The Vampire King のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 71 - チャプター 80

Ezekiel pushed her off the path and jumped away himself. The car hit a stationary pole and spurted to a halt.Aurora was stunned and she could only gape at the car from her position on the floor."Come on, let's go," Ezekiel prompted in haste, pulling her up. They ran back to school. They only stopped once they were safely inside the school.She crouched down at the gate, trying to catch her breath. She had a feeling it wasn't a coincidence. She had a strong feeling Sebastian's father had something to do with it."I don't think it's anything to worry about," Ezekiel spoke, sounding a bit unsure, "the car just lost control.""Yeah," she nodded, not wanting him to suspect a thing, "just lost control. We're late, let's head to class."*"Where were you?" Cynthia questioned during lunch break, "you are never late.""Met a new friend, nothing much," she said, sliding into a seat.Cynthia stared at her, seeming confused. She still found it hard to talk freely with her long time friend and s

Aurora looked around her new room, a room she shared with three other girls. It was spacious and gave each the privacy they needed. She had the bed at the corner, nearest the wall.Zik had helped get her things to her new room before going to find his. He was good help.Her roommates were out. Joselyn and Phoebe were in their second year while Anastasia was a fresher like her.She settled down to unpack."Clothes…"She put up her clothes in the large wardrobe she shared with her other three roommates. It was segmented so there was no danger of mixing. Then she arranged her shoes next. Her cosmetics came up on the little vanity next to her bed.Opening the box where her books and stationeries where kept, she noticed an odd looking little suitcase inside."Okay, I didn't put this inside my box," she muttered, taking it out. It was quite heavy. She grew curious. She unlocked it.Her eyes popped out.Money. Arranged neatly in rows filled the little box."Did mum leave me extra?" She wonde

Aurora Maria Grazia brought out the keys to her apartment and unlocked the door. She picked up the bag of groceries on the floor and staggered in, burdened with the weight of the bags in her hand."Oh good God," she muttered, dropping them all at once on the floor. She shut the door and carried the bags one after the other to the kitchen."Enough foodstuffs for the rest of the month, thank you Jesus," she sighed with content, washing her hands.She loved the house. The neighborhood gave her the peace and tranquility she needed and it was quite close to her workplace.She ventured into her study to get some work done. At least, two hours of work before she prepared something to eat. Zik was going to come by later in the evening and she wanted to treat him to a feast.She unpacked her hair as she sat at her desk. She was happy, things were working out well but there was still an emptiness in her heart that refused to be filled up. It had been years now, over six years and she could bare

Aurora ventured out of her first class of the day. Teaching a bunch of hormonal youths was quite tasking, coupled with the fact that the male students were too hypnotized by her beauty to concentrate on her teaching."Hey, Mark," she greeted her lecturer colleague."Rora, how was your lecture?" He smiled at her."Great," she settled at her desk opposite his. There were three occupying the office. She, Mark and Isabel. She was the youngest lecturer in the entire university and she took pride in it. Mark was in his middle forties, Isabel was in her late thirties while she was just about to clock twenty-five.Her phone rang. Mother."Good morning, mum. How are you doing?"She had never returned home since she left to attend college."I'm definitely not great, Aurora. Why won't you return home? Why won't you take over our company? Instead you waste your talents as a mere lecturer. I understand you are still in your rebellious years but th

"What would you like to eat?" Sebastian asked as he and Aurora walked out of the museum together."Whatever you eat," she replied, adding a wink after.She stared at him as he drove, admiring his handsome features. She couldn't see his eyes because they were fixed on the road ahead but she could already imagine them gleaming with happiness and twinkling with mischief. The ticking of his jaw had her know that he was uncomfortable with her stares."Do I make you uncomfortable, Bastian?" She asked, shifting closer.His jaw ticked once more."You make me nervous," he answered.She grinned."Why?"He glanced at her."You know why.""Did you date any girl while you were away?" "No.""Why? You didn't find any attractive?""I found a few attractive, actually," he said, glancing at her again, "but not enough to keep me awake at night."She blushed."I guess we both make each other nervous," she muttered, looking away."Did you date anyone?"She scoffed, "like you don''t know my entire activit
