Max's phone rang while he was focused on searching for news about Ell Food's success on his laptop. He was getting frustrated that the company could beat him again. No matter what, Max had to win this tough competition. For the sake of his parents' image and trust.

Max glanced at his cell phone on the table. Shada's name was on it. Max's finger tapped the phone's touch screen. Then the corner of his lip line pulled up when he read the chat from his girlfriend.

"How unusual for her to ask me to dinner." Max muttered softly, keeping his smile on his face.

"Wait a minute. Didn't he already realize I have more charm than that jerk?" Max made a smug face. He combed his hair neatly with his fingers.

In the middle of his busy thoughts, Max heard a knock on the door. He immediately invited the person to enter. Max wondered why Jennifer came back into his room.

Max was very upset with Jennifer's behavior just now. After all, she felt harassed. Moreover, Max was her boss.

    "Do you want a promotion, Jennifer?" Richard's thick eyebrows drew together. His hand was still lightly stroking that tantalizing thigh. "Who wouldn't want to get promoted, Richard?" Jennifer replied, turning her face up to face Richard. The distance between their faces was so close that they could feel the warm touch of each other's breath. "You want it too, don't you?" she asked as she gently rubbed Richard's firm chest. Richard looked silent and thoughtful for a moment. Suddenly he smiled. "Let's work together, Jennifer. We form a symbiotic mutualism. I will help you. And you, too, will benefit me." Richard said with sparkling eyes. Jennifer only responded with a half smile. She felt that if cooperation would make her always close to Richard, this was beyond her plans. She just wanted information, but what could be done? Richard should be able to benefit Jennifer the most. Her mind was intimidated. Suddenly Richard faced Jennifer. His hands lightly touched her cheeks. Jennifer e

    Suddenly Demian's nose smelled something wrong. This scent was not that of an ordinary human, but rather a rancid odor that came from his countrymen, the vampires. But ... was it possible that there were vampires in this house besides him? Demian's mind was raging.Demian's sharp and agile eyes circulated all corners of Shada's room. While his sharp nose tracked towards the source of the scent. Soon he discovered that the scent was coming from the stairwell and surrounding area."Did you hear me, Demian?" repeated Shada, snapping Demian out of his wondering thoughts."Uh─yes. I'm going to go. Before that, answer my one question." Demian grinned at Shada who was ready to stab him. He knew Shada hated it when he stalled for time and seemed to disobey her. Shada rolled her eyes lazily."Demian, come on! My friend is waiting for me downstairs!" Now Shada glared at Demian who was chuckling even more."Hahaha... okay. Then I'll ask you tomorrow. Or later." Demian teased with a whisper in th

    "Shada! Oh my!" Ruth shrieked in the distance.Ruth immediately ran over to Shada. She quickly helped Shada up, and then took her to the restroom. Before leaving, Ruth's sharp eyes darted towards Jennifer. Jennifer was silent. After Ruth's eyes turned away, she gave a faint smile.Feel it, Shada! That's just the beginning. Her mind was filled with triumph.Ruth walked quickly to lead Shada to the toilet. Shada was silent and her face was deathly pale. She was traumatized by the redness of her skin and the throbbing pain that burned most of her hands.Ruth quickly turned on the water faucet at the sink. Deftly, she grabbed both of Shada's hands and put them into the cold water of the sink. She was quite nervous."Be patient. After this I promise, you'll be fine." Ruth tried to calm Shada down. Her hand gently rubbed her shoulder."Thank you, Ruth. It's a good thing you're there. I can't imagine being alone. I was embarrassed." Shada grimaced. She looked at her shirt, which was stained

