Hazel picked the handkerchief but didn't use it, she roughly folded it and threw it in her drawer then picked her self up and strolled back to the bathroom for a bath, she didn't understand why Ezra stopped but it was a good thing he didn't try to suck her dry like the last time.
In the estate of death, Melvin stood in the bedroom waiting patiently for Ezra to walk out of the bath, the time ticked and minutes turned into hours, it was almost dawn and he finally walked out of the bathroom, looking cold and indifferent as always his wet messy hair added to his already charming look but Melvin wasn't ready to see those, he had important questions to ask, "are you planning to stay with me till the sun rises" Ezra asked as he leisurely took a sit, "what happened at the lythrix place, you have been acting strange like you are trying to wave something off since you left the house" Melvin asked "you, Melvin told me not to drink her blood else I would kill her and I heeded to you, now you are here questioning me, can't I have peace for a whole day" Ezra said and Melvin took a sit close to him "Ezra, tell me what is going on, you might need help" Melvin muttered and Ezra expression became cold on remembering what happened at Hazel's place, he picked the wooden cup by the table containing water and took a drink "I am getting sick" he said "I had the perfect chance but I stopped because I tasted her tears, there was this feeling, a strange feeling like I shouldn't be doing what I was doing, I felt pain in my chest on tasting that lythrix's tears" Ezra said and he squeezed wooden cup tightly as he spoke, "you had a feeling?, is this a joke?" Melvin muttered in disbelief and the wooden cup suddenly broke into pieces, Melvin looked at the scene and sighed then he leaned back on his sit with a thoughtful expression "I really hate to say it but that lythrix might be your mate" Melvin said and Ezra's expression became colder "the witch's blood in me, wouldn't allow me have a mate, it's impossible" Ezra said "then how can you explain this situation, Ezra de La rue felt something" Melvin said "I told you I am sick, leave Melvin you have done enough" Ezra muttered and Melvin sighed " you didn't even remember to take your vase" he said but Ezra said nothing more, he leaned back on the sofa and shut his eyes, Melvin had no choice but to leave but he wasn't going to let the matter sleep.
It was noon in Guttric city, a knock sounded on the door and Hazel stopped the clothes she was folding and walked to open the door, Gabriel was standing outside with a worried look on his face, "hey, why are you suddenly here this afternoon, aren't you supposed to running errands for sir Marcus" Hazel said as she opened the door wider to allow him in and Gabriel strolled in, "they aren't back, sir Marcus and madam Janet, they should have been back since yesterday but I haven't seen them, I feel something bad has happened" Gabriel said "something bad like? Samion city is a very secured city I doubt something bad happened to them, they might have decided to stay in Samion city and enjoy some days of peace, you know, just the two of them" Hazel said as she went back to folding her clothes, "I don't think that's what happened, they would have sent me a message in advance" Gabriel said and Hazel walked to him and patted his shoulder soothingly "calm your worrisome heart, Gabriel, they would come back" she said and he sighed "I hope so" he muttered and took a sit, "can I hel..., hey, what happened to your hand?" Gabriel exclaimed on seeing the bandages in two different part of her left arm, "some heroic injuries" she said indifferently, "hey, they look so bad and old why didn't you tell me when you had them" Gabriel said and tried to touch the wound but she dodged him, "keep your hands, I am fine" she said "was this about the estate of death" he asked "can you drop everything related to the injuries, focus on something else please, thanks for your concern" she said and he went silent, while she walked to her drawer and pulled out her sack of money, "here" she said as she dropped the money on the bed "nine thousand gold coins" she muttered with pride and Gabriel's eyes widened in exclamation "does the vase worth that much!!?" he exclaimed "of cause it does, it's a very old and special vase, forget that, with this money, miss Sofia, can complete the building of the orphanage, your crush, Fiona can leave for Tommin city, and many other orphans would get helped" she said excitedly "so what would you do for your self?" he asked "I would eat an every day meal at Sunny's" she said and he sighed "you are an angel to many" he said "I doubt that" she said and didn't explain further "here, I beg you help me share the money to them" she said "I would gladly help you, you risked alot to get the money" Gabriel said and tucked the money into his sweater, she smiled and went to folding her clothes and he joined her.
