Gold-haired stranger-Daniel
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56After getting home, Ariel was so confused at what happened in the company. From the moment Sebastian had told her to leave, to the moment that the gold-haired stranger helped her. But Ariel decided to think less of what happened and rather, focus on meeting Resa later that night. Suddenly, the urge to go to the garden-now-turned forest came to her and Ariel did her best to reject that feeling. Her grandma walked into her room and asked "Ariel, why are you back from work this early?" And Ariel told her grandmother what happened at the office and the old woman looked lost in thoughts momentarily before gaining herself back.
"Grandma, why do I always get this feeling?" Ariel asked confused as worry filled her eyes."What feeling?" Her grandma asked and Ariel sighed before saying "I sometimes feel that urge to go back to mum's garden. Even after you told me not to anymore. The feeling is just something that's hard for me to reject. Why is it like that grandma? I know it's not normal".Ariel's grandmother sighed before saying "Ariel, this is pretty hard for me to say. " "Just say it grandma" Ariel said as she prepared herself for what she was about to hear. Her grandmother said "Ariel,your mother is buried in the garden". Ariel was awestruck with the newly found information. "So I'm sure that's the reason you feel connected or perhaps you feel drawn to the garden atimes" her grandmother continued and Ariel finally found her voice and said "Why didn't you tell me about this since" her grandmother moved closer to Ariel and said "I wanted to protect you Ariel". "Protect me from?" Ariel asked and her grandmother replied "it's better we don't talk about this Ariel" the woman said and Ariel looked and felt hurt. She was mad at her grandma because she felt it would have been better if she had told her earlier.With pain in her heart, she walked out of the room and out of the house. She took a taxi to the place where Resa had asked her to meet. Though it wasn't even near 9:00pm, Ariel went there. She just needed some time alone and also she needed more answers from Resa. So she decided to wait for Resa there. Getting to the place, Ariel's eyes met the huge sign board "Yang's residence- Your own perfect Haven". The place was an estate owned by a Chinese couple. Ariel told the driver to go in and when they got to the gates, the security guard there asked for their passes and Ariel could only state that she was invited by Theresa and the guard said "Theresa who?" "Theresa Wilson" Ariel said.The guard stared at Ariel for a while and said "Welcome" before proceeding to open the huge Gates of the estate. The driver drove inside the estate as they both began to search for no 24. When they got to the house, Ariel got down from the cab and paid the driver. The house was really beautiful, not too extravagant but beautiful. Ariel walked towards the entrance and saw a chair by the side of the door and sat there. She knew perfectly that Resa wasn't home but she was ready to sit and wait for her.~~~~~~This same moment in the CEO'S office, Resa told Sebastian "I have to go home" and Sebastian squinted his eyes briefly before saying "She's there right?" and Resa nodded as she said "I just had a vision about her and it looks like someone is about to go meet her there. Ariel can't be alone Sebastian, she needs someone who can protect her from people like Mike. Perhaps, you are that person" Sebastian laughed and said "Why do you think I'm the one fit to protect her? When you know I'm ten times more dangerous than Micheal" he said as his laughter subsided."You may never know Sebastian. I just believe you are fit for it" Resa retorted"She's too perfect and innocent to be protected by someone who devours on both the innocent and guilty, Resa" Sebastian said" Listen, Sebastian I know you have a good heart and I know you can protect her. So stop all this and do as you are told" Resa raised her voice slightly and Sebastian sighed and said "okay...I get your point. She can stay with me. That's what you want right?". Resa's face beamed with joy as she said "That's exactly what I want Sebastian. I'm off to meet her now". In a few seconds, Resa walked out of the office and soon, out of the company's walls.She decided to used her vampiric powers to get home quickly, which was inhuman speed than rather, take a taxi. She ran very fast due to her powers and made sure no human saw her. Getting into the estate, she saw someone approaching the direction of her house and she sensed that the person wasn't human. It was a young man. With gold hair to be precise. If those guards had seen him, they wouldn't have allowed him in. Resa thought. As she got closer to him, she sensed he was a witch. "...shit!..." She uttered under her breath. She was sure he teleported here that's why the guards didn't see him. If they knew he was in the estate, they would send him away