Chapter 15

MERLIN'S RESTAURANT ~~ CALIFORNIA
Ava had a smile on her face as she faced the woman.
"You guys saw that right?" She asked happily and the woman smiled.
"Yes we did" Merlin said and she smiled again.
"Alright, go take your aprons from the kitchen, customers will come in soon" She said and they nodded before going in.
They met a girl in the kitchen preparing the food to be served.
Ava tied the apron around her waist and she packed her hair in a ponytail.
"Hey" She said to the girl who just gave her a blank look before focusing on her food.
She walked to her and sat on the counter beside her. The girl gave her a look.
"I'm Ava" She said and the girl ignored focusing on her food.
"If you don't answer me, I will frustrate you" She whispered and the girl groaned.
"I'm Chloe. Now would you let me cook?" Chloe said and Ava giggled.
"Sure" She said and got down before going out of the kitchen. She was given a small book and a pen by Merlin for her to take orders.
Chloe scoffed and faced her food.
Jason tied the apron on his waist as well and left the kitchen. He was also handed the book and pen to take orders.
They stood and waited for customers to come in.
"You're quite funny" He said and she looked at him.
"I know" She said and smiled.
She frowned when she didn't hear his heartbeat.
"You're a vampire" She muttered and his eyes widened.
"What are you talking about?" He asked, sweating already.
She faced him and looked straight into his eyes. Her eyes shone a bright shade of golden before she turned it back to normal.
"You're a werewolf" He muttered.
"And you're a vampire" She said and he smiled.
"Yes I am. Apparently a female vampire killed my father and even when I told her to kill me, she refused. Instead she turned me into a vampire and took me to her house" He explained and she arched a brow.
"Where is her house located?"
"Garberville!"
"Do you happen to know her name?" She asked.
"No!" He said and she sighed..
"I happen to reside close to Garberville"
"Really? Then we'd go home together" He said..
"That's if my hubby doesn't come get me" She said and he smiled.
Customers began coming in and they went to meet them.
"Good day ma'am you and sir, what can I get you please?" Ava asked politely to the two couples.
The man stared at her and licked his lips.
They carried the menus and checked what they wanted before speaking.
"A hamburger please" The woman said and she nodded and faced the man.
"What about you sir?" She asked and he winked at her.
She frowned.
The woman hit the man and he cleared his throat.
"Same thing she's having" He said and she nodded, writing it down.
"Your order will be delivered soon" She said and left.
She went to the kitchen and handed Chloe the paper.
"Alright, here you go" She said and handed her a tray of the two hamburgers.
"Thanks" Ava said and Chloe nodded.
"I said thanks" Ava said and Chloe looked at her.
"You're welcome" She replied and Ava smiled.
"You will learn how to talk by force" Ava said and smiled before leaving.
"Gosh" Chloe rolled her eyes and Jason came with an order which she gave him a tray of it.
He nodded and left the kitchen going to serve the food.
"Here you go" Ava said, dropping the tray on the table.
He stylishly held her hand and she threw his hands off.
"Pervert" She said and left the place.
The woman gave him a glare and he scoffed.
GARBERVILLE ~~ RINA'S MANSION
Rina sped into Jason's room and she furrowed her brows when she didn't see him there.
"So he did leave Garberville" She muttered.
She went to his bed side and saw the glass of blood she dropped for him on the table untouched.
She frowned deeply before speeding out of the room and out of the house.
She sped out of Garberville and stopped at the entrance of the city before walking into it.
She walked past different people and different places. She scoffed when her legs began aching but it stopped.
She passed by a restaurant and she stopped walking before stepping backwards.
She perceived a werewolf scent coming from the restaurant and she walked into the restaurant.
The door made a ding sound and Jason turned his gaze to the door. He frowned when he saw Rina.
Ava who was serving another table stared at the door. She smiled when she saw Rina.
Rina walked to Ava.
"What are you doing here?"
"I am working as you can see" She said with a smile.
"Do you want to eat?" She added and Rina gave her a hard glare.
"The supposed queen of Garberville should be ruling the clan but instead, she's in the human world, doing bullshít" Rina seethed and Ava smiled.
"It looks like you don't want to eat. If you want to vent out your anger, go to another restaurant" She said and turned to leave.
Rina grabbed her by the hand and pulled her out of the restaurant before speeding away.
No one saw them since they didn't quite pay attention to them.
Jason walked out of the restaurant and looked around.
'Where did she take Ava?' He thought and Merlin came out.
"Where's Ava?" Merlin asked.
"That strange lady took her away"
"Should we call the cops?" Merlin asked.
"No! I'll go find her" He said and she nodded.
He ran away immediately.
When he realized he had gone far from the restaurant, he looked around and made sure no one was looking before speeding away.
FOREST ~~ CALIFORNIA
Rina stopped in front of the forest and pushed Ava. She staggered forward before turning back immediately.
"Are you insane?" Ava asked with an arched brow.
Rina sped to her and tried grabbing her by the neck but Ava was quick to hold her hand glaring hard at her.
"I need you to stay away from Lucian" She said and Ava threw her hands off.
"He's my husband so whatever feeling you're having for him should be terminated cos you won't have him" Ava said and Rina frowned before throwing a punch at her.
