Chapter 75: Blood sealed promise.
"We had it." I said the earliest thought that came to my mind. He flickered his lashes confusedly until it dawned on him. "What?"
"Yes. It was one night and…" I started but his hand in the air got my lips clamped. I swallowed up and saw him stand, he started walking towards me while I stepped backward in fear, but unfortunately my back hit the glass door in no time and I flinched.
He stopped in front of me and drawned his face closer, we were very close to each other and our lips were almost touching. I gulped down and savored his scent.
"I do not find myself doing such with you, but if you feel like doing it with me, I'm available." He wheezed out and my eyes grew wide, immediately he grabbed my hair and I screamed.
"And if I find out that you are here for a mission, I'll cut your head off your shoulder." He threatened deadly and yanked my head so it hit hard on the glass door.

~Stefan's pov~
I couldn't stop myself from thinking about it, had I really fucked her?. But I feel like I've been with her before, I feel like I've known her all my life and that's why I partially believed her. It wasn't easy forgetting some part of your life, I wonder what I had been doing these past few months.
I opened the door to Aaron's room and walked in. I searched and saw them under the blanket doing what they know best. Immediately he noticed my presence, he quickly climbed down using the blanket to cover themselves.
"What.." He started.."Shut up. You left the door open." I stated..He groaned and raked his hand through his hair, then looked at his mate.
"You left the door open." He scolded and she rolled her eyes, "Shut up. You came in last." She retorted.
"Oh. Don't ask me to shut up."
"Okay. Can you two shut the fuck up?." I ordered angrily. My eyes were flickering from black to its normal color. There was a sudden silence in the room with the both looking at me.
"Stop loosing your temper in my room. Get out!!." Aaron commanded, walked out of the bed naked and into his bathroom. "Ugh..What do you want, Stefan?." His mate asked.
I turned to face her, "Can I talk to you for a moment?." I asked, calmly. "Sure." She replied, and bent down to pick her clothes on the floor. Her stretched hand couldn't reach the clothes and she sighed.
"Can you please?" She asked and I rolled my eyes at her before using my powers to flip it on top of her. I turned and walked out of the room.
I waited for a few more minutes before she walked out of the room, all dressed. "We can't stay out here. Let's go to my room." I nodded to this and started walking behind her. Her room was just three doors ahead from Stefan's room. She took out her key and opened the room.
The room was just as it is. And I recoiled that I haven't been here for two months since I came back from the white witches coven. Yes, I was told that on my way back from the coven, the vampires attacked me and almost killed me. I was wounded badly and somehow lost part of my memory.
But since my legs hit the room, I feel like I've found something, as though this room had presented itself for the past months.
As I was walking further into the room, I started seeing several blurs of different images playing on my head. But the voices were clear.
~~~
"I'll be going on a trip with Wendy and will be coming back tomorrow."
"So I heard. Safe trip." The unfamiliar female voice said. I could see her blurred shadow sitting on top of this bed.
"Behave yourself while I'm away. Aaron is here to help if you need anything. Don't think you can escape from Hill town, my men are watching."
Was she my prisoner?. I wondered.
"Your dream last night?" There was silence...
"Never mind."
~~~
"There Are loads of memories here. It baffles me how blurred it was in my memory. It is as if a greater piece of me was here." I said to Cali and started walking around the room. Then I stopped in the wardrobe, and ran my hands over the clothes gently.
~~~
"Take these clothes to my room. Give it to the girl lying on my bed." I ordered the maid who bowed and left.
~~~
"Do you remember?." Cali asked me. I turned to see her sitting on her bed.
"Who was she?." I asked her, then turned back, looking at the clothes strangely.
"I'm not supposed to tell because my mom made me promise not to tell." She replied. I shook my head at her and turned to her, obviously not to continue my questions as it was useless.
"Why did you call my new maid, Elena?." She looked away when I asked the question. "I…" She trailed off and stood up. She was about to walk away when my hand grabbed her arm and stopped her from leaving.
"Help me Cali, please." I begged. She turned to look into my eyes. I knew she must be hiding something from me and wouldn't bring herself to say anything.
"I promised my mother with my blood." She told me. I stood dumbfounded, a promise sealed with blood was never easy to be broken. It was of no use talking to Cali Jeane, it was of no use.
The questions remained...why would lady ursula make her promise such?. What is it that warranted Cali to making a blood sealed promise?.
"What did you keep on the line?." I asked her...she looked down on her feet, "My mate's life. It was Aaron." I closed my eyes at what she just said and slowly let go of her.
