The Enemy's Kiss Chapter 57 – I Am Going With Gen
(Brielle’s POV)A chance of a lifetime…The waves lazily lapped on the shore, and strangely, it was like a piece of music encouraging me to run away from home. I lifted my hand, touching my neck, remembering Cole’s bites. I closed my eyes, thinking how glorious our lovemaking was that it connected not only our bodies but also our hearts and souls. I licked my lips, recalling the sweet taste of his blood.A chance of a lifetime…Sighing, I opened my eyes, thinking of what I wanted because I did not want anything, only Cole. To everyone living on this island, they thought being born as Gabriel’s daughter was a privilege. If only they knew that my birthright was a curse, already dictating my fate on my first cry to the day I die.If Bryce didn’t ask for my hand for marriage, I knew another man would pop into my father’s office to propose to me, not because they love or care for me, but because marrying me would be an opportunity to step up in the Order. What I didn’t understand was how o
The Enemy's Kiss Chapter 58 – My Final Decision
(Brielle’s POV)Giving up, I got up from the bed and let my eyes wander around my bedroom, looking for something unusual. Sleep evaded me the whole night, and as I tossed and turned last night, my heart kept switching sides, making its own decisions, but as I sat on the edge of my bed, I made my final choice.I would run away from home.The thought of running away with Gen was tempting, but I would never risk the Kirkwood’s safety. “Good morning,” Nina greeted, smiling softly as she opened the door. “Your friend, Gen, is waiting for you. She’s in the dining room with your parents.”I raised my eyebrows, glancing at the time to check if I had gotten up from my bed late, but the time on my cell phone’s screen told me it was only six thirty in the morning. Sighing, unsure if it was only her excitement about leaving, that’s why she was early, or maybe she wanted to make sure I was coming today.“Tell her I’m coming,” I said, standing up and walking to the bathroom without looking back a
The Enemy's Kiss Chapter 59 – The Gift
(Brielle’s POV)“Let me drive,” Gen said.She beat my hand in opening the car’s handle, stopping me from opening the door on the driver’s seat as soon as the ferry crossed the island. When I didn’t move, she blinked, showing me her puppy eyes while her mouth was downturned.“Don’t do that, Gen. You looked weird,” I chuckled, giving her the key.I walked quietly to the other side of the car, hoping to shush my heart from hammering in my chest and creating a deafening sound as I thought of how to escape later. I wished to tell Gen about it, but it was better that she didn’t know anything. If I tell her my plan, she will surely share it with Kione, and what will stop her from mentioning it to her brother?“Find me an ATM first,” I reminded Gen as I entered the passenger’s seat.She grinned amusedly. “Of course, rich kid,” she teased me. “God, if my father would do that, I’d be ecstatic. The last time he transferred money into my account was for my tuition in College… and that was… ages a
The Enemy's Kiss Chapter 60 – Good Job, Gen
(Brielle’s POV)“Did you know how dangerous this is?” Cole muttered angrily but grabbed my hand and gently pulled me into his arms.He sounded furious, but his touch said otherwise. He cupped my face, studying my face like I was some spirit that would be gone in a few seconds.“Cole,” I whimpered, staring at his gloriously beautiful face, drowning myself in his blue eyes before I raised my heel to press my lips on his.Not caring about the people around us, I held on to his shoulders when I felt his hands move over the back of my neck and crush my mouth with his fierce kiss. My heart ached over his molten-hot kiss, changing my mind many times, switching from leaving home, running away with Cole, and forgetting who I was.Ichiro cleared his throat, but I heard Lucilla hiss at him. “Leave the love birds alone,” she muttered lazily, her high heels clanking on the floor as she walked. A smile escaped my lips as Cole eased back and pressed his forehead into mine. He lifted his hand, smo
The Enemy's Kiss Chapter 61 – Who Is The Traitor
(Brielle’s POV)“Brielle!” Cole called me, offering me his hand.I held the pit’s edge, but if I lifted one hand, I would slip and fall into the abyss. I cried, thinking this was not a win-win situation for us because if I grabbed his hand, we would fall together. Instead of taking his hand, I released both hands to the edge, accepting my defeat in an unknown battle.It was a dream.As I slowly opened my eyes, I found myself in my bedroom… I was sent back to a place I could not consider home anymore.My chest raised and fell as I thought of Giles’ last words.‘Good job, Gen!’It began with a sniffle, then became an uncontrollable sob when I recalled what had happened. I didn’t need to guess where they were now because I was sure the Order had the Kirkwood imprisoned in an underground cell, heavily guarded by other hunters. It would be impossible for me to get in, and even if I had my chance, I didn’t know if I would have the courage to face him.The sudden opening of the door stopped
The Enemy's Kiss Chapter 62 – Escaping… Not the Solution
(Brielle’s POV)“Brielle, please… at least, listen to me.” She gripped my hands harder.I shook my head, thinking when the tears would ever stop flowing. Gen made me believe that we could be free… that we could escape this place, but after what I witnessed, I would never get myself to believe in her.She sniffled. “Kione will die. They locked them up without helping her.”“She will die because of you,” I murmured mercilessly at her, hoping my words would pierce her heart if she were truly in love with Kione.Gen released my hand, her shoulders shaking from her sobbing.“I have no choice left,” Gen whispered. “Giles sent Bryce and me to spy on you and Cole, but I didn’t expect to fall in love with Kione.” She pressed her lips tightly, suppressing her sob.Silence sat between us for a few minutes, and her cry was already getting on my nerves. If Gen only knew how much I wanted to strangle her. However, killing her would not release Cole and the others from the cell.“You knew from the b
The Enemy's Kiss Chapter 63 – Who Are You
(Brielle’s POV)“Why don’t we talk in the living room?” His forehead creased as his eyes wandered around my bedroom. “Or… in the garden.”“Scared to be alone with your fiancée, Bryce?” I smirked, extending my arm and pointing at the chair near the window.I locked the door and sat on the edge of my bed across from him. After a long silence, I stood up and pulled off the engagement ring, putting it on the table beside his chair along with my favorite dagger.“Let me see Cole for the last time, Bryce,” I said, trying to calm my heart, unsure if my plan would work.He shook his head. I was expecting that already, but I would not face him without thoroughly considering my game plan. My eyes narrowed at the two precious things on the table.“Take the engagement ring. I am not marrying you, Bryce,” I muttered sternly. “I love Cole -”“He’s a vampire! An outcast,” He growled in a low tone.I scoffed, raising my eyebrows at him. “An outcast?” I nodded and walked toward the window, pinning my
The Enemy's Kiss Chapter 64 – The Escape
(Brielle’s POV)Vampires were soulless killers. They are demons that lurked in darkness and looked at humans as prey. Despite their divine beauty and immortality, they were cursed to live in the dark and considered a threat to the Order.Their evolution in folklore somehow changed the ideals of humans about them, but even until now, they were considered mythical creatures, undead that would sometimes play a heroic part in the movies or books or a villain that consumed the blood of their victims.I threw away the book I was reading. Everything I learned from the institutions was irrelevant to me now.Cole is different. The Kirkwood is different.I stopped pacing the bedroom an hour ago. Instead of walking around and thinking of how to escape, I put my chance on Nina. I lay on my bed, covering my body with a blanket just in case my parents would come to check on me. Beneath it, I was fully dressed and had put on every dagger I could find in the bedroom.As the darkness began to spread i
