“Are you talking about me, my loving sis?”Veronica’s voice suddenly came from behind, making the hearts of Rebecca and Akash jump into their throats.When they turned, Veronica was right behind them, appearing normal, but there was something different about her eyes and her smile. It was very subtle, but both of them felt it.“What are you two stupidly staring at me for?” Veronica asked and looked around. “What with all this garbage? Are these microscopes?” she waved her hand before her nose. “Hmff, what’s with this bad smell? It smells like chemicals.” She looked at Akash. “Is this your doing? Are you trying to get a PhD in biochemical engineering or something?”Her slightly arrogant look melted Akash’s heart, and he immediately stepped forward and hugged her emotionally. “I thought I’d never see you like this again.”“Huh, what are you saying? Why do you sound like I woke up from a coma?” she asked.“Because you kinda did,” Akash quickly told her what happened, even though Rebecca
In the underground vampire city, Shambol.Zakaria and Cranston were drinking fresh blood wine in a bar while a half-naked brunette was pole-dancing in front of them.“You said you sent a worm into the villa,” Zakaria said. “What can a mere worm do?”“Fool. That’s no ordinary worm. That’s the vril worm. The nastiest worm that’s said to be capable of even possessing a vampire,” Cranston said dramatically. “Of course, us vampires can fight back and coexist with it, but a human surely will have no way of fighting back, unless their mind and body is very clean. However, I highly doubt that anybody living in such a big villa will have a clean mind.”“Mm, vril worm… the name sounds like the name of the city lord,” Zakaria said. “Is there any relation, I wonder?”Cranston’s expression changed. He leaned closer and said in a low voice, “Denise told me that he’s from the Sorian tribe, one of the eight original races of the vampires. That’s why he was able to rebel against the previous vampire k
Veronica did not fight as Rebecca and Akash jumped on her and sealed her limbs to the four legs of the bed.“Hey, why are you doing this to me?” Veronica innocently said. “I’m perfectly fine. I just didn’t like the smell of the salt water, that’s all.”“I won’t trust you,” Rebecca picked up the glass which fortunately still had some salt water inside. She tried to pour a drop in Veronica’s mouth, but Veronica quickly shut her mouth. Nevertheless, when the salt water fell and soaked her lips, she began to convulse a little.Akash’s eyes widened. “W-Why is she shaking like she’s having epileptic seizures?”“I’ve got no idea,” Rebecca stopped pouring the water and moved back. “Maybe, the worm in her body is going crazy? I wasn’t expecting such a violent reaction, though. I guess I severely underestimated the effect of sea water.”“It won’t kill her, right?” Akash looked really tense and worried.“C’mon, it’s just salt water, dude,” Rebecca said. “You act like you’re hurt more than my sis
Jane and Steve brought the wounded eagle to a veterinary hospital.The animal doctor saw the bird and straight away said, “Are you guys coming from the sea shore?”“Yes, doctor,” Jane was very surprised. “How did you know?” “Because this isn’t the first time someone brought an injured bird to this place,” the doctor said. “Please put the bird on the desk. Gently.”Steve put the bird down. As the doctor observed the bird, Steve asked, “Can it fly like before?”“You brought it quickly, so yes, if we reattach it and keep it still for a few weeks, it should be able to fly,” the doctor said to their relief. “However, it will be forced to put more weight into the other wing for a long time until this broken wing fully heals. If it’s outside in the wilderness, it might not survive.”“We’ll keep it with us then,” Steve said, and Jane didn’t look all that willing.The doctor, however, was happy to hear that. “Since you said you’ll keep the bird with you, I’ll do the surgery for free.”“Thank
In the sterling villa’s main hall, Brian’s mom noticed that Jacob and others were staring at the big television screen.“This must be Andrew’s doing,” Jacob blurted in anger. “He purposely put the murder blame on her because she left the villa. Now the police are going to be after her. Andrew doesn’t even need to do anything, and the cops are going to catch her and bring them to him.”Selena looked at her second son. “Why the hell did she leave? She even took the children with her! How can she be so stupid? Now she’ll need to keep escaping from the police. The children are going to be scared. Does she want to permanently scar them or what? She’s not even answering my calls. Call her, and tell her to come back.”Louis stood rigidly, with his arms folded across his chest. “She left the villa knowing that things like these will happen. If she can’t face the heat, she’ll come back on her own.” Saying that he walked away.“This guy…” Selena smacked her own forehead a little. “Is this the t
After treating the eagle, Jane and Steve were coming back to the hotel with the bird placed in the back seat inside a cage. Because it was drugged, the bird was still sleeping.“Do we really have to take care of this bird?” Jane stretched her voice as she drove the car.“I know we came here to enjoy ourselves, but this is also part of life. If we help this bird now, who knows, we may receive help from someone else in future,” Steve tried to reason with her.“I don’t believe in that karma crap,” Jane blurted. “It’s just made to control people’s minds.”“That may be the case, but it is true what we reap what we sow. If we do good, something good will happen to us sooner or later.”“And how do you know that? Personal experience?”“Yes.”“But my personal experience says otherwise. If we try to be friendly with someone, it only gives them the chance to backstab you, so your sowing-reaping philosophy utterly fails in this case,” Jane said.“Well, it actually doesn’t,” Steve said while combi
In Brian’s home, Brian came to the basement where there was a clone of Rebecca that looked very similar to her but not quite like her.“Hello, darling,” she greeted him with a smile and came to hug him, but he pushed her away.“Don’t. I’m not in the mood,” he said and began to check something on the computer.“If you’re not in the mood, then why did you come here?” she asked. “If you’re frustrated, I can help you.”“No, you can’t. You are a soulless trash,” he calmly said, making her smile fade away.“But you did give me intelligence, didn’t you?” she said. “I think I can do a better job than you think, Master Brian.”“No, you can’t. To be honest, I don’t feel that great after fucking you,” Brian said. “It leaves me with an empty feeling because I’m not doing it with the real thing, the real woman, the real Rebecca that I have feelings for. You’re nothing but a lump of silicon and metal.”“But I’m just like her in many ways, am I not?”“No, you’re not. You only look like her. You don’
Rebecca came walking fast into the backyard of the villa, to the spot where they buried what she believed was Benjamin.Louis also got there.She looked at him coldly. “Where’s the shovel?”“I don’t need one,” Louis said.“Are you trying to use your brute force to pull the body out?” she hissed at him. “What will you do if the body gets damaged? What if it’s not fake but the original body? Even if it’s fake, I don’t want it to get damaged for no reason, so go and bring a damn shovel.”“O-Okay,” Louis said and quickly left. After going some distance, he began to shake his head. “I can’t believe I’m going to dig up the soil with a shovel.”Rebecca, on the other hand, was standing right next to the grave. There were no pictures on the grave, but just the name of Benjamin and that was it, as they didn’t know when he was born.All the things she heard about Benjamin after she went abroad to the place where Brian told her, now came to her mind. “Stealing from a place and getting killed… th
