I was just doubtful if Ben would answer my call. If he were normal and everything was casual, then he might have already sensed my pain and would have reached there for my rescue long ago. But there was something that was keeping him at bay and letting his soul mate suffer at the hands of a wicked person. I craved to know the reason for his having ignored his senses.After our wedding, he used to always be around me, and even if I caught a cold, he used to get worried and heal me. But unfortunately, I never realized that those healing powers were those of a vampire.“Is it that he killed Lily by sucking her blood because she had guessed that he was a vampire or caught him in any of his activities that aroused suspicion in Lily’s mind against him? Perhaps he was scared that Lily would disclose his truth to me, and so he might have killed her. How come I didn’t notice his fangs after two long years of intimacy? How did he manage to hide all the facts about himself from me?” My thought p
Joseph Andrews finally placed my smart phone next to me, dialed Ben’s number, and set it on speaker mode so that we could talk to each other. The phone kept ringing, and there was no response from the other end. I felt really disappointed. He was my only ray of hope, but he was betraying me again.“Did you see? That vampire trapped you in his love just to take advantage of you, and now he is no longer concerned about you. He is not even answering your call, and still you are favoring him? My offer is still active for you. I suggest that you should marry me. If the CEO’s of Frank Automobiles Pvt. Ltd. Company and Venus Automobiles Pvt. Ltd. Company get married, then they will rule the business world. There will be nobody else who will dare to win the race other than our companies when combined. We will be the most powerful, and there will be our monopoly.” Joseph Andrews started off again, as if he loved to pinch my already hurt heart. He was trying to provoke me.Even if you are the l
Joseph Andrews tried his best to ward off the blows and to hit him back, but Ben was so vigilant, active, and strong that he felt helpless and finally seemed to surrender.I looked at Doyle Stalin in surprise. He too seemed to enjoy the sight, as he seemed to hate that wicked person from the core of his heart, but he had a duty towards his wizard community, and so he felt obliged to help Joseph Andrews. All I could see was that the expressions on his old, wrinkly face kept changing.Ben, who could hardly control his rage, decided to end the life of the heartless, proud person in front of him, and he pierced his fangs into his neck, intending to suck the blood of his enemy.Doyle Stalin’s expressions changed again. He felt that he could not let Joseph Andrews die right in front of him. All the guards kept looking at the scene, but none of them dared to come ahead for their master’s help, although he kept shouting and demanding help.All his pride had vanished into thin air, and all tha
Doyle Stalin soon helped Joseph Andrews gain his senses by sprinkling some water on his face and then stroking his hair while chanting some of his magical spells. Joseph Andrews was both frightened and furious at the same time. He wanted to have his plan successful by all means. He couldn’t just let Ben enjoy his liberty. It was a matter of his prestige and ego, and he could do practically anything to achieve his target.He got enraged at seeing Ben caress Anne and seeing that Anne had healed already, but he was a little cautious this time as he had come to know how powerful Ben was, and so he slowly whispered into the wizard’s ears.“He is busy caressing his soul mate at the moment, and he will not realize that you are going to trap him. This is just the right time to cast your magical spells on the vampire. So just go ahead and don’t just act smart, because if you do that, you will be screwed. Did you understand? It is better you keep that in mind before showing any mercy to that va
“Finally! You are in my trap now, vampire. I will assure you that I will get you beheaded soon. I don’t want your existence in the business world to haunt me throughout my life. You were flaunting your supernatural powers until a while ago, but now it is my turn to flaunt my powers as a human. The entire vampire world will be terrorized by your death, and none of the supernatural beings will ever dare mess up with us humans. I simply can’t endure your presence here in the human world.” Joseph Andrew’s speech was influenced by his complacency.“You are not flaunting your own power, Joseph. It is the power of this old wizard, Doyle Stalin, that you are trying to call your own. You are an impotent person, completely deprived of any power. Come alone on the ground, and then I will show you who is more powerful.” Ben roared angrily.“Does your vampire world have no livelihood of your own that you have to struggle in this human world? Why the hell do you want to overpower us humans? You bet
I looked at Ben. He seemed to be calm and composed, undeterred by the talk of his getting beheaded by the stake. He was just looking blankly at the stake, as if he could not sense anything that was happening around him. He seemed to be totally under the control of the wizard, Doyle Stalin. He simply behaved like an encaged animal who was unable to make out that he was imprisoned and who could not speak anything.I got worried again. I was feeling that Doyle Stalin, who pretended to be innocent, was not that immaculate a person and was actually wanting to behead Ben. “Why did he give me the wrong impression if his intentions were malicious? He seems to be in favor of Joseph Andrews. After all, greed and need can make even a righteous person sinful.” I thought as I tried to study the wizard’s face carefully. But this time there seemed to be no change in his expressions. He seemed to be meditating, as if waiting for the eclipse to occur so that he could execute his plans.Soon, we could
The eclipse was over, and the sun seemed to be right overhead, shining with its bright, powerful, and silky rays as usual. Ben, being half vampire, could tolerate the sunlight just as we humans could. He flew ahead towards the west, as I could notice the sun rays coming from behind. It felt warm and cozy to ride on his back.I gripped him tight as I feared falling down from his back during the flight, but I was confident enough and believed that he would protect me from all sorts of injuries even if I fell. He increased his speed as we flew through the clouds, and I tightened my grip on him. I could feel his heart beat as my hands encircled his chest. I felt his touch mesmerizing, and I got an irresistible urge to kiss him. The position on his back seemed to arouse my feelings, and I started craving his love. I pulled his black t-shirt, partially uncovering his neck and his back, and planted a kiss firstly on his neck and then on his back. He turned and glanced at me. I could see that
Finally, Ben landed on a beautiful hilltop. I was just more than happy to see that the hilltop was covered with flowers of various kinds. It seemed like a carpet spread over the hill, adorning it. I was just spell-bound as I gazed at the picturesque sight. The balmy air moving through the flowers and reaching my nose thereafter carried the fragrance of the flowers along with it. I had never witnessed such a sight in the city. It had just recently rained on the hilltop, as was clear by the rainbow formed on the opposite side. The raindrops trickled from the flowers, increasing their beauty multifold.It was quiet and peaceful, away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The beautiful hilltop and the atmosphere there aroused our sentiments, and it felt like a perfect romantic venue for both of us. I regretted having spent my previous two years thinking of him as a human and missing the joy that I was entitled to experience just after the marriage by remaining in the city under work pre
