Ariel was running as fast as she could to stay away from those things she feared so much.
Those unruly creatures, so scary and so real. Yes, they were real. Those creatures that no one thought existed. They hid in the dark, where no one will suspect and at once, attack!!.Ariel hated the fact that herself and the people of this world could do nothing to fight back. For those creatures were so full of bloodlust and the fact that they are after her now, is petrifying.Ariel continued to run from what seemed not to be there in the eyes of normal people but for her, she could clearly see them after her and they were so fast. She didn't even know how she could keep up with their speed.Sooner than later, a massive amount of light appeared and she was taken out of that place. She then found herself in her room. Save and sound. Untouched, not even a scratch."Thank heavens" she said as she wiped the cold sweat that were like beads on her forehead.This is the third time she was being pursued by those creatures this week. But as usual, the light always appears and takes her out of that place.Ariel dashed into her bathroom and filled the tub with cold water and deeped herself into it. Relief as last. She thought.~~~~~"We need to find a way and capture that damned human. She has found out about us and we need to wipe her memory or if needed dispose of her" A deep and sinister voice echoed in what seemed to be a carven.The other people around nodded in affirmation.~~~~~~Author~mimi~Ariel got out of the tub and dried herself. Walking towards her bed, she looked at the time and it was almost midnight. Ariel was an English girl with pearly white skin, her pure blood-like red wavy hair flowed from from her roots down to her waist giving a great contrast between her white skin and her hair. Her green eyes were so distinctive. Just like two emeralds stuck on her face and her pink plum lips were just...ahhhh.... inviting. But even with her extremely good looks, Ariel was almost 24 and still unmarried. She preferred adventure more than entering that boat called "marriage". Of course, people said alot of insultive words to her and sometimes even her grandmother. But Ariel never really paid attention to it all. Her willingness to find out more about those creatures superceded her willingness to get married.Ariel's grandmother, Riele, always told her that there was something special about her and she should not mind the nasty words of the people around and Ariel did jus
Ariel felt her knees getting weaker and weaker as time went by. She didn't introduce herself until the lady nudged her. Ariel's tongue was practically frozen. After a few seconds later, she spoke "Good morning Sir, I'm Ariel Parker"Sebastian just started at the young woman the entire time with his eyes locked on her. After she showed him her personal documents, he finally said a word "impressive". His deep voice was just so alluring. Ariel couldn't take her eyes off the man in front of her. His handsomeness...no..beauty was so sinful. His dark hair looked so silky and soft, his eyes were like two golden gemstones. Ariel had heard of the mysterious eye color of the CEO of "X &Y Corporation" but she expected it to be weird to look at but it wasn't. It was actually cold but beautiful. Ariel felt his eyes could draw anyone into it's abyss.Despite her mind was against looking at his sinful beauty, Ariel couldn't help herself. But after a few minutes later, she reminded herself of what she
After returning to the office with the coffee in hand, Ariel just watched the man as he drank the coffee slowly while going through some documents. Her job felt so boring. She just sat on a couch in the office waiting for his next order.Sebastian noticed how monotonous everything felt for her and he said "You can go out now. Take a break. I don't really need anything now". Ariel was momentarily enchanted by his voice before she said "oh ohk". Standing up from the couch, she decided to go to a restaurant opposite the company since she hadn't had breakfast yet.She walked out of the office and took a quick glance at the man to make sure he really didn't need anything. Sebastian only nodded his head and this was enough to convince Ariel that the man didn't need her help now. Crossing the street, Ariel got to the restaurant and ordered French toast and chocolate milk. Before she could start eating, two rugged looking men bumped into her and all the food fell on the floor."What's your p
Ariel went out to Theresa and asked her if there was a place in the building that she could be alone and the woman looked taken aback by Ariel's request. Did something happen in the office just now?"Ariel you know you have an injury. You aren't meant to be walking around. Why don't you go back in the office?" Theresa said"I would go anywhere but that office" Ariel said with her hands shaking momentarily. Theresa felt and saw her hands that shook and wondered if Sebastian had done anything bad to her that scared her. "Did he touch you?" Theresa asked and Ariel just looked at her feet and shook her head."It's complicated okay...." Ariel said still looking down and the lady could only rub her back in a motherly manner. For some reason, Ariel felt comfortable around this woman."It's okay. I'll take you to where you can be alone" Theresa said. The pair walked towards the elevator and went down to the last floor. Soon, they found themselves at the backyard of the huge building. The pl
After going back inside the building, Ariel asked Resa "What are you?"the woman didn't look that surprised as it was quite her fault Ariel was asking this now. She knew she shouldn't have lost her temper but anytime she sees that damned witch, she can't control her anger. Theresa took Ariel to a corner and said to her "Ariel, I know that you know you have some special abilities and those abilities help you figure out whose a normal human or a creature like Mike." Ariel's heart was racing as Resa left her in suspense for a while before continuing "You see, I'm a creature they despise, I'm a creature people run and hide from". looking into Ariel's eyes, she finally decided to drop the bomb "I'm a vampire, Ariel".Ariel's heart skipped a beat. She had read and watched movies about vampires. They are those blood sucking beasts. That's what Ariel felt about them, but after meeting Resa, Ariel didn't feel amiss with the woman until the moment her eyes changed color. She felt the woman was s
Coming out of the bathroom, Sebastian saw Ariel sitting on the couch in the office. He looked at her before going back to his desk.Few seconds later, Resa walked into the office and Ariel was quite startled this time. The way the woman walked into the office unexpected, startled her. Resa walked to Sebastian's desk and told him something in a low voice and Sebastian fixed his gaze on Ariel and her heart skipped a beat.Ohhh gosh...she hated when this guy did this! wait...not hate but..ahh...the way he suddenly fixes his gaze on her, always caught her at unaware and the way her heart always skips anytime he looks at her was just...she didn't actually have words for it.Sebastian still kept his gaze on her before he turned and looked at Resa and said something to her. Ariel didn't hear the conservation clearly, since they were talking in a low tone. Resa turned to Ariel and walked towards her. "Ariel, there's something I need to tell you..." Resa said and Ariel was worried a bit about
After 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".Ari
"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
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"
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 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
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
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
