Crave Me, My Monster のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 31 - チャプター 40

~Harriet~His gaze was unreadable. I couldn't tell what he thought at the moment. Not many people knew I'd learned combat, yet this man had openly seen it–a side of me that no one had. Not even my own father. “Daddy, I was so scared just now,” I murmured, walking over and wrapping my arms around his waist as I pushed my face into his chest like a deprived cat. My heart fluttered involuntarily. From fear? Or from something else. I thought he'd question me, yet he just wrapped his arms around me, making a warm, fuzzy feeling coat my being. It was…different. Almost making me breathless. I thought he'd ask what had happened, or where I had learned combat, but he just picked me up, heading to the car. I gasped, not expecting his sudden move, yet, I still buried my face in his chest, muttering a few incoherent words.The whole ride was quiet as I nestled in the corner, my eyes focused on the view outside the window. Rael had not said a word and just worked on his computer. I suddenly reme

~Harriet~ “You–who are you?” Jackson yelled, not noticing the killing intent emanating from Kai. Even I was left speechless. “Who gave you the right to lay a hand on the young miss?” Kai asked, making Jackson's laugh reverberate throughout the air. “You never ceased to amaze me, Harriet. After ruining my reputation, you went ahead to find a sugar daddy for yourself. And I just say, he seems quite capable. Wait…or did you always have a sugar daddy even while we were dating?” He muttered, making me roll my eyes. “I suggest you leave unless you want your face unrecognizable within seconds.” I threatened, feeling the anger that surged in my veins. I couldn't believe there was once a time when I loved this man. There was once a time I believed his every word even while he was screwing some blonde haired bimbo. I'd been really clueless. Jackson, seeing Kai's threatening stance, cast one glance at me before huffing and walking out. The attendant immediately apologized for having such a

~Rael~ I'd been talking with a few business men, yet, my ears had caught her words from afar. My eyes fixated on her red dress, her fiery red hair that was held up by silver pins that shimmered in the light. And how could I miss the image of her long leg that was accentuated by the slit of the dress. It screamed just one word–perfect. I heard the rapid hum of her heart as she muttered how good I was in bed, making me down the glass of wine I'd been holding before walking over. How could I miss the hungry look that was casted by the boy beside her? One look from me and he immediately backed off. I could smell him, I knew what he was–a vampire, just like the rest of the Beaumont family. And just like me, they'd been amidst humans for as long as I could remember. When he left, I turned to Harriet, seeing her big blue eyes rest onto me, and the faint blush that had crept its way up her cheeks. It made something stir in my chest. Something I had never felt before. She stared at me si

~Harriet~ My eyes fluttered open, taking in the light that filtered through the curtains. My skin brushed the sheets, and I groaned. Rubbing my bleary eyes, the incidents from last night flashing through my mind. The banquet, the wine, and then nothing. Had I gotten drunk? I got off the bed, my dainty feet hitting the floor. This didn't look like my room from Rael's mansion. Just as I reached for the door, it swung open, revealing the man. His eyes were devoid of any emotions. “You–why didn't you wake me up!” I almost yelled, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. The man calmly stared at me before going to take a seat in a chair resting at the side of the room. Tsk! I rushed into the bathroom, taking a shower before changing into a pair of clothes I'd found in the closet. I'd just walked over to the door to pull it open when Rael's voice stopped me.“You don't have to go to school today,” He stated, and I watched as an attendant pulled the door open to serve us some food. “And wh

~Author’s POV~Harriet’s lashes fluttered as she stared at him in a daze, wondering what he was doing at the hospital after dropping her off. And he seemed to have changed his clothes, looking more casual, yet he still had an air of grace surrounding him. Had he returned to pick her up?“Let's go,” came his deep, baritone voice in the rain, making her shiver. She suddenly realized the rain had started to pour. Nodding her head, she followed quietly as he led her to the car that had been parked to the side of the road. She was quiet, unable to say anything. Her heart hurts–the same way it always did when her father treated her like an outsider. The truth was that he hadn't always been like that, or he had been pretending the whole time. As soon as he married his mistress, Miranda, he no longer cared about her and only listened to his new wife. She had the urge to chuckle at her luck. After getting into the car, she cast a glance at Rael, feeling something tug at her heart. She had s
