"Where am I?" Violet said in a daze.
Xavier immediately went to her and hold her hand, firmly, as he heard her voice.
"I'm sorry for being late, my love."
Violet and Maria are astonished by his bluntness, but Xavier tends to be straight forward. He looks warmly into Violet's eyes and said:
"I miss you."
Violet bemused with a sudden confession, yet her heart skips a beat. Her pinkish face starts to warm as Xavier never break the eye contact and looking at her with warmth.
"You must be scared, Rebecca. I wish I was able to come a bit earlier before he did this to you." Xavier said with apologetic voice.
"Rebecca?" Maria said in confusion.
"You know Rebecca?" Violet slowly shifted to sitting position.
Xavier a bit startle and choose to remain silent.
"OF COURSE, HE KNOWS HER. SHE IS HIS MATE!"
"SHUT UP, OLD MAN!" Xavier said in a harsh tone.
Violet facing backwards only to see her teacher's bloody face with swollen pair of eyes and his teeth cover with red fresh stains. Violet cannot believe her eyes as she sees his vulnerable state.
"ARE YOU OKAY, MR LEWISHAM?! OH MY GOD, WHO DID THIS TO YOU?!" She instantly went to his side and help him to sit position while resting his back at the couch.
"Your mate did this to me!" Mr. Lewis pointed at Xavier and plaster a small smirk on his face.
"Rebecca, you shouldn't treat him with care!"
Xavier intense looks make her shiver to her spine. Yet, Violet still finds Xavier's words are unbelievable.
"What is going on here? Why Mr. Lewis is badly injured and why you stop me from helping him? Are you the one who did this to him?" She said with a scowled face.
"Yes, I did." Without much thought, Xavier confesses his deed.
Speechless!
Violet face instantly cover with disappointment.
"I can't believe that you can be this bad!" Her words somehow pierce Xavier's feelings, but he never budges from his position.
Maria, who feels bad towards Xavier, automatically exclaimed.
"V, Xavier did all of this because of you! I know that you might not believe this, but Mr. Lewis kidnapped you and torment you. You're hurting and he saved you!" Maria interrupted.
"Kidnapped? That's nonsense, Maria! Why would Mr. Lewis do that?" Violet giggle a bit but as soon as she sees Maria's nervousness, she stops abruptly.
"But why? Did I do something bad?" Violet ask.
"Let me tell you then,"
Maria explained to her in every single detail why she was held captive, but she keeps a secret of her identity.
Violet is shocked by the news, which makes her speechless.
"What do you want from my mother?" Violet gritted her jaws.
Mr. Lewis let out of big sighs. He stands on both his feet and brushes off the dirt from his clothes.
"How many times I should repeat this? Instead of that, you should worry about yourself, Violet."
"What do you mean?" Violet ask in curiosity.
"You want to know? HA, YOU JUST KILL SEVERAL MEN LAST NIGHT WITH YOUR BARE HANDS! I BET YOU WENT ALL OUT YESTERDAY!" Mr. Lewis laughs out loud.
All of them looks at Violet, who is even more bewildered with the situation. Unconditionally, she stares at her hands that vivid with tremulousness, and out of the blues, she recalled a hazy vision of someone's bloody neck and a bloody slender hands.
"ARGH!!" She screams in fears, and her eyes brim with tears.
At once, Mr. Lewis rushes over to Violet and put a sharp knife at her neck.
"YOU--!" Xavier said.
"Hey, don't be so dramatic!" He scolded Xavier. "There is more shocking news you need to know, Violet. I can't believe that you are so unfortunate to be surrounded by nasty creatures."
Mr. Lewis whispers to her right, ear while pointed his hand at Xavier and Maria. "He is a Vampire and your sweet little friend is a witch. What a fantastic meeting we have!"
Violet breathing hard as her face clouded with mix emotions.
"YOU BETTER STOP!" Xavier unable to stay sane as he sees his mate struggling for life.
"DON'T MOVE OR I WILL KILL HER!" Mr. Lewis warns Xavier.
"YOU CAN'T KILL HER!" A woman voice can be heard.
All of them facing the door to see Ms. Matthew, Lewis and police officers.
