35 Chapter 35: Don’t Kill Humans

As they came home, not everyone could believe it. Maria had returned and was busy preparing meals at the dining table. The home is clean; it tastes lovely, and they can see themselves on the floor like a mirror.

“Wow”

Emy’s siblings quickly rushed to meet Maria. To the woman’s surprise, they hugged her. Reed merely stared at María. Maria took the arms of the youngsters who had embraced her.

“Eat up. I know you’re exhausted from the journey,” Maria said.

Eddie, Emy, and Reed pursued the kids to their seats. When everyone had taken their seats, they all stared at Maria, who was still amazed.

“Don’t you enjoy the food I cooked?” Maria asked.

“Why don’t you eat with us, Maria?” Eddie asked.

Maria cast another look at Reed. She sat down in the empty seat with a small nod. She was further astonished when Marcus stood up and handed him a plate and silverware. Marcus grinned as he stared at her. It was the first time she’d eaten with Reed, her king. She was confused and unsure of what to do. Reed got notice of this.

“Ethan, Maria seemed to be ashamed. Why don’t you put something on her plate and let’s get started?” Reed said.

.....

Ethan instantly rose and followed Reed, but Maria stopped him and smiled. “Let’s eat Ethan,” Maria said.

After a few minutes, Emy cast a peek at Maria. It pleased them to eat at that time. Emily’s siblings seemed to like the food she prepared.

“Maria, why did you leave the hospital? Are you feeling well now?” Emily asked.

“What happened to me was nothing more than a scratch. I’m also accustomed to the situation.” Maria said.

“Why? What happened to Maria?” Eddie asked.

Emily was taken aback for a second. She recalls Reed erased his family’s, as well as Jasmin and Avery’s, memories of what happened at the resort.

“Ah,” Maria said, looking at Reed, who was expressionless.

“She slipped,” Emy said.

“Are you all okay now, Maria? Are you hurt?” Eddie asked.

“I’m OK. Thank you for asking.” Maria said.

Emy gave a little smile.

——

They left Maria and Emy in the kitchen after dinner. She assisted her in putting away their plates. Emy gave Maria a sidelong glance.

“Maria...” Emy said. Maria looked at Emy. “I haven’t been able to thank you enough for saving us.”

“It’s nothing,” Maria said. “By the way, I’m heading to the grocery store today.”

Emy smiled. “I’ll tag along.”

“Huh?”

“You know that we are the only two women in the house. It would be fine if we could become friends.” Emy said.

“Friend?” Mary asked.

Emy gave a nod. “The fact is that we don’t need a housekeeper since my siblings and I grew up knowing how to do housework. Reed was the only one who insisted for reasons I don’t understand.” Emy cast another look towards Maria. “So what? Do you agree? ”

For a brief while, Maria was astonished. “If that’s what you desire.”

Emy smiled. “That’s something you can do later.” Let’s start with a go to the supermarket. ”

Maria gave a small nod. They were ready to exit the dining room when they ran into Reed. He noticed Emy was in a rush.

“Where are you going?” Reed asked.

“Oh, Maria and I are heading to the grocery shop,” Emy said as she climbed the stairs.

Reed looked at Maria.

——-

“Aren’t you sick of my face? We’re always together.”

Reed frowned. They were in the garage at the time, and Emy was stopping Reed from joining them at the supermarket. Reed refuses to agree, and the two argue. Maria stood close and just listened to the two of them.

“How could I get tired of looking at your face? I wish I could see you all the time.” Reed said. “Wait, are you sick of me hanging to you all the time?”

“You know, Reed, I also need “me” time,” Emy said.

“But,” Reed objected.

“Reed,” Emy said.

Reed breathed deeply. “How do you get to the supermarket?” Reed asked.

“Taxi. We’ll take a cab.” Emy said.

“All okay, haist. Make a cab reservation.” Reed said.

Emy grinned and then left Reed in the garage with Maria. He turned to face Maria right away.

“You’re going to do what you’re going to do, Maria,” Reed said. “Your queen doesn’t want me to come along.”

Maria gave a little laugh. Reed’s brows furrowed. “What’s funny?” Reed asked.

“Give it to the queen first. Perhaps she misses the things she used to do. She is accustomed to being alone,” Mary said.

“Maria, hurry, the cab is here,” Emy urged.

