The incident happened so fast and unexpected. Even Mila didn't think that Aaric would do this to her.

Damn it! She trusted this man! How could he just attack her? ​​

And again, what were the two of them actually doing? Seeming so intimate and very close to each other?

Mila couldn't explain the anger boiling in her chest and making it so hard for her to think straight.

By seeing how Aaric was with Ellen alone, Mila could literally feel her chest burn with some indecipherable emotion.

Whether it was a good feeling or not, Mila didn't really like to see their closeness.

However, when the medicine that Aaric had injected into her neck began to work, Mila could not think clearly any longer as darkness began to engulf her and made her very weak, until finally Mila had no other choice but to give in to helplessness.

And the last thing Mila heard when her consciousness started to fade was Ellen's voice screaming hysterically at Aaric.

"She intends to kill me! Her true nature is starting to show and this is not a good sign to give her freedom, Dr. Miller is wrong. I will talk to Dr. Miller to let him know about this."

Then the sound of distant footsteps and the hasty sound of a door opening could be heard.

Meanwhile, Aaric looked at Mila's eyes which were closed shut tightly, but with a frown in between, indicating the stress she was experiencing right now.

The man then caressed the girl's face very carefully and looked at her deeply.

"What really happened?" Aaric whispered softly into her ear and pushed her white hair away from the side of her face. "Are you really starting to remember who you are?"

==============

Mila didn't know how long she had been unconscious, but the first thing she heard was the surrounding noise, which had awakened her from a deep sleep.

What sound is that? How annoying!

Mila growled and groaned softly, notifying the people around her that she had regained consciousness.

And immediately the voices that had been bothering her became lower before complete silence greeted Mila again.

Because the main factor that had awakened her was gone, Mila fell back into a dreamland.

Although she was not sure if she was really dreaming, because not once did Mila see anything or something other than the white room which was so brightly lit.

Whether it was a dream or not, but Mila was in the white room alone.

Mila didn't care, because her head felt so light and there was nothing she could do but stay still since her body was too weak to move.

As if she had lost all of her energy.

==============

"We have been learning about her for too long," Dr. Steve said. "I think this is enough, and if she really is a danger to our people, we better destroy her soon."

"What do you mean?" Dr. Miller asked. He was the one who came up with the idea to give Mila freedom and research her behavior.

"Destroy that creature of course," Dr. Steve said, frowning at the question. According to him, it was a question that did not need to be asked, as the answer was very clear.

They had indeed made the girl an object of research, but because Mila was always unconscious, they couldn't observe her behavior when she was awake.

This was a good time to do that research. Just as when they were observing Mila's body structure, knowledge of how the cold- blooded creatures interacted with one another or how their behavior patterns were equally important.

Therefore Dr. Miller disagreed with Aaric, who was now known as Dr. Drake. He then lodged the same protest.

"Then what about Dr. Ellen's opinion?" Dr. Miller turned his attention to the woman who had not opened her mouth since the beginning of the conversation.

She looked uncomfortable and hugged herself, as if she wanted to protect herself. After all, remembering Mila who intended to attack her three days ago made her shudder in horror, as it left a trauma on her.

Before this, Ellen had never seen a vampire in a defensive or brutal condition. Therefore she was very scared to know what Mila could do to her if only Dr. Drake wasn't there.

Remembering the incident again, Ellen shivered with fear.

Now, Mila was under strict surveillance and she was not allowed to be visited by anyone without permission from Steve or Miller.

Unfortunately, that also applied to Aaric, because Dr. Drake was under Dr. Miller, so there was not much he could do to help Mila.

D*mn!

Aaric now had to figure out how he could get his hands on Dr. Miller or Dr. Steve's body to save Mila.

Because if Dr. Steve really did what he wanted to do to her, then Aaric would lose her forever.

No. He couldn't afford that.

"What do you think?" Dr. Steve asked Ellen in a much firmer voice. "You are the one who underwent this attack."

"Dr. Steve, I think you forgot one thing here," Aaric spoke up, his eyes fixed on Dr. Steve in front of him. "Just in case you forgot, I was in that room when the attack happened… how can you assume Mila only attacked Dr. Ellen? It could be that she actually intended to attack me too."

Dr. Steve met Aaric's glare and he was silent for a few moments, before he finally said.

"So you want to say that you don't agree with my suggestion?" Dr. Steve raised an eyebrow.

Aaric then gave a sweet smile to Steve, to ease the tension between them. "I didn't mean to disagree with you, Dr. Steve. However, I agree with Dr. Miller if we can do further research into the basic behavior of these cold- blooded creatures," he replied diplomatically.

On the other hand, after hearing Aaric's answer, Steve laughed quite loudly, which made the other three people in the room frown. "It was a fancy way to say you don't agree with me, Drake," he said derisively.
