BXBX NOVEL Chapter 80 - Are You Planning To Kill Her?
The room fell in dense silence afterwards. Aaron\'s expression changed into a horrified one as if he was damn afraid to face the reality. He knew very well that Athena was speaking out the truth. But his mind wasn\'t ready to believe that Esme could leave her.
He saw how she threw her life everytime to save him. Maybe her tongue could lie but her eyes couldn\'t. He answered closing off his hazel eyes and replied whispering,
" I won\'t let her go away Athena no matter what. May be I was wrong, I was wrong to use her but now everything is different. Why won\'t she forgive me then? I never mistreated her so far."
Athena sighed helplessly and turned his numb body around. Gazing through his fearful eyes, she explained sincerely,
" If you reveal everything on your own, she will forgive you brother, trust me. But don\'t let her find it first before you tell her, or else it will shatter her feelings and trust for you."
Aaron shook his head blankly fear flashed across his face and denied abruptly,
" I can\'t confess the truth. She will hate me more and leave me,Athena. "
Athena shook his arms and stated confidently,
" She won\'t! Trust me brother, she won\'t. Just tell her your own before it\'s too late."
Aaron averted his gaze far away from her and replied nervously,
" I will think about it. "
Reminding the main purpose of his arrival, he changed the topic and asked sincerely sternly judging her expression,
" Now tell me, you are really willing to marry Zave? Don\'t feel pressured. I will only approve as long as you say yourself. "
Athena\'s face dropped as she lowered her head down. After contemplating for a while in her mind, she lifted up her head again and spoke firmly,
" I\'m willing to marry him, brother. No one forced me."
She laughed bitterly and added holding those invisible tears behind her eyes,
" You know how I am. No one can push her decision on me as long as I don\'t want."
Aaron nodded his head slightly but the dissatisfied on Athena\'s expression couldn\'t escape from his sharpened gaze. Frowning hardly, he patted on her head lovingly and bid farewell before saying,
" Your brother is still alive, Athena. Don\'t forget your own family because of your pains or agony. It will only make you more suffocated. Take care and come to visit me in next weekend. I will choose the day for engagement ceremony soon."
Athena smiled absentmindedly before hugging her brother one last time. Her heart eased up a lot when she realised that at least someone in this world cared for her feelings.
Meanwhile in
MOONSHINE CASTLE,
After Ron left the castle leaving an important documentary for Aaron, Esme intended to take a warm bath today. Thus she instructed the maids to fill up the tub with lukewarm water. But she never knew that her casual preference of taking a warm bath today could reveal the mystery of her life.
On the contrary, this piece of news had travelled into Vanessa\'s ears. She was waiting for the rare opportunity to take her revenge and laughed hysterically after hearing it out from her maid.
Her gaze turned vicious as she put out a little bottle wrapped in a thick red napkin from her pillow side. Handing over the bottle to her loyal servant, she spoke with mockery swinging her hairs playfully,
" Carol, mix this up with her lukewarm water."
Carol asked suspiciously gazing at the slightly familiar bottle,
" My Lady, what is this? Are you planning to kill her?"
Vanessa gave her cold glare before explaining nonchalantly,
" No. Are you mad? Aaron just has forgiven me. I can\'t take the big risk. It\'s just the blood of poisonous hybrid vampire which can suck her human blood hungrily as soon as it will touch her delicate skin. Apparently she will be just paralysed for a few days. Now don\'t waste your time here. I\'m anticipating eagerly to hear her mournful screams. "
Carol seemed hesitated but receiving the harsh glare from her, she reluctantly went to complete her task. On the flip side, the exceptional shower room was fully prepared for Esme. The artificial tub was filled with lukewarm water along with petals of red roses. The fresh fragrance of petals were travelling all over the room and created an intoxicated weather.
After preparing the especial bath for their Queen, the maids went outside to inform Esme leaving the shower room empty. Seizing this opportunity, Carol entered into the shower room and mixed the bloody smelled blood drops into the water as per Vanessa\'s instructions.
