ICY - Chapter 10 - A Sneaky Visitor
Last night, after Amanda had that horrific dream, she decided to sleep again but found that she couldn’t. Her mind raced, her adrenaline pumped, and her heart doubled its workload at the mere flash of pictures in her mind of that grotesque scene.
Fear gripped and chilled her and it was nowhere near detaching itself despite knowing Cord wouldn’t do such a thing. She trusted him. She was certain she was safe with him, but a part of her—that witch part which screamed defense—made her want to keep her eyes open the rest of the night.
It was only at the strike of five in the morning when her eyelids drooped and finally, she allowed herself into the world of dreamless sleep again.
Cord, after stealing a last glance at her sleeping form, left the room with Jonathan replacing him.
“Good morning Ms. O’Malley, ” he greeted when he first saw signs of the woman waking up

It was a sunny morning and the throne hall of the Vitalis Castle had been partially lit by the offending ball of fire. Jerome of course didn’t want to get caught up by the sun’s rays and get fried up, so he moved forward as cautiously as he could to where his master usually sat.Normally, Cord’s shadows would block the sun’s rays out, but now, they didn’t. Or it was that the Master himself didn’t care of the bright light and chose not to block it.Jerome couldn’t ascertain why his Master did so, but he chose to keep the question to himself.“Master Cord, Calvin wishes to talk to you, ” he announced once he was a few feet away from the dais. This part of the throne hall at least had the safety of the shade.Missing a blindfold, Cord opened his eyes and stiffly nodded.“Let him come in.”Jerome d

Amanda released a quick breath of disbelief. Her eyes did a double take at the tickets on her hand and then a smirk appeared on her lips.“Wow, you’re actually coming with me? The Master of Vampires is actually coming with me?”She couldn’t believe what she just heard. They hadn’t gone that far into their relationship, but she was sure he disliked traveling and meeting new people. If he did it so for her, then it was a grand gesture, but still it didn’t fail to amuse her.Cord grinned at her, proud that he was able to elicit exactly the kind of response he expected. He opened his mouth to reply, but then was stopped short when the driver of the limousine buzzed his message through the intercom.“Excuse, Master Cord, Miss Amanda, we have arrived.”Amanda handed him back the tickets.“Hold that for me,&rdquo

“Petting the animal again?” Cord muttered as soon as he saw Amanda with Bagheera.He had half expected her to be inside the bathtub, alone, naked and cleansing herself of the dirt from the hospital.Seeing her now, it seemed she had indeed taken a bath judging from the still wet locks sticking to her neck and the bathrobe she wore, but she wasn’t alone. Apparently, his traitor pet had been quick to ask for her attention.Amanda hummed her agreement without looking at Cord.“Bagheera missed his daily belly rubs so I’m giving it to him now.”She continued petting the animal who lay at her feet, next to the sofa she was sitting.Cord’s teeth clashed. He pulled the blindfold off and dropped it to the floor. The way her cleavage peeked and her breasts pressed up against her thighs, it made him wish what he was seeing wasn&

Jerome knocked on one of the double doors of the study, signifying his arrival along with a female vampire his Master wished to see. It was early in the afternoon that same day. The sun was high in the sky and the air was hot and humid. Not a sign of rain was threatening to pour down.Although Cord knew most of his subjects were inside their dark rooms welcoming a deathlike sleep, he ordered his butler to fetch one that could help him with his...dilemma.Amanda was with Arissa in her old bedroom, busily preparing her luggage for their departure five days from now to New Zealand—to a place where it wasn’t Cord’s comfort zone; to one of the countries where he had once been rampaging and killed more than a dozen witches.Knowing this, he needed treatment asap, or at least to learn more about what was happening with his body, or more like his shadows. He couldn’t forgive himself for the ghastly behavi

The bright morning light filtered through the white curtain inside the Master’s chamber as soon as Arissa opened the casement windows.Amanda, able to get a straight, uninterrupted sleep the entire night, cracked an eye open. She expected that Cord would be next to her, or at least already on his favorite chair delicately observing her like he usually does, but he wasn’t.She cringed, finding it weird. Never had he missed a night since they started their odd relationship. He even ordered her to sleep inside his master chamber instead of her own room so that they’d grow closer. He hadn’t skipped a chance on watching her sleep the whole night through too and for this, it left her asking, why? His absence was indeed an unusual thing.“Good morning, Miss Cait. You’re breakfast is ready, ” informed the maid cheerily, unbeknownst of the pile of confusion inside Amanda’s head.

And pierce her skin he did.Cord’s fangs hit the soft flesh of Amanda’s neck. Blood instantly oozed, but he pressed his mouth and sucked the crimson liquid into his system.Amanda, feeling the piercing pain, woke up gasping and with her eyes almost popping out of its sockets. She felt the heavy weight on top her, she felt the restraining hands on her wrists, and she felt Cord’s warm mouth on her skin. Alarm immediately flooded through her.“Cord!”She tried to push him back, but was met with a tighter grip on her wrists.She had trusted him. Trusted his full capacity to control whatever was changing him. He had returned to his formal dark self -- that much she could deduce. Otherwise, if he was in his right mind, he wouldn’t have placed her in this danger the second time.“Cord!”But the cur

Minutes earlier...Under the Master’s order, Jerome fetched the Vitalis doctor again from her laboratory. Mera immediately knew why. The odd couple were going to New Zealand by tomorrow and most likely, her Master was getting impatient with the cure of his so-called attacks.Truth be told, she was working like crazy to find it, but it wasn’t just that easy. She needed both Science and Medicine to come up with an answer, and even that not-so-common Metaphysics too. They were vampires after all. Everything was out-of-the-ordinary for them.If she were to be honest with herself, she’d say Cord had given her another absurd task along with one other previously requested. It was to find a cure for their curse without requiring Amanda’s blood sacrifice. She hadn’t gone far into her research with that one. It was a challenge and one that she was willing to take. After all

Amanda and Cord’s plane landed twenty-five hours after at the Wellington International Airport. It was an arduous flight, one that he definitely disliked but being at the Premium Class of the plane at least lessened the stress of flying.The last time Cord was in New Zealand, it was over seven hundred years ago via a galleon ship. He was on a rampage then. He stepped out of the ship with all the crew and passengers sucked of blood. Mera, Calvin and Pamela were with him to handle the damage.It was the one story he disliked to share when Amanda asked, wanting to kill time during their flight.Once they arrived, they headed straight to Heather’s pre-booked hotel, the Wellington Best Point Hotel. It was the one nearest to Amanda’s house, at least a thirty-five minute walk.After check-in, Amanda met Noman at a cafe near her house some time past ten in the morning with her luggage in to
