Chapter 205: Trust (2)
That night, Inna found it difficult to get any sleep even when she tried. She kept tossing and rolling on the bed, hoping for some sleep to steal her away so the guilt in her heart can be replaced, but each time she closed her eyes, Elian’s striking face and his words would jolt her eyes open, and like that wasn’t enough trauma for tonight, Orson decided to add his when they could have both shared the sleepless night together.
"Sigh... I hate this." Inna muttered under her breath, gazing blankly at the ceiling with a downhearted expression on her pretty face, and with just the blink of an eye, it was already morning, and Inna found herself in a different sleeping position due to the constant tossing at night to get some sleep.
She moaned in frustration, pressing her pillow to her face to avoid the lights penetrating into her room to disrupt her sweet sleep. When it wasn’t working, Inna sat up on the bed looking deadpanned, her hair tousled on her head in a morning mess.
Without saying a word, she sluggishly got out of bed and went straight to the bathroom to get changed and prepared for the day. In her mind, she really hoped Elian had calmed down and wouldn’t get infuriated once she showed up in his room to check on him.
Meanwhile, in Elian’s room, the young red-haired vampire had finished writing a letter with his gorgeous pet bird resting on his study table. With one stroke of the ink pen on the parchment, Elian carefully folded it and glanced at his pet bird that stared idly at him.
With his index finger stretched forward, his pet bird instantly flew to rest on it, as though it already knew what it had to do. Elian placed the rolled-up parchment where it was meant to be before rising to his feet and moving to the window he had opened.
He looked at his bird and said, "remember, deliver the letter safely to Cas and Maddie, no one else. Do a good job and get a treat, if you mess this up, I’ll be having bird soup with your name on the menu."
The pretty-looking bird chirped at his low threat before flying off into the direction of the west, soaring high in the sky and getting lost in the clouds. The minute his bird had disappeared from sight, he heard a knock on the door.
"Come in."
