Accidentally mated to Vampire King novel Chapter 3

Christian's POV

"Mr. Ford, it's a pleasure to meet you. I always admired you," a person approached me "you are a role model for the younger generations for being a successful businessman at a young age ."

I Shift my eyes to the person talking, "Mr. Steel, I'm honed." Mr. Steel is one of the best friends of my grandfathers.

He just nods his head. "Are u planning to shift to the city? Or you'll also stay there only in the woods".

I get stiff at the question, shaking my head. "No, I'll stay with my family in the woods only."

"I don't get your family sometimes. What's there in there that you guys never come and leave in the city".

I just smile at him. "I'll come back in a few minutes" I go towards the balcony to get fresh air.

It's the full moon today. I didn't take my medicine. Well, it slipped from my mind totally. What should I do? I'll just return to my mansion then take my medication. No, I can't leave now. Party is still halfway if I go now…

No, leaving is not an option.

Something came to my mind "right that I can do. I'll do that only," deciding I came back to the party.

Today is a big day my company has accrued the shares from my rival company. This is a celebratory movement. Even though nobody dares to say anything, I'll stay here. I can't just walk away just like that today.

I wait till everyone leaves. My body is reacting to the full moon. Sweat starts to accumulate around my neck and on my forehead. I'm trying hard to control myself.

"Looks like you are not feeling well, Mr. Ford" Alex comes my way.

"Yeah, I didn't take my medicines today" I Slump my shoulder.

"Man, you are in big trouble. How can u forget that?" He stares at me as if I'm an idiot. "How can someone forget that?".

"I know, I just forgot..." commonly, we take a single dose daily, and on a full moon, we take a double dose because the carving for it is a lot stronger than any other day. And I only took a single dose of medicine because I was an idiot and didn't know it was today.

"Let me think, we can ask someone if they have medicine to help you today or..." he stops midway.

I lift my brows at him "you know the other way..." he shrugs.

"Nobody carries them here, Alex, we are far away from woods, and nobody wants others to find out about us" he looks at me apologetically.

"Sorry, man, I can't do anything about that," he shrugs.

I press my lips. It's frustrating. Why did I forget my medicine? And trying to maintain that bossy look drained all my energy. Yeah, I only claim that in front of others to keep them at bay.

"There is a small hotel that we own nearby. I'll just stay there today night then think of something," I tell Alex.

"Yeah, that will be a good idea" he smiles at me.

"Okay, man, see you tomorrow. I'll leave now" I pat on Alex's shoulder, then leave from there.
