Laura took money from a man and tried to give Clara to him for his pleasure against Clara's will. Ragnor arrived at the scene and took Clara away. While Laura was standing outside wondering who Ragnor was, a mysterious lady got down from a car which almost hit Laura on its arrival.
"Who is the woman in the car that just drove off?" asked Princess Siku, her gaze fixated on the golden ring on her middle finger on the left hand.
Laura turned to look behind her and around, realizing she was standing outside alone with the strange woman, pointed to herself and asked
"Are you talking to me?" Laura asked a bit terrified.
"Do you see any other puppy around?" Princess Siku asked, fixing her gaze on Laura.
She looked at Laura for a while and smiled
"Huh! are you calling me a puppy?" Laura laughed mockingly
"I know you didn't part those pretty lips of yours to call me a puppy. Anyway, you sure do have a pretty lip. What lipstick do you use?" Laura asked with curiosity.
The lady took two steps and was now in front of Laura
"Chanel, I use Chanel. What do you say, you and I go inside one of your private rooms and have a little chat?" Princess Siku said and stretched her hand with her palm open towards the direction of her chauffeur.
He immediately put a 5000 dollar bundle in her hands " Does this pay the fee for your private room" She said showing the money to her
"Gee, Lord, this Clara sure has some luck around her. First, she attracted a strange man who gave me 100,000 dollars in one night, and now she is here, offering me how much now?" She thought and squinted her eye trying to figure out the amount in her hand
"It's 5000 dollars and you can have much more, provided you are good to me," Princess Siku informed her
"O la la, fiiiiiiivvvvvvvvve thooooousaaaaand dollars" Laura screamed in her head and did a back flip in her mind twice
"Sure ma'am this way leads to one of my private rooms" Laura announced with lots of excitement.
She led the lady into the club and into one of the private rooms. The club was busy, but Princess Siku got some people staring at her due to her extremely expensive appearance
"Are those real diamonds?" someone asked from the dancing crowd.
Soon Princess Siku and Laura were alone in one of Laura's private rooms. The chauffeur stood at the entrance of the door to the private room with arms crossed over his chest. The two ladies sat opposite each other on the semi-circle sofa.
"Now tell me, who is that girl in the limo?" Princess Siku asked the same question again with no expression on her face
"Oh, that is Clara Hughs, she is an orphan. She lost her parents in some murder issue, I don't know all the details, but she has been living under my care" Laura said smiling like she had done something that deserves an Oscar award.
Seeing that the lady she was with was neither smiling nor reacting to what she said, she cleared her throat and continued
"I found her when she was 16 years, that was 3 years ago. She was trying to steal from me. Since I have been taking care of her. That is all about her." She smiled and curiously asked "What did you say your name was again? I am Laura by the way"
"Princess" she responded avoiding giving Laura, her other name which may raise questions
"How long has she been with the guy who picked her up?" Princess Siku asked
"A couple of weeks, I guess. I didn't keep a tab on those two" Laura replied
Princess Siku took another bundle of five thousand dollars from her bag and added it to the one on the table and got up to leave. Laura was just looking at the money on the table paying no attention to the woman walking out of her private room.
The chauffeur followed Princess Siku out of the club, he opened the car door for her before going to sit at the driver's side.
"Where should we go to, my princess?" asked the chauffeur
"Let's go see my love" Princess Siku replied.
She opened a compartment in the car and brought out a bottle, poured its contents into a glass and drank it. She closed her eyes and lay back in the seat after putting the bottle and glass away.
Meanwhile, Ragnor has already arrived at his mansion and has taken Clara to her room. Clara was lying in bed with Ragnor sitting on the bed beside her. She had stopped crying, but she still had a sad look on. Ragnor's heart ached more seeing her sadness. He wanted her to smile but was not sure how to get her to smile.
"Are you okay now?" he asked in a gentle voice.
Clara nodded yes but still with a sad face
"It's late but do you want to go sit on the swing? and watch the fish in the sea?" he asked
Clara smiled and nodded like a little girl. He offered her his hand, and she took it and they both went out of the mansion to the garden behind the mansion. Clara sat on the swing and Ragnor gave her some push.
After a while they went down to the underground room, to watch the fish in the ocean. Ragnor placed a call to the mansion and ordered one of the housemaids to bring them some snacks. The snacks were brought a few minutes after and Ragnor fed them to Clara.
Clara tried to feed him too, he couldn't say no to her, looking at the smiles and genuine joy in her eyes. He ate little and fed Clara the rest. Ragnor sat on the sofa facing the glass and Clara decided to join him happily after watching the fishes standing in front of the glass.
Ragnor wrapped her in his arms and they both lay down on the sofa. He kissed the back of her head making her smile. He was happy because she was. They were in there for about an hour, and she fell asleep.
