Alora: The Quod Viride Luscus Vampire

Untitled Part 45

Malik shook his head trying to get those memories out. He looked around and noticed he was on the beach, "Dammit" , he mumbled. He stood up and started walking toward the castle, he has to tell King Titus what Marius just told him. He still didn't complet;y trust Lucis, but he also know he wouldn't come to him unless it's necessary. He reached the castle and went straight to the ballroom. "It seems more guest have arrived", he thought. He scanned the room and found King Titus talking to Lord Cletus over in the corner. He quickly walked over and bowed, "King Titus, I have some important message to tell you. Tristan and Lord Cletus should be present as well". King Titus looked at Malik and nodded, " Ok we can leave the young to enjoy themselves". He turned to Dez, who was standing next to Alora, " Dez, tell Max to go get Tristan and return here. You stay here too and make sure there is no trouble". Dez nodded at him but secretly was excited that he didn't have to accompany him, he could stay here with Alora. He walked over to Max and whispered in his ear and in an instant Max kissed Soshas hand and left. King Titus, Malik and Lord Cletus left the ballroom and went into the study, while leaving the young to enjoy themselves. There were many young people from all over that came to celebrate Aloras birthday, let them enjoy. Once they all reached the study, Malik poured everyone a drink and started to have small talk while waiting for Tristan to arrive.

Aloras P.O.V

When I was standing next to Dez, I noticed how he would cut his eye to me and smirk. Finally he finally said something to me when grandfather was talking and distracted. " I was beginning to get lonely over here by myself, what took you so long?" I just smiled because I knew he was back to his old self. " I didn't know you were so lonely, you had Marina and my grandfather to talk to. Plus I'm sure you wouldn't mind if I caught up with a few of my friends". He turned to face me and smirked, " I thought I was your friend too, but I have to wait and be the last person you see". He moved my hair off my face and kissed my cheek and quickly moved back into his original position. I instantly started to blush, I could feel the heat rising in my face; Just one kiss from him made me lose all my senses. Just as I calmed myself and was about to respond to him, Malik came rushing over and said something to my grandfather. Grandfather whispered to Dez and Dez nodded excitedly then walked over to Max and Sorsha who were still talking to Suri and Lee. Max kissed Sorshas hand and walked out of the room at a very fast pace. I guess I had a complexed look on my face when my grandfather walked up to me, " The elders will retire and let you guys have some fun. Happy Birthday my dear", as he smiled. He then looked around the room and began to walk out with Lord Cletus and Malik following. Dez walked back over to me smiling and grabbed my waist and twirled me around, " I finally get to celebrate with you the way I want to". I started to blush when I realized that I was wrapped up in his embrace. I knew that everyone's eyes were on us but I didn't care, I just wanted to be close to him. He stood me up as Sorsha and Max started to make their way over to us. " You seem to be in a better mood Dez, I cant believe youre showing public affection", Max said in a teasley tone. "It's not nothing wrong with it as long as I display it towards my Other Half", Dez said as he cut his eyes to Suri and Lee who were walking toward us. "Were going to get ready to leave, it's getting late", Suri smiled. "It's too late Suri, Im sure father wouldn't mind if Lee and you stayed the night", as Sorsha chimed in. I know that was a bad idea, especially with Lee here, Dez can't stand him. Before I could object Dez opened his mouth, " That is a good idea Sorsha, if they stay here we wouldn't have to find them later". Suri smiled and looked at Lee, " Looks like it's decided, we're staying for the night". Lee nodded then walked away, I wonder what's bothering him. After everyone started to disperse Dez grabbed me by my waist and began to walk me to the door. He then turned to Max, " I'm about to walk Alora to her chamber, meet me back in the study when you're done". Max smiled and grabbed Sorshas hand and walked away, while everyone was being escorted to their rooms. They didn't have to spend the night, I really don't want to be bothered with them, but I guess grandfather has his reasons.
