Zachary Pov
"Bye," she said and went in on the elevator as the elevator closed I wave at her. I should have known she's working here. I turn my head and stare at Psalm's door.
"I wonder why he didn't kill her?" I went in at Psalm's office and saw him sitting at his swivel chair, Calmly?!.
"Psalm?" I called.
He looks at me and stares at me, what's wrong with this guy?.
"I appreciate it if you talk or something?" I said and place the documents at his table.
"Like what?" He answered. It's definitely the curse his eyes are still blackish red but the way he replied is Psalm.
"Psalm do you feel like killing somebody right now?" I seriously asked.
"Surprisingly not," he answered.
"But that scent," he added. Amberly? Does he mean Amberly's scent made him calm?.
"Why what about it?" I asked.
"I like it, have I seen her before?" He asked.
"Yes, from the flower shop," I replied and sat on the couch.
Psalm's memory keeps lapping every time his curse appears. His three personalities couldn't catch up that's why his memory got cut off every now and then. The cold psalm who likes to bloodbath, the Kind psalm who likes to work at the flower shop, and lastly Psalm the one who he really is. It took me years to find out who with those three is the real him, we all did.
"By the way, we found out something," I said.
"Spill it," he replied.
"Calvin is back in the country," I said. "Yesterday at 12:40 am, he arrives at the airport with his mens."
"Looks like the rat is back to the cat's den," he said and smirked.
"Have you still not found anything about Aamon's sister?" He asked.
"I... I still haven't," my voice cracked as I answered.
"But I won't stop until I find her," I added.
"Suit yourself, notify me if you got news regarding with her," he said and turn the swivel chair around.
"She got something, I needed," he added.
And I really want to see her again. It's been 5 years since she left without a word, even her brother doesn't know where she is. I hope she's safe.
"Psalm! Zach!" Aamon entered psalms office with papers in his hands.
"Those are?" I asked.
"Documents obviously," he sarcastically said.
"I know, what I meant documents for?" I replied.
"An assistant product manager delivered papers here earlier this is part of it too." He said and place the papers on the table.
"That's odd," he said.
"Why?" Psalm replied.
"No? Bodies to clean?" He said and sat beside.
"Why, You like cleaning his mess?" I said.
"Nah, I don't feel like it today," Psalm said and stood up.
"That's weird," Aamon said.
"What's on my schedule today?" He said and looked at me.
"You have meetings until 5 pm for the investors and contract signing at 7," I said as I look at my phone.
"Then shall we start now?" He said and grabbed his suit.
"Are you sure you can handle it? You still haven't consumed blood today?" I said.
"Then you shall prepare it," he said and go out first.
"I like the old one," Aamon mumbled and went out.
"I don't know if this is dangerous or safe," I whispered. I have to talk to Amberly immediately. She changed Psalm's mood, that might help him with his curse. His back is slowly turning grey it might not be long before he petrified. I grabbed my phone and made a call.
"Sir?" The other line answered.
"Prepare liters of blood," I Said.
"I will sir," he replied and I hang the call.
Psalm's curse seems to be worsen in the past few weeks, he always wants more blood. Even we Vampires have limitations, it's the punishment we have to receive. God is fair he gave us immortality but still has defects. Just like humans, humans die and vampires can't step into the sun.
I went out at psalm's office and head down to the lobby to buy a coffee.
" Black coffee please," I said and handed my credit card.
"What's with the long face?" The barista asked I think she's in her late 50's.
"Tired," i replied.
"Young people now a days don't know when to rest, you should not overdo it, young guy," she said.
But I'm much older than you tho.
"I will thank you," I said. As she handed me my coffee.
"Have a great day," I said before leaving.
"You too," she replied.
I guess I lived this long. I went back to my office and grabbed some important papers for the meeting as I was preparing it. My eyes lay on one of my paintings, it was on the floor leaning toward the wall facing me.
"Ha! Where in the world can I find you," I said and covered my face with both of my hands.
"Sir, Zach?" A staff went in on my office.
"Sir, Psalm called you," she said.
"I'll be there," I said and wear my suit.
"Alright sir," she said as she went out.
I carry my things and head out.
My phone vibrated and I hurriedly run to the hallway. I dialed Aamon's number and wait till he answer it.
"Yes?" He replied.
"Can you cover me up?" I said and waited for the elevator.
"Cover where?" he asked.
"Psalms' meeting," I said and went in on the elevator.
"Where are you off to?" He asked.
"At the organization...someone sneaks in," I said.
"Alright, leave the papers on the front desk I'll be there in a minute." He said.
"Any information about it?" He asked.
"I'm gonna find out," I said. I left the documents I was holding and leave them at the front desk. And immediately went out at the company and jump in my car.
My phone rang again and I answered it immediately.
"Sir, the box went missing."
"Damn it," I said and clenched my hands on the steering wheel.
"Find it immediately, spread the guys around. There's no way that rat will sneak out that easily." I said.