immediately because the inhabitants of the estate were only vampires and humans. The Chinese couple built the estate only for vampires and humans. So obviously, no witch was allowed here.Resa wondered what this gold haired witch wanted with Ariel, so she decided to hide herself in a corner and watch what was about to unfold. If he made any attempts to take her with him, she would attack him. But for now, she didn't sense any ill intentions coming from him.The gold haired witch finally got to Resa's house and walked towards Ariel. "Hey" he said and Ariel looked up and saw him and stood up"ohhh you. Thank you so much for your help earlier", Ariel said as her green eyes stared at him brightly. "It's nothing. I'm Daniel...Daniel Greene" he said stretching out his hand to her and she took it "I'm Ariel". "You have a beautiful name Ariel" Daniel said still holding her hand. "Thanks" Ariel said still smiling and Daniel smiled at her back. His smile was just so contagious and beautiful that Ariel couldn't help but blush. Removing her hand from his, Ariel then asked "Do you live around here?" And the man paused for seconds before answering "Yeah. I just saw you walking down here and decided to come talk with you and see if you are safe" he said and Ariel just stared at his eyes. This guy wasn't human obviously. He teleported her out of the company earlier so there was no way he was human. "Oh okay..." She said as she sat back on the chair."I just wanted to confirm if you're safe and from the looks of it, you are now. So I'll be taking my leave now" Daniel said as she bid her goodbye and teleported away. It was obvious this guy didn't want to hide the fact he wasn't human from her. As soon as he was out of sight, Resa came out of her hiding place and went to Ariel."I didn't know you'll be here this early." Resa told Ariel. "Well, isn't it better?" Ariel asked and Resa nodded before they entered the house together. Ariel sat on the couch as Resa went into the kitchen to get her something to drink. "Here you go" she said handing Ariel a glass of orange juice. "Thank you" Ariel said taking it from Resa as she continued "Why are you back from work this early?" And Resa answered "The same reason you left". "Ohh" Ariel replied."So?" She asked Resa as the waited for the information she came here for to start spilling from Resa's mouth. "Ariel, why I was there that night when you saw Mike for the first time was because...I went to see your mother." Resa said.~~~Author~mimi~Related chapters

"I went to see your mother..Ariel, the thing is.. your mother's spirit is still lurking around and I'm the only one that sees her. She has tried multiple times to make you see her whenever you go to the garden but it doesn't work. She had always wanted me to tell you something but I had to wait till you're old enough" Resa continued"So what you're saying is the reason why I go to that garden is because my mother is calling out to me because she had always wanted to tell me something?" Ariel asked in realization and Resa nodded"Hmmm...so what's has she always wanted to tell me?" Ariel said and Resa sighed before answering"I don't really think you are ready for what you are going to hear Ariel." "It's fine. Tell me" the girl said with curiosity in her eyes. Resa rubbed the back of her neck and finally made the decision "Okayy...Ariel your mum was a witch" Resa said and the girl beside her froze and was lost in thoughts"Ariel?" Resa called out to her but got no reply."Ariel?" Resa s

Getting home,Sebastian walked into his luxurious house and called for the man he spoke to on the phone earlier. "Sir?" The man said as he walked up to Sebastian."Is the room ready?" Sebastian asked "Yes sir. Everything a woman needs in already set in the room" the middle aged man said. The man was in a Butler uniform and had his jet black hair slicked back. This was Dave, he has been Sebastian's Butler for years now."We'll be expecting a guest soon" Sebastian said as he started walking away.~~~~Ariel just got back home and was packing her things with the intention of Resa taking her to Sebastian's house the next day.Ariel couldn't lie, she was still shocked about how things changed in her life recently. Her? Ariel? A witch?. It was so funny because it was like saying an ant is the ruler of the jungle. Her day today was just a mess... catastrophe upon catastrophe. Just in one day.She sighed as she zipped her luggage and went into the bathroom. Entering into the bathroom, she lo
The Vampire's Weakness Compelled