“We’re leaving, my king,” Mary said as he looked at Reed.

—–

Reed became agitated as Emy and Maria left. He wasn’t used to not seeing Emy, so he instantly followed them. Maria mentioned which grocery store they were heading to. Reed emerged from the grocery shop and approached Emy and Maria. He smiled as he noticed the two. Emy picks up the groceries while Maria pulls the pushcart.

When Reed walked beside her, Maria turned away. Reed put one finger to her lips, hoping not to disturb Maria. Maria nodded slightly.

“Have you known Reed for a long time, Maria?” Emy asked.

Mary and Reed both looked at Emy. She didn’t look at Mary, who was busy getting the thing she was going to buy.

“It’s been a long time, Emy,” Mary said.

“Has he brought a woman into the house where we live yet?” Emy asked.

Reed chuckles. ‘Why would I bring a woman there?’ ‘

“There is no other woman but you, Emy,” Mary said.

Emy shifted her gaze to Maria. “Really? Was I the only one he brought to that house?”

“What made you ask Emy so suddenly?” Maria asked.

“It’s impossible,” Emy said.

Mary said nothing else. They finished their shopping only a few moments later. Emy and Maria waited in line for a cab. Reed quickly left after noticing that the two were fine. He would just wait for them at their home.

Maria looked around, but she didn’t see Reed again. The taxi pulled up in front of them and they promptly placed their things in the compartment.

—-

As the car passed them, Maria noticed the driver glancing at them. Maria realized that the cab they were traveling in was not moving properly when they were far from the mall they had gone to. Mary moved her gaze to Emy. She grabbed her head as though she wasn’t feeling good. Maria took another look at the driver and observed that he had a facemask.

Black smoke flew into the air from her palms. Maria looked across at Emy, who was soundly sleeping. The car abruptly came to a stop in a dark area distant from the houses. She believes it hid them behind a huge subdivision.

When the driver turned to face Maria, she claimed to be unconscious. He stepped out of the car, and four more men approached. It was all enveloped by black smoke.

The sight caused Maria to frown. Those are humans on their way to becoming demons. As they opened the door without expecting to be attacked by Maria. The men were astounded by what Maria had done.

Meanwhile, a black smoke emerged near Reed’s ear. He was playing cards with Eddie. Reed suddenly stands startled.

Eddie said, “Reed...”

“I’m just going somewhere, Tatay,” Reed said as he dashed into the kitchen.

When Reed appears out of nowhere, he sees many groups of guys, including Maria’s opponent. He believes he is on this trip. He approached Emy immediately after seeing her unconscious in the car.

“Wifey...” Reed patted her cheek. “Wifey...” Emy was dead asleep and didn’t notice what he had done.

Reed fixed his gaze on Maria. He knew Maria could kill those people, but he wouldn’t let them just keep watching Maria, since those individuals had done awful things to Emy.

“Which of them, Maria?” Reed asked as he came next to Maria after throwing a man into the paddy field.

“Left third,” Maria said.

Reed raised an eyebrow and swiftly approached the man. To the amazement of the man, he grabbed him by the neck.

“You’re a human jerk after hurting my queen,” Reed said.

Fear could be visible on the man’s face. Reed raised an eyebrow when he spotted the black smoke. When he looked around, he noticed the others had black smoke as well.

.....

Reed laughs. “You will also serve as my warriors...”

“What?” The man asked. He fought to break Reed’s grasp on his neck, but Reed raised his body even higher.

Reed is uninterested in the other demons around since all he wants to do is mess with the man who hurt Emy.

“I’m going to kill you right now,” Reed said.

The wind suddenly blew into his ear. ‘Kill him, and all you’ve worked for will be forgotten.’ I’ll take you back to the war, where you must have died. ‘

Reed was astonished and tossed the man away. It hit other friends as well. Reed moved closer to Emy.

“You’ll take care of them, Maria,” Reed told her.

Mary nodded slightly. Reed, on the other hand, picked up the sleeping Emy, and even the items they had purchased teleported with Reed.

Maria’s attackers all passed out.

A cab honked outside the police station, which astonished the officers. When they opened the door, they could see how the 16 people inside the car. The automobile continues to honk. Maria smiled as the cops pulled the men from the car one by one.

“I’m going home,” Maria remarked as she turned her back on the cops.
