off a soul for such a long time, but luckily we found a woman who was being taken to the hospital because she had a miscarriage, we discovered her fetus was already dead, so we nted Aisling¡¯s soul in the dead fetus, that¡¯s how Adia came to life¡­¡± she confessed as silence reigned for a very long time, who would have thought that Aisling¡¯s soul has been living inside of Adia all this while, but that didn¡¯t make Adia, Aisling, they were two different people. ¡°Because Aisling was a vampire before she died, we didn¡¯t want the baby to be born a vampire, so we did a spell that made her immune to anything about vampires, that way no vampire will be able toe near her, since a vampire killed her, she was made the tool that could kill vampires..¡± she said softly, ¡°So you¡¯re saying that Aisling¡¯s soul is inside of Adia?¡± Arion questioned meaningfully, as Elise nodded, that exins it all, the looks and everything, it was the doings of the witches all along. ¡°It was like a give and take situation..¡± Elise replied, ¡°Then why did you hide it from everyone?¡± Arion asked, ¡°We don¡¯t hold any sort of a special rtionship, that I¡¯ll tell you this, you know I¡¯m still totally against all of these..¡± she snapped, vampires have always taken what she loved away from her, first were her parents, than the only friend she had managed to make. ¡°Rot in hell..¡± Arion said, removing his attention from her. ¡°Adia¡¯s case is a very serious one, and the spell that is to be used in saving her is a very strong one that by the end of the day, there might be lots of changes¡­¡± Elise began, ¡°What¡¯s that?¡± ¡°There might be a chance of the babies tapping into our magic..¡± she announced as everyone wondered what she meant. ¡°And I¡¯m not sure you vampires will be ready for that..¡± ¡°What do you mean tapping your magic?¡± Sebastian pursed his lips, as Adia held his hands tight. ¡°They might have some magic in them by the end of this all, making them Vampires that can weild magic..¡± she informed as Adia spared a nce at Sebastian, she had no idea what that was, or if it was even a good thing. ¡°We witches will also have ess to the babies just like you vampires, are you ready for that?¡± Questioned Elise, the vampires might not agree with that, but that¡¯s their problem.Content bel0ngs to N?vel(D)r/a/ma.Org. ¡°Whatever, all long as Adia lives fine by me..¡± Sebastian uttered, vampires able to weild magic, only means they¡¯ll be ten times stronger than they¡¯re supposed to be, but that can be dealt with. ¡°We¡¯ll perform the spell on the next full moon which is three days from now, I will be needing just one favour from you..¡± she began, ¡°A doctor of course, that¡¯s the oy thing you have to deal with, I¡¯ll take care of the rest¡­¡± she said, ¡°Elise is thos really necessary?¡± Esmee tried butting in, ¡°We need to see our mother Esmee, it¡¯s very important we do..¡± she whispered to her sister. ¡°The spell is a forbidden one, and can take a person¡¯s life of not careful¡­¡± she stammered, warning bells ringing in her head. ¡°Eloise will join us, and they¡¯ll take us to mother¡¯s grave, we can tap magic from her¡­¡± ¡°Seriously Elise, it¡¯s not necessary..¡± ¡°Let it be Esmee, it¡¯s a win-win, for both parties..¡± ¡°Are you okay?¡± Sebastian asked Adia, softly as she shook her head, everything is happening so fast, so they¡¯ve finally found a solution for her, and in three days time, she¡¯s finally going to see her babies. ¡°Yes I guess..¡± she replied in a croaked voice. ¡°Should we go upstairs?¡± Questioned Sebastian, as Adia shook her head, the night has been a pretty long one. ¡°Come on..¡± Sebastian beckoned as he carried her up in a bridal style leaping upstairs straight to their room. ¡­..

XOXO AUTHOR BLU~VEE. 164 Adia sat quietly as she watched Sebastian put on a shirt, no one has said a word since they came in here, as he went straight ahead to freshen up, but she¡¯s not sleeping till he tells her everything today, no more secrets. ¡°Aren¡¯t you going to bed?¡± He questioned walking up to the bed, as he sat on it also. ¡°Not feeling sleepy..¡± she yawned, fixing her eyes on his. ¡°You should get some rest..¡± he uttered, ¡°Actually I can¡¯t sleep¡­¡± she began, ¡°I¡¯m too stunned to speak Seb¡­¡± she said softly, she¡¯s not sure she¡¯ll be able to sleep tonight, she¡¯s so happy right now. ¡°There¡¯s finally a way for me..¡± she signed not removing her eyes from him, as they locked eyes with each other. ¡°I¡¯m finally going to live..¡± she said with a wide smile, kneeling up from the bed, as she crawled to the extreme end that he was seating, and she wrapped her hands around his waist. ¡°I¡¯m so happy Seb, we can finally be together forever, and we would both raise our children together..¡± she said, hoping he won¡¯t send her away at the end of it all. ¡°Me too..¡± he confessed, speaking for the first time after a very long time, ¡°Seb..¡± Adia called softly, ¡°The elders held a meeting a few days ago, what was it about?¡± She questioned curiously, it was about her and her babies, so she deserved a right to know what they had talked about. ¡°Tell me everything Seb, no more secrets..