His Beloved(A vampire's mate)

Chapter 22

       
                             *Veronica's POV*

I headed for breakfast, after I discovered I was staving. I woke up late today and had to hurry to get ready.
I wonder why  nobody woke me up.
I miss Derek alot, I wonder why he didn't come see me.

I hurried down the flight of stairs, as I carefully watched each step taken. Adjusting my mid thigh white flea gown which was armless and had a big bow at the side.

"Sorry, I am late for breakfast." I said as I finally reached the end of the stairs, and lifted up my face with a big smile.

"Good morning." Justin and Derek said at the same time.

"Good morning. How was your sleep?" Derek said as he looked at me vigorously, from my head down to my toes.
"You look beautiful." He added.

"Thanks." I said as I blushed a little.
I walked gracefully to my seat. I was served so spaghetti Neapolitan with meat balls
My worst food ever.
I had skipped every Tuesday meal, in high school. Why? Because they served this.

"I can't eat this." I said with a look of disgust.

"Why?" Derek asked as he dropped his cutleries.

"I don't like it. Basically, it's my worst food." I said trying to force out a smile.

"Sorry to say, but you are not a vegetarian anymore, why are you still eating vegetables. I have suffered for years with you. I can't keep on suffering, can't we eat some normal food than some Chinese or Italian food." Justin said with a trace of annoyance in his voice.

"Yea, why are you still eating vegetables. Not that I want you to suck from me." I said with a shrug.

"I am used to it okay. From a very small age I always or mostly ate Chinese foods. All because all our chefs were Chinese.
You can have whatever you want." Derek said as he picked his fork.

"Yeah!" Justin shouted.

"Not you Justin, Veronica." Derek said with a smirk.

"Why do you hate me so much?" Justin said sadly. So overly dramatic. Derek wasn't moved, maybe because he knew Justin was just kidding as usual.
Cause, this heartless vampire was starting to have a heart.

"I don't just know." Derek answered with a smile as he scooped a meat ball of his plate into his mouth.

"Beef steak." I said after a long time of thinking.
Derek snapped his fingers.

A maid cane towards the dining and Bowes down. She must be a chef with her apron and chef cap, I was more certain.
Indeed she looked Chinese, just by the looks of her eyes.

"One plate of beef steak." Derek ordered as he looked get her leave the room straight to the large kitchen.

"Please..." Justin said in a subtile tone.

I shifted my gaze to Derek as I looked at him nodding negative. After a minutes my beef steak was served on the table.
The smell alone can raise a dead person, just to have a taste.
I picked up my fork and knife and launched the beef.

"Veronica, you will  be meeting someone today." Derek said.

"Who?"

"You will see." Was the only thing that came off his lips as he faced his food again.

After some minutes of silence, some footsteps invaded the silence, as it got louder. I looked towards the direction of the sound. And I saw my long wish come true.
Emily was here!.

"Sorry, I'm late." She said with a smile facing Derek. She slowly shifted her gaze to me and then her face lit up with a wide smile, reaching her eyes.

"Veronica!" She shouted with her high pitched tone.

I stood up from the chair and moved towards her and gave her a big bear hug.

"I missed you so much." She said as we broke the hug.

"I missed you too. A lot." I said with a smile." I was afraid I will never see you again." I added.

"I missed your advise, and jokes and you presence in general." She said.

"I know. But what are you doing here?" I asked

"I will gist you later. I am starving." She said.
"God damn...I miss gist time, our usual tradition." She added.

" I miss that too." I said as we both started jumping and screaming, by just thinking how lovely it will be.

"Ladies, keep it down." Derek snapped at us.
Good at kill vibes.

" Sorry, I'm just so excited." I said with a shabby smile.
