CHAPTER TEN: Gone!

Hayden tried but failed to sleep , staring into empty space with many thoughts on his mind he stood up and walk towards the bar that was besides his kitchen and sat down on the stool to pour himself a glass of wine.

He sip his drink gingerly then suddenly he stopped halfway when he heard footsteps coming his way. He frown , confused. He has sent Jansen and Farrell home about two hours ago when it was confirmed that the three Beasts that go berserk has been caged down.

The scent hit his nostril and he turn to see kyle rubbing his eye lazily. The latter stop when he saw Hayden.

" Master, you are not sleeping " he said walking to him.

Kyle has been living with Hayden eversince he was assigned as his secretary. He wore a Black pajamas and his hair was disheveled from sleep.

" Where are you going? I hope you are not sleep walking " Hayden asked concerned. Kyle responded by smiling sheepishly, he knew his master care about him a lot.

" Not at all " he look over to Hayden who pays him no more attention and had continue sipping his wine " master are we safe now? I couldn't help but get scared with the thought of the beasts loosing their mind "

He watched as Hayden gritted his teeth before replying.

" I know but there is no aura that indicates danger in the air anymore " he said shrugging.

" Uh ... Master your bride, did you see her tonight? " Kyle asked hesitantly but as he was so curious he couldn't help but being nosy.

Hayden nodded in positive.

" I do , she is quite feisty. She got jealous when she saw me with Cecil at the annual event then later accused me of being nothing but a beast. " He replied smirking before he continued " I saved her earlier from one of those beast who went crazy "

Kyle froze in shock " You shifted in her presence? "

" No, I don't have to change fully to take down one of the beasts. Remember I'm the strongest of them all that's why they made me their leader. All i need is just my fangs "

Kyle flopped on another bar stool.

" Well that's fine, I'm sure she won't mind marrying you since you save... "

He choked back his remaining words when he saw Hayden eyes glowing. " Master... Your eyes... You are getting upset " Kyle stammared in fear. He quickly cover his mouth with his palm.

" I'm so sorry, i have spoken too much " he apologized bowing slightly to avoid Hayden's gaze.

" I'm not getting married to her, she hated the Beasts, insult them and look down on them. I can't marry someone like that, no i can't. " He told Kyle calmly.

The latter raised up his head slightly to stare at Hayden and he heave a sigh when he saw that his eyes are not glowing anymore.

" I'm going to the club , I can't think straight " Hayden announced walking away towards the exit but he stopped by Kyle who quickly run to his side.

" I will go with you " he look around fearfully and Hayden scoff.

" No need, get some rest. No beasts will dare enter my home and attack you if that's what you are worried about "

He didn't wait for reply as he quickly walk away towards the exit.

He get into his car and pull out, driving towards the club. He had been having a hard time getting his mind off the beautiful Isabella.

She doesn't want me, she said so herself but why do i feel miserable about it? He thought while driving.

His inner voice replied him

That's probably because it's been s while you have take in a woman.

He finally pull into the club and alighted. He scan everywhere throughly from where he stood but got no aura that indicates danger so he walk inside to the club and straight to the room he share with Cecil.

He pulled off his shirt tiredly and laid on the bed waiting for Cecil because he knows fully well she would have perceived his scent.

The door open slowly and Cecil walk in smiling, she wore a pink short and a small top that revealed almost all her body. Hayden's beast who usually growl when he saw Cecil stay muted to the surprise and frustration of Hayden.

Cecil smile sheepishly before pulling off her short slowly.

" I know you will come back " She said seductively while staring at Hayden's chest.

He got up from the bed to Cecil and help her undress before lifting her from the floor as if she weigh nothing less than zero pounds , her leg around his waist. Cecil fitted her lips on Hayden's hungrily as passion started to flare up in her. Hayden answered by laying her down on the bed roughly with his palm on her breasts  stroking them gently.

Cecil tugged at his pants trousers but Hayden yanked her hands off gently. He stood up hastily breathing hard.

" Hayden, what's wrong? " Cecil asked in shock. Never had Hayden reject her  on bed.

When do i start feeling remorseful? I owe Isabella nothing for beast Lord's sake ! He yell at himself  inwardly. He turn to Cecil but he felt nothing whatsoever for her.

He picked up his shirt and walk out hastily.

What is going on with me? Why isn't my Beasts reacting the way it always does?

He get behind the wheel and drove out , driving home thinking hard.

Was it because of Isabella? No , never. I do not feel anything for her at all.

He shook his heard to push the thought away. He drove home and walk straight into his room.

Getting off his clothes ,he walk into the bathroom to shower. Trying to calm his trouble mind , he stayed under the cold water longer than necessary but no it doesn't help either.

He walked out of the bathroom naked and sat on the large bed staring ahead into space.

He finally laid on the bed covering his body with the bed coverlet, trying to get some sleep this time but then his door opened and both Farrell and Jansen rushed in.

Hayden sat up from the bed slowly ,confused at their behavior.

" What is wrong? " He asked glancing at their troubled face.

" It's the beasts we caged.  they are gone" Farrell replied breathlessly.

" What! Gone? "  Hayden replied in confusion and shock

He sprang up from the bed and quickly get dress.

" Let's get going " Hayden said hastily before walking out to the dawn.
