Endless Path

Chapter 17

Steve calmly explained the situation to the guy but that rock head continued to suspect his kind gestures.

" Who drugged me? I remember someone injecting something into me...who were they . were they your men?"He was suspecting me yet again.

'Why you little...I wish I could s***k you...(sigh)'

"Think whatever you want..."

Steve turned around as he have had enough of these people in one day,

He kept on looking at the tired Image walking out of the room, dejected.

............

"Agh.....I didn't sign up for this...why is everything so tiring?"

Steve dragged his feet all the way into the main lounge, with her guard down.

And there sat Sera, in all her grace on the central couch, with Mike obediently standing before her.

'Badump...badump...'

'No...this is bad...this is really bad...'

Steve was just about to turn around and run away from the sight when Mike noticed him, and greeted him with a grin...

"Young Master Steve!....haah! Finally...do you know how muchI wanted to meet you? I have become a great fan of you since you fought the Python's,.I even made a fan club by your name Steve Ford, and many of the gang members have joined it, here I have an action figure too..." it was Mike and he blabbered nonstop in front of Sera.

He walked towards Steve hand handed him over a toy which didn't look anything like him..

"Yes Mike...now about we talk later....I have so, stuff to handle..."

"Mike can I meet you some other time I have got some stuff to handle " Steve said with a straight face and then looked towards Sera who was still glaring at him with serious eyes.

"Ok master"

Mike left immediately after causing a huge problem...the only thought Stella had was to act her self out of the trouble.

For a while they only stared at each other without words and then finally Steve broke the silence.

"Oh...so it's you Stella told me about...haha..Nice to meet you..."

'Please work please work...'

"Do I look like I am blind....?"

This was the only sentence that escaped Sera's mouth...

Now that Stella knew there was no way out of it, she simply surrendered.

"Ok I can explain, your father started it first... He declared a war against us...what was I suppose to do?

'I tried to explain because I felt like it , I don't know why but I didn't want her to misunderstand me.'

"So the infamous Steve Ford in my father's stories is a girl, that's funny" she said while showing her white teeth.

Sera slowly arose from her seat and walked over to Steve...the situation looked very odd.

"You will not say a word about that..."

Stella stood her grounds and gave out an over powering aura...

"Why should I listen to you?" Sera said with a playful expression.

"Let's make a deal...I will give you whatever you want in return you will keep it a secret..."

The atmosphere was intense and suddenly Sera broke into laughter.

"Hey stop making that bargaining expression....I am just teasing you...why would I even care if you are a girl or s boy" she said while going back to her friendly self.

"Well I do have a condition..."

"What is that?"

"Wanna be friends?"

"Friend? With me? I mean don't you want money or lands etc...like your father?"

Stella looked at her in confusion...

"Do you know when I kept on hearing the name Steve Ford from my father's mouth with disgust and sometimes fear...I had an image in my mind.."

"I thought he was a cold overbearing guy who would be ruthless and stuff...but then I just went on investigating him, it was hard to get anything on him but still my men got some information about him.

He was a man no not a man more like a boy, and in all the information sheets there was not a single bad thing he did" she said while looking at Stella in the eyes.

"It was then I tried to knock some sense into my father's head...but something can never change."

Sera spoke a lot she started talking about things you would only tell a person trust worthy or a close friend, but she kept on talking to Stella about herself as she had known her for centuries.

"Do you know? I might love my father very much, but I hate it even more when he hurts people. I just chose to be a doctor so I could cure people so his sins would get a little lesser if I cure some people."

"I don't have many friends as I am a daughter of an underworld boss, people stick to me for their good and stay away from me out of fear, I am often lonely, so if I can make friends with you at least you won't be sacred of me.." she completed her words and she held her hand out for a handshake .

"Are you sure you want me to be your friend?"

"Why not bro?" And she hugged me tightly

" Now that we are sisters,I want to tell you a secret" she said to me in the ear .

"Go on"

"but before that who is he" she pointed towards a picture of us siblings

"Who, put a finger on it."

Stella said as she could tell who she was pointing towards.

"This one on your right" she pointed her finger towards Al.

"He is Al the one who saved you" Stella said.

"Really!!!... so Al is not the other one who is laughing like a..." she was thinking of a suitable word for Ed who was trying to ruin the family picture.

"Donkey?" I helped her.

"Yes...so about the secret...."

"Hmm..?"

"I think it was him I met yesterday the party...(blush) he even scolded a guy who was misbehaving with me so I followed him out of the venue and then I got drugged" she said still blushing.

"AAnd...?"

"I l..lik..."

"So long story short, you love my brother?"

Stella finished the sentence for her.

"Yes" she was completely a tomato now.

"Look at you, already blushing...come on let's talk about the rest of the stuff on table...in am dying of hunger..."

Things went on so fast and now they were already planning on becoming a family..

In a far far away mansion..Python had a severe flu...or was it... someone planning behind his back..
