Blood Oath: Forever Yours novel Chapter 2

That face was half handsome and half horrifying. Veins were crawling all over that part of the face like spider web. There seemed to be no skin and the veins looked like they would burst at any time. The man stood there silently. His aura was intimidating and he did not utter a word.

His sidekick raised one leg and gave a hard kick towards Evelyn’s man. “Shut your goddamn mouth up! If not because of our master’s face, for what do you think we’ll come here? Open the door!”

“Yes, yes!” Evelyn’s man quickly scrambled to the door and opened it. Charlotte who was at the edge of having a mental breakdown turned around and saw a lofty figure walking in slowly. The door was then closed behind him. Without being able to react, a strong petrichor approached and the man grabbed her rudely. He tossed her onto the floor. The sound of bone breaking and the tearing of the shirt were heard at the same time.

She was instantly flooded with immense terror. Charlotte trembled. She wanted to struggle but she had no strength. She wanted to shout and resist, but she could not let out a voice. There was only desperate moan that echoed all over the room. The man went behind her and forced her to kneel on the ground with the most humiliating posture. Charlotte closed her eyes in despair.

“Lotta, come with me, I can give you everything in this world, as long as you want it.”

“I have an identity that will make you surprised, and also a secret that I’m hard to tell. As long as you demand it, I could tell you all about it.”

“Lotta, I’ll wait for you, no matter for how long, I’ll wait.”

She initially thought she would have the purest and the most wonderful romantic love in this world, and she would give her everything to the man she loved the most. Yet she was dirtied now, and she no longer fit to do so. She could only cry and go against her true thought under the drug’s effect while keeping on calling a man’s name in her heart.

Lawrence.

Lawrence.

Lawrence…

Not knowing when, the rainstorm had stopped. The man was working fiercely and he tossed her onto the floor with extraordinary disgust. He got up and left without saying a word. The door was opened and closed. His subordinate who was guarding outside turned around when he heard the sound. He realized half of the man’s face which was horrifying before had returned to normal after doing the business with the woman. The face at the moment looked determined and apathetic, it was flawless.

“Mr. Harris, Daniel was right, that woman’s blood really works for you! You can now finally come back with us!”

“I have to say, why don’t we just spend the money and take that woman back, it will save some troubles…”

The man turned to the side and glanced at the room behind him with an icy look. “No need. What happened today is gonna be the last time. I only want that woman’s blood. From today onwards, as long as it’s a woman, get her far away from me.”

His subordinate was startled and seemed to have remembered something. “Mr. Harris, could it be it’s the girl that you wait that makes you hate women that much? If you really want to take her with you, we can wait for one more night until she shows up.”

The man’s face froze, a cold, loathsome and bloodthirsty look flashed across his face. He sneered out of the blue shortly. “That kind of woman is not worth it!” After finished, he turned and walked towards the exit of the villa. He stopped firmly after taking a few steps, looking towards his subordinate and ordered coldly, “There’s a thing I want you to do for me before leaving City B.”

…

Charlotte became a soulless object after the man left. She lied on the floor silently as if she was already dead. The rain was pouring down outside with the strong wind and her world had already collapsed. She heard Evelyn’s mad laughter from downstairs after she got the money.

It was already spring. The sunshine was bright outside. The birds were chirping and the flowers were blooming. Yet the room before them was deprived of light all year round. It was dark and moist. There was also an extremely faint blood smell in the air. Having heard the commotion, the skinny figure which was curling up on the bed slightly trembled and struggled to block the dazzling light above with hand.

It was Charlotte. She had been held captive here for five years. Seeing the people in white coat, there was not a single expression on her usual pale face. She only extended her hand towards them numbly. It had been five years. Every month, she would have chance to see her father and brother once. Someone would take a tube of blood from her and Evelyn would receive a five million yuan cheque.

She thought everything would end as normal this time. Yet she heard the sound of the television from the opened door when the housemaid turned it on from the outside. “Today, Lawrence Harris who is a young and well-praised entrepreneur in City B has suddenly showed up and caused a stir in the business world of City B…”

Lawrence…Harris? That name which was deep-rooted inside her heart had made her lifted her head at once. She pushed the people beside her madly the next second and staggered all the way to the exit. Yet her legs were weak. She fell straight onto the floor once she got into the living room. The moment she lifted her head, a familiar face went directly into her line of sight.

Time did not leave a trace on him, yet it had made his chiseled facial features looked even more impressive and there was a natural horrifying aura that was typical of someone superior. That pair of eyes was cold and deep that could not be read. It was really him. He had come back! Flashlight was all over him and the press was competing to interview him.

“Mr. Harris, are you born in City B?”

“Having chosen to set the headquarters of your ongoing successful business here in City B, is it because you have some special feelings towards the city?”

“Are you single? May I ask if…”

A woman’s soft chuckle was heard from Lawrence’s back. “Please don’t trouble him any longer. Lawrence’s temper is not as good as you think. You won’t be able to take it if he loses his temper.” A curvy white figure then walked out from behind, followed by a little figure that popped out from the woman’s back that pounded towards Lawrence. “Daddy…”
