UNTIL I HAVE YOU IN ME AND KNOW ITS FOREVER

Since Nicholas was not yet in the room, they chit chat outside till he returned. The great demon was back to his normal imposing aura which was felt again, and Sarah shifted backwards to text Phantasy.

Phantasy heard the ding from her phone and quickly silence the device.

Saraphine was the first to rush over, small arms wrapping around his waist. "Oh Nicholas, how much I missed you. Are you feeling well now?"

Nicholas removed the clingy girl off him and spoke seriously. "Do not rush at me like that again."

Fearless, Saraphine asked instead, with a smirk. "Why? Because you only belong to a certain someone?"

He walked into the room ignoring the rest and replied the girl. "I belong to no one." When he entered the room, a pleasant smell drifted to his nostrils and he could hear the fast lub-dub of a heart coming from the closet. Now that Nicholas had a grasp of what was happening to him through the dream, he wasn't that surprised he could now pick on heart beats. The smell got stronger and he felt his jaw twisting, begging to break free. His teeth ached and he clenched his fists.

Rather than walking to the closet, he went to bed instead, Saraphine tagging along. Her small hands adjusted the blanket for him and she whispered. "Have you seen the love of your life?" She saw the small frown on the mans face and moved closer, hopping herself on a stool. "I told Phantasy to come here first. You havent seen her?"

Nicholas smiled at her and let his eyes trail to the closet. Saraphine saw the direction and smiled as well.

Few minutes after, Annabelle arrived. After exchanging pleasantries with Mrs Fretakis and Mrs Gregor, she skimmed across the room for a particular blue girl. She felt slightly relieved when she didnt see her. Has she been told off by Nicholas?

Or Mrs Fretakis?

"Nicholas....?"

The evil man did not let her get anywhere with her statement before cutting her off. "Do we have to go through this again, Miss Peters?"

Annabelle had never felt embarrassed by his words before, but with another family around and the bestie of the blue girl who she was sure would later gossip to the other friend, her eyes turned slightly faint.

But she wore a smile instead, briefly looking at the blondie kid that was toying with her phone. Did she not know how to excuse?

"Mr Fretakis...how are you feeling?"

"Better thank you."

Saraphine poured him a glass of water and placed it to his lips. "Nicholas...drink some water. Your voice sounds a 100 years old."

Everyone:"...." Saraphine go easy on the patient.

Nicholas smiled and sipped a little water before saying. "I am over a hundred years old."

Phantasy who was beginning to sweat in the closet, twitches her lip and squeezed her nose. As if Nicholas knew what she just did she heard his voice saying. "If you squeeze your nose too much. It might really stop growing."

Phanstay gripped her phone and covered her mouth. How did he know she was in here?

Annabelle thought he was referring to her and touched her nose.

"Not you. Thank you for your concern."

She made a nod with her head and made small talks with Mrs Fretakis who had been throwing a glare to her uncaring son. She really felt sorry for the one whom will end up with him.

Since Nicholas woke from the long sleep, he knew his senses had heightened more. It was different to that of a normal human, so although, they whispered amongst themselves, it felt like noise to his ears.

Even the soft clicks of Saraphines phone was irritating.

"Get out!"

Everyone looked in his direction. Nicholas Fretakis raised a threatening brow. "To repeat?"

Mrs Fretakis urged them to move out but Saraphine remains seated. He turned to the Kid. "You too."

Saraphine did bother to say a word and hesitantly walked out. "Grumpy old man."

Once they left, he let down the blind fold so they woudlnt see him through the glass and the man walked over to the closet, threw the doors open and saw a sweaty and panting Phantasy.

She fanned herself as she spoke. "They really need to increase this thing. It's too small. So suffocating."

Nicholas didnt let her leave and shielded her with his body, a wicked smirk on his gorgeous face. "Need I to call security?"

Phantasy raised her head to look at him. "Move away."

"Little girl, did you not come here to see me? Worried your penis source would die?"

She glared at the vulgar man and playfully pushed him off. Being this close to her, the sweet smell of her was more tempting and he was sure it wasnt her shampoo or spray. It was like a scent that belonged to her and her alone. He ignored the reflex moving of his jaws and teased the girl.

"Why? Too vulgar? Someone urged me to go on two years ago." he enjoyed her expressions to his words and he licked his lips.

"Until when will you use two years ago as an excuse for everything?"

He rubbed her brows and replied cunningly. "Until I have you in me and know its forever."

Her heart skipped and he noticed it. Perhaps becaue she was excited, he could hear her pulse and it almost felt as if he could hear the blood rushing through her veins. He swallowed hard and clenched his jaws. He did not know what was happening but for some reason he wanted to grip her in his hands.

"Let me leave."

"Out the door?"

She bit her lower lip. "You know what I mean."

The man smiled devilishly and leaned in a bit blocking her eyes from the fluorescent. "Promise me a date."

Phantasy stared at the man and didnt know how to respond.

"If I dont.."

Nicholas tilted his head to the bed. "We could stay like this with me staring at your lips and what I want to do with them."

"Nicholas!" she was surprised by how vulgar he could be in such situation.

This man was finally showing his true colours.