¡± ¡°Nothing serious, it seems they saw the hybrid babies as a threat, because of the immense strength they¡¯ll have once they are born¡­¡± he informed, though that has been taken care of, they had thought it happened intentionally, that he impregnated Adia by purpose, but after providing much evidence, it was finally concluded that it all had happened by pure ident. ¡°Wow!!!¡± Adia couldn¡¯t help but exim, ¡°But I think there¡¯s going to be another problem now..¡± he began, as Adia¡¯s brows furrowed, ¡°What is that?¡¯ ¡°That witch mentioned that they¡¯ll be able to wield magic, think about how powerful they¡¯ll be?¡± He exined, as Adia got what he was saying. ¡°It was not intentional, so I¡¯m sure they¡¯ll understand..¡± she said cing her head on his shoulders, today is a very happy day for her. ¡°They¡¯ll have to¡­¡± he uttered in a stern voice, the elders will have to ept this new change, he¡¯s going to have aplete family soon, and they¡¯re going to be his top priority, and responsibility, he¡¯ll do anything to protect them. ¡°I love you Seb..¡± Adia whispered lovingly in his ears, she¡¯ll always adore him. .. ¡­ .. Eloise walked along the hallways, trying to locate Arion¡¯s room, she badly needed to speak with him and rify things with him, he seemed really pissed at her earlier, and look betrayed, she paused at his door and was about to knock when she heard his voice, ¡°What are you doing here?¡± She immediately turned to see him standing behind her. ¡°Arion..¡± she called with a shaky voice. ¡°What do you want?¡± He asked again, in a cold voice and a stern expression on his face. ¡°I came to talk..¡± she began, she would be very lucky if Arion agreed to speak with her, he had earlier said that he hated liars. ¡°There¡¯s nothing to talk about, get out of my way..¡± she spat in a cold voice, the aura around him was so scary, he had this angry and terrifying look on his face. ¡°Arion I can exin..¡± ¡°Exin what?, How you fooled me?, I really can¡¯t believe that you still have the guts to appear in front of me,¡± he pursed his lips, he felt like a fool back there, he just couldn¡¯t believe that what he had been searching for, had been right In front of him, and she managed to fool him without him even suspecting her, maybe he trusted her too much, and this is the price he has to pay for that, being fooled. ¡°I had my reasons for doing what I did Arion, I swear I really wanted to tw you the truth from the start, but it was not in my power too, my sisters wouldn¡¯t give me the chance to do so, there were lots of time I had wanted to tell you..¡± she paused, staring at his eyes wide had this bored look in them, one would think that he was not listening to her at all, and all that she has been saying to him, meant nothing, but nevertheless, she¡¯ll still try, at least he allowed her stand before him. ¡°I like you Arion..¡± she confessed, he could be considered as her first love, but she really felt something very special towards him. ¡°I really do, you might think I¡¯m young, but I know my feelings well enough, please forgive me..¡± she pleaded, she really didn¡¯t want to be in his bad book, it was by chance that she ever got close to him, he could have easily left her that night to die, but he took her along with him, when he knew nothing about her, and he still brought her here to his home, in britaris, so hopefully might have a soft spot for her, and can forgive her. ¡°Let bygones be bygones, I¡¯m sorry, let¡¯s start¡­¡± ¡°Eloise..¡± her name rolled out of his tongue, as she looked at him. ¡°First of all, I¡¯ll never look at you that way¡­¡± he deadpanned in a cold tone. ¡°Secondly, don¡¯t think yourself too special because I took you along that night, I just pitied you, and my instincts told me to take you along with me, and thankfully you¡¯ve proved useful¡­¡± ¡°You¡¯re nothing special to me Eloise, and I would love if you do well to stay very far away from me, the next time youe close, I can¡¯t guarantee you your safety..¡± he concluded in a harsh tone. ¡°Get out if my way..¡± he ordered, as Eloise found her feet moving unwillingly, he walked into his room, mming the door behind him, leaving Eloise outside, Eloise stood for a very long time, disappointed at how things had turned out between them, but she¡¯s not going to give up just yet, she¡¯ll keep apologizing till he forgives her. ¡­This belongs ?

