He sounded so calm and casual as if he was used to say this kind of sweet words.His long slender fingers still played with her messy hairs playfully with an attentive gaze.

Esme watched his stern face for a few times before broke out into a hoarse and anger mixed voice,

” But I want nothing from you except my freedom. You have status, assets probably more than everyone in your world. You can just give a command and thousand of beauties will be sent at your feet, king Aaron. But just let me go and live my life.”

Aaron paused at his action before taking back his hand reluctantly and suddenly got up . His action gave her a bit frightened as she bit her lower lip tightly and lowered her gaze.

He thought for a while. Then suddenly his mind came up with an idea and turned back to face her timid face speaking slowly,

” Fine!”

Next second, Esme jolted in astonishment and lifted up her gaze excitedly.

But the next moment, she was rendered speechless as Aaron continued,

” From tomorrow, you can roam around my world and go wherever you wish along with my guards. No one will stop you except my order.You can visit around the city and have fun everyday. But you must come back to the castle before evening.”

Esme badly wanted to roll her eyes but stopped at the thought of positive sides of this order.

If she can go around, she will definitely find a way to leave this world or perhaps she can send a letter to her second brother.

Watching her in daze, Aaron spoke raising his sword shaped eyebrows,

” Aren’t you happy about my order?”

Esme came back to her sense before looking up and met his emotionless eyes,

” Yes, yes.I..I’m happy.”

She went back to her thoughts and thought that it was best to not anger his mood again.

A cold voice again echoed in her ear,

” Sleep.”

Esme was stunned, ” huuuh?”

She blinked in confusion and stared at his eyes.

Don’t tell me now that she has to compensate herself with her body because of those so called freedom that he had given?

Aaron gave a light chuckle before slowly approaching towards her. Esme sat in alert and immediately leaned back muttering with her widened eyes,

” What… what are.. you…doing?”

With a faint smile, Aaron hold her shoulders and pressed her down on the bed forcefully.Then he tugged the blanket over her limp body before speaking softly,

” Sleep.. I have some urgent matters to handle.Good night.”

Before she could say anything, he gave her a light peck on her forehead and vanished from there in a second.

Esme laid down on the bed perplexed watching at the door.

Day by day, it was getting difficult to understand Aaron!

After teasing the little girl for a while, Aaron was passing through the corridor towards his study with a pleasant mood. Halfway, suddenly his pupils shrunk and with a strong force, he banged inside a certain room trembling the whole castle.

Even the guards quickly followed him inside the room.

HUMAN WORLD,

CRYSTAL CITY,

after walking for a few minutes with this stranger, Athena finally reached with Ethan in a quite place away from the city. It was in front of a half darkened lake side with above millions star glittering from the luminous sky.

As soon as they arrived, she could no longer wait for his permission and started ripping her blood packs hastily.

When it pried open a little, she stuff into her mouth like a juice pack and started gulping down while Ethan watched her disdainfully.

It took only one minute to finish the pack and was proceeding towards the next pack.

Ethan finally spoke with some disdain in his eyes,

” Hold on, nobody is going snatch your blood. Why are you in rush?”

With the blood stains on her lips, Athena glared at him before spouting angrily,

” What is your problem if I am in rush?”

Ethan shrugged, ” Whatever…”

It was no gain to teach an animal how to behave !

After finishing two packs, Athena wiped her lips with her palm satisfied and concentrated on speaking first.

Her anger subsidised a lot after questing her thirst and asked,

” Umm… why do you roam here in human world?”

Ethan sighed softly and looked away falling his gaze on those dim lights of the city.

He was really exhausted after searching for Esme all the while. Even the police didn’t find any clue of her after she entered the bar that night. The bar was highly restricted and there wasn’t any cctv footage left on the day of her disappearing.

It was like she was vanished in the air.

Turning away his face, he saw her questioned gaze and somehow wanted to share his problem with her even though she was terrible.

He replied shifting away his gaze from her,

” My sister has gone missing. I have been searching for her.”

Athena was shocked for a minute before asking another question,

” Wait.. you said, you’re some holly creature.

Then what is your sister doing here in human world?

Aahh..I’m not getting you guys..”

Ethan shot her a hateful look and added,

” Forget it, if you don’t want to hear..”
