A man was looking at the screen where he could see a girl talking to his son. As Xavier laughed the man also couldn't stop himself from smiling. It's been decades since he saw his son smiling. He needed to protect her at any cost even if he had to go against the rules.
He could feel that the girl can save Xavier from the chains.
Suddenly someone knocked at the door and he quickly turned off the laptop. No one except him knew that the room has a camera.
Jessica entered the room and greeted him.
"How was your trip Jessica?"
He tried to act polite with her even he didn't want her to be here.
"It was great." She smiled and the man got up from the chair.
"Uncle, I came to know that you wanted another blood pet for Xavier. But he still has one."
"Let's talk about it later. I have to go somewhere now."
He gave her a hint that she needed to leave the room. Both of them came out and Javes left without saying much. What he could say to her when she was the selfish one.
Jessica saw him leaving and sneered.
"She has to die. I will make sure that he won't get his blood pet on time."
Her eyes glowed but she didn't know one thing, Star will give everything to protect herself.
..................
Star was getting bored while lying on the bed. Xavier was taking a bath from past two hours and she couldn't understand why he was acting strange.
Suddenly she up with a jerk. A thought appeared in her mind and she shivered. Could it be that he was hungry?
She was horrified and nearly screamed when the phone on the table rang. In a confusion, shee finally picked the phone.
"Hm, hello."
"Hello, my name is Javes, I am Xavier's father."
"Oh." Star wasn't sure of what to say.
"You don't need to worry, I will try to save you. But you have to do what I say."
"Save me......I.....mean...."
She heard a chuckle from the other side.
"I can see you."
Star quickly looked around.
"It's right in front of you, in the picture but don't tell this to anyone."
"And Why are you telling me this?" She wished he hasn't seen their kiss. Well it was a private thing and she suddenly felt embarrassed.
"Leave this. Listen to me first. I will help you and in return, you will help me. I will try to protect you and you have to protect Xavier. And one thing, don't trust anyone. Not even yourself."
Star quickly nodded and before he could cut the call she asked in a hurry.
"Is Vina.... alright?"
"Oh."
Her heart sank listening to this one word.
"Yes, she is." He cut the call and Star felt relieved. She was alright.
..............
Xavier rubbed the back of his neck and licked his dry lips. No matter how much he was trying to control himself but all was in vain.
The more frustrated thing was that it was first time he was trying not to drink blood even he had a living human in front of him.
Was he actually started liking her? No, it wasn't. He was only doing this because.......
But he couldn't think of a reason.
He was scanning her, feeling the blood moving through her veins. He could smell her and wanted to sank his teeth in her flesh.
"Stop looking at me like that." He came out of his thoughts hearing Star's annoyed voice.
"I know I am pretty but you are not supposed to stare at beautiful girls like this. You look like a creep."
Xavier was dumbfounded hearing her response. Next second he chuckled.
"You are not pretty at all."
"Then stop starring at me Pervert."
"I am not a pervert. You.... You ..."
Both were bickering at each other but one thing Xavier didn't realize that he couldn't feel his urge of drinking blood.
"You were the one who asked me to be your boyfriend and you are making use of me. I can't believe this. I should have just kill you."
"You can't kill me." Star laughed seeing his expressions.
"You can't kill any girl. Remember this." She warned him who felt threatened by her presence.
"I don't want to talk to you anymore. Leave me alone. You humans are pathetic."
Star looked at him with a teasing smile and moved closer to him. She took his hand in her own and gently patted it while Xavier looked at her with a shocked expression on his face.
"I know you are hungry."
He blinked slowly.
"You know, pregnant women are also like this. When they are hungry, they get angry."
Xavier scoffed and pulled his hand away from her grip.
"Did you just compare me with a pregnant woman?"
"No..."
"I can see what you are doing, you slay fox."
He was so angry that he wanted to kill her with his own hands.
.................
"What's your relationship with that lady who tried to kill me?" Star was trying hard to make Xavier distract from his thirst. She looked successful in her efforts as she was still alive. Xavier who had a glass of blood in his hand was still in looking at Star with eyes of an hungry lion. The blood from refrigerator wasn't as much tempting as the blood running in her veins. Xavier closed his eyes and sighed. "Ex." "Ex?....Like an actual ex." "Yeah." He opened his eyes and glanced at Star. He couldn't understand why she was looking so delicious. So delicious that he wanted to sank his fangs in her neck. "You had a......you had a girlfriend. I can't believe this. You lied to me." Xavier lazily rolled his eyes as Star looked gloomy and sad. "It's been forty years. You haven't born then." Star scratched her eye brow. It wasn't they were in love but still he was his boyfriend right now. Her first boyfriend and she got him after a lot of hard work. "You are not going back to her."
