An unknown deadly glint flickered in Everly's eyes and knowing that if she does not do anything immediately, she would probably pass out, her eyes dimmed dangerously.
"Asshole!" She managed to mutter and furiously kick the unknown person in the crotch with the back of her feet.
She grabbed the handkerchief and threw it away, then turned to look at the young man, who was growling in pain with his hands clutching his crotch.
"Quite terrible of you to sneak up on me like that." She lazily rubbed her face and glanced around the compound.
Her eyes fell on a bat lying against the wall.
"Well, it looks like I have to kill you. You filthy people just won't leave me alone."
She chuckled and walked towards the bat.
She grabbed a hold of it and returned to the young man.
She squatted down to his level and grabbed him by the chin.
"Why were you following me?" She questioned.
The young man with black eyes and brown-colored hair stared at her, confusion filling his eyes.
"W-what are you?" He stuttered, and Everly drew her head back in a bit of perplexity.
"Hmm, what are you talking about? I am the one who should be asking you that question. Why were you following me? Did you want to molest me?"
She asked, and when she got no answer from the young man, a cold expression replaced the neutral look on her face.
"You know-" She started as she rose to her feet."-If you don't answer me, I believe that I am going to really hurt you badly with this weapon in my hand."
"In case you didn't know, I am very experienced in this. I have hurt quite a lot of people like you; in fact, I have sent some of them to... hell."
She laughed in amusement, and a furious look ensued on her face the next moment.
"It seems you really won't talk. Actually, that's fine because I don't mind HURTING YOU!" She yelled the last part of her sentence and lifted the bat.
She flung it, using it to mercilessly hit the young man on the head.
The young man fell to the floor, and blood began to ooze out of his head.
"Will you talk now?" She questioned with a smile on her face, and the young man stared at her with fear and disbelief in his eyes.
It was as though he was staring at something that was making him submissive.
There was something he was seeing, but he couldn't spit it out. He slowly reached up his bloody hand that clutched his bleeding head and grabbed Everly's jacket.
Everly glanced at his hand and with disgust in her eyes, he slapped his hand away,
"Tsk, this is so boring!" She rolled her eyes and threw the bat away. "Don't follow me again, or else I might actually kill you next time."
She scoffed and walked out of the compound.
Luckily for her, she managed to flag down a cab, leaving the young man to stare at the sky in deep fear.

The huge door to Lucius' mansion pulled open, and two men dragging a young man in a terrible state walked in.
They dragged him towards the living room, where Lucius and Logan were seated together.
"My Lord." They bowed deeply in respect to Lucius, who turned to face them.
The moment his gaze fell on them, a shocking glint flashed in his eyes.
"What happened to him?" He questioned.
The two men lifted their heads, and one of them proceeded to explain.
"My lord, we are not sure what happened, but we found him in this state. We tried to get him to talk, but he wouldn't speak"
"He just looks at us with a strange look in his eyes." He explained, and Lucius, who couldn't understand what could have happened, furrowed his brows.
"Do you know who did this to him?" He asked.
"No, my lord." The young man shook his head.
"I see. Take him into the sick room first and get Gomez to treat him. I want to know what happened to him." He ordered, and the two young men nodded before carrying the injured one into the sick room.
Lucius crossed his legs, and a deep frown settled on his face.
"Father, isn't he the one that you sent after that caregiver?" Logan abruptly asked
"Yes, he is."
"Then, do you think that something could have occurred while he was-"
"Logan, are you insane?" Lucius questioned him, not giving him a chance to finish his words.
"No. I just thought that since he ended up in this state, then something must have happened-"
"You think that a mere human can hurt the protector of the royal vampire family?" In disbelief, Lucius inquired.
"No! That is impossible." Logan shook his head.
"Then what are you implying? How disgraceful of you to even think that! Our adversary must have done this, and I will find out who in particular" Lucius declared, and Logan nodded his head in agreement before standing up from the sofa.
He proceeded upstairs to his own room within the mansion and stepped inside.
He looked over at his king-size bed to see his entertainment seated half-naked on the bed.
A smirk formed on his face, and he tilted his head to one side.
"I'm not here to have fun with a lowlife like you; I just need blood, that's all." He smiled, and the girl slowly nodded her head.
"Yes, your highness." She kneeled on the bed, and Logan walked up to her.
He grabbed a hold of her chin, and his eyes switched to a red color.
His fangs elongated, and he glanced at the girl's pumping neck.
"I'm pretty sure your blood won't be tasty at all, but it will do. After all, I am not allowed to have human blood. am forbidden from doing so." He scoffed in annoyance.
The girl breathed heavily and swallowed once she felt Logan's hot breath on her neck.
"Relax. I'm not going to drain you." He scowled at her after feeling her body trembling, and the girl furiously nodded her head.
'My apologies." She apologized, and Logan glared at her before pinning her down on the bed.
He moved in and licked a particular spot on her neck before his fangs pierced her skin the next moment.
A long, shocking gasp fled the lady's mouth, having not expected it to sting so much.
"Y-your highness…" She stuttered once she began to feel dizzy. "P-please stop." She pleaded, but Logan, who wouldn't listen, held her hand even more tightly and continued to suck her blood.
"Your highness, please stop. It's enough..." she begged, but Logan didn't listen.
He continued, and the only time he snapped back to his senses was when she passed out.
He retracted his fangs and licked off the blood on her neck.
"Hmm…passed out already." He shook his head in disappointment and got off her.
He adjusted his suit and ran his fingers through his blonde hair.
"What a disappointment!" He stormed out of the room and ordered the maids to take care of the girl.
"A vampire's blood could never compare to fresh human blood." He sighed as he began to make his way downstairs. "Such a shame that we are forbidden from having one." He clicked his tongue and made his way out of the building, ready to return to his own mansion.
