After stepping out of the pub, his eyes wandered around the darkened lot, illuminated by only the lamp post some distance away.
The night air was frigid, and the hair at the back of his skin tingled, not entirely because of the weather, but because he sensed something, rather someone following him.He sniffed the air, and he caught a whiff of vanilla which was familiar to him and another odd fragrance.Despite how odd the other fragrance was, his body reacted to it.Trevor cussed as his groin tingled; he clenched his teeth and glared at no one in particular.He had never reacted to someone's fragrance, he liked seeing his women, and he often goes for a pretty face rather than curves.However, the particular fragrance, which he identified as mint mixed with strawberry, didn't only make him feel dizzy as it became stronger; it made him feel a strange sensation all over.His heart palpitated and he gritted his teeth.He pinched the bridge of his nose and turned to the other direction where the Vanilla fragrance was coming from.He stayed in a dark corner as he heard footsteps, and when they got closer, Trevor leapt out of the shadow, startling the figure.His eyes locked on Lauren; he glimpsed the tears in her huge pale blue eyes that were filled with fear and pain, also as the club that was in her shaking left hand.Lauren bit her bottom lip to stop it from trembling, but no matter how hard she tried, it even worsened.She shouldn't be in his presence, and she shouldn't confront him, but she couldn't help herself.Seeing her friend in the thick crimson puddle, lying lifeless on the bed, was enough indication to let her know the man before she was dangerous.But again, she tried to wrap her head around why he had done it. She couldn't."What do you want?!""What did you do to her?! Monster!"Trevor creased his brows, shaking his head as she took a step forward. She must have gone to see Tricia after he left, and he had sensed she would as she had looked at him suspiciously."Y-y-you are a monster, and you killed my best friend!" Lauren sobbed.She stepped forward again, the club still in her trembling hands."I wouldn't do that if I were you, sweetheart." Trevor tutted as she hoisted the club in her hand.He swooshed to her side and tossed the club away, then pulled her into a tight embrace."Monster!" Lauren shrieked, but the sound was muffled by Trevor's hand."You'll do as I say." He mumbled, staring into her eyes."I'll do as you say," Lauren repeated after a few seconds."That's good." Trevor grinned, patting her head."Stab your heart, and don't scream."Lauren frowned, shaking her head. About to object, Trevor repeated what he said earlier, and she said it after him.Lauren gripped the pocket knife he extended towards her and thrust it into her heart. She bit her lower lips, and a gasp slipped out her mouth."I...I…" She stuttered, stepping backward as she glimpsed Trevor's eyes.A devilish smirk appeared on his face, and he stepped toward her. His blue-green eyes turned golden, and two sharp canines protruded out of his mouth.He growled, "Yes, I am the devil himself."He clamped her neck and sank his teeth into it before disentangling it.He exhaled as the frigid wind blasted his face.Digging his hand into the breast pocket of the tux he donned, he brought out a white fabric; cleaning his face, which was stained with Lauren's blood, he tossed the material into the nearest trash can and proceeded to his car."I know what you did."Trevor halted, his muscles tensing up at the calm voice. Also, the odd scent came again. He didn't need to be told it was from her as the sweet aroma enveloped him, doing injustice to his senses."I can sense death all over you." The voice mumbled.Trevor didn't need to turn to know the voice that had halted him was feminine, but he was perplexed she had seen him draining Lauren.Except for when Lauren had sensed what he did after seeing Tricia, no one had ever caught him until now.He wondered if she had seen him drained off Tricia as well. But it was a ridiculous thought since his room was on the tenth floor of the building."I am happy you are not denying it."Trevor swirled, and his eyes collided with sea-green eyes. It was as beautiful as the seaweed and the rarest he had ever seen.She was blonde and petite. Also, she looks several years younger than him, perhaps, in her late teens. But he couldn't tell. She tilted her oval face, and her button nose wrinkled while her rosebud lips twisted down in disgust."Who are you, and why are you stalking me?!" Demanded Trevor.He was not ready for a bit of chit-chat, and he doubted the girl before he was prepared for that."Stalking you?!" She asked. Then, she tossed her head back and burst out laughing."Of course!"The girl rolled her eyes, "Please, I have far more important things to do than stalk a brat and pompous man like you."Trevor gritted his teeth and marched towards her. "Stop playing games with me, or you'd rather wait for me to snap your neck before you tell me the f**k who you are?"Kira shrugged his hands off and glared at