The drizzling rain bathed the night in a soft water color glow. The house on the hill looked like it was covered in fog when it rained.
The atmosphere in the house was warm, happiness evident in the air.
Lucian was sprawled on the sofa reading a magazine, an unusual bright smile plastered on his lips, one could tell he was exceptionally happy.
"The soup is ready",Mia walked in decked in a black pyjamas carrying the cup and saucer which was filled with the piping hot hangover soup in the tray.
Lucian closed the magazine placing it on the occasional table beside him,the stared at her as if he was trying to see through her soul.
"You must be aware that since you've agreed to this there's no turning back",he stated.
"I know",she replied placing the tray on the table.
"Besides I have a possessive personality, I don't share my things nor my people they're exclusively mine . ."
"I know",she interrupted him midsentence.
He chuckled merrily,his voice resonated through the room making the atmosphere more warm and jovial.
"I'm not done yet, since you've agreed to be mine you must forget any related things about him, I don't tolerate . ."
"Disloyal people",she completed,her lips curling into a smile. "Rest assured,my legs aren't that long to hop on two boats at the same time".
"Sure shortie",he laughed as he pulled her into his laps.
"And is that supposed to be a compliment", she mused smiling.
Although she was filled with uncertainty and anxiety about their future together she was eager to give it a shot only wishing for peace and happiness.
"I'll have the officials from the civil bureau come over tomorrow you should get a good night sleep, I'll be in the study",he said and she noded.
The peaceful and warm atmosphere in the house was of a dark constract to the club.
Royal Vault Club
The pulsating beats of the loud music reverberate through the crowded club, strobe light painted the room with vibrant colors illuminating on the seas of bodies dancing energetically, several VIP booths scattered across the room occupied by several groups of people.
In a particular booth
Emily sprawled on the leather upholstery covered with soft suede elegantly sipping on the scotch.
"They're together, that's good",she whispered to herself despondently more like a consolation twirling the champagne flute in her hands.
One look at her you could tell she was inebriated.
She kept repeating the same words as if she had lost her mind, her unfocused eyes darting at every corners blearily.
Then from the corner of her eyes, she saw a blonde haired guy exiting a booth carrying a suitcase donning an immaculate suit, scrambling to her feets she gave a hot chase.
"Lucian, Lucian, over here!",she yelled running after him.
"Lucian, I've finally caught up with you",she mumbled unhappily pouting her lips as she embraced him from behind.
"Scram !",the blonde haired guy halted and hissed.
"No Lucian, I can't pretend I'm okay any longer ,I can't hide my feelings again I'm tired of doing this all the time, I ask for nothing much just your love", Emily cried grabbing a fistful of his suit.
Levii turned around surprised to see the frail looking lady clutching his suit like her life depended on it, he had initially thought it was a random loose woman but upon seeing how distressed the lady looked, his heart ached for her.
Judging from her slurred speech and flushed cheeks, he could tell she was completely wasted and had probably mistaken him for someone else.
"Excuse me Miss, you've got the wrong person",he gently pried her hands off him.
She staggered to regain her balance. "Is it wrong that I love you and only want to be with you?".
"In which aspect am I lacking compared to her, I am in every way better than her and only I can stand side by side with you proudly".
She cried as she slid helplessly onto the cold floor, watching as his figure move further away from her.
Levii started his car ready to drive away but he noticed the lady holding onto him earlier staggering into the drizzling rain.
Seeing as she stumbled and fell onto the pool of water, he sighed and stopped the car then walked towards her filled with pity.
"Lucian, I know you'll never abandon me", Emily giggled holding him tightly as he carried her towards the car.
