I’d thought of convincing Lisa into staying close to me. There was something about this place that Aman was refusing to caution me about.
And the cue of his betrayal was evident around his neck as a wolfs-bane in a chain of leaves, shutting me out from his thoughts and conquering over my abilities to see through his soul.
He captured my attention for a long while as he showed Jennifer around the place and small bushes.
It was too late until my eyes wandered off to find Elizabeth’s only to be met by air that was laced with the taste of greenery of this Paradise.
“Edward.” I turned to Jennifer at her concerned tone. “Where is she?” She finished giving her environment a side glance, a worried one.
I turned to see behind her and Aman was wrapping his hands on his chest, looking both amused and well cognizant of the situation.
I gave him a death glare before turning towards her.
“I’ll find her.” I dismissed.
I scampered off into the woods asking Jenna to stay with Aman—however, I wasn’t sure if it was a good idea or not.
With him, I hoped she’d safe. Though that satisfaction couldn’t mask my overwhelming fear for Lisa, who’d so stupidly ran away on her own.
I felt really less about myself. How could I let her escape? I was so drowned in my stupid emotions that I forgot she had taken off.
And no one saw her! Not even Jenna! If I wasn't wrong―which I hoped I was―she was in a grave danger.
But now Mason would finally have what he'd wanted and my task was completed, right? It was what I was assigned to do.
I was liberated—though that feeling as well brought nothing but a guilt that was consuming my insides in a ravenous hunger.
What was with this guilt building inside of me? I was no longer under his debt and my mother . . . she would be free.
I missed her and I could finally swipe her off her feet and into my arms as I carefully caress her ankles. I wanted to lie on her thighs and feel the vibrant love that could dominate even the beautiful colors of rainbow.
She was such a sweet soul, someone who couldn’t bear a spike on anyone else’s skin because of her mistakes. She would lie to save someone even if it meant risking herself.
And she was trapped with someone like me, a monster.
Sometimes I’d wander how my parents got along so well and loved to bring me into this world. My mother had every morals and values to oppose my father’s.
What would dumbfound me the most was the fact that she never turned, she never wanted to and stayed a human. It must probably be the fear of spending an eternity without her mate.
And for a little part of her morals that still resided in my so-called soul, I cared for Lisa’s sake.
I didn’t covet her to fall in filthy hands of her predators. I was assigned to bring her to the castle so it might as well be me to do it.
At least in that way, she’d be able to escape the unnecessary troubles that came along with other vampires.
They wouldn’t be as kind as me.
The sunlight was almost at the end and the rays were scarcely visible behind the conical peaks. The pinkish glow was merging with orange and flame like appearance of the near sky above the sun's glow.
I had to find her before nightfall as that was when the death roamed the ground. As for Jenna, she would be safe in the baldy’s appearance―I hoped so.
