Into the nights Chapter 48
CardinI stood outside my window, overlooking the guests, some from Mexico, Santiago and here in New York. Of course everybody wants to see Cardin Velvet tie the knot. Seven months later, everybody carried on with their lives as if the war that happened three months ago didn't happen. I can't never forget the man who sacrificed his life for me, who took the silver knife meant for my heart. The same silver knife that I used to plug Emily's heart out making sure that she won't survive it this time. Even though I haven't known him for so long, I know that I'll definitely miss him. Seth Velvet my brother.After his death, the people of Santiago wanted me back but I refused, offering the position of kingship to Baron who also refused. He said that his position is by my side. I offered it to Ashley which she accepted. According to her, she needs to be away from me so she can be able to open her heart to others.A knock on the door brought me out from my inner thought "It's time" Baron said g

LucyI must have dozed off sometime during the flight because I woke up with my head on Cardin's shoulder. He didn't notice that I was awake because his attention was on his phone which was on his other free hand."Would you like a glass of wine?" He asked, his attention still on the phone.Well I guess he knows I'm awake. "No. I'm fine" I sat up properly and looked out through the window. All I could see were blue clouds. Nothing more. "How long are we gonna be up here?"He finally pocketed his phone. He glanced at his wrist watch. "Three more hours left"I stretched my bones and groaned loudly "Jeez, my back feels stiff" I unfastened the safety belts and stood up "I'm going to relieve my bladder" I felt his eyes on me as I walked to the bathroom. I took my time, did my business and washed the makeup off my face. I mean it looks messed up already. Satisfied with my natural face, I left the toilet.I walked in on the flight attendants' hand on Cardin's shoulder and it wasn't just lying

LucyI couldn't believe my eyes. I am in Italy. Fucking Italy. I'm so exploring this place. I kept looking out the window, making videos. I left Cardin to his phone, too engrossed with my environment rather than complaining that it's our honeymoon and his eyes shouldn't be glued to his phone all the time."You should really relax, we have a long journey ahead of us" he scooted closer to me and draped his hand on my shoulder "We should be in this car for five hours and thirty seven minutes give and take including any stop"My eyes widened "Five what?" I pulled off my shoe. I can as well get comfortable since it's going to be a long ride. Cardin suggested we watch a movie which I immediately agreed to; what else will we be doing throughout the duration of the car ride?We watched the movie. I talked almost half of the movie, asking stupid questions when I'm obviously still watching the movie. "Do you think he's going to kill her?" I asked Cardin, my eyes partly closed not wanting to see

CardinWe've been here for one week, I took Lucy shopping, took her to historic enter, took her sky diving. I gave her a definition of fun but we leave tonight. I can't stay away from work forever."I can't believe we are leaving!" Lucy whined for the tenth time. She kicked her suitcase, causing the poor thing to fall. I stifled laughter as I picked it up then handed it to Tornado to put in the car.The moment he left with our suitcases, I squatted down in front of Lucy. "I promise we will be back" I tilted my head, thinking of the best season to return "maybe we will spend our Christmas here"She peered at me from under her lashes "Really?" When I nodded, she groaned loudly "I sound like a teenager who is throwing a tantrum"I laughed as I pulled her up, placed a chaste kiss on her lips before we walked out towards the car hand in hand.After a long journey, we finally got to the manor. Lucy was asleep next to me, using my shoulder as her headrest. I tapped her lightly on her cheek wh

LucyI drove round the city for God knows how long, fully aware of the fact that Tornado is three cars behind me. Did he really think I wouldn't notice the black Bentley which has Velvet boldly written on the plate?I made a stop at the super market to get myself a bucket of ice cream. Ice cream is definitely what I need right now. As I was trying to park properly, I almost knocked a small boy over which tore a scream from my throat.I got down from the car and rushed the little boy to make sure I didn't inflict any body harm. Tornado appeared from no where as I helped the little boy stand. He was fine apart from few scratches here and there.The little boy in question did not even care about the fact that he was almost killed, he just stood there and stared dreamily at his now crushed biscuits and chocolate which made me feel even worst than I'm feeling. "Hey, why don't we go back inside so I can buy you new ones"It was as if my voice snapped him out of his daze. He began to pull his

CardinI left the house today a satisfied man. Sex with Lucy will never get boring neither will it get old. I stared down at my phone and the picture of that wanker Lucas greeted me, his bogus smile irking me. It's not as if I feel threatened by this man, it's just that he openly displays his affection towards my wife and I can't do anything about it because my wife sees him as her friend."Alberto requested another meeting and this time, he seems to be pleading" Baron said from his position in the front of the car. The driver paid no attention to us as he focused on the road."I'll see him once I'm done in the winery. Tell him to wait at the office. If I should get there and don't see him, I'm not ever meeting with him""You do know we are going to spend a lot of time at the winery right?" Baron asked, his attention now on his phone."If he really wants to meet me, then he will have to wait." Baron looked up from his phone, but I gave him a pointed look instead, silently telling him t

