*** The 3rd Promised Chapter ***
Ayra didn't had any idea that for how long she lost her consciousness or for how long she was laying in that dark corner. Downstairs, Jessie was waiting for her eagerly but after waiting for an hour, she saw no one coming not even once Ayra had passed her any signal. The more time passed, Jessie began to worry about her.
Being impatient wasn't giving her any comfort. Hence she decided to take her upstairs after getting some self encouragements. The old man would be so mad at her if he found her in his mansion. Jessie came out from her hiding spot, carefully took steps towards the stairs but as soon as she scooter closer, footsteps began to echo from the opposite end.
Reluctantly she had to back away, running to the other end and wrapped her silhouette inside the darkness again. A dark silhouette made his way outside, humming a whistle which aroused the suspension in her heart. According to her information, there wasn't anyone in this place except her old grandpa and few guards who worked under him.
To quiest her thirst of curiosity, Jessie peeked through the corner of door to look outside. But the lights on the corridor didn't help her enough to watch the walking figure. One glimpse of that figure, she had the same feeling like Ayra shared with her when they entered into this mansion.
Was it Cedric?
Jessie's stomach tightened into a knot. If Cedric was really here and figured out that they came here without telling her, no one would be able save them from punishments.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBut why did Cedric came here? Didn't he tell that he had no connection with Grandpa anymore?

Back to the room, a basin of cold water greeted Ayra at the dark corner of room. Jerking off from her unconscious state, her eyes took a long time to open and process with the things that were happening around. Her body was still aching from the pain that she sensed at earlier. But prior to everything, she was sensing two pair of silhouette standing few steps away from her.
Ayra groaned in pain, forcing her body to push up to see above her. Her pair of groggy eyes were stunned, startled by the cold iciness of gaze that laid on her unblinking. It was the silver haired Grandpa who was now staring down at her murderously.
Ayra's expression switched between fear and anxiety but before she had the chance to give any explanation, Grandpa spoke gesturing at his guard angrily,
" Tie her first! We are unaware about her motive still."
The guard compelled his order without wasting a single moment. He jumped forward, squatted down to drag Ayra up who finally spoke breaking the silence,
" Wait!! Wait!!! Listen to me first..I really don't have any ill intentions.. Grandpa, listen to me first.."
The man with silver hair frowned upon hearing her words. The way, she called him 'Granda' really moved his heart for a moment but his grumpy, arrogant nature forced him to stay straight on expression.
His voice replied as he watched her getting tied with a chair,
" Your words can be heard only after I have control over your actions. We don't welcome intruder in this mansion."
Ayra stopped protesting when she was getting tied. She believed that after knowing her identity, this man at least couldn't hurt her. Besides she had to know about Cedric that why he was lying to his family all this time.
Grandpa narrowed his eyes at Ayra tightly when he noticed that she had disguised herself as one of his maid. Arms crossed behind his back, he questioned her coldly without taking his eyes off in case she meant harm to him,
" Speak! Who are you?"
Ayra opened and closed her mouth hesitantly. Delaying her time delibaretly to know the truth first, she spoke glancing behind his back and wondering if Cedric was still there or not though he didn't feel like Cedric,
" Tell me, who was with you a while back? Was it Cedric with you?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAyra's words brought shock on his old skinned face. His eyes dilated slightly and an unknown fear appeared on his face, clouded his eyes which turned dark. Maintaining a straight face, he order at his guard calmly who was standing by his side,
" Leave us, alone!!"
The guard looked curious too but he didn't dare to disobey the master and left them alone after closing the door behind cautiously.
Meanwhile...A different scene was happening at the back of the mansion. The familiar face like Cedric was walking aimlessly into the dark forest. His momentum cheerful when he walked and stopped in front of a different path from where an animalistic roar was coming out.
His smirk streched and a deep glaze of satisfaction appeared on his deadly handsome face. He was obsessed in controlling, achieving and most importantly winning. The satisfaction that he felt for controlling a poor thing was divine to his soul.
His footsteps turned slow, clumsy when he approached the animal laying in darkeness. The trees around their place was so dense that it was impossible to look into it without getting closer.
The animal was chained in iron chains along side big stones that it couldn't fly up in the sky. The nose of that animal was bleeding. When it noticed the present of this man, his eyes pulled up to glance down at him hatefully. Hatred boiled through his veins and it wanted to get up but each time, he attempted to move, the chain was cutting his flesh roughly. As a result, it groaned in pain and fell down to lay across the ground.
The man standing in front of him smiled, crunched down to pat its big head slowly. His lips twisted in fake concern, one hand patting on the animals head as he murmured lowly in a deep voice,
" Tsk..Debisa.. It's your fault in the end actually..You had chosen wrong Master for yourself..Look at yourself now..So poor and helpless.."
