Slave To The Darkness 188 188 The Struggle Begins

"Sorry to disturb you, Sir but there was a call from your aunt. She demands to see Liliana." Royce appeared in the doorway at the office.

"Thank you for letting me know. I will make sure to ignore her. Since you are still here. Make sure that she does not enter the house and if she asks where we are, you are to say that you do not know." Cedric picked up the vial next to the one he was holding and sighed. 'I cannot let her drink this one today but tomorrow she can continue both memories.'

"As you wish. I will inform the workers that is what we are doing." Royce thought for a moment, "Sir if you are okay with it… I have decided to stay working for you. I have nothing to lose but everything to gain. I quite like my life here."

"When we return she will know how to do it properly. You will survive and become one of her people then but I will not tell her. I will allow you to let her know yourself. I am not going to say anything. It would be better for you to tell her personally." Cedric smiled and looked at Royce.

"Yes, of course. I will be the one to inform her. I will do it shortly after your return. Is there anything else you need me to do?" Royce watched Cedric after he bowed.

"Can you and Abigail prepare the guest house I am going to be bringing a girl back with us and please prepare two baby gifts." Cedric watches at Royce's expression as it does not change.

"I will get on that, Sir. I will ask Abigail to help me in the process. Mrs. Eva will be happy that you are being so kind." Royce waited to see if there was anything else.

"That will be all Royce. We will be having a lot of guests and a lot of bloodshed." Cedric then disappears from Royce's sight and goes to the s.h.i.+p. He appears in the kitchen and places one of the vials down.

Claude looked at Cedric and sighs. "Her memories are trying to force their way out so you will escalate them to keep her from harm. I like that you are going to be doing that both are considered dangerous but I get it."

"Yeah. I don't like this any more than you do but you know the significance of Nao." Cedric looks at Claude smiling.

"d.a.m.n you admitted it, not me." Claude shook his head and saw the vial on the table. "You have a lot to think about but giving her that memory is almost cruel."

"Why would it be cruel Claude?" Yuki stepped out and her eyes were s.h.i.+ning red and her hair was back to its usual silver colour.

Sephira walked behind Yuki. She watched the guys be slightly tense. 'Hmmm, it seems that they do not want her to know this.' She walked to the table and held out her hand. "The vial."

Cedric was a little surprised but handed it to Sephira. "I can only give her a little bit of the memory. It will start with before the soiree."

Sephira took the vial to Yuki and sat down on the couch. "I will not force you to sit alone."

Claude picked up Sephira. "No, you can not be around when she goes into this memory. If it was any other memory I would be okay with it but not this one." He plucks the vial out and hands it to Yuki before carrying her to the kitchen table.

"Sephira, eat the food you and Claude cooked. I will be fine." Yuki popped the cork off and drank the blood then collapsed on the couch.

Cedric walked over to her and pulled her into his arms. "I will be here for when you awake and you will be thirsty."

~~Memory Begins~~

Yuki stood at the door of the house waiting. "Mother, you said that Cedric would be here right?" She was getting impatient and practically hopping on her toes.

"Amaris, I have told you that he will be here. Calm down. Today is an important day for you. You are being asked to change your first human. This is a very important ceremony. I just hope that it goes as planned." Luna looks at Ryan in fear.

"I understand your concern, Darling. I too am concerned but she will be safe. I will make sure that the blood of those that are going to be changed is clean. Isn't that right Shadow Sophia?" Ryan faces the door not saying anything else.

Sophia steps out and looks at Yuki and bows. "I will make sure that you are safe my Princess. I will be in the shadows so you will not be able to see me but I will see you." She bows and disappears again.

Yuki sighs, "I do not get why changing humans is such a big deal. It seems like more of a ha.s.sle to me." Yuki hears a car pull in and perks back up.

Cedric knocks on the door before entering. "Good Evening. Shall we head out now?" He offered Yuki his arm.

"We will see you there. We are double-checking a few things so we will teleport over. Look after our daughter." Ryan gave a stern look at Cedric and watched as he bowed and guided Yuki out of the room. "Such a ha.s.sle indeed."

Cedric walks Yuki to the car and opens the door. After he gets in he checks out her face and kisses her on the cheek. "I know that you are starving but I am not allowed to feed you. You will drink my blood as part of the ceremony."

Yuki's eyes show her despair. "I hate this. I get that I need to starve but that does not mean I should attack you and then turn a lowly human." She pouts and looks out the front of the window.
