Chapitre 32: YOU CALL HER SOFT?
He picked up his phone and dialed his friend, who was a doctor, well known in human society, though the person wasn't a human himself. Checking Vilian's body heat while the rings went on, he saw her gasping from time to time though she was unconscious. Astrel was confused, not knowing whether was it because of the earlier incidents and the fear that triggered her this way or was it the same thing that he had witnessed in having difficulty in breathing during the dining they joined in the Moondale restaurant.
"I'll share a location with you. Come right there immediately."
"Jeez~ Aster!!! No greetings at all?"
"I've got no time for all of that. The location has been sent. Come over. It's urgent." Said Astrel and end the call before Josh, his friend could utter another word. Five minutes later, a knock was heard on the Frost Mansion's main entrance door.
Astrel teleported to the down floor. The main door opened on its own. Of course, it was one of his doings. Seeing Astrel in the Frost mansion made the man walk in-furrow his eyebrows.
"Yoh Aster! What's with you in the Frost mansion?" Asked Josh. Astrel ignored his question and said,
"Third floor, last room." He said it and vanished in the thin air, teleporting back to Vilian's room leaving Josh all on his own. He sighed and could only wish for power just like his best friend, but went up in his vampire speed sensing the smell and the sound where they were.
Astrel went to stand near the girl and took a blanket to cover the unconscious Vilian, who was still in her pale night gown. Done with it, he went and sat on the couch. After a minute or so, the door to the room opened making his entrance, Josh walked in observing his surroundings. Lustrous hair was woven with strands of auburn. Shades that gave out from his medium-dark locks, a pair of reddish-brown irises that flickered from red to brown as he used his supernatural power to reach the room. He had a well-toned figure and a hollowed jawline that made him look more like a model.
Walking straight towards the bed that was situated in the room's mid-wall corner, he took a look at the girl, who was lying on the bed, well tucked in a comfy blanket. If she only wasn't gasping from time to time, one would mistakenly assume that the girl was sleeping peacefully.
Sitting on the edge of the bed he leaned forward and checked the girl's temperature, touching her forehead and her temples which were all normal, but beads of sweat forming were visible on her pale face. He didn't need a stethoscope to check her heart rate. The heartbeats were beating unevenly. For some unknown reason, Astrel didn't like when Josh was handling her. Opening a black suitcase he bought along with him, he took out a syringe and added a colorless liquid to it which made Astrel frown.
"What is the need of injecting that into her?" He questioned Josh who was seriously doing his job, while Astrel was sitting on the couch resting his legs on the coffee table leisurely.
"Seems like she has some internal problem in her body, which might also be a reason for her to fall in such a state, so it's better to use this without causing any harm. I'd say it's better if she goes for a check-up without further delays, which might cause her to fall into a dire situation." He said thoughtfully. "What made her fall into this situation, Aster?" He asked, injecting the syringe into Vilian's neck and then dabbing a cotton ball, bandaging the now injected area.
"She has seen the dark creature," said Astrel. Josh gave him a surprised look.
"Impossible. Aster, she's a human." He said, resuming his work on picking up some of the drugs and rearranging his suitcase."How come she's able to see the creature? What exactly happened?" He asked, unbelievably, walking back to where Astrel was, and sitting beside him.
"As per her words, a dark creature strangled her, while several other dark creatures were there surrounding her bed. I had to use my spells." He said, nonchalantly as if it was nothing.
"Ohh~ It's very unusual for you to save someone, that too a human girl. Oh, I guess she isn't a human girl. Wait... No... Whatever." He grinned and said, "I see she looks more like a doll. Perhaps, the girl was able to melt the cold-hearted devil?" Josh spoke up, trying to tease Astrel playfully.
"I assume, tagging along with my brother you've turned to be more like him." He said, which made Josh roll his eyes in annoyance. He thought he was the one going to tease Astrel, but not the other way around.
"What!! I rarely stay with him, man." Said Josh pouring his lips."So... What are we gonna do?" He asked seriously, not knowing what to do about a mere human girl who has got to know about the dark underworld. Be it a small mistake, every other creature might come after the cause.
"Well, things are sorted out, so there's nothing to worry about," said Astrel, nonchalantly scrolling down the screen, going through the news.
"Oh... Then, I guess the problems are solved if you say so, but do you think the compelling won't muddle her mind in the future?" Asked Josh, scratching his nape.
"Who compelled whom?" Josh felt like falling into a maze was better than trying to communicate with this man.
"Didn't you?" He asked confusedly, not knowing whether to cry or to laugh.
"You assuming yourself doesn't mean, it's gonna be the right thing, Josh."
"Ok. Whatever. You haven't compelled her, but what if she says this to someone or does something, won't it be a problem?"
"She's wise enough to not do that. Not at least under my sight." Astrel replied, looking at the sleeping figure. "When will she wake up, Josh?"
Josh went in walked towards her and checked her, "As her breathing seems to be steady and normal, which means the drug has started to work, probably within an hour or two, she'll be able to be awake." He said and started to observe the room. For an elite girl's room, her room looked more simple, he thought and came to stand in front of the study table. There were varieties of novels that caught his eyes. Josh went through all the titles of the books. "Looks like she's more interested in fantasy and romance novels." He murmured, which caught Astrel's ears. "So... Aster, aren't you gonna tell me who she is?" Asked Josh, wiggling his eyebrows and looking at Astrel.
"Demus' daughter." He replied curtly.
"Speak up, bro." If the person wasn't Josh by now he would be lying lifeless.
"Not..." He was about to ignore it but turned to see Vilian murmuring something. She looked uneasy about something as she was holding to her neck. Astrel went to check her, "Vilian, it's alright..." He said, patting her head, soothing her hair, while giving assuring words to calm her down. Which calmed her sooner than he thought, but didn't let go of his hand, which was on hers.
Unsure of what to do in such a situation, he sat on the edge of the bed patiently and waited for her fist to loosen, while he looked at the once panicked girl sleeping peacefully holding on to his hand. She looked too vulnerable.
Josh felt his eyes pop out in surprise at Astrel's gesture towards the girl. He had grown up knowing him, and he had never shown such sentiments or gestures towards anyone. Astrel was the type of man who wouldn't bother giving a helping hand to a dying man, let alone lend someone a shoulder to cry, but here he was soothing her. Moreover, it was a mere human. He didn't like mingling with the humans unless they had high connections in the business world and were useful to him.
Astrel snapped his fingers towards Josh, making him snap his head towards him. There was no doubt in his mind that the cold vampire had taken an interest in the girl, but this was a human."How long does an inside affect a human?" Astrel asked in an authoritative tone with his piercing gaze.
"The deeper the incident has affected, the longer it lasts." He said boringly, knowing what was he talking about. "The girl looks soft, so, normally, it might have triggered her badly."
"Huh! Do you call her soft?" asked Astrel annoyingly.
