Zacharie was seated in his office, his back slouched as he rested his head in his palm and stared blankly at the screen of his tablet.His mind was too clouded to concentrate on the project he was meant to oversee. Images of Amelie's previous distraught state flashed in his mind.He couldn't stop thinking about it, but more so than anything else, his mind was clouded by a mix of emotions.Worry and Anger.For one, he was angry at himself. If only he had not lost his cool and flared up after what she said, Amelie would have been in his room a bit longer and probably would have avoided the kidnapping. Or so he thought.On the other hand he still felt irritated over what she had said. A scowl marred his face each time he remembered her words.She chose to love the father of her children, even though the bast*rd had turned heads and ran with his tail in between his legs.'f*cking Coward.' He cursed the unknown man and sighed, leaning back in his office chair and allowing his gaze wander t

Amelie gawked, confusion written all over her face.Did she just hear right?"W-wait, I'm sorry, but what did you just say?" Amelie questioned, needing to clarify if what she heard was correct.Florence grinned brightly and said. "You're our team leader. Or did you not know?""Huh?""I knew you were a genius and all, but not the type to be air-headed." Florence turned around and picked up the attendant roster from the table, handing it to Amelie so that she could see what position each person occupied. And she was indeed listed as the team leader...the head doctor."Or did Director Arthur not inform you of this?" Florence questioned further when realizing the sheer surprise on Amelie's face."Uh...not exactly." Amelie responded with a light chuckle.From the corner of the room, the vice captain, Diana, scoffed in disbelief, muttering underneath her breath. "I knew those f*cking rumors were too good to be true."Amelie who had caught on, immediately felt the mood around her dampen, cau

Amelie stared at the screen of her phone as it rang with a call from an unknown number. Although the number wasn't saved on her phone, she knew who was calling. This was because she had found and installed on her phone an app that showed the caller's registered information even if the number isn't saved on her phone.Thanks to this, she knew exactly who was calling.Chloe Arnuad. The wicked witch of the south west.After staring at the phone for a few seconds, her lips curved into a frown and she pressed the green icon, answering the call."What do You want?" She asked in a rather bored manner, not wanting to entertain any sort of conversation with someone like Chloe."Now is that anyway to greet your dearest stepsister, Amelie?""Cut the crap. Get to the point." Amelie spat and sighed in annoyance, pinching the bridge of her nose."Fine, fine." Chloe responded and giggled. "I want us to meet up."Amelie scoffed. "Yeah, right, so that this time around you guys are going to what? Sell

Benjamin was the one who suggested that they grab a bite to eat, as a result, Amelie led him towards her favorite restaurant.They chatted on the way, Amelie telling him everything she had experienced while working at Kurenia international hospital and Benjamin talking about his adventures in Germany.They arrived at the restaurant and each settled down in their chairs, ordering delicacies that catered to their needs. While their food was being prepared, Benjamin initiated yet another chat."So, this is where you've decided on settling down in?" He asked, glancing around the surrounding environment to prove his point."Yeah. The people are nice, the environment is pleasant, and the work is rewarding.""So, it's your dreamland, huh."Amelie paused for a moment before nodding her head. "Yeah, I guess you can say that." She mused."Guess?" Benjamin asked, concern etched in his face. He suddenly reached forward and placed his hand over Amelie's. "Amy, you don't have to force yourself to s

Odette stalked along the halls of Zacharie's house with her fingernails caught in between her teeth. She had quietly snuck away after hearing Eric's conversation.Eric's words were still echoing in her head, causing a whirlwind of thoughts to form inside her mind.'If it was her blood, then that would explain a lot of things.' She thought. 'That would also explain why Zacharie has been frequenting the hospital but he said he hadn't seen another. He lied? Why did he lie? Is it because he tasted her blood and realized it has the same effect as the bagged ones I feed him? Does that mean he no longer has any need for me? Does that mean he's going to soon throw me away?' The thought brought her walk to a halt.A shiver ran down her spine, the thought of losing Zacharie to someone else, made her sick.'No,' She thought. 'That can't happen, it can't, I won't let that happen.'Amelie might be the one with the special blood, but she was his fiancee! His future wife! The position of Mrs. LaCroi
