Blood Hunt Covenant

Brady looked up to see another hurdle he had to face every year coming down the stairs at the end of the hallway.

"Brenda."

The lady in a gorgeous blue evening dress stopped, she turned around gracefully, raised her golden head, and smiled.The years had not added noticeable wrinkles to her face, nor fattened her figure. The delicate embroidery and beautiful jewelry kept her radiant, but her blue eyes had lost their sparkle.

"You should call me mother, dear."

"My mother has passed away." Brady walked over, politely kissing her face, "And I believe you don't want to recognize my son who is not related by blood."

"A little bit..." Brenda turned her head in embarrassment, avoiding Brady's gaze. She didn't know whether she was talking about blood relationship or mother-child relationship, "Indeed, I would rather be with Ni I have children of our own."

"It's a pity that my father fell in love with my mother first."

Brenda turned her head quickly, but didn't read the malicious sarcasm in Brady's eyes.

Perhaps, he was unintentional.

Thinking of this, Brenda breathed a sigh of relief, and changed the subject: "Your distant sisters are here."

"He has told me. But I will not love any of them, like my father."

Exquisite makeup could not conceal Brenda's pale complexion.She should be angry, should have taught Brady a lesson, scolded him for the wounds he stabbed her time and time again, intentionally or not.She can, because legally she is the man's mother.

But she was a gentle woman, gentle and weak.She endured the family's tyrannical decision, endured the alienated tenderness of her husband, endured the pain of a loveless marriage and widowhood, so she will also endure the man in front of her.Moreover, she doesn't know a few curse words.

"Then please refuse them politely and clearly. At least, don't make them miserable."

Brady froze for a moment, realizing for the first time in years that this woman was nothing like what he had thought.

"I will." Brady nodded sincerely, and hugged his stepmother sincerely, "The music for the banquet has already started, and the hostess should appear, please go quickly."

Brenda nodded, and walked down the stairs gracefully and calmly. She stopped on the platform for a moment, looked up at Brady, and said, "I hope you will bring us a new mistress soon, Brady." Dee, stop giving me the headache of deciding who to lead the dance."

Brady didn't answer. He waved to Brenda and watched her walk up all the steps and disappear around the corner of the hallway leading to the ballroom.

"That man won't accept my choice, whether it's Doris or Xiao Feiyang."

"What's my choice with Doris?"

Suddenly and without warning, a soft and soft voice sounded outside the window.

Brady shuddered violently.He turned his head slowly, but he was still frightened when he saw the face floating in the darkness—although he admitted that Xiao Feiyang was suitable for black, the contrast of the colors was a bit too sharp.

"Hey, what is the choice?" Xiao Feiyang asked again persistently.

"It's nothing." Brady stroked his chest to stabilize his emotions, "She asked me to quickly choose a dance partner."

"Oh?" Xiao Feiyang raised his face on purpose, "Do you want to dance women's steps so much, Brady? I'm afraid your height is not suitable for me."

Brady laughed: "Leave that aside, but you, Jan, why are you outside the window on the second floor?"

"I heard you quarreling with your grandfather—I swear, it's just some fragments, and they ran into my ears by themselves." Xiao Feiyang tilted his head slightly, "I think your grandfather's feelings for your father and you Sincerely, Brady, you will understand sooner or later. Parents always care about children, and children always don't understand the feelings of parents."

"Perhaps I have experienced this feeling now. Yang, why are you outside the window on the second floor?"

Xiao Feiyang tilted his head to the other side again: "Because the housekeeper said they didn't prepare plasma—I can understand that—so I'm here to find you, Brady." Xiao Feiyang folded his hands together as if to pray, "Just one more time, okay?"

"No, I mean..."

"We met Her Majesty Toledo on the street, and His Majesty took Elle away—no, to be precise, carried her away—and told me not to follow them, so Elle and I could do nothing. I had to Come to ask my guardian for help." Xiao Feiyang's eyes flashed and flashed, "You won't let me run out of control, Brady?"

"Of course not!" Brady put his hands on the window sill and leaned out, "But this is the second floor, Jan, you are floating outside the window on the second floor! How did you do it!"

"Eh?" Xiao Feiyang, who was still eloquent just now, was stunned, "I, am I, floating?"

Xiao Feiyang looked down at his feet, and Brady also looked down.

Xiao Feiyang, who finally confirmed his status, let out an "ah" in panic, and then fell down with a "swish". Brady grabbed his collar and dragged him into the corridor.

Xiao Feiyang sat on the ground, still a little shocked: "I just wanted to see what you were doing, and it turned out... I saw it... I don't know..." But the confusion quickly disappeared from his eyes, " It's a good sign—a leap in power—that I'm finally approaching adulthood, and my power is flight. Isn't that great, Brady?"

"Of course it's great!" Brady squatted down, patted his head, and didn't tell Xiao Feiyang: Now that the instruments that assist individuals in flying are becoming lighter and more common, the ability to fly is somewhat useless .

Vorntus that can fly, though — are undeniably rare.

As if the seeds he had planted finally sprouted, Brady felt relieved: "I hope you don't rush to adulthood before my 21st birthday."

Xiao Feiyang smiled slyly: "Why, are you afraid that I will run away immediately? Are you reluctant for me to leave?"

Am I reluctant to leave Yang?

Brady was in a daze.This is different from Honey's playful test, Moka's boring teasing, and Lu Ziqi's cautious suggestion. This is Xiao Feiyang asking him——

Are you reluctant to leave me?

So suddenly, so directly, so directly to the heart, Brady was suffocated for a moment.

I like you, but you ask me such a question.

Brady sighed at his feelings, and almost without thinking, he tentatively said, "If I said 'yes,' you wouldn't have left, Jan?"

As soon as the words came out, Brady regretted it. He suddenly remembered some other things, such as Doris.

Yeah, if he got the answer yes, how would he face Doris, face their relationship, face them waiting for each other for so many years.

But it was too late, Brady could only watch Xiao Feiyang with bated breath, waiting for his answer, as if waiting for the final judgment.
