Chapter 56...Carmilla Oh shoot! I also just discovered that his wife and my mother knew eachother quite well! C'mon!!!"I do not mind if you misunderstand me, okay." I equally yelled. "I also just found out when Cole gave me the box.""Cole? How many times do I have to tell you...." He was saying before I cut in."That you do not want to have anything to do with Cole?" I scoffed and exhaled angrily."Oh yes!" He ran his fingers through his head. We both had the same energy towards this confrontation."When would you understand this whole mess? When would you be able to identify who is for you?" My voice became softer, hiding minute sobs. "When would you be able to pinpoint who your real enemies are?" I said the last statement in a near whisper."I do not..." He was replying again, and I interrupted."You do not care...I understand." There was a well-spelt tone of betrayal in my voice. "Then, do not ask further!" I glared at him.He nodded fast, growled and stormed out of the ro
Chapter 55...Carmilla"I bring thee greetings." The woman said with her head touching the flooring.I couldn't fathom who she was paying homage to in such manner; neither I nor Katrina was older than the woman, yet she gave so much honor.When she raised her head, she stood with her shoulders dropped, head low. "I failed to recognize you." She said.'Who?' I wanted to ask.Well, that was not the issue then; the issue was Brenda.Did she perhaps cast a spell on her that she may forget about this?- if that's the case, 'its beautiful' I thought."You have hidden for so long." Katrina said.'Wait. What!' Katrina was the one who was reverend this much respect. I always knew she was no ordinary maid, but who would have imagined that this woman, Pythia would accord her this much respect?"I was graced, your honor." She bowed even more.There was a soft knock on the door, and Evans came in. On seeing Brenda sprawled on the floor, he panicked."She must have been tensed." Pythia lied. "It'
Chapter 54...Carmilla My hand remained fixed on my thigh and would barely move. I lifted my left hand to take the spoon."Carmilla." He called, moving his chair backwards to give space to stand up. Immediately he approached me, he raised my hand forcefully and pulled the sleeve up to my shoulder. I didn't realise my condition had worsened. The lower arm was already red and swollen.He looked at me, then at Brenda."Why didn't you tell me?" He asked."I...it's nothing serious." I liked, pulling my sleeve to cover the hand entirely. Brenda who was sitting at the opposite side looked genuinely worried."It is part of the battle scars." Brenda finally spoke."You should have been gentle." He glared at her."I'm sorry..." She bent her head, and I felt pity for her."It's fine." I picked the spoon with my left hand. "There is a reason hands come in pairs." I joked. No one bought the joke except Brenda. She hid her chuckles when she noticed no one was interested in it."Drop that."
Chapter 53. ..Carmilla She dragged her feet on the flooring as she walked to Evans."It isn't something you would like to see." She grumbled.Evans' forehead squeezed into a frown."Why?" He asked. Brenda shrugged her shoulders."It's from Cole, but..." I was explaining before Evans tore the paper into fragments."How many times do I have to say this?" He rushed at me and grabbed me by my wrists roughly. "What do you have to do with him?" He asked.Brenda rushed towards us and rugged at his hand which held my wrist. "Alpha, Alpha!" Her voice coed like a baby."I knew she was making a mistake. She was just deceived by his sweet looks." She said with a pleading voice which was awfully fake. I was flustered by the turn out of events."Carmilla!" Evans yelled; disappointment in his tone."Admit it, Carmilla. You were just momentarily swayed by his looks and words. Alpha is willing to forgive you," she stared at Evans. "Right?" She asked."Leave us alone!" He yelled in a commanding
Chapter 52...Carmilla I could clearly see his eyes, as the distance between us was short."Aren't you tired of costing us so many lives?" He asked.My heart jumped. Yes, yes. I was tired. That was why I gave up on the ruthless quest. That I'd why we are living our lives quietly here. I wanted to explain these things.If I knew what the stuff was, I would have hurriedly given it up, but I barely had memories of my father, let alone memories of him telling to keep something a secret. Was that the secret Evans thought I kept away from him as well? 'does that mean they are all working together?' I shivered.Jethro dropped the knife and sighed. "You had better put an end to this soon." He said, and took his leave.My soul left my body for a moment. When Jethro left, I felt a surge of life again. I walked out of the water; dragging my feet in the sand underneath.*********************************************************I managed to return to the room unnoticed, as I was dripping wet
Chapter 51.. Carmilla He moved my head off his chest slowly and made me look into his eyes. His eyes were warm and alluring. "Take your time, Carmilla. I would wait." He whispered.His warm breath was on my face.He kissed his teeth, closed his eyes tight and swallowed. Then, he took a long deep breath and exhaled loudly. "I'm sorry. I can't hold back anymore." With his thumb, he traced the curves of my lips, and leaned forward to take them into his.It was our first kiss.I felt a spark jump from the my stomach to my chest; standing on my toes to arch my body for more. One hand roamed my neck while the other held my face in place.He finally let go of my lips and looked into my eyes."You can be irresistible." He said.I nodded. "I'm sorry.""I know you don't want this happening again." His voice was hushed.I wanted to say: 'You're wrong. I want this every morning and night.', but I could barely utter a word. He sighed."There are two beds in our room." He took my hand and led