    "Hmm? What do you want to ask?" Now the frown on Shada's forehead became even more pronounced.Demian got up from his lying position. He looked at Shada with a serious expression. But Shada couldn't guess what he was going to ask."Who was your friend who stayed here last night?" Demian's beautiful eyes shifted to explore the contents of Shada's room. Suddenly, Shada followed Demian's line of sight while scrunching her waist."Ruth. Why?" Shada turned back to Demian. She looked confused. Shada blinked her eyes rapidly several times.Suddenly Demian sighed heavily. He had expected it. Demian only knew that the most different friend in Shada's life was that woman.Demian then nodded his head while biting his lower lip tightly. Looking worried. What was the purpose of Ruth being here? Was it just an accident that brought them together?Shada was even more astonished by the attitude of the man in front of her now. "Why? Is there a problem?"Shada's eyes pursued Demian's upset face. She wa

    The man pulled his hair in frustration. His feet had been walking here and there, but he still couldn't find peace. Meanwhile, his heart was beating fast. He also massaged his temples, dizzy from what he had just seen.Max stared at the split monitor screen as he recalled what had been captured by his two senses. Max saw a man he believed to be Demian enter Shada's room through the minimalist balcony.After that, not long afterward, Shada was seen coming to Demian. Although Demian was not very visible, Max could tell that they were talking, until finally Demian got up.Max couldn't even stare at the monitor when Demian pulled Shada's hand closer to his body. Afterward, Demian carried Shada quickly.Even Demian's speed could not be captured by the CCTV footage that was on. Max was furious and immediately threw a wine bottle at the monitor so that the screen immediately shut down and cracked."Shit! Watch out!" Max continued to curse, occasionally kicking the legs of a nearby table or c

    "What do you mean, Shada?" Ruth could not believe her own sense of hearing. Especially when the woman in front of her accused Ruth of being a vampire. She looked at Shada nervously, searching her mind for a justification."Oh, come on. You must know what I mean. Are you really a vampire?" repeated Shada in a half-whisper. Shada fully studied Ruth's face.Ruth shook her head firmly. "How do you know about vampires? I'm not a vampire." Ruth quickly denied. Demian must have told her. Ruth's mind immediately guessed."I met one. Don't lie to me. I don't like dishonesty." Shada's eyes were sharp. She showed how serious she was.Ruth sighed. She closed her eyes tightly, to the point that her pale forehead showed very clear frown lines."Well, okay. That's right, you're not wrong," she admitted as she raised both hands in surrender. Ruth then leaned forward slightly and looked at Shada earnestly."Keep this matter a secret from anyone, Shada. I mean it." Ruth's hand reached out to take Shada

    Max was increasingly unable to bear all the pain that crept up his nerves. He began to writhe strangely. Max briefly glanced at Richard who was drunk and unconscious. Right now, Max was the only one who could help himself. Max decided to rush out of the room as the anxiety began to suffocate and dominate his body. He ran with sweat pouring down his white forehead. His breath caught, but it was a relief to quickly find a sign that read toilet there. Although not with full awareness. But just as Max was about to enter the restroom, he bumped into a woman. "So-sorry," he said, trying to regain control of his body. Both hands were raised in front of his chest in an apologetic gesture. Max couldn't see the woman's face clearly. He was about to walk past her, but her hand stopped him. "Sir, don't go in there. That's the ladies' room," whispered the woman who was now approaching him, making Max's body shake and react with strange sparks. The woman was half teasing Max. She was wearing a

    "Are you sure you're going to see him now?" asked Shada doubtfully. She was also a bit annoyed if Demian left his tea without finishing it. That meant Demian didn't appreciate her.In contrast to Shada, Demian was even more certain. It was easy to trace Ruth's whereabouts in this city. But the problem was, she could also evade him at any time without much difficulty."I'm sure of it." Demian said firmly. His dark eyes stared straight ahead.Then Demian turned to Shada. "Are you coming? You said you wanted to eavesdrop on our conversation." Demian's teasing was immediately followed by a scowl on Shada's face."No, it's okay. I'm not in the mood." Shada looked away and folded her arms across her chest. Demian, who heard the subtle snort from the breathing system of the woman beside him, now laughed.Demian changed his body position to face Shada so that he could look at her more carefully. The more he looked, the funnier Shada's demeanor became. Demian grinned, wanting to tease her more

