The Secretary by Jeiana Airen (classic fiction txt) 📖

should distant myself  and i need to figure this out.  Because of this urge to feed on Liz i made sure to always stay far from her and not even a glance.  Sending all errands and documents through email or through Peter is what i do.  This monday i have an important meeting at the company base, which means i will be near her again.  She brought the papers and her skin brushed on mine and there is a static but i tried to ignore.  'He did not even look at me or greet me at all. I don't care anymore but why does these tears keep falling' (Liz thought)     

 

'No! I can't take it anymore!'.  Before i knew, i was running towards the office searching for her.  I found her at the corner and seems like she is crying, without thinking i embraced her "I need your blood!"  Her only response is a smile and placed her hands at the back of neck letting me sink my teeth through her skin through her veins.  Since then even if i had my meals i would go to her to get my delicious treat.      

 

Everyday i tried to steal her blood just to sate my thirst after my meal.  What she does not know is even if i am with all those women my thought are to her and no longer take any of their blood.     

 

"Please sir, STOP" shoving a folder between us.     

 

"Why, are you scare that you mask as perfect secretary will be ruined? Besides, you are so sensitive and it's no fun at all" just waving my hand to whisk her away. What exactly is wrong with me drooling over to a mere human specifically a regular one.  She is just like any other meal i had nothing more and nothing less.     

 

My brother visit the office again to discuss some business.  It always irritated me to see him being human and all plus the fact that i had to lived through a different life than him.  A one difficult life under my grandfather which happen to be the king of all vampires.  Such a pain i think but at least i am at the top of the food chain i guess.  Towards the end of the meeting he was now pestering me about Liz being my secretary for the longest time.    

 

"What is your problem?! She is mine, MY perfect secretary which happens to know my situation.  Which is very convenient for me by the way"    

 

"You acting like this, is unusual.  Seeing Elizabeth as she is i can sense that you have been feeding on her.  She is not your type at all and you do not have the right to hurt her"    

 

"Hurt?! She is just like any other of my prey, a food at that and the only thing that separates her from anybody is her being my secretary." I snarl.  Then Elizabeth took the exact time to come inside the office. "Very good Liz, Deslan was just leaving  kindly escort him out and clean everything in this office after" then i just walked out of the room for some air. 

 

9 CONFLICT

     I heard them talking it seems to be about me, at first i was reluctant but i wanted to hear more then... "Hurt?! She is just like any other of my prey, a food at that and the only thing that separates her from anybody is her being my secretary." he snarled.  I knocked to release the tension and enter the room.  He asked me to escort his brother out and to clean everything at his office and he left.

 

"I'm sorry that  you have to see that." Deslan said.  "He is a good person but you know very well how difficult he can also be.  You have been his longest secretary so far and i admire you for that, if there is anything i could help just tell me.  I can promote you or give you the position you want just ask" as he looked at me worried.

 

     I was confused and does not know how to comprehend.  The manager seems to know of our little secret, of me giving the director my blood.  As I realized he was protecting me and tears started to fall from the thought that I may be far from him.  Deslan touched my cheeks lightly wiping the tears and said "you really have fallen for him deep.  I just want to protect you Elizabeth you know Raine is not like us and you two can't be together"

 

"NO! I'm ok and i understand my situation and i am his secretary.  Thank you for the offer but i will stay, besides  there is nothing between us and i am just his secretary and a meal" I answered without hesitation.

 

"As you said Liz, just let me know anytime" and he exit going to his office.

 

     I continue with my task and arranged his office removing any memory of his brothers visit.  I came accross of his pad with the list of all the girls he is with so as their schedule.  Looking through it is piercing my heart thinking of what the manager said.  I am in love with him and i just wish he could return my feeling but i know how great his pride and would not fall for someone like me.

 

     The next day the office was very busy as we have a visitor coming.  I lined up along with the secretarial office when a limousine park in the front door.  She was pretty in dress with her wide brimmed hat and shoul.  The wind blew hard and the hat and shoul blown away showing her pale colored skin and fell to the ground.  The sun was up and she seems to be pained, before i realized i run toward her to cover and asked the others to prepare a room for her.  She seems to have the same condition as the director only to find out the she is his mother who is lso a vampire.  She is very weak and out of duty i even asked her to drink my blood to recover.

 

"Oh no dear, i appreciate what you are doing but we only drink the blood of opposite sex" as she look at me as if gauging me as a person.

 

     I retreat from the corner as i apologize then an awkward silence came over.  I was contemplating of going outside and leave her but i was seemed to stuck within her gaze.  The silence broke as she spoke "You are Raine's secretary are you not?" and i just nod.  There was fear as she emit this aura to me.  "You know Raine is my precious son and an heir as well i'm sure you understand that you are not of the same kind.  Please for everybody's sake leave his side".  I was shocked by how she talked to me as if i have done something wrong.  The weird part is i cannot speak or move and was just mesmerized in placed at the moment and there was feeling that someone is peeking inside of my soul.  It was broken when President Dara entered the room and reach to his wife when he notice where she was looking at.  "Honey stop it, she did not do anything wrong come sit here".  Margaret broke a fake smile and look at her husband with loving eyes asking for his blood.  When the eye contact was removed, i was able to moved and i exit the room leaving them behind seeing Margaret sink her teeth to her husbands neck.

 

     I was surprised by what happened and think of what they can do.  Since director Raine was out of the country for some business I ask the office to let me go home early as i don't feel really well.  Lucky for me that mom was not home and i would be abale to think through my actions.  Seems that a lot of people are against with me being with him even as his secretary so i decided that i want to learn everything about him.  The only way i could do that is if i stayed as her perfect secretary. There is no way the the director would love me but i still want to stay by his side no matter what and cried myself out until i fall asleep.

10 The Council

10 The Council

 

 

     This place still gives me the creeps, it is dark and the silence was deafening to the point that you can hear each other breathe.  I was called by the council for an important meeting about  our race future as to what my grandfather said.  Today is the marked date for him to wake up and pass on the throne to a well deserve successor and since I am his grandchild who said to have great power was one of the candidate.  Mother was a princess who loved a human and bear a child, one human and one vampire.  According to my grandfather my mom fulfilled one of the oldest prohecy that is said to bring prosperity and more power to the clan and I myself do not know how i may be able to do it.

      The big door opened as if sensing my presence and 2 cloaked men gestured for me to come in and was led to a familiar room to spend a few hours.  The room was big, windows that are draped with  heavy curtain as protection from direct sunlight.  Beams lined up at the side near a closet that are full of weapons like daggers, swords, bows, arrows and anything one that can be use for fighting.  You see we vampires may have eternity but we are not really that safe from any physical harm though we do heal immediately with the use of fresh blood.  This place is where i stay most of my years for training and practicing my special skills which was mentioned to give the clan more power among humans.  After a couple of hours of pratice i was escorted back to my room to change and went to what you can compare with a board room where i was greeted by Levil the 2nd in command.

     Levil was my age but unlike me, he was born with two vampire parents and one of them was within
