Chapter 11: Delicious Bunny"Ivy."I turned around and saw Zion walking to us. His presence saved me from Jace's complicated question. Of course, Zion and I don't have the thing that Jace was thinking about. Neither do I know if Zion treats me as his friend, I shouldn't assume anything unless it came from him."I have good news and bad news," Zion started."Bad news first," I told him."We still can't find James," he answered."And the good one?" Jace asked him."We know where he's hiding but we're unprepared. James's group is armed with deadly weapons. Tomorrow at noon, we'll be continuing the search but as they are, we will be prepared," Zion explained to us.___"Thank you," I thanked the helper who put some water on my glass.I was having dinner with Zion's family. Everyone was nice but I don't think that Charlotte likes me. Like earlier, she was giving me a death stare and I didn't know why. I was intimidated but instead of giving her eye contact, I just focused on eating."I hea

Chapter 12: Exposed"Talk to me, Ivy."As Zion was driving, I was staring at the passenger window. He was consistently talking and asking me but I couldn't respond after what happened earlier. I took a deep breath because I already feel bad about ignoring him for the past ten minutes."What should we talk about?"He glanced at me. "I'm sorry about earlier—""You're sorry that you kissed me?" I put my gaze on him and he look like a terrified little boy who was peeking if I'm angry."Y-Yes. Shouldn't I be?" he asked, politely.I sighed deeply and rolled my eyes. My arms were crossed on my chest until we got into aunt Rosie's house. I got my bag and opened the door."Thanks for the ride, and for letting me stay in your house," I told him with a straight face and he just nodded, not looking at me.I didn't waste my time waiting for his answer or just hearing his voice. Hah! Why would I want to hear his voice in the first place? I sighed again. As I was walking, I heard his car leave but I

Chapter 13: Flowers For WhoZion."Ivy, what are you talking—""You don't need to deny either of them," she said, cutting me off.I couldn't answer. How did she know about me? Did one of my sisters tell her? Or did I give her the clues?"Ivy?"We were startled when Rosie came out of the house. She looks like she just got up from her sleep. Abbie used to tell me that Rosie's sleep is not so deep. She wakes up every time she hears a noise."Auntie," she said."What are you doing outside? It's freezing. And why are you here, Zion?" Rosie asked us."I just wanted to talk to Ivy, Rosie. We're done now. You both can go inside," I politely answered.___"Why are you so surprised that Ivy knew about us? Are you scared that she wouldn't accept you?" Charlotte arched her brow at me. I knew that she hated Ivy because of James and it was a reason for her to scare Ivy."Don't change the topic, Charlotte," I told her."I'm not changing the topic at all, little brother. Do you think I don't notice?

Chapter 14: Overheard ConversationIvy.Why would he choose me to be the first one to come here?No joke, this place looks enchanted. I'm guessing he made this his comfort place. It looked so peaceful and quiet. I got a book from the bookshelf and sat on the couch. I didn't know that Zion also loves books as I do. To be honest, I think that he already read hundreds of books. I was about to read a when I remembered that he has something to tell me, that's why we're here."What was it that you wanna talk about," I asked, closing the book that I was holding.He got a chair and sat in front of me. "I wanted to say sorry." Here we go again. He just makes me look so desperate and pitiful. I looked away, trying to make him see that I didn't want to talk about it. "I'm sorry because I said sorry about kissing you."From that moment, my eyes went back to him. What did he just say?"What do you mean?" I asked."If I'm being real, I didn't want to say sorry about it because I'm not," he said."T

Chapter 15: Lowland LaneZion."I'll be back," I told her.I stood up and got my car. What the hell is Charlotte doing in the dungeon? Is he still crazy about James who turned her down a couple of times?When I got there, I saw the guards were being pushed by someone. I expected it already that it was Charlotte who was throwing them everywhere."Cut it out," I calmly said, making her turn around. Her hands are full of blood but I'm pretty sure it was hers. Even though Charlotte always acts childish all the time, she wouldn't try to hurt or make a human being bleed."What are you doing here?" she irritatedly asked and her eyes went back to being dark brown."Well, I just received a call from someone who said you were causing a lot of mess here. I don't consider it as a false alarm from what I see," I politely told her. Being angry in a situation like this isn't my thing. I helped the guard in front of me to stand up. Thankfully, he wasn't injured."What are you going to do about it? Ki

