Anna felt her blood being soaked and face leaving its color when she heard this voice again, from her back. It was none other than Chris Steve, the demon whom she did not want to et. Though Anna knew it is impossible to avoid him but all she wanted was ti.
He appeared out of nowhere and that too on a family dinner?!?!
Was he a family till yet?! A big no for it! He was not family because they are not engaged until properly. there was no ring on her fingers after all. It was just a fixed marriage bye mouth.
"Oh, not at all. We were just starting. Co, sit." Grandfather Walker said cheerfully but in return, he received a sharp gaze from Anna. Her eyes have already turned cold after seeing this guy here. But Chris ignored the awkward atmosphere and instead, he took the chair out beside Anna and sat as if he was not invited, he was already a mber of the family.
"It has been a long ti, Mrs. Walker." Chris gently greeted Marrie, but all she did was nodding her head. In her entire life, she never likes this person. Although Liam liked him at an early stage later he also felt that this person was not the right choice for their daughter.
He was a devil, A DEMON! But he keeps his real self shielded from everyone, behind his smile which was almost every ti lingering on his face. If Anna had the ability, she might have snatched it and give him so much pain that he forgets what it feels to smile.
But Anna she knew she has no power right now. She can not do anything, just to listen and see his face!
Everyone knew his true self when things happened three years ago. Those things and happenings can never be forgotten by any one of them.
While eating, most of the ti it was grandfather talking to them. Anna just ate in silence because she was the one who was least interested to talk in front of Chris.
Anna was utterly disappointed in her grandfather, even after knowing, he called him here is nothing but upsetting for her.
But then she heard Grandfather Walker bring another topic up. "Shall we announce Anna's engagent now? She is already seventeen." Anna looked at him with her annoyed face.
But on another hand, Mother Marrie sieged Liam's hand, indicating him to say sothing about this. She does not want Anna to get engaged now. Liam looked at her face and into her eyes and understood her.
Clearing his throat, he said, "I think it is still early for her. Let her studies be completed first." Liam kept it short and simple and told his aning behinds his words clearly.
Though Grandfather wanted to say sothing but this ti grandmother Walker spoke up first, "What do you think Chris?"
Anna raised her brows when she heard this. Why was her grandmother interested to know his opinion?
Chris kept his smile constant and then spoke, "I think Anna is still young. Let her blossom first and then we surely can go for the announcent." and then she saw grandmother's acknowledgnt about what he said.
But she understood her hidden motive. She wanted to hear Chris saying himself and to also make him rember that she is a young girl now, he can't cut her feathers.
Her grandmother was a sharp lady after all. Anna saw her parents also sighing in relief because they never wanted thus engagent to co out. It was their mistake which she was suffering from.
"Alright. Let Anna complete her studies first. So, this ti the only crowning ceremony will be done." Grandfather declared and Anna kept her constant face. She neither smiled nor frowned this ti. Well, no one took notice of her also, so it does not matter.
As expected, the topic was shifted back to another topic but then Anna received a squeeze on her thigh by Chris but Anna slapped his hands.
"Anna, tell this. Are you ready to take over this crowning ceremony? It is a big event and you have to be strong ntally too." Sarah knew Anna is strong after all, she is a Walker.
But it is possible that as her age is not of that being crowned. Anna will be the youngest mber to be crowned in their history.
Anna passed her grandmother a warm smile. She knew her grandmother was a little tense. By being crowned as the heir, she was exposed to all types of danger that were possible in this field. Risky just by going out.
Soon, she had to enter the underworld too but it is also risky for her age.
"Do not worry grandmother. I'm happy that I received this opportunity to be crowned. I will do my best and will not disappoint you at any cost." This ti, Anna held confidence in her voice. She was no longer the weak girl but on the row to be a mature lady!
"I'm happy to know that. You are going to shine and I have that feeling in myself."
But sowhere Marrir was a little tensed. She does not know that Anna had already received training under Liam. Who will tell her this!? No one because Anna knew that all she will be receiving beatings from her!
"Um... Anna, can we tell and announce your real nake too?" This ti, Anna's hand stopped in the middle way of eating and her grip on the fork tightened.
Her real na? ans her real self?
She wanted to say a big no, but Anna knew it was against rules. Her na is not, 'Anna'
It was just a coverup for her as her second life in the school.
"Hhm.," she answered in a normal tone which made them hear that they can. Now, grandfather turned to Chris again,
"Chris, when can we et all your family mbers?"
