Chapter 126 - Festival

>>Nena

I knocked on Quincy’s study but received no answer. Well, to begin with I never really waited for his answer, so I opened the door to peek inside.

He was working on the laptop, wearing his computer glasses while completely ignoring me.

Figures.

He’s still mad at me but this outcome was inevitable if I think about it so I won’t stress on it.

I entered the room, “Hey,” I greeted him, “I just came to remind you, tomorrow’s the college festival.”

He kept typing on the keys without even sparing me a glance. He pretended that I wasn’t even there and that hurt me a little but since I deserve it I didn’t make a fuss about it.

“Well um, I guess you’re not coming but if you do, our department has a special event planned.” I kept my gaze on him and he kept his on the screen.

What is he even typing that seriously?

“...” The typing continued.

“Well, we have a nude sketching event to encourage people towards art and I’m a model for that.” His fingers froze for a moment, then he slowly began to type again and paid no attention to me again.

Is he really not fazed?

“Well, I’m leaving.” I started taking my steps backwards, “Got a long day tomorrow.” I kept my eyes on him as I left the room and closed the door behind me.

Well, it’s done.

Gotta wait for tomorrow now.

>>Quincy

I kept typing on the laptop but it was one single word

Nude? Nude? Nude model? Nude? Nude…. Nude… Nude model… Why Nude? Why would it encourage people towards art? Nude? Nude!?!!!

Why would she be a nude model?

For what??

Nude!?!?!?!

Why Nude!!!????

Why does this girl only give me stress?!?!??!?!!!!!

Why is nude modelling even a thing? Do people have no dignity?

Nude…

Nena as a nude model?

I stopped myself from moving because I was pinch close to breaking something.

***

Shit

Hell!!

I’m angry at her, so I shouldn’t go to the festival but the nude model thing won’t leave my mind! It hasn’t left my mind since yesterday!

She left two hour ago! I saw her leave with that guy that had an Audi.

What do I do now!??

Oh My God…

This is stressing me out!

I paced around in the room, panicking.

What do I do?

Just what???

I can’t go! But I should! What if a creep choses her to be his model? Are there any proper safety rules there? Wait! Can people watch her?

What the hell!

My instincts were screaming at me to keep her safe.

Shit!

I shook my head

SHIT!!

I have to go!

I have to go!

I have to go but I can’t! Oh damn!

At this point I had started sweating.

Shit!

Fuck everything. I have to go!!

“Hey!!” I paused when I heard my father’s voice, “Son, you okay?” He came into the lounge from the outer corridor, “You looked a little stressed out.”

“You still haven’t left?” I looked at him in disbelief.

He pouted, “Why would I leave when my daughter invited me to her college festival?” He was offended, “I’m going to attend that.” He walked past me, ready to leave.

What?

She invited him?

Why?

What is going on here?

I have never been more confused in my life.

It couldn’t be… She invited him because she thought I wouldn’t be coming??

Is that it? What the hell Nena? What are you doing?

She’s messing up my mind!

But wait!

I can use this! It’s the perfect excuse!

“Dad!” I turned to look at him.

“What?” He was already at the door.

“Do you know the way?” I asked, “To her college?”

“Ah!” He suddenly realised, “I don’t.”

“I’ll take you there.” I smiled.

Perfect.

“I honestly forgot how bright the human world is,” Dad complained and kept fanning himself, “Why is that round thing in the sky so bright?”

The sun was out in full force and it was a bright sunny day.

“Of course you did, you never visit this world in daylight.”

“I feel a little dizzy.” Honestly, he did look like he could use some shade.

“You’ll be fine when you get there.” But the priority now was Nena.

“Why?” He looked me dead in the eyes, “Is there night there? Huh!?” He stopped, “I’m going back.” He acts like a complete child sometimes.

“We’re here!” I grabbed his shirt and pulled him along, “You were the one who wanted to come.”

“Are you sure you’re not the only one who wants to go?” He eyed me, “Hmm?” His tone was quite taunting.

“No,” I denied it, “I came here because of you.”

I dragged him in and we went straight to the department of Art and Design.

The place was lively, full of colours, people, voices, music and chattering and for a vampire, it was a bit too vibrant.

“Wow,” Dad was feeling a bit overwhelmed.

“So,” I cleared my throat, “Where do you wanna go?”

“Since I’m already here.” He sighed, “I’m gonna take a look at Nena and then leave,”

I nodded and we began to make our way towards the stall the Fine arts student had made. The hallway was spacious and many students were standing outside to showcase what they were offering but there was a group that just stood out.

And it was not because of one reason.

First, the place had a large number of male audiences.

Second there were female models there sitting on the podiums to catch attention looking like prostitutes.

With most of their skin visible. The six models had a silk cloth covering them from their chest to their hips.

Anger began to boil in me.

My emotions began to stir. It was something hard to even see.

I gritted my teeth and clenched my fists as I tried to control myself because the one at the centre of attention was my kin.

I clenched my jaw.

And she was having the time of her life seducing the low lives that were wagging their tail for her.

I wanted to take everyone here and rip them apart. It wouldn’t even be a problem for me. I excel at dark magic.

I can just burn them all alive here.

HOW DARE THEY?!

How dare they even look at my kin like that.

I gritted my teeth.

Nena is only mine.
