WITCH.
Suddenly I saw a small dagger on the bed. Then a voice came from the corner of the room " kill him sister now you have the chance, kill the demon and end our suffering" amidst pleasure I saw a beautiful lady by the side of the wall with long dark hair, her eyes were green and silver in colour.
"Just kill him he doesn't love you and never will,he hates witches" she said crying blood and the whole room turned dark. I subconsciously picked the blade from the bed. But Adrian raised his head to me and hit the blade from my hand.
"Eva, Eva..." I woke up to Adrian tapping me. I was all sweaty upon the ac in the room. "A nightmare ?" he asked, handing me a glass of water, I shakingly collected and drank it. He tried coming closer but I shifted back. He smiled and said " was it about me?" I didn't respond.
"I will never hurt you" he added
"How did I end up in the bedroom?" I ask, trying to calm myself down. " I brought you in," he replied. My heart could not stop pounding in my chest. It all felt very real.
I laid down thinking about the nightmare I had. Adrian walked out of the room. I heard him making a call with someone on the phone. I didn't know what it was but after this night I am leaving this place for good.
I felt a ray of sunlight on my face. It was morning already. I didn't know how I fell asleep but thank God I did.
I quickly stood up from the bed. I noticed Adrian was not in the room as usual. I quickly took the clothes and headed for the bathroom. Within some minutes I was down but when I walked out of the bathroom my gaze met Adrian. He was sitting in the bedroom all dressed in white looking like a demi-god. Can't deny the fact that this guy is really handsome.
"You won't, have breakfast before you leave? " he asked. I shook my head, signaling no. " Fine then, go outside Damon will drive you home "he replied, barely looking at me.
I quickly walked out of the room. As I walked past the hall I heard some people whispering " is she the one that spent the night with the boss " I knew they were talking about me and Adrian but I ignored them and everyone was staring at me.
When I headed out of the hotel I saw Damon standing by the car. He looked at me and gave a smile that didn't reach his eyes as I walked closer to him. He gently opened the car for me and I got in and he drove off.
Damon is a nice guy with a friendly aura. Each time I ask him a question he just replies once he never tries to start a conversation. He prefers to be quiet. Well murders are mostly quiet I thought inwardly.
It was a two hours drive of long silence
before we got to my house. I was so happy that I was going to see my dad and never will I see Adrian and Damon again.
As I opened the door Damon came outside handing me a brown big envelope "take as compensation he said, I glance "thank you I don't need it" I replied back " it not charity it to repair the damage I and my boss caused you" he added I wanted to walk out but he " please just collect it if not boss Adrian will be angry" he added. Those words softened my heart. I turned back and he handed me the envelope.
"Thank you" I said, staring at him. But he smiled and entered the car. And drove off. " I pray I never see them again" I thought inwardly
I saw my dad resting on his favorite rocking chair. His face beamed with smiles when he saw me.
He stood up and I hugged him." Where have you been Eva? " he asked me with a worried face, " with a friend" I had to lie because he might get upset if I say I was with a man I don't know
I cooked up a story and lied about the envelope in my hands that it was meant for someone else but I was the person to give it to her and he believed.
Nothing gives me joy more than my father's joy. He has sacrificed a lot to get me to where I am now. Even though things were very difficult and tough he still strived. Now that I am done with college and he is quite old I told him to rest while I hustle even though I haven't gotten a job yet and our rent was due.
The last time I went to beg my uncle, my mom's only brother for money, he said I must have sex with him first before he gives me a dime.
And never will I let that happen.
I managed to get a job at a bar, but I disobeyed the rules and drank their wine out of curiosity. Now I am fired. That was the same bar Adrian saved me from rapists.
I thought of going back to the bar to beg for my job back but I am already implicated with the video.
I opened the envelope and saw a huge bundle of dollars. I was awed. That money will be enough to sort out our bills and the rent, and I will be able to restock the house with groceries and other needs.
Adrian pov.
As I watched her all night as she slept so peacefully and lovely I was tempted to gently slide a strand of her hair behind her ear. Her hair was very silk and smelled nice. I gently caressed her beautiful face.
The last time I did this I was under a spell and it was with a witch but I had her imprisoned.
