Chapter 72: Death, tears and chaos
" Who are you?",
" Someone that has come to help you", the man replied and took off his glasses.
" Who are you to help us?", Lora asked looking confused,
" I have come to help you utilize your talent and skills to gain wealth and fame", he replied boldly but received a weird look from them like he was crazy.
" I'm going to make you famous, you won't have to sleep on the street as I'm going to provide you some large and amazing house to live in provided with every other thing you need",
" Cut the chase human, what did you want?".
The man chuckled, " I'm just trying to do you a favor",
Rafal laughed briefly and replaced it with a cold stare within a few seconds, " do I look like I need your ridiculous wealth and fame, and how did you find me?",
" You don't have to be so pretentious, I know of course that you need help, and how I find you? you shouldn't be so surprised for trending after performing those stunts at the convenience store, I'm intrigued".
Rafal was quiet for a bit even though he didn't clearly understand what the man meant but he also wasn't going to let any human boss him around. He took a few steps closer to him gazing right into his eyes enough to see his reflection in his, the man bodyguard immediately stood in a defensive position but he raised his hand to signify no threat so they should relax. Rafal was close enough now, standing right in front of the man whom his gut irks him. He knows one thing for sure for the man to have come all the way for him, it must be of something important.
The domineering glare Mr. Mitchell was getting from Rafal was making his knees weak but he tried maintaining his composure which didn't last. He had a strong energy trying to make him bow before him and he didn't understand what kind of domineering energy that was.
" You are not doing me a favor, you need my help", he said like he could see through Mr. Mitchell like a transparent glass.
" What makes you think so?",
" Because you are nothing", he said feeling so sure and making Mr. Mitchell seem so inferior, " However, I'll accept your deal",
" Rafal!", Lora called, " what are you doing? We don't even know them",
" Don't be scared, Lora",
" I'm not scared",
" Just consider yourself still on an adventure", he said with a smirk and entered the vehicle as the guard opened the door, he didn't wait for Lora and Isabella but since he went in, they had no choice but to follow him.
This was Lora's first time in the car, it was so strange yet exciting, she kept gazing around, gasping and exclaiming, receiving weird looks from the guards sitting along with them in the vehicle. Soon they arrived at a big mansion, magnificent and breathtaking, they were taken to a room where some maids were patiently waiting for them with an open closet to choose wear for them. They are familiar with clothes but not this type of clothes, it was so weird and awkward for Lora and Isabella but Rafal who was always used to being treated as royalty made the maids bath and dress him up, he blended in faster than the ladies.
When they were finally dressed, they were fed, shown around the house, introduced to some things and some people, and finally showed them their respective rooms, the ladies were given a large room to share while Rafal had a huge room all to himself. After they were fully settled in, Rafal stood a few steps away from his bed, glancing through the transparent glass and feeding his eyes with the beautiful light of the houses, they looked so beautiful, too beautiful.
" Do the human world have to look this beautiful and peaceful? there should be some chaos smoke coming out of somewhere, the world is boring without evil", he said, "moreover, I need to restore my energy and powers as fast as possible, so I can find my bride more quickly", he said and just a few seconds later, a guard came to check up on him on the behalf of Mr. Mitchell but there was no sign of any living being in the room and when Mr. Mitchell received this feedback, he shrugged saying,
" Maybe he's out, taking a walk",
" but no one saw him going out of his room",
" Or Maybe they are not doing their job properly", he scolded, " You better be careful, nothing must go wrong",
" Yes sir", he bowed and left immediately.
Mr. Mitchell stood behind the table with a glass of wine dancing in his hand,
"Nothing must go wrong", he said to himself. He needs to bring his movie and modeling industry back to the limelight, ever since the scandal of him sexually abusing his actress before giving them a role and yet producing uninteresting movies went viral, he has been facing one downfall after the other nearly went bankrupt. He barely saved his reputation and all allegations against him are with no evidence so he was able to scale through that but he needs to save his bank account.
A lady was walking through the alley heading back home from work, she was listening to music that she had no idea about the strange man following her but her instinct didn't betray her. She looked back suddenly but there was no one so she guessed she was just overthinking but things became scarier when her instinct kept increasing and the lights wouldn't stop blinking, so she decided to hasten up to reach her house on time but unfortunately, in a second of her decision, her mouth was suddenly covered from behind, she was pulled away with a hand creating a big hole in her belly.
Immediately after the woman dropped dead, Amelia sprang up from her sleep in her fright, breathing heavily and panting, her hands were shaking in fear that was unknown to her. She wasn't sure of what was going on but she was frightened to death. Liam barged into her room looking so worried and when he saw her panting and sweating he was even more concerned. He ran to her side and sat beside her,
" What's wrong? Is everything okay? Did you have a nightmare? I heard you scream that's why?".
Amelia wasn't even aware that she screamed out. She looked at Liam and said,
" I sense death, tears, and chaos".
