His Cure

**

Next Day.

_ Tuesday.

..

*Ding Dong!!!*the door bell sounded loudly from downstairs.

The ear blasting rhyme penetrates into Beatrice’s ears deeply.

She groaned and slapped the sun that perturbs her face away.

*Ding Dong!!!*

“Fuck this. Who the hell is out there this early?”she grunts and moved out of the blanket.

She gripped her head in her palms and grunts.

Why is she feeling so much pains in her head?

Did something happened the other night?

But, why can’t she remember anything?

*Ding Dong!!!!!!*

“Ahhhhhhh.. go to hell!”she yelled.

Who could that impudent individual be that he or she is hitting the door bell so loudly like that?

It almost seem like the action was going on in the room next to her’s.

She got down from the bed and yawned into her palm.

She wore her slippers and rubbed her eyes tiredly.

“I am not a maid in this house. Why did I have to be getting the door all the time?”she rolled her eyes as she exits the room.

She passed by Gregory’s room and a memory flashed inside her brain.

She furrowed her brows and held on to the railings of the stairs as she descended it down.

“I could be a murderer.”the word resounded in her head and the silly smile on his face plays around with her sanity.

She pulled the door opened with her eyes half – closed.

“How may I help you?”she sneezed before opening her eyes fully.

“You look more beautiful when you’re just waking up.”

“Alyssa?!!!!”her eyes popped out of their sockets.

She immediately slammed the door closed.

She wasn’t expecting her to be there.

“Ooof.. come on, don’t be shy, Beatrice.”she cachinnated and placed a soft knock on the door.

Well, dang this!

She could imagine how ugly she looks right now.

She arranged her disheveled hair and coughed before opening the door.

“Hi, Alyssa. Sorry, I was just a bit shocked.”she grinned a more welcoming smile at her.

“Aww, aren’t you just so cute?”Alyssa smiled.

“Haha, I will take that as a flatter from you, miss Alyssa. I’m not close to you when it comes to beauty.”she laughed nervously.

“Why the ‘Miss?’. It makes me feel so old. We look the same age so treat me like a friend or a sister.”Alyssa pecked her cheeks before scurrying inside the house.

Beatrice pursed her lips and scoff.

She shut the door and turned back but Alyssa was out of sight.

Phew!

She went to her room and moved to the bed to get some more sleep.

..

Alyssa stepped inside Gregory’s room without a knock and chuckles at his sight.

“Just you and standing by the window, with a cup of coffee in your hand, and with your other hand in your pocket. You enjoy that a lot, don’t you?”

Gregory didn’t find her entrance unexpected.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

He had called her to come help in packing to his mansion in the city and this is not the first time she would be barging into his room unannounced.

“I just happen to like coffee a lot.”he spun around and smiled.

“.. just as you like yellow.”he downed his drink.

She rolled her eyes and straightened her hair with her hands.

“So, where do we start with the packing?. I mean.. I’m sure you will have quite a lot of stuffs at your other mansion and you could easily order for new things so what’s up with all this packing stuff?”

“You would not be helping me with the packing but her.”

Alyssa tilts her head to the side and pouts.

“Her?. Seems you like HER a lot, Gregory, don’t you?. What you replied to Jennifer’s post yesterday was true then.”

Jennifer had revealed their dads’ plan to engage them together the other night.

It served as a whirlwind but it went down quickly too – With just a reply from Gregory.

‘True, our fathers wants us together but they don’t get to define what Love is for us. I’m in love with Beatrice, and I hope you will move on, Jennifer.’

“Nah. You and Harry know me too well.”

“Then why are you doing this?”Alyssa questioned with raised brows.

“I don’t know. No, it all started with Amelia. Now, I’m going to bring what she has forever been fearful of into reality.”he went to sit on the chair.

Alyssa turned to his direction.

“You’re going to take over your father’s properties?”

“Yes, I’ve decided to do that. She pushed me into this hellhole, after all. It’s only normal for me to let her have a taste of what hell is also.”

Alyssa giggled.

“This coming months would be so thrilling. Now, that is fun! I like that ideology. Solve hell with hell. This is going to be hella hot.”her eyes glowed in euphoria.

“You’ve been too quiet in the past months. I’m happy you’re finally coming back from your grave. It is time to let them know who the prick is.”she cheered on.

“I am not a prick.”he frowned.

“Well, you’re a good asshole, Gregory.”she taunted him.

“By the way, her stuffs shouldn’t be that much so why does she need a helping hand?”

“She doesn’t know we are moving out today.”he retorts.

Alyssa gasps.

“Now, you’re the bad boy!!”

“Besides, wouldn’t it be nice to have another person around her when packing up?.”

Alyssa peered her gaze at him keenly.

“Perhaps, you had a fight with her?”she hunched.

Gregory looked at her and scoffs.

“I’m a gentleman.”he raised his hands up in the air.

“Geez, Gregory. I know how you are. What have you done to that innocent lady now?”

“I did nothing, for real. I just scared her away with the talks of me being a murderer vampire.”he chuckled.

Alyssa snorts and shook her head.

“I mean, it was a bit fun. You should see how scared she was. She passed out due to that also.”he laughed.

Alyssa stepped closer to him and smacked his head with a glare.

“I will hate you if you hurt that lady. She looks too peaceful for you to want to be pissing her off.”

“Huh?. She does?. Well, she sure yaps a lot and I do not like that.”
