Once Avery had relaxed a little bit, she turned to Adrian, he had a blank expression on his face and it was difficult for her to tell what he was thinking at that moment.“I am sorry about these Adrain”“It is alright, it is not your fault”“It is, if not for me, he would not have shown up right here. I will speak to my Dad about this and make sure that he does not act in such manners again”“Are you not getting back with him?” Adrian asked and there was a bit of excitement inside of her although she could not tell what to make out of his question if it meant that he was interested in her or not.“No Adrian, there is nothing anyone can say that will make me get back with him again”“But you do know that the business relationship your family has with them is based on the marriage proposal, things might not go so well for the Woods Corporation if you end things like that”“If we can't do business with them, then we are going to find something else to do, perhaps a company stronger than
By midnight, Kelvin was at the beach the next day like he had been instructed to do. Getting any sleep was not an easy job for him, the thought of the things that he would finally be able to achieve with this power that he was about to get clouded his mind.The next day, things went through smoothly for Kelvin at the office, he was awkwardly in a good mood compared to how he had been since Adrian started work there and most especially, his projects went well.For him, that was proof that he was destined the acquire whatever power this was as he did not care about the source, all he was concerned about was becoming more powerful than Adrian could ever be.Kelvin stood at the Beach and this time, he was not impatient like yesterday after his encounter with Jason because he was certain that he would come.A car drove to the beach, the whole place was empty at this time of the night and he knew that it had to be Jason, but it was two strange men dressed in a black suit and their eyes full
Jason walks up closer to Kelvin with the blade in his hand, his eyes dark and glowing red, he grabbed Kelvin's arm, he fought so hard to resist and before he could resist, his arm was immediately slit out with the blade. Although it was just a tiny cut with blood dripping, but the pain felt so intense, that he could feel his entire body on fire, the pain going from one arm to the other and then down to his entire body. “Ahhh…. This is so painful… you never told me that it was going to be this hard!!!” He cried out, the regret was now out of reach, a burning sensation deep down in his chest, all he wanted at this point was just to get out of there, he just wanted to go back home and have a nice long nap. “Please make this stop….. I no longer want to gain powers, Adrian can have everything including the estate, none of it matters to me any longer. Please is too much for me to bear…” No one was listening to him nor was there anyone who was going to hide to his cries, he knew that,
The food that Kelvin was having immediately tasted sour to him after listening to the scary words that Jason had just spoken. He carefully placed his cutlery on the glass table, his jaws clenched furiously.“This is some sort of a joke right, you expect me to feed on human blood?”“It is not like there is anything that you can do, the hunger for it is going to come and when it does, there is nothing that you are going to be able to do about it, you are going to need to feed”“Shut up right now!”“Easy there young man…..”“Do not tell me what to do!!” Kelvin yelled so loud as he rose to his feet and smashed the fork he was holding a while ago on the mirror just over the side. He was panting heavily and staring at his reflection in the mirror, his eyes had turned blood red that he could barely recognize himself.“What the hell is that, why do I look like a beast?” He asked, his heart pounding fast at the reality right in front of him.“Which is why I keep asking you to calm down, rage c
The door clicks open as Eva steps in accompanied by a younger boy who seems amazed by everything around the office as his eyes keep scanning around.“Sir. Is there anything else that you are going to need?”Eva asked, there were so many questions still going on in her mind, she could tell that her boss had changed, he looked darker than he used to be.“Did anyone see you come in?” He asked in a very dark tone, his eyes staring deeply at the homeless boy like a predator that had just set his eyes upon prey.“No Sir, I was careful just like you asked”“Shut the door” he instructed and as soon as she did, Kelvin walked over to the homeless boy, his eyes had turned red and were glowing with fury.“Sir….. Sir… what is going on with your eyes, they are red” Eva strutter as she stared at him with astonishment, the homeless boy who was excited at first at his arrival at such a luxurious place was immediately trembling in fear.Seeing Kelvin making his way closer to him, he tried to run away bu
Adrian stormed back into the office, as much as he tried not to look angry, he was fuming with rage. Kelly had noticed the change in his mood and followed him inside.“How did the meeting go?”“It did not go too well!” H responded coldly.“That is not possible! We made sure that everything was in order, what happened?”“I can't answer all of your questions right now, how about you head over to the production team and get me another sample, I want to find out what actually happened”“Oh! Alright, Sir” She responded and although she had questions that she wanted to ask, she dashed out of there.Adrian could not stop pacing around the office while he kept thinking about what had happened that day or how it happened when a knock came through the door and it was his Dad who walked in. That was the last person Adrian wanted to see knowing what he was going to say to him.“Are you busy?” Daniel asked as he stepped in, seeing the expression on his son's face.“Not at all Dad, have a seat”“Wh
After Adrian was through discussing with his Father, he quickly got ready and was about to leave, but just then, Kelly hurried in with the bottle of cosmetics in her hand.“Sir, are you going out?”“Yes, there is something that I need to deal with”“I thought you have a meeting with the PR team today, and it is going to be in an hour”“I know, but you are going to have to explain to them that something came up and I could not be there, just keep me updated about how the meeting goes”Adrian explained as he accepted the bottle of face cream from her and carefully opened it, he supervised it for a while, and seeing that there was not a single fault with it, he was now convinced that it was Kelvin who indeed navigated the whole thing at the board meeting.He placed it on the desk and started walking away from the office while Kelly stood there trying to comprehend what was going on.Adrian hurried inside his car and Klein drove off, Klein had noticed that there was an unusual anger with
Adrian was not aware of the fact that some men were lingering around when he first arrived. Mr. Albert knew that his life was in danger and had been in seclusion for a while now, but with the presence of Adrian, he was forced to open his door despite knowing the risk involved.As both men sat and chatted, Mr. Albert was so distracted by their conversation that he was unable to detect the presence of the sniper at the rooftop opposite his until the gunshot went through and pierced right into his heart.Mr. Albert fell on the floor and when the next shot came through, he was able to dodge it but blood had spilled everywhere, Adrian who was still trying to avoid getting shot crawled over to the other side of the room where Albert clutched onto his chest and was fighting for his life.“Talk to me Master, how are you feeling?”“Adrian, you need to leave right now……” he forced out the words while gasping for breath. Adrian ignores his words as he carefully places his hand on his chest where
