Chapter 40: Invitation At Warren's House

HUMAN WORLD,

Suddenly the air became stiff between them. Ethan's grip subconsciously loosened from her chin as he stared deep through eyes before responded in a robotic tone,

" What??"

Athena parted her lips to speak up but Ethan's voice came out first,

" I understand.. You are afraid of being with me. Aren't you?"

He gave off a bitter laugh and continued looking like a weird person,

" Exactly, why would you stay with me after getting hurt by my enemies? Who am I after all.." 

The question resounded casual but the weight felt heavy to her as if it carried the weight of the whole universe.Athena became speechless for a few moments as she looked up and found him deep mystical eyes. His pale lips were smiling but there wasn't any brightness left in that smile.His ways were glittering a vacant glint that she couldn't explain.She suddenly felt a urge that Ethan was unwilling to leave her..

She looked down out of guilt and replied like a whisper, 

" You are thinking wrong about me. It's.. it's just.. I don't want to stay in connect with a fairy.."

Ethan frowned having doubt on her words and asked back quite distressed, 

" Why? Did I hurt you ever? No.. Then why are you trying to leave my side?"

Athena shook her head desperately and explained,

" We are different Master. Your clan known as the mighty holy creature whereas we are known as devil. All the creatures around the world think us devil and worship you.We can't help each others. "

Ethan protested firmly gazing at her puzzled face,

" I never cared about anyone's opinion and I won't. Moreover you have saved my life. I owe you. "

Athena waved her hands dismissively and said,

" No.. I don't want anything from you.. "

Ethan pulled her hand forcefully and said loudly on her puzzled face, 

" But I want to repay you. Why don't you understand?? "

Athena stared at his eyes contemplating in her own thoughts. She promised that she would never be the reason of anyone's danger again.

She had lost enough and can't bear to lose anymore! 

She closed her trembling eyes shut for a second and replying in a low voice, 

" We will talk about this tomorrow. We should return to our worlds first. It's getting late." 

After saying that, she got up from his side instantly and intended to go down without giving him a single glance. 

The sudden ignorance bothered him too much that he was on the verge of pulling her back but hold it due to his respect towards her. 

After taking few steps slowly, she heard him say, 

" Will you really come to meet me tomorrow? "

Suddenly her heart wrenched at his outburst question. Her mind was still in dilemma as thousand thoughts were circulating inside her head.Thus she didn't give him any reply nor did she dared to look back and went down directly leaving him all alone upstairs. 

Amidst the darkness, Ethan stared blankly at her retreating back and suddenly felt empty in his heart. 

VAMPIRE WORLD, 

After the humiliation given by her son in front of everyone, Queen Mother was furious over Esme. 

Inside Vanessa's Room, she roared to everyone to step out from the room. Thus the maids could obediently follow her order and headed outside leaving the two of them alone. 

On the contrary, Vanessa also stopped her earlier act and got up burning in rage. 

Queen Mother shouted out on her, 

" Look at that bitch. She has stolen Aaron completely. Aaron was never against my order but now in each decision, he is going firmly against me. Do something Vanessa or else we will loose everything."

Vanessa threw her a hateful glare and replied angrily,

" Isn't it your fault that we are going to loose everything? After all it was you who let the bitch come between us. "

Queen Mother stared back at her and replied gritting her teeth,

" Don't speak up when you don't know anything."

She sobered up her temper a little and continued frowning,

" I made a plan for you. Tomorrow Aaron has an invitation in the Warren's house. He must be planning to take Esme with him as his all friends will be there. I will let you accompany with them. You must seize the opportunity to show your status in front of everyone. Don't disappoint me."

Vanessa's eyes sparkled in excitement. She knew about Warren's house very well. There will be many prominent figures present in the gathering tomorrow. She must take this opportunity to show off her status and make Esme incomparable with her.

She was looking forward to see her humiliation. 

Thus her happiness was no bound as she nodded apprehensively. 

After seeing her enthusiasm attitude, Queen Mother felt relieved and headed out sinking in her thoughts that how would she convince Aaron to let Vanessa go with them tomorrow. 

