LUCAN'S POV.
As I watched her lose consciousness and almost fall down, I quickly ran to hold her. She looked so fragile and weak, maybe from crying too much. I already knew what had happened because I can sense and read her thoughts, something that is new to me because as a hybrid I didn't have the ability to sense and read the thoughts of humans but this lady in my arms was different. As far as she was near me, I could easily sense that she was thinking." Should we take her to the hospital?" My driver asked as I placed her inside the car. " No, go home" I knew she didn't need a doctor right now, she was under emotional and psychological stress. She just needed to rest and she will be okay.My driver gave me a weird look before turning on the ignition, he knew I had never brought any lady to the house in all the years he has worked for me except for Meredith who came intervals and neither has any lady entered my car, not even Meredith." But Meredith ma'am is around" my driver said, I didn't blame him for making that Statement, she was one hell of a scary lady." Oscar, do as I say or come down and I will drive"." Sorry boss" he replied and drove off.When we got to the house, I quickly placed her on the sofa and turned off the AC. She was shivering slightly. It was because of the tin blouse she was wearing, how could someone wear so little in a cold place like Seattle.My phone beeped and it was Xander." Yes, tell me"." Boss, we found the hospital he was kept in and a certain Mrs Austin already claimed the body" came xander's voice from the other end of the line." Okay then, keep me Informed on any other development" I said and ended the call. The lady on the couch was still shivering so I went upstairs to get a blanket for her but on coming back she was already awake and Meredith was standing in front of her, both had different expressions on their faces." I didn't know you were back" Meredith said the moment I walked up to them." I just got back a few minutes ago" I replied, walking up to the sofa, i draped the blanket over her." Why did you bring me to your house?" She asked with a confused look on her face, her eyes darting from me to Meredith who had a sneer on her face." Did you prefer I left you on the streets?" I answered." Thank you very much Mr Lucan but I have to go now, I have things to take care of" she replied and quickly stood up to leave." I already know the hospital your dad is in, I can take you there"." No thank you, your girlfriend doesn't look too pleased to see me here, I will manage on my own".Before I could say anything, she already left. I wanted to follow her but someone held my hand…Meredith." Where are you going?" She asked in a pissed tone." Let go" I sneered, how dare she stop me." Is she the new toy you are playing with now?I remember she was the girl I saw here last week right?"." It seems you have overstayed your welcome in my house, so I suggest you leave"." Do you think you can get rid of me that easily, Lucan? I am your mate, the one destined for you. I do not have an issue with you having a toy to play with but let the toy not bother to take what's mine because I will not hesitate to do something to it" she threatened angrily.I wanted to smack her face so hard but I had to control my anger for now." Meredith, I am a very busy man and my time is money" I replied and walked out of the house but by the time I got out, she was no longer in the compound, I concentrated and tried to find where she was but she had already gone far and I could only hear her heartbeat but not her thoughts." C'mon Lucan, don't be a fool" a voice sneered behind me and it was the queen bee, she wouldn't just let me rest." Oscar" I called loudly and my driver came running inside." Yes boss"." Go to Meredith's room and get her belongings down here now" ." You will do no such thing" she snapped. I didn't bother to answer her,I just kept looking at Oscar who quickly ran upstairs. He has witnessed my anger before and knew how it was." Are you throwing me out because you want that girl to come back?" She asked, I ignored her and walked to the sofa to sit." I will report you to the clan" she threatened again." Do whatever you want Meredith but just get out of my house" I answered lazily." You just met that girl and you are already behaving like this".I looked at her in amazement, " I have never been good to you meredith, you are the one who keeps clinging onto me when you know I don't like you".She scoffed, " Lucan, you can't get rid of me that easily. I do not know your relationship with that girl but if I find out what I shouldn't,I promise I will kill her before your very own eyes".It happened so fast, Meredith found herself pinned to the wall and my hand was on her neck, ready to slash it." In your entire life Meredith, don't ever threaten me again" I sneered angrily. The beast inside of me was ready to burst out and devour her but I had to control it." I am not scared of you Lucan, let it not be what I am thinking though. You know the consequences of going against the law of the clan"." You know the reason why I haven't killed you yet" saying that I let go of her neck and vanished into my room, I needed to cool down. I was very pissed.As soon as I walked out of Lucan's gate,I boarded a taxi and made my way to the hospital. Whether I liked it or not I had to go and see my dad's body. I can't keep running away from the fact that I lost dad forever.As we made our way to the hospital, what the lady at Lucan's house said came back in my mind, she said she belongs to Lucan and I should back off. It was kind of funny for me because I never had any kind of intention towards him, but that was by the way, right now my dad mattered.When I got to the hospital, I saw Nini and her mum sitting at the reception and they looked sad as I had left them. I walked up to them in a slow stride. I just wanted it all to be a lie." Where have you been Mica, you refused to pick up your phone?" Nini said in a concerned voice as she walked up to me." I am sorry Mrs Austin for the way I acted earlier, I was not thinking straight and I am sorry too Nini" I said in an apologetic voice." It's okay dear" she said as she patted my hair lightly.
