The Billionaire's Bite
Chapter 44

"You're a very kind person Daruel. You're so perfect to be anyone's boyfriend, you're kind, rich, handsome, and respectful. But right now Daruel, I can't think of an answer to you. I'm so embarrassed because I know I'm hurting you now with what I'm saying. I'm not ready for things like this yet," I said. I don't know what his expression is now. I just want to swallow the earth at this point.

It's just my first time in this situation.

Many confessed their feelings to me when I was still in school, but feel differently now.

"It's okay. I can wait," he replied.

"I'm very sorry Daruel."

"No, it's okay... If the time comes for you to love me too, that's maybe the happiest day of my whole life. But if you find in others the love you seek. I'll be happy for you Anna because I know you're happy."

I couldn't help myself and immediately hugged him.

The word 'thank you were not fit in everything when he did well to me.

It hugged back to me. We also remained in that position for a few seconds until I let go of the hug.

"It's too late. Come on, let's go home," he said. I nodded.

He even helped me stand up and we walked to his car together.

It also took us a few hours to get to the condo.

"I'm happy to be with you again Anna. Good night," he said when I arrived in front of Thea's condo.

"I'm also Daruel, thank you again," I replied. He nodded and waved before finally leaving.

Drake's POV

I was also confined here in my office for a few hours. I didn't realize the passage of time.

It was getting dark all around and if I'm not mistaken, the other employees had already left.

I stared at the sticky note taped to the side of my desk.

What does it make me feel?

I have never felt this before.

I get angry every time another man sticks to Anna.

I can't explain why.

My mind is confused.

Her simple woman. Almost every man can fall in love with her because of the habit she has.

But why doesn't seem clear if I love her?

Maybe it was because I knew Lance liked Anna.

I could see in Lance's eyes that he was seriously courting Anna.

He's been my best friend since college. I don't want to ruin our friendship just because of a girl.

I don't want to feel this way about Anna. I can't fall for Anna.

If only mom was here, I could have told someone about the problem and she could have given me advice.

// FLASHBACK //

My eyes focused on mom as she hemp to cultivate the plants.

A few more minutes passed and it was over.

"Oh, Drake, what are you doing here?" she asked when he saw me on the side.

I immediately stood up and approached her, we entered the mansion together and sat down at the round table.

"Mom, can I ask a question?" later I asked.

"Sure baby, what is it?"

"How did you meet dad?" I wondered.

She smiled broadly and sat across from me.

"Why did you ask?"

"I just want to know."

"Your dad is my classmate in High School. He confesses his feeling to me but we're both young at that time. So I thought he was joking. But then, even when we were in college he still didn't stop courting me, the days passed and I realized that I love your dad too. At that time, I asked your dad what he saw in me and why he chose to court me," she explained at length, she smiled broadly and seemed to be thinking of the past event of her life.

"Why?"

"Your dad told me. When he first saw me it was as if you slowed down everything around. It's very weird but the sign he asked for is exactly what he asked for to get his 'the one." "Slow-mo? Is that happening?"

"I don't know your dad, but that's what happened to him so he started falling in love with me."

"Did you know dad's secret before?"

"Actually baby, no. I don't have a diet that your dad has a werewolf race, at first I was surprised and hesitant to continue the relationship with him. But later I gradually accepted him completely because I love him, when you love someone, you will be able to accept him/her completely no matter what he or she is."

"Is that so mom? I hope the same thing happens to my future wife. I hope she also accepts my true identity."

"That will happen, son. Just trust me, but if they can't accept you. We have always been here with your dad to help and support you."

I smiled and hugged him.

// END OF FLASHBACK //

Your deceit mom, you said you won't leave me.

Will I be able to accept when I become my wife?

Or maybe I'm old enough to be single.

What is it I'm thinking? My problem now must be the problem facing my race.

Suddenly I walked over to my office window.

Unexpectedly my eye caught Anna while talking to a man.

Isn't that Daruel?

They were talking face to face and soon after Anna got in Daruel's car and they left.

I don't know but I suddenly felt very sad.

Why am I acting like this?

None of my head for the door out of my office. I rolled my eyes across the working station but not a single employee was gone.

I immediately went to the parking lot to go home.

Even though I hadn't been able to get close to my car, I felt something strange around me.

It was as if someone else was watching me.

I continued to walk. I was about to open my car door when I felt a sharp object behind me.

I immediately backed away and quickly turned around behind me.

I saw two men with blackened and wrapped faces.

"Hello, you look like you're alone now huh?" promise of one.

Part of this parking lot is dark and no one can tolerate it.

One quickly attacked, he quickly punched me in the shoulder so I was thrown to the side.

They are very fast and very powerful.

Based on their actions they are not a werewolf. If I am not mistaken they are vampires.

But what do they need from me?

Suddenly a man removed his jacket so his face appeared.

I immediately noticed the 'F' mark on his neck.

Wait! The same was imprinted on a man I had fought before.

What do they need from me?

A man stared at me and suddenly his eyes lit up.

Gradually I felt pain in my body.

What is happening to me?

"Ah!" I moaned because I felt like I was going crazy.

"It's a very easy job after all. You still feel Dave's power but you seem to be having a hard time," said one of his companions.

"What do you need from me Ah!" I moaned when I felt the extreme pain in my stomach.

I can no longer bear the power that threatens me now. If I last longer in this situation. I may not live anymore.

I can't stand on my legs because of the power that is holding me back now.

I had to think of a way to get away from them.

I slowly gathered my strength from my other hand.

I felt a warm feeling enveloping me. Suddenly I hit the ground hard causing it to shake.

My plan worked because they both fell and lost Dave's power that enveloped me.

I ran briskly and hid. I can't knock them out on my own.

They were too strong and I might just die.

I immediately hid in a corner.

"Do you think you could escape us?!" I heard his companion shout.

Shit! They can smell me and find me quickly.

I turned around and my eye caught a bottle of oil on the side.

I immediately took it and no doubt poured it on my body.

I felt good around and quickly went to my car when I felt they were no longer around.

I quickly started my car and went home.