He hade to realize that life without Adia was meaningless, she was his everything. He loved her, more than himself. ¡°I love you¡± Adia mumbled leaning over to kiss him again when the door suddenly sprang open. ¡°Oops¡± Eloise mouthed as she quickly shut the door. She signed deeply, knocking on the door again. ¡°Hey Eloise¡± Adia waved her face red with embarrassment. ¡°Adia!!¡± Eloise waved sheepishly. ¡°Hi..¡± Ace had informed her earlier that Adia was awake, so she came to say hi. ¡°So you need anything?¡± Adia asked. ¡°Actually yes¡± Eloise said feeling Sebastian hard gaze on her, she just interrupted a very good moment for them. ¡°Rhea!! I mean they¡¯re awake, byeee¡± she closed the door, running away. That was a big lie, she only said that as an excuse. ¡°I have to get feed them, Seb¡± Adia announced walking over to the closet to get dressed. ¡°I¡¯ll see youter¡± she nted a kiss on his cheeks before leaving the room. 170 ¡°You¡¯re back?¡± Adia asked mumbling as she felt someone walk into the room. ¡°Hmm, hmm¡± Sebastian replied walking towards the bed and he sat beside her. ¡°I waited for you all night¡± she yawned, sitting up from the bed as he snaked his arms around her waist. ¡°I told you not to wait¡± he drew out softly. ¡°Well it was worth the wait¡± she smiled smuggling closer to him as she inhaled his nice smell, he always smells so nice. ¡°Rhys and Rhea also kept mepany, it hasn¡¯t been long since I put them to bed¡± she added. ¡°They must have tired you out¡± he said as Adia shook her head. ¡°Not at all¡± she chuckled. They keep herpany all day, when Sebastian is out. It¡¯s been two weeks with them around and she has never felt so happy andplete. ¡°Come here¡± he muttered leaning towards her and he kissed her, the kisssted for about two minutes, before Sebastian suddenly flipped and her back hit the soft bed with Sebastian on top of her. From the way he looked at her, she already knew about his kinky desires and that was why she had to admit that she was a bit nervous. But as she needed him, they were about to spend their first real night together as a couple. Adia bably wanted Sebastian, she was finding it very hard to keep her desires at control. She had already experienced how easily this man could make her feel the intense carnal desire she has never felt before. He was dangerous for her in every way already, and she knew that if she was not careful, she would never be able to get enough of him and keep on wanting him. She knew that their first time for was not really that a great of an experience for her as it was uneventful.ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org . ¡°I want you Adia¡± Sebastian says in a low growl his voiceced with sexual hunger. ¡°Me too¡± Adia confirmed stiffly, never faltering despite the heat his smoldering gaze was causing. ¡°I want you too, more than ever¡± Her voice trembled a little at the end, but she lifted her chin, not giving into her nervousness. She wanted to be bold before, not timid. His smirk had his faint dimple appearing as he regarded her with a mysterious and amused look. But Adia did not budge from her stance. She stared back at him, showing him how serious she was. ¡°I am ready, Sebastian.¡± The way she said it was as though she was ready to be sent to the gallows. Sebastian¡¯s lips curled up even more as he regarded her with much amusement. ¡°That¡¯s my wife¡± His voice sounded rough yet deliciously dark as he told her. And Adia¡¯s eyes widened at the nickname he used on her. Her heartbeat stopped for a moment and her face burned red. He slowly climbed off her, sitting at the other side of the bed as Adia wondered if he had suddenly changed his mind. ¡°Adia¡­ take that nasty nightgown off.¡± He ordered. ¡°I want youpletely bared for me.¡± This was no longer theposed Sebastian who always had a stoic expression on his face now his face reeked of sexual hunger. Without hesitation, Adia tugged on the chiffon waist tie that she had knotted into a bow and her actions bared her front to him. Just with a tiny shrug, the night gown slipped off her milky white shoulders. When the soft and gauzy fabric pooled around her ankles, her heartbeat drummed loud in her ears. His eyes slowly caressed her every curve, and she could see something intense now shing across his darkened gaze. Adia shifted ufortably as she fought the urge to dive beneath the sheets to hide herself. She could still fell his fiery gaze boring into her, following her every move. When she lifted her eyes and returned her gaze to him, he was still seated near her, his eyes gleaming in the dim light. ¡°Crawl towards me, Adia¡± His deep voice prated and reverberated straight through her. Reaching so deep within Adia that she felt like her brain fritzed out at that confident and absolutemand. The pure focus he had thrown at her as he towered over there, looking down at her, had Adia unconsciously clenching her fists into the bedsheet. But the moment she saw a spark of something mischievous and seemingly taunting in his eyes, she unclenched her fists and tipped her chin up. He was challenging her. It seemed like he did not believe that she could do this. That was how she interpreted that look in his eyes. And she did not like what she had thought his reaction would be if she did not make a move now. Surprisingly, she disliked the thought of him smirking as he told her ¡®He¡¯s right and that she¡¯s all just bravado¡¯ much more than doing what he was asking her to do right now. However, right now, she felt that this was not enough to ovee the surge of her intense desire to erase that look in his eyes. All she wanted was to go against what he was obviously expecting from her. She wanted to prove him wrong. She had already mentally prepared herself and that was maybe why she was braver than ever now. Without breaking eye contact, Adia slowly dropped on all fours. Her