wizard wife? p.23

Harper was walking in the hall when she heard someone near by. She walked near to the people that she heard and listened to them quietly. 1

"Dad, what is happening to me?" Sound like Justin. She peeked at them and it really was Justin and his father.2

"What happened?" Mr. Russo asked. 3

"Uh... I don't know. Harper and I was dancing and suddenly I lost control of myself and wanted to suck her blood." Justin replied.4

"Did your fangs showed up?"5

"Yes," Justin whispered. Hearing this made Harper breathe hard and nervous and afraid at the same time. Why did this twist so much? 6

"Oh my! I never thought that this could happen again." Mr. Russo blustered.7

"What could happen?" Justin was really serious in his voice. 8

"Well... the 113th generation of our family, Lang Russo, which is our great, great, great... grandfather, is also an inheritance vampire. His fangs appeared early just like you. That's because your enemy is near." 9

"What? You mean there is another vampire?"10

"Yes! That's mean. Two vampires or something got the same woman of their destiny, so Harper got another vampire who is looking for her. Your vampire self is telling you to hurry up and tell Harper the truth."11

"Dad, I can't... She'll hate me. And I don't want her to get hurt." Justin said in a sad tone.12

"Awe... why is a full vampire and a full wizard had to be so weak in love. Don't you love Harper?"13

"Well I do. I..." 14

"Then you have to. If you don't. You don't know what is going to happen to this world. No matter what, you have to tell her. The world is depending on you." Mr. Russo stated. 15

"I'll try." Justin said and sighed heavily and walked turned around. Harper walked quietly away from them and hid herself. Some how she was really afraid of Justin and anxious feeling in the air. She was still panting and tried to calm herself down. Was she heard them saying for real or just a dream? She couldn't believe what she heard. Justin is a vampire and a wizard. So what? She was madly in love with him, but why she was so afraid of him? So she was the only who can help him? 16

Harper took a deep breathe and walked out of her hiding place and walked toward Justin's room. She fanned herself with her hands and knocked on his door. 17

"Come in..." Justin answered. Harper took another deep breathe and let it out and walked in. 18

His room was dark. He only used the lamp. He was laying on his bedroom sofa with his face looking up on the ceiling. He turned and looked at Harper.19

"It's you... I told you not to get close to me. Why don't you listen to me?" He said and looked away.20

"I.... was just bringing your jacket back. thank you." She said. She took the jacket out and put it on the stool near to the door. 21

She wanted to turn around and walks out of the room, but her heart wanted to stay. She didn't know what to do. She looked around the room and saw the head statue of Justin that she made.22

"Wuah!! you still kept the statue I made for you!" She said in a surprised voice. She ran to touch the statue. Justin sat up from the sofa and stared at her.23

"You have return my jacket, now can you go?" He said. Harper turned around to look at him.24

"Why are you so mean and cruel?" Harper asked in an angry voice. Justin got up from the sofa and walked to her. He stayed closed to her.25

"So your decision is not going to go?" He asked one more time. Harper looked at him in the eyes for a moment and studied his face. She wanted to go out of his room, but also not wanting to go. She turned her face away from him and crossed her arms.26

"I am not going to anywhere unless you tell me the reason!" She declared. Justin sighed and walked a few stepped away from her.27

"All right. that's fine." He asserted. Suddenly he turned around and pulled Harper to him really fast that made her screamed because of shocked. He picked her up fast to his bed and laid her down and locked her with his arms holding her tight. 28

"What are you doing? Let go of me!" She protested.29

"You choiced to stay with me right?" He asked her! 30

"All right! I am going now. Just let go of me!" 31

"It's too late." Justin said like he was a devil.32

"What are you going to do to me. Suck my blood?" Harper asked. Justin became quiet and his hand turned soft and let go of her. 33

"You knew..." He said in a low voice with a sighed. 34

"I just heard you and your father is talking about it."35

"Do you afraid and hate me now?" Justin asked. Harper was deciding her choice in her mind.36

"Of-course I hate you and afraid of you." She answered and sat up. Those words broke the room into silent for a momment. 37

"I thought so." Justin said finally. He looked away with his sad face. Harper leaned to him and kissed his cheek.38

"I hated you for not telling me. I am afraid that you will not love me anymore." She said. Justin turned to her with his face changed into a new expression.39

"No matter what happened... I want to be with you." Continued Harper. Justin was so happy that he pulled her to him and hugged her. 40

"I am so sorry. I am deeply, madly in love with you. I was so selfish." Justin said. Harper rested her head on his chest for a moment and looked up to him.41

"Then you will not leave me right?" She asked.42

"Don't you trust me?" Harper was surprised by the question. Harper shook her head and smiled. She put her head against his chest again wishing that this would not be a dream. 43
