Chapter 2
As the woman slipped and inadvertently threw the hot coffee towards Lucius at the company entrance, he instinctively tapped into his vampire powers to move faster than human perception could fathom. In a split second, he blurred through space, a mere blur of motion, evading the trajectory of the scalding liquid with an otherworldly grace.
To the casual observers, it was as though time had momentarily skipped a beat. The coffee seemed to change course in mid-air, missing Lucius entirely. His reaction was like a dance with fate, fluid and effortless, as if he possessed an innate connection with the ebb and flow of time itself.
As the coffee splashed harmlessly onto the ground, Lucius came to a seamless stop, his expression unchanged, but his golden eyes glinting with the evidence of his supernatural prowess. A soft breeze, seemingly born from nowhere, swept through the scene, brushing against those present, leaving them with a sense of ethereal mystery.
The woman's eyes widened in astonishment, uncertain of what had just transpired. It was as though she had thrown the coffee at a specter, and it disappeared into the void. In that fleeting moment, she glimpsed the truth behind the enigmatic aura that surrounded Lucius.
Amidst the commotion, no one else seemed to notice Lucius's swift reaction. He had moved faster than the blink of an eye, using his vampire powers to protect himself from the unexpected mishap. His secret remained safe, concealed beneath the veneer of a gracious smile.
Lucius returned his attention to the woman, his demeanor as composed as ever.
"No harm done,"
he said with an air of grace and sophistication, as though he had merely brushed off a speck of dust.
In that unguarded moment, the woman caught a glimpse of the enigmatic figure that Lucius truly was—a being with powers that surpassed the realm of the ordinary. And as he gracefully continued into the company, the memory of his supernatural evasion would remain etched in her mind, adding another layer of intrigue to the enigma that was Lucius.
"I am sorry, I am sorry, I am sorry,"
"Please forgive me sir,"
She kept pleading, covered her face with her long hair and faced down.
Lucius looked at her ID card and saw ISABELLA ANDERSON written on it.
"it's okay, miss Anderson,"
He said smiling, and walked towards the elevator.
"I wish I could see her face,"
He muttered to himself.
Isabella was still pleading without knew that he had left, until one of the employees tapped her from back and whispered,
"He has gone, Isabella"
"Oh," she exclaimed, raised her head up, and looked back.
"Good morning, Sera," she smiled
"How was your night baby girl?"
Sera asked cheerfully
"It was good and yours,"
"Same here, Isa (short name for Isabella),"
"INTRODUCTIONS....."