    The image of a handsome and dashing man flashed at the scene of the accident where two cars collided violently. Meanwhile, he also heard the loud sirens of police cars and ambulances blaring in his ears.He hated how noisy car sirens were. His bright bronze eyes were strained to observe the extent of the damage to Shada's car. He snorted, his breath caught. It was unfortunate why this had to happen to Shada. Especially since he couldn't meet the woman last night.His eyes then shifted to a man in a hat with severe injuries all over his body. Especially on his head. The man was closed and his hands drooped weakly as the health workers moved him into the ambulance. It was confirmed that the man died on the spot.Demian sighed heavily. Fortunately, he was not too late. The impact on Shada's head was already bleeding profusely. Luckily, the man's car had hit the back of Shada's car. If the badly wrecked part had been where Shada was driving, she would have been beyond help.As soon as the

    "What do you mean?" Shada turned her body around and faced Ruth fully."What does Max have to do with Jennifer?" Shada's dark brown eyes blinked rapidly. Curiosity suddenly got the better of her.Ruth sighed again. Suddenly the woman lost her oxygen supply, as if she was being attacked by asthma. She then held both of Shada's shoulders firmly. "This is for your own good, Shada. But there's something inexplicable going on between the two of them. There's something you don't know."Shada looked skeptically at Ruth's very serious face. Even now, the woman's dark eyes were red and teary.Ruth is definitely not playing around. Shada thought.But Shada preferred to deny it. Max was not as bad as Ruth said. She had known Max for about six years. He was faithful and never had anything to do with any woman other than her. Except Morris, of course.Shada shook her head softly and folded her forehead. "You must be wrong, Ruth." Her gaze was incredulous.Ruth immediately snorted and moved in frus

    "Tell me what you're working on in this document!" Leo said sharply to Shada who turned to stare at the man.Shada then strode closer, wanting to confirm what the man who was pointing at some parts of the document meant.Shada frowned, not understanding. The parts that Leo was pointing out had been carefully examined and read many times. Shada could guarantee that there were no mistakes in those parts. After all, Shada had made the same document not just once or twice."What do you mean, Mr. Leo?" asked Shada confused.Leo laughed sarcastically while rubbing his face in frustration. It seemed like he wasn't talking to an old employee, but an eight-year-old elementary school student. Meanwhile, Shada was already starting to get annoyed because Leo's attitude seemed to trivialize her."Let me check again." Shada half-snorted, about to take the paper back. But it was prevented by Leo's burly hand."That's not necessary! You should have checked it before it was even printed!" Leo snapped,

    Ruth swallowed her saliva with difficulty, too tense to believe a fact she didn't want to believe. How could Max, who was so cold and loyal, be tempted by Jennifer? Besides, what did Shada lack?Shada is more naturally beautiful, good character, always positive. Anyway, Shada is better than Jennifer. Yes, although Ruth had to admit, there were some similarities between the two that she couldn't explain. Other than the color of their eyes of course.Ruth immediately froze and pressed her lips together during the meeting. Oh, why was she the only one who knew that. Ruth was so depressed about keeping such a big secret. Damn it!Ruth averted her eyes, unwilling to look at Max or Jennifer. She already had an ill-feel for the snake woman from the start. Now it was even more so. Ruth had even lost respect for Max. What an asshole! Ruth said to herself.Ruth occasionally stole glances at Shada who was listening to some reports solemnly and calmly. Ruth was devastated. It was a pity to see he

