Annie later focused her attention on Ethan and Mila. "Father, are you scared of your beloved daughter? What about you, Mother? Oh, I just remembered... You're not my Mother". Annie's voice showed how mocking she was being at Ethan and Mila.
"Don't you dare talk to my Mother in that rude way, Annie!". Aria gathered her courage as she announced. After all, to Aria, wasn't this still the same Annie she used to torture and bully? "I like this sudden courage in you, Aria". Annie's expression darkened after she said this. She further continued to speak, "I wonder what would happen to you if I took that courage away from you". "Enough of all this!". Ethan has had enough of Annie. "Alright.... You can all go away now, since that's enough". Annie announced to Ethan. "You!!". Lord Ethan yelled out at Annie, angrily. Mila saw that Annie was distracted, so she decided to use this rare opportunity that she had, immediately!. With full force, Mila drained the whole energy inside of her and unleashed them all against Annie. Mila did this because Annie still held possession of Ethan's dark power in her, and it would be disadvantageous for her to receive another powerful blow!. All the servants and guards behind watched in anticipation of what was going to happen next. To them, this attack was to Madam Mila's advantage. But, it turned out they were absolutely wrong!. The servants gasped in disbelief after witnessing how Annie suppressed the dark power blast unleashed against her by Mila. Suddenly, everywhere became quiet for a while. Nobody moved. They were all dumbstruck by the situation. "Tsk tsk tsk. I thought you could do better, Mila. But you're just as weak and pathetic as your husband. But wait, is Ethan even your husband? Because I don't think I remember you officially getting married to him". Annie said with a smirk on her face. Soon after, she stared at her hand and saw that her hand was beginning to glow because of both power forces she had suppressed. The smirk on Annie's face disappeared and was replaced by a darkened face as an idea entered right into her mind. "Suppressing and absorbing these powers would be a piece of cake. But, why don't I try something different?". Annie turned to face Ethan, Mila and Aria as she said. She didn't even wait for any of them to reply to her, and she unleashed the overwhelming power against them altogether. Annie's power was so powerful that it sent Mila, Ethan, Aria and the servants flying up in the air until their bodies made contact and hit the ground roughly. Ever since that moment, everyone seriously now feared Annie because they didn't have any idea about what changed her to become wickedly powerful!. "Mother!. Are you okay?". Aria panicked, and she ran over to Mila after seeing the state she was in. "Blo- Blood!?. Father, I don't think Mother is well!". Aria announced and was deeply frightened after seeing that her Mother was coughing out blood uncontrollably. Aria glared at Annie with a dark face. ‘How dare that bitch do this to my Mother?’. Aria gritted her teeth in between her thoughts. She badly wanted to deal with Annie and put her back in her miserable place, but she couldn't attack Annie now after seeing what Annie was capable of doing. In fact, Aria was already aware that Annie would injure her if she dared to attack now. ‘Annie, just you wait, I'll kill you by myself! But before then, I'll have to wait patiently, before I find the perfect opportunity to strike!’. Aria concluded with her thoughts. Ethan felt some parts of his bones broken. So, as soon as he got up, he stretched his body and was greatly annoyed after seeing the pitiful state his wife was in. "Take my wife inside!". Ethan ordered the maidservants with a harsh voice, and they immediately rushed to carry Mila inside the Manor. Later on, Ethan turned to face Annie but didn't say anything to her. He was already certain with himself that Annie was definitely possessed by a darker, powerful source. But the problem for him now was, how would he deal with Annie now that she possessed such incredible power?! Ethan had already seen the way Annie held his powers and suppressed that of Mila's, like it was nothing. So right now, he was kinda wary of Annie. Plus, seeing Annie healthy and beautiful, made Ethan even more angry because Annie's appearance reminded him a lot about his late wife. So he hated Annie so much because of that. "Let us go, Aria. We'll resolve this issue later". Ethan ordered. He already saw that there was no other way for him to deal with Annie by himself. Annie was now stronger than he was, which was supposed to be clearly impossible because Annie used to be useless. Though, there was only one option left for Ethan to do, which he had already thought of…. He must report Annie for treason to Lord Davis. Lord Davis should be able to handle Annie by himself. Ethan was satisfied with his plan, so he decided to leave Annie for the time being. But he was certain that Annie wouldn't enjoy the freedom given to her for long. Aria couldn't decline her Father's order, so she left with an angered face. She was really pissed off and it was making her blood boil. But what made Aria extremely angered was because of the sudden change in Annie's face and appearance of figure. Wasn't Annie the same vampire everyone ridiculed because of her ugly appearance? So now, how did she suddenly become this beautiful and have long golden hair? It hasn't even been up to two weeks since Annie left the Manor, and now she has come back looking extremely beautiful!. ‘I'll scratch that face off of your body soon! What a bitch!’