Breaking Cairos Veylan のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 11 - チャプター 20

ISOLDE POV His words caught me off guard. I nearly choked on the food I was eating.“Drink water… I don’t want you dying on your second night here,” he said, crossing his legs, his eyes fixed on me.I slowly reached for the glass of water on the table and took a long gulp, my eyes still locked on his.That statement… it startled me.Was he still suspicious of me? I wondered, still drinking, trying to calm my racing heart.“Better?” he asked.“Yeah… thank you,” I whispered.His gaze didn’t leave me. It burned, intense, searching….like he was trying to see through me, into me.My face flushed under the weight of it. My breath caught.And before I could even say jack robinson—His lips were on mine.Hot. Sudden. Intoxicating.My body froze, my mind going completely blank as the world around me disappeared in that single moment.Here I was… kissing him.My mind went blank.Damn… he’s such a good kisser.His lips moved against mine with a slow confidence, like he already knew exactly what

ISOLDE POVI clenched my fists at my sides, trying to calm my racing thoughts. My mind was spinning with questions, but one thing hit me harder than anything else: this… this animal, this murderer.. was the reason I was here. And it seemed like he was testing me. And I wasn’t going to stand here and take his crap.I stared at him, my voice steady but firm. “I’ve had enough. I’d appreciate it if you leave, Veylan.”He didn’t move. He just stood there, his eyes boring into mine. “I never told you my surname… so how did you know?”I cursed under my breath. Why do I keep getting to crazy mess with this man.. how do I get myself out of this “I thought you did… or wasn’t that the barista?” I shivered under his gaze. “Whatever that’s not the point . I want you out of my house. It’s late.”Instead of moving, he casually sat back, crossing his legs like he owned the place.“Well,” he said slowly, a small smirk tugging at his lips, “I’m afraid I’ll have to disappoint you, Sol… I’m not leavi

ISOLDE POVI didn’t even remember falling asleep.One second I was staring at the ceiling, wrapped in that dusty blanket, and the next…Darkness.Then suddenly.. I blinked awake slowly.And nearly biting my tongue.A face was right in front of me. Way too close.His face.Cairos.His eyes were glowing red. Bright. Unnatural.“Good