Chapter 42 - Alana Lannes (1/2)

Sheri arrived at her home and finally can recharge. With all her fighting she is a bit exhausted, especially she didn't eat and drink her bloody juice. While drinking, a jolt of the wind passed her. When she looked, Angelo is standing in front of her.

Sheri furrowed her brow. ”How did he get in? I clearly lock my door.” Sheri was pondering when Angelo speaks gently.

”Are you ok? What did they do to you? Did they hurt you?” Angelo asked nonstop.

The cheerful face of Sheri becomes grave. She places her emptied glass in the kitchen counter and crossed her arms.

”Why do you care? Please leave. I have no time for you. ” Sheri firmly said.

Angelo scans her from head to toe and saw that she is unharmed.

When his under men informed him that Sheri was kidnapped. He felt fear and nearly eliminates his men while inquiring him why he didn't intervene. He was furious with himself and his men. If something happens to her. He doesn't know what to do. He was terrified. For the first time, he experienced that emotion.

When he saw she's ok. He relaxes and becomes silent when he heard her.

”I care because I'm your husband,” Angelo said.

”That's hilarious. As far as I know, we have never been husband and wife. Since you mention that word. Please figure out how to annul the marriage and when you're done. Knock at my door and I will gladly open it for you. For the meantime leave.” Sheri pointed at the door toward Angelo.

He frowns.

When Sheri saw that Angelo didn't move. She walked past him and went toward her room and lock it. She went toward her desk and starts looking at the papers and books that were scattered. She has been searching for almost a year how to divorce her husband. It is very well written in the book of Olds that when a vampire married they stay together forever. The sole thing that Alana and Angelo, didn't do is the ”forever binding ceremony.” Wherein both will have to take each other's blood and it will bind them forever. If both vampires didn't do the ceremony the marriage still exists but can dissolve any moment as long as they will chant the unbinding chant together.

Sheri has been seeking the ”book of chant” that was said in the book of ”Old's.” There is one place according to her dad that might have that book. It's in the library of the Coven Lithua meaning Angelo possesses it. For the vampires, it's a taboo to speak about a separation between couples.

Morning arrived she came out of her room and when she looked. Angelo is not there anymore. She sighed with relief and prepared to go to work.

When Sheri arrived, she saw Ghani arguing with someone. She can't see who. Sheri furrowed her brow, but she believes Ghani will inform her about the problem. So she proceeds to her office.

Anyway, she has no time for this. This year they are extending another branch around the world, so she needs to work hard. Her dad offered his help, but she doesn't want to.

After a while, Ghani came toward her office and slam the door.
