Amaranth got to the training ground and saw Loroo then smiled .
"Sorry for keeping you waiting " She said
"My Lady, I will no longer coach you "
"Why is that ?" She asked with a disappointed face
"An urgent matter that needs my assistance came up "
"So, this matter is more important than me , huh ?"
"I didn't say that "
"I order you to drop this matter and coach me "
"You seem to be growing more wings everyday , flower "Dracula who just appeared said with a smirk
"I know you're behind this so I don't get better than Clara in fighting "
"That's an accusation you're laying on me, flower " He said and she snorted .
"Pick your sword , let's see what you've learnt " He said.
Amaranth picked her sword and lunged at him angrily , while defending herself at same time .
This continued for a while till Dracula hit her sword and it fell from her hand .
"Nice improvement" He said and Loroo smiled .
"Disappear from here , Loroo" He ordered and loroo disappeared
"That's what happens when you've got a good coach " She glared at him .
Clara came to the training ground and began to clap her hands .
"Amaranth, your fighting skills are impressive" She smiled
"I don't need the compliments , Clara " She said and Clara simply smiled .
"We've got a long way to go " Clara said
"As long as you stay away from me , we have no where to go . I hate you all " She said and her eyes began to turn red .
Dracula teleported to her and hugged her from behind .
"Stop this , Amaranth" He whispered to her ears but that didn't escape Clara's hearing .Her eyes turned back to normal and she left the training ground .
"What's with the change in eye colour " Clara asked
"Her powers were taking over her " He replied.
"But you were able to stop her "
"Yes "
"So is this the reason you got married to her ?"
"Maybe " He replied
"I don't know how much longer I can bear her cold attitude towards me . I don't understand why she hates me or could it be because she loves you ?" She asked but got no reply from him .
"Am not wrong , right ?" She asked but got no response from him again.
"I don't want to talk about this , Clara. I've told you before that things have changed but you still want to stick around " He responded
"And I'll continue sticking around cause you're mine and I can't loose you to her ." She said and left the training ground.

"Sango , Clara is back and in Dracula's territory" Luther reported and Sango smirked .
"How did she get back ?"
"That I don't know"
"Clara's presence there, is bound to cause problems, which is good for me"
"Exactly "
"We'll just wait for things to cool down " Sango said and licked his fangs .
** ** **
Amaranth got to her room and locked the door , only to see Dracula on her bed .
"Youre using this power of yours to invade my privacy"
"Why do you hate Clara?"
"Why should I answer you ?"
"I don't need you to answer " He smirked .
"So you're jealous of her , huh ?"
"How did you know that ?"
"I just went into your head "
"Another invasion of privacy !"
"That's the fun of it . Get rid of those feelings you're building up for me , cause it'll only end in tragedy "
"I ain't building up any shit for you "
"So you're denying it that you don't love me ?"
"I don't love you "
"So you don't mind me being with Clara ?"
"I don't "
"You don't feel a thing when I touch you ? "
"I don't "
"You sure ?" He asked while holding her waist .
He carried her and dropped her on the bed while laying on top of her .
"Yes , am sure "
"I don't believe that , flower" He said and grazed his fangs on her neck . He joined their mouths in a hot kiss and with time the kiss became heated .
"If I say I love you, it's of no use cause it'll never be reciprocated , so what's the use "
"I just want to hear it from you "He said while staring at her eyes
"You'll never hear it from me , now please go back to your beloved "
"Youre not gonna say it , cause of her ?"
"Just leave me alone , Lucifer .My life is messed up already . Am stuck here forever with you , I know nothing about my parents , I grew up with monsters ,am born with a kind of power that makes me a bait to every creature out there . I just want to die and be free from it all . So if you can end my life then just do ....."
"Shut up !" He cut her off
"This should be the last time you talk about dying like that "
"Why are you concerned ? because you love me too ? what are you so afraid of ? what's making you to hold back ? Lucifer let it out already !" She shouted
"Nothing! you're confusing yourself , I have zero feelings for you .I only need you for satisfaction ."
"And Clara ?"
"She's the woman I love " He said and the cat that was standing outside the door disappeared.
"Thanks a lot for letting me know ". She said and pushed him away then left the room .
"I can't let you know, Amaranth" Dracula said ,after she left the room .
** ** **
The cat appeared in Clara's room and narrated all she heard in Amaranth's room.
"So she has feelings for my man " frowned
"Yes , mistress "
"But unfortunately for her , his heart still belongs to me "
"I have a feeling that Dracula was hiding something .As if he intentionally didn't want to say it for some reasons "
"Shut up ! you know nothing "
"I think it's time I pay a visit ,to Amaranth personally and have some conversation with her . What do you think ?" Clara said with a smirk
"That'll be very nice " The cat smirked too ,before disappearing.
"She thinks displaying that power of hers will scare me ? I've not showed her what am made of . Nobody knows this new me like me !" She murmured and her tongue turned to that of a snake while her eyes turned to a golden colour .
"Beware of me Amaranth!"She smirked