knees and hands dipping slightly into the plush top of the super king-sized mattress. Her heartbeat was rushing a mile a minute and she could feel her cheeks burning hot. But¡­ it seemed that this might not be as hard as she thought it would be. She was never the submissive type. Adia then began to move towards him, still refusing to be the first one to break their eye contact. Her heartbeat sounded so loud in her ears that she did not even realize just how slowly she was moving at the moment. When she saw how his eyes stretched a little as she got closer to him, a tinge of triumph rose within her. Another unexpected thing. The sight of him looking surprised was somehow enough to trigger and rise her courage to the next level. But her focus quickly shifted the moment she became aware of her breast swinging with every move she made. The shade of red on her face grew to be an even deeper tone. She paused just before she could reach him and heard how loud and fast her heartbeats were getting. Feeling the dryness on her lips caused by her hot pants, Adia licked her lips to moisten them. Looking up to him, she saw his eyes dte. She did not know how that had her continuing her incredibly slow movement. She was really surprising even herself right now. She wondered what had gotten onto her tonight. Adia stopped, finally reaching him. She tipped her chin even higher to maintain eye contact only to catch an unexpected devious glint in his eyes. That had got her already fast pulse racing even quicker. He reached out and cupped her chin, guiding her gently to kneel before him. The touch of his leather gloved hand on her chin was¡­ distracting to say the least. ¡°You just keep impressing me with how bold you are, Adia¡± He said in a husky voice, a slow grin spreading across that sinfully beautiful face of his. 171 Before Adia could ask anything, Sebastian was already continuing, ¡°My mother and my brothers are all here right now. Normally, it would only be us in this ce. To top that off, everyone obviously likes you a lot. Due to that, I won¡¯t have a choice but to force myself to tamper down on my usual style and be as gentle as I possibly can tonight. Or else¡­¡± he let go of her chin. ¡°¡­ the entire family wille at me mercilessly tomorrow. And we can¡¯t have that happening, can we?¡± Adia blinked, speechless. Her mind immediately wondered how his family would even know if he was gentle or rough with her as they did the deed. He must really like it extremely rough in bed like he had told her before, if he was this worried about his family¡¯s reaction! She forced herself to stop the urge to swallow nervously. Somehow, she was suddenly really d at her decision of not postponing tonight. ¡°But don¡¯t expect too much from me.¡± Sebastian¡¯s deep voice echoed again. ¡°I don¡¯t do gentle¡­ so my kind of gentle might not be up to your standard.¡± He looked serious as he said those words. She could see that he was trying to be as clear as day to her about everything. And his statement once again had her rxing a bit. The fact that he was even willing to try and hold back was enough to calm her frantic heartbeat a little. Though she had mentally prepared herself for a rough experience for her first time, she still would get bouts of nervousness that needed to be suppressed so that she would not chicken out at thest minute. A small smile tipped at the corner of her lips. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. You already know that I¡¯m pretty pessimistic, Sebastian. So, I am not and would not be expecting too much.¡± She shrugged her shoulders elegantly. A smile appeared in his face but only for a split second. Because in the next second, his expression had changed into something that had her heart stuttering and threatening to stop for a moment. This man could really switch gears in the blink of an eye!All text ? N?velD(r)a''ma.Org. He cupped her face again. And oh lord¡­ the feel of his hands touching her skin was electrifying. Was it just her nervousness and the atmosphere affecting and overwhelming her senses? Or was his touch really a little too hot? It was like he was burning with a fever! He possessed her lips once again as he kissed her hungrily, soon silent moans were heard in the room as Sebastian began to ravage her naked body. Adia tried very hard to keep up the stance, it felt so hot and too much to bear. He moved his lips from hers and he moved to her neck trailing hot kisses there. She felt his lips on her shoulder as his hands moved from her waist, caressing her skin until he reached her breasts. The moment he squeezed her there, a silent gasp escaped her mouth. Oh dear¡­ ¡°Your breasts are so soft yet pliable to the touch, my lovely wench.¡± He whispered huskily as he continued massaging her breasts. Sweat started to break out on her temples and forehead. And when he rolled her nipples between his pointer and his thumb, another gasp was torn from her lips as her whole frame trembled within his hold. Her eyes squeezed shut as she could not help but drop her head back on his shoulder solid and hot as hell. ¡°Yes, just like that my Adia. Rx and just let me prepare you until you¡¯re ready for me.