Chapter 45: Germs of Elliana
"Are you sure about this?" Alcinder asked, and Elliana wore the helmet before turning to him.
"Are you chickening out again and want some motivation to -"
"For the nth time, I am not chickening out. I am a powerful vampire, but it doesn’t mean I want to be pushed down a cliff and hurt my body because a stupid human thought it was fun," Alcinder gritted his teeth, and Elliana rolled her eyes.
The race was to start in another five minutes. Elliana was ready to show them what she had got. Her eyes were focused on the path ahead, and she looked at the mountains with a glint that almost looked like she was obsessed with the idea of going to them. Since she was so confident, Daniel was also excited to compete with her and prove her wrong about choosing this model.
The only person who wasn’t ready was Alcinder, who thought this was pure madness.
He couldn’t believe he finally agreed to sit behind this human and gave in to her provocation. She was seriously not good for his mental health.
Elliana tested her grip on the handle and pressed the clutch, making a rumbling sound.
They were about to start when they heard a shrill voice.
"So here you are? Why am I not surprised? I have been looking for you everywhere, and you are having fun with your friends. Do you think I am a fool or something? What do you take me for?" Samantha’s words came, and Elliana opened the flap of her helmet before looking at Samantha with a surprised smile.
"Would you like a ride?" Her question was entirely out of the situation, and Samantha narrowed her eyes.
She looked at the girl, who was looking back at her with raised, innocent eyes. This was the third time she was heading and seeing Alcinder with her. Was there really nothing to worry about? Why was she having such a hard time believing it?
