Chapter 89 - Eighty-Eight: The Sleeping Siblings

Emily quietly peeked from behind the door and watched the young man who was resting on the sofa with his eyes closed.

It was quite hard to tell whether he was awake or sleeping.

Just as she had predicted, he was really in his room. But now that she was already at his door, she could no longer find the courage to enter the room.

A soft sigh left her lips as she ended up deciding to return to her room.

"What are you doing here?"

The sudden question made her stop in her tracks. She slowly turned to once again peek through the slightly open door and looked at the young handsome man sitting inside.

He still had his eyes closed and he barely showed any reaction when she pulled the door completely open and entered the room.

She walked closer to him and stood in front of him in silence.

"What are you doing here, Emily?"

The man repeated his question when he got no reply from the girl. His voice was neither cold nor soft.

"I'm bored." 

Emily answered in a barely audible voice as she found herself staring at her sneakers with a sad feeling that was coating her heart in its many layers.

Simon finally decided to open his eyes as he looked at the girl and the sadness that was clearly visible on her face.

"And?"

He questioned as he observed her.

Emily slowly pulled her eyes away from her sneakers to look at her brother.

His eyes were still as aloof and indifferent as they were when she met him for the first time. 

But there was something else too, hidden behind that aloofness, and it was nothing else than the love and care that he carried for her.

A very small smile appeared on her lips as she felt the coldness sinking away from her heart as she noticed the care that was hidden in his eyes.

Without wasting a single more second, she dropped beside her brother on the sofa as she wrapped herself around his left arm just like a koala.

"Em....."

Simon was about to say something when he was cut off by his baby sis.

"I don't want to stay in my room all alone. For some reason, I no more like the feeling of being left alone. The emptiness of that room creeps me out." 

She slowly raised her face to look at her brother as she asked in a soft voice, "Can I stay here with you? Please!"

Simon found his heart melting at the request. He could see in her eyes that she was not lying.

In the past few months that he had spent with his sister, he had come to realize that she was not a good liar.

She barely lied to them about anything and on the few occasions when she tried, he knew that just like him the rest of his brothers could also tell that she was not telling the truth.

The purity and innocence that she held in her eyes were unable to hide the truth from those who knew her.

He pulled his arm out of her tight grasp, immediately noticing the sadness and embarrassment that took over her cute little face.

But a huge smile bloomed on her face when he snuggled his arm around her shoulders and pulled her closer to his side.

"Wanna watch a movie?" He asked softly as he picked up the remote and switched on the huge tv that was sitting on the wall in front of the sofa.

"En!" 

Emily hurriedly nodded her head before she snuggled closer to the warmth that was covering her brother.

They decided to watch a comedy adventure. They were almost near the end of the movie when Simon's attention was pulled towards the girl who was sleeping soundly in his arms.

He could not fight the smile that appeared on his face as he observed her fingers that were tightly curled around his shirt.

It was barely eleven o'clock in the morning and she was already asleep.

The thought made him smile even more as he lightly shook his head before relaxing.

He was definitely not prepared to fall asleep too as the warmth of his baby sister pulled him into a deep slumber.

Northern Clouds City...

The Night Valley~

-

Just like its name, even during the brightness of the day, the Night Valley was still covered in the darkness.

No human dared to step closer to this bizarre area that was located in the Northern Clouds City.

No matter what time of the year, seasons, or day it was, the Night Valley always remained covered in never-ending darkness.

It was not a secret that the residents of the Night Valley were not humans, but exactly what kind of supernatural creatures roamed through this part of the city was still unknown.

The Night Valley was as mysterious as it was deathly.

According to one of the hundreds of rumors surrounding the mysterious valley, the darkness that surrounded the valley was due to a curse of a very powerful witch.

On the other hand, some believed that it was a protection ward that was protecting the supernaturals living in there.

The mortals were completely unaware of the dangers and reality of the famous Night Valley.

A huge sky scrapper that was located in the very center of the Night Valley, was the home of the most powerful supernatural.

Currently, a banquet was going on in the huge ballroom of the sky scrapper.

However, most of the people who attended the banquet were not looking that happy. The reason behind their unhappiness was the absence of the Supreme Sire.

They all were eager to join the banquet to get the chance of meeting the most powerful supernatural, their Supreme Sire.

However, they did not even get to see a single glimpse of him throughout the three hours long banquet.

Obviously, the ladies who joined the banquet were the most unhappy. They lost a golden chance of meeting the most handsome, powerful, wealthiest, and the ethereal man living on the planet.
