Chapter 23: Accident
Ch-23
Zora Mansion....
5.30. P. M.....
Eleanor was all ready to go to the banquet. In fact, after six months she was attending it, but not as a beautiful vase held by the Zora family but as the representative of the Zora family. She felt nervous, her lips turned pale as she thought about the wolves which were ready to gobble her up in the banquet. She took a tissue paper and cleaned her lips. Her pale pink lips made her look like a ghost awakened from her grave. So, she took a red-blood lipstick and applied it to her lips. After she was done, she gave a complete to herself in the mirror finally before setting off. The driver had already reversed the car, she went and climbed in. At nearly 6.45 P.M. She reached the venue but the long queue of cars in front of her which needed to be cleared was just big. Image big in the sense big!
At 7.05.P.M, The queue cleared and she got the time to park her car. After her car was parked she climbed off and went to the entrance. She saw everyone has a partner while she was alone. So... this was how it feels to be alone. She gave a bitter smile to herself as if she was mocking herself. Eleanor took a deep breath, as she made her way towards the security to pass through. After showing the invitation card, she was guided inside the party with the help of staff. They left her telling her to fend for herself by leaving her alone.
There would be times, where a person would feel alone... even when there were many people around him. That was the moment where a person would see the world as a spectator. Maybe he or she would not need the pity of other persons but a company or precisely a shoulder to lean or hide from the people who hide their beastly self under the human skin.
And exactly these people are blood-sucking vampires in the forms of humans. Just a chance the person with whom you were chatting or laughing right now would suck your blood without leaving a single drop. They won’t give you a single chance to get up. Eleanor swept her gaze at the greedy people around her.
Six months ago.... The same people who tried to bootlick her were chatting and laughing but now she has to be in their place. The irony was.... If God wants he would be a beggar, a king and the king as a beggar for his fun. Maybe she was a part of that fun right now. Eleanor closed her and took a breath.