¡± This was not what she was expecting. At all!! Oh, good lord. He was not supposed to whisper these sweet words with his erotic and deep voice while touching her with burning strokes like this. He was not supposed to¡­ Wait, what was he not supposed to do? Adia could feel herself spinning out of control as her mind somehow just could not make sense of things. Another twist on her nipples had her letting out a sharp sound. A sound she could not believe had originated from her own lips. ¡°Shh, Adia¡­¡± came his vibrating whisper as his one hand sped around her throat, tightening its hold on her slightly. It was a secure grasp but not one that caused fear or doubt. ¡°I need you to be quiet, my wife¡± ¡°That¡¯s my lovely Adia,¡± he praised when he pinched the other nipple, yet no more sharp sounds came out of her. ¡°I just love how obedient you are right now¡­¡± he murmured into her ear as she bit down harder, holding back any sounds from escaping her mouth. He trailed his tongue from the spot just below her ear, down to the dip in her shoulder. His tongue was so hot. Like liquid fire that was threatening to burn her whole. She could feel powerful muscles bunching and tightening under her ass and thighs as he continued touching her everywhere, except below her waist. She wanted him to touch her more, in there. But he only took his time and yed with her breasts with ruthless and delicious patience. ¡°Spread your legs open for me, Adia.¡± Hemanded in a deep, vibrating voice. His hand had ever-so-slowly and finally crossed below her waist and was now resting on her legs. To be specific, it was ced right on her upper thigh. His palm was so hot, it was as though a ming brand was being ced there, marking her as belonging to him. Adia found herself obeying without any struggle, wanting him to bring his fiery hand to touch her now aching ce so badly. Her face was zing red as she opened up. ¡°Wider.¡± He breathed, giving her a sharp nip on her earlobe. That almost tore another sharp sound from her mouth. ¡°Not enough. More. Yes! Just like that. Mmm¡­ That¡¯s my good and lovely wife¡­¡± he murmured words of encouragement and satisfaction when she did ording to his wishes. Normally, she would have found this appalling and demeaning even. However, what he was doing was only causing the heat to burn even hotter down there. She could feel herself getting so wet. Adia could only shut her eyes whether in embarrassment or anticipation, she did not quite know as she felt his hand trailed on the insides of her thigh. Intense anticipation gripped her as she waited for him to touch her there, where she was most sensitive. But again, he took his time, dying and making her wait, driving her crazy. But all she could do was bite down on her lip and stay docile and patient in his arms. She did not want to beg him like some desperate and wanton woman again. But oh lord¡­ this was much harder than she had ever anticipated. She had not expected for herself to be stuck in such a situation. When his fingers finally brushed across her there, Adia heard his curse rumbled low in her ear. ¡°F*ck. Look at that wet pretty c*nt¡­¡± these words left his mouth as he suddenly palmed her center. ¡°Do you know¡­ do you have any idea on just how wet you are right now? Huh? Adia?¡± She did not know what she should say. Her mind was no longer working normally as before. Her mind was blurred, and her focus was fixed on nothing else but these delicious sensations and his¡­ his hard, hot and throbbing manhood against her behind. ¡°Answer me.¡± ¡°I¡­ I d-don¡¯t know¡­¡± Was all she could stutter out withbored breaths. ¡°Fine¡­ I shall show you then.¡± He replied delightedly before starting to y with her folds, sliding his fingers up and down with sweet shallow motions. And without warning, he sunk his fingertip into her wet entrance. Adia stiffened at the invasion of his thick and blunt fingertip as she stifled a sound that he had elicited from her. ¡°Easy there¡­¡± he whispered, ¡°rx your body, Adia.¡± That coaxing deep voice was like magic that had rxed her jolted nerves. And before she knew it, she could feel nothing but pleasure as her focus was fixed to where he was touching her. Her whole universe had sharpened and was fully concentrated on that one ce. Until his finger was sliding in and out inside her in a delicious rhythm. ¡°F*ck.¡± She heard him curse again. His voice seemed to be getting more strained. And then he suddenly stopped and pulled his finger out of her. A protest was about to be torn from Adia¡¯s lips when he lifted his hand right before her face. The moisture on his finger all the way to his palm had her eyes stretching wide in embarrassment and shock. ¡°This is how f*cking wet you are right now, my lovely wife¡± He drawled and then he moved his hand towards himself. Adia turned her head over her shoulder to look what he was going to do with it only to see him putting his finger inside his mouth and wrapping those seductively sexy lips around it. ¡°F*ck.¡± He cursed after licking his finger clean. ¡°You¡¯re f*cking delicious.