After making that decision, Ariel took the book and read more of the content of the book. Her grandmother beside her, helped her to understand some things written in the book.After spending literally two hours learning about spells, Ariel finally decided to try and get some sleep after having such a hectic day. As she laid down on the bed, her grandma told her goodnight even though it was just 5:48pm.Drifting off to sleep was one of the most scariest thing for Ariel these days. Anytime she closes her eyes to sleep, she always felt like Mike was there watching her. Just like a horror movie, she heard his voice loud and clear in her head the moment she closed her eyes. "Run you little human...Run!!". Beads of sweat appeared on her forehead as she did her best to ignore that sinister voice in her head. Ariel started to wonder if that guy was really just a witch or he was also something else.Ariel was deep in thoughts and oblivious to her surrounding that she didn't know the moment a r
The Vampire's Weakness TRAPPED
Ariel didn't know the time she fell asleep on the soft bed but she was awakened by a strong presence in the room. She opened her eyes slowly and rubbed them "Ahh..when did I fall asleep?" She said stretching this time. Ariel's eyes looked like it wanted to pop out of the sockets when she remembered something "Ariel you are so careless!! How will you just let yourself sleep when you just came into his house!!" She kept on scolding herself. Unbeknownst to her, a handsome Korean god was staring down at her and was watching her curse herself for being so careless.Ariel finally got up from the bed and turned around and saw Sebastian looking at her. The look on his face was just so intimidating that Ariel didn't realize the moment she blurted these words out " He looks like a Tyrannosaurus Rex that's about to eat me" "Tyrannosaurus Rex? Me?" Sebastian asked her raising an eyebrow."Ariel how could you say that out loud to your boss?" She thought before saying "Sh*t!! Did I say that out
The Vampire's Weakness More than spells
Ariel went back to her room and called Resa asking her how she was going to make the arrangements for the trip and with the little but enough knowledge Resa had about it, she told Ariel how to get things done. The call took about ten minutes and Ariel ended it with "Thank you Resa"~~~~After Resa had guided Ariel on how to be the perfect assistant to Sebastian other than just bringing him coffee, Ariel quickly made arrangements for the trip."At least I have that done already. Now, it's time to practice all grandma told me" Ariel said to herself as she grabbed the spell book and walked out of her room. On her way down the stairs, she met Dave. "Sir, please do you guys have an empty space where I can practice some spells" Ariel said and the man replied with a smile "Follow me".Though Ariel still found it weird that she was a witch, she just had to accept it. Accept her new life. Ariel tagged along Dave until they got out of the house and arrived in a large garden at the back of the h
The Vampire's Weakness Fate?
After practicing few other spells, Ariel was pretty worn out and Dave led her back into the house and then to the dinning room. "You have practiced enough, you need something to eat" Dave said as he gestured Ariel to sit on the dinning chair. He then walked into the kitchen. In a few minutes, he came out holding a tray of steamed buns and ramen noodles. "Please eat" Dave said to her before walking away. "So he cooks too...nice. Gosh, I didn't even get to thank him. He's been so nice to me"Ariel said inwardly before eating.When she was done, she went straight to the room. As she lay on the bed, she realized something. When she slept here earlier, she didn't hear Micheal's voice. She slept peacefully for the first time in a long time. "That damned witch is really scared of Sebastian" she said as she smiled and closed her eyes preparing to sleep.~~~~~~Sebastian was in his library with a very stern expression plastered on his face. He stared at the two men before him "As you know, Mich
The Vampire's Weakness The feels
Morning finally came and Ariel yawned as she got up from the bed. She took her bath and the moment she opened the wardrobe, her eyes almost popped out of the sockets when she saw the clothes that were in there. Since she arrived as a package in Sebastian's home, she had never opened the wardrobe to see the clothes that he had Dave prepare for her. All the clothes were either too short or too exposed in certain areas. With Ariel's decent personality, she was not the type to wear these kind of clothes.She thought of wearing her old clothes but remembered that she washed them while talking her bath. With a towel still around her chest, she walked out of the room.On her way down the stairs, she met Xavier. The guy looked like he just woke up, being that he was still in his pyjamas. "Uhmm... Good morning. Do you know where Dave is?" Ariel asked biting her lips out of shame because she was in a towel. Xavier scanned her from her head to her toe and smiled before saying "I think he's in th
The Vampire's Weakness Last warning
