CHAPTER 20

I stayed up with Blanca till darkness cover the sky, we talked about our plan to go back to our ship since it's been almost a month since my injury and am almost completely healed now so we need to return back to our ship and look for another treasure to hunt or perhaps track down the monster that nearly killed me.

When will Nadia return, she's been gone for a week now right? Asked Blanca and before I could reply her we heard a loud cry coming from the room upstairs and so both of us rushed up to check on Rosaria.

When we got in, I found her crying and screaming No! So terrified and shaken to the bones. What's wrong Rosaria asked Blanca to her and the first thing she said is the thing I have been dreading since morning and thankful to the goddess that she has not said yet.

Bad dream she replied and as a vampire I tried to read her mind and for the first time in my life, I couldn't read another creatures mind. It was as though I met with an invisible barrier that kept me out of her mind. I was supprised but I kept quiet and kept observing. I need to get going she said looking at Rosaria. Something bad is gonna happen.

I was in full rage when I heard those words again, I thought we have already moved pass this stage. Say that one more time and I will tie you up again I said. Though I didn't mean to be rude but I have had just enough of her wanting to leave me.

What do you even want from me, you don't know me, you just met me yesterday and today I belong to you? You need a property check dude cause I don't remember ever Being a property of yours.

The darkness in me was shouting MINE! MINE, they were trying to over power me, drag her back to your room and tie her up the voice in my sang it like a melody in my head.

"You are going no where Rosaria, like it or not" and for the next moment we kept aiming at each other's neck till Blanca butt in.

Can you two stop fighting at every little chance you get? Said balance. And you, why do you want to leave what did you see in these bad dream of yours.

I can't explain it, all I know is that I have to leave here, or something bad will happen.

I couldn't stand listening to her rants of leaving me, all I know is that she wants to leave because of some stupid nightmare and that is delusional to me.

Get her to my room Blanca, she will be spending the night with me again, I don't think she likes being with you. I said determined.

you don't own me Oliver, get your baby acts together" right Blanca? She said looking straight into my eye but referring to Blanca.

I turned and looked at Blanca and she understood the message I was sending her with my look and besides Blanca also want her to stay so she denied her request.

She was surprised and heart broken at it but for some reason she went along with me promising Blanca that she will train hard and kick my butt one-day.

I don't mind, as long as she stayed it's ok by me. So I followed behind her. As she walked her butt kept seducing me coupled with my anger, I had so many mixed feelings and crazy thought running in my mind so immediately we were inside I pinned her to the wall and let my darkness face her for once.

How dare you try to leave me Rosaria. I heard myself ask her since I wasn't in full control of myself.

We went on with our bantering if words till should could no longer cope with it and tried to use her powers to get out. But I am not a weak and pathetic vampire so we proceeded to fight each other.

After we fought for a while with her sending her thorns and me cutting them, she was now in the air and moving towards the opening in the wall which created, I wanted to stop her but those god damn thorns didn't let me and so she was out of the room high up in the air.

The next thing I saw was a ball of fire directed to her. I have never been so scared in my entire existence. I saw my whole world flashed right in front of my eyes and my heart broke into million pieces. But she is no longer that weak girl I drag from the forest, she has learnt to protect her self and am so thankful to Blanca for it. She used the thorns to form a shield. It protected her from the flames but the impact of the blow throw her off guard and like an angel she fell from the sky. Screaming her name, I accelerated on my full vampire speed and cought her before she reached the ground and in the process I dislocated my shoulder.

I didn't care about my dislocated shoulder, I have had worst so I was more worried and concerned about her. She checked herself for a split second and confirmed that she is good so my racing heart just calmed down for the love of goddess. I don't want to even think of what would have happened to her if she had reached the ground falling from such height.

What are those I asked her as I have never come across such monstrous creatures. Those are what I was trying to get away from she replied but the creature spotted us and they all came at us in full speed.

Thanks for my ability to control another element of nature, I called on the wind to blow this godforsaken creatures away and I was glad when Blanca joined the fight.

They all scattered in all directions and I couldn't push them with the wind again. I was shocked when these monster started sending out balls of fires upon fires down the innocent people and houses living in the town. It was chaotic within a few hours and I wished there was much I could do but I can't live her unprotected. So I stayed beside her to keep this damns things away.

As I was so engrossed in battle with one of the creatures, she ran away all of a sudden.

Great, just go ahead and be stubborn Rosaria, I am trying to fend this things off, the least you can do is let me protect you from dieing but no, what did you do? Run off, trying to take advantage of the situation and leave me again!!!

I was so angry at her but when I turned around I noticed the real reason she ran. She was trying to save a little from being roasted but she wasn't fast enough as the damage was done before she got there.

Some how I feel relaxed that she didn't get there, I mean when she save the little girl, who will save her.
