She knock on the door and heard a voice shouted, “ ..Go away !!..”. She knock again and again . Until finally the door flung open and Rina appear angrily in front of her . Prisana held her breath and said , “ ..can I have a few words with him ..”. Rina throw a quick disgusted look and turn her face away , chin in the air and coldly said , “ ..he doesn’t want to talk to you , get the hell away ..”
Prisana wanted to cry , it was like cold water splash in her face but she insist , “ ..it will not be long , please . ..”
Rina turn and glare at the servant girl with pure hatred and then she smile , a mocking curve of her lip and calmly said , “ ..alright then , go on ! but don’t say I didn’t warn you ..” she laughed and then said “..if he kick you out ..” she step out the room , brushing her shoulder against the servant girl and laugh .Prisana ignore the insult and took a deep breath before walking in . The room was full of misty and sweet scent , the familiar aroma she once smell before . The demon shifted and sat up on the bed , he watch her approach him and then stop within a couple feet .
“..master , ..” she paused , detecting Rina ‘s laugh from outside and then continue , “ ..you once said , if anyone of your mistress can offer you an heir , that person can have anything her heart desire …”
“..yes , I had said it ..”
“..I have not receive my wishes yet ..”
“..then , what do you want ?..”
“..my freedom ..”
Then without any hesitation , he reply “ ..granted..” he turn away and laid down on the mistress with his back facing her . Hot tears stung her eye as she gazed for a moment in complete disappointment and tell herself to hold back the tear . She was hoping for more but he cut it short , he is heartless , cruel , the demon itself !
“..I will leave ..soon..” she sniffed and wipe the uncontrollable tear .
“..good , if nothing else ..leave..” he yawed as if there nothing to care about ,
“..within the time I had live here , I had experience pain and horror . It was like a nightmare that I can not wake up and I wanted to escape as far as possible..”
“..you made a good decision..” he reply , while reaching over to pull the cover over his body .
Her voice became soft and breaking , “ ..but within those moment , I had also found happiness . I had try to fight it and deny it but at the end I was lying to myself and making excuses to hate you ----”
“..are you thru yet ? I’m tier ..” he yawn again
She was losing hope and come to realize there no use to confess this feeling she been hiding. That she loved him and wanted to spend the rest of her life with him and their child . She thought , if she come and tell him about her leaving --perhaps he will try to convince her other wise and then talk to his mother . She was willing to accept her fate as his mistress , forever or until his pity for her dies out . But god was not on her side , his body language shown annoyance and impatient because of her presence . This was his last chance to redeem himself , she continue on “ ..I will take good care of Jade ..” she turn around and quickly left the room before any more tear was shred , she passes Rina by the door way and caught a glimpse of her cold eye .
The next morning , the servant came by to collect dirty laundry in the young master ‘s bedchamber . She expected the mistress to be awaken by now when she walk in but to her surprise the room and the crib was empty . She thought the mistress probable went out side for a walk with the baby or perhaps downstairs at the breakfast table . She goes about her duty and left the bedchamber , afterward she went down stair and walk pass the dinning room . Ms. Nawahdee saw her and call out , “ ..you ! Over there ! Come here ..”
“ ..yes madam’ ? ..” she approach the table . Everyone was present and enjoying their meal . Ms. Nawahdee asked , “ ..go call Prisana to come down ..”
“..she not in the room , madam ..”
“..what ? She must ! I have not seem her this morning as well ..” she turn to everyone at the table and ask , “ ..have anyone of you ladies seen Prisana came downstairs ..” . Everyone shook their head and stop eating .
“..she not in the room , I just left from there ..” said the servant girl .
“..Jade. What about my granddaughter ?!..”
“ ..she was gone as well ..”
Ms.Nawahdee went pale and immediately left the table to search for herself . The rest of the mistresses was in complete confusion and scatter away , each went to their own separate way to search for Prisana and Jade . All servant in the mansion went on a man hunt for hours and came up with nothing . Everyone was shock and worry , their precious Jade is no where to be found and Ms. Nawahdee was in complete dismay . She curse at all the servant for not knowing how or when the two left ! The demon came out the room and saw everyone running and holler . Curious , he grab one of the servant’s arm and pull him to the side “ …what’s going on ? All I hear is my mother shouting and cursing ?..”
“..Prisana and the baby is missing ...”