Xavier looked at the clock and quickly pushed Star away who was hoping hugging him tightly.It was nearly mid night and he knew what he will become soon."Go to....that corner.....""But...." Star tried to say something but Xavier quickly stopped her."You will be safe there.......Let me tell you one thing little fox, if you survived tonight....then.....I love you ......more than....my life." Xavier smiled painfully."What if I didn't?""Then my inner demon is more strong than you..."Star bit her lip. There was no way she was going to survive tonight. She looked at the painting and pressed her lips together. Why he wasn't helping her? Star leaned and placed a kiss on Xavier's lips."Thank you for everything. Even if I die, I won't have any regret.""Little fox..." Xavier scoffed..................Javes was returning towards his mansion. He needed to reach there before midnight.He pressed his temples and looked outside the window."I wish, she could save him." He thoughtAs soon as
Xavier bit inside of his cheek as he remembered how he was trying to attack Star. It all started for a little fun but now he really wanted to be with his little fox.Finally he got up and walked towards her who was sitting in the corner while her head was burried in her knees. He could hear faint sobbings.He sat as close to her as the chain allowed him. "Star." Star slowly lifted her head. She was crying from past two hours and this Vampire just now decided to ask if she was okay."Don't cry." Xavier looked in pain.Star rubbed her cheeks."Why? Does it make your heart ache."No, you look ugly."Star who was about to begin her session of crying, stopped and glared at him who was looking at her innocently. "You, you.....go away you nasty vampire. Go and burn in hell."She turned her head away and pouted angrily."I am sorry." Xavier tried to move towards her but the chain didn't allowed him."Come on. I didn't mean that.""Go away.""You are really beautiful.""I am not listening.
Javes stared at the phone screen while a frown formed on his forehead. A few moments ago, he received a call from the Vampire council who wanted to test Xavier's ability to control himself. If he failed this time there would be no returning back. They were going to end him.He grabbed the phone with such force that it's screen broke into tiny pieces. It was Jessica. He knew it was her but he couldn't do anything.He made a deal with council to let Xavier live and there will be no killing. But after the last night event where Xavier killed the girl, the council wasn't going easy on him.Xavier was a mutant Vampire as his mother was a human. He was born with Vampire genes and he was strongest among all. He was born to rule but due to his strong inner vampire, the council was scared of him.Javes sat on the chair and looked at the screen where Xavier and Star were fighting with each other like little kids. It was first time he saw him that happy.Javes believed that Star can be Xavier's
"No. I don't want to go. Please don't go. .....hik....please......" Star cried while tightly holding on his shirt. As Javes explained everything to her she wasn't able to control herself. She was scared that Xavier won't be able to return.Xavier patted her head and tried to free himself from her grip."Don't go." Star looked at him with wet eyes and his heart ached seeing her in this miserable condition."Star....... don't do this." He sighed."Then, promise me, you will come back. Promise me. You will control yourself there and you will prove to those pigs that you are strong."Xavier chuckled and hugged her one last time. He didn't promise her anything which he knew he won't be able to do."Go with dad." Xavier broke the hug and creased her cheek. He didn't want to lose her too but the fate wasn't allowing them to be together.He fell on his knees as Star left with Javes. He felt empty and his heart was aching. The pain was making him numb. He felt like someone was stabbing his h
One year later."One cappuccino and one strawberry cheesecake."Vina placed the slip in front of the barista and smiled. Max picked it up and went towards the coffee machine.It's been an year since she started working here. They were in a relationship from past seven months.Suddenly a sound of crashing came from near the exit door and both of them looked at each other."Star." They both said together and ran towards the door.As they reached there they saw Star throwing empty glass bottles on a man next to her. The man was trying his best to save himself."If I ever saw you here again I will put acid in your eyes, you half faced hedge pig."She shouted at him while throwing daggers with her eyes.Vina quickly walked towards her and pulled her aside. Right now Star was in a bad mood because of the man standing in front of her."What are you doing? Are you out of your mind?" Vina scolded her who pouted and turned away from her. Vina shook her head."Johnson, why don't you go inside?"
Star yawned and pulled the glass door to enter inside the cafe. She wasn't able to sleep last night and she had a busy day in book shop.She stopped seeing their owner talking to Max. She moved closer to listen what they were talking about but he turned at the same time making her startled. She quickly greeted him who chuckled and flicked at her forehead. He was an old man in his fifties."Star, how are you?" "Happy, like always." She smiled brightly and held the crescent in the chain which was hanging around her neck. It was a habit since she got that chain."Oh, you found it." The old man nodded his head. "Yeah, Johnson had it."Johnson opened a flower shop few months ago near the cafe.The old man patted her head."I sold the cafe. We are moving to the farm house." Star nodded and smiled. The old man always wanted to shift to village with his wife. She was happy that he was able to make a decision about it.After her previous owner left, she turned towards Max who was cleaning t
Star put the coffee beans in the small container and put the lid back. She was about to sit back when Vina entered inside the cafe in a hurry. The cafe also had sitting arrangements outside for people who wanted to enjoy weather and beautiful atmosphere outside. "The new owner is here." Star paid all her attention to Vina who was panicking."He wanted a coffee."At the same time a couple entered the cafe. Star picked her note pad and walked towards them. She greeted them with a smile and start taking their order. After writing down the order, she came to the counter where Max was putting the coffee on a tray. The cup had a beautiful design on it.Vina took the tray and left while Star looked through the glass where a man was sitting. Vina placed the tray in front of him while she wasn't able to see his face as his back was towards her."New owner, new rules." She heard a chuckle from Max.Soon she got her order and served them to the couple. She turned and saw Vina entering with th
