Agnes lowered her head as her heart was fuming with blush, which presented a contrast to her outer cold body. But for some reason she had been growing warmer. Jairus again stretched his hand in a princely manner and Agnes slipped her arm into his as they walked out of the shop together. "Uum...boss, where are we going? Can you please tell me now?" Agnes again questioned him assuming that maybe he would answer this time as his mood was quite good now. To her surprise he did reply to her this time and with details. "We are going to a ball party. A lot of business tycoons from different countries will be attending and you are accompanying me as my partner Miss Regena." Agnes felt relieved as her secret wasn't out and all that was just her stupid assumption. But she felt a new feeling, nervousness. After thirty minutes of driving they reached their destination. Jairus parked the car and took Agnes hand. While Agnes stole multiple glances with him while admiring how wonderful she looked.
"Haha. Sounds great. Good luck." She wished him and they both stood there talking. Jairus' eyes never left her. In the whole party he was seeing her, with his gaze fixed on her wherever she was. "It was a quality time Mr. Williams enjoyed a lot. We will get going now. Good night." Jairus shook hands and walked out towards the parking lot with Agnes. They both settled in as Jairus immediately asked her in a mixed anxious aggressive tone. "Who was that long haired guy you had been talking to a lot?" Agnes' eyes opened wide, not expecting he would ask something like that. "H…he was my brother, boss." Jairus paused for a moment then spoke bluntly. "Mm....good. You should remember this from now on Regena that you belong to me. Only me." Agnes sat stunned at his confession but wanted a clear statement. She could clearly see the tone of his and the way he uttered those words with a warning. "What do you mean boss?" Agnes was confused and did not exactly know what he had been talking about
Although they engaged in conversation, it remained strictly business-oriented. Perhaps both of them were suppressing the events that had occurred, unwilling to acknowledge them. After all, it had been an unexpected confession fueled by jealousy. Jairus stood by, holding his phone with one hand tucked into his waist while the other grasped the device. Agnes approached him, carrying a file that required his immediate signature. She stood nearby, waiting for him to end his call, but Jairus deliberately prolonged the conversation. Growing impatient, she snatched a pen from his table and attempted to communicate the urgency by waving it in front of his eyes. Sporting a bright smile, Jairus' eyes flickered with an unfamiliar emotion. In an unexpected move, he tightly held her hand, refusing to let go. Agnes stood there in astonishment, completely taken aback by the unforeseen turn of events. While Jairus continued his call, he pulled her closer with a sudden jerk, causing their bodies to
"Agnes," Jairus began, his voice filled with anticipation. "Before we step into the ice cream parlour, I want you to know that whatever you are about to tell me, I am here for you. I promise to listen with an open heart and mind." Agnes took a deep breath, feeling a surge of gratitude for Jairus's unwavering support. She reached out and held his hand, drawing strength from his touch. "Jairus, what I'm about to say is something I've kept hidden for a long time. It's not easy for me to share, but I trust you, and I believe in us." Jairus nodded, his gaze filled with understanding. "Agnes, you don't have to rush. Take your time. I'm here, patiently waiting for you." With a newfound resolve, Agnes gathered her thoughts. "Jairus, the truth is, I'm not entirely human. I am a….." Silence enveloped the car as Jairus interrupted her words. Agnes anxiously searched his face for any sign of fear or rejection. To her surprise, Jairus smiled warmly, his eyes reflecting a blend of curiosity and a
Agnes' POV:What's the point of a love story without a rival! I believe Jairus is my Mr. Right. It feels so real now that he is my mate. The words he just spoke, saying he accepts me wholeheartedly, resonate in my ears like sweet music. Do boys like him really exist, or is he the exception? Well, it does not really matter. Jairus just confessed his feelings to me, and I responded with equal passion.But... I'm still confused. There are questions lingering in my mind, or perhaps I should call them fears. The biggest one is: what if Jairus isn't my mate and I become too invested in him? What if I can't move on? What if my heart becomes locked by his love? What will I do if my soul mate is someone else I haven't met yet? And what if he can't accept the fact that I'm a vampire, despite accepting one of my secrets and claiming not to care about my past, where I worked? I suppose that secret was relatively easy to understand, even in this bold society. However, the most dangerous secret i
Jairus' POV:I couldn't believe I had confessed my feelings to her. It felt so foolish how I stumbled over my own words out of nervousness. But there was something different about this girl that made me hesitate, something that made my feelings for her more genuine than any I'd felt before.I didn't want to lose her, not now or ever. I knew about her past, and I accepted her for who she was because I understood the pain she had endured. There were reasons beyond that, of course – her innocence, her pure heart, and her unwavering commitment to the truth, no matter what.She was unlike any other woman I had ever met, and I had fallen in love with her. Her past didn't matter to me; I was ready to stand by her side no matter what dark secrets she might have, just as I had my own.And now, sitting in the parlour with her, I felt at ease. The place was nice, with posters of various ice cream flavors on the wall, and the ice cream itself was rich and tempting. As we chatted comfortably, I fe
Heart is the living instrument which produces the music of love with strings of emotions~Of all the people in the world, love comes to those who deserve them. "Let me drop you home." Jairus requested leaving the ice cream parlour with her. "Uumm...no need I can go. I'll take a cab." With her arm slipped into his, she replied to him softly."Well, you would take advantage of your rich boyfriend!" Jairus reminded her with a chuckle. "I am not that type, SIR." She stressed while pouting like a child."I know I know. That is why you are different. I mean you are quite different from others, I wonder if you are a human!" Walking towards the parking area Jairus teased her but that sentence caught Agnes off guard. She blankly starred at him. With fear visible in her eyes. "What happened?" Jairus inquired being unsure what was happening and why her expressions changed. “Wh…what do you mean by not human?" Agnes held his arm tight as if her 'not so little' secret was out. She felt fear__fear
[Jairus’ POV:]I don't know what was bothering her. She was quiet on the way back home. I don't know the reason but I will find it for sure and will erase it from her life! Yeah, I can do anything to bring a smile to her face.But for one thing I'm happy that she understands me well and she loves me. I do see her perfect__a wifey material. I think I'm rushing towards her. I could give her time if I will ask her to marry. Maybe she will refuse.It's possible and there are many chances of it. As she told me her secret of that night and she doesn't know who the man was. And I can't tell her either, at least not now. Our relationship has just begun. I don't want to spoil it by going that fast. I love her and I can't lose her, no matter what I'll stay by her side.I know it will be hard for her to believe me as I do have a dark past with many secrets. But I will prove it to her that she's the only one that crept into my heart. And She is the only one I want to spend my life with.Though I
