The Charismatic Return Of Adair Huxley Call This Number If Anyone Tries Bullies You
The bathroom door chose to open at that moment and Collette walked out, her face scrunched up in pain. Adair's cold eyes quickly melted, quickly getting replaced by a gentle and worried one. Then he rushed towards Collette. "What can I do to help?" He asked, standing beside her. "I just need some painkillers. Nothing serious." Collette smiled, trying to keep the pain off her voice. "I'll get it." Adair nodded, when the pungent smell of blood hit him. Blood? Was she injured? His eyes swept over her a number of times before he asked, "Did you cut yourself?" Collette froze, "No, I didn't. Why do you ask?" Adair looked up at her for a while and shook his head, "Nothing. I thought I smelt blood. I was wrong. I'll be right back with the painkillers."Before he walked out of the room, he threw a chilly glance towards Aster's direction. He had no idea who this girl was, but he'd let her off because she seemed to be Collette's only friend. And from what he heard when he stood outside

"What the hell do you think you're doing?" Someone yelled loudly and everyone froze. Slowly, they turned their attention towards its source.It was someone they had never met before, but his dressing hinted he wasn't ordinary. The receptionist replied self-righteously, "Sorry for the disturbance, sir. But I needed to take care of someone unwanted." The man balled his shaky hands into a fist and moved forward. He glanced at their unremorseful faces and declared, "You're all fired!" "Fired? You're not our manager, sir!" The receptionist was almost forced to scoff. The elevator chose to open at that moment and the so-called esteemed manager walked out clutching a box. "Your manager is fired as well." The man retorted. The manager who had no idea what he had done to her fired, raised his words when he heard those words. His eyes went from the decently dressed man to his receptionist who had a shocked look and finally on the two security men. From the looks of things, he needed no
The Charismatic Return Of Adair Huxley I'll Make Collette Huxley Pay
Adair helped Halsey into the elevator and as they waited get to their destination, he heard her mumbling something underneath her breath and paid rapt attention to hear it. "If only we had a house and TV as big as your friend's."He smiled calmly and looked ahead. He didn't know how to tell her they had a new apartment which was a number of times better than Iris' apartment. When the time comes, he was sure Collette would find the perfect away to explain it to Halsey. The elevator stopped and the door dinged open. When they walked past the reception again, Halsey glanced towards the receptionist only to see an unfamiliar face attending to people. They got into the car and Adair reached into his left pocket to take out a phone. He placed it on her legs and said, "I got you a phone."Halsey picked it up and admired it for a while before stating the obvious, "Did your friend get it for you?""Not exactly." Adair replied and ignited the car's engine. Halsey nodded, then went mute. Wh
The Charismatic Return Of Adair Huxley Cripple Yourself
Adair watched Halsey play for half an hour before Jordan found him. "There's someone following you." Jordan whispered. Adair nodded calmly. He had long thought of such a possibility. Although he hadn't seen anyone when he turned, he knew his intuition wasn't messing with him. "Have you found him?" Jordan shook his head slightly, "I've asked a few of our brothers to return. But Zane is currently trying to find him." Adair turned his attention away from Halsey for a moment and she wandered into the midst of wealthy children. She sat on one of the swings and swung for a long time, until she felt a shadow cover her. She slowly pulled the swing to a halt with her left leg and looked up to see who it was. Shrinking back her neck in fright, she hurriedly looked around in search of Adair only to realize to her dismay that she had wandered away from him. The two tall and muscular men gave way to someone and a small figure made his way to the front. He threw a disgusted look at Halsey,
The Charismatic Return Of Adair Huxley Who Are You Two?
Jordan's eyes dimmed when his eyes fell on the little boy who hid behind his extravagantly dressed mother."Are the poor always this presumptuous?" The woman asked with a mocking smile. "We're probably about to witness the unbelievable sight of someone crippling himself after being told to do so." Someone added from the crowd and the whole place erupted in laughter. Zane walked over to the first bodyguard who had been sent flying by a kick from Adair and pressed his boot on his right leg. He placed a finger on his lips and hushed the man, "On the count of three, I'm going to break this leg and you won't scream. Do you understand?"The bodyguard struggled to push him aside, but realized he had no strength left in his arms. He was horrified when he found himself nodding to Zane's words. Zane revealed his signature charming smile as he applied more pressure on the leg underneath his foot. He heard the crunchy sound of the man's bones breaking, then looked up to see the bodyguard's fa