Ariel and the butler Davd, came out of the kitchen and served the food on the table. Ariel was so embarrassed when she saw Sebastian as she remembered what she did earlier. He wasn't looking at her now but she felt his burning gaze was on her. When she wanted to place his food in front of him, she heard what she least expected "Run you little human...run!!" With that, her hand shook and the hot meal she was holding landed on Sebastian's thigh.Sebastian only sighed from the burning sensation on his thigh. He looked at Ariel and her hands were shaking. Dave rushed towards her and asked her what the problem was and she could only say "Micheal.... it's Mich..ael" her shaky voice troubled Dave but the other guys didn't look surprised at all. "Is he bothering you again?" Dave asked and Ariel nodded. She looked like a drenched scared stray cat at that point. Dave glared at Sebastian and Sebastian gave him a questioning look in return before standing up. Sebastian headed to his study. When

The Vampire's Weakness Meeting Enzo Russo
As they disposed the bodies of the dead security men, Enzo showed up. He had not been present the time Sebastian arrived because he went looking at the security footage. "I searched the security cameras but they definitely hacked into the system. The entire moment they were here was not captured by the security cameras" Enzo said to Sebastian. Sebastian didn't say a word but the deadly look in his eyes said everything he would have wanted to say. He was definitely going to get revenge!. Ariel felt weak in her knees as they disposed the bodies of the security men. Blood stains everywhere, organs gushing out of the bodies. She almost puked and then Enzo sighted her standing beside Sebastian with a constipated or rather disgusted expression. "Who's this beauty?" Enzo said as he stretched his hand out for Ariel to shake. Ariel was quite surprised by the act but she didn't feel irritated as she felt with Leonardo. This caramel skinned looking guy with an Italian ring to his voice was mo

"Stupido idiota!" Sebastian cursed in Italian as he drove out of the dock. Ariel glanced at him and wondered what made him so pissed, she wanted to ask but decided to keep shut at that moment. Sebastian was driving so fast and it made Ariel wish there were two seatbelts instead of one. She held until the seatbelt as she watched Sebastian reign curses in Italian. She couldn't keep up with the suspense anymore and decided to ask "Is there a problem?". Hearing her voice, Sebastian brought the car to a halt and Ariel feared she was going to fly out of the seat. After parking the car, Sebastian sighed and asked "What did he do to you?" His voice sounded scary making Ariel nervous and genuinely worried not just for herself but also worried about him. "What do you mean?" She asked. "What did Leonardo do or tell you?" Sebastian asked again. "Oh...he kissed my hand and said something in Italian I guess" Ariel said as she remembered that moment and the disgust was evident on her face. "Tha

Sebastian tried his best to clear his thoughts off Ariel and focus on other things like the mafia and his company. He called the capo once more to ask of Matteo's whereabouts. But still, the rouge Matteo was still nowhere to be found. Sebastian didn't want to be bothered by Matteo but he found his disappearance strange this time. Xavier focused on the business they had with Lorenzo De'Luca while Sebastian was occupied with being the Don of their mafia organization. That morning, Sebastian was to meet with an employee of a Russian billionaire who wanted to buy some of their arms. On his way out, Sebastian asked Ariel to come along with him. As they drove to their designated location, Ariel wondered why Sebastian had asked her to come along with him. The drive was insanely quiet because it was only Sebastian and Ariel who were present in the car then after what seemed like forever, Sebastian said "I need you to take care of some documentation when we get to our destination". "Oh okay"
The Vampire's Weakness Beautiful Ariel
When Ariel and Camilla were out of dinning room, Ariel stopped Camilla by touching her hand and Camilla turned around. Not willing to hide the disgust she felt towards Ariel, a scowl appeared on her face. Ariel ignored the girl's facial expression and went straight to the point. "You don't really need to take the dress off. We can go back and say that you like it and everything's fine" Ariel said and Camilla glared at Ariel for a while before saying "Didn't you hear him? No complaints or objections from us. I like to be obedient to my man". With that, Camilla continued walking until she got to the guest room. She had a sharp memory so this time, she didn't need a maid to guide her back to the room. After entering the room, she came out seconds later and dumped the green dress on the floor. Right in front of Ariel. Ariel didn't utter a word after Camilla called Sebastian "Her man". She decided not to talk about the issue anymore and just wear the green dress that's why she followed Ca
The Vampire's Weakness A sight he wanted to see