¡± Her lips parted and she felt like her mind fritzed out in another shock. His expression was as though he had just tasted something glorious. And what he had just said and did, as well as his expression and the look in his eyes drove spikes of something intense through her. He entered her again, impaling his finger inside her as his one arm hooked around her throat again, pinning her against him. He glided his thick and long digit in and out of her as the heel of his hand ground against her nub. His actions sent pleasures shooting through her that left her gasping and moaning helplessly as she arched and jerked around in his hold. She had thought that being restrained; it would be an unpleasant experience. However, what she was feeling so far is nothing but heavenly. Soon he added another finger to the one already effortlessly gliding in her depths. The heel of his hand moved in circles against her sensitive nub in a rhythm so perfect and mouth watering that she could feel her head spin. ¡°Se¡­ bas¡­ tian¡­¡± she began to call out his name between her ragged breaths when he increased the pace and pressed the heel of his palm down a little harder. ¡°Shh¡­ Adia¡­ can you hear that? Listen to it. That¡¯s the sound of your incredibly wet c*nt.¡± He whispered and the scandalous and erotic squelching sounds suddenly seemed to echo out louder in her ears the moment he mentioned it. Oh dear lord¡­ He suddenly stopped his fingers just when she started to writhe uncontrobly in pleasure, causing her to nearly cry out in protest. He seemed to be waiting for something for a moment. Was he waiting for her to beg him to continue? Or could he be deciding if she was finally ready for him? Whatever it was, Adia could no longer take it. Pure instincts took over her body and her hips moved on its own, her hips grinding herself onto his hand. And he cursed again. This time, it sounded like a growl rumbling in her ears, sending even more delicious shivers through her. ¡°Gods! You¡¯re so hot. You really never cease to surprise me. Look at you¡­¡± his other hand guided her head forward. ¡°Look straight ahead, Adia.¡± Adia was shocked to see herself being reflected through an antique mirror before them. She could not believe the sight she was seeing and all she could do was gape at the image of herself that was almost unrecognizable. 172 ¡°Can you see how beautiful and hot you are right now?¡± he asked but words had failed her. She was not sure if he actually posed that question for her to answer or was it just to draw her attention to her current state that was reflected in the mirror. Whatever it was, she was in no shape to answer him anyway. But her eyes were drawn to the reflections in the mirror and could not look away at all. In it, Adia could see him behind her, hisrge body framing her smaller one and she could not believe the scandalous sight that was disyed so shockingly. Had he been watching them both in that mirror the entire time since they had started? ¡°Now, now¡­ don¡¯t stop moving those sexy hips. Grind yourself against me. No, don¡¯t take your eyes off the mirror, Adia.¡± He murmured. There was something just so deliciously intense and sinful in his voice as his eyes gleamed while he stared so passionately at her through the mirror. And she could not quite tell if that look belonged to a predator preparing and nning to consume his prey or a lover worshiping her, or both. However, her body listened to him, to his everymand. And all she could feel was pleasure and more pleasure. So much that she suspected her IQ would continue dropping the longer the time she spent being in his arms. ¡°F*ck yes. You¡¯re so hot. What a beautiful woman you are¡­ yes, keep watching. Watch just how hot and beautiful and ravishing you are. Watch how you bloom and respond so wonderfully in my hands.¡± These rumbling whispers in her ears had her feeling like she was going to lose herselfpletely. The fire he had ignited now had raged and turned into an inferno. A heavenly inferno. When he worked her faster, Adia felt something tight coiling within her, intensifying the more he grinded his palm down on her nub. Every inch of her flesh seemed to emanate spikes of intense pleasure, causing her breath to hitch continuously, threatening to cut off her breathing at times. It was as if Sebastian had already mastered ying and controlling her, as for every ce he touched now only served to send her floating into the heavens. Everything he did was just right, just perfect. There was nothing that felt bad. Nothing was off. He doubled his pace, gliding and diving his digits harder into her. The wet, erotic and scandalous sounds mingled with her pants and moans. Something big and amazing wasing¡­ she could feel it. She wasing! And she could already tell this would be the kind of orgasm she has never experienced before. At exactly the right moment, he gave her what she wanted, needed, and then her pleasure exploded like never before. She pulled and mped around his fingers violently as she cried out, not even able to make any sense of what he was murmuring in her ears anymore. She only knew that he was speaking to her in that wonderful deep voice that could cause tingles to spark in her lower areas. Everything was just shocking. Simply mind-blowing. And her mind was in bits and pieces. But he did not stop his onught on her as if he did not want her orgasm to end yet. He kept on going, prolonging her bliss, until every inch of her tingled and sang and danced with inexplicable pleasure that it was bordering on painful. ¡°Gods¡­¡± his growl finally pierced through the fog that wrapped around her as she came down from that impossible high. She felt like she was now nothing but a heap of jelly. ¡°You¡¯re the hottest wench I¡¯ve ever seen. Look at you¡­ f*ck!