Chapter 109 Terrifying Monster

Venice Claire's POV

10:55 pm, I opened the door of his room to see him half-naked lying on his bed. I can't help the heated sensation that building up within me every time we get to be alone inside his room... and it's hard controlling myself. Luckily I'm stronger than I expected.

His eyes were close but I know more than enough that he's not yet asleep. I walked towards the closet, take my sleeping garments, and proceeded to the bathroom.

After finishing my bath, I felt so relieved opening the bathroom door. I walked towards the bed and lay down facing his so ever handsome face, I can't help but bit my lips the moment my eyes landed on his perfectly thin-lined lips.

Until now, I still asked myself... how did I ever make this guy fallen for me? I'm nothing... I'm empty... nothing is special about me... I'm covered with darkness and I killed people countless times.

He doesn't know about it yet but I can sense that he kept denying to himself what he knows as of now.

His long thick eyelashes slowly moving up, revealing his mesmerizing oceanic blue eyes that perfectly suit his sluggish-looking handsome face. I sighed, why do I keep on complimenting him?

"Can't sleep?" I asked lowly in a reassuring manner.

"I can't... especially when you keep on staring at me." He whispered and wrapped his arm around my waist pulling me closer to him. I felt so warm and comfortable from this closeness we have.

"I can't help it," I stated softly.

"Do I look so handsome?" A small smile crept on his face.

From the honesty, I have right now. I nodded and his smile suddenly disappeared, changing into a serious one.

"Ahm... do I have a chance to have your love, Claire?" I can feel his voice slightly trembling in hesitation.

I intensely looked into his hoping and weary eyes staring at me... deeper inside me... seems like he's looking right into my soul.

I slowly raised my hand, brushing his soft hair, it was so smooth that sends a tingling sensation through me. Looking at his hair, avoiding eye contact with him, I can still feel his stares at me which filled my stomach with butterflies and my life with flying colors.

I want this to last... I want to feel him beside me every second of my life... I want him.

My hand flows down to his nape.

"I..." I can feel him patiently waiting for my words, liking my touch. I suddenly press a vein from the back of his neck which made his eyes slowly closing. "love you." I stated the last words the moment his eyes were completely closed.

You already have my heart Xenon... you own me wholeheartedly... but, you shouldn't know about it. I know what you can do... "Whether you will leave me or will fight for me... both of them shouldn't happen," I murmured knowing that he already falls asleep.

If you discover that I am not that kind of angel but... a terrifying monster, there's a possibility that you will leave me... but I want to be with you until that day happens, I want to treasure this moment with you... and accept that one terrifying day.

On the other hand...

If you'll ever accept me for who I am, you will get involved in my dark world and I don't want that to happen... I don't want my family to hunt you. They are devils... and they can do anything if it means your death. I'm not stupid not to know what they will do, Xenon can be a blockage to their path and they wouldn't like it.

I kissed his forehead and take his arm out of me. Then, I slowly get out of the bed, facing the door.

"Anyone who tries to take you away from me... will die, until that day comes, when you don't need me anymore," I said more to myself and walked out of the room.

I went to Stella's room, good thing it is the nearest room to the staircase, when I opened her door, I saw Lucas and Stella sleeping so soundly on the bed. The Blue Fire Gang might have carried them all to their rooms. I smirk, they're hella good.

I took my bag under the closet and take my Silencer suit including Two of my Silencer guns and a pack of bullets.

Standing up, I looked at my watch, 11:55 pm. 5 minutes left and the lights will turn off. I went to the bathroom and wear my suit after 2 minutes I got out.

Through the window of Stella's room... I can see a man hiding from a distance behind a tree. They're already on their posts, prepared. If they make just one mistake, I won't let them get away.

This is my mission for the Blue Fire Gang, a test to know until when they will last.

Maybe tonight, tomorrow and if they are lucky, it will take ages.

I took a deep breath. Tonight will be... the end of the Degouti Mafia.

They choose the wrong path.

I walked out of the room and went towards the grand staircase, standing at the top... looking beyond, the lights suddenly turned off, only darkness was revealed in this silent night.

I let my eyes turned red as she takes over.

The Degouti Mafia chooses death.

Jacob POV's

I turned off the lights from the basement and immediately rushed towards the door. Using a small light from the screen of my phone, I walked too fast. I don't know why but fear is dominating me.

My heartbeat was racing too fast!

This house is too dark... too terrifying, knowing that a monster lies in here and I can feel her. This time, not the other way around, I feel different... I feel terrified!

I was ordered not to look back but when I got near the door... as saying goes, curiosity kills the cat. My head slowly turned back but I wish I didn't... my body started trembling in fear and I couldn't even move my feet!

I want to run but I can't!

I'm looking at the monster! A shadow of darkness but with eyes blazing with fire... this isn't Claire but an absolute monster!

From the top of the grand staircase... a monster is standing looking straight but suddenly, the two circular fires moved and I was too shocked when it was already staring at me. Holy cow!

"Shit." I cursed too lowly and opened the door at the fastest pace I can! I run towards the forest with my heart accelerating in thousands of beats per second. This couldn't be happening!

Just then, I slumped on the grass looking to nowhere... out of myself.

Those eyes... they were full of anger, hatred, and pain. I felt that I saw myself... my own monster.

"Jacob!" Blake yelled in a whisper, I looked at him to see his lips moving like he was talking to me yet I can't hear him...

All I can feel is my body... trembling in fear "What have I done?" I murmured asking myself.

I made a mistake that will haunt me all my life... I'd rather be dead than to see it again.

Than to see that... terrifying monster.