    "No!" He groaned as he looked at Shada.Even though his eyes were fixed on Shada who was fast asleep. But more than that, Demian was looking at the future. His future and Shada's.Demian was sad and disappointed. He witnessed a fragment of Shada who was angry and getting away from him. She didn't want to see Demian anymore. Suddenly Demian's chest was tight. He took in as much ambient air as he could. Trying to calm down by filling his lungs with oxygen. What had he done to make Shada stay away from him? Demian tried to analyze.Demian looked back at Shada who was still asleep with a wide-eyed gaze. He was frustrated because he couldn't find any possible wrongdoing on his part."What should I do?" Demian whispered as he gently touched the door that reflected a faint shadow of his handsome face.Demian gave up. He understood that he could do nothing. The future is something mysterious and cannot be prevented. In the meantime, all Demian could do was avoid small mistakes that he might a

    Instantly Demian bent his face. What did he just say? Paid in full? It couldn't. Demian's unacceptable words echoed throughout his mind.The reason is, because of Darwin his life has changed instantly. Maybe his old life wasn't as good as what he feels now. But deep inside, Demian did not want and did not accept a destiny that changed his life 180 degrees overnight. It would only put more distance between him and his first love. It could even be lost.Vampires could never be with humans. It was clearly written there. Coexistence might still be possible. The vampires in the human world always concealed their identity. Working and eating like ordinary humans.But to marry with humans and produce cute children? It felt like nature would reject even more firmly.Vampires and humans seemed to live in the same place, but in different dimensions. Like a coin with two different sides.Demian brushed the nape of his neck and moved awkwardly. “I make no promises. If I can, I'll bring it here.”

    The sky darkens, signaling nightfall. The stars hang and scatter across the vast landscape of the night sky. Their beauty is like competing and coexisting with the moon.Tonight the moon above the balcony of Shada's house is perfectly round, very beautiful. But it still makes Shada sad. Ironic indeed.Shada had been waiting for Demian to come. But until now the man had not appeared in front of her. Shada stood on the balcony while moving uncomfortably. Her fingers tapped on the wall dividing her balcony, occasionally looking back. She looked at the clock on the wall, which was already eleven o'clock at night.“Tsk... where are you?” muttered Shada uneasily.She was repeatedly fooled by the sound of the night breeze caressing the trees in front of her. She thought it was Demian. It turned out to be a normal movement between the wind and the trees.More and more, Shada was disturbed. Demian hasn't come yet either. She had been waiting for him for more than an hour. Shada wanted to ask m

    “What did you say, Ruth?” Shada frowned, not understanding. Although Ruth's voice was low, Shada could catch what her friend was talking about.Ruth choked up, not realizing the words from her mouth that had just slipped out.“Eh? No─it's nothing. I mean you shouldn't feel sorry for other people, Shada. Especially Jennifer. Like I said before, you have to be careful,” said Ruth rather confused. Hearing Ruth's explanation, Shada sighed heavily.“I know you don't like Jennifer and Richard. But, Ruth... Jennifer just had a disaster. Do you really have to tell me that?” Shada couldn't believe Ruth's hatred had blinded the woman's heart. Even her sense of caring had been dulled.“You have no idea what you're dealing with, Shada. Trust me.” Ruth snapped with emphasis.Shada screwed up her face. She was fed up with Ruth's cautionary attitude, as if everyone around Shada needed to be wary. But, wait a minute─“Wait a minute. Do you have any special abilities like Demian?” Shada asked suddenly

    A twenty-year-old young woman in an elongated white coat was startled by the results of the object she had just examined. She was surprised enough to cover her mouth.Afterwards, she decided to immediately bring the results of her research to be reported to the head of the laboratory where she worked. The girl's black hair was in a neat ponytail. Her narrow eyes portrayed a clearly defined anxiety.Her steps were quick and firm towards one of the rooms in this predominantly white place. She walked through a long hallway until she arrived in front of a door. She knocked loudly a few times until a handsome middle-aged man opened the door.“What's wrong? Is something going on?” asked the man in front of her. The man could tell from the light-skinned girl's worried look.Even her voice was melodious. The man's light bronze-colored eyes were calm yet firm. The combination of his golden blonde hair and pale skin added absolute artistic value to a mature man in his forties.“Here, Mr. Darwin
