JENNA'S POV*
"Ohh"...The guy let out surprisingly, staring at me weirdly without attempting to look away."Uhmm, sorry", he said after peering at me for long."I have erm.. Something to do ", he concluded as he turned to move out."Alex," Sebastian called out his name and then he turned back. Instead of looking at Sebastian who called him, he turned peeking at me again."meet um.... What the heck" Sebastian rumored at me after remembering he didn't know my name."Jenny Alfred..? ", Alex uttered staring and looking away at the same time.I was surprised when he called that name because I thought all he was going to do was wait for Sebastian to introduce me.When he called it, I paused for a while, thinking I remembered something. But... since the discussion was about me, I couldn't get inside my head for long. So, I thought of going with the flow and saying yes to that name.I thought Sebastian would be ok with that before I heard him say..."No! She's not...""She's... Just a friend...Aby", Sebastian said stammering and winking at the same time.Then he let out a broad smile, saying," Aby meet my friend Alex".I smiled at Alex dearly, when I was asked to meet him because I didn't remember anything about meeting someone new."Hi," Alex said, as he raised his right arm smiling without dropping it yet."Hi.." I repeated raising my arm too without also dropping mine.His smile soon fades into a normal look, then he drops his arm and chuckles.He then turned to Sebastian who introduced us both." You know the name Aby is kinda... Cool, but do you believe it's my first time hearing it..? " Alex asked With a giggle."It's no big deal.. Abigael is the name and Aby for short" Sebastian replied, looking at me while I shook my head to mean... Exactly.We already started to get along before Sebastian stands still and deeps his hand into his trouser pocket. Alex and I was waiting to see what he's got, then he brings out his phone, he's got a call. After speaking to whoever called him, he hurriedly moved out saying the king wants him at the castle and that we should get along. I watched him move till he got to the door. Once he gets there, he turned back to look at me like he had expected that I'll be watching him too. We gave each other a definite look for some moment before he turned to go. Unmistakably, his look was saying something. was he trying to give me the final warning about us and our secrets? or was he saying goodbye?.. I can't really tell.Soon, Alex moved out too after saying he needs to get shower.I sigh and look downward after I was left alone in the room. I almost forget I had breakfast tea before me. I only took one spoon and a piece of bread, Now it's all cold after the interviews. I took a deep breath, fall backward on the bed, and exhales, looking up at the ceiling. I raised my head and fall back again. I did this multiple times before I eventually got tired of it. I finally lay on the bed, breathing heavily. The fact that I still couldn't remember anything about myself puts me in misery. I rest my head on the bed, take a deep breath and exhale every previous thought in me. I thought I should take the thinking slowly and more calmly as my previous thoughts came out of banging my head. I was down for almost an hour, trying to soften my nerves but .... I remembered nothing." You're just wasting your time", this thought interrupted in my head. I stood up on my feet and walk around the bedroom, shaking my head as my eyeballs follows.My shaking head got tired of the action since it's been an hour and a few minutes. I moved my feets towards the door while i was still thinking and opened it. I moved out of the bedroom and saw a narrow lane down the road leading outside." what kind of house is this?" I asked myself. I saw different rooms facing each other but i wouldn't want to enter any because i didn't know which one Alex stays as he told me earlier that he was going to shower. I moved down the lane leading outside. When i got out, i found myself in the veranda of the third story seeing the whole city." Wow", I let out suprisingly as the cool breeze flew my hair backward. I found everything cool up there. I moved towards the barrier made with furniture to cover the third story verrander. I placed my fingers on it and look downward, I could barely see the last building as it went too deep. I carefully took my steps back to the door side, entered and closed it. It terrified me a bit as I thought i would fall. I walked quickly back to the bedroom i left. I was tired, so I sat by the bedside again, putting my two arms between my knees and making them fall downward."So the building is actually three story" I thought to myself.I bent my head and saw my unpacked hair fall but I didn't care. My long fingers were moving just below the bed as I could still move them under it a bit. I deepen my fingers under the bed in form of searching for nothing before I felt that way. Unexpectedly, my fingers could reach some books and I took them out immediately. I wouldn't have brought them out if I didn't feel the way I felt. My nerves got serious, my brain, the thoughts.... Everything focused immediately on those books. My heart beats faster and I breathe so... heavily when I held them. I dropped them down immediately and replaced them, thinking.... A vampire who has lived for long and seen it all could still put something of that nature in his room." I am not surprised" I concluded the thoughts quickly giving out heavy breaths and sweating seriously like I've been on serious work. " What were they made of"...I asked myself before I remembered something." Are they... Novels..?". I knew instantly.... there was something like novels but I didn't know where that come from. I fell back on the bed, landing on my back out of tiredness, then I heard a gentle knock on the door."Who is there?" I asked, not too loud. I waited for response but unfortunately, there was none. The moment became silent so, I stood up to open the door. I halt immediately I thought of the previous incident. I stared at the door carefully and moved slowly towards it." Who is there " I asked again, loud enough for whoever it was to hear."Uhmm it's me"...JENNY'S POV* "It's me," a guy said in a bold voice from outside. His voice didn't sound so Violent, so I opened the door to see who it was. Then, I met Alex again gorgeously dressed in a black suit. "Oh, you? " I said, looking at him. "Yeah... " he replied, watching me like he wanted to say something. "O...k," waiting to listen to what he had to say."I...just want to go for a stroll and... I came to ask if you would... go with me" he demanded and smiled. I was speechless in the first place, I was going to say something before...he continued... "I guess... You could be lonely so, I thought we should go together". I saw in his eyes that he was trying hard to convince me but he backed it up with smiles. "Uhh.. ok" I accepted without being able to insist. He smiles and said," alright" and then we both head out. I don't know anywhere in that city so...I humbly followed Alex to wherever he would want to go. I was walking behind Alex down the streets and everyone was giving us some we