Chapter 16: Lowland Lane IIIvy."Ivy? What were you doing in front of the door?"I tried not to look suspicious about what she said on the call. I took a deep breath and swallowed."Uhm, sorry. I just uhm... wanted to ask you how your day went. It just looks like you've been busy this whole week," I said.Nailed it.Relief was all over her face, she was thankful that I asked her if she was doing well. I feel bad a bit because it was just an act. "I'm fine, Ivy. Now, go back to your room. You might need some rest too."___"Ivy, hello?" Lizzy was waving her hand in front of my eyes.I realized that I spilled the sauce of the pasta while mixing it for a while already. I was just too distracted and confused about last night. I couldn't help but think about who was aunt Rosie talking to."Oh, uhm." I tried to come back to my senses as I wipe the spilled sauce on the table. We were in the cafeteria, talking about the upcoming event that will be held on the campus next week. Lizzy and I vo

Chapter 17: Twins Sabrina. "Welcome back, Sabrina." I was breathing the cold air before getting up in my coffin. I smiled at my friend who got me out of this shitty thing. Loyal people like him are made for a powerful vampire like me. "Well done, Alister." I reached the ground with my feet and tried to balance. "How long has it been." "6 years, milady," he answered before giving me some new clothes to wear. What a beautiful day it is. ___ "When will he talk to me?" I asked Alister as we were walking in the woods. "In a few minutes. The sun needs to set first," he told me. After a few minutes, the sun went down. Alister and I didn't bother to bring a flashlight since we are vampires who have strong senses, including the sense of sight. "A pleasure to be back, my Lord," I greeted him in front of the glowing tree which we believe is his home for centuries. "Remember what we agreed on. No one can prolong your life, except for me," he said with his voice echoing around. "I know

Chapter 18: Uncomfortable Living Ivy. "Aunt Rosie, I'm confused." I blinked twice. "How can you be here?" This is impossible. I may have not entered aunt Rosie's room when I got home but I'm pretty sure she was there when I left. How can she be standing in front of me right now? "I know you're confused but let me explain everything," she told me. She sat and took a deep breath. "Ivy, I want you to bear with me. I want you to understand every word that I'm about to say." "Is everything okay, auntie?" I worriedly asked her. "No. Everything is not okay, my niece," she answered. I'll start by asking you if you remember my sister, your another aunt." "Yes. Sabrina, aunt Sabrina. What about her?" "It's very hard to tell but the truth is she's the one living my life, Ivy. She's the one you're seeing inside the house that I own," she told me and I was so puzzled. "Auntie, I don't get it. She died 7 years ago. How could she be—You're pranking me, right?" I had the urge to ask since wha

Chapter 19: Keep You Safe"Does she know about you and Zion?"I was breathing so fast and I could barely hear Lizzy. Am I gonna be sacrificed today? Tomorrow? This week? Scary things about death keep crossing my mind as my body continuously heated me."Ivy, your hands are trembling," she added. I didn't realize that my hands were shaking as I was scrolling down on Lizzy's laptop, studying the plans for the event."Sorry," I said. "Where were we?"She took a deep breath before folding the laptop. "I know something is wrong, Ivy. You can tell me. We can talk about this event later."___Lizzy and I went to the cemetery. I wasn't able to hold back a tear when she was crying in front of Abbie's gravestone. Abbie was her best friend and I couldn't imagine how Lizzy was feeling right now that she already how her friend died."I'm sorry that I didn't do anything to help you. I was so ignorant." She continued crying so I held her shoulder, trying to comfort her the best way I can.___I made

Chapter 20: ClashZion.She threw a pillow at me but before it could hit me, I shut the door and went downstairs.___"How could you just tell me this?" I could feel that Leona is angry at me just by looking at her eyes.I went to her room as soon as I heard her car arrive. She has been sleeping office these past few days because of her busy schedule as a mayor."You were busy," I told her in my lowest voice."Even so." She looked so frustrated. "How is Rosie? How did she get out of the tomb?""An old lady who was traveling across towns by just walking heard her from afar. She's now staying with her in a safe place in Lowland Lane," I explained to her before sitting on the couch in front of her desk."Lowland Lane? There's no house in there. Are you sure—""The old lady was strong enough to build one," I said, cutting her off."So, how is she?" she asked again."She's fine. I didn't see any injury on her body. But she needs to have a safer place," I informed Leona."Call George to pic
