CHAPTER 06


    Ca woke up next morning, alone in that room. Her phone was buzzing on the nightstand. She picked


    it up and said in a sleepy tone. "Hello."


    Sidney yelled from the other side of the line. "Where the hell are you? Do you have any idea how


    worried I am?"


    Ca rolled her eyes on that and replied in an annoyed tone. " Good morning to you too."


    Hearing her annoyed reply Sidney fumed up more and said. "I''m asking you where are you?"


    Ca sat up and spoke. "I''m fine, I will be working from home. Please try to understand…."

    She wasn''t able toplete her sentence, Sidney cut her in the middle. "You think I care about work


    right now. I know you are worried about Sophie. Did you find anything?"


    Ca didn''t want to lie to her best friend but she knew she can''t tell Sidney anything about Ethan. So


    she decided to keep it to herself. "I haven''t found anything now, but I will. Bye." Saying that she quickly


    cut the call. She looked around and found adies knee length green dress on the sofa. She quickly


    got up and looked at the dress.


    She ran her fingers on the dress when Ethan cleared his throat and spoke. "It''s not to just admire. Go


    and get fresh. I''ll make something for you to eat." She narrowed her eyes, took the dress and went to


    the bathroom. She took a quick shower and changed into that dress. She didn''t bother to dry her hair


    and went downstairs.


    Her stomach growled loudly and she looked at Ethan with an embarrassed expression. Ethan didn''t


    say anything, he made her sit and serve her eggs and toast. She ate without even looking around. She


    was hungry. When she finished, Ethan took her te and asked her. "How much do you know about


    these things?"


    Ca gave him a nk look and he understood that she knew nothing. He took a deep breath and


    spoke again. "If we are doing this, then we are going to do this my way. I will be the one to decide what


    to do and when. You will just follow my lead." Ca knew if she tried to fight him with this he would back


    away and she could not afford it. She knew he was the only one who could help her, so she just


    nodded.


    He again spoke. "I also have to tell you and teach you things about our kind."


    She scratched her head and spoke. "Your kind?"


    He looked straight in her eyes and said. "Yes my kind. There are creatures living in this world that you


    know nothing about."


    She couldn''t help butugh. She thought he was trying to scare her. Sheughed so hard and spoke.


    "If you think you can scare me away by telling me some stupid Drac stories then you are wrong Mr."


    He shook his head and spoke again in an angry tone. "Do you even know what kind of creature your


    sister was?" Her eyes widened in shock, as long as she knew, Mara was a human just like her. Seeing


    her shocked face, Ethan understood that she knew nothing about her family, she had no idea what


    she''s getting herself into.


    Ethan took her hand and they both moved to his living room. He made her sit on the couch and he sat


    on the ground. He took her hand in his, looked straight in her eyes and spoke again in a low tone so


    Ca wouldn''t get scared. "Your step sister and her husband, they both were vampires. I know you


    know nothing about these things but this is the truth. They both hid it from you for a reason." Ca


    didn''t say anything, she just listened to him whatever he was saying with wide eyes.


    Seeing her silence, he kept going. " You are a human, maybe that was the reason they hid it from you.


    This isn''t going to be easy for you. I have to teach you everything as soon as possible." She kept


    looking in his eyes for any kind of hint of joke or humor but nothing, she found nothing. He was dead


    serious.


    She had so many questions in her mind but all she could ask was. "Do you know where Sophie is?" He


    stood up and sat beside her.


    He looked in her eyes again and spoke. "Yes, and she''s fine."


    She quickly asked him back, "How do you know that''s she''s fine?"


    He cupped her face and spoke again. "Whoever has taken her, is going to take care of her more than


    you ever have. They must be giving her everything she will ask for. For them, she''s a queen." Hearing


    him, she took a sigh of relief knowing that her niece is fine. Now the only question in her mind was who


    took her? She wanted to ask him, but she knew he wouldn''t tell her.


    Still stubbornly she asked him. "Who took her?"


    He chuckled and replied. "It''s enough information for today. I will tell you the restter." He knew she


    was about to ask him more. He ced his index finger on her lips, shushed her.


    He came close to her and spoke again, more like whispered. "We don''t want you to be crazy, do we?"


    He ended his sentence with a wink and Ca''s cheeks turned pink. She found it very weird, he just


    winked at her then why is she blushing, she thought.


    As if he just read her mind and spoke to her getting even closer. "Maybe, it''s because of the dirty


    dreams of yours." Her eyes widened in shock, she was shocked for two things. One, that he answered


    her unasked question and two he was talking about the dreams she has been having since she saw


    himst.


    Shock was visible on her face and he answered her unasked question. "I can read minds, that''s how I


    know what you are thinking also, I have the same dreams as you." Hearing him, she blushed even


    more. She knew what kind of dreams she was having about him and he knows about them. She


    narrowed her eyes in embarrassment. Her nose turned pink too.


    He pinched her chin softly and guided her gaze towards him. She looked in his eyes which were


    shining like stars. He looked at her lips then back in her eyes. She closed her eyes as he came even


    closer to her. She shivered when she felt his hot breaths on her ear. Her breaths became heavy and


    her heart was jumping in her ribcage. He chuckled and spoke, "Soon but not now." With that he got up


    and left her in the living room alone. She inhaled deeply, inhaling his scent in the process. She liked the


    way he treated her, gently. Stayed there for a while, tried hard to control her heart beat which was still


    beating erratically in her chest.


    He was in the kitchen, washing all the dishes of their breakfast. He was smiling to himself, knowing that


    he is the reason for her wildly beating heart. He couldn''t show that to her now what she meant for him,


    but he couldn''t resist her sweet scent. He wanted to kiss her, he wanted to pin her to the couch and


    explore her body with his hands. But he didn''t want to scare her, or give her the impression of a culprit.


    He didn''t want her to feel ufortable around him. He got closer but controlled himself on the right


    time or God only knows what he would have done to her. She was the verydy he had been waiting


    for. The first time he saw her, he knew that she''s his, but he couldn''t tell her that. Not so soon. She


    needs to feel that for herself.


    He remembered that night, the night before Sophie was taken. He saw his sire in his dream, saying


    that Ca is in trouble. He quickly went to her house and found her in a deep sleep.
