Charles was now able to sleep at night, and sleep peacefully at that.This was the first good sleep he had in years.And he could guess the reason for this sudden change.It had to do with the disappearance of Fang from his head.Previously, Charles wasn’t able to sleep at night for reasons he didn’t know. And he would also fall asleep in the morning even when he never intended to sleep. This had bothered him quite a few times.However, now, Charles could feel something different about his body. His head felt lighter, and the world appeared brighter.Charles got a long ten hour sleep and woke up the next morning. He pulled the curtain of the villa aside, and the morning looked as bright as ever.He could tell straight away that his resistance to the sun has significantly improved. The paleness of his body also softened a little.“Fang… you said you were part of me, but it turns out that you were lying. If you were part of me, I would feel that something is missing in me right now, but
Charles ended up spending the night at the Bisconsley’s estate because Caroline insisted on it. However, he couldn’t sleep well last night. It wasn’t just Charles that couldn’t sleep well, but also Samson and Roger. They were so afraid of losing all the wealth to Laurel and Charles, and they went to Charles’ room and tried to bribe him. He politely told them to leave, and they had to. Unlike Samson and Roger, the reason Charles couldn’t sleep well was because he remembered Narika. She didn’t want his help, so he chose not to bring her with him, but now, he felt that he should have forcibly brought her out. Even when he was having breakfast with Caroline and Laurel, he kept thinking about the times Narika cooked for him, and they ate together. She even taught him how to make lemonade, both the spicy and the sweet types. The memories flashing before his eyes made his heart heavier. He didn’t feel like eating, even though the smell of every dish was very inviting. In the background,
Charles left the Bisconsley’s estate without giving a solid yes or no to Caroline’s question. And he felt guilty for doing that because he was wasting Laurel’s time and energy and more importantly her feelings.However, he probably wouldn’t say yes even if he wanted to right now because he had to deal with Sofia first.And the trauma of being an utterly unsuccessful husband was still there.As he was driving his lamborghini, he turned the radio on, trying to get his mind off of negative things.The radio show host was currently talking with a member of the audience who called her and asked her to play a song for his wife, and when the talk-show host asked why he wanted to play this particular love song, he replied, saying, “I love my wife. Even though she treats me coldly, I still try to give her love, believing that she’d one day change.”The female show host sounded surprised. “But what if she doesn’t change?” she asked him the same question that came to Charles’ mind.“She will. I
In the cottage to the south of the mansion, Narika was watching the ants eat the food placed before her. A rat came for the food, but then the rat’s attention turned to her. It came to bite on her toes, but she flicked her toe finger in the rat’s face, thereby startling it and making it run away.“Greed… will get you killed sooner, buddy,” she mumbled.A few seconds later, her ear jerked a little.About a minute later, the door opened, and an unexpected person entered the cottage wearing an ugly expression.“My daughter… how much longer do you plan to rot in this crappy place?” Victoria asked, seemingly pitying her daughter’s situation. Looking at the rotting food on the floor, she almost vomited. Covering her mouth with a handkerchief, she walked on her toes to avoid stepping on bad spots.Cassey then entered the cottage with a chair and put it beside Narika. Victoria sat in the chair and told the maid to leave.After Cassey left, keeping the door open, Victoria looked at her daughte
One was the codename of the top ranker in the slaughter squad. Her fake male name was Sam, whereas her real name was Samantha.Similarly, Two’s fake male name was Lester, whereas her real name was Leslie.Both Samantha and Leslie found themselves drooling at the sight of a ripe woman that just arrived at Ant’s villa and was clueless that she was being watched by four eyes from within the trees.Sofia was a woman in perfect physical health. Moreover, Samantha and Leslie knew that their master’s son was last dating Sofia, so they felt really inclined to drink her blood and just erase her existence from this world.After all, if there was anything these two female vampires agreed on, it was that both of them used to have a big crush on Raven.When it comes to the taste of blood, it would taste great if the person is either innocent or wicked. If they were somewhere in between, that type of a person’s blood wouldn’t taste that good.Having drunk the blood of Raven a few times from the blo
“W-Who are they?” Sofia was a little confused by their sudden, casual entrance of two slutty-looking women. They were walking as if they owned the place. Her instincts told her that they weren’t some random strangers who were visiting this place for the first time. Were they perhaps hookers that Charles hired the previous night? Did they come here to collect the money?All kinds of crazy thoughts flooded through Sofia’s mind in an instant.And the same could be said for Charles.No, he was feeling it at a greater level, though for a very different reason. He recognized Two by her scent, and then guessed the identity of One.He guessed they would come at him, but he didn’t think it would be so soon. And they just had to show up when he was with Sofia of all times.Before they got within ten feet distance, Charles' hand struck the back of Sofia’s neck, making her faint. He didn’t even have the time to properly put her down on the sofa. He pushed her down and attacked Samatha with a vici
“Spinning Dragon Kick!” Leslie’s powerful kick came at Charles. He had faced this overpowering attack before. He was confident of blocking it this time, but then he also had Samantha to face, so he dodged her kick and jumped toward Samantha.Blood violently twisted around Charles’ arms as he rained punches on Samantha. “Bloody Cannon Course!”Each of his punches were stronger than a cannon, and Samantha was forced to back away while blocking them. Her arms trembled from taking his punches.“Bloody Vortex Knock!” Leslie came up from behind and struck him with a blood vortex the size of a human. Charles’ shirt was torn, and the flesh on his back was cut from the attack.He was forced to stop punching the opponent before him. He swiveled and kicked Leslie.“Dragon Instinct!” Leslie managed to efficiently bend her body to dodge the kick with her feet still touching the floor.Charles’ back was momentarily facing Samantha. “Five Finger Arts…” She used this chance to concentrate flaming ene
Sofia woke up and found herself in the Bones’ hospital.The nurse told her that she was found next to a collapsed villa, and that a guard found her lying unconsciously in the backyard and called for an ambulance.She couldn’t believe that the villa had collapsed. She asked about Charles, but the nurse told her that only she was found, and that Charles was not found under the rubble, so he was not at home when the building collapsed.What caused the villa to collapse? Sofia doubted the mafia and thought back on the two women that entered the villa just before she lost consciousness.“Did they use some kind of explosives to make the building fall?“Are they somehow related to Raven?“Did they come to take revenge on me by taking Charles away from me?”She wanted to cry as well as scream, for there was little to nothing she could do against the mafia.“Charles… Did I drag you into my mess? Where are you right now?”As far as she knew, Charles was able to fight off the thugs, but how coul