"Yes sir, should we also notify sir, Psalm?"
"Want to get killed?" I said sarcastically and smirk.
"I'm on my way, let's tell him after we recover that box."
"Yes, sir." He replied and turn the call off.
As I arrived at the organization, they piled up and greeted me.
"Have you recovered it?" I asked.
"Yes, sir we have."
"And the guy?" I asked.
"Captured."
"Good work," I said and went in. I wear my black gloves and open the door where that guy is. He is sitting on a chair and tied to it.
"What a great confidence you've got there," I said and open the bottle of whiskey and pour it into my glass.
"Sneaking at our organization? Seems like you have your death wish," I said.
"You got me worried for no reason," I said seriously and held his face, facing me.
He seems disappointed for some reason, and he got a lot of bruises on his face. Did the guys already teach this guy a lesson?. How thoughtful of them.
"Are you expecting someone?" I said.
He stared at me intently that got me to smile, How cute.
"What a pity, his unfortunately busy today." I turn my eyes red as I was staring at his eyes. His legs began to shake... Fear I see.
"I haven't tasted any blood today? Should I taste you?" I said showing him my fangs.
"Anyways," I removed my hands from his face and drink my whiskey.
"If I were you I should start spilling the tea aren't I?" I said and sat down at the opposite seat facing him.
"Or should I start sucking your blood until you ran out of it?"
"I...I will please spear my life?!" He replied.
"Well then, what organization do you belong to?!"
" Has it been solved?" Aamon asked over the phone.
"Yeah, I'm glad it turn out good."
"What about the organization?" Aamon asked.
"I tightened the security and threatened them obviously," I replied.
"Actually, Psalm heard about it and his upset."
"Like really really upset." He added.
"I guess I should hurry up there then?" I said.
"Yeah you better, it seems like his curse is controlling him again." He said.
"Already? How about the bloods?" I said.
"He asked for more, I already ask our men to get more litters." He said.
"I'll be there, don't let any human get near him!" I said.
"I will, please hurry... Wait. Psalm?! Psalm?!"
"What happened?!"
"He's gone, I'll call you later."
He turns off the call after that. I drive as fast as I can, it would be a great mess if he failed to control himself and attack someone inside the company with everyone seeing it.
Psalm is out of himself lately if this continues it will be hard to contain him. I need to sort this thing out. I should discuss this later with him.
I arrived at exactly 10:59 pm. it's a 3 hours drive from the organization to here Plus the traffic, So I arrived later than expected.
I immediately walk through the elevator when someone called my phone.
"Hello," I said as I answered it.
"Sir, Psalm made an incident a while ago we couldn't reach your phone so you we informed you late." He said.
"Tell me in detailed?" I said.
"Psalm went out and suck someone's blood, there's one person who saw it and Sir. Aamon handles it all," he said.
"How about the person psalm killed?" I said.
"The girl is still alive the person who saw it arrived at the scene and somewhat Sir. Psalm didn't continue to suck the girl's blood. That's why the victim didn't die, we made sure she'll never remember the incident." He said.
" And the person who saw it?"
"Sir. Aamon brought her with him." He said.
"Good work," I said and turn off the call.
That guy really?! Ha!... I went to the top floor to check psalm and Aamon. There's a condominium on top of the building the CEO resides there when he can't go home because of work.
I unlocked the door and went inside. My eyes widened as I saw Amberly sitting in front of Aamon.
"Youre here," Aamon said.
Amberly was just staring at me intently especially my eyes.
"What's going on?" I said.
"She saw him," Aamon replied.
"You did?"
"Yeah, I did."
"I'm a bit confused in this situation mind if you guys explain to me what happened?" I said and sat beside Aamon.
"Yeah sure," Amberly said and take a sip of her water.
"By the way where's Psalm?" I asked.
"In his room resting," Aamon replied.
"I his curse seems to spread faster than the last time we check it." Aamon added.
"If he continues to drink more blood than he actually needed he'll die," i said.
"That's what we need to figure out," Aamon replied.
"Ah guys? Let's paused with the explanation part about the incident, tell me what about the CEO's curse?" Amberly said.
"Are you sure you want to know?" I said.
"I almost got killed earlier and saw something impossible what could be worse than that?" She replied.
"We're Vampires," Aamon said directly.
"W...wait?!" Amberly look really shock.
"How could you say it like that?" I said and slap his back.
"Anyways what he Said is true, we are Vampires. Yes, we exist and yes we drink blood," i said.
"And yes we can't go out at the sun," i added.
"What the hell are those," psalm said leaning at the door of his room.
"Some human questions?" I said.
Amberly stayed silent and keep looking at us.
"That means your old right?" She seriously asked.
"What the fuck is that question?" Psalm said and walk towards us.
"I mean for knowledge purpose hehe," Amberly said.
"Your weird for a human," Aamon said.
"Definitely she is," i said.
