"I couldn't. What about you? What are you doing here?" she asked him before turning around and letting her back lean against the same door where Theodore sat on the other side.
"Since I fell in love with this girl," replied Theodore and hearing the shuffling noise on the lower side of the door, Lucy could only believe that he had taken a seat against the door.
Lucy realized she hadn't told Theodore about what she was going to do with the mansion. She put her arms around him to hug him. Closing her eyes, she whispered back to him, "And I love you. You are the only person who has been able to hold my heart."
"I know you have been married before and you might have some unpleasant memories from that, but I promise to erase those things that have pained you and to re-write them with the new ones. To give you the life you deserve," said Theodore looking in her eyes without blinking. "I would never want to defile you the way I did to others because you are different and special. Right now, you are the most important person to me and you deserve to be treated with love and respect."
Calhoun rubbed his chin, "It saddens me that you don't want to live here in the castle with us. I am sure Madeline would be more than happy to have your company. Not to forget I and Theodore too, isn't that correct, Theodore?" came his nonchalant words, looking at the vampire who sat on another seat.
"I think you have got something wrong here," said Theodore. He pulled Samuel to him and whispered, "She was never yours to keep," and within a second, Samuel's back hit against the pillar as Theodore had kicked right at his stomach.
"Don't mind me," said Calhoun before adding two cubes of sugar. "With the amount of bitterness that you are made of, one or two cubes of sugar might help in sweetening you up."
