Chereads / Devil's mate / Chapter 11 - At least breathe

Chapter 11 - At least breathe

I kept my distance because I knew I might jump on him, I could perceive the pleasant fragrance of his blood.

I kept on looking at the spoon in front of me without moving an inch.

"At the very least breathe, you do not have to behave this way, just because of that event. I have given my blood to someone else too." He said to me.

'How would he give his blood to someone.'

"A woman??" I spouted.

He chuckled, looking puzzled at me and that is when I realised I sounded jealous.

"Are you jealous??" he asked me with a smirk.

"Why would I be?? After all I don't even know you." I said factly.

"Why don't you know me??" He replied with a question, something I now know he likes doing.

"I just got here not even up to a week." I said playing with my spoon.

"Come closer, not like I will bite you."

"How do you know I am not close to you??" I asked him.

"Why won't I know that??" He scoffed. "Your voice is distinct.

"Ohhhh." I now understood.

"I have a little request." I said slowly hoping he will just grant it.

"Let me hear it." He said, he have not even touch any utensil since I came.

"My mum, no, aunt said I should come home." I said already chanting prayers.

"Hmmmm, sure..." he stressed.

I almost wanted to hug me until he said

"Under one condition." He said with his usual smirk.

"Which is??"

"Be mine." He said with a stoic expression.

I didn't understand, I did not know what to think. I should be his, hmph, then he should leave it.

"No." I replied with a straight face. Strangely I felt bad for saying no.

"Okay." He said shortly which got me confused.

"I... just don't know you and you haven't seen my face." I explained not even knowing why.

"If you say no then it is not a problem but you are not going anywhere until your three months elapses." He said standing up from the dining with his white stick.

I felt very bad and i don't know why I am feeling this way. Shrugging, I also stand up but considering that the food will get wasted I decide to eat.

I sat down back to take a bite but the taste of his blood just distracted me. His words kept on ringing in my head. I had to leave this place and I knew I will.

Dropping the gold utensil on my hands, I decide to walk around to find an exit, maybe a secret way. I had to do this, maybe I won't come back again.

Standing up, I decide to search for Alice, she should know a way out. She should be in the first or second floor now because I remember clearly telling her if she comes to this floor she should visit me.

I walk towards the second floor. Looking at that arabic writing again, I don't know why I was drawn to it.

Shrugging I walk down the stairs, I must find her I say to myself. Walking forward, everywhere was surprisingly quiet but I still decide to walk forward.

Reaching the end I saw a young lady with a superb shape following the end stairs, she looked like a seductress. I am sure she could make any man crawl at her feet.

She walked up the stairs while swaying her hips. She was definitely impossible to resist.

"Arghhhhh.." I muttered, I felt like I should go there and drag her hair.

'She might be here for business.'

This thought ran through my mind.

I decide to follow her but immediately I took a step.

"Madam, did you come in search of me." Alice said.

I felt like slicing her, just when I found something interesting to do she had to come here.

'She might know this woman.'

"Alice, yeah I came in search of you."

"Can I ask a question??"
