"what do you want to talk about?"Luke asked Mariana."I wanted to discuss about the incident that happened earlier today"she replied playing with her fingers."what do you want to know about it?"Luke asked staring intently at her."I want to talk about that man that a abducted me,he is strange,were you telling me the truth when you said that he was a vampire,do they really exist?"she asked staring at Luke waiting for him to reply her questions."Do you think am the type of person who jokes around? vampires, witches and werewolves exist but humans are not aware,humans are being manipulated by them"Luke explained to her.Luke sir, Mariana began 'you know that I am asking who exactly my attacker was cause he acted familiar with you' she rounded up.Luke was surprised,he never knew that Mariana saw him with Richard that day."Are you surprised that I saw you two that day?"Mariana asked when she saw the look on Luke's face."Well I saw everything that happened that day,I was just too shock
Mariana was left alone,she thought about her actions and she realized that she made a mistake by blaming her predicament on Luke.She remembered everything Luke did for her since she met him and her heart ached.she regretted talking to him the way she did.she held her head,her head was in turmoil.she needed to apologize to Luke for how she acted.Thinking about her sister,she realized that she hasn't heard from the hospital in a while now.she picked her phone and dialed the doctor's number and the call went through immediately."Hello Miss Mariana,I haven't seen you for a while now,I was even planning to call you before you did, hope everything is alright"the doctor said to her.""yes, everything is alright,I was too busy lately that I forgot to tell you that am on a business trip with my boss to Australia"Mariana said to the doctor who was surprised.wowww was the only word that came out of the doctor's mouth."so how is my sister doing?"she asked."well talking about your sister,tha
"it's a long story but I will make it short for you"the maid said to her and Mariana nodded staring at her waiting for her to answer her question."My family was attacked and everyone was killed,I was the only one that survived the incident"Mariana was touched with her story,she regretted asking the maid about it,she made the maid to remember about her past."I am so sorry for making you to remember this part of your life"Mariana said to the maid."it's nothing,I am not affected about it anymore""you must be a strong woman"Mariana said to the maid but the maid ignored her and continued with her story."I had no home,I had no family,I had no shelter,I had no place to go,it was during this tough moment in my life that Sir Luke found me,he took me in,he gave me a shelter,I stayed here"Mariana'sip curled up into a smile."he is a good man, isn't he?""Yes,no matter how he acts,I know there is a goodness in his heart and I can never betray him,no matter what happens"The maid stated."Hav
"How can you allow Luke to beat you up like a child because of a woman?"Kate asked him."What should I have done?am no match for Luke and I am the one at fault here,I shouldn't have tried to mess with his mate"Richard replied."I am tired of hearing that crap from everyone,who says that you are no match for Luke besides you are not the one at fault here,you didn't know that the woman was her mate so I don't see the reason why he should beat you up,I thought you are brave,I thought you never back down when you want something, what are you doing now?"Kate said to Richard."Everything you said is true but the truth to be told,am no match for Luke"Richard replied her."Who says that you are no match for Luke,that's what you want to believe"Kate said to him."So what do you want me to do?"Richard asked folding his arms together.Kate smiled."it's simple,I want you to fight for your rights,you were interested in that woman, Right?I suggest you go for her"Kate said to Richard who let out a l
After Luke left the Lucas mansion,he didn't know where else he would go,he couldn't return back to his house because Mariana was angry with him.he rubbed his hair out of frustration.finally he drove to a bar.After having drinking so much,it was late in the night,he was very drunk,the first time he was drunk in his life,he staggered to his car.The security guard that worked at the bar stopped him telling him that he couldn't drive in his drunken state but he didn't listen to the man,he warned him never to touch him again.out of fear ,the security guard left him.********on the other hand,Mariana has been waiting for Luke to come back because she wanted to apologize to him for the words she said to him.she checked the time again,she was already getting worried.She went to the room where the maid sleeps and knocked on the door."come in"the maid said.Mariana stepped in and saw that the maid was lying on her bed."I am sorry if I am disturbing your sleep"Mariana said to the maid."it'
Luke knew this was the end of everything,he had never felt so helpless before in his entire life time.the pain of losing his mate was so intense,he hadn't marked her but seeing how she was staring at him like he was the worst monster on Earth hurt him so much.He didn't mind if others see him as a monster but his mate seeing him as a monster was a whole different issue.he didn't want to have a mate before but meeting Mariana changed his entire life without him knowing it,he has already accepted her,he has already accepted to love her as his mate and this happens.He clenched his fists,no matter what happens,he was never going to let her go.she can't just leave him but the next thing that happened kept him Wondering whether Mariana's brain was still intact or Maybe she was sleep walking.Mariana took a few steps and hugged him,she was hugging him so tightly."Thank God that you are safe"she whispered.Luke was surprised with her actions, maybe she didn't see him in his wolf form like he h
Luke was taken aback,he wasn't expecting Mariana to hug him,he didn't mind her hugging him,he was beyond excited that she hugged him. Her body felt so warm and soft which comforted his soul. "Am so sorry,I was just worried about you". Mariana apologized, disengaging from the hug when she realized that she wasn't supposed to hug him. Luke frowned his face, he was not happy that she broke the hug but he did well to hide his countenance."It's no problem,"He said, yawning at the same time and it was obvious that was still drunk."What are you doing outside?""Why is your cloth covered in blood?". They asked each other at the same time, making them laugh hysterically at themselves. "Let's go inside"Mariana said, helping his unsteady movement, Luke didn't bulge,he was still drunk and that's when Mariana noticed that he was stinking of alcohol."Hey what happened to you?"She asked him."I was having a good time in the bar,I was driving to God knows where and I thought you were in dange
The next day.It was morning already, Luke woke up and found himself sleeping on the couch.he wondered how he ended up there.He tried hard to remember what had happened,he remembered being drunk and how he came back to the house when he thought Mariana was in danger but he found her to be alright.What happened next?he thought.He strode into his bedroom and the scent of his mate wafted his nostrils,he inhaled and exhaled smiling to himself but the question should be,why is her scent filled in his bathroom.Then everything that happened the other night came into his head and he also remembered the most important part,he marked her,he smiled to himself.he thanked himself for being drunk but as if realization hit him,he thought about Mariana's feelings. where is Mariana?he thought."who knows how she would feel about the whole thing?"I shouldn't have marked her"he blamed himself for everything.He checked the time and saw that it was already late in the morning.he left his room and went t
