"Since when did you become a garbage collector?" Ash asked Leona who had just come and stood in front of her.
Leona frowned — confused and completely clueless with what Ash had just said. Is it just that cheesy greeting or jokes of young people today? She thought. Not getting an answer and even not getting any response from Leona, Ash got up - standing face to face with Leona. He tilted his head slightly — tugging at the small leaves that clung to Leona's long mane. One by one.
"Is it so nice to find dry leaves in winter?" he asked spontaneously. His hands were still busy throwing away the remnants of the leaves that stuck to the girl's blonde hair.
It wasn't long before Archie and Gabe arrived. They shouted the names Ash and Leona out loud. Leona spontaneously turned to her left. The mouth valve touched Ash's left cheek - making the coral colored lip print perfectly stick there. Ash and Leona rushed back two steps
"Sorry, Lyla. You can not join us" said Leona. Dhshe raised her gaze slightly – staring at Ash who was frozen at her side then led him away from Lyla's face."Bye, Lyla!" sneered Leona.One by one, the rest of them joined in awkwardly saying goodbye to Lyla, then ran after her, following Ash and Leona. They managed to annoy Lyla and wake up something that Lyla didn't even expect to appear. On their way to catch up with Ash, Archie and Gabe gave each other questioned glances.They were surprised to see Ash who looked different from usual. This time, for the first time Ash didn't give any defense when Lyla was being treated poorly by others. Even Ash casually walked with Leona – letting Leona hold his hand without protesting. Like he used to do when Lyla suddenly embraced him. Gabe suddenly stopped in his tracks while grabbing Archie's shoulder. The owner turned his head, looked at Gabe with an eyebrow raised.
Ash is the type of guy who is. He hates taking care of complicated things, much less taking care of things that are beyond his control. However, when Loui asked him to cooperate with Leona, even asked him to take care of each other, for some reason he could only obey without asking.Maybe, Ash just agreed to Loui's request because Loui was in control of his mind, or maybe he didn't want to argue and even made a mess like what he did a few days ago when he visited Mitchell Hills. Residence of the Argent Family.However, as Loui said before, he would know firsthand the reason why he and Leona had to take care of each other. First, because he is the last Alpha of the Cooper family lineage, and Leona is the last pureblood of the Argent family lineage. Both the Cooper Family and the Argent Family, both of them are descendants of a clan of great knights who are assigned to maintain the balance of their res
That afternoon Leona and Malia spent their free time reading books in the small library in their house.They have been doing that for the past three days. Schools were deliberately closed because the streets were covered in snow due to a big storm that occurred a few days ago. During those three days Leona tried hard to change her bad words with kind words or keep her mouth shut when she couldn't find the right words to say. Once Leona cursed, one by one, her favorite things would be burned by Malia – nothing left – according to her agreement. Malia accidentally heard a small argument between Leona and Ash. Ah, actually it wouldn't be right if it was called overhearing. Because the volume of Leona and Ash's voice at that time was loud enough, so that Malia and Archie and Gabe could hear all their conversation clearly. Malia heard clearly that Ash ask
"Leona!""Haish! Sh-" Leona rubbed her face when suddenly Rosalie appeared in front of her."You almost swore, my dear." Rosalie teased while pointing her right index finger in front of Leona."Mom. Come on! Don't try to make things difficult for me." Leona whined.Rosalie chuckled at the little whimper of her daughter. She gave her a faint nod as she gently stroked the top of Leona's head. "Meet Ash for a bit, it seems he has something important to talk to you about.""I have to hunt, ma'am." said Leona annoyed."You can hunt after you finish your business with Ash." suggested Rosalie. "Or... Maybe, Ash came here knowing this was your hunting schedule?"Leona turned around while rolling her eyes when she caught the seductive gaze of her mother. She let out an annoyed chuckle and sped off leaving Rosalie alone behind there."Love you too, Leona." Rosalie muttered with her trad
"Help me and Loui. Mom asked us to make cream soup for her." said Luca to Leona.Leona rolled her eyes in annoyance as she straightened her slightly messy clothes, then got up from her seat. "Okay. I'll help you." Leona replied resignedly.Luca's arrival at the library brought Malia a bit of a breath of fresh air. Malia felt so hungry and was getting bored. But because she had promised to accompany and help Leona control all her emotions, Malia couldn't just leave her alone.However, when Leona was about to catch up with Luca who had left the room first, Malia suddenly stopped Leona's movement. "Let me do it for you, Leona. Seems someone will come and wanted to see you." Malia swiftly ran out after Luca.When Malia almost reached the kitchen, suddenly Luca sped up and stood in front of her. "Hey! Where are you going?" Luca folded his arms – staring at the girl."I- I... want to help you and Loui." answer Malia.
That morning, the Argent Family's residence seemed quieter than usual. Almost all of the inhabitants went hunting into the forest, except for Luca and Malia. They were still struggling with thick blankets in their respective rooms."Ugh!" Malia stretched her body to the left side, then rolled to the right side while extending her right hand to the side table, groping all over the top surface, looking for her favorite flat object which for some time had been lying face down on the fur carpet beside the bed.The girl squirmed again as she lowered her tiny legs from the bed. She groaned again when her right foot accidentally stepped on the object she had been looking for. "Ouch!" She shouted angrily.Malia immediately lifted her leg, then bent down and lifted her cellphone from the carpet. She checked some messages that came into her cellphone, but suddenly a red liquid slipped out of one of her nostrils.Immed
BUKH!Malia bounces. She fell to her knees when her tiny body managed to hit someone who was also running from the other direction. The girl shrieked as she rubbed her buttocks as she managed to get up and stand up straight again."Why are you running, huh?" Leona asked.She was surprised when she caught the strange behavior that Malia was showing to her. It was unusual for Malia to act suspiciously like that. There must be something. Leona thought.Malia raised her gaze. Staring at someone who was standing tall with a towering body in front of her. She chuckled as Leona folded her arms and looked at her questioningly."Need someone to talk to, right?" Leona asked.Malia nodded doubtfully. She immediately brought her legs to follow Leona who had walked first to her room. The two girls sat side by side on the edge of the bed. Then simultaneously both of them lay down on their res
Luca was put in a special room. He looked down languidly as he recalled the stupidity he had done to Malia. If his family had come and acted too late, Malia might have been killed.He was grateful for that, and at the same time he felt ashamed because he still couldn't control himself well. Like his brother and sister, so is his mother, Rosalie.One by one the members of the Argent Family left the isolation room. Each of them closed the three layers of doors that protected the room. But soon someone came back and opened the door one by one. Then closed it again and stood straight in front of Luca while folding her arms."Follow me!" Leona said. "I never agreed every time you asked to be locked up like this." she continued. "You have to practice, Luca!"Luca looked up, staring at his sister who seemed so towering in front of him.Leona looked more serious than usual. She stomped her right foot as she stretched out her