My heart raced as I don't know how I would answer that question. "mhm.." I cleared my throat to purchase time and think of something. All these times, I was thinking of Sebastian. I knew he felt something about me but had a crush on someone else. Now I don't even know where he stands. It was already 5 minutes that I'd been in silence and I haven't answered Alex's question yet. He then started giving me some bizarre look.. to mean he was already expecting a negative answer. I looked at him and smiled, I feel nothing for him anyway. But frankly, that look he gave was going to force some false words out of me. "Umm..yeah" I enunciated. I was going to continue before we saw the waiter being shoved from the door side as she fell on the floor to land on her butt. some guys pushed their way inside the restaurant and acted all big in blue and black. The customers all abandoned their food and began to flee. "Damn! Alex gave an instant hiss and turned in the direction opposing the guys l
Sebastian Pov** I was in my room with Alex and the beautiful distinct lady whose name is yet to be known. At first, Alex thought she was the Jenny Alfred i've been longing to meet but.. She wasn't. I had to assume another name for her, well.. Maybe for the main time till she remembers who she was. Suddenly, I got a call from the king demanding that I appear in his castle. So I left the two behind to meet him. I rode in my black SUV car that I bought recently. when I got there, the keeper of the first gate quickly opens up and bowed till he could no longer see my car. I got to the second gate and the custodian did the same. Finally, it's the last gate where the main palace lies. I parked at the garage and stepped out of my car. I looked at the guards as they already bowed to greet me. I curled my head slowly to give response while I matched towards the door. I was not all good with the bows and greetings but I soon got used to it. Alas, a Viceroy as the vice king wouldn't get any de
Jenny's Pov** Some parts of my hair already changed to an unusual color. I wouldn't want to say a thing because my myriad voice could get me noticed. It's like some other part of me wants to show up while I struggled really hard to avoid the trouble.I knew I had a deal with Sebastian but I wouldn't let Alex die on my watch. The waiter was the nearest person to the door... So I gave her a signal to call for help. I didn't need help anyway, I just wanted her to leave so she wouldn't witness what was coming. Angrily, I stood up from the ground and walked gently toward them. I couldn't believe how heartless they were that they didn't even realize Alex was unconscious. The twits got too carried away by the bully that they didn't see me coming..Till I held the crime lord by the neck and moved him up to lift his two feet above the ground. "I asked you... to stop!!" I mumbled in dismay as my voice scolded him. I forcefully flung him sideways and he lobbed his waist on the adjacent furn
SEBASTIAN'S POV It was already past 8 before I left the castle. After I escort the king back to his palace and after the survey was done. I raced down the street roads and got hooked up by the traffic portents. There are too many vehicles ahead and behind me so, it changed my usual activity. Unfortunately, I also had to wait in their queue till I saw the vehicle at my front move. Except for the day, I always forget to obey traffic rules. I parked at the front of the hospital where Alex was taken. There are way too many wards in that hospital compared to the one I've been to. I had to keep my eyes up until I see the one in which 024 was written as addressed by the guards who directed me. I stepped inside and met Aby sitting beside Alex. She quickly turned to see who it was but contorted back in disappointment. That look wasn't a welcoming one and it doesn't seem like she would say a word to me. I knew my normal face didn't show any sign of sincerity but I exceptionally want the guy
Sebastian's POVI just spent less than 5 minutes with the guys before I had Aby appear at my front crying that I stop. I didn't know how she got there but she couldn't change the fact that they all died. The last person spent some minutes on the floor before he finally bled to death. Aby was so shocked that she couldn't even say a word after I turned to look at her. It was the good side of me she saw the last night, this part of me only shows up when I get really mad. It was the side that I could never handle with the right senses if things get out of hand. I feel the scars on my face as it gets wider and wider, then I could feel the heartbeat of humans miles away even if I close my eyes to avoid them. Except for today that I didn't suffer so much turning back to human. "Is it because....she cried..?" I kept on thinking and walking toward her as she sat and rolled down tears. I hope she was smiling and not crying because the way she unfurl her gown on the floor to cover her legs....
Sebastian's POV After the news on the TV was displayed, I shortly had a call and it was the king. He just told me there was a problem at hand that I should show up but he didn't tell me where to meet him. Alex was supposed to return to the hospital after the meal for more treatments. I quickly rode them back to the hospital and dropped Aby with him. I met King jovinian and his son at the bridge but unexpectedly King Jonathan had showed up too. He would've been a good friend to King Jovinian if he really shows sincere concern for the viles city. His kingdom, Wales City is the closest to Viles and he has been too greedy from the start striving all hard to engulf our kingdom with his and control two kingdoms. One thing that gets me curious about him is that he knows Viles' mistakes whenever or wherever. I can't say if he has spy with us or anything but he has used many of Viles's mistakes against King Jovinian by making it known to the overall King, Emperor Leo.My first mistake was tha
Sebastian's POVI wasn't shocked by what was going on. I was just surprised, How did these two get as close as this? When it's just two days. I knew Alex made the move but.. Aby was looking like she was enjoying it. I went inside to meet Alex lying on his bed while Aby sat by the side. They were having some sort of conversation, well, that is ok. But it surprised me when I saw Alex placing his head on Aby's lap, while she pats him dearly. I stood still and glanced at the act for long. "What's going on here," I asked out of surprise. Aby's face changed as she looked deep into my eyes from where she sat. To me, her face was like..she wished she could read my mind. But, I wasn't thinking of anything other than how she started that so soon. Alex didn't feel like it should affect me so, his normal gaze didn't change from how it was...it only showed me that I am interrupting. I don't know where that sharp pain came from immediately after I got inside. but now, that pain...has gone somew