him. She wondered why he was hellbent on knowing why she had seen him killing the poor girl.Just as she had imagined, he was indeed pompous, but he was also a killer.Kira shrugged, "I am playing no games with you. I just wanted you to know I saw everything that happened."Trevor's eyes darkened as he stood before her, and his hand moved to clasp her shoulder.Kira saw him from the corner of her eyes, and she swerved. Reflexively, she dodged an incoming blow and ducked as he sprinted toward her.Kira smirked. She glimpsed, his aura changing and the fury he was trying to suppress in his eyes."I'm no pushover."Catching him off balance, she kicked him in his shin and shoved him into the lamppost.Trevor groaned and glowered at her. He took a moment to appreciate the woman that had expertly dodged his blow.Despite her petite frame, she was indeed no pushover.Still, he didn't think he could leave her with that much information she knew. No one had ever seen him while on a mission.Even when they did, just as Lauren was trying to stalk him from before, he'd annihilate them; that was what he always does.He couldn't afford his secret to be wide in the open. A growl escaped his lips as he straightened, then he noticed she was staring away from him. He used the opportunity to sneak beside her, and his hand moved to tug her by her hair.But Kira sensed him behind her, and she swirled. Her elbow moved reflexively and struck his chin.Then, she booted him in his groin, earning a groan from him."Bitch!" Trevor howled in pain. He clamped his hands between his thighs and fell to the ground."That'd teach you never to sneak up on me," Kira glared, her knees collided with his face, and she raised her hands in the air."Never underestimate what I can do!"Trevor moaned, and the ground tilted underneath him. His head reeled and pounded as a splitting headache surged into him.He grasped the wet grass and attempted to lift himself, but it was useless since he kept falling whenever he took a step.And the girl in his front wasn't helping the matter. He didn't know what she was doing to him, and worst, he could do nothing to stop his situation.Was this his end? He pondered as he slipped into consciousness.Kira assessed the man that slept on the bed, the strange vibe that came from him before intensified.She frowned as she stared at him more. He was undoubtedly good-looking, but it confused her since there was no sign of him being anywhere royal.Although the suit he donned says he could be one of the high-class men, she assumed he must have cleaned up as they always do for an important event.He, in particular, had cleaned up to go for his mission, which was to kill.As soon as he collapsed, she had wanted to leave him on the floor to bleed to death, but she couldn't; she hadn't.Something had stopped her from leaving him alone in the cold.She assumed it was the strange feelings she got from him.The more she thought of it, the more it confused her.The man before her was a nobody, a bloody nobody!However, the sign from the prophecy had moved inside of her.How could she be queen if the person before her wasn't a royal? She mused, eyeing the room she was in.He wasn't even close to b
"This is a sacred place and not where you can come in to destroy things!" Fuji, the guard with a buzz cut, said.Kira sized him up; he was huge. Both were huger than her as well as muscular. There was no way she could take them out in battle since they were seasoned warriors, and she believed one of their thighs would crush her since they were practically a giant.But then, she wasn't trying to combat them with her hands."Listen to him, little girl." Eugene, the other guard with crooked teeth and bushy beard, asserted.He narrowed his eyes as Kira stepped forward with her hands raised."I can take you both." She mumbled, gazing around.Her eyes zeroed on the large club at the corner of the room, then at the guard.A chuckle slipped from Fuji's mouth before it turned into full-blown laughter."Don't tell me you are thinking of hitting me with that…."Before he could complete his statement, Kira flipped into the air, plucked out the knife in the cargo pants she donned, and thrust it int
Grimacing, Trevor tossed the controller in his hands across the room after switching off the large TV on the wall.He rose from where he sat and stepped to the middle of the room.Tilting his head, he thought back to what was said by the reporter. Several more bodies had been found dead at the elite clubhouse and Trevor knew who they were even before the names were revealed.He wondered how long it had taken for them to get to see the now decomposing bodies of Tricia and Lauren.Recalling the pleas from both ladies, he shook his head frantically and glared.He didn't want to kill them. In fact, he had no intentions to do such, but sometimes, he couldn't control himself.It was as if he was a different person entirely and self-control was always far from him whenever it happens.Since he came to terms with what he was, he had never gone to sleep without his hand being soiled with blood.And he had never hunted the innocent until now. He believed he was driven by lust and hunger since i
