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
The Enemy's Kiss Chapter 65 – The Waiting
(Brielle’s POV)I managed to get out of the perimeter of our house without being noticed. Having the residential area and the woods as my playground when I was young made it easier to leave without being noticed. I sauntered into the dark, not bothering to use a flashlight or anything that would catch anyone’s attention if a hunter was walking or patrolling at this hour.Without anything to guide me but my instinct, I tracked the course Nina mentioned. A few minutes later, I heard two faint voices talking in the dark woods. Gen was sitting on a tree stump while Nina stood before her.“Nina,” I murmured, getting their attention.“Brielle,” Gen stood up with hope in her voice.“What’s the plan?” I asked Nina, ignoring Gen. “Nina, I hope you’re not planning to throw Gen and me into our death.”“I’m not Nina. My name’s Levana Morgan,” she corrected. “I used a dead servant girl’s name and claimed to everyone I was her.” She began to walk without telling us where we were heading. Even in th
The Enemy's Kiss Chapter 66 – Help Is On The Way
(Brielle’s POV)“Let’s go,” Levana murmured when she was sure the guards had left. “We can’t use the flashlight. It’s too risky.”“Didn’t you hear what he said? The woman is dying. Kione is…dying,” Gen’s voice trembled. “I won’t let that happen.”“If we’re caught, not only one will die tonight, but seven. So, be patient,” She muttered firmly. “Follow me, and don’t do anything stupid because my power is limited.”We sauntered through the dark hallway until we reached the door. The light coming from the inside told us that the door was slightly ajar. Levana crouched on her knees and pressed her palm on the ground, and then she nodded at us, giving us a cue that it was safe to go inside.I almost ran toward the door, and my eyes searched for one person I wanted to see. There were prison cells inside, and as to how many, I had no idea. I kept on running until we reached three occupied prison cells at the end of the hallway.Levana went to the first cell, murmuring a chant to open the lock
The Enemy's Kiss Chapter 67 – The Turning
(Brielle’s POV)“Just a little sip,” Lucilla said, teasing Bryce on purpose.Bryce released a low growl when she smirked. “One day, I’ll regret not killing you today.”Lucilla smirked, rolling her eyes at him as she reached for the blood bag. Her hands were shaky, and she could hardly lift the bag if it had not been for my grandmother’s help. Grandma had to hold it for her, afraid she might drop it. Amazingly, as soon as it got to her mouth, her fangs descended and began consuming its contents.“I didn’t sign up for this, Gertrude,” Bryce muttered angrily. “You can’t let him bite her.”“Too late, he already did,” Grandma murmured, sighing but smiling pleasantly at Lucilla.“It’s the only way my brother will regain strength faster. Your friend shot him with a silver bullet, you idiot!” she scowled, taking another blood bag. “There’s a power in mate’s blood.”“A what?” Bryce’s eyes widened, horrified at what she said.“This isn’t the best time to explain everything,” Grandma sighed, ir
The Enemy's Kiss Chapter 68 – To Be Hunted
(Brielle’s POV)I had no answer.One thing I knew, we could not go back to the same hallway we had walked into. There was no way to escape. I turned my head toward Levana and swallowed hard, realizing we had no plan.“What now?” Lucilla asked. Her eyes glowered at her brother. “Goodness, Cole. You don’t expect me to fight alone. Just a little blood from Brielle!” She snarled.“She’s right,” Grandma took my arm, pressing my wrist to his cold lips. “You can’t escape this place faster when you’re weak.”“I won’t!” He growled, taking the blood bag Levana left on the ground and tearing it with his teeth.Grandma rolled her eyes, shaking her head as she gave the bag to Bryce. “Carry this. You’ll be needing this in your travel.”“Gertrude, I told you I didn’t sign up for this,” he muttered angrily. “I led you here because you begged me to help you save your granddaughter, and I agreed because I had to drag my crazy sister out of here.”Another loud thud startled us.“Too late for that. You’r