. Aria thought on her way as she decided to visit her Mother who was in bad health, and that was all because of Annie!.There was an angry expression on Ethan's face as he made his way to the dark river mansion. He personally wanted to report Annie. He wasn't in his golden carriage and was running on foot. He didn't care about using his golden carriage because he was much faster when running on foot. Besides, all he cared about was to arrive at the dark river mansion and report Annie to the vampire King, Davis, so that Annie would be dealt with, since she was a thorn in his flesh. It took him barely five minutes, and he arrived outside the dark river mansion. The guards stationed outside the mansion’s large gates recognised Ethan, so they allowed him entry into the mansion. Once inside the dark river mansion, Ethan halted and composed himself. He arranged his disheveled black hair and dusted his clothes, while making sure that he looked decent in the eyes, for he could never present himself before Lord Davis looking untidy. Doing so would annoy Lord Davis, who loved to wear gloves and hat
With only 18 minutes left, Morris prepared the potion as fast as he could. A faint smile appeared on his pale face as he stared at the potion which he was holding in his hands.Exactly when Morris the healer was about to feed the potion to Mila, who was unconscious, Ethan snatched the potion from his hand, and there was also a darkened expression on Ethan's face. “You can leave now, healer. I'll feed the potion to my wife by myself”. Ethan declared. “But-”. Morris immediately stopped talking because of the way Ethan was glaring at him. He bowed his head at Ethan and said, “I’ll take my leave now”. After Morris left Mila's room, Ethan went and sat down on the bed next to Mila. He fed her the potion, and even though she was currently unconscious, she drank it all. Ethan kept the cup aside and was deep in thought, as a result of what happened a few minutes ago. {Earlier}Annie halted and turned to Ethan. She had a proud smile on her face as she said to him, “I'll say this once, E
Morris was feeling anxious, but he had to compose himself so that they would stop staring at him with suspicious eyes. He said calmly, “Lord Ethan, I am simply worried about Madam Mila because time is running out. Nothing else”. Ethan sighed deeply. He gritted his teeth and frowned, as he quarrelled with Morris, “I know that time is running out, healer! But other than confronting Annie and dealing with her for causing harm to my wife, what do you want me to do?!”.“I-”. Morris didn't know what to say to Ethan. He could only grit his teeth in secret, as he began to harbor an unquenchable resentment towards Annie. “Did I hear someone mention my name? Or was I hallucinating?”. Everyone had to focus their attention on Annie, who spoke. Standing beside Annie was Amelia. It was now that they had both returned to the mansion from the forest. Their whole bodies were dirty. They had to return home in a hurry because Annie couldn't wait to take a bath. “There you are. You wretched daughter
As Annie and Amelia arrived in the forest, they began to search for wild berries, which was apparently the last ingredient they needed. It didn't take them more than an hour, and they found many wild berry trees. Annie couldn't wait for Amelia, because Amelia was slower than she at plucking the wild berries. So, she climbed one of the wild berry trees, and plucked as many wild berries as she could.But come to think of it, wasn't Amelia's slowness due to her external injuries? “My lady, the wild berries are enough. It's plenty, and they cannot all be used for the potion”. Hearing what Amelia said to her, caused Annie to go down from the tree without hesitation. She couldn't wait to return to the manor, because she wanted a quick bath. Her body was very sweaty and dirty! And she hated that so much. “Gather all the wild berries, Amelia. We're leaving after that”.“I'm on it, my lady”. Amelia replied and giggled, before she went to do as she had been ordered. Lord Ethan's manor,Th
“Ouch! That hurts!”. Annie exclaimed and was massaging her forehead that had hit the forehead of the other person. The guy who Annie had crashed into was also massaging his forehead. He hissed and frowned because he felt a sharp pain in his head. His hand was on his forehead while he said to Annie, “Didn't you see me before you crashed into me, young lady? Is there something wrong with your eyes? I'm now injured, and it's all thanks to you alone”. Annie marvelled after being blamed by the guy who was about her age. She positioned both her hands on her waist and was staring at him in disbelief. “Why are you blaming me? What about you? What happened to your eyes? Didn't you see me? Why did you crash into me? Now because of you, my forehead hurts like crazy!”. “You!”. The handsome guy pointed a finger at Annie. Being scolded by the guy prompted Annie to confidently raise her chin, before she replied to him, “Yes, me what?!”. Amelia was helplessly watching the two, who were busy arg
On their way to the mountains, Amelia was feeling extremely bothered. She badly wanted to ask Annie, who was in front of her, a question. Annie was a strong vampire, and because of this, she was able to read Amelia’s inner emotions. Without bothering to look at Amelia, she asked her, “What is it, Amelia? Why are you troubling yourself?”.Amelia was surprised because of Annie's question. ‘How did lady Annie know I was troubled?’. She mused. She didn't want to keep Annie waiting, causing her to reply, “My lady, I don't understand. Why did you make those suggestions to the advisors of Lord Davis? They are dangerous. So, why would you allow someone dangerous to stay with us in the manor?”. A sudden smile appeared on Annie's face after listening to Amelia's curious questions. She understood what was in Amelia's mind, and equally understood her fears. “Amelia, let me ask you a question”. Annie said to her. She stopped walking and turned to face Amelia, who was behind her, before she aske
