RILEY

CHAPTER III

RILEY SHOWED ME ALL THE STUFF HE BROUGHT WITH HIM, THERE WERE A LOT AND SURPRISINGLY NEATLY FOLDED ON THE SEATS, IN THE TRUNK AND INSIDE COMPARTMENTS. IT WAS TRULY AN IMPRESSIVE RIDE: THE INTERIOR HAD EMERALD GREEN LEATHER SITS, BEIGE CARPETS, BURGANDY WALLS, PURE WHITE CEILING, 50 INCH SCREEN TV, MINI-BAR, TABLES AND MANY OTHER COOL STUFF. I WAS BREATH TAKEN BY THE WHOLE VISION. I TOOK NEATLY FOLDED BOOKS, JOURNALS AND CLOTHES WALKING MY WAY BACK TO THE MANSION AND INTO RILEY'S ROOM. I PLACED ALL THE BOOKS ON THE SHELVES WITH JOURNALS AND PUT CLOTHES IN A WALK-IN-CLOSET. RILEY CAME IN WITH THE REST OF THE STUFF, PUTTING IT AWAY.

DC:

Wow, did you really had time to fold everything neatly inside your car?

RILEY:

Hard to believe, but yes I did. I packed right after I bought the Mazerati. I knew I had a long journey ahead of me, I decided to prepare for it, in style.

I WAS AMAZED AT HOW ORGANIZED RILEY WAS, HE STILL HAD THAT FEAR INSIDE HIM THAT SHOWED ON THE OUTSIDE THROUGH HIS TENSE MUSCULS, BUT ON OTHERWISE, HE ALREADY LOOKED CONFIDENT ENOUGH.

RILEY:

I will be taking a sleeping nap here in a moment, please stay with me? Will you stay with me by my side? I could really use your comfort. Let me just park my car and be right back. Where shall I park it?

DC:

Absolutely, but wait, are you thirsty? If you tell me what ingredients you have in that blood you brought. I shall be able to make you the perfect snack.

RILEY:

Nothing special really, just some human blood from the hospital. I have a friend who works there and he gave me 1,000 cases of it. I hid it all around the car. Now I have to retrieve it and stack my multi-level fridge here. If you can actually the pure human blood taste better, that would be awesome. 

DC:

Yes, I can make it taste better. 1,000 cases is a lot, that's enough for a year, then we can restack for some more. Pham will be helping me with that, he makes his own blood supplement, I know he will let you try it and can have both. Go park your car, I just need to get my homework from my room, while you'll be sleeping. 

RILEY:

Sounds good, thank you DC, I am very grateful to you. 

DC:

You are welcome, see you soon.

THE PARKING WENT SUCCESSFUL AND RILEY RUSHED TO MY SIDE IMMEDIATELY, WHILE I WAS SETTLING DOWN IN THE LIVING ROOM DECORATED IN BEIGE WALLS WITH EGYPTIAN HIEROGLYPHICS AND IMAGES. THE STATUES OF OSIRIS, HORUS, ANUBIS AND ISIS STOOD IN THE FOUR CORNERS. THE FURNITURE CONTAINED A VERY PLUSHY WHITE COUCH WITH RED PILLOWS, FOUR ARMCHAIRS AROUND MAHOGANY TABLE, A SILVER GREY CARPET ABOVE THE HARDWOOD FLOOR AND FRENCH WINDOWS. 

I WAS SITTING ON THE PLUSHY WHICH COUCH HOLDING MY HOMEWORK FROM PRIVET COLLEGE I WENT TO. RILEY QUICKLY SPREAD HIMSELF WITH HIS HEAD IN MY LAP AND CLOSED HIS EYES.

DC:

Here, drink this before you fall asleep. I made this extra special for you, I hope you like it.

RILEY OPENED, SAT UP AND BEGAN DRINKING THE BURGUNDY GREEN SUBSTANCE. HE DRANK IT SO FAST i WAS SHOCKED IF HE HAD TIME TO ENJOY IT. HE PLACED THE THE GLASS BACK ON THE GLASS TABLE NEXT TO COUCH AND SMILED TO ME.

RILEY:

Um mm, that was the most delicious breakfast I have ever had. You have to tell me how you did it.</p>

DC:

How can you tell if you gulped it all at once? If I tell you how I did it, it won't be much of a surprise now would it? OK my prince Riley, lay down and enjoy your sleep. From this moment, you will be fully protected.

RILEY:

Fair enough, goodnight DC, oh and just for record, I enjoyed every last drop of it.

DC:

Goodnight Riley.

I HAD TO SMILE AT RILEY'S WORDS, JUST AS MUCH AS I LIKED SAYING HIS NAME. HE WAS LIKE A SON TO ME AND I WILL ALWAYS MAKE SURE NO HARM COMES TO HIM. I WANTED TO COVER HIM WITH A CASHMERE BLANKET, BUT THEN REMEMBERED HOW TIGHTLY HE HAD CUDDLED UP TO ME. HE LOOKED SO GORGEOUS IN MY ARMS,SLEEPING. ONCE I INTRODUCE HIM TO MALI, HE WILL BE A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT PERSON.

THE MORNING WAS SLOWLY TURNING INTO AFTERNOON AND TIME WAS RUNNING FASTER THEN A 

CHEETAH. YET ALL THE SILENCE AROUND US MADE US BOTH FEEL SAFE. THE TIME WAS 2:30PM, 

I ALREADY FINISHED READING SOME CHAPTERS FOR BIOLOGY AND WAS NOT MOVING ON TO 

MY CREATIVE WRITING CLASS. I NEED TO SUBMIT A POETRY FOR CLASS PUBLICATION IN A BOOKLET 

THAT WILL BE GIVEN OUT AT THE END OF SCHOOL YEAR IN DECEMBER. 

I COULD NOT WAIT FOR CHRISTMAS HOLIDAYS TO COME SO I CAN DRESS UP MY TWO LITTLE 

BROTHERS SEAN AND ERIC INTO FASHIONABLE FABRICS. MALI DECIDED TO BE A PIRATE, 

BOYS ARE STILL A QUESTION .IT WAS AS QUIET AS A MOUSE WITHOUT ANY WIND FROM THE WINDOWS. 

ONLY THE SOFTEST TOUCH OF THE MYSTERIOUS FIGURE I COULD FEEL IN THE LIVING ROOM. 

IT FELT AS IF SOMEONE WAS LURING ME INTO THEIR EMBRACE, BUT I SAT STILL TRYING NOT 

TO NOTICE. THE SHADOWY FIGURE STOOD BEHIND ME CARESSING MY SKIN AND MOVING MY 

HAIR OUT OF THE WAY. THE FEELING WAS WAS VERY RELAXING AND IT WAS HARD TO 

CONSENTRATE ON THE POEM. IT WAS A CONTINUES ACTION, BUT I WAS VERY AFRAID 

TO MOVE TO WAKE UP RILEY. LUCKILY, HE SLEPT SILENTLY.
