Chapter 34

Author's POV:

Mid night,

Seth was still in the club sitting in his cabin alone, he was not all alone though, Vanessa was right outside the room.

His mind was in storm while she stood there not knowing what she was going to do.... Was she hallucinating thinking he needs someone right now?

Seth gulped his drink, he didn't care if he got drunk or not. He just hated today.

Vanessa got in the room without knocking this time, he just ignored it taking another sip of the hard alcohol. His heart was burning.

Vanessa noticed his table was filled with Alcohol, some empty some new. She stayed silent for a second.

Seth just kept trying to calm his rage.

Vanessa poured another glass, this caught Seth's attention. She clearly noticed his questioning gaze.

She leaned against the table, she whispered, "I had a hard day too.... Sorry, for borrowing your liquor...." She took a sip from glass.

She hated it at first, she had giving up on alcohol a long ago. Today she didn't wanted to leave this man alone. He clearly needed someone, she could feel it. But she also knows he won't admit it, she was not programmed to ignore someone's pain and loneliness.

Her inner self warned, "He is not same as us... he doesn't feel emotions" she didn't care at that moment. He helped her when she needed someone, and she was going to do the same even if he never asks.

She looked away taking another sip, she felt his burning gaze.

Vanessa turned to him as she said, "Hey!..... You know I don't like to be stared... You can cut money from salary for this drink...." She walked away sitting on the sofa, freeing her hairs.

She kept her head down hiding her face with her hairs. She just wanted to be present.

Vanessa's POV:

2 hours later,

Soon He was sitting beside me, leaning against the sofa, he had has sleeves fold, his jacket was on his chair abandoned. His hairs were falling on his forehead hiding his eyes. I was just resting on the other end of the sofa pulling my knees close to me.

I might be little drunk, not that much but I can feel it. While Seth is just drinking silently.

I don't know when he came here and started his drinking here. I did filled up another glass for myself.

My head feels heavy, how is he drinking that much?

Seth took a bite of some chicken he ordered while being drunk. He was lost in own world, I was just here looking at him, trying to understand what is in his mind?

I don't have to do this but I can't leave without him.

He is my boss right, I should carry little humanity.

I finished my glass, I sighed as I felt the burning sensation of this hard liquor.

I whispered, "This sucks...." I sat back, I need some sleep but only if he agrees to go back to palace.

Can I ask to leave?

No, I am not going alone!!!!

He opened another new bottle, he poured himself another glass, I took the bottle leaning on the table.

He looked at me with anger, I said, "No.... too much.... You drank too much!" Why can't I get my words straight?

He is clearly drunk, his actions are telling his story.

Seth said, "Give it back.... Vanessa, and go home..."

No you will die of Alcohol poisoning at this point!!!

I kept the bottle away saying, "Look.... Mr.. Mr. Morris...."

I saw him clearly glaring at me with drunken eyes, I said, "Seth... You are drunk..... stop this...."

He scoffed, He gulped the remaining alcohol in his glass, he whispered, "Not like you care..... Neither of you care....."

He said looking down, "You are just here because you are worried... I will kill.. Kill that Daniel.... Bloody Parasite!!!"

Yea.... Maybe...

He taunted drunk, "Pathetic Selfish... b*TCH...."

I am offended and really angry at some point.

I looked at him, He was opening another bottle, he won't give up, he is aiming to get black out or what?

I whispered, "You hate everyone...."

His hands stopped, he looked at me. He said, "And your problem?"

He is drunk his words are slurring but still got that attitude. Is it in his blood or what?

I sat straight looking at him, I said, "I stayed... because of the deal we have..... then you should show little trust... I am working hard for you, just little trust and respect, is it too much to ask?"

Seth laughed a little, he said, "I own your life, there is no such thing as Respect if you offered yourself...." I hated how he thinks of others.

Then his eyes went to his drink, he stated, "And... TRUST.... I learnt hard way, if you trust someone you will let them a golden ticket to destroy you.... No thanks...."

I grabbed his hand turning him to me, I whispered, "We are friends right?" He raised his eyebrow.

I am drunk or something? That's not what I am trying to say.

I made it clear, "Ok... We were classmates... So... listen to advice.... Trust is good!, you got to trust someone.... Like... Like I trust that neighborhood lady to watch over my house.... the coworker who helps with work?"

