Young Master Damien's Pet

She s.h.i.+fted her gaze from the dead black witcher to meet Damien\'s eyes, "Were you able to find grace?" she asked him and saw him nod.

"I got her outside. Durik is with her," upon his reply, Penny didn\'t go to question more on it.

"We need to kill him completely," Penny said looking at Robarte again. Though he was dead and lying on the ground, he was a black witcher who needed to be burned down until the very dust.

"Take the lead," Damien said, letting her complete the work and she bent down. Taking the needle, she pierced it into his body and it took more than a minute before the body started to crumble down, each cell turning to dust until there was nothing remaining of him. And with this everything was done.

She exhaled the cold air, the house softly creaking as whatever spell the black witch had placed for many decades now had finally been lifted.

When they stepped out of the mansion, Penny caught sight of Grace who was laid down on the ground. The vampiress looked badgered. Her face...one side of her face had turned out to be unrecognizable.

Walking to her, Penny sat down to check if she was still breathing and she was. It was faint, like a lit candle that burned its tips before it would extinguish itself.

"We\'ll need to take her to Murkh. He can figure out something," Damien stated and she nodded her head. When she heard a croak come near the body, Penny almost felt her heart slip down her chest, "Carry Durik. We\'ll be going right away."

Penny did what was asked, and she caught Durik who looked slightly fl.u.s.tered for being picked. In a blink of an eye, Damien had transported them in the council\'s building. Carrying Grace in his arms, he kicked the door open.

Murkh was doing something at his desk when he caught Damien entering the room whose front was covered in blood and the girl in his arms.

"She has lost a lot of blood. I need you to operate on her right away," Damien placed Grace on the cadaver table so that the vampire doctor could take a look at her.

"Who is this?" Murkh asked, making his way with the scalpel and other tools with him.

"My half-sister," Damien replied back, "Will she survive?"

"Let me see," the vampire doctor replied back.

Murkh didn\'t bother to get the rest of the details and he instead started to operate on the vampiress. While Damien stood next to Grace\'s body, Penny turned around not able to see the blood gus.h.i.+ng out and the way Grace\'s face had turned to the current state. Instead, she found Durik and used the reversal spell to have the man turn back to his vampire self.

Durik who was naked didn\'t know what to do, therefore he wore the doctor\'s coat so that he wouldn\'t be walking around naked in front of people. Sitting in a corner, he fell asleep leaving Penny and Damien standing next to each other.

"Are you alright?" Penny asked Damien knowing how his corruption had gone back to increase in his heart. Not waiting for an answer, she said, "Can you take a seat please," she said looking at the chair and he sat down.

Stepping closer to him, she placed her hands on either side of his face to look into his eyes. His eyes were still dilated which meant the corruption was back. She closed her eyes wondering what to do this time. With difficulty she had lowered the corruption around his heart and her mother had raised it again.

She could tell it was acting up when she stepped close to him and he was trying to put a leash around it.

This time, the corruption was not something innate and it had been caused because of her mother. An external factor, "Open your mouth," she said and leaned forward to attach her own lips. Inhaling the air and circulating it back to him. She could feel the taste in her mouth, the air which Damien had inhaled back in the abandoned mansion.

She pulled away, coughing and spitting out the dust in the basin which was dark green in color. Turning around, she saw Damien\'s eyes that had gone back to normal and she sighed. Closing her eyes.

Finally. Finally, she could relax. Damien had followed her and he took her hands in his, "Thank you."

"Anything for you," Penny smiled looking up at him. She then moved closer so that she could lean against him. She didn\'t like Grace and she had ill intentions against her but Grace\'s family was worried about her. She could only hope the girl would come around one day. Maybe not today and maybe not tomorrow, but somewhere in the future.

They then heard Murkh say, "The face will take its time to heal. Being a pureblooded vampire it might heal faster and take back its shape but in time. She\'s lost a lot of blood but I have attached the blood bag for restoration. Give it a few hours."

Damien and Penny didn\'t leave the laboratory and stayed behind. If it was a stranger, it would have been easy to leave and come back but with Grace looking pitiful in this state, it didn\'t feel right to leave.

When a few hours pa.s.sed, Murkh who had been sleeping at his desk looked up to see the monitor he had attached beeping loud enough to wake everyone. It was a red light that blinked.

"The lady is back," Murkh informed them. Penny who had been sleeping woke up and walked towards the table to see the doctor who had cleaned the blood and the wound that had been given to her by the black witch which looked cleaner.

"Murkh, I will be taking her home," Damien said to have the doctor nod.

"Let me know if you need anything."

By the time they had returned back home, Lady Fleurance\'s rage knew no bounds and she questioned what happened to her daughter whilst she cried. Even Gerald, Damien\'s father was angry with what happened. After Maggie and Caitlin had returned,?everyone was waiting for them to know what happened.

Damien sat everyone down before explaining everything in detail and not missing to tell how Grace had been talking to Robarte so that the man could have Penelope.