He carried her in his arms and watched her smiling peaceful sleeping face. His heart felt warm, and he smiled. He looked at her lips which were slightly parted. He wanted to kiss her. Every part of him wanted to kiss her on the lips. He has never known what love is let alone how to care for someone, yet this girl makes him feel different. She arouses an unexplainable feeling in him. He yielded to his temptation, lowered his head, and planted a gentle kiss on her lips.
At that same time, Princess Siku's car drove into his compound. In the car, her eyes opened immediately, and she sat up looking in the direction of the mansion garden.
"Stop the car" She yelled at the chauffeur
As soon as the chauffeur stopped the car, she didn't wait for him to open the door for her. She opened the door herself, got out of the car, and walked hurriedly in a 5-inch heel towards the garden.
Ragnor lifted his head up with a smile. He wanted to deeply kiss her, not just plant a kiss on her lips but he also didn't want to wake her. He was smiling when he felt a bit uneasy. He placed Clara gently on the sofa and went to check the CCTV and saw Princess Siku. He frowned.
"What is she doing here?" He thought to himself.
He went to pick Clara up, careful enough not to wake her and used a different channel back to the mansion. He took Clara to her room and laid her on the bed. Ensuring she was comfortable she activated the soundproof and a layer of the wall moved to cover the entire wall with a different shade of colour.
He locked the door on his way out and went down to the living room and fixed his gaze on the front door. Meanwhile, Princess Siku stopped in her tracks realizing Ragnor had left the underground building and was now in the mansion. She moved at lightning speed back to the mansion. She opened the door and came face to face with Ragnor who was standing in the living room with an angry expression on his face and a bloodshot eye.
"What do you want Siku," He asked angrily
"Is that why you left home? Left me? Is it because of her?" Princess Siku yelled
"You know why I left. I hate to be forced into things. This is why I left. She, I meet by chance" Ragnor retorted
Princess Siku laughed "Why haven't you killed her yet?" she asked with a serious face
"Because I don't intend to" He replied his eyes returning to emerald green with the thought of Clara
Princess Siku furrowed her brow staring at the change in Ragnor's expression with the talk of Clara
"Are you in love with her?" Princess Siku questioned
Ragnor was silent, he could not answer but rather, he started thinking.
"He could not understand why he always wanted to see Clara. He feels some calmness around him anytime she is around. He can't explain his feeling toward her. Is that what they call love?"
He was deep in his thought when Princess Siku's voice brought him back to reality
" I am your betrothed Ragnor." She said and waved off the ring on her finger
"Your parents sent me to bring you back home. I got here and what did I see, you with a human girl?" She spat out angrily
Ragnor laughed hysterically
"Betrothed? to whom? me? This is the best joke I have ever heard in my entire existence." He said his next words, extremely angry "It takes two to be in a relationship. Now get out of my house before I throw you out myself"
Princess Siku had no option but to obey him. She can't disobey her husband-to-be. So, she left the mansion. Ragnor was still angry when he left for Clara's room. He unlocked the door and deactivated the soundproof wall.
The room returned to normal. His anger subsided watching Clara hugging a pillow in her sleep. He smiled and climbed into bed with her and pulled her into his embrace, cuddling her. Clara unconsciously hugs his arms. Like that, he drifted off to sleep too.
Princess Siku had come to the City of San Francisco to look for Ragnor as he is her will-be husband. To her disappointment, not only did she find him with another woman, a human, but she was driven out of the mansion.She was driven out because of a human girl, a nobody. She, Princess Siku, is of royal blood and the next queen, yet Ragnor drove her out because of a human girl. Princess Siku was unhappy about this turn of events and could only do one thing, report the incident to the King, Ragnor's father. Princess Siku made a decision to tell Rganor's father, the reigning King everything on her way back home.Somewhere in the thick forest outside human civilization, lies Ufalme wa Kutokufa, meaning the Kingdom of Immortal. Many humans who have ventured to enter this Kingdom did not leave to tell the story. There have been scary stories about what is in the middle of the thick forest but no one has dared to confirm the stories. Princess Siku arrived at the breathtaking city, their te
The palace guard has come all the way to San Francisco to deliver the King's message. A summon for Ragnor to appear in the palace. The guard had addressed Ragnor as the prince when he sorted permission to leave. Clara was coming into the living room, so she heard Ragnor being addressed as a prince. "Prince, Ragnor, you are a Prince?" she asked softly descending the stairs.Ragnor, ignoring her question, turned his attention from Clara to the butler who had just walked in with one of the servants trailing behind him."Was someone not supposed to get a servant to help my princess out?" He said with an indifferent expression"Apologies master, it won't happen again," he said and bowed his head respectfully and exited the living room with the servant. Clara walked towards Ragnor, stopping in front of him. Raising her head to look him in the eye she asked"Why don't you want to answer me directly? Who was that man, that left, just now, he is not dressed for a movie is he?"Ragnor closed
