Chapter 32
When his lips brushed mine, it was like a beautiful electrocution. The kiss wasn’t teasing or passionate, it was electrocuting, setting all my entire body on flame. I couldn’t even pull away if I wanted to, no, I didn’t want to. I couldn’t think straight, all my senses have been seduced. The only things I could feel right now were the taste and the smell of him.
“Denis…” he breathed my name, slowly, prolonging each letter. My heart fluttered at the seductive sound of his voice and I leaned in closer, clasping my hands on either side of his face. I have never heard my name being called so sweetly like that… He kissed me hungrily, knocking all the wind from my lungs and I returned it savagely. I felt a moan escaped my lips as he pressed his tongue to the seam of my lips, I opened wider, granting him more access. I arched up against his broad chest…I wanted all of him. I could feel moisture in between my legs and then I felt a painful scratch but I was too occupied to be distract

He watched her as she carefully applied the lipstick to her lips before proceeding to carve the eyebrows. He chuckled in the darkness and the lady turned around, a little bit frightened but she recomposed herself on seeing him.“You need to stop doing that Odin, no one wants you here,” Rashidat said as she applied the rest of her makeup.“Oh, Odin growled, “that hurt my feelings and here I thought you are looking beautiful to impress me.”Rashidat hissed, “you are such a pain in the ass.”“And you are such a naughty girl,” he said, getting closer to her and sniffing in her perfume. The lady was non-challant, she kept on doing what she was doing. Odin found her pair of earrings and handed one to her. Just as she was about to collect, he withdrew his hands.“If you are not going to help me, would you just drop my earrings for me?”Odin chuckled mischievously, “and waste all the fun?” he said and then proceeded to hook the earring to the lady’s ear.

Rashidat couldn’t believe she had almost kissed him. What the hell was that? She sighed and picked up her bag. She had a club to go to and he had delayed her enough. She turned and was headed out when she heard some noise like a man groaning.“Who is that?” She shouted, thinking it was probably Odin playing a trick on her. “Odin, I do not have time for this,” she said but was surprised as a man came crashing into the set of chairs in the passage, startling her.“Oh my God! What the hell!” she shouted but was more surprised when she saw Odin, grinning. “Odin what are you doing? Who is this man?” she asked him, looking at the man in suit who was now bleeding from the mouth and had lost consciousness.“I found him sneaking around, is he a friend of yours?” Odin asked, his eyes shimmering against the light of the yellow bulb.“No, I don’t know him,” Rashidat replied, now a bit scared as Odin was finally showing his real self. “How did you find him?”

Harmony woke up very early the next day, she had a very important shooting and she was getting dressed.It was a Saturday morning, meaning Tracy didn’t have to go to school.While she was getting dressed, she was boiling inside. Maybe the whole thing with Ichabod was a mistake. Maybe she shouldn’t have tried to kiss him when he was clearly with someone else. She was certain that the lady whom she had seen at the club the other night was Dennis. She wished she had taken a better look at her but, maybe it was for the best. Vivi had left early that morning to get ready for the scenes, now Harmony knew that Ichabod would make her late since he had apparently not come back from wherever he must have gone last night.“Take the bag into the car, I need to call Ichabod,” she said to Tanya who was behind her.She took a deep breath and then brought out her phone, she discovered she already had six missed calls from Michael. She rolled her eyes. The day was

He has been waiting in the car for some time. He needed a plan but he didn’t want Odin to mess things up for him, so he planned to do things in his own way. He checked the time, it was some minutes past 12pm, his phone rang and he picked it, it was Rashidat.“Hello,” he said quickly.“Ichabod, where are you? You need to come quickly, the man is away, we can question him, I will meet you with an umbrella, come quickly, Adam is here as well.” Then she hung up.He sighed and quickly dialed Harmony’s number, it was answered by Vivian.“Hello Sexy, “Vivi said.“Oh hi Vivi, please I need to go to somewhere really important, please can you cover for me with Harmony? She mustn’t know that I left?”“Well, I have always heard that after a fight between two lovers, the make-up sex is always great,” Vivian joked, laughing.“Please, Vivian, it’s really important.”“Ok handsome, just know you owe me. She is on set right now so, we won’t be done till

“Have you seen Ichabod?” Harmony asked Vivi who looked startled where she sat.“Jeez! Girl you scared me. Chill, he will show up soon.” She replied, chatting on her phone.Harmony frowned, “he will show up? It’s been more than four hours since I have been on set and he’s not back yet.”Vivian frowned, “come on, chill. Don’t be a stalker girlfriend please. It’s not cool. Here. Take a drink.” Vivia said offering her a cup of wine which Harmony took reluctantly. She sat on a stool next to Vi’s and watched as a new cast took over the set.“Did he tell you before he left?” she asked.“Sure, I only asked him to get something for me, he should be on his way back.”“You asked him to get you something without telling me?” she snapped.“Chill girl, its all part of your birthday surprise which you have just ruined.”Harmony calmed down, “really?”

“Why can’t he just step out of the car!” Vivian shouted loud enough for Ichabod to hear. “I told you darling! He is a fucking Vampire that’s why!” Michael mumbled into Harmony’s ears as he held her around the neck, ignoring her whimper of pain.Harmony was coughing. She kept holding on to Michael’s hand which was around her throat. Vivian was freaking out and Ichabod was looking at them… Why was he not doing anything?**Ichabod kept hitting the clutch…he was tempted to come out but that would jeorpardize everything! He calculated the length of time that might be required to stay in the sun but he knew he stood no chance.Think, think, think!**Harmony was surprised as the windows were rolled up and the car began to move“See, he is leaving you behind. I told you.” Michael said viciously but Harmony couldn’t understand. What was Ichabod doing? They watche

Later that night, Harmony lay on her bed with Ichabod beside her. She was lying on his chest while he put an arm around herShe found comfort in his arms and it was like all the worries of the day were gone except for one thing. She was still confused about one thing and that was, why he never tried to come out of the car. He could have tried, couldn’t he? And why was she suddenly beginning to feel like she may not know him after all. First, the Dennis issue and now Michael said something about him not being who he seemed to be. Yes, the vampire was something too ridiculous but what if he was really not who he claimed to be. She didn’t know anything about him and…“Are you okay?” he asked again.“Yes, I’m okay,” she replied, lifting up her head and looking into his eyes.“Are you still worried about the event today or how you would tell Tracy about us dating?”She chuckled, “all of the above actually.”He brushed pack her hair and planted a

He checked the time for the fifteenth time and realized it was 11:30. Her head was still resting on his chest and with the way she was breathing, he could tell that she was not yet asleep but she was beginning to drift off gradually.He kept patting her slowly on the back and just like that, her breathing became erratic, meaning she was falling asleep slowly. Thank goodness!Slowly, he slid from under her, carefully and cautiously…then when he was finally able to get her properly positioned on the bed, he stood up, checked his time and dashed off.**He found Rashidat already waiting for him outside with the van.“What took you so long? We don’t have all the time.” She said, opening the door for him while he got in. He said nothing for he remembered she had scratched him the last time.“Well, aren’t you going to say anything?” She asked.“How about you apologise first?”“For what?”“For scratching me…” he