¡± His voice was ragged in her ears. ¡°Look at this, baby. Take a good look.¡± He brought his hand that was glistening with her juices closer to her until it was literally right in her face. His hand was drenched and all she could do was stare at it. She could not even find a word to say. Her mind seemed to have short-circuited. Then she was moved. He ced her on the bed, gently. She had expected him to drop her on the bed like what she had read during her research, but he once again did the unexpected. ¡°You¡¯re more than ready for me now, Adia. F*ck, I can¡¯t wait to be inside that beautiful wet c*nt of yours.¡± He said as he stood there, looking down at her like he cannot wait to devour her. His eyes gleamed with such ferocious hunger that it sent an uncontroble and pleasurable shiver through her body. And when he freed his manhood from his boxer brief, Adia felt like she was instantly jolted back to her senses. Oh, dear lord! She unconsciously pushed herself up on her elbows and almost scooted back against the headboard in her rm. Her eyes stretched wide as she stared at his length. He was bigger and thicker than she had ever thought. And those veins¡­ ¡°Look at what you did to me, Adia.¡± His deep voice echoed as he half bit his lip. He looked like he was in disbelief himself. ¡°Yes, you did this. It was you who made me this hard.¡± Adia swallowed as she looked up at him, a little rmed. There was only one thing in her mind now. She was sure that huge thing would be painful if it were to enter her! Because¡­ there was just no way it wouldn¡¯t! Right¡­?! Her heart raced frantically the longer she stared at his length. He climbed on the bed and when he loomed above her body, Adia could not help but stiffen up. ¡°You¡¯re not going to tell me you¡¯re not ready yet, are you?¡± he asked, staring down at her. What he said made Adia bite down on her lower lip. She remembered that they still need to go all the way. That they must do it tonight. They must! She had also told him so bravely earlier on that she was ready. But¡­ oh lord¡­ ¡°I¡­ I¡­¡± she swallowed to make herself stop stammering. ¡°I didn¡¯t know you¡¯re¡­ you¡¯re that huge. I¡¯m afraid I might not be able to¡­ uhm¡­ amodate something that¡­ huge.¡± Thest word came out barely as a whisper. He pulled away, sat on his heels and threw his head back. A breathy chuckle escaping his lips. The scene was so riveting and alluring that Adia¡¯s heart could not help but skip a couple of beats. When he returned his gaze down to her, Adia could not help but hold her breath at the sight. Only a blind woman would probably not fall into a daze seeing how he looked right now. He looked even hotter, sexier, and more handsome than before. She still could not exin how this man was even capable of looking like this. This is an unfair advantage that he had over her! There should be aw against men from being so perfectly gorgeous and alluring all at once. Adia could not help that suddenint that sprung up in her mind. ¡°I can¡¯t believe nothing could intimidate you but my hard dick.¡± He shook his head, his eyes gleamed with amusement and a little yfulness. Adia¡¯s face burned red and could not retort. How was she to have ae-back for that kind of statement?! She was certain that with his size, it would definitely hurt. The feeling of not wanting to taste pain right after all the incredible things he had just made her experience had her resolve a little shaken. He licked his lips once his smile faded. And then all amusement evaporated as though it was never there in the first ce. He was back to his insanely hot predatory expression. ¡°How did you even know you can¡¯t take it in, hmm? Adia?¡± he asked, palming her down there again before lifting his hand back to his mouth and licked her juice so slowly as he pinned her with his gaze. ¡°You¡¯re¡­ right.¡± She forced out a decisive voice. ¡°Didn¡¯t they say you wouldn¡¯t know unless you try? So¡­¡± she trailed off when he suddenly smirked, she had taken him in before, she can still do it now.ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org . ¡°Good call, Adia. Because I wasn¡¯t nning on letting you get away just like that. Not after you have made me like this.