Death's little angel

Audrey dialed the contact yet again and waited with her anxious heart, for him to pick the call but there was still no response.""Oh no!"" Beads of sweats formed on her forehead."Desmond, please pick up" she begged as if he could hear her as she redialed the contact that she had saved with 'my heartbeat' with an heart emoji to it.She had been calling him the entire day but he was not picking up her calls still. She had sent several messages to him but he was not responding to her messages either. "He... He probably got into some trouble. He would be back soon" Audrey tried to tell herself but she knew that was most probably a lie to comfort her aching heart.Desmond was her first boyfriend, he was her first love and they had been dating for two years. Desmond was not so well to do and she was the same. They both had average lives except for the fact that her average was better than his average.For the past six months, Audrey had heard different advise from her friends, telling he

Audrey's life flashed in her face, old memories playing in her head as the waters began to quickly flood her nose."Granny!!!" Audrey called out as she ran into her grandmother's arm.Jumping into her grandmother's arm everyday she came back from work had been nice therapy for Audrey."My beautiful sunshine" replied Henrietta, her granny. Henrietta would never get enough of her grand daughter. Henrietta and Audrey would get locked in a tight hug."Did you miss me granny?" Audrey would ask, giving a her a childlike look.Henrietta would never be able to hold back, seeing that look, she would always burst into laughter."I missed you so much, child" she would admit while painting Audrey's face with kisses.A tear slid out of Audrey's eyes into the waters as her heart squeezed in pains.Audrey felt the natural instincts to struggle but she did not as another memory came replaying in her head."I love you so much Audrey" it was a memory of Desmond, the one who had caused all of these pain

Audrey stood over the grave of her grandmother all by herself wondering what went wrong. She was more than devastated that the blazing hope she was clinging to had bursted right on her face.Audrey was hurting deeply but had ran out of tears to express how she was feeling. She wondered what she was going to do with her life henceforth. No family, no lover, no friend. Her world was indeed lonely and dark.A man stood few meters away from Audrey. It is time for her to fulfill her part of the bargain. He knew how tenacious Lord Adonis was and Audrey might never make it back alive once she started working for him so he allowed her a moment to grieve her family. After a while that seemed like forever Audrey slowly turned around to go back to empty house when she noticed the presence of someone."Maybe he is here to pay respect to his loved one too" she thought within herself. She could relate to his pain but she wasn't in any position to sympathize with anyone so she walked past him.

Adonis knew the girls at his disposal were just alternatives to his one true option, he had to find himself the one person whose blood would liberate him from his weakness. A weakness no one should find out or he would be at risk to lose everything his existence stood for. He clenched his fists. At any cost, he will do everything and anything to find her. Audrey and the other girls continued to live their lives in great torment mixed with fear and a faint glimpse of hope. They woke up each day with uncertainty filled in their hearts. The next moment wasn't promised for them so they worked very hard yet with great caution.Audrey was determined to leave the Palace of Ice and soul but didn't know how. She was also aware that a single mistake could cost her life.Audrey thought about her escape a thousand times in a day. If Azrail could find her the first time, he would always find her again but the only difference was that she had nothing to lose, probably she still have her miserab

Azrail walked away from Audrey with plenty of thoughts in his head. He walked into a room. It was his chamber. Azrail needed to be alone. A girl with the tag number eleven was seen cleaning up this space. The moment Azrail entered, the girl felt a old aura and froze dropping the hand towel in her hands to the ground."I hail you, second master" The girl said frightened while trying to pick up the towel. While the girl was trying to pick the towel, she accidentally kicked the bucket of water beside her and the water splashed on Azrail."Oh my!!! What have I done? Second master, I'm sorry." The girl with the tag number eleven lowered herself in the pool of water she had just created shivering."There are no rooms for mistakes, you know that already. How could you be so clumsy?and how do you intend to clean up this mess?" Azrail questioned while walking towards her.Azrail looked at the girl and immediately felt a sense of deja vu and stopped dead in his tracks. He sure was in the same po
