Chapter 5: A Sudden Visitor

"You are a trap."

Killix’s voice rang in my ears as I seemed to understand what he was trying to mean.

My eyes slowly widened as I still kept my gazes on them.

Killix’s sister, Ciara, suddenly raised her eyebrows yet the sweats forming on her bare forehead said otherwise on what she was trying to act.

“What is your real agenda, Ciara?” Killix growled as he held the latter's shoulder that made her flinched. He then quickly distanced his self away from his sister then massaged his temples. “Do you ever came here just to fool me?”

As I was busy scrutinizing the scenario in front of me, I suddenly felt someone's touch on my back. I was about to turn my head around it but I suddenly felt the strangest feeling with my skin. It is like I was abruptly being dragged by full speed.

The next thing I knew was, I was already in front of Kill, Ash, and Ciara who now had their eyes strangely widened at their extent.

Then I heard someone coughed…

“How's life my dearest delinquent son,” a chilling voice suddenly erupted at my back that made me slowly turned my head at it. My eyes slowly widened as I saw who was holding my back.

I tightly shut my eyes as his claws inside my skin were like playing with my flesh.

“Is this the lucky woman you found?” his voice was already enough to make me felt goosebumps all over my body.

I hardly bit my lower lip as I felt his claws deepened on my flesh more. I winced. My body got quickly numb as all my strength seems to left me.

Lucky? Really?

Geez! That made me want to spit out of my mouth every saliva I have on his face.

“Get off your filthy hands away from her, Villix,” Kill monotonously blurted as he slowly made his way towards me, then snatched me from the man who thrust his claws inside my back.

“Sh*t!” I screeched as I felt my skin being cut off as the latter's claws were suddenly removed. I tightly closed my eyes as I gently placed my palm on my back to check it, yet only made me winced as I touched the freshly wound.

I slowly raised my head at Kill. However, as our eyes met each other, he just looked at me like I was some sort of boring stuff. He then suddenly placed me behind his back.

“Learn some respect, Kill. I didn't raise you to treat me like that,” Villix said as he smirked, and that made me realized one thing.

He is Killix's dad. I facepalmed myself. Then that made the scenario worsen now.

“D-Dad, please don’t do it again,” Ciara suddenly pleaded out of nowhere.

My eyebrows arched as my gaze stayed still on her. I don't know but, I am starting to hate this lady named Ciara.

I don't want to feel it but, I can sense fakeness.

But fakeness of what?

I shook my head as I averted my gaze at my back as the pain suddenly fades away. And I was shocked as the only left was the traces of blood and my cut-off shirt.

As the place suddenly devoured by deafening silence, Killix laugh unexpectedly echoed to the whole place.

He facepalmed his self. “You don’t even deserve to say that you raised me when in fact you just let me die of hunger back then. You abandoned me, right?” Kill pulled my shoulder as he placed me in front of him and his father. “But to answer your question earlier, yes, this is the woman I found who signed the contract.” He suddenly pushed me towards his father, Villix.

My heart suddenly pounds much faster now as the beads of sweat quickly multiplied on my forehead.

“And as what you plan, you evil vampire, you can have her. But as an exchange, let me have my sister.” Kill pushed me now with enough force that made me bumped into his Father's chest.

D*mn! Did I just hear everything clear?

I forced myself to looked at Kill but his cold stare only left me with more fear.

I bit my lower lip as I tried to suppress my racing heart to stop right now.

Am I being used in a negotiation? A barter?

I hopefully looked at Ash beside the wall who just looking statue gazing at the scenario happening in front of him.

I mentally cursed as I realized I am having the same reaction as him.

“It is settled then,” Villix said as he suddenly grasps the area of my body where he entrusted his claws earlier.

I winced in pain as I felt his palm almost crushed my shoulder blade there.

I mentally cursed multiple times as he started to lift me out of the place while he was lowly laughing villainously.

I hardly swallowed the lump in my throat as I took all the courage to voice out my thoughts. I slowly raised my head at the man while he was still dragging me like it was an endless marathon and I was just being a doll.

Honestly, he looks young, almost has the distinct feature with Kill, but only has a mature aura and a dark one that can make anyone shiver every time he speaks. But compare with Kill, he doesn’t have messy hair, and he was all well dressed that made him more looked like a mature lad.

“W-where are you going to t-take me?” I stammered as I said yet still made him turned his gaze from my way.

I was surprised when he smiled at me then laughed, yet it was very different from earlier. It wasn't villainous, it was now psychotic, like he was running out of his mind.

“To the place you deserve, my queen.”

As I heard him, I slowly shut my eyes out of irritation then cursed him under my cold breaths. I suddenly felt the urge to vomit.

I don't want where it was all heading.

Queen? Yuck!

D*mn you, Killix's dad!