"Older than my ancestors?" The manager repeated in a daze. Zane grinned as he nodded. Jordan immediately knew there was something wrong. He placed his palm before Zane's eyes, obstructing their gaze. Zane hissed silently. While the manager snapped out of his daze. Before he knew what was happening, some men in black rushed in and dragged him. "Who are you? Do you have any idea who I am?!" He yelled, struggling to escape their grip.Unfortunately, these men were way too stronger than him. In frustration, the manager turned towards Mason's wife and pleaded, "Don't let them take me away, Mrs. Garrison, please!" Although stupified, she reacted right on time, "Hey! I can file a lawsuit against you for treating a citizen of Crest Ville in such an inhumane way!" One of the men stopped and glanced back at her. He pulled out a card and shoved it in her face, "We're from the secret police and this man here committed a crime worthy of death." Loud gasps escaped from the mouth of everyone
The Charismatic Return Of Adair Huxley Mistaking Adair For Someone Homeless
Adair reached out just in time and blocked Halsey with his body. The bullet pierced his left shoulder and his eyes shot up to the building meters away from the playground.The assassin had his entire face covered. Hence, Adair could only see his brown eyes.Jordan and Zane sensed the situation quickly. Without wasting time, Zane jumped out of the car and rushed towards the skyscraper. Panic flashed in the eyes of the assassin as he packed his things and fled. "He's not a vampire." Jordan muttered, taking his eyes off the building. "Any building built by vampires in Crest Ville is built with mountain ash. He's way too agile to be a vampire." Adair nodded, dug his claws into his shoulder and dug out the bullet. He faced the steering wheel again and wound up. "I need to get new sets of clothes." "Sure. I'll take Halsey home and return the car." Adair stopped the car along the way and stepped down. He watched the car until it was out of sight. Then he turned and walked into a clothin
The Charismatic Return Of Adair Huxley Let's Kill Adair Huxley
Zane choked on his saliva when he heard that. However, he knew Adair wanted to keep his existence and identity a secret, so he refrained from correcting the manager. "How did you know I was here?" "The system detected the presence of a different card. I was alerted and I looked into it only to realize it was the esteemed black card." The manager replied, becoming excited. Just like a lot of people, he had never seen a black card before, but had been yearning to see one. Now that he saw it was his boss, the manager was delighted. "Lo..Adair, this is Luke Justin. He's the manager of Elite Attires." Zane thought he'd introduce the duo at this point. Luke pushed back his glasses wondering why Zane was intent on introducing him to Adair. Nevertheless, he smiled at Adair who only gave him a small nod. This act made him frown. What right did a homeless man have to nod his head at him? "What street did you pick him on, Mr. Storm?" Luke asked politely, tearing his eyes away from Adair q

The End
"Hello, stranger." Collette heard as she picked up an apple. She didn't need to turn around to confirm who it was. "If you hadn't shown up, I'd have been left with no choice than to believe that you have a conscience." Collette smiled, her back still turned to Hannah. "Conscience?" Hannah scoffed and walked to the shelf housing the apples. "I wasn't in a very good place when I put you in a coma which unfortunately lasted for seven years. In those seven years, Adair hasn't been much of a good ex-lover and he's been hurting. Staying out of sight and reach was the only way to guarantee my safety and that of my brother's." "Ah, I see." Collette smiled, then turned to face Hannah squarely, "My mom has absolutely no idea that her daughter was in coma for seven years. But she's throwing a feast for her return to Crest Ville after seven years of traveling the world. And everyone's invited. Even her enemies aren't left out." "Strange. Your mother doesn't strike me like such a magnanimous w

You've Been In Comatose For Seven Years
Seven Years Later A redhead, clad in baggy pants and a crop top which left her belly button out in the open, nimbly walked up the stairs of the hospital and walked towards an elevator. The elevator opened to reveal a couple making out in it. They quickly composed themselves and lowered their heads in embarrassment when they saw her. The girl smiled and placed leaned on the elevator, closing her ears as she listened to the soft sound made by the elevator as it headed up. After three minutes, the elevator slid open, and she walked out of it, what looked like a school bag, slung across her shoulder. Behind her, the couple in the elevator couldn't help poking out their head in both surprise and awe just before the doors of the elevator closed again and sent them back. This was because no one apart from the family of the person on this floor was allowed up. And it was no news that the family of this person who occupied the whole floor owned the foundation. Collette Foundation. A found

I Can't Lose To Adair
Despite Tucker's threats, Adair didn't bother with him as he bent over and carried Benjamin in his arms. “Kill her.” Tucker spoke into his phone. However, he heard nothing from the owner of the phone. “I think he's dead.” A familiar voice sounded instead. “Jordan? Of course, you're alive, and Adair had everything contained as usual.” Tucker seethed angrily and quickly left the store. He hadn't gotten far when some men, who had their faces covered, walked up to him. Almost immediately, a van pulled in front of them, and he entered the van with them. Tucker hissed numerous times as he tried his best to contain the fact he lost to Adair once again. The van drove for over an hour before it stopped under a tunnel. Tucker alighted from the van and got into a black Lincoln which was parked just beside it. The Lincoln drove out afterward and headed straight to a seven-star hotel. “Why am I being summoned when I haven't done anything?” Tucker complained as soon as he walked into a privat