When she passed by Athena's bedroom, she saw Athena's bodyguards looking frustrated while coming towards her bedroom.

Her arched eyebrows knitted together as she asked approaching near them, 

" Where did you go, guys? Didn't I warn you earlier not to leave Athena's door for a minute?" 

One of the guard pursued his lips to say something but the other guard squeezed his hand tightly signalling him to shut up his tone. 

Thus he quickly swallowed back his words and looked at the other guard confused written all over his face. 

The other guard responded respectively as if nothing happened, 

" Pardon Us, Queen Mother. We went down to fetch some blood. We have checked her before going down. She is resting inside her 

bedroom."

Queen Mother hummed coldly and walked toward her bedroom before giving them a suspicious glance. 

Lucky she didn't find anything unusual and the guards gave a heavy sigh of relief. 

NEXT MORNING,

A warm sun hung on the blue sky welcoming another new day over the MOONSHINE CASTLE. The birds chirping near the tree made Esme waking up from her beauty sleep.

She rubbed her drowsy eyes and looked outside in haze.She intended to freshen up herself as fast as possible as she had a visit outside.

But her beaming face disappeared quickly recalling the last order given by Aaron. Thus her mood became dull and felt no urge to freshen up herself.

She put on the slippers slowly and headed inside the washroom. After refreshing herself, the maids knocked on the door and she gave her the permission to walk in.

The maid entered and briefly explained,

" My Lady, Lord has summoned you to go over in his study room."

Esme frowned slightly contemplating on the fact that what made him call her early in the morning.

Forget it !!

She dismissed the maid and changed her clothes to go over there.

Inside the study,

Aaron was seated in the wooden chair dropping his eyes on the invitation letter in his hand. Jasper stood at a corner gazing at his lord attentively.

A few seconds later, Aaron coughed twice constantly along with a little breathing problem. Jasper panicked and anxiously inquired,

" Lord, are you feeling unwell?? Should I summon the healer?"

Aaron waved his hand and replied putting down the letter over the desk,

" I'm okay, Jasper. It was a mere cough only. I won't die so soon."

Jasper sighed and looked up at him helplessly.

He has becoming more and more careless about his health gradually!

Shortly after, they both heard a knock on the door as Aaron smiled plainly.

He quickly gave the order loudly,

" Come in.. "

The door was pushed open and Esme's beautiful face appeared in front of his anxious eyes.

Aaron waved at Jasper as he made his leave instantly before glancing at Esme blankly.

After his departure, Esme cleared her throat standing away from his desk and asked, 

" Did you call me?" 

Aaron smiled and leaned back at the chair leisurely waving at her, 

" Come over here." 

Esme hesitated but still walked towards him.He gently pulled her body and made her sit on his lap. 

Well, she was mentally prepared for it and didn't panick. Thus she blinked her eyes and waited for his answer.

His face brushed on her right shoulder as she heard him mumbling, 

" Mmm.. you smell so damn good.." 

Her heart skipped a bit as she urged him,

" Did you call me early in the morning to tell me this?"

Aaron lifted up his intoxicated eyes and replied with a smirk,

" Why? Can't I call you for no reason?"

Esme pouted and glared at his face angrily.

Aaron laughed and respond rubbing her arm gently,

" I won't tease you anymore. We have an invitation in the afternoon at my friend's home. You have to accompany me, wifey. "

His gaze wandered over her body as he added with a mischievous grin, 

" I will personally prepare you for the gathering today." 

Esme glanced at her own figure and retorted stammering, 

" What.. what do you mean by preparing on your own..!! "

Aaron smirked and asked back raising up his eyebrows,

" Is there any problem? I have the right to cover your beautiful figure or... even stripping it off."

Esme's mouth fell open in awe at his blatant words and Aaron laughed hard at her amused expression.

He asked whispering beside her ear,

" Which one you prefer? I won't mind doing one. "

Esme's face started burning up at the heat of him arousing underneath his clothes as she was seated on his lap.

She spit out angrily,

" I prefer none...!!"

Aaron chuckled, scooped her up in his bare arms and headed out saying,

" Let's go.. I will choose the dress for my wife today."