LucyI walked into lights off with Tornado right behind me. According to Cardin, I used to work here before I got promoted to the manager, but I don't really remember anything about that. I've been here few times before the wedding, mostly to have drink with Cardin and Baron and I know my way around because Cardin made sure to take me on a tour round the building. I walked straight into my office and sat down. Tornado stationed himself outside my office. I called in the former acting manager who is now the assistant manager. She is to handle the nightly duties then submit the paperwork to me in the morning before leaving for the day. I called her in and requested for the paperwork which she presented before me."Do you need any other thing ma'am?"I looked up from the stack of papers "No, that will be all. I'm sure my husband already told you how things will be from now onward?""Yes, he did ma'am. If that's all, I'll like to leave for the day"I waved her off. "Have a nice ride home

CardinThe discussion with Lucy went surprisingly well. I was expecting her response when she told me that she wants her to stay with Baron instead. According to her, it's the same compound just different building but I countered the idea by telling her that the deal was that she stays with me until her father sorts his enemy. She didn't take the argument further after that.Whoever it was that was climbing the stairs ealier finally knocked. An intake of breath told me that it was Baron who was at the other end of the door. I slowly removed Lucy's hand which was draped on my stomach.I succeeded in removing her hand without waking her; okay maybe I did wake her up, but she didn't bother opening my eyes. I opened the door to Baron's annoyed face "I can't believe that fucker woke me up from sleep. Alberto is here with his daughter"I heard the gate open, but I never thought it was Alberto. "Stop being a pussy and show him to my office. Make sure the guys keep an eye on him"Baron huffed

Into the nights Epilogue
Two years later I watched Jimmy play around the garden with Ashley. It's very surprising how she grew fond of him. Just two years ago, I had a fight with Cardin about adopting him, I fight which I obviously won. I ruined his life by being the main reason why his parents died, the evidence of my recklessness marred his skin although his vampire trait tried healing him up, but yet not everything got wiped off.As for Petrov, I don't really know what Cardin did to him. I never asked, but he came home countless nights with blood stained shirt.Pedro walked over to Ashley and handed her glass. Finally, I think she's moving on. Although she's not totally over Cardin because she still bitches at me at whatever opportunity she gets, but at least she's giving Pedro a chance."Hey," Cardin called, his hands circling my waist from behind "I've been looking for you" he kissed my neck before raising his head to stare at Jimmy. "He looks all grown."I giggled at him. Ever since Jimmy got signed ov

Lucy Did I get run over by a vehicle or what? Why does my head hurt so badly? I racked my brain to remember what really happened, that was when it came flowing back. That bastard snapped my back just to shut me up.I opened my eyes, expecting to see the now familiar leaking roof, but instead of the roof, I saw another familiar one, one that I find comfort in. I sat upright massaging my temple due to the headache. Looking down to my clothing, I discovered that I was wearing something neat and my body looks scrubbed.I went down in search of the other occupant of this house who happens to be my husband. I opened the door to an empty hallway, not that I'm surprised. Cardin made it clear that none of the guards should wonder upstairs. According to him, he doesn't want them hearing my moans, not even by mistake. He believes that sound was created just for him and him alone.Walking down the stairs, I followed the whisper of voices to the kitchen, there I met Baron, Cardin and Ashley. I thi

Lucy Staying in the dark brought back feelings that are somewhat familiar, when I close my eyes, I see images that make me wonder if I'm the character of my imaginations? Or dreams? I can't even tell what's real and what's not.The only face I see is that of the young man who brings me a glass of blood once a day for my daily sustainance. Most times, I see the face of Tornado staring back at me then I'm overcame by guilt, guilt over the fact that I led him to his death, not to mention Jimmy and his parents.The asshole who took me is yet to make an appearance after my short conversation with Cardin, most times, I think he has forgotten he left someone down here.The sound of the groaning door brought me back to the present. Turning over to the other side, I opened my eyes and blinked rapidly to clear my blurry eyesight. When I saw who was standing at the door, I shot to my feet."My deepest apologies for my inability to visit all these while, I've been busy with other things that isn'

