Seth’s Pov"I appreciate your efforts, Damon. Thanks for securing the invite," I expressed my gratitude, carefully tucking the invitation card away."Sir, it wasn't a walk in the park. I had to dish out four gold bars to get my hands on it," Damon revealed."You went above and beyond, Damon. You can head back to the mansion now," I instructed, signaling him to depart."Hold on a second... Did he just say he splurged four gold bars on whatever it is you're hiding?" Lotus interjected, her voice laced with astonishment."That's a hefty sum! What on earth could be worth that kind of investment?" she probed further."All will be revealed in due time. But for now, let's not delve into it. You know your insatiable curiosity, Lotus," I teased."Well, you know me too well. It's in my nature to be curious," she retorted playfully."Quite the character you are, Lotus. Anyway, let's head back to the mansion before nightfall," I suggested, reaching out for her hand.

Lotus PovBeing a vampire is a wild ride, let me tell you. The hunger for human blood is something else, like a craving you just can't resist. It's like smelling the most irresistible strawberry juice, the kind that instantly refreshes your body and makes your mouth water.I can finally see why Seth used to act all weird around me when we first met. He would cover his nose or keep his distance, trying his best to control his urge to sink his teeth into my delicious neck and drink me dry.Can you imagine?

~Seth’s Pov~I felt relieved to see the familiar faces as Lotus entered the room. One of the mansion's maids was standing next to Lotus, her face a mixture of resolve and worry. I was left wondering why she went with Lotus rather than Damon, whose presence I had grown accustomed to."Lotus!" I yelled as a wave of relief overcame me upon seeing her. However, a burning question that had been on my thoughts ever since her unannounced arrival forced itself into my consciousness.“Seth, are you okay?” Lotus asked in a concerned tone. “What did she do to you?” "How did you find me?"

"I thought you weren't coming tonight."Ignoring his pleasantries, I led Damon into my study room, my expression a mix of amazement and anger. The room provided a sense of privacy, allowing us to have a conversation without interruption.As we settled in, I took a seat and fixed my gaze directly on Damon, his curiosity evident in his eyes.
