Chapter 9 44 % " Yes . " He said as we approached the elevator , and waited for me to enter as he pushed the top button out of two on the console . It must be a private elevator , seeing as it only had the top and bottom floor options . He didn't say anything more until we entered his office , when he told me to sit at the small desk next to his . His desk was made of beautiful California redwood , and stood tall and strong . Once he sat at the desk , it looked small and frail with him behind it . My desk was much smaller , but made out of the same materials . Once he sat , he started looking through a stack of paperwork , and typing into his laptop . His long slender fingers flew over the keyboard so quickly , my eyes couldn't keep up . There was a brand - new laptop placed on my desk , as well as a pad of paper and a pen . He spent a lot of money , and time having someone put this together just since last night . Upon seeing what he'd done for me , I felt so much worse about what I said to him . I knew buying me a brand - new laptop and expensive desk was nothing to him , but the thought behind it is what touched me . He was excited for me to spend real time with him , and it showed . But I went and fucked everything up by acting like an immature bitch . 4 I opened my laptop and started and instant message conversation with my best friend , Valerie . She was the only one who knew everything about me , including Damien . The only thing she didn't know , is that Damien is a vampire . I couldn't tell her that no matter how much I wanted to . ( 1 ' Val , I fucked up . ' I sent to her . ' Why ? What's wrong ? ' she responded immediately . I knew she would be online , it's a weekend after all . ' I said something bad and now he's upset . ' ' You managed to upset Damien Edge ?? Tell . Me . Everything ! ' was her response . So I told her everything , from when he first came to my house , until I started the conversation with her . Omitting the fact that he killed Jacob , of course . I just told her that he made him leave . Bast , even I have to admit , saying rape was definitely crossing the line , I'm sorry if you hate me for siding with him on that .

' was her response . ' Well no shit , Val . But how ? ' ' Lock the door and break in your new desk . He can afford a new one , I mean nearly twenty years without sex , you know he will literally break in that desk ' she sent back with a couple of winking emojis . I gasped aloud , alerting Damien as he stopped typing and looked up at me with a quizzical look . " Sorry , Val said something surprising . " I said to him . He nodded and went back to typing , without a word . Damien knew of Valerie , he'd actually met her before , about a year ago . Every six months , Damien would come to see me , to see if my parents had broken their promise , and tried to harm me in any way . After a few times of him coming to check on me , I finally asked him why . " Are you like a vampire guardian angel ? Why do you come and check on me every six months ? " He responded with : " The night I made the deal with your parents , your father tried to sell you for one night . And when I told him I wanted you for good , he threatened to poison you . I keep a constant watch on you , but I have to make sure those scum don't kill you before I can have you . " 2 He told me this as he drove me home from school . When we arrived back at the house , he spoke again : " Bast , you need to be careful . They have already tried to sell you since I laid claim on you . The only reason I don't kill those worthless blood bags , is because you deserve to be raised by your real parents .
