(Wenziel POV)
Someone stabbed me on my back. And before he could push it to me to my death. I managed to counter him with a kick. He disappeared quickly and I did not even see his face. Another surprised attack.
Judging by his speed, I know that he is not an ordinary creature. I managed to pull out the weapon he wielded; it was a knife, which instantly weakened me. I screamed out in pain. Then I tossed the knife on the ground.
There was a small piece of paper attached to it. I approached it… there was written on it that says;
You will die sooner, traitor
(EL POV)I was unable to finish my game against the pathetic vampire when I saw Athena's face as if she was feeling something bad. Before her body fell down like dehydrated stem of plant, I immediately dropped my bow to rush towards her. Ever can’t say something how I take an action and show the compassion of my love toward to her. The fact that I don’t feel anything about her. I am just worried. "Athena." I tried waking her up, but she was unconscious. I gasped. She's been like this since we met. I know there is something that bothers her too. Some erased memories. We immediately left the place and then
(EL POV)I discharge my teacup and smile when I step closer to Diana. Tap her shoulder and sigh. “Thank you for believing on me Diana. This is what we want, to have a peace around us. Don’t get hurt to what I am going to say. Your kin, not all of them, are really against to what we want.” “No, EL. Do you think that I don't know that you're accusing a vampire to be the one who's behind your people's illness? Why it always be us? Humans. You don’t even think they could do something too because you see them weak.”“They have no capability Diana.” “Like Athena? She doesn’t have a capability to harm you?&rdqu
(EL POV)When Diana left, I nodded to the three doctors and then they also took Athena's blood sample. I don’t know why I'm doing this. Sometimes curiosity is the only reason why change is happening around us."Lucah." I called my secretary without even staring at him."Master EL." I stared at my reflection on the glass wall."Get me some information about the witches, sorcerers and some of human activities about witch crafts." My curiosity arises to what Diana said a while ago. "Master EL?" he seemed deaf all of a sudden. Or he couldn’t believe to what he heard. He might think
(Athena POV)Because the pervert isn't around, I'm the one in charged and will not eat what they have prepared. I'm not really that hungry yet. It's a miracle that the prick didn't follow me."What happened to your boss Mia?" after she put on my apron. But as usual, she didn't even bother to answer. I stared at her… but her face was still blank. Haist. Why I even asked about her boss, when I am around him, I shoo him away and don’t want to be close with him. You are really crazy Athena. Stop making a fool of yourself. Mia will never talk to you, as if you have no choice to make her as a friend.
(Athena POV)I did not flinch even though Mia was staring at me, she wanted me to stand up and move closer to EL. Forget it Mia. I have to maintain my stubbornness around you people. That's because you're also not listening to me sometimes, am I right? So, we're even. Hahaha. Don't assume that I don't know how to refuse taking orders.EL put down his spoon. He approached me himself. There was no smile on his lips, but… he was annoyed. Mia, get some of what EL cooked. I and EL just stare each other. Are we going to be full if we stare each other like this?
(EL POV)Athena’s real parents are the Curie's. I just closed my eyes when I read about them immediately. My missing memory was all about them. Athena was born in our mansion. I am the one who helped her family. I really need to find the vampire who erased my memory. And what was my reason to let someone erase my memory? It is impossible for Lupoz to do this to me because the first time I met him, I really had no trust on him at all.I opened my eyes. "Lucah, has their any vampire that became close to me when I was younger?"“Master EL, I am actually investigating about that. I am sorry if I did not
(EL POV)Lucah has returned. "They are already on their move Master EL, to gather information about the adapted family of Miss Athena." I nodded to him and got up from my seat,“I guess there is a merry making in the kitchen.” as I walked out of the door. Lucah followed me quietly while I was calming myself as I approached where Athena's laughter come from. When we got to the dining hall, I knew that Athena was not there. Kitchen. She probably prefers to cook again. Athena having a trust issue again, or
(EL POV)I approached a window on the dining area. I parted the curtain, and the sight of the tree-lined area was visible to me but in the distance, there were buildings were diversity exists.I closed my eyes to calm. Yet, I am aware of something that makes me grin. Three guns were pointing at me. They must've been waiting for me and Athena to be here in the dining hall. I did not act immediately. For sure, they will not succeed to fire those guns. Lucah was already aware of the situation and ordered our men to handle it. Are they targeting me? Or the woman with me? Is jealously towards Athena a factor here? Tsk.This statement must be clear to someone who dearly love others,
