Malta had just happily arrived back at Garrett mansion, she decided to arrive early inorder to see him before he leaves for work.
As she made her way in she was welcomed by a maid who took her bags and heels away offering her a slip on to move comfortably in.
"Where's Garrett?"she questioned a maid who bowed her head behaving mute. "Have you lost of your sense of speech?"
Fernandez who was making his way down the stairs while muttering to himself raise his head to see Malta.
His heart almost dropped to the ground, oh no he wasn't prepared for a early morning fight. Malta was back, if she sees the lady sleeping in lord Garrett room she was going to blow a fuse and them being the house maids were going to take most of the burns.
"Eeeeeee.... Lady Malta, what a' pleasant morning to pay a' visit, he dismissed the Maid while distracting Malta.
"Where's Garrett?" Malta asked the butler again.
"Lord Garrett?" Fernandez said in a false tone. He hasn't come home since last night he stepped out, am pretty much sure he will be out for the rest of today " he tried smiling which he failed at he wore his poker face instead.
Malta narrowed her eyes at him her burnett hair tied in a tight knot at the top of her head, she walk pass him and made her way up the stairs.
"I will be in my room then" Malta said and walked away.
Fernandez watched her leave he desperately pray she doesn't go to Garrett room and they both don't see for the rest of the day, he will have to inform his lord of her arrival.
Malta walk through the passage on her way to her room, she suddenly stop upon hearing voices coming from Garrett room.
"Didn't Fernandez said he was out, or is the maids cleaning his room."
She heard Garrett familiar voice coming from his room.
"His he back early," she turn and made her way to his room. With her broad smile she shrug the door open only to be met with a scene of Garrett and female on his bed.
A scream erupt her throat and she dash forward in anger towards the female who was snatching her man away.
Unique eyes widen, she was unsure and confuse, before she could get to her, Garrett had pulled her closer to him while preventing Malta.
"You whore how dare you make your self comfortable in his bed, how dare you ah ah ah ah..." Malta rant in anger.
"Enough!!!!!" Garrett raise his voice at her and she moved away whimpering like a puppy while still glaring at Unique.
"Have you forgotten how to knock?"
"Who's she Garrett, I don't remember offending her why is she trying to kill me" Unique asked Garrett who was in-between the two lady who were now on their feet facing each other.
"Who am I? am his Fiance " Malta snapped which made Unique squeeze her brow at her high pitch tone.
Unique look between Garrett and Malta, so he has a fiance and she was making a mess of herself by clinging to him, what was she thinking wanting to be with a man beyond her reach and far from her world, even though he was this close.
"Malta, just Malta" Garrett corrected Malta who was pissed.
"Um am sorry Miss Malta..... I...."
"And what are you apologizing for?" Garrett question Unique who had her eyes casted down sadly.
"I didn't know you had a Fiance" Unique said.
"I didn't know either, it came as a shock to me as well" Garrett said Shrugging his powerful shoulders.
Malta look at Garrett shocked, he was denying her to her face how could he. Malta turn away and ran off almost in tears, she was going to inform her father about this.
Unique turned to Garrett angrily.
"What??" He asked seeing Unique look at him trying to act fierce.
"Why did you do that?"
"Do what?"
"You spoke so rudely and acted lackadaisical of your actions, you hurt her feelings you should have felt guilty for that" Unique said to him.
"I don't feel sorry that for weaklings and you shouldn't bother your self with others problems" Garrett said he turned and walk away making his way to the bathroom.
..............
After Garrett had left for work Unique spent most of her day in the study or talking to Sophie who showed her presences to Unique from time to time by bringing her food, or simply checking up on Unique and making sure she took her drugs.
~Hartlepool town ~
Garrett stood at a corner watching another member of the court discuss a murder case with will Official Conner who was in charge of taking care of murder cases in Hartlepool town.
Julian Garrett junior at the court stood with him discussing the new evidence found at the scene.
"Her heart was ripped out brutally and it nowhere to be found, no traces of Vermin's (a cult who capture supernatural beings and convert them into lowly being by consuming their souls, they become wild and hunger for more like monsters) maybe witches....." Julian said looking at the woman who was been taken away to the morgue for further investigation.
"Witches don't just take the heart, they take the eyes , tongue and clip their victims nails also" Garrett said, Julian made an irritated face.
"She was seen by the neighbors arguing with her husband a week ago, no one has seen him since then." Julian said to Garrett who only study the file Infront of him.
Official Conner made his way to Garrett who had a serious look on as he read through the file.
"I didn't know the court send the almighty Garrett to look at such a small case in town, has your position been brought down to such level" Conner said rhetorically.
"If your job had been done properly I wouldn't have had the need to come here and handle things my self" Garrett said back to him which made Conner chuckle.
"I guess I didn't get it done properly indeed" Conner agreed with him.
"Has there been any murder like this before?" Garrett asked Conner who nodded before proceeding to say.
"A few months back a lady was also found with her heart ripped out and her hair cropped, we close it as a witch case but seeing the incident repeat it self am starting to doubt, we don't have any leading evident that could point to a particular person. For now her husband he's the only suspect we have."
"I see" came Garrett reply, he handed the file back to Julian, Conner eyed Garrett and decided to ask.
"I don't remember lady Malta looking like the lady at yesterday party"
"Don't intrude into my privacy Mr Conner " Conner raise his hand giving up.
.............
Unique sat on the couch on the balcony leading to her room, she overlooked the city and the night light, it was a perfect view.
She had just finished her dinner and was taking the view of the breezy night.
Her day was filled with her reading history about vampires she found in Garrett library.
"Ah"
Unique exhale relaxing back on the comfy couch, with her leg stretch out.
"Tired?"
Unique was look back to see Garrett leaning on the slide leading to the room, he was back from work but he was still dressed in his overall black outfit, his hair had seen the struggle of the day.
"Maybe" Unique reply looking away. "How was your day, do you need me to ask the maids to bring your food up here?"
"Not in a mood to eat", he walk closer to where Unique sat. Unique swallowed her Spit and he followed the movements of her throat.
"I need to try something new kitten" Garrett went down to Unique level on the couch and she stare into his eyes and wondered if he wanted her to cook for him her self, knowing how she had never stepped into the kitchen because of Sophie paranoid thinking that she might slip on oil, she was a terrible cooker, infact she had never made an effort to light a gas.
Garrett pinched her chin and lift them up, he stare at Unique brown eyes and tilt her head to the side. He move closer to her, Unique could feel the hair on her skin standing straight, before she gets her mind in order Garrett had clamp down on her neck breaking her skin and lapping at what he had done.
Unique gasped in pain at first but later settled at the strange sense of pleasure that was purging in her veins, before she could enjoy it any further Garrett pulled away. Unique protested moving closer to him not liking the fact he withdrew.
Garrett let out a chuckle at her cute act which she was unaware of.
"Don't get too excited kitten" Garrett said, she opened her closed eyes to stare at him through her lashes. Her breathing was coming in pants.
Garrett let go of her chin and stood up walking away, he left her confused and excited which she knew wasn't normal.
"What was that for?" Unique mutter to her self.
