"Great-Gran was a man of honor and a great leader to every single member of this clan. He would be greatly missed and loved amongst us. His death came as a shock to us all but today.. we bid him farewell into the land of the dead." Sir Frederick who I can also call the bishop of the clan said in a loud voice. (He is more like the most spiritual person in the clan).

Sir Frederick stepped aside and I, my aunt and my uncle knelt down beside the flowing water. I held a vase in my hands, it contains great-gran ashes... I opened the vase then as I poured the ashes into the water, my uncle, my aunt and me started chanting....

"It is time to leave this world and journey into a greater world,
There is nothing here for you now, So you must go.
Go now, go complete your passing,
Go, and with our blessing fare well.
Farewell."

I poured the remnant of the ashes in the water then stood up.

"Today is not a day of sorrow, so we should continue in our happiness... Great-Gran wouldn't like to be the reason we cut short our happy mode. Let's party people!!" Mr Edward, brother of Mr Grey... Christian's father, shouted. And everyone response with happy shouts.

"I thought all your ancestors left their marks on the wall when they die? I can't see any of Great-Gran." I said to Christian pushing him lightly on the shoulder, as we exit the cave.

"Because back then it's the dragon spirit in them that departed from the ashes, and then leaves the marks. Since great-gran no longer has the spirit of a dragon, I guess we can say that's the cause." He explained and I nod my head. Made sense.

"Well I'm happy my work to your clan is done. You can now walk with me in broad daylight, without being afraid of getting the needle." I smiled happily.

"Yes that's true. And not just I, but the entire clan owe it to you. Thanks Anastasia." His arms went around my neck in one swing, I rested my head on his shoulder.

"So....." he drawled.

"So...." I drawled back.

"What do you think about going on a date with me on this very fine day?"

"I say pick me up by 2pm, not a seconds late." I placed a quick kiss on his cheeks then disappeared to my room, not waiting to hear his response. I love having magic! Makes my exit magical and unexpected.

Now I have to get ready for a date, this is 12 o clock, which means I still have about 2 hours to get ready for my dates with Christian.

Since I have a lot of time on my hand I don't have to rush getting ready. Slow and steady wins the race.

Firstly, I have to call for backup and no other backup is as good, as Britney's.. and also because she's the only backup I have. Yeah, I'm not a socialite.

I picked up my phone to call her, it rang for a while then she picked.

*Whatever you have got to say to me, it better be good... cause i just ended my video call with an incredibly handsome son of man!!* This were the words I heard the minute Britney answered the call.

*Christian is taking me out on a date and I have no idea of what to wear.* I replied simply.

The next few minutes were filled with her screams agonizing my ear.

*Say no more best friend, I will be with you in a jiffy.* She screamed once more then hung up.

Britney wasn't kidding when she said she would be with me in a jiffy, cause in less than an hour she was at my door step ringing the door bell repeatedly.

"Calm your horses would you!" I yelled hurrying to the door, I opened the door on reaching it and just like Britney had said... she is indeed standing right outside door.