LUCAN'S POV.As I watched the ambulance drive off, I knew I had made the right choice not to go after her again. That feeling didn't leave my heart but I am Lucan Lim,the man who girls always Chase and not the other way around. I will forget about her like she never existed, it was not a hard thing for me to do at all.When I got back to the house, Meredith was already gone and the house looked quiet again." Finally some peace" I said to myself and went upstairs. Passing by the huge mirror in my room I stopped short because I noticed something on my hair." Is that gray hair?" I asked myself as I moved closer to the mirror, I have never had gray hair before so where was this coming from?.Then In a moment, I could see More than one gray hair, it was becoming alarming for me. Immediately my door opened and I could feel a breeze flash past me, I knew that air and I knew who it was. It was Lai, my half brother. We were not the usual brothers who hated each other and wanted to take our
LUCAN'S POV.We both entered the house a few minutes after 2 am in the morning. Everyone in the house was up and doing because vampires have better vision at night so we considered the night our morning and the mornings when we rested.My mother and stepfather were seated on the sofa chatting when we entered, Lai didn't bother to greet them and just made his way to his room leaving me to talk to them. I haven't been in the house for years but nothing has really changed." So finally this insolent son of yours now knows he has a family" he asked my mom the moment I walked up to them." I don't actually want to be here, I will leave as soon as I am done with what I came for" I replied in a lazy tone, I really was not in the mood to argue with any of them right now." Do you treat me like this because I am not your real father?" He snapped." Here we go again" I muttered under my breath, " I love you and my mom so much okay"." Go and rest, the maid will bring some midnight snack for you
LUCAN'S POV.As I entered the grove with Lai, Anarita was nowhere to be found. The whole place was crystal clear and one could see his own reflection." Now where is this mad woman?" Lai whispered into my ears, he hated going out of his comfort zone and now the witch was not here." If you keep making noise Lai, you will not get that car" I threatened, my face was already getting wrinkled and it was annoying.He wanted to open his mouth and say something when we felt her presence and she appeared." I didn't know you hated me Lai," she said in a teasing tone." You kept us waiting, so obviously I will, '' he replied sheepishly." If you are done with your chit chat, can we go to the business of the day?" I asked her." Fine, I will need you in your full hybrid form,"Anarita replied.I looked at her in confusion, the last time I had turned was Many many many years ago when my clan was fighting with fifteen other clans and I let myself turn so I could help them, and now I have to turn a
MICA'S POVIt was a sunny Friday, I had just finished my part time job at a cafe I recently applied for after dad"s demise. I was getting ready to go home when my boss walked up to me, he was in his mid thirties and he looked rather young for his age. I couldn't lie, he was handsome." Are you getting ready to go, Mica?" he asked as he walked up to the counter." Yes sir" I replied, turning towards his direction." I am sorry I have to take more of your time today, a client has ordered a box of our favorite brownie,the ones you make, can you have it delivered please?"."Ugh" I sighed, " okay boss, text me the details" I added." Thanks Mica, I will add some extra bonus for you at the end of the month" he said and walked away happily.After a while, my phone beeped and my eyes opened in horror seeing the name of where I was supposed to deliver the brownie to…..Lucan Lim." Am I cursed?" I muttered to myself angrily, I tried looking for Lammy, my boss, but he was already gone." Well I
LUCAN'S POV.The moment she ran out of the office, I came back to my senses. How could I just kiss her like that when I knew she was obviously weary of me but her lips tasted Divine and I wanted to have a taste of it again but she already left and I knew she would be cursing me right now. I began to concentrate on her so I could know what she was thinking about me and truly as she made her way out of the reception, she hurled more insults at me than anyone else has ever done and she even Called me a pervert. Well I couldn't blame her, only a pervert who pulled the stunt I just pulled.Still in my reverie of thoughts, I didn't know when my door opened and Lai walked in. It was not until he prodded me did I know he was sitting opposite me." What are you thinking about, brother?" He asked, eyeing me conspicuously." Nothing, why are you here?" I asked, trying to deviate my mind from Mica but it was not happening, the more I tried the more she kept appearing in my head." It doesn't loo
MICA'S POV.It was already past nine in the evening when I decided to go home from Nini's. Her and her mother wanted me to stay the night but I had to go to work early so I declined the offer.My street was already deserted, just a few people walking here and there and that was when my scooter decided to break now." Oh no pinky, not now" I muttered under my breath, it was already late In the night and there was hardly anyone on the streets. My house was still a few minutes drive away, it was really frustrating.I was still in my train of thought when I noticed a flashy sports car stop in front of me. I was wondering who owned such a car in the neighborhood until he stepped out of it……Lucan Lim." Why are you following me?" I asked the moment he climbed down, I was already frustrated and this man was here to add to my frustration." What happened to your scooter?" He asked, buttoning up his suit, he looked really manly doing that I won't lie." It's none of your business" I snapped, "
LUCAN'S POVAs she hugged me out of fear, I could feel a sensation in my body, something I haven't felt in a long time, not with any lady including Meredith and even my mum. it felt like I had found the peace I was looking for all these years and when I tasted her coffee, it tasted divine. Everything about her was just perfect.I didn't want to leave but since she asked, I just had to go but not without connecting my heart to hers and knowing she was thinking about me as I was going too and I felt Happy.That was the expression I had when I entered the house. Lai was seated on the couch with his eyes closed but as soon as I entered, he opened them." It's past eleven brother" he said, sitting up straight and looking at me intently." I had a lot of pending work," I replied, sitting beside him." Are you sure Lucan? Xender just left here"." That brat" I muttered under my breath, why did he have to come over." Stop asking me questions Lai or I will throw you out" I answered and focuse