Have I Ever Told You How Desperate I Am To Kill You?
It took Adair precisely eleven minutes to get to where Tucker held Halsey and Benjamin hostage. He walked in on Tucker spraying something on an unconscious Benjamin. But despite being unconscious, Benjamin would wince in pain whenever it touched him. “Don't you feel ashamed picking on someone lesser than you?” Adair mocked, making his presence known. His words didn't deter Tucker, who kept throwing the water at Benjamin. “Who said he's lesser than I? Someone who Adair Huxley calls father-in-law isn't lesser than me.” “That's that, but I still don't see how a man in his early forties is a threat to you who's more than a thousand years old.” Adair shrugged and found himself a chair to sit on. Tucker dropped the spray he held on the table and glanced above his shoulders to see Adair's cold eyes. “Those cold eyes. Why does it seem like you turned off your emotions?” Tucker asked in surprise. He was yet to hear the news about Collette getting into an accident, since Adair's men were

Adair Only Cares About Collette
“No!” Zane yelled and got up to his feet as soon as possible. However, Sharon didn't fall like he expected because someone else had taken the bullet for her. “Grab her and get out of here.” Jordan hissed, as he dug his claws into his chest and pulled out the bullet lodged in it. Tucker raised his brow before flinging the gun away. “Jordan Hale. It's been a long time.” “I hoped you'd be dead by this time of the year. What a pity that good people die early, while bad people live the longest.” Jordan said in spite. “True. That's why you, Adair, Hannah and I have lived this long.” Tucker chuckled. He had better things to do, such as torturing someone with the name Benjamin Pitt, so he didn't want to waste time with Jordan. Without another word, he rushed towards Jordan and grabbed him violently by the neck, then threw him hard against the wall. Cobweb-like cracks appeared in the spot where Jordan came in contact with. The temporary pain didn't deter him, as Jordan got up almost imme

The Attacker Gets Attacked
Adair and Hannah stared at each other for a long time. Then she lowered her head to her phone and increased its volume. “A few minutes ago, there was a ghastly accident which involved a drunk driver and a beautiful young woman. It's revealed that she bears the name Collette Huxley and is married to the multi-billionaire, Adair Huxley. This happened along…" The reporter's words were drowned out as soon as Adair's phone which was beside him rang out. “Hold on, I think I forgot to say I also compelled the driver to ram into her, then hand himself over to the police afterward. Don't you think I have a great sense of justice?” Hannah giggled. Adair reached for his phone and went numb when he saw it was a call from Collette. He first exhaled in relief when he realized Hannah was just messing with him. “Wife, are you alright?” He asked anxiously as soon as he answered the call. “This is Garrison Hospital, is this Adair Huxley, Collette Huxley's husband?” An unfamiliar voice asked inst

She Might Be Dead
Martha's Penthouse Martha walked into the house to find Tucker drinking like he had been doing for the past three days. She had a book in her hand, which she handed over to him. “I was on my way in when someone said there's a parcel for you. All they need is your signature saying you've received it before they leave.” “A parcel? I didn't order anything.” Tucker frowned, refilling his glass with whiskey. “They can't be mistaken because your name is in this book.” Martha sighed, placing the book on the table. Tucker's phone buzzed at that moment, and he glanced at it only to exhale in disappointment, seeing it was a commercial message. “I can turn them away if that's what you want.” Martha said, reminding him there was still something for him to do. Reluctantly, Tucker reached for the book and signed it. Martha took it and left the house. She returned later with a coffin-like wrapped package. “Is it just me or does it look like a coffin?” Halsey asked, appearing from nowhere. S

I'm Sure Your Death Will Be Avenged
1627, Crest Ville Main MarketThe sun was bright and hot when it came in contact with the skin of humans as usual, but this didn't stop them from carrying out their daily activities. Among them was a woman who went from stall to stall asking one question, “I buy vervain for a very handsome price. Do you have any to sell to me?” Suddenly, she got pulled into a corner by an elderly woman. “Going around the market asking for who has vervain is the most stupid plan I've heard in a long time. It'll only be a matter of time before he finds out what you're doing. Get a grip on yourself, Hannah!” The elder woman berated the younger one. Hannah, who had her red hair held up neatly with a pin and had on a simple floral gown, sighed and shrugged the woman's hand away. “I know what I'm doing, and I'm more careful than usual. For example, do you know Jordan is walking around the market as we speak?” Hannah scoffed. “Jordan Hale? Adair's right-hand man?” The elderly woman asked to confirm th

Don't You Think It's Too Much Of A Coincidence?
Adair stayed home the next day, much to the surprise of Collette. “Are you staying at home because you want to, or you're staying at home, so I won't be kidnapped like yesterday?” Collette asked guiltily. She was currently sitting in front of her working table while Adair laid on the bed fiddling with his phone. When he heard her, he paused and towards her. “I'm thinking of getting you a rope. We'll tie it on our waists, so we don't wander far from each other whenever we go out together.” Adair said, a little too serious. Collette, who was about to laugh, froze. Wait, what? “You're not serious, right?” She asked in horror. Adair, who initially had his serious face on, laughed and got out of bed. He walked up to her and shrugged, “It's no longer safe to leave you at home. Especially with Tucker and Hannah around.” “Hannah mentioned something called vervain. She explained to me, it was something capable of keeping vampires from messing with our head. Why don't you get it for me?”