Ragnor was summoned to the palace after Princess Siku reported his affair with a human girl to the King. Ragnor had to leave Clara alone in the mansion to see his parents, something he wished he didn't have to do because he couldn't bear to be away from Clara. To ensure Clara did not feel lonely in his absence he instructed his servant to bring over her best friend Jessica to keep her company. Ragnor did not trust Clara would be safe alone, now that Princess Siku was aware of her existence, so he assigned a chauffeur to watch over her. Ragnor had arrived at the palace and was welcomed by his mum. He was unhappy to see Princess Siku and he didn't hide it "Don't you have a home?" He asked with traces of anger in his voice "I do. I just came over to welcome you as a good fiancée will do when your mum informed me you were coming today" She replied with a smile "Is that a crime?" She added Ragnor rolled his eyes and walked past her into the main hall. His mother was walking right next
Ragnor had gone to see his parents upon invitation. Jessica was brought over to Ragnor's mansion to keep Clara company. Upon arrival and seeing the luxury, she decided in her heart, she will take Ragnor away from Clara. Everyone retired to their rooms, with Ragnor and Clara missing each other. It's just been a day since Ragnor left for the palace and Clara was already missing him so much that she couldn't sleep. She decided to watch Tv to while away the time. She went to the living room and sat on the sofa with her legs folded under her.Jessica was still in bed fast asleep. She had not had such comfort in a lifetime. She had one leg on her pillow, her hair spread across the bed and her face, her right hand was hanging by the side of the bed and her head almost at the foot of the bed. The cloth was just covering a part of her body leaving other parts exposed.Clara watched the TV for a while and wish she could call Ragnor, but she didn't have his contact. Ragnor was equally awake. He
Jessica hatches a plan against Clara to get her out of the way so she can pursue Ragnor. For her plan to succeed, she distracted the chauffeur, Jake by seducing him. Ragnor returned to San Francisco after being away for just two days to save Clara who is now bonded to him and hence could feel her pain miles away. He found Clara and brought her back to his mansion where he tended to her.Jessica was clueless about the real identity of Jack, the chauffeur. The butler had assigned Jack, a vampire, because of their unique ability to hear others' thoughts and sense danger, to keep them safe as instructed by Ragnor. Ragnor had lots of servants in the house, however, the heads of these servants are all vampires like himself. The butler, Jack, the head of the chauffeur and Ragnor himself. However, Jack was not happy with his assigned task of taking care of a human girl and hence did not pay much attention to anything. To him, Clara was just like any other human girl Ragnor had brought home
"Sorry master, I didn't know" he replied shaking with fear"You didn't know or you didn't care?" Ragnor said through gritted teeth "Where is Jessica?" he questioned "You," pointing to the butler "Go and have someone prepare some soup for Clara" The butler bowed and left the study. Ragnor's gaze returned to Jack who was shaking like a leaf."Dead," Jack announced "You killed her?" "No, not really" Jack replied feeling guilty. He narrated the whole incident to Ragnor. What both of them did not know was it was Jessica's plan. Ragnor's eyes turn bloodshot, and his fangs and nails grew longer. His wings appeared, and he stabbed Jack's chest with his wings and pinned him to the wall. His feet suspending from the ground."This is your punishment for almost causing the death of my love. This job was assigned to you so you can ensure her safety but no, you cared more about your pride than your job" Ragnor said looking at Jack who has equally transformed into a vampire as a defensive m
Ragnor now informed Clara about Jessica and assured her she is doing very well and will be back at the mansion the next day. Even though Ragnor had informed Clara, that her friend was doing very well and will be back the next day she could not stay calm. She wanted to see her only best friend. Right after breakfast, Ragnor and Clara went to the hospital in the Porsche driven by Ragnor. They both spoke to the nurse who directed them to the ward where Jessica has been transferred to. They meet the servant on the way there and she leads them to Jessica.Clara runs quickly to Jessica's side with laughter amidst tears "How dare you do this to me" she chides. "For once I thought I lost you," Clara said half smiling and crying Jessica lifted her hand to touch Clara's face who was sitting next to her on the bed "Who said I was going anywhere. I just slipped and fell. That is all. I am fine and feel better. It is not easy to get rid of me," she said with a smile"What happened Jessica, y
Ragnor smiled, lowered his head and covered her lips with his. He kissed her more passionately than he had ever kissed her. In his kiss, he did express how he felt about her. Clara felt weak at her knees she leaned on Ragnor as both were still lost in the passion of their kiss.They both left the park and went to a nearby restaurant before heading home. It was past 7 pm, and Ragnor was feeling a little weak. Staying around Clara for the past forty-eight hours, he had not had time to feed himself. He could not use his powers on Clara anymore because his heart accepted her. He can't make her fall into a deep sleep as he did to her the first time he brought her to the mansion and subsequent times. His attention was divided while driving as he was thinking of how to leave the mansion late without Clara noticing and also paying attention to the road. He appeared to be normal behind the wheel"Is everything alright, you look troubled?" Clara asked worriedly "O shit, now she can read me too
