The evening was calm and quiet. At about 10 pm, Maxmillian and Amelia sat in the living room watching movies while stuffing food in their mouths. Suddenly, there was a sound of broken glass coming from the wine shelf. Maxmillian hurried to check what it was, only to find Alexander opening a bottle of wine and pouring himself a glass."Oops… My bad," Alexander said just the very moment he saw Maxmillian."What are you doing here?" Maxmillian asked, looking furious."Calm down, old man. Today is the third day. I didn't get feedback concerning my offer," Alexander stated."What useless offer? I can't let you stay here," Maxmillian added."If that's the case, then I can help you tell your woman what manner of beast you are," Alexander said."Who are you talking to baby?" Amelia asked, her voice echoing from the living room where she sat patiently waiting for Maxmillian to return to her.There was no reply. Maxmillian was dumbfounded. He didn't have the right words to explain to Amelia wha

Maxmillian and Amelia decided to spend the rest of the day hidden in the room. They stay behind closed doors for hours, gossiping and having a good time. Amelia had her head on Maxmillian's chest, while they both lay on the bed. She told Maxmillian everything she discussed with Grace Monroe, including her response to her. "I'm proud of you. I'm proud you stood up to her. She would have taken advantage of your calmness." Maxmillian complimented "I didn't think you could pull it off, for some moments I was scared she would hurt you". He added"Hmm, although she sounded confident. Maybe it was because she has a child for you....""I don't consider him my child. He's a grown man, old enough to cater for himself and start his own family. I have no idea why he's back anyway," Maxmillian interrupted."I still don't understand why you won't touch me, Max," Amelia cried in a low tone. "Maybe if I have a child for you too, I can be more confident like Grace. I have no stand, nothing to fight h

Amelia took off immediately. She ran as fast as her legs could carry. As Maxmillian tried to follow her, Grace held his hands tightly."Where are you going?" she asked."What have you done?" Maxmillian replied rhetorically."Are you going to leave me here and go after that human?" Grace yelled. "That is my woman!!! She is mine. The earlier you begin to accept that, the better for all of us. Get your hands off me" Maxmillian commanded, his voice deep and slow. He tried as much as possible to be calm. Deep down, he knew if he didn't tell Amelia the whole truth, she was going to leave him finally."You have started a fight, Grace Monroe. I promise you it's going to be fair," Maxmillian warned. He left the restaurant immediately in search of Amelia. Amelia had gone very far away from Maxmillian. Tears rolled down her cheek uncontrollably, and she somehow found herself in the woods. Since she left the orphanage home for Maxmillian Knight's house, she hasn't been anywhere outside Maxmill

"Good morning guys" Amelia greeted them, walking down the staircase toward them. "What's with the stare, haven't you both seen me before? Is there something on my face?" She asked, going toward the huge mirror in the sitting room."Noo. No, no, no, not at all" Maxmillian yelled, rushing towards her, l before she was able to get in front of the mirror."You look so beautiful this morning, extremely beautiful, that's why we stared. Right Alex?" Maxmillian called out. Hoping Alexander will back him up..."That's not true" Alexander confesses, tilting his head."What?" Amelia screamed. "You kind of look like a beast," Alexander continued. "Will you keep shut!!!?" Maxmillian yelled at him."You asked me, I won't lie," Alexander added.Amelia kept feeling her face, to know if what Alexander said was true. But there was nothing on her face, the only problem was her eyes. "Ain't you going to leave my front, so I can look at myself in the mirror?" Amelia asked Maxmillian, who was still stan

Maxmillian turned towards Amelia. His face and eyes still looked scary. As soon as she saw him, she became frightened. Maxmillian tried to move closer to her, but Amelia drifted back."What are you?" Amelia asked. Her voice broke, stuttering in fear "You were in my dream" she added."It wasn't me" Maxmillian responded. Still trying to move closer."Stay away from her" Alexander yelled."Stay away from me," Amelia said. "Don't come any closer," she added."Leave us alone. Stay out of this." Maxmillian Roared at Alexander. His voice was like that of a thunderstorm."This is who I am Amelia. I tried to tell you, but I didn't want to lose you. I was really scared you'd leave me if I told you. I'm sorry" Maxmillian cried out. Amelia was shocked at the sight of Maxmillian. The man she loved. She could swear that it was the exact beast she saw in her dream. She became scared. " Don't hurt me please," Amelia pleaded."I would never. Alexander and his mother are the ones who want to hurt you.
