Chapter 96: 96. Don't Want To Share

Jael threw himself into bed. The sheets felt tacky and he could hear even the slightest movements he made. He had taken a shower and he just wanted to sleep but found that he couldn't.

He laid still, clearing his thoughts but he still couldn't stop his mind from running rampant. The paler that had escaped was pretty worrisome, especially at a time like this. 

A huge part of him hoped this was some big coincidence and there was nothing to worry about but somehow he could tell something wasn't right, it might not be what he thought but he knew something was up.

Jael sat up with an exasperated sigh. The day was just starting and even though he was tired and badly needed to sleep, he knew he wouldn't be able to even if he spent time in bed.

He ran his hands through his hair. He wanted to leave her to herself, she had looked sick enough and it was obvious that she was in pain. However, he was used to sleeping with her warmth against his body.

For the past two days, he has been busy making sure everything was in place and ready for the party. He had been stuck in his study replying to unnecessary letters that were necessary for some reason.

Vampires loved to make a ceremony out of everything but considering they had all the time in the world, it was understandable. His impatience, however, knew no bounds and he pissed him off that so much time was wasted.

Jael stood to his feet there was no point stalling. The faster he could get comfortable, the faster he could sleep. Sundown was going to be worse than last night. All the Lords are going to arrive except the ones exempted.

He needed to be in the right state of mind to receive the guest, or else he couldn't prevent himself from making drastic decisions.
