Blood Awakening: The Strongest Hybrid and His Vampire Bride

Those words were her final input. Then she started showing Nikolai images of apartments that were mid to high-grade but not overly expensive near the city centre. One was even close to the Scarlet Group\'s main building and would be quite useful for him when Selene called.

Then, rather than a sports car, she showed him a high-grade executive car that cost quite a lot but was better suited to be called elegant than showing off some sports car.

Thankfully, she seemed to understand what he needed more than Nikolai himself. He honestly told her about his past, how his father was sick, and how he finally found a high-paying job, and that was no longer an issue.

He wanted to enjoy life and the things he missed over the last ten years.

****

\'To think she would work for me part-time. I might have offered her too much, as the average annual wage in this country is $32,000—because he understood that the things she could give were things Nikolai needed desperately.

This amount might have taken aback Nikolai in the past, or even two days ago, but while he was busy fighting with Nikita and enjoying the taste of a sexy D-cup vampire. His father seemed to have started some dangerous work... \'No, he is probably doing the same as I am.\'

[DAD Deposited: $5,000,000]

[Purchased M9 Excelsior (CUSTOM): -$150,000]

"Boss, how does it feel? After this, though, you will need to drive yourself. Do you have an updated licence?"

Since she hired her, the notes on Sarah changed once again, though not greatly, and she began to call Nikolai Boss while driving or helping.

[Notes: Eager to appease and impress her boss, she used all her connections, extremely shocked her wages were more than her full-time job, and Nikolai added fair incentives for her to earn bonuses. Her feelings of affection still linger, but respect and admiration are now the highest factors of her attitude—a fickle woman with romance.

But her business and work ethic is second to only Nikolai himself.]

The agreed contract was flexible for now, but once he found what he wanted to invest and use his money for, she would take a permanent position in the company and help him out.

"I\'m fine, Sarah. This apartment is the one you rented for me for the next year? It\'s huge..."

The apartment complex was like a towering sword standing in defiance of the sun, its beautiful exterior coated in one-way glass, both bulletproof and resistant to the sunlight. Although he didn\'t turn to ash, Nikolai found the sunlight made him irritable and a little lethargic.

"It\'s beautiful, though way out of my price range. It has an indoor gym, pool and private member functions are included in the extra apartment fee and management costs you paid, so whatever you feel like doing will be fine. On top of that, you mentioned that you work nearby, so I also purchased the parking spot that is located here."

Sarah turned the car into a hidden underground black door; it felt like a sci-fi movie as a scanner flashed over their car before the door lifted from the ground like a lift and pulled the car into a hidden tunnel; the air became fresh and cool the moment the roof sealed.

The sleek black Excelsior with smooth curves, one-way glass within police regulation, bulletproof chassis, wheels and windows and many other features that Sarah added because Nikolai mentioned his work could become dangerous.

\'This woman is too efficient, I guess she\'s aiming for the bonuses in the contract that we agreed upon... to think she knows someone who owns a law firm and got the documents and agreements finished within two hours...\'

"One day, if you serve me well, I am sure you will reach this level. You should take some night classes or register for a business management course."

Nikolai didn\'t say these things for no reason—Eliza constantly gave him tips and advised him throughout the day.

Whoever programmed her had lots of experience in both business and other roles that you would expect from some kind of business heiress like Selene.

[Take it slow, Nikolai.]

[One step at a time, you can learn yourself, but also, when others can focus all their time on learning, until then, you can rely on them. I will make sure not to recommend the wrong people. Sarah Maddison is someone who will not betray you later for money if you treat her correctly now.]

"R-Really... I am just happy with a mid-tier home... However, if the boss is saying that. I wonder if you can help with the costs?"

[Accept, although it is a high expense. The lack of debt puts Sarah\'s mind at ease. It will help her grow faster and garner more loyalty.]

"Hmmm, let\'s see. Since you are getting the qualifications for work, shouldn\'t it come under the clause we wrote about work-related expenses that I would cover?"

Eliza didn\'t tell Nikola that because of his natural aura and charm Sarah would unlikely leave his company, even if he mistreated her. Instead, she wanted to grow him into something beyond just a monster fighting in the shadows.

"E-EH?! What kind of employer accepts so easily, Boss? You have to think of yourself!"

"What are you talking about? Without you, there is no way I can reach the top, Sarah. Find out how much the courses you wish to enter cost and let me know. Let\'s say you can take one course that isn\'t business-related. You mentioned you wanted to study Language at the store the other day, so make sure to add that to the list.

Call it my appreciation; if you feel guilt, then work harder to pay off these debts for your future."

"B-Boss..."

To Nikolai, he just spoke his feelings and thoughts; their car finally arrived at the thirteenth-floor parking lot, and what amazed him was there were only three spots, all with thirteen painted on them.

"This apartment complex only has one apartment per floor?!" Nikolai asked in a shocked tone.

"Of course... Boss, this entire floor is why the rent was so high. There is a private pool, but it\'s on the small side, and the grand pool is on the second floor, while most of the activities and apartment areas are on the first four floors."

Her goal was to make him surpass the Tepes family, inherit the Báthory name, and carry the Volkov legacy.

[Step by Step for as long as I can help you...]

"Good work, Sarah. Thanks for the hard work."

"Not at all; you are my boss. I got to earn points while there\'s no competition right? Hehe."

"True, it seems a little awkward for you to leave according to this brochure unless I give you one of the five spare keys... So take one since you are currently my Personal Assistant, Secretary and Business planner all in one."

"A-Ah... yeah.... thank you, Boss." Sarah took the red keycard with the dark red background and glowing white thirteen and blushed. Though she knew it was impossible and already tried to break Nikolai\'s guard and seduce him, she found herself seduced in retaliation.

"Boss, I will take an ober and return for now."

"Don\'t you want to come see the inside?" Nikolai asked, with an excited gleam in his eyes.

"No sir, maybe in the future, but thank you for the invite!"

[Ordered Premium Class Ober for Sarah M: -$50]

"I just ordered you a car; I\'ll message you the details now.]

[To Sarah M (Hard working beauty)]

—Here is the link to your OBER: www.Ober.org/95januqlaj1

Thank you for the hard work, Sarah—I look forward to keeping you by my side for a long time.

-

She swallowed her breath and held the key tightly, pushing those feelings to the back of her mind, and watched as Nikolai walked ahead.

\'Nikolai, thank you for helping me. I feel we are too similar; my mother needed this money for her kidney, while your father was his heart. I will not forget this moment and help you gave, even in a decade.\'

***

Nikolai waved her off, knowing the security would allow no one inside but those given the right code so that Sarah could sit in the VIP waiting lounge downstairs in complete safety. Thus, his mind turned to tomorrow night.

At the Class meeting, he now had a high-class car, and the expensive suit ordered to match his body perfectly arrived and was delivered to this apartment thanks to Sarah working for Verface and giving the details via her workpad.

\'Though it cost an extra $1000 due to changing the express VIP delivery an hour before they left... Haha.\'

"There are many people I can\'t wait to see... Did Nikita agree to come with me? I even bought a dress just for her... Did it arrive in time, I should check the tracking."

Before he could open the application, there was a beeping and vibration as a message came in. The moment he opened his screen, he almost choked on his spit because there was an image of Nikita with her top pulled up attached...

\'This girl...\'

[From Nikita (Tiny Beauty)]

—Hehe~ thank you for last night. I can\'t wait for tomorrow, the dress was so beautiful, here\'s a little reward.

Tomorrow, you won\'t escape me. (Kissing cat emoji x 10)
