POV- EVANGELINE HOPES
---------------------------------
After a week, just a normal day at my home.
"What the hell happened to your face?"
"Oh my god! How did your hands get cut?"
Zeraf began scolding me. I don't remember anything about how I got hurt. All I remember is seeing a smiling, freaky figure in the mirror. I look at Zeraf; he is muttering with full anger. Those lonely days of mine are not bad after all. Zeraf always checks on me. I am not good at cooking, so he is the one who cooks for me. He advised me to stay with him, but I refused.
"When will you go back to your work?"
"Tomorrow."
"It's good you will be back at work. Don't stay here alone."
"What are you, my boyfriend or something?" I teased him.
"If you agree, I will," he replied mischievously.
Omg... My heart skipped a beat.
While I am ready to reply to him, we were interrupted by the doorbell.
"Damn..." I cursed. I took a peek at Zeraf; he was focused on cooking. I furiously attended the door. When I saw the person in front of me, my eyes widened.
Hello, black witch... He smirked at me.
What??? Odin? Why are you here?
Am I not invited here? He passed and entered my house like it's his.
"Excuse me, why are you here?" I asked him furiously.
"Because I missed you, black witch," he told me in a flirty tone.
What the hell, I thought.
Cling... I heard something break inside the kitchen.
"Oh, is anyone here?" Odin asked me.
I ignored him and entered my kitchen. It's like one plate is broken. Zeraf is trying to clean it.
"Wait, I will do that," I told him. He looked at me in a furious way, as if I did something he didn't like.
But soon Zeraf gave me a creepy smile.
"You stay in here, I will greet our guest," he walked away.
I have a bad feeling about this. I cleaned those broken pieces there, then rushed towards the hall.
I feel a heavy atmosphere there. Both of them glare at each other in a deathly manner. "What the hell is going on between them?" I thought. Then I decided to intervene.
"Odin, why did you come here?" I asked.
My boss told me to check on you, and your clients want to meet you. Tiara and I handle their cases, so you better come back and treat us to a meal," Odin teased me.
"Wow, it's the first time Odin's talking to me like this. Usually, we would have ego clashes and fights. But this shows that Odin cares for me. I am not an idiot who doesn't understand Odin's intention."
"Oh, thank you, Raven. I know I can count on you," I smirked at him. Odin tried to hide his embarrassed face.
"Ahem... Zeraf interfered by clearing his throat."
"Oh, shoot, I almost forgot Zeraf's presence. I feel chills near me."
Very well, thank you for your information, Mr. Smith. You can leave peacefully here. Leave everything to us. Ange will meet you tomorrow. Zeraf suddenly became hostile towards him. I can tell how fake his smile was. It's too ugly. Even I am scared of his smiling face. I peeked at Odin. It's like he was disgusted or something.
"Oh my Ange, I have decided to have dinner with you. Tomorrow's dinner is your treat," Odin said as he came near to me. His sudden presence and calling Ange shocked me. I gave him an unbelievable look.
"See you later, Ange," Odin winked at me and left.
In a daze, I felt something glaring at me. I gulped and turned around. It was like Zeraf was raging, but I will say he is hot. I held back my laughter and pretended nothing happened. Then soon, Zeraf and I were having dinner.
I turned on the television, then changed from romantic movies to a news channel. It was about politics and economic problems in the country. Then, after some advertisements, a breaking news appeared.
Breaking news of today:
Lahore was in terror due to 6 murders. Six prominent personalities were found dead in their apartment at the same time. They were all found dead, appearing to be suicides. Their bodies had begun to decay. The police department declared an emergency situation and increased patrolling in the city. The police have started their investigation.
Zeraf suddenly turned off the television. I was shaking for no reason. I could feel the darkness inside of me. I heard someone's laughter. At the same time, I felt the urge to puke. I ran towards the washroom and vomited.
After cleaning up, I looked at my reflection. Yes, I am smiling again... That weird smile of satisfaction appeared again.