After finishing the whole bottle, she quickly departed from there as soon as she heard Esme\'s voice from nearby.
Esme headed for the shower instantly as she felt troubled inwardly. All the wild thoughts were roaming in her mind and made her panicking. Considering the fact that a warm bath could ease up her mind, she headed for the shower without wasting time.
She never liked to be seen by the maids thus she commanded everyone to stay outside at the doorstep. After entering the showerroom, she spotted the lavishing decoration of the entire room and smiled with relief.
Sighing softly, she reached for the chain behind of her gown and very soon, she pulled off all the remaining cloths of her body. She stepped near the tub slowly and slowly entered just a feet to check out the temperature.
Feeling the light temperature, she slipped inside the tub quickly and dove her bare body into the water. She leaned her head against the tub\'s edge and closed off her eyes in comfort.
Inside the water, the tiny blood cells had started running vigorously as soon as it smelled blood. Slowly it started travelling towards Esme\'s dived figure in order to suck her pure blood. Esme had no idea about the disaster happening inside the water as she leaned back leisurely.
On the other side, Aaron had return from the old castle and strode upstairs directly. The shower room was situated on the way of their living room thus he spotted the maids outside while making his way.
When he wanted to ask about Esme\'s whereabouts, his face sank immediately sniffing a very familiar scent. Aaron asked the maids anxiously,
" Who is taking bath inside? Who?"
The maid jolted at his sudden roaring and replied abruptly,
" It\'s lady. She is taking shower..."
Aaron didn\'t wait for her words to be finished and burst open the door banging. He wisely closed off the door before rushing over to Esme with his light of speed.
Esme shivered before letting out a loud scream terrifically. Her eyes went wide open as she spotted Aaron kneeling near her bathtub. Before she could register her mind, Aaron urged her anxiously,
" Get out of the water, get out of the water now."
As he intended to scoop her up in his arms, his expression turned astounded again. He watched her face carefully and tried to look through her body.
Indeed she wasn\'t feeling any pain or injury. Does this mean her powers were unleashed?
On the contrary, Esme was in dumbfounded state and still trying to assert her mind that what was he doing here.
Looking at his perplexed face, she scolded finally,
" What the hell are you doing here? Get out of here, now. Pervert! I\'m taking shower."
Aaron had paid no attention to her cursing instead urged intending to lift her up from the water,
" You can\'t take bath with this water. Come out and let the maids prepare another one for
you. "
Esme was astonished at his oblivious question and denied stubbornly,
" wait there! Don\'t touch me. I\'m not wearing anything, for god sake. Why can\'t I take bath here? "
Frowning hard at her disobedient face, Aaron replied nonchalantly diving his hands into the water to lift her up,
" No reason! I don\'t want you to take bath here and you won\'t. "
Esme quickly scrunched up trying to hid her assets and scolding giving a splash of soap water in his face,
" Don\'t look at me. I can\'t get out of my own. You are behaving unreasonably. You.. you.. turn around and then I will come out. "
Aaron\'s face darkened at her explanation and answered indifferently,
" Why are you acting like a chaste lady? It\'s not like I have never seen you naked before. Well, I never completed the final step but I did everything except that. "
Esme\'s mouth fell open in awe at his blatant words as her ears turned hot immediately. Blushing profusely, she comprised finally and let him scoop her up.
As her bare drenched body came out from the tub, Aaron held her tightly in his arms as she scrunched up her body timidly. She didn\'t dare to meet his eyes and urged constantly,
" Give me the towel fast. Don\'t look at me."
Honestly Aaron wasn\'t in mood of playing with her then. His only concerned was on her safety as he knew very well that what could those blood drops do. Thus he intended to check through all over her body and ordered placing her on the barstool at a corner suggestively,
" Spread your legs now. I have to look through all over your body."
Esme\'s face turned red immediately as she asked him speechlessly,
" What ?????????"
