CHAPTER FIFTY-THREE.
"hi."
"hello' unsurprisingly, Lila was still in the library when Cyrus visited her.
"" we just met the, the last time I wasn't able to introduce myself properly.
"yes you didn't…"
"you mind having lunch?"
"sure why not?" But soon she regretted it. Vampires dined on blood and he just said that as courtesy… or so she taught... Soon there were in the dining room. to her surprise, he was actually eating steak.
"why are you so surprised?"
"I mean vampires only drink blood"
"not only blood. When we carve for something else we can have them like steak."
"oh."
"so …. how did you and Darrius meet? Do…. Don't get me wrong. I never expected to see him marry. Ever…."
"Darrius saved my life…." Cyrus wanted to hear more but that was all she said.
"tsk... you have his habit. You guys wont spit out something you don't want to say. He said and sighed.
"are you this annoying? How are you and Darrius brothers?" Lila said frustrated and Cyrus burst out laughing in amusement. He seriously like this sister in law of his.
You know I came here to tell you something."
"what is it?"
"Darrius has never warmed up to anyone before. I hope you can bring out the emotions buried deep in him." Lila paused in silence. Honestly she didn't know what to say. They were not even that close.
"growing up, Darrius bottled up all his emotions and lived on pain... he is currently numb to feelings. So I'm begging you Lila. No matter what do not give up on my brother please. He has been through so much than you can imagine. I'm afraid… Darrius has long lost how to feel Lila…."