"Dad!" Leila yelled, "That isn't fair.""I think I am the fairest with you, darling."Leila stomped her feet on the floor and stalked out of the room after the unsuccessful attempt to get him to grant her the permission she needed.It was just like always, her father refusing to let her do what she wanted.He wouldn't let her even walk the distance from the entrance door to the huge gate without having Anthony, his loyal bodyguard and chief security officer follow her.She detested it. All she had ever wanted was her freedom. Yet, it seemed it wouldn't come anytime soon.Her father had freaking confined her in the house and didn't care about anything she wanted.Although he provided all that she wanted, he assumed that giving her everything was what she only needed.She wanted more.She wanted his attention. She wanted a father and daughter moment and she wanted her freedom as well.Leila wondered if she was being selfish to have wanted her freedom as her father always did what he was
Amused at how he addressed himself, Leila giggled. She found his sense of humour sexy and wondered if he often joked like that all the time.The truth was, Trevor Saint Williamson was dangerously handsome. The smile he was flashing her way was doing more than it should to her.Her body reacted to him and she didn't mind. She only wondered if he felt the same way as he would be the first man she'd desired even before knowing who he was.Trevor chuckled. Her thoughts were amusing even though that was how he affected all the women he had been with except one.A shadow crossed his face as he remembered her, the woman that had been invading his dream. The woman who felt nothing for him and had almost murdered him without a second thought.The woman he believed had disappeared from the surface of the earth...Trevor's eyes snapped to Leila as he felt her hands on him. He furrowed his brows, staring at her oval-shaped face."Don't you want me too?"She was too forward, but that was how he li
"So, is it a deal or no deal?" Silas tilted his head whilst moving around his vast living room.The living room he used alone in the mansion he stayed in."Deal."He let out a relieved sigh as he heard the deep voice at the other end."It should be done before 10 PM, you know we don't want anyone knowing," Silas said."No one would suspect a thing except you rat us out and it will be done smoothly. Be rest assured." The voice said again.Silas nodded, before hanging up.He didn't need to be present in the meeting being held at the moment. He was certain everything would go on smoothly without him.Although he trusted no one, he had little trust in his allies. They often did a great job in his presence and absence.Silas smiled briefly as the call ended and he stepped towards the bar.Life was a lot easier, he mused and imagined the vast fortune that would be his tomorrow.He couldn't wait for that to happen and he'd surely get the most out of it.**********Trevor groaned as he landed
"I saw Leila with you last night," Anthony said.His face was grim as he scrutinized the woman in front of him.He didn't need to know what her answer was with the way she twisted her fingers together. She moved from one foot to another and exhaled each second.She was nervous. He saw that and he believed she knew everything that was going on."Where is she, Mrs Morgan?" He asked again."I-I..." Mrs Morgan stuttered. She breathed out and clenched her teeth.She didn't want to beat about the bush but the hunch she was feeling for the past minutes even got stronger.Something didn't feel right. Leila should be home by now but she couldn't seem to think of what had gone wrong.Even the tracker she placed in her bag had ceased working. It felt as though someone disconnected it.But she was sure of all the locations she had been to before it stopped. She had made sure to track her movement."Where is she? I believe you are aware of all that is going on.""I swear, I didn't mean to let her
Mist swirled around the vast temple and mother Lucia mumbled. The words were incoherent.Not even anyone near her would know what she was saying. Except for her.It wasn't unusual. She did that each time she was meditating and it was part of her.Still, there was something different about what she was feeling.Her body tingled, and her palms which were placed in front of her trembled. She groaned and gasped.Her head tossed back and her mouth opened agape.Her once dark eyes turned white and she let out a soft sigh.She was in a trance, she was certain of that. It wasn't new that she was having visions. But, it didn't happen all the time and whenever it did, it often took her by surprise. Most times, the visions were awful and made her have nightmares for days if they weren't fulfilled.Moreover, she could predict the future but then she didn't rely on the gift most of the time seeing as it was mostly unpredictable.Her astral body projected out of the physical one. As she floated aro
