The Bewitching Countess of the Villa Ersandmyne

Pg. 8

Their flight had been long, and they were tired and above all HUNGRY. They could eat human food but only to an extent and that was to a very small extent. At least they were able to get some raw steaks on the plane which soothed them somewhat.

But their bodies craved the sweetness of the delightful liquid that ran through the veins of the human vessels seated around them. I heard how it rushes through their veins as water through a faucet when it opens, seeing it pumping on the jugular vein which was exposed as they were wearing summer clothes. It was a good thing they had self-control and could wait.

Valentina felt bad because she could 'hear' how in need her sister was but what the lawyer had said was true they couldn't have fed before they left Chicago because whoever was looking for them could have picked up on their scent and found out exactly where they were headed. And she then started thinking that they could've also picked up on Cassius and she couldn't stand for something to happen to him or his coven.

Since Valentina had texted Justiniano, all the flight information while they were on the airplane, he was waiting for them, and also knowing that the flight was an almost ten-hour flight, he bought something for them to consume until they reached their final destination.

At their mansion, he had arranged for a finer banquet fit for their status with the help of trusted subordinates. Most of these subordinates would be at their call and beck but that would only be if the girls wanted them.

He, like Darius, couldn't believe that Valentina nor Isabella was still alive. When he sent out the inheritance letter, of course, he hoped he would receive a response. Although he knew he'd have much to answer to since Valentina thought they were well hidden and here he finds them from Spain.

He was so lost in thought about how to explain to them how he found them that it took a wave of sweet nectar from human blood to hit him for him to notice that the plane had landed and people were coming out of the skyway. Not to mention the rushing steps of the people coming through the sky bridge trying to be the first ones at the luggage carousel.

People came sprinting out looking for airline personnel to direct them to someone who spoke a particular language to ask where to catch a different flight because they were late, others asked, "Where do we pick up the luggage?" because they didn't bother to look at the large sign in front of the skyway that said:

Bagaglio/LUGGAGE/EQUIPAJE/MALETAS -------->

Spain always wrote their airport signs in Italian, and English and used two universal types of Spanish dialects.

He kept looking at the people coming out when his eyes caught sight of two beautiful women and instantly knew they were Lucius's daughters as they looked just like their mother. As he walked towards them Valentina knew automatically, that he was the lawyer and didn't put up her defenses.

"Hola, I'm Justiniano, who contacted you both, you need not fear me." "Hello, I'm Valentina, this is my sister Isabella." "A pleasure to meet both of you, firstly let's get your bags and I bought something for you to feed as I know you would be very hungry from your long flight." "I'm glad we have a very smart lawyer." Replied Isabella with a smile.

"Thank you for being so gracious as to bring us something to eat because yes we need to feed as it was very hard to keep control on the plane with such delicacies, I'm sure you understand." "Yes, I do so let's get you both out of here as soon as possible."

Justiniano saw a multitude of people around the luggage carousal as not only the girl's plane arrived but while waiting, he had counted 5 airplanes that had landed and the temptation would be too much for them not having fed for almost 12 hours.

"Valentina, since you can see how grand is the temptation and what could happen, why don't you give me the tickets to your luggage and both of you go to my car, I'm sure with your abilities you will be able to find it." "Sounds like a good idea. Let me get Isabella before she enters the restroom."

"Here are the key cars, in the trunk you will find a cooler, and food." After which he winked at her, and after thanking him she 'summoned' Isabella to let her know if she wanted to eat, she had better accompany her. Isabella quickly turned on her heels and followed Valentina out of the airport doors.
