He was reading the details of his documents as they flashed across the screen of his laptop. "Well, it is indicating the same body changes and sensations that I observed in him; perhaps he is infected with this virus. I suppose so, but in order to be certain, I need to examine his blood cells." Darwin thought to himself as he scrolled down the manuscripts in search of more information about this virus.
He was so preoccupied with reading the documents that he didn't notice Adrik's presence.
Adrik entered the house because he couldn't find Darwin in the living room and found him in his computer room.
He stood behind Darwin, tiptoeing without making a sound, and saw what he was reading on the laptop.
'It was like some kind of information about a specific thing,' but he was initially perplexed as to what it was about.
But then his gaze was drawn to a single sentence: "humans turning into vampires."
Adrik bends down towards the screen, resting his hands on the table to support himself, and reads thoroughly.
Darwin became immobilised when he noticed hands beside his hands.
And, with a shivering voice, he said, 'I-I don't know anything about you, I swear I - I don't know you're suffering from V-m45...'
"I mean, I don't know, oh god, what am I saying?" Darwin began babbling.
"Stop!!" babbling words, and now explain to me what this V-m45 is.' Adrik questioned him in a rough tone.
Darwin tries to stand up straight, but Adrik is leaning behind him, so he wonders if he wants him to explain like that.
Adrik noticed he was covering Darwin, so he moved away from him and sat on the chair beside him.
Darwin straightened his back and adjusted his long white cloak . He was still dressed as a doctor because he had not changed his clothes after being rescued by Adrik.
He cleared his throat and said, "Well, this is a type of virus that occurred 35 years ago in California infecting everyone. It spread like some flu, causing humans to turn into Monstrous blood suckers." In a nutshell, transforming humans into vampires. Vampires, on the other hand, are only found in fantasy novels. But what's fascinating about this virus is that it was created by humans." Darwin stated,
" Who created this virus?"
Adrik's direct question to Darwin left him perplexed. That is, how could he possibly know who created this virus? It happened 35 years ago, and he is only 23 years old now.
'Then how come you know about this when I don't?' Adrik said this while cupping his chin in his hands, as if he was sad.
Darwin wanted to burst out laughing, but he restrained himself.
'How can a Mafia know about things like research, viruses, and inventions?' 'Is he stupid?' he thought to himself.
'I studied at Harvard University, but how come there was nothing about this V-m45?' he asked, looking at the laptop screen.
" W-Wait, what did you say? What is the name of Harvard University? 'Did you attend Harvard University?' Darwin questioned him impatiently.
"Yes, it is. Not only did I study, but I was also the top student there. "I finished my medical course there," he replied casually.
And Darwin was speechless, as he was taken aback.
"Why are you so surprised? I am also a professional hepatopancreatic surgeon." Adrik gave him another dose because he was shocked.
Darwin was quoted as saying, "Why are you launching so many attacks on me? Now, how should I address him? Should I address him as Senior or Consigner? Very perplexed". He scratched his brow in frustration.
'Hey!! 'Are you even here?' Adrik waved his hand in front of his face, because he was lost in his own world.
"Oh, senior, no, Mr. consiglier..." What the f**k am I saying?!
"What are you saying now? Come on, tell me how you found out about the V-m45." Adrik asked, impatiently awaiting his response.
Darwin gave him a fake smile and pretended to think, but in reality he was shivering in fear and sweating cold sweat in fear. If he does not respond, he will undoubtedly kill him brutally, and the fact that he is a vampire shook him from within.
Adrik began tapping his right foot in anxiety while staring at him, his green eyes fixed on Darwin's nervous face.
" Oh!" I can't take it any longer; tell me how you found out about this or I'll kill you." Adrik yelled angrily as he stood up from his seat.
" No, please don't suck my blood. I don't want to turn into a vampire, but I promise I'll find out who made this virus and get you an antidote." He pleaded for mercy.
"Antidote!!" Adrik's eyes lit up as he heard this word.
He becomes impatient and inquires once more.
"Can you get me an antidote?"
Darwin nodded yes because he had been working on this for many years, even though he didn't know anything about the antidote for this V-m45, but he could give it a shot.
'Can I trust you?' Adrik questioned him suspiciously.
'Well, yes, but first I need to examine your blood cells to learn about your immune system.' Whether your cells are dead and V-m45 cells are active in your body, or if your cells are alive.' Darwin stated, folding his hands.
"What exactly do you mean by "active V-m45 cells"? 'Do they control all over the body cells?' he wondered, confused.
"Yes, when this virus infects someone, their body cells are consumed by V-m45 cells, and your cell dies.
That is why there are many symptoms, such as the infected hate sunlight because it can burn them, and they can't stop themselves from transforming into vampires after seeing blood, but I discovered you can control yourself." Darwin elaborated.
"I see," Adrik said thoughtfully, nodding.
"But how did you get infected? because this case happened 35 years ago and those who were infected were either killed by Army organisations or died on their own because it was a deadly virus that could kill you. I've heard that those who were infected didn't live more than a few years before succumbing to the disease." Darwin asked him in consternation, his mind still racing with uncountable questions.
