Chapter forty

Celina sat down on the swing that was in the backyard, thinking about what Lucas had said. Just then Benjamin came...

" my lady " Benjamin called it in a romantic way. Celina turned...

" oh, it's you Benjamin " Celina said.

" my lady, what is troubling you? " he asked.

" oh, nothing " Celina replied. Just then, one of the maid in the mansion came, and gave Celina a note. Celina read it, and she quickly rushed out. Benjamin became suspicious, then turned to the maid...

" what was in that note? " he asked. The servant stared at him for a while, before answering him...

" who are you to ask me that question? " the servant said, then left.

Celina entered the the forest. She went deep inside, when all of a sudden, other demons appeared in front of her. She stumbled back a little, then smiled...

" are you here for my blood? " Celina asked. The leader of among them, smiled.

" why are you out here alone?, or did you forget that many creatures are after you? " the guy asked.

" I did not forget. I just came out to have fun " Celina said.

" then let's have fun. Get her " the leader commanded. The other three demons rushed to her.

" wait wait " Celina yelled as she started moving back. The leader stopped them...

" what is it? " he asked.

" I'm still young, why kill me now?, can't you wait till I turn old and ready to die?,please wait " Celina said

" you're gonna stay young for a very long time, I can't wait till then " the leader said. " Get her " he ordered. Before the demons could even take one step, Celina had started running for her dear life. The leader smiled...

" let's go " he said, then they all disappeared. Celina was running as fast as she could, she was breathing heavily. As she's running, she's looking back and forth to see if they were following her. And just then, she hit a tree, and fell down.

" ouch " she touched her head painfully. Then she started looking round, but saw nobody...

" surprise " a voice from behind. The voice was really familiar to her. She was even scared to stand turn back.

Celina managed to stand up, then turned back...

" hi " she smiled.

" hello " the leader said.

" do you know that you've lost the chance of drinking my blood? " Celina asked. The demons became so confused.

" what? " the leader asked confused, and was searching around the forest...

" there's clearly no one here. Not even your house is here " the demon said. " don't waste our time. Get her " he ordered. As the demons rushed her, they suddenly turned to stone, remaining one.

" what's that? " the leader said, as he started searching the whole place with his eyes.

" like I said, your time is up " Celina said.

" haha haha " someone laughed from behind. The leader looked up.

" my sister inlaw is really fun " Grey said, then continued his laughter.

" I am his sister inlaw " Celina said, pointing herself. The leader became more upset, he disappeared, and appeared behind Celina, hold her neck, and ready to break it.

" ahhh " Celina screamed.

" I will kill her " he threatened Grey. But Grey didn't seem threatened, he just kept on smiling.

" I am powerful. I am full of strength.... " Just then he appeared behind the leader and turned him to stone.

" and nobody can threaten me " Grey completed he's words. Celina couldn't leave the position she was in, because the leader's hand was tightly holding her neck.

" I can't leave here " Celina said. Grey smiled again, then broke the hand easily, as if tearing up a paper.

" you're strong " Celina said, surprised.

" and you're smart " Grey said, then smiled.

" you love smiling " Celina said with a calm voice.

" aren't you...like feeling weird in front of all the stones, since they used to be.... " he paused. " well, I'm guessing Devon kills in front of you, so you are not scared " he said.

" no. Devon never let me see when he wants to kill someone. And besides, you didn't kill anyone, you only turned them to stone, and they died from there " Celina said, then smiled. Grey smiled as well...

" so let's talk? " Grey said, as he led the way.
