Forbidden Love: Angel’s Seduction - Chapter 252
Selene and Eros visited Samantha in her shop today. They would be finalizing the Blackpearl Project Launching and Kick-Off. It would be held by tomorrow.
“Oh, Gabriel! You are back!” Samantha greeted Eros with a bright smile. She was glad to see him.
Eros smiled back at her. “Hi, Sam. Long time no see!”
“Yeah!” She mumbled then she turned to Selene. “How are you?” Samantha and Selene exchanged kisses on their cheeks before Samantha invited them inside her office.
“I’m feeling good now. Thank you for taking good care of me when I was sick.” Selene was feeling grateful to Samantha.
“No need to mention it. I’m your friend, Selene!”
Samantha asked her secretary to prepare snacks for Selene and Eros. The three of them settled down inside her office.
“Hmm, by the way, where’s Azrael?” Samantha asked Selene and Eros since she was not used to not seeing him today.
For the past few days, Azrael was always coming with Selene wherever she went. He looked like Selene’s personal bodyguard.
Selene and Eros exchanged glances with one another. They felt saddened as they remembered that Azrael already went back to the Netherworld.
They wondered if he was doing fine. They hoped Zaki didn’t give Azrael a hard time. What if he suddenly punished him? They were a little bit worried about Azrael. They never knew when they would be seeing each other again.
“Azrael went for vacation as well,” Selene said as an alibi.
Samantha looked at Selene strangely. She was puzzled why whenever someone was away, either Gabriel or Azrael, Selene was using the ‘On Vacation’ alibi.
“Hmm, This is strange. When Gabriel was away, Azrael was always with you. And now that Azrael is not around, Gabriel is here to replace him. Hmm, are you two Selene’s bodyguards?” Samantha asked Eros, lifting an eyebrow.
Selene and Eros smiled awkwardly. Their roles in Selene’s life were more than just a bodyguard.
“I’m still working for Selene… and temporarily living in the mansion. I can also be her bodyguard. I am an all-around guy. I can cook, wash clothes, clean the house, and much more.” Eros said truthfully, flaunting his skills.
“Wow, you are a wife material, Gabriel! I envy Azrael! How come he was able to capture you?” Samantha uttered, pretending to be sad for not having Eros.
“Cough! Cough!” Eros choked on his saliva.
‘A wife material for Azrael?! No way. I can be a good husband material for Selene, but not Azrael!’ Eros thought to himself while trying to maintain his smile.
Selene could only giggle since Samantha was still thinking that Eros was gay and that he was in a relationship with Azrael.
After catching up together, the three of them started planning and working for the preparations of the Blackpearl Project Launching and Kick-Off.
When Selene went to see the designs made by Samantha in the next room, Samantha and Eros got the opportunity to talk privately.
Eros remembered the favor Azrael asked him before he left the human world. He asked Eros to pass a message to Samantha.
“Sam…”
“Yes, Gab?”
Eros and Samantha were sitting on the sofa, sorting some papers.
“Before Azrael left, he talked to me and he wanted me to relay a message for you.”
“A message for me?” Samantha didn’t expect to hear that. Suddenly, she missed Azrael’s presence.
Eros nodded his head and began telling her what Azrael wanted to tell Samantha.
“He said he wanted to thank you for the help that you’ve given him. He really appreciated your kindness and thoughtfulness. He said he was glad that he made friends with you. You are such an amazing woman. He would never forget those moments he shared with you. He wished you well. Just take care of yourself always and… be happy.”
Samantha was taken aback when she heard that. Azrael was a man of a few words but he asked Eros to deliver a long message like this.
Then Samantha just found herself becoming teary.
“Eh, why do I feel like Azrael just said goodbye? Is he not coming back?” Samantha asked Eros anxiously.
Eros just scratched his face. He didn’t have a definite answer for that. Once Azrael went back to his job as a grim reaper, he could no longer pretend to be human. He would be occupied by doing his grim reaper’s tasks.
“Hey, don’t overthink. Are you sad about him?” Eros smiled at her.
Samantha didn’t deny it as she nodded her head.
“Of course, I will be sad. For the past few days, I became closer to him. You, Selene, and Azrael are my new friends. I like the three of you. I wish we could bond more together. I will miss Azrael for sure,” Samantha said truthfully.
“Sigh, too bad… I didn’t get to say goodbye to him properly. What if it will take lots of time before he can come back? Anyway, Gab… do you have his contact number? At least, I can try calling him once in a while to check how he is doing.”
Eros didn’t know what to say. Azrael didn’t have a cellphone, so how could he give her his number?
“Oh, I forgot his number… he told me that he lost his phone just a few days ago.”
Samantha arched her eyebrows while eyeing Eros suspiciously.
“Hey, Gab! Are you telling the truth? I didn’t know that you are very possessive of Azrael. You just don’t want to give me his number,” Samantha said with a pout.
Eros could only smile sheepishly. Maybe he could joke around and use this as his alibi.
“Sorry, Sam. I am afraid that you will steal him away from me. Besides, I’m already jealous because he spent more time with you and Selene.”
“Eh, seriously Gab?! Can I smack your head? Ahem, by the way… how is it? Did Azrael… ” Samantha looked at Eros with her teasing smile.
“Did what?” Eros asked her, puzzled.
Samantha leaned closer and whispered something in his ear.
“Before he left, did he kiss you? How is it? How does it feel? Is he good?”
“Ehhh?!! Why are you asking me this, Sam?” Eros didn’t know whether to cry or laugh after hearing her.
“Azrael asked me to teach him how to kiss so I showed him some videos. So I wonder if he applied it to you. Hehe, I’m curious if he did a good job! Does it feel good? Is he good at kissing?”
Eros: “…”