"VANESSA?!" Mr. Lewis shocked by her sudden appearance and slowly, drag away the knife from Violet's neck.
"Mom, Lewis?" Violet said.
*20 Minutes ago
A spectacular view of the sunset with a perfect combination of colours between orange and yellow, portray a heavenly sight of the evening, meanwhile, the fiery pits can be seen which is equalize someone's burning heart.
Ms. Matthew is overwhelming with madness towards Lewisham Karl, who kidnapped her daughter. She can only think of the worst possibility that can happen to her daughter, which drive her nuts. With mix emotions of worried and incensed, she wears a simple black dress that brings out her fighting spirits to fight Lewisham.
Ms. Matthew walks into the living room and was greeted by Lewis and his two other familiar friends. She takes her seat on the comfy black couch and landing her ears to hears the plan.
"Ms. Matthew, we will stick to the plan that we have discussed just now but if it is failed, we have prepared another plan that can save you and Violet from any danger," Lewis said with determination.
"All right."
Ting! Ting!
Lewis's phone vibrated and a message from Maria popped up on his screen. Without further a due, he opened the message and receive S.O.S message which turns out to be Violet whereabout.
"Stop, change of plan! I know Violet whereabout."
A few minutes of drive and they finally arrive at the deserted apartment.
-------------------------
"HOW COULD YOU HURT HER?!" Ms. Matthew fuming in madness.
"NO! I'M NOT HURTING HER!" Mr. Lewis tries to persuade her. He approaches Ms. Matthew with a big smile, as seems to meet an angel from the sky.
"I miss you so much." He said.
As he gets closer, Lewis signal to the police officers to capture him. Lewisham struggles to free himself from being captives.
"What are you doing men? Who let you cuff me up?"
"You are under arrest as you attempt on hurting other civilians. " Lewis said.
Lewisham stares at Ms. Matthew face, pleading to save him.
"Vanessa, tell them that I'm innocent." He pleaded.
"Why should I? You were about to kill my only daughter!" She put strains on her voice.
"HOW MANY TIMES I SHOULD TELL YOU THAT I'M NOT?! YOU'RE REALLY DRIVE ME CRAZY!" He screams at her face.
"You, psychotic man." She glared at him.
"ALL RIGHT, I'M SORRY. Please let me go, I just want to be with you."
"Karl, we are just a friend, no more than that."
"WHY IT CAN'T BE ME? WHY YOUS CHOOSE MATTHEW INSTEAD OF ME? I'm THE ONE WHO KNOWS YOU FIRST AND ALWAYS WITH YOU!" He exclaimed.
"BECAUSE I LOVE HIM! I just like you as a friend and I like him as my other half."
"CAN'T YOU JUST BE WITH ME?! I LOVE YOU FOR THESE ENTIRE TIME. DO YOU STILL CAN'T FORGET THAT PATHETIC MAN?" Mr. Lewisham said in a harsh tone.
SMACK!
Ms. Matthew slaps him across his face. A vivid red mark plaster on his cheek, makes his eyes widen.
"Do not say him pathetic! He is a perfect man as well as a perfect father! Hence, it is your fault that she can't even meet her dad!"
She let out a long sigh.
"Karl—I will forgive you for everything. So, I hope you will live a happy life after this." Ms. Matthew bid her last farewell to Lewisham Karl with a warm smile, as he was slowly dragged away by the police officers.
They step out from that place. After Lewis exchange some words with his subordinate, finally Lewisham Karl drive his ways to the police station with sadness.
"Are you okay, baby?" Lewis goes to Violet with a concerned face.
"I'm fine—thanks to Xavier and Maria," Violet said in a soft voice.
"Thankfully, you call us Maria. But, how did you know Violet's whereabout?" Ms. Matthew said.
"It is Xavier, who told me..." Maria said.
Lewis instantly stares at Xavier.
"Oh, thank you so much, Xavier, but how did you know this?"
"He is Violet's mate!" Maria exclaimed without much thought.
Ms. Matthew and Lewis stunt!
Xavier feels the heated stare from Lewis and instantly, exchange looks.
Lewis mutter to himself, "Vampire!"
