Chapter 519: Trick or Treat-I

Dizziness came to attack Elise's head and all of a sudden, she saw the world in front of her danced before her eyes. Before she knew it, Ian had caught her with his arm. A deep frown on his forehead as Elise tried to adjust her blurry vision.

Looking at Ian, Elise shake her head to dispel the dizziness.

"Not now," Ian whispered to her, concern in his voice when seeing Elise exhausted again. "You are tired, let's try it again next time and not now."

"I don't know I felt tired," answered Elise honestly. "I felt alright." She saw Ian pulling out his handkerchief to wipe her palm from the blood and pressed the fabric carefully under her nose.

"It is maybe because you never thought of feeling exhausted that's why you didn't know you felt tired. Your ability must have been spent with you coming to my past and seeing my memory," Ian laid her on the bed but Elise shook her head. "You should rest. I can go and meet that bastard named Emmett."

Elise shook her head and held to his arm, "I won't feel at peace if I don't come with you and my power maybe tired but I am not tired physically," she saw the still frown on Ian's forehead. "I promise, I am not being tough when I reach my limit I will tell you."

Ian stared at her for a couple of second. He didn't want Elise to push herself but he knew what she meant by being uneasy without him. Deep down there was the fear in her that if she keep her eyes off him, he would die, even though that wasn't the case. "Okay but promise me no pushing yourself to the limit. Do you get me?"

Elise held out her little finger, "I promise."

While Elise and Ian head out from the mansion to the Demon named Emmett, Leviathan in the human world was irked and annoyed of finding the small chick. He should be able to tell the chick by the scent but somehow the scent was gone. Did the chick die?

"Tsk, that would be troublesome," Leviathan, who had been sitting like a cat on top of the roof took a step forward when his shadow run toward him.

"Chick... found...." the shadow whispered. At once Leviathan disappeared from his spot, leaving faint evaporation of his black smoke.

"What's wrong, Mr. Maroon?" Came a voice from Maroon's side and the butler turned his eyes to see the women: Harriet, Cynthia, and Esther. The one who asked being Harriet who smiled widely when their eyes met.

After the wedding day, the women decided to go around the shop, taking a break. As first planned, Elise and Ian should have been here but with his master had left from the morning until now, where the sky had turned pitch black, Maroon turned as the chaperone for the ladies. It wasn't something he had planned to do, being the women's guard as they were plenty of strong enough but he had to still keep them under watch, for both their safety and his work.

Maroon noticed how this entire time Harriet had been staring at him. His expression turn emotionless while looking at the woman as he always did. He can't tell them that he had just noticed a great presence of a demon. "I saw a cat," replied Maroon simply. "On the roof."

Harriet can't help but chuckle, "I remember you like cat."

Maroon who stared at her reply had his eyes slightly widening. He only raised his brows while looking at Harriet who appeared to not notice her own slip up. Both Esther and Cynthia had walked before them as they fall back by four steps distance between them.

"Have I told you I like cats?" Maroon questioned Harriet without knowing it was his wife who?he was talking to.

Lilith was perplexed by her own mistake. Having manage to control her expression, she showed a confused look and stared back at Maroon, hoping he would let it slide and think it was his mishearing but her husband was a person who a person who never let a question left unanswered.

"I heard the maids talking. One of them told me when I asked what you like and they answered you love planting in the garden and also cats. I want to ask you why do you plant in the night? I heard the maids often comes and see you planting when it's late," Lilith diverted her answer into a question.

Maroon didn't answer, he picked the brown bags that he had been holding on tighter and answered curtly, "It seems that because of your snooping nose sticking everywhere to places you shouldn't, some maid should be fired tonight."

"You are going to fire them at night? Drive them at night? I didn't know you were so cruel," said Lilith, running as she followed Maroon who had walked before them, shortening the distance between him and the other two women who had walked before him.

A sigh passed by Maroon's lips and he turned his face. Being taller than Harriet, Lilith noticed how short she had gotten being inside the girl's body.

"You don't know anything about me, Miss Harriet," said Maroon. Not only was his voice ice cold but his gaze was bottomless empty. It was a clear different to the gaze he had gave her back when she was still Lilith and even though Lilith accepted this to happen, to feel the sudden difference forming between them ceaselessly hurt her heart.

"I can learn about you," she answered as if giving an offer and a smile on her lips but she was quick to shut down.

"I advise you not to. Not most women who came to me get the ending they wish for. I would prefer it if you continue not to know me. Whatever interest you have to me which I don't know where it stemmed from, it is better if you ignore my presence," Maroon gave Harriet a look before walking off. It wasn't that he was cold or heartless or that he wanted to hurt Harriet. He had promised to stay with one woman his entire life and he was set to see through his promise even if it was breaking whatever attraction women had for him.

Lilith watched Maroon's back as he walked away. His thin presence made him less felt as if one won't know he sat beside them when he had entirely been there.

Deep down, Lilith knew the reason why Maroon had turned cold but her heart felt pained with his words. "I'm a fool. I thought I was prepared for this pain," she whispered to herself. With the distance growing between them both psychically and emotions, she sighed, "I should accept this sooner. Less pain for the better."

Lilith made her way toward the three people as she realized she was falling behind. Having just resurrected to Harriet's body, she lack the current knowledge of the time and being lost was the last thing she wanted. However, she suddenly noticed an eye looking for her. She turned, seeing Thomas standing on the narrow ally between two building.

What was he doing here?

While keeping an eye on the three people who she had came with, Lilith made a small trip and swiftly moved to the ally.

"I thought you shouldn't be here," Lilith said, her eyes turning red once she stood before Thomas.

At her question, Thomas appeared displeased. "Wherever I go is my choice. You may think you are powerful, lady but remember we have the leash on your neck," his hand reached up to the side of her face, "And I am sure you will not like it if I break this magic I cast on you and kill you."

Lilith's eyes narrowed at once she swatted Thomas's hand and stared sharply before holding the man's neck and slammed his back to the wall, causing dust to break from the concrete walls.

Lilith pushed her hand through her hair, "You don't seem to know this, Thomas. But my leash is not on your hand. I am not your dog nor am I below you. I have learned that in our group, the strongest is the head which is Caleb, but he is less power when compared to the Dark Sorcerer Lord. But you—" Lilith slammed Thomas to the wall again, "—are never and will never be stronger than me. Do you get that?"

"You don't think I can kill you now?" Thomas threatened, it didn't sit well to him that Lilith, a woman, had pushed him to the wall and the fact he wasn't able to do anything about it.

Lilith smiled, "You can try but you will never be able to do it. I recommend you to not do it."

Thomas and Lilith stared at each other for a good one minute. The man tried to push himself from the wall and released Lilith's hold on his neck but as she wasn't able to do anything, his jaw ticked. "Fine!" He yelled through his ground teeth.

Lilith yanked Thomas from the wall and pushed him to the wall, "Now tell me what you want—" Lilith's eyes widened when she caught side of the brownish red hair from the edge of the wall, about to come toward her side. It was Maroon!