'I am 28 years old, and I noticed a change in my body when I was 18 years old.' But how did you find out about it?' Adrik repeated the question in front of him.
'It was my father's research; he was doing research on this with his other team members.' In fact, they were all working on an antidote.'
'Did they discover the antidote?' Adrik inquired.
'No, I don't know because my father later left his team members and began working for Novikov Consigliers.' Perhaps his team members would have discovered it, but nothing about them is mentioned in this document of my father,' Darwin said, returning to the laptop and scrolling through it again in search of more information.
"DAMN!!!" In frustration, Adrik punches the table.
'But my father once said that there was a wizard scientist behind this virus who was preparing his own army of Monstrous to rule over the world, and he was a complete psycho.' Darwin stated this.
'I have to find him,' Adrik grumbled angrily.
'Hey, I don't know if it's a complete antidote, but I can give you some medicine that will control your cravings for blood,' he said.
"OK, I'm in. Because I want to live like a normal human being, "Adrik stated in his voice that pain and suffering can be felt.
"I need some laboratory instruments to do any further experiments. First I'm going to test your blood, then only further experiments about Antidote can be done," Darwin explained.
Darwin Atkinson, like his father, was a brilliant scientist and physician. As a result, he was capable of creating any type of Antidote. That's why he was forced to work for Novikov Consigliers, making medicines and conducting research. He has a personality when he starts his research. He wanted it to finish up with a solution, but he had never tried out V-m45.
"All right," I can do it. Darwin made up his mind that he would make it happen.
"Whatever you require, write it down and give it to Lucas tomorrow morning; now you can go wash yourself." Adrik said as he exited the room.
Adrik was ecstatic, but enraged at the same time because of the psycho scientist who created this.
Darwin breathed a sigh of relief as Adrik left.
"Oh, no! I felt as if I were taking a competitive exam or giving a lecture. He asks so many questions in such a short amount of time. But he pretends to be cold on the outside but has a warm heart inside, because if he was truly like the monsters I've heard about, he would never have put his life in danger to save me from that bomb blast. I feel sorry for him; I'm confused about how he became infected with a deadly virus."
" Okay, let's not waste time thinking about it. He told me to wash , but where is the_"
Darwin murmured as he removed his pendrive from the laptop, placed it back on his chain, and exited the room.
"This mansion is enormous and luxurious. I wish I could live in a place like this. "By seeing this, I can say Mafias are Damn billionaires," he said, his eyes widening in surprise at the magnificent beauty of the mansion.
"Woah!!" Darwin came to a halt in front of two rooms with massive doors carved in wood; a polished and woody odour emanated from them, which was so natural and refreshing.
"Which room should I enter? This one or that one!!" He stands in front of two rooms, like a small child, and plays with his fingers crossed.
'All right, I'll get in on this one.' He squeaked the door open and was dumbfounded by the inside view of the damn luxurious room designed with classic assets that enhanced the beauty of that massive room.
The lights were gleaming, and a huge fluffy round bed occupied the centre of the room, with red curtains on the glass window. A large LED TV was mounted on the wall, which was also decorated with numerous expensive paintings.
Darwin entered the room and shut the door.
He was at a loss for words to describe the beauty of that room.
He enters the washroom, which, to his surprise, is also very large and appears to be well-designed.
*After some minutes*
He comes out of the bathroom in his bathing robe, looking for something to wear.
He opened the cupboard on one side of the room and saw suits of high-end brands lined up inside.
Darwin had a big grin on his face.
He simply pulls out a black shirt and trousers to wear.
The room in which Darwin was staying was designated as a guest room. Actually, Adrik has no family members and no visitors except Olivia, whom he despises.
As a result, the mansion's downstairs rooms functioned as guest rooms, which were maintained by servants under Lucas' command.
Adrik's bedroom_
In the dim light of the room, he was resting on the sofa, his arms covering his face and his sharp jawline was visible in the dim light of his room.
He was dressed casually in a shirt and slacks.
His shirt's upper buttons were undone, revealing his well-toned muscular chest, and a gun that was stuck in his shoulder belt, giving him a Mafia look. He was in a damn sexy position that could turn on any girl.
Adrik always dresses up casually and carries a gun in his shoulder belt because he never knows when his enemies will attack him.
Adrik's life was like a deserted island. He has no one with whom he can share his sorrows and emotions. His adoptive father was the only one he called his everything, but he had also abandoned him. The pain of having no one in his life, the sorrow of knowing he was an orphan, had turned his heart into stone, with no feelings for anyone, no mercy, no compassion, no forgiveness, but he still had a wish for someone who could understand and feel his pain.
"Have I been too gentle with that new guy? What if he tries to play with me?" 'What if he reveals my Vampire identity to everyone?' These thoughts raced through Adrik's mind.
From the outside, he appears to be calm, but inside, he is impatient, anxious, and terrified of being labelled a monster.
