The Vampire King Chapter 120: Drugged
One week later, Ezekiel walked out of professor Clifford's office feeling burdened. Professor Clifford was complaining about Isabel's performance in classes and even in the impromptu test he had given that day. She was failing. He rubbed a hand across his neck. He stayed away from her since the night they cooked dinner together but thoughts of her plagued his mind throughout. She didn't visit the cafe again but he did see her sometimes, mostly in glimpses. It was Friday. Perhaps he could visit the bar to see her or he could continue staying away from her but she needed his help. She wouldn't admit it but she did and he sincerely wanted to help her. Isabel... why did she like making things difficult for herself? He waited in the cafe but as usual, she didn't show up. He busied himself with getting some work done but he could barely concentrate. He liked her, he finally admitted to himself, he really liked her. He ventured to the bar in the evening and as he hoped,

"Can't you think!? Zoom in! I want a closer look!"The CCTV personnel zoomed in, bringing the figure to light."Isn't this..." Boss's eyes narrowed in confusion then darkened in rage, "what... what..." Exactly what relationship did Isabel have with this client? She blew out a breath and ran a trembling hand through her hair. How would she explain what she just saw to Stan?"Find him. Now," she ordered harshly then stalked out of the surveillance room."Where's Mr. Stan?" She asked a guard when she stepped back out. His two men were conscious already."He took Nicky in."Her heart sank in relief. "Good, good," she murmured, rubbing her sweaty palms against her dress."Send in more girls, the best we have," she ordered then walked up to Stan's men."Are you two weaklings?" She barked, "how were you so lax to allow yourselves to get outwitted?""We were caught off guard," one of them answered rudely, "who are you to give us orders?""Question me again and I'll have you saying your goodby
The Vampire King Chapter 122: Caught
Ezekiel jerked awake at the sound of his ringing phone. His breathing was heavy and his eyes darted around feverishly. Isabel, where was she? He darted out of the room and was halfway down the stairs when he heard clanging sounds coming from the kitchen. Huh?He tiptoed and peeped in. His agitation went away immediately, seeing her moving about in his clothes, cooking whatever, and humming a happy tune as she worked. He smiled, finding contentment in watching her activities. He remembered his ringing phone and he tiptoed back up the stairs. It was still ringing.11:09 pm.It was Max, Isabel's father."Ezekiel! Where are you!?"He pulled back sharply, his ears ringing. He shook his head and put the phone on loudspeaker instead."Evening, sir. Is anything wrong?""Isabel, is she with you?""Yes, she is. Were you worried about her?" He asked in amusement."Very worried, son. Two men barged into my home and ransacked the house because they were looking for her. They said she wasn't at her
The Vampire King Chapter 123: Assaulted twice
"Isabel," Boss called, disapproval evident in her tone, "why are you acting this way and putting us through so much trouble?"Isabel shook her head, forcing herself not to look at the beast in her presence."How dare you send Nicky to drug me?" She asked accusingly, "isn't that just too low, even for you?""You do not tell me what to do," Boss eyed her, "perhaps if you had refused right from the start, our VVIP client here wouldn't have been so adamant about having you. Come back, Isabel. I'll pay you well, you know that.""Never," she spat, tearing up.Ezekiel stepped in front of her, "leave her alone.""Or else what?" Boss snickered, "you had her to yourself for several nights yet you never touched her. Aren't you a fool?""He had her?" Stan growled, stepping forward. Isabel shrank back."Yes, I had her," Ezekiel answered, glaring at the boss, "but I chose to treat her like the human she is rather than a thing to be toyed with.""Oh yeah," Stan chuckled, moving to stand in front of
The Vampire King Chapter 124: Avoiding her
An hour after waking up bright early the next morning, Ezekiel still hadn't woken up. At first, she was worried but the nurse told her that it was due to fatigue and it was a good sign. She sat, watching him. He slept peacefully but she still felt bad about the injuries he had. It was all because of her. She didn't even ask how he managed to save her from the bar in the first place.She sighed, looking up at the ceiling. She was grateful to the God she knew existed for blessing her with such a gift, the gift of a true friend. She was smarter now. After everything they had gone through, she would be a fool to throw all that away for the sake of keeping her ego intact. She looked back at him. He chose to be her friend and he persisted in being one. She was willing to be his too and oh, what a jealous friend she was. She would have him all to herself. She smiled, blowing out a tense breath.Thirty minutes later, the police came in for a report and she gave it to them. She took them to hi
The Vampire King Chapter 125: Irene
Isabel rang the doorbell to Ezekiel's home. Wasn't it pitiful? He had been trying so hard to get her to open her heart to him and just when she decided to do just that, he shut down. She wouldn't let herself be used in such a manner.The front door opened slowly."Hey," she greeted, smiling foolishly. All the scolding she planned vanished from her head.He smiled cutely, "you must be cold. Come in."She raised a brow but followed him in. "Are you kidding me?" She blurted out to his blushing face when she saw his living room. It was all a mess."I have not really been... well, you know..." he stuttered, looking anywhere but at her."You would have just asked," she scoffed, eyeing him up, "with my case being taken up, I don't think I'll end up paying any compensation which means I won't need your help any longer but that doesn't mean, I won't be a friend. After all, I was the one who caused this. Why have you been avoiding me?"He blinked and turned away from her."Ezekiel," she called
The Vampire King Chapter 126: Drinking
"So all the time you spent chasing me, you weren't taken by me?" She questioned, trying hard to hide her hurt."I was," he answered, looking her in the eye, "but I made sure I was conscious of all my actions and not just led by the feelings in my heart. I did all what I did mainly because I saw the good in you and wanted to save you from all that mess."She looked away, "I feel like drinking.""Isabel...""Will you join me?" She stared at him.He sighed, "just one glass. You know where the drinks are right?"She left without answering and returned with two bottles. He was thankful the wine he had didn't have an alcohol percentage of more than twenty."You know that night when I tried seducing you," she spoke, pouring wine for him and then for herself, "it wasn't just because I didn't want boss to find out I wasn't doing the job. I did want to see how good you were in bed."He smiled, "of course, you did. You were never an impulsive person unless you had something to gain from it."She
The Vampire King Chapter 127: Going crazy
Why she left Ezekiel's home and went off to a bar so early in the morning, she had no idea but she recognized the burning feeling of revenge within her. She wanted to make him pay. Twice, he led her on and then abandoned her when she was at the heights of ecstasy, leaving her feeling like a fool. His kisses, his touch, were unmatched by no other, not even the good-looking man that was currently kissing the hell out of her."There's a room behind the corner," he grunted, ravaging her neck, "let's finish this there."She waited, perhaps she would feel something soon. She rolled her eyes, who was she kidding?"Sorry," she pulled away, adjusting her clothes, "you're just not it."She walked off. She sympathized with the lustful confused look in the man's eyes, that was the same state Ezekiel always left her in. Was it because she wasn't attractive enough, because she was not up to the standards of his sleazy girlfriend, or because he was disgusted by the fact that she had been assaulted?
