“What's wrong?” Alex asked, following her line of sight.“Why is it still standing?” she whispered, looking at his waist regionAlex chuckled.“You don't have to worry about that, I won't make you eat it again. The one I had is enough to cool my head. Stop looking at me though, it turns me on when you do.” He whispered and quickly reached for his clothes.*****Alex walked into the conference room's backstage, wearing a black suit, which made him look more dashing. His hair was neatly styled back; expensive watch, rings, and special bracelets made with very rare and precious materials. His expensive designer shoe from his own personal designer was sparkling, adding to his charms. Although he was wearing all black, everyone had to agree they looked great on him.

It's an opportunity to broaden your portfolio and create a good news item that will help your career. Our esteemed clients have long gone home.

If you don't want to come, go ahead. For every one person who wouldn't come, ten others will.

We should send the unwrapped portions to other elders of the family which are not in attendance.”Kenzo sighed in anger. As always, the old man was quick to take Hera's side even if she was wrong. They finished their food and thanked him, before leaving together. Immediately they left, their warm playful eyes turned to something monstrous. “If we don't do anything now, it will be too late. She can't get married to someone powerful. And grandpa cannot be allowed to fully recover either. Find the people she sent to get the order. Whenever she sends them to procure the second dose, they should inform us. Let's see how miraculous the dishes can be if it kills old Vanderbilts.

A huge shadow Immediately closed over Aridan, flying through the air to dive on him.Aridan quickly bent backwards, pushing his flaming sword into the creature.The creature howled in anger and landed sturdily on the floor.It ejected the sword out of its body and used fire to seal the wounded spot. “How dare you, little mortal? Did you imagine you could hurt me in my own turf?” He growled furiously.“Baby rahatu, move away quietly, like a good baby demon. Otherwise, don't blame me when the result appears.” Aridan smirked.“Mortal, you must think too highly of yourself.” the rahatu growled.Without warning, the rahatu dived towards Aridan, with his claw extended.Aridan quickly met it with his sword, and his iron boot with spikes below it hit the demon's belly, leaving deep lines on it with blood trickling out.The demon angrily shot out another claw towards Aridan eyes, and in that moment, the all seeing eyes Immediately made Aridan see creatures like millions of soldier ants hidden