Seth looked at me like I was the stupidest person he ever came across. He said to me with hint of anger, "My father lost his life because he trusted someone... I don't care what you think.... I am never going to change...."

He took another shot!

He is really going to die of Alcohol poisoning today.

His sat back tried and drunk. His hand went to his hair, messing them up.

I just couldn't take my eyes of this Royal looking man, like he is one of those Greek Gods or something, but his nature is really in the trash can.

Seth whispered, "We were Happy, Vanessa..."

He caught my attention again as he said, "We were happy.... Mom Dad and me..... He took me to mall the day before... I had best day of my life with Dad.... Then, on my birthday......"

I noticed glimpse of tears in his eyes, he looks distressed. His jaw clenched the next second, He whispered, "I hate her so much.... She took the one person I wanted to be like!!!!... She took the one person who loved me without any reason!!!"

What he is saying?... Mrs. Silvia loves you, she is your mother.

Seth said further as Alcohol took the best of him, "If things were her way.... she would have abandoned me anyways.... she did abandoned me...."

I placed my hand on his shoulder, I said, "NO.... she searched like a crazy women for you all these years... She is your mother..."

He slapped my hand off him, he tried to get up as he said, "You all are the same!!!!.... I can never trust her again!!!"

As he got on his feet he stumbled because of alcohol and landed back on sofa, this time on his shoulder. I tried to help him out but he soon landed on me.

His head was on my lap, he whispered looking at me, "I hate her.... How.... How can she come to me...."

I whispered, "Seth.... get up...."

I touched his cheeks, but he murmured in sleep, "I... will... never forgive... her..... I thought... she cared for me... but..." I saw tear streaming down his eyes.

This guy! Looks like he is pain.

He hides everything behind his rude words and stern face, he is hurt in this too.

So, everyone really has their problems.

I whispered tracing his jaw line, "Your Mother was right.... Seth.... You just need to see the story from her side....."

I know he didn't heard my words, but Why would I want to make him feel better anyways?

You have surely gone crazy......

Author's POV:

It was getting Late, Terry looked at his watch annoyed and worried. He wanted to go back, but he couldn't let Seth alone when he was as destructive as tornado.

But he was clearly amused by how that girl cooled him down, just by giving him a back hug. He saw Seth so stunned by someone's actions. Terry was questioning was today even real?

Terry knew Seth was drinking, he was mentally ready to drop him back at Palace carrying his weight.

Terry knocked on the door out of habit, he got no sign of live. He walked in hoping for the worst.

He noticed Seth's table was full of Alcohol bottles, somewhere not even opened. He turned to see Seth on the sofa sleeping on his arm as his head was on Vanessa's lap, she was also sleeping resting on the arm rest of the sofa.

Terry took a step back worrying he might be hallucinating. He noticed how Seth's hand was around her lap hugging them. He looked way too comfortable for someone who wanted kill his family right now!

The empty alcohol bottle, and mess on the coffee table was not even in his eye sight. He whispered, "She... She really bewitched him..."

Seth moved a little in his sleep hugging her waist pulling himself comfortable on her lap, he was enjoying his new pillow.

Terry whispered, "I think I am high...."

He walked out of the room closing the door. He looked back at the door telling himself, he was clearly witnessing something as this.

Seth's POV:

I opened my eyes suffering this head ache. As my vision cleared I saw that face, clearly in sleep but looking so angelic.

Only then I realized my head was on her soft lap, surely they are well shaped.

But Vanessa, why you stayed last night?

Why would you want to be around me?

I don't want to trust you, Vanessa. You will be disappointed seeing no results. You clearly, don't want to be around me, but always end up near me?

At first I was messing with you, but now it looks like it's not even my choice. I wonder where will this end, if I let off the control.

My mother Abandoned me, people near me turned against me.... While when you hate me so much since childhood, you are staying near me? How can I assume you have no motives?

You just want to save that Daniel, right?

He is really a Parasite, First he took my mother.... and he has such a place in your heart, that you are ready to do anything to save him.

He is a Parasite indeed, taking everything that came across his way.

My little step brother is really lucky I guess. But why would you care for him?..... Just because you use to babysit him, tutor him.... Or because you are like me, all alone... that you want to hold to relations that are not yours!

You are really Pathetic Vanessa.... You will get yourself Killed!

I closed my eyes hugging her waist with my both hands, getting comfortable in her lap. I need little more of this sleep.