The demon release the servant arm and stood there dumfounded . Rina came from behind him and hug his waist , “ ..it still morning ..let’s go back to bed ..”
“..Rina , my child is missing ..”
“..who ? So ? Let’s go back inside ..”
“..no, I have to found her ..” he peel her finger away and follow the servant . Rina stump her feet and scrabble her hair .
In the main room , Ms. Nawahdee was going ballistic pacing the room as she shout at every servant that reported bad news ! She doesn’t want to hear it ! All she want is for them to find her granddaughter ..immediately !! Just then , Aum walk in and said “ ..mother , what’s going on ? Why is my daughter gone ?!..”
She glare at him and toss her hand in the air , the fool finally worry about something other than his witch of a wife ? “ .. how in the hell do I know ? I want the mother to leave not my grandchild !..”
“ ..did you send people to goes to the country side where she live ?..”
“..of course I did !! Her parent doesn’t know a damn thing !! Good lord , they didn’t even know she give birth !!..” she said angrily
“..I’ll go find her …”
“ ..NO ! You will not !!..” scream Rina from across the room and march in like the devil out of hell .
“..let him ! ..” shouted Ms. Nawahdee
“..NO! If you find your child , that’s mean you will find the mother as well . I will not allow it ..”
The demon came to a complete haul . Inside , his heart was shouting my child ..my child but the other part of him said NO. The only thing in his memory was the image of his child, as he try to search back to all that had happen but everything is like a dream of some sort that his mind is trying to block out . Though he haven’t seen that little creature more than twice but her innocent face had engrave itself in his head .
“..son , snap out of it !!..” said his mother , interrupting his thought as he stare at her and then back to his wife in total lost and indecision
“ O’ no , he not going anywhere !..” Rina encircle her arm around the demon and try to drag him away . Ms. Nawahdee hiss at the witch and encircle his other arm .
“.. Aum , this witch is controlling you to long . I don’t care anymore . All I want is my grandchild back ! To hell what this witch want !..”
He was caught in the middle of a tag n war as his mind run wild and out of frustration , he roar like a mighty beast . Both woman immediately release his arm and cover their ear . He move away from them and said “ ..I will find my child and bring her back . And Rina . I have no feeling for Prisana . I can promise you that . I only want my child !..” his eye glow angrily at the thought of Prisana running off with Jade .
It been two week since Prisana left the mansion and came to reside at the lake house , that her father had rented from a friend . The location is nearly 100mile away from her farm and her parent had arrange someone to come by every week to bring food and supply . To avoid being suspicious , Prisana advise her parent not to come visit her until everything is settle . Her parent was sadden , they were thrill to see their grandchild for the first time and couldn’t stay away from the little creature , despite their daughter claim , the grandparent will find their way to the lake house once a week -- with caution of course . Other problem also arise , Jade need a drop of human ‘s blood once a week according to what she remember the demon had told her and back at the mansion everyone adore the infant , every male servant was willing to offer their drop of blood and which person Ms. Nawahdee choose was still a mystery . The only person she can trust is her father but she afraid the secret will have to be expose if he was to question her . They only know the problem she have while living with the Nawahdee but they do not know they are vampire !
She have no choice but to try using fish blood the first week . She remember Le once said it will never work since animal is difference from human’s blood but Prisana decided to test it out . The result was amazing , Jade didn’t react to the blood nor did she get sick but if anything was to happen , Prisana will seek her father help and risk getting expose .Vampire are night creature to much sunlight mean more blood is needed to restore back it’s energy , Jade doesn’t have a problem being outside if she is cover under the blanket to avoid direct sunlight. In their house all the window was cover with red curtain , the design was like the one in the mansion . Raising a baby vampire have it’s disadvantage and in the future they will face many difficultly . Had she done the right thing by taking Jade away from her father and grandmother ? Is she to selfish to keep Jade to herself…completely ? The Nawahdee are wealthy and powerful , they can afford to make anything possible to fit with their vampire lifestyle and Prisana can not offer such a thing . She was sad once again when ever she thought of the future and she pity her daughter so dearly , she deserve a life more cherish than this . Perhaps giving up Jade for the better of her life is a more suitable option -- what a mother to do ?! Prisana walk into the nursery room and stood by the door frame , watching her daughter sound a sleep on the bed with her face flat down on the mattress . Tear begin to flow ..one drop at a time , if only the demon was here ….
