"You know I lost your photos along with my mobile after it got destroyed," Viktor said with a slight grimace as Umilia looked at him with a strange look.
"What? I know I promised to keep it safe but don't worry, nobody else got it. It's just gone forever," Viktor shrugged as he said in a reassuring tone.
Umilia sighed and said with an amused smile, "It's not that. You took those photos with just great enthusiasm, and I felt it a pity that you lost all of them."
"Oh, we both know that I can take those kinds of photos again any ti," Viktor caressed her face as he said with a wink, making Umilia look away with an embarrassed look.
Four hundred ters away, the man with scarlet red eyes was hiding behind a building with a balaclava mask on his face that only revealed his mouth and a pair of eyes.
He seed to be heavily panting as if he dodged a bullet, though his hands were continuously shivering, and he was holding his own throat for so reason as if he was experiencing so kind of uncomfortableness.
"Haa…no…why…why…" He mumbled as he banged his hands on the wall behind him, sharp nails slowly growing out of his fingertips that looked sharp enough to even cut through a block of wood.
"Please stop…aarghhh…" The man seed to be suffering from so agony and pain as his long sharp nails pierced into the concrete.
His ears perked when he suddenly heard soone's footsteps and looked to the side to see a woman in her thirties dressed in corporate clothes walking with a bag in her hand.
His eyes narrowed and quivered the mont he laid his eyes on her…his nose twitching with just slling her scent from fifty ters away. At that mont, the light in his eyes changed to a blood-thirsty one as if he had lost all sanity.
At this ti, the street was quite empty for these two though the woman didn't seem to be aware of the man's presence as she was busy texting soone on her phone.
The man stepped out of the alley as he silently began to follow her with a restless pace, slowly and slowly getting closer to her.
It was like he was stalking his prey and was looking around with vigilant eyes to see if anybody else was nearby.
The scent of her blood seed to make the man's mind go crazy even without touching her. It was as if he was suffering from eternal thirst and finally found the drop of water he was looking for.
He finally couldn't take it, and with a single leap, he reached right behind the woman and covered her mouth as he lifted her up easily and ran back to the small alley he was hiding in.
"HNMMMM!!" The woman waved her hands frantically with a shocked and confused expression. She desperately tried to call for help, but the man's grip was too strong, and her whimpers were all dying down and could only helplessly watch as she got taken into a dark alley.
And before she knew it, a pair of sothing as sharp as knives pierced into her neck brutally, making her cry in pain, unable to even let out a single shout of despair.
The man was feeding on her blood so eagerly as if he found the nectar of life, though he was only draining away the life of the woman quickly as her body began to fall limp, her eyes slowly becoming languid, no longer struggling to break free from his grip.
The man continued to gulp down her blood continuously, making her face pale and her eyes slowly lose their light.
The woman's body finally beca entirely limp as she dropped to the ground lifeless, and the man licked all the blood from his lips, smiling with a satisfied expression.
"How tasty…I can't believe it…hehe…" Before he knew it, he was already tasting for more.
However, a minute ago, Viktor's brows suddenly pulled together as he stopped and turned around, only to see an empty street.
Umilia also stopped and turned around with a look of confusion, wondering whether Viktor sensed sothing for him to look behind with a look of suspicion.
"What is it, Viktor?"
Viktor narrowed his eyes and shook his head as he said, "Nothing. Maybe it was just a feeling. Let's go."
Umilia didn't sense anything odd near her and also thought that maybe Viktor just had a feeling, but only she knew that his instincts were rarely wrong.
Just as they were about to reach the Snow Mansion, Umilia told Viktor, "Today, you have to sleep in your room."
"Eh…Why is that? You don't want your husband's warmth?" Viktor asked in a confused tone.
Umilia slightly laughed as she said, "It's not that I don't want to. But you have to talk things out with Taya. She will be ho soon."
"Oh, I was going to talk to her anyway. It seed as if she had sothing important to tell , and I also had sothing to tell her, you know. Or did you tell her about what happened?" Viktor asked curiously.
Umilia shook her head as she said, "No. I decided that we both could tell her together so that at least you would be there to help her process all this. Now I will enter ho first. You should change into your Dorian Grey disguise."
Viktor looked ahead and saw the beautiful half-lit snow mansion behind the huge walls and nodded as he gave her a quick kiss on the lips, "Alright, I will be there soon."
After Umilia left, he quickly modified his body shape to match the slim body type of his Dorian persona and removed his reversible jacket, and put it on inside out before entering through the large gates.
However, he was surprised to see Taya's car in the garage and wondered if she was ho early and so eagerly entered the mansion to see her. The mansion was very quiet, and it seed to him that all or most of them, including Tiana and Sayana, must have gone to bed or were busy inside their rooms.
He went up the first floor and checked out Taya's room, only to be surprised to not see her there.
'Did she take another car or a taxi? How strange…' Viktor thought as he shook his head and decided to wait in his room till she ca back ho.
However, he suddenly smiled just as he was about to enter his room.
