THIS PLAN IS A DISASTER

CHAPTER THIRTY-SEVEN

BLANC'S POV

I didn't know what to say at that moment, Lucas and I stared at her in shock. The fact that we didn't hear her footsteps when she was approaching us was shocking.

"Plan on how to take Dracula down" Lucas lied, he was quick to pick up a lie unlike me that's horrible at it.

"Oh, sure. I need to shower. When I get back, I'll tell you all that happened today Lucas?" Denise said and made her way to her room.

Lucas? She picked Lucas to talk to when I was the one worried about her. I felt a little hurt but I had to shove it off and focus on the situation at hand. The plan is my ultimate focus right now and I can't afford to be distracted because my family's life is on the line.

I just sat on the couch and Lucas sat beside me almost immediately. We sat in silence and I enjoyed it.

The curtains were opened so I could feel the breeze from the outside brushing my face smoothly, the feeling sent a smile on my face.

"So when are you leaving?" Lucas asked me and for a moment I felt uncomfortable around him. I didn't want to leave Denise without saying goodbye but leaving her was part of the plan that I have promised to stick to.

I became reluctant and couldn't speak, he noticed my reluctance and screamed, "Answer my question"

At that point, I knew he was getting angry at me. But he wasn't just telling me to leave, he wanted me to forget about Denise for now and focus on Andi. If Denise and I see at school what am I going to say, I hate seeing hurt and disappointment on her face.

I scratched the back of my head as I opened my mouth to speak, "Do I really have to stop talking to Denise for this plan of yours works, I do not want anything to do with a cheat like Andi" I managed to put few words together that made sense and also sent a meaning to Lucas.

Lucas signed, and place his right hand beneath his chin like he was thinking of the next word to say. "If you do not want your mother's head on a platter of Gold, you will stick to the plan" After saying that, he stood up and walked out of the living room aggressively.

Sitting on the couch, alone in the living room, I allowed my thinking to take the better part of me. My mind keeps going to my mum and how she screamed in tears when u decided to embark on this journey to save her life moreover I was getting to miss Andi and I was desperate to see her.

The fact that I have changed my motive will be very surprising to her although she would be proud that u was no longer working with Dracula. But I do not want to fail, the hurt and sadness that would appear in my mum's eyes would break me to pieces. But what about the hurt in Denise's eyes that would show when I stop talking to her?

For a second, I didn't think of anything except for Denise. She may be the strongest in both realms now but strength can't be compared with emotions.

"Arrg" I yelled like I was just realizing what I was getting myself into earlier. I use my both hands to scatter my hair repeatedly until someone gives me a gentle tap on my shoulders.

"Are you okay?" Denise's voice came from behind me and her hands were still on my shoulders. I was in no mood for talking, so I simply nodded my head in agreement.

She turned around, so she could sit beside me on the couch. After doing that, she looked at me with her eyes filled with different emotions that I couldn't understand, "Is the plan hard for you to do?" She asked like she knew what the plan was all about.

I nodded my head and started playing with my fingers. A few minutes from now I'll stop talking to her so I have to create an argument right now, at least I'll have a reason for cutting her off my life.

"But if you can't do it, I'll just talk to Lucas to change the plan although I don't know anything about the plan yet," she said, a d for some moment, I felt genuine hope which died off a seconds later, there was nothing she could do, Lucas had already made up his mind.

"Where have you been since you came back at midnight?" I cautioned her like her mother would, knowing she hates being cautioned like that.

She looked at me with disgust evident on her face, she wanted to say something but kept quiet, I looked to the floor because her stares were getting intense. And I continued my caution because it seemed she didn't want to get angry.

"The fact that you went out for that long got me worried and you didn't even notice that your mother wasn't at home" I continued talking. I was looking at her face now and the disgusted expression on her face had not changed a bit, that was Typical of Denise.

"Are you trying to piss me off?" She asked after minutes of keeping me quiet. Answering that question wasn't really that easy, I wanted to tell her, yes, that was trying to piss her off due to the plan laid out by Lucas but I couldn't.

I just looked at her and gave a weak chuckle, "I'm a friend and I'll always tell you when you are in the wrong" I said sternly. I swallowed hard as I noticed her anger was rising gradually.

She stood and started walking around the living room, she was trying to control her anger but I do not think that was going to last. Just spending a few days with her, I know the anger she can Condon but definitely not this time around.

"First of all, you aren't normal anymore, maybe that's why Andi left you," she said sternly and her words were harsh and it hit me hard but I tried not to show it.

I cleared my throat to talk again but the words didn't come out. She kept on walking around in the living room so she could cook herself but her anger grew every second that passed by.

"I'm not normal, but I'll never call my mother by her name or by her death," I said and I knew I have crossed the line already, her next action will determine if our plan or rather Luca's plan was going to work.

"Get the fuck out of my house now" She yelled, with anger, her eyes had turned red and get hand was stretched out with her fingers pointing to the entrance door.

The care and concern that were in her eyes earlier were all gone and it hurt me greatly. The plan was working and now it's time for me to leave her house until Lucas gives me a signal to take the next move.

I stood up from the couch sluggishly, but her stare meant that I should be quick about what I was doing.

After I fully stood up, I was about to apologize when I reminded myself that an apology was not necessary and we are meant to be in a fight to make the plan work.

With hazy steps, I walked to the living room to just sit a little before heading home, I was going to walk home because my car keys weren't available, it was going to be a long walk.

After sitting for some minutes, I decided it was time to walk home, and telling Lucas about it wasn't really compulsory. He was surely going to notice.

I walked briskly to check if Denise was still in the living room and there she was sitting on the couch, with her hands bent and both hands on her head, scattering her hair in anger.

"I'm sorry" I whispered to myself and I was certain she didn't hear me.

I walked towards the door with steady steps. My hands were about to touch the doorknob when Denise stopped me by saying, "So you are going back to your cheating girlfriend huh". After saying this, she let out a very sarcastic laugh which made me feel a little bit stupid.

I was searching for what to say, but nothing came to my mind. I decided to ignore her and just leave since I had already gone far.

I twisted the doorknob and opened the door revealing the cold midnight. I inhaled the air and tried to empty the heaviness in my heart.

I was about to take a steady step out of Denise's house when her voice stopped me again.

"I read minds now," she said and I tried acting surprised but it wasn't possible. I just nodded and waited a little bit if she was going to say anything further and she did.

"I read your mind throughout your charade and I'm surprised at your acting," she said and I stayed frozen at the moment.
