The Other Side's

Ice Beams

Since I'm an orphan and Peter is my fiancee, his family held a funeral service for me. Not many came because not many in this city know me.

Roy, the cafe owner and Maya, my co-worker came home last time. Peter escorted them outside and stepped into his father's study.

Doctor Grey Summer stood up, staring out the window. Her mother, Lady Mary Grey, sat in the corner of the sofa. Peter poured two drinks for him and his mother.

"So what's your plan now?" ask Miss Mary

"We'll just go ahead as planned, there's a lot of girls from other cities I can take here."

"With wealth and good looks I don't think anyone can resist me." Peter gulped down his drink expressionlessly, Mistress Mary was just silent

"So Madame Hana called" said Mr Grey

"Well, everything's ready. Tomorrow the blood of his order will be delivered." said Peter

"Crazy woman!" as Mistress Mary

"It's believed that he's a vampire but has never once bitten his neck! Crazyhead!" Mistress Mary finished her drink

"Let it be, the important thing is that he can afford to pay dearly for it." Mr. Grey plays a glass in his hand

"All right! I have to go to the hospital right now, there are some things I need to take care of." Peter stood up and kissed his mother's cheek

"Be careful dear." whispered Lady Mary.

Arriving at Peter's hospital, his personal assistant follows Peter's steps

"How's it?"

"All is ready, ten bags of blood O orders Mrs Hana, a kidney orders Gardenville hospital and a pair of eyes for Mr. Daniel." Lana, the assistant read the order list in her hand

"Perfect! Next week the labyrinth will open, make sure you include healthy participants."

"Good doctor!" Lana then passes leaving Peter alone.

Peter turned on the laptop at the desk, opened one of his social media accounts. His eyes scrutinized every account of the woman who asked him for friendship.

Then his eyes were fixed on the profile of a curly haired sweet girl, he read the profile of the girl carefully. The girl, named Olivia, is from Oldise, a small town in Devana state.

The girl doesn't often upload photos. Most of the photos on the porch are photos of him taking selfies or photos of natural scenery, it seems Olivia is a girl who is covered.

Peter clicked the confirmation button and wrote down the message, inviting him to get to know her more closely. Apparently Olivia was active, she replied to Peter's message a few minutes later.

"Hi too! Is this really you? Peter Grey?" ask Olivia

"Yup of course" replied Peter

"Wow is awesome! Thank you for accepting my friendship request,"

"Key,"

"Are you busy?"

"No, why?"

"Can I make a video call?"

"Yup of course" Peter then gave the girl his phone number.

Olivia called, Peter let it ring, he just stared at the phone screen, then the call stopped by itself.

The call from the girl again appeared on the screen, Peter smiled coldly staring at his phone. He pressed the answer button on the fifth ring

"Hi!" with a much different facial expression, this time Peter looked cheerful.

"Hello! You busy?" ask the girl

"Oh yeah, my assistant came to tell me something,"

"Are you really great, a successful handsome man." Olivia spoke excitedly, her eyes twinkling at Peter. It seemed that the girl admired him greatly.

Peter silently looked at Olivia, making the girl misbehave.

"What's up?" olivia asked, Peter smiled this time. A very seductive smile, every girl who saw him would definitely fall asleep.

"Come here" said Peter half-whispering, his eyes not staring at the girl.

"What's? What did you say?"

"Well, you're right, it's hard to get a good-paying job here,"

"Well! Wait especially? I can find a suitable job here,"

"I used to take nursing school, can I work at your hospital?"

"of course! Come, I guarantee you can give you more than a job. I'm gonna give you a new life,"

"But Lovelock is very far away,"

"Come on! It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, but if you'd rather stay there ...,"

"No ... no .. okay! I'll be there,"

"Smart girl!" Peter blinked his eyes making the girl's face redden

"Tell me when you get to Lovelock, okay?" Peter broke off the conversation, though,

"Prepare everything, the girl must have arrived in these two or three days." Peter gave an order to Lana who entered his room shortly before the conversation was over.

The thin woman with an expressionless face nodded, thrusting a file at Peter for signature.

Two days later Peter's phone rang, Olivia's voice was heard across the street

"Hi!" sapana

"Hello Olivia, where are you now?"

"I've arrived at Lovelock. I just got off the train,"

"Okey okay. Can you go to the Alaska Hotel? Wait for me there, once my operation is over I'll see you."

"Okay, I'll be there." Peter smiled coldly and then pressed the intercom button on his desk

"He's headed for the Alaska Hotel."

An hour later Peter is seen entering the lobby of the Alaska Hotel, entering the elevator to the fifth floor. Peter knocks on the door of room five one three, Olivia's head emerging from behind the door.

Peter stepped towards the balcony, Olivia standing beside him. Peter looked happy, a smile never escaped his lips, making the girl several times bowed in shame

"Have you eaten?" ask Peter

"Yes, that was it,"

"You must be tired after a long journey,"

"Not really,"

"So does anyone know you're here?"

"No, I ran away from home. My parents never let me find a job out of town,"

"Oh yeah? Well, it's good that way, I mean, it's your chance to prove that you can succeed without them?"

"Hmm .. well," muttered Olivia while bowing her head.

Peter raised Olivia's chin, they stared at each other. Peter's face approached, Olivia looked resigned. Peter then landed his lips on Olivia's red lips, momentarily making the girl lulled.

Slowly Peter grabbed something from his pants pocket, something flat and shiny. Peter stuck the object into Olivia's stomach without hesitation, the girl's eyes widened in surprise.

He retreated while holding the object stuck in his stomach, then collapsed to the floor, not far from Peter. Peter opens the room door, Lana and a man appear with a special bag in his hand.

Lana quickly stripped Olivia's body, removing her vital organs. Peter watched their work, he cleaned his lips with a piece of tissue, threw it on the floor and stepped on it like something disgusting. It didn't take long for Lana and the guy to be done.

"Many are still good" said Lana without asking,

"A pair of eyes, a heart and a pair of kidneys that are still fresh, we can also still get some pockets of blood." Peter smiled with satisfaction at hearing that.

Lana and Peter leave the hotel room. The man still lives to clean the room and clean up Olivia's body.

I was so surprised to see what just happened. The Peter I've been following for a few days isn't the man I've known all along. My Peter is a kind, friendly and very sweet man.

While this man was a cold-blooded killer, he did all of it without hesitation, like something he was used to and was already trained for.

Was Peter that really that moment? Is this what he did when he wasn't with me? Then if he's used to killing girls he knows, why doesn't he kill me? Oh Peter! If only I hadn't seen all this.