The next day came and Camilla was still weak. She opened her eyes and looked at the curtains as the sun rays peeked through them. She gathered strength and sat on the bed with her back resting on the headboard. She gently touched her neck which was still covered in dry blood but wasn't hurting as much as it did last night. She stood up from the bed and managed to walk to the bathroom to have her bath. After bathing, she found a hair dryer on the dressing table and used it on her wet hair. After her hair was completely dried, she sighed as she looked around the room to find the clothes she wore last night. They probably reeked of sweat and alcohol and she won't do herself any good if she wore them. While her mind was occupied with the thoughts of what she was going to wear, she heard a knock on the door and hesitantly went to open the door. Her eyes fell on an elderly woman who had a bag of clothes in hand. "Good morning Miss. I brought you some clothes" The woman said as she handed th

Sebastian wiped his lips after he drank till he was satisfied. He turned his head to look at Camilla who had turned pale. Standing up from the bed to go to the bathroom, Sebastian heard Camilla say with her voice sounding a bit cracked "You almost killed me". He turned to her once again to see her struggling to keep her eyes open and not fall unconscious. "But I didn't honey" Sebastian replied with a smirk plastered on his face as he carried his naked body into the bathroom. He spent some minutes in the bathroom and during that time, Camilla tried her best to gather strength and run away though she was very weak because Sebastian had almost drained all the blood she had in her body."Camilla you can do this, he's taking some time in there. Just run for it!" She said inwardly as she struggled to wear her shorts and bra that were on the edge of the bed and make a run for it. She was finally able to wear them seconds later but she had a hard time standing on her two feet. Every part of
The Vampire's Weakness Walked into the trap of a vampire
Sebastian had just gotten home with the blonde girl by his side. The servants stared at each other after seeing the girl that was beside him but they couldn't or rather, dare not say a word as Sebastian and the blonde girl walked past them to one of the guest rooms. After entering the room, Sebastian took off his shirt and trousers leaving him in his briefs and the girl's eyes were glued to his amazing body. Seeing the desire lingering in her eyes, Sebastian went to the bed to sit, with his back resting on the head board. "Come here" he ordered her and she walked slowly before climbing on the bed. "You can continue from where we stopped" Sebastian said to her. Deep down she was excited he wanted her as much as she wanted him so she was going to do whatever it takes to impress him once again and also capture his heart because from the looks of this house, he was loaded and bagging a man like him will do her good. Those were her thoughts as she stared at Sebastian. "I have your permiss

Xavier got back to the car where Sebastian was waiting for him. Sebastian chuckled lightly after seeing the look on Xavier face when Xavier got into the car. "You should have gone instead" Xavier said adjusting himself on the seat. "I'd take it that he was worse than what you researched on him right?" Sebastian said starting the car. "I've finally seen someone who's more self absorbed than you are. I should have congratulated him" Xavier muttered. "I'm not like that and you know it." Sebastian retorted as they headed back home. "Any news on Matteo yet?" Xavier asked. "No" Sebastian answered. The next day came and there still wasn't any news from Matteo. Sebastian wasn't bothered because he knew that Matteo will surely come around soon. Sebastian, Xavier and Enzo were out together as they had planned. Enzo wanted to go to a bar and have drinks but Xavier insisted they go to a club instead and Sebastian couldn't retort. After all he had agreed to loosen up and have fun with his brother
The Vampire's Weakness Pompous millionaire; Lorenzo De'Luca
Sebastian and Xavier were on their way to meet up with a young millionaire who wanted to invest in X&Y Corporation. After all, they didn't come to Italy only for their mafia stuff. Fortunately for them, the young millionaire Lorenzo De'Luca was in Italy at the time. So the timing was perfect. Ariel had arranged the documents they needed for this before they came to Italy so they decided to see the young man before going back home. Xavier was the one who communicated with Lorenzo about the investment. "Where exactly did he ask to meet up again?" Sebastian asked while driving.Xavier took his phone and checked the messages between himself and Lorenzo. "He asked to meet up at the coffee shop opposite St. Maria Catholic Church. Luckily, it's close by" Xavier said and Sebastian drove in that direction. They arrived at the coffee shop and Xavier was the one who went to meet Lorenzo. Lorenzo De'Luca wanted to invest in X&Y Corporation before the sales of the new product that was going to th
