CHAPTER 10
『✰𝑵𝑬𝑽𝑬𝑹!.✰』
Darcia was still working until it was last 2am, she closed her laptop and stood up. She wasn't feeling sleepy as usual cos she has insomnia, no one knows about it, not even Livia it Maverick. No one had any idea that she finds it very difficult to sleep
Darcia walked to her wardrobe and took out a black ripped shorts and black tank top, showing off her white flawless arms, a black heel boots to go with the outfit. She had received a message earlier
She went downstairs and was surprised to see Jevin standing at the foot of the stairs
"Do you even sleep?" Darcia asked
"I do" Jevin replied simply without any emotion in his voice
Darcia said nothing again as she walked past him
"I'll be stepping out for a bit" she said while Jevin walked behind her
"Do you need me to...."
"No" Darcia cut in sharply
"I need a motorcycle" She said and Jevin nodded taking her to the parking lot
There was a little rack beside the door where several keys were hung. Jevin took one of the keys and pressed a button, immediately a black bike beeped , it was parked farther from the others
They walked to the bike and Jevin looked at Darcia who nodded in approval after assessing the bike
"I'll take it" She said and Jevin handed the key to her
She took the helmet and asked for another, after receiving it she started the bike and drove out of the parking lot and out of the compound
Her light lighting up the dark street, Jevin sighed as she drove off, he yawned and walked inside
No doubt, he was exhausted. He walked upstairs but paused when he saw Livia walking out of her room
"You really don't sleep do you?" He asked with a sigh but he didn't receive any reply
He frowned when she walked like a headless zombie, she walked closer and that was when he figured she was asleep
"You sleep walk too?" He muttered with a mocking scoff
He grabbed her hand and pushed her room door open, he pulled her inside and made her sleep on the bed
"Mmm" she hummed softly and smiled in her sleep
Jevin shook his head and covered her with the duvet, he stood up and left the room, making sure to close the door tightly, then he went to his room.

Darcia drive through the lit streets until she got to a dark quiet path, she stopped the bike and turned
"Come on out" she said
There was alight ruffle in the bush before a figure walked out, Maverick dusted his head and wiped his black shirt
"Why does this place have to be the meeting point?" He asked with a frown on his face, Darcia threw the extra helmet to him and he caught it before wearing it
"You didn't want Livia to know if your presence" She said as Maverick mounted behind her on the bike, she started it
"Where are we going?" He asked when he noticed she was driving straight instead of turning back
"Somewhere, I'm thirsty" She replied and Maverick nodded as she drove faster
He knew what she meant by thirst, blood. She hasn't had any since she came so it was natural that she was thirsty
They stopped in front of a deserted looking place, with only a faint light above the door of a tiny old looking house
"Where is this place?" Maverick asked looking around, the place was so quiet
They both got down from the bike and Darcia parked it somewhere far
"A club" she responded
They walked to the door and Darcia knocked loudly, a peephole opened and a scary looking pair of eyes came to view
"Yes?" The voice was even scarier
Darcia brought out a ticket and passed it through the peephole
"Oh, Miss Ady, I'm very sorry for not recognizing you" the man said and immediately the door opened
"Good evening" The man said
Maverick frowned when he saw no one in front of him, Darcia tapped him and that was when he looked down
"F*ck!!!" Maverick exclaimed as he palmed his mouth, trying to suppress his laughter
The voice and the eyes were scary alright..... But this... This was literally a baby with deep voice and adult looking face, he was even standing on two stools,..... Two
This time Maverick couldn't hold his laughter anymore as he laughed out loud. Darcia bit her lips to stop herself from joining him
The man frowned as he had no idea what was making Maverick laugh
"Pardon my stupid friend" Darcia said and Maverick immediately stopped laughing
They went inside and saw two huge guards standing in front of another door, the guards opened the door and that was when Maverick heard the loud sound booming
The door were soundproofed making it impossible for people to know about the existence of such dark club
That's right. The club was for people from the other world, for vampires or even werewolves, most powerful dark men also come here
Darcia led Maverick from the loud place to the VIP lounge which was even quieter
"Gosh! How do people even walk in here without laughing their ass out" He asked as they took a seat
"Trust me, I try my best" Darcia replied smiling lightly
A server came and brought them two cups of blood wine, Darcia took the first and ordered for more
"Are you that thirsty?" Maverick asked
"I haven't had a single sip, though I can hold myself I'm still a vampire" She said
"And I came for another reason" she added and Maverick raised a brow but he didn't ask anything
Soon Darcia heard soft whimpers, at first she wanted to ignore but it kept getting louder
"It was a mistake, I swear I'm not supposed to be here"
At the sound of the voice Darcia's ears perked up, the voice was really familiar. With the snap of a head she turned and truly she saw Corrie sobbing and pleading as she was taken into a room by four huge men
She stood up but she spotted another set of people coming through the door, she turned to Maverick
"Please go to her and make sure she's safe, she's my secretary" She said and Maverick nodded before leaving
He teleported into the room causing the people inside to jolt in shock
"Who are you?" One of the men asked in a grunt
"Let her go" Maverick said instead
They all exchanged glances and laughed
"Who the heck is he?" Another asked
Maverick's eyes went to Corrie who was still sobbing in fear, unknown anger like an electric coursed through him
"F*ck you!!" He spat and have the first person a flying kick breaking his nose at the expense
The second person lost two teeth when Maverick punched him, the last two both had a broken arm and leg respectively
Before the four knew, they were already groaning on the ground. Maverick turned to Corrie who was looking at him in shock, he stared straight into her eyes and she fell into a deep slumber
He carried her in a bridal style and stood up, teleporting out if the place immediately.

Meanwhile, Darcia sat back down and took a sip of her drink with raised brows. As expected, shouts were heard as the door to the VIP lounge bursted open and several huge scary men bounced in, they all had huge guns in their hands
Screams filled the air when they cracked their guns and shot a bullet in the air
"Calm down y'all, we have no intentions of harming anyone, carry on your partying" the one that looked like their leader said
They walked to a door and matched it open, they went in and gunshots reigned for the next twenty seconds and screams came after. The party was immediately disrupted as everyone ran Helter skelter for the safety of their lives
Only Darcia was calm as she kept drinking her wine quietly. Only after everyone ran out did she stand from her seat, she took out her phone and saw the message Maverick sent
*I took her out, be safe.*
She put the phone back into her pocket and walked to the door the people had just invaded with her wine still in her elegant hand, she walked into the room and smirked when she saw everyone else dead apart a man who was shivering
Immediately the man caught sight of her, he frowned as he found her unrecognizable, after all she had masked her face before walked into the room, only her dangerous eyes were visible
"Wh... Who are you?" the man stuttered and Darcia raised her brows amused
He could still ask such questions at such time?
"Your worst nightmare" She replied and the man immediately got the goosebumps
What did she mean?
"You stole shares of money from my father's account and ran away, to where exactly?" Darcia asked with a scoff
"You think you can run away? So pathetic"
The man immediately went on his knees as he now recognizes who she might be
"I'm sorry ... I'm really sorry" he pleaded
"It wasn't just you right?" Darcia asked and he nodded immediately
"We were three" He replied
"Three fools, you can always run but you can never hide, especially from me ....NEVER".
