"How did you end up in the river?" She asked with a serious tone.
The silver eyes stranger didn't answer her, his silver eyes gleamed mischievously.
"You are doing this again". He reminded her.
"Doing what again?" She asked confused.
I guess I have to refresh your brain,
Do you remember that night when we made a deal, I asked you a question,
"How do you think you'd feel if I do strange things to you?"
Evelyn felt her heart skipping beats and at that moment, she knew this stranger was here to ruin her life. Her body felt warm under his intense piercing gaze. He had always appeared in her dreams, causing her goosebumps, creating fear with a mix of excitement and some forbidden desires which was bad for a maiden like her.
Her face felt hot and she had the urge to jump in the river to calm the burning sensation that was slowly coursing through her body.
The silver eyes stranger smirked at her.
"Do you remember your words my moonlight flower?" He asked with an husky voice.
Evelyn gulped nervously and hard.
She pursed her lips hard before saying,
We made a deal and the deal was over. So there is nothing for me to remember. She said irritated.
"Well, that night you hurt my feelings cause you didn't answer my own question but I answered yours which isn't fair my moonlight flower ". He said with a voice that sounded warm and gentle in her ears.
Stop calling me your moonlight flower. I'm not your moonlight flower. She gnashed her teeth frustratedly.
"So do you agree that you hurt my feelings that night?" He said an amused smile.
"You kissed my hand". She suddenly remembered and the tingling sensation she had felt when his cold lips touched her hand invisibly.
But you enjoyed it. You loved the way my finger tips caressed your skin. He said, his silver eyes gleaming beautifully.
"You wish". She said coldly. But the man was unmoved by her coldness. He was pleasantly amused that she was talking to him fiercely and fearlessly. He was glad that her mind wasn't wary of him anymore. No wonder he could save her from falling.
"Answer my question". She reminded him.
The silver eyes stranger smirked mischievously. He liked her boldness.
"You haven't answered mine. " He pointed out causing Evelyn to almost snapped at him.
"If it's about that question you asked that night, I already told you that you are––" she paused as if looking for the right word to describe it. She knew he was mysterious but she didn't want to say it to his face.
Which man would be liked to be called mysterious.
".... I'm mysterious". He said with a faint smile on his lips making Evelyn pursed her lips.
So will you answer now? He asked with a teasing smile. His smile made his silver eyes stood out more making him very handsome and good looking. If any woman sees him, they will be captivated by his handsomeness and outwardly beauty.
"Fine, I am sorry for hurting your feelings that night". She said coldly.
The silver eyes stranger was slightly amused by her coldness but deep in his heart, he really pleased that she wasn't wary of him anymore.
"I forgive you on one condition". He said with a smug look that made Eve almost want to crush him.
"What?" Eve asked coldly. She had made up her mind that If she wants this mysterious silver eyes stranger not to appear in her dreams or bother her anymore, she would have to be cold towards him. But unknown to her, the silver eyes stranger knew of her plan and he couldn't help be more amused at her foolish plan.
Meanwhile in the Frasers apartment,
Mrs Fraser had just finished preparing lunch and placed it on the small dinning table.
Lila also came and sat next to her mother. She knew how much her mother was angry with her. But now, she must gain her mother's trust back and the only way to do that was to accept the marriage alliance with the royal vampires.
"Mama, I'm so sorry for what has happened. I'm so sorry for letting my curiosity get the better of me. If I had known this is what will result to, I should have just not go. I feel so guilty. " She said glint of tears slowly rolling down her cheeks.
Mrs Fraser turned to look at her daughter who was crying and also feeling regretful of her actions, her heart ached painfully and she dropped her spoon before holding her daughter's hands.
"Don't cry, those monsters are to be blame. They deceieve people of their powers and beauty. So I won't blame you. " Her mother consoled her softly as she wiped Lila's tears away.
Lila didn't stop crying as more tears flowed down her cheeks.
She kept crying non stop until no more tears flowed again. Once she was done crying,
She closed her eyes to summon the courage to tell her mother her plan.
After taking in a deep breath, she opened her eyes and turned to look at her mother and the next words that left her lips...
"Mother, I have decided to get married to Prince Julian". She said with a firm and determined tone.
This was the scene Mr Fraser saw the moment he stepped into the apartment. His Cutlass and hoe fell to the ground making a clanking sound.
This attracted the attention of the two women and they turned to look at who was at the door and Mrs Fraser's heart dropped when she saw the shocked expression on her husband's face on the words their daughter just spilled.
"Lila, did that damn vampire prince compelled you?" He asked with a gnashing teeth. He was deadly serious and furious.
Lila pursed her lips hard before shaking her head.
"No dad, he didn't compel me. I have decided to marry the prince". Lila siad with a firm and resolute voice.