¡± His hands moved to her knees and grabbed them as he held her eyes. ¡°I was nning to pleasure you until you cry out that you¡¯re ready¡­ No. You would be begging to take my dick inside you by the time I¡¯m done with you¡­¡± As Adia¡¯s eyes widened, he took that moment of inattention to spread her legs wide apart and then his head went down on her and gave her wetness a long sinful lick that had re-ignited the mes once again. Adia immediately reached out and grabbed his tousled dark hair. His eyes lifted and met hers. But he did not take his mouth off her. Not even for a fraction of a second. And dear lord¡­ seeing him in that position¡­ and those gleaming metallic eyes¡­ trained fully on her¡­ Then he ate her there, sending Adia¡¯s mind into space again that she could barely think about the fact that he did not react that she was gripping his hair. Was this not a part of his rule? Was he fine with his hair being touched? Was it an exception since it was not directly touching his skin? The wicked and skillful dance of his tongue as he yed with her nub quickly erased all thoughts in her mind. Her moans slowly became a little louder as he did not bother shushing her anymore. He was so busy with her down there, driving her insane with how he pleasured her with his mouth and tongue. Soon, she felt it again, that coiling feeling building and tightening within her. Wanting to experience that mind-blowing explosion once again, she unconsciously pulled at his hair, but then¡­ he pulled away. She was panting hard as she met his gaze. Licking his wet lips, he grabbed her chin and whispered. ¡°You¡¯re so delicious that it is driving me crazy. Now on all fours, my gorgeous Adia.¡± His voice was so strained. So damned sexy. Before she knew it, she had already obeyed and was on her hands and knees. He had done it. He had done what he had told her. Though her mouth did not cry the words out loud, her body cried them out for her. 173 HAPPY FAMILY It was a mixture of heat and cold sensation that Sebastian made her feel, and she heard him say, ¡°Give me a moment.¡± But before he left her, he bit into her ear once again and got off the bed. Adia felt the pain that upied her mind, and her ear caught the sound of something tearing. Sebastian joined her in the bed, and once he had worn the condom, he sat in between her legs. cing both his hands on either side of her waist, he pulled her towards him, and this little action had her wet between her legs. She felt him positioning himself at the entrance of her sex, and she braced herself while watching him. Sebastian leaned forward, cing his arm on one side of her head and looking at her closely. He caressed her cheek, looking at her as if he was entranced in her presence. ¡°I will take good care of you,¡± he promised her, his words holding a tenderness that made Adia¡¯s heart squeeze. She mustered a smile right now and replied, ¡°I know you will.¡± He kissed her one more time, before using his other hand to guide himself into Adia¡¯s wet core. Her lips parted, feeling him stretch and fill himself in her, and for a few moments, he didn¡¯t move and let her adjust to his intrusion. Sebastian continued to gently brush her hair, and when she opened her eyes, he asked her, ¡°You okay?¡± Adia turned to look at him and nodded, ¡°Yeah. I am okay,¡± she whispered. This is her first real sex, though it was a little painful because of his size, she was more than okay. Once he felt her rx, Sebastian slowly started to move before he picked up pace on noticing Adia starting to sink back into the pleasure. In the beginning, it had felt strange for Adia, as she had never experienced something like this before, being treated tenderly in bed by a man. But as seconds and minutes started to pass, her body was being taken over by desire to have more of Sebastian. She threw her head back when Sebastian thrusted his hip with a little more force, hitting the pleasurable spot in her. He moved his body with ease without crushing her body but still staying close to her, their lips connected to each other, and for that moment, Adia¡¯s moans were swallowed by him. With every thrust made by Sebastian, Adia was pushed closer to the edge. Her mind swirled with the passion that he filled her with, and somewhere in between, her hands gripped his shoulders for support. When she took a look at Sebastian, where he had indulged himself in her, feeling more than she did as he had his own eyes closed, and when he opened it, there was something very seductive about his look. The more she watched him, the more erotic the sight turned out to be. But when he ced his hand on her forehead, caressing her head, there was something tender about his action, as if there was nothing that could harm her. Her lips parted when he thrusted harder and faster, soon, her mind was consumed back to the way of seeing stars. Soon, Adia hit her peak, and she threw her head back with her back arching into Sebastian¡¯s body which pressed back. Sebastian didn¡¯t stop his movements, and his lips found her neck, showering it with kisses, and when he was close to his release, he sunk his fangs into her neck. Adia¡¯s body trembled in pleasure before it went ck with Sebastian¡¯s head buried in her neck. They stayed like that for long minutes with her chest heaving for air. Bringing her hand to ce it on the back of Sebastian¡¯s head, she weaved her fingers through his red hair.
