THROWING of his blazer he flopped in the bed with a heavy sigh, the feeling of lust and irritation is slowly hovering his precaution of letting himself lose control.

"How weird" He mumbled under his breath a smirk forming on his lips.

"I survived years without blood, so why am i craving for hers?" He questioned himself, entertain by what the girl made him feel just by showing her irresistible beauty, His certain that she's not the most beautiful lady in his eyes, so what's the cost?

It was too sudden that she wasn't able to say a word when the maids assisted her on eating, cleaning herself, changing her clothes and finally left her alone at the room with one maid left with her.

"Mary Angeline at your service Milady" The maid introduced herself with a bow and stood at the bedside like a mannequin, Callista stared at her for 5 minutes before she spoke.

"Where am i?' she asked the question she first thought of when she opened her eyes with her hole body full of wounds and bruises.

The maid glance at Callista with cold eyes before answering.

"At the Valkusz residence...." She answered plainly, Callista rolled her eyes before asking again.

"What location? What city, what country, region?!" Callista frustratingly said, the maid remain unwavering and gave Callista a quick answer.

"Nirvana"

"N-Nirvana?" Callista repeated checking if the maid is sure at her answer but the maid doesn't even have an expression to deny.

After the proclamation of the New World 10 years ago, All the nations around the world is controlled by the Nirvana, Every country is treated right depending on some of their attitude towards the Nirvana.

If you despise them, then you will be completely ignore along with your country, There was actually no such thing as a new world, Because the world will never change if every single human in the world don't.

But the question is why is someone like Callista, got in here in the Nirvana.

"Why am i here in Nirvana?" She questioned again but before the maid could even respond to her, A tall man with a messy vinous hair that has slight parted bangs at front, walked inside with an overwhelming dark aura around him that made the maid kneel and bow immediately on the floor, callista on the other hand was frozen at her spot shock at the sudden lad that came in without a warning.

The man paused in front of callista, his cold ocean eyes felt like knives piercing right pass her soul, the knight outfit he has made him look more like a prince than a knight. Callista slowly moved farther away from the man even though they have enough space to called as far , but that distance wasn't enough to assure callista that she was safe from the man.

But after a whole minute with nothing but a passing winter in the room summer came and the frown on the young man's face lifted into a cheeky smile that almost made Callista heart jump out of its chambers, in confusion and surprise.

"What are you doing?" The red headed man questioned her with one eyebrow up.

"H-huh?"

"Get up" He ordered her with a sweet smile in his lips which frightened Callista more. She wondered what on eart the man would do to her? After Apollo now this guy?

"W-Who are-" Callista's words were cut off when the man spoke.

"Oh i apologize for not introducing myself first for some lowlife like you" He stated with slight grimace at his tone, before slightly bowing with one arm behind him and the other in front.

"Hector Forleign... At your disgusting presence, human"

Callista was relieve she wasn't deluded by the sudden cheerful act of the man, because just by the way of his words she was positive that his worse than Apollo.

"What's wrong? Don't be shy, Get up or i'll have to punish you" The red haired man introduce as Hector emphasized the words 'get up' which automatically made callista stand on top of the bed, Hector frown for a second before giving her another sweet smile.

"I hope your not dumb, human" He scoffed in a sweet way which confused callista on deciding what reaction she have to feel at that very moment, Fear or Frustration? Nevertheless its not important at the moment!

Callista quickly got down of the bed bare footed, the coldness in the floor rapidly rise to her feet up to her legs, Callista shivered terribly in the floor like ice. But she hide the fact that she was freezing, and stared at the door instead of Hector's eyes, afraid on what might the man do if she bravely stared at him.

"What are you waiting for? Walk outside human" Hector commanded her, at first callista glanced at him with a puzzled look but after looking at his cheerful expression she walk outside without any question from her.

'What's going on? Are they setting me free? Are they letting me go now- no wait, they could be maybe gonna try and tortured me again?!' Callista was too focused on her own thoughts that she did not notice how the man pulled her into a corridor which leads to a place where Callista never imagined she would be.

Her eyes was suddenly blinded from the sunlight that she have to cover her eyes by the back of her palm and waited for a moment for her eyesight to clear, the pleasing sound of water falling from a fountain and the chirping sound of birds caught her attention that made her travel her eyes around the huge garden of the Valkusz residence.

She gaped at the relaxing place, she was too astound but this time she reminded herself not too space out too much, who knows what would happen to her if she keep spacing out without realizing that someone is about to stab her back.

"Come here Milady" Someone suddenly spoke at front who was also sitting in a chair in front of a table furniture and a glass of wine in its hands, Callista blinked numerous times to confirm what she's seeing but she can't fool herself anymore, she cleared her throat and slowly approached Apollo with her hands behind her.

She could feel Hector following her from behind but she ignored him and stop her tracks in front of Apollo who is smiling cheerfully at her.

'What's with their cheerful smiles? Do they realize how creepy it is?' She thought to herself feeling quite remorse at the two stunning hot man that didn't even waver her.

"You look quite nice today" Apollo complimented her, Callista heard the slight chuckle Hector did behind her back but she ignored it.

Her eyebrows furrowed and also checked her own outfit that she wasn't aware of, she thought she was wearing the gown the whole time but it was suddenly change into a knee length white dress, she also noticed that she was still bare footed, but she didn't felt disgust about it since the grass caress her feet softly, it felt quite relaxing for her.

"sit down Milady, we still have some unfinished business to talk about" Apollo assert before taking a quick sip at his wine.

Callista oblige at his order and take a seat opposite of him and Hector on the other hand remained at his post with his lips formed in a thin line, looking bored.

"Are you adopted?" Callista's mouth was drop open at his sudden straightforward question, Apollo remained serious while looking attentively to her, Callista fixed her facial features and shook her head.

"No, I'm not" she answered beginning to act like Layla with the way of how she talk.

"Hmmmm, Then how would you explain those shit colored eyes of yours?" Apollo ridicule the color of her unique eyes aggressively, Callista gritted her teeth and was almost at the verge of punching the man on his face or kicking him under.

She love her eyes, the combination of her parents eyes.

"This is how my eyes always looked like" She claim proudly, the corner of Apollo's lips rise in a smirk, he place the bottle of wine in the table furniture and leaned forward to close their distance, Callista wasn't surprise since she realize this man has a habit of doing that.

"Then you should keep those eyes of yours clear and safe" Apollo whisper to her that instantly frighten the poor lady, she pursed her lips before nodding, the reaction of Callista made Apollo satisfy before backing away and placed his left knee above the other in a professional and handsome way.
