*The Kingston's Mansion**Green City* Olivia had always been the piece of glue that held the family together, like a bright ray of light, her infectious smiles and laughter lit up the entire mansion, her eyes were shining with mirth as she regaled them with tales of the camp of the undead." Father, I've mastered how to shoot and I really learnt a lot from my master, he helped me build my stamina and my speed increased thanks to him "Vince smiled" You haven't said a sentence without adding 'my master' in every single one, he must be really outstanding "Rivera nodded in agreement.Olivia furrowed her brows" That's because we were mostly together"She didn't tell them that she had found him scary at first and the mere thought of him was enough to make her faint.The entire mansion was in a festive mood and the table was laden with all kinds of sumptuous feasts." At least, now that you're back, I can finally eat meat"Erada sighed, she no longer had to keep up with her pretense an
" When were you going to tell me that you're an heir of one of the four main families in Green city or you were never going to tell me? "Venom sighed" My father was worse than a beast, when I was little he used to molest me several times, when I left, I decided that I no longer have anything to do with the Smith family "" Including Raven?"" They've always treated Raven better "" I guess you're right, it should explain why she's crying that she'll rather k*ll herself instead of getting married to Brad"She said sarcastically.Venom's eyes narrowed into slits and he swore silently." Damn it! I didn't think he would actually be so cruel to her"" She's your family big brother, she thinks you're dead all these years, you should let her know you're still alive and find a way to deal with Brad before he becomes a bigger issue, she seems terrified of him "" Thank you Daera and thank you for treating her even without knowing who she was"" You're welcome big brother but if I find out t
*The Kingston's Mansion**Green city*Olivia was with Erada when the call came through from Draco, to stop Olivia's mind from running wild with imaginations, she accepted the call and activated the speaker." Olivia, please come to my office"There were no other words and even his voice was a bit shaky, despite how hard she was trying to remain calm, a trace of panic was slowly setting in, she turned to face Olivia." You should go, just do me a favor, possess him, once you've managed to grasp his memories, tell me everything he knows about soul shifters"She wanted to be prepared before setting her feet in Havilah city." Alright, I'll do it for you"Olivia said with a bright smile, despite the smile on her face, her heart was in a turmoil, she had kept her feelings locked in all these years because a part of her had always believed she wasn't good enough, she wasn't strong enough to match someone like him and now that she was no longer weak and useless, that old feeling was still re
* The Kingston's Mansion** Green City*" I hate you"The words continued to ring continuously in her head." Mother, do you think she really hates me, I didn't mean to hurt her "Erada sighed as she narrated everything to Rivera." Once she gets everything off her chest, she'll be alright, you shouldn't worry too much about it, I'm only worried because she's not picking my calls " Rivera said gently ." You shouldn't be scared of going after anyone you love, before I got married to your father, there were several obstacles in our paths but thankfully, we braved through them"Erada tried dialing Olivia's number but it wasn't connecting." You should give her time to get everything out of her system"Rivera advised as she pulled Erada into a hug, sniffing over her hair. " It still feels like a dream that I never lost you"Erada's face bloomed into a tiny smile, it was surprising how none of them had minded that she was a mercenary and they all accepted her with open arms.Her guilt le
*The Steele's Manor**Green City*Her mother had wanted her to be a healer and it was one of the reasons why she had named her Erada, she had raised her to be loving, kind, compassionate and to always forgive even when anyone had hurt her.' Erada, you'll always be mother's precious angel, mother wants you to grow up into a kind young lady, promise mother that you won't let the world change you'Even with her last breath, mother had made her promise, it was a promise she couldn't keep, after her mother's death, she had stopped using the name, mother wouldn't have wanted her Erada to become a mercenary and now, he was the first person she was mentioning the name to." Draco.. I am not Olivia, I'm Erada "She watched the display of emotions on his face, shock, confusion, disbelief and it gradually morphed into an accusation." You're not Olivia?"Erada nodded slowly"I'm Erada, Erada Kingston, I'm sorry for lying to you, Draco, I didn't mean to"She moistened her lips "I'm the other tw
* The Camp Of The Undead** Devil's lane*The next morning... Olivia fiddled with the crystal watch on her wrist, thankfully she didn't wake up with an headache , the pill was really effective,Venom walked in with a tray of food and a mirror.She arched her brows" What's the mirror for?"" To see how beautiful you look"He said with a straight face.He had never complimented her and she wondered what brought about the sudden change. Olivia took the mirror from his hands and she gasped in shock, her eyes were swollen and puffy, she hadn't bothered to wash off her makeup and the smeared eye liner made her look like the female lead of an horror movie." I look terrible "Venom shook his head" Terrible is an understatement, pampered heiress, are there any more tears this morning? "Olivia shook her head slowly, even if she tried so hard, she didn't think she would be able to shed a single tear." No, no more tears"Venom heaved a sigh of relief. " Master.Olivia mumbled quietly" Tha
*The Steele's Manor** Green City*Two days had passed and Erada hadn't heard from Olivia, Draco had stopped her from leaving his side, even when she told him she wanted to get her things at home , he had refused, he had invited the best fashion designer in Green city, Midas Gold to the manor, any dress she touched, he would end up buying it.Erada stared at the huge pile of clothes and she wondered what she was going to do with them. " Eldest miss, this is my business card"Midas said with a smile, his eyes didn't stray away from hers as he held out the business card.She was currently putting on his newest design, a light grey dinner gown, it was exquisitely cut and it molded her slender figure, most people were usually selective when it came to the color grey but the colour suited her perfectly.She took it from his hands, ignoring the frown on Draco's face." Eldest miss, this is a VIP ticket, with this, you'll be given a ten percent discount whenever you visit my store , you can
*The Steele's Manor**Green City* For the first time in his life, he had acted without reason, there should have been a logical explanation for him kissing the pampered heiress but as hard as he racked his brains, there was none, he had simply acted out of impulse. He could still remember the taste of her lips and the faint taste of chocolates she had been eating still lingered in his mouth, he pushed the thoughts out of his mind, he loved Daera and it was impossible for him to suddenly develop feelings for her twin sister. Even though he was surrounded by a huge number of guards, he didn't feel the slightest bit of intimidation as he stood imposingly in front the manor,he had to see Daera. " The second master says you may come in"The guard said as he returned.Venom walked in with the guard and the others heaved a sigh of relief.' he seemed ready to blow up the manor if we didn't let him in'' I wonder why he's here'Even as Venom strolled into the manor, the scowl didn't lea