Cardin We got to Alberto's house by nightfall, the Bentley parked outside his gate, but not within eye sight. Baron eyed the security men at the gate, his face folding in a frown. "How do you intend to pass through these securities?"I ignored him because I already have it covered. I know their focus will be on the other black SUV that my men deliberately parked outside the gate, making sure to make the car so obvious which will give Vincent and Sebastian time to handle the two men that are guarding the back gate."We are clear boss" Vincent voice filled my ear."We are entering through the back door." I informed Baron who is still eyeing the security men through the tinted glass. "Klaus? Is the security system disabled?""Yes boss."I opened the door and walked towards the back gate, my eyes flickering briefly to the black SUV at the front gate. They are to drive away the moment we enter the house without any trouble but if things should go south, they are free to use the werewolf ba

Cardin Three days and still no news on my wife. Despite all we did, we always ended up at a dead end and I am near frustration.Standing on the terrace, I watched Baron and Alberto deep in conversation. Merissa kept passing glances at me, but I made no move in acknowledging it. Baron shook hands with Alberto as he handed him the files which means the deal is done.I'm suppose to be happy, having added to my wealth, but the one and only person whom I want to celebrate with isn't here with me. Throwing the cigar into the ash tray, I walked back into the house.Baron met me at the bar, he dropped the file from Alberto on the table. "The deal is done. Merissa didn't want to go, it seems she has developed likeness for this place."I know what he's trying to do, but honestly it isn't working. "We are striking Sicily tomorrow. Let the men know so they can get ready.""I don't think attacking his territory while he still has Lucy in his possession is the right decision. Any decision that you

Cardin Something feels off. You know that feeling of restlessness, the feeling you get when things go wrong, that's the feeling I'm getting right now. "Are you okay?" Baron asked me as he dropped the files he was holding. "If this is about the wine distribution, I'm sure it will go well."This negative feeling isn't about money or fame, it's something closer to the heart. "Call Tornado, tell him to turn the car around and bring my wife back home."Baron grinned at me "You miss her already?""I'm ain't in the mood for jokes Baron, call Tornado and tell him to bring my wife the fuck home. Something is about to go wrong, I can feel it and I want her around me when shit hits the rock."Baron must have noticed how serious I am because he fished his phone out from his pocket and started dialing Tornado's number. I tried focusing on file before me, but that proved diffcult, especially when Baron's call was being redirected to Tornado's voicemail. "Why isn't he picking his call?" I asked ou

Lucy Two days later, and I'm yet to receive any news from Merissa. With her limited time here, I lost hope of finding Jimmy through her help. It took a lot of self restraint not to go meet her myself for any update, it will only make me come out as desperate which is an impression I do not ever want to make.I dipped my head under water for few minutes, before resurfacing again. I did it the second time but this time, when I resurfaced, I saw Merissa standing at the edge of the pool. If Cardin should see her standing there, he'll snap her head off her neck without even bothering to find out what she's really doing here. To Cardin, she's just a carrier of negative vibes.I swam towards the edge of the pool to meet her. "Cardin wouldn't appreciate seeing you anywhere around me, so what are you doing here?""I know he won't like me being around you, which is why I'm going to make this brief." She handed me a piece of paper "that's his address, if you want to meet him, you should go there

LucyTen days of keeping my eyes on the streets of New York everyday as I go to work and return from work, but I'm yet to find who I'm looking for. I was able to get his name from the guy at that supermarket he tried to steal from. According to him, Jimmy is a little boy who runs errands for people around here and also pick people's pocket, but nobody knows where he lives. At least none he knows of. I ended up taking a picture of Jimmy which was captured by the supermarket's CCTV.Tornado stopped the car just outside the front porch, I got down, then he drove away to park the car properly. I checked the time on my wrist watch to be sure if Cardin will be home or not. When it read ten minutes to ten, I knew for sure that he isn't home yet."You're back early sugar tits" Baron called out from the balcony which startled me."Is Cardin home yet?""Nope, he has a quick errand that he has to run, but he will be home pretty fast"I almost pouted my lips, but I restrained myself. I'm not a fiv

Cardin I was thankful that there are some matters that I left unattended which I'll be able to use to teach Merissa a lesson. Ever since I turned Sandra into a vampire, I gave my men the instruction to torture her with everything silver, but they should keep her alive because I want to be the one to end her life. She stole from me afterall.The door to my office opened and Baron walked in, I blinked slowly at him, my mind thinking of what it will take to get Baron to knock on that door before entering my office. "How many times have I told you to knock before entering my office? Do I have to yank your ear drum open then force the words inside?"He occupied the seat facing me then crossed his ankles "I saw Lucy on my way up here, so I figured up will be alone hence no reason to knock"I didn't bother correcting him to knock whether Lucy is in here or not. Most times talking to Cardin or trying to drill an instruction into his head is like wasting my time. "There is a newest development
