Chapter 97
Debra's Pov
What's wrong with me today? Kristen's just staff and she was doing whatever she was supposed to do. Why am I getting so jealous of her today?
The way she was talking with him, the way she was looking at him, was making me insecure and angry. And Karien, what's his problem?
I was observing him from the morning, he kept staring at her. I don't remember him observing her before like the way he did today.
And Kristen, why does she have to appear everywhere he goes? I was dumbfounded as I had no idea what was going between them.
Now he has gone for two hours already. He told me he would return in two hours but it's almost three hours. Where the hell was he having a meeting so late?
"Any problem, Debra." Kristen appeared in my cabin unexpectedly.
What timing she has? I was just thinking about her and she was already here.
I smiled hesitantly, stopping whatever I was doing.
"Ahhh... No, I am fine.
Chapter 98Debra's Pov"I.......I...observed her while she said I called her and told her to wait. I swear Deb, I have never done that." He said.He was correct, anyone would catch her lie including Karien. He was a smart man, and he would know already that she was lying to him and also me."Ya... But let her go. She must have had some problems going through and forgotten what was real and what was not." I uttered as I wanted to let the past be past and forget that part from my life.Kristen was my colleague and she had been helpful to me since the first day so I can't skip the fact she helped me before and, judge her because of her small lie... I should at least give her a chance to explain or a sincere apology."That's my girl, You really have a big heart, Deb. No doubt you are my girlfriend." He replied when I suddenly pushed him away."Ohh really Karien. So that's the reason why you didn't notify me about arriving late cause you t
Chapter 99Karien's Pov"You okay?" I raised a question to her when she was crying out my name in the middle of the night.She was fine before I left her in the room. It was strange when I heard her calling my name. I thought she was attacked by some werewolves but when I entered her room, she was wet in her sweats.She murmured continuously as she did before in the mansion. She must be having nightmares again. I shook her and she hardly came to consciousness.When she did, she stares at me like she wasn't expecting me to be there. She sobbed as she saw me and squeezed me in her arms."You are alive, you are alive, Karien" she continues to repeat it after finding me in her room."Of course, I am alive. Why? You want me to die?" I said and she jerked and stared at me."No...never... You can't die without my permission. I won't let you die." She replied pulling me towards her again.I didn't know what she dreamed about but
Chapter 100Karien's Pov"Stop teasing Deb, get in the car, we are getting late," I said realizing it was already late for the office.She shrugged as she get inside the car and rolled her eyes. For as long as I remember she was the one who was shouting for getting late.And she had forgotten it so quickly. She pulled the seat belt forcefully and put it on. Woh, why does this girl get upset so easily?My phone rings right before I was going to start the car. And that's where my wait was over. Call from the Stephen. Great.I hurriedly picked the phone and muttered, "Did you get it?""What do you think? Of course, I got it. Now be ready to do what you promised." Thank Devil, he did it."Alright. Think of it as done. Now tell me when has she fixed the appointment?" I asked jumping to the time as I was eager to meet her."Sharp midnight, Friday night. She said she can cancel the meeting if you don't get in time." He said war
Chapter 101Debra's PovEventually, I got the chance to see Teresa. I missed her so much and I had a lot to chat with her, starting with our relationship.After work, we both ride for the mansion. It was forecasted to snow around the day tomorrow and the Karien meeting was to be held tonight.Gladly, it wasn't snowing tonight cause it had, Karien could be stuck in the way to the mansion. Our car was parked outside the mansion in the corridor.Time to give a surprise to Teresa, I had requested Karien, not to inform Teresa about our arrival. So it was the secret plan.The bell was pressed by the Karien, we were ready to surprise her and I was so excited for that. I was biting my nails and waiting for her reaction.Great, I can scent her fragrance and hear her footstep getting to the door."Do we really need to do this?" He whispered as he was not that excited about my plan."Shhhhhhhhhh.....stay quiet. She is coming." I sa
Chapter 102Karien's PovLone cave at the end of the Amber City, depth forest before I arrive at the Cave. Darkness, the moon was hidden behind the clouds, reflecting no lights to the earth.Emptiness through the whole journey and complete silence to give goosebumps. I rode my car slower at the speed of human normal paces.GPS guided me to the location Stephen had sent me. The first time to be there. Nervous and scared too. Not because of darkness but from the darkness within the forest.The dark energy around the forest was giving me a chill. And as I got to the destination, I saw the two flames burning at the entrance giving a bit of light to my eyes.Light from fire attracted e towards the Cave, as I got off the car to get inside it. The dark energy became more intense and powerful as I stepped inside the entrance.This was how it feels to stop in a witch's place. Through the entrance, the fire was lightened at the side of the path
Chapter 103Karien's Pov"How do you....." Before I questioned her she cuts me in the middle, showing her right-hand palm to me."Don't ask how I know that. I know things that you can't even imagine with your intelligence. And regarding the card, it's just not an ordinary card, it's a card that can read your future, your present, your deepest darkest secret." She explains, gawking her eagle's eyes on me.I didn't utter a word and continued listening to her. I guess it would be better for me to listen to her first and object on the matter that I wouldn't be cleared."As the card, your nightmares are the obstacles that are not letting you reach your destiny. The girl is your destiny and the one who is being your obstacle is evil. Don't let it step on your way to destiny. It's not easy to get there. You both must go through many hardships and difficulties.""What if I end the obstacles now?" I interrupted as I thought if Jake was the only probl
Chapter 104Karien's Pov"You have no option for thee, you will return to me, you have to and you will... You are already in debt to me." She whispered as I walked away from there.My phone rings as soon I stepped out, it was from her. Damn, I forgot to call her."Yes, babe. You alright?" I muttered as nothing happened, talking actively.She starts to cry over the phone as soon as I uttered. What the hell? Why was she crying all of sudden?"Why are you crying? Did anything happen when I wasn't there? Tell me, Deb, please." I said terrified and worried.I walked at a faster pace and ran to the car without delay. My mind couldn't decide what should I do after hearing her cry. I had just left her for a few hours and she was already troubled.I hurriedly hopped inside the car and start the engine and rode.She slowly calms herself down after so many attempts to ask her about the reason to make her cry."I am okay. It
Chapter 105Karien's PovRaising my leg slowly without sound, I stepped ahead of the tree where the sound was coming. Sound of running and leaping towards me.If only I had the powers like Debra had, I would immediately know who it was but only with my earshot powers it's was it no help to me.It might be someone who was coming to charge at me or some predators who scented me and came to get me. I should be ready before it attacks me. Let's see how stronger you are.Transforming myself into vampire form, I stayed alarmed waiting for that creature to approach me. I hid behind one of the big trees in the woods at the side of the road.My watchful eyes were waiting for the sights of its entry. From a few meters away on the highway, appears a subject, quite similar to a human. As it was a little bit far, I couldn't recognize it before it jogs a little closer to me.And as it got closer to me, I couldn't believe my eyes. It was a girl, run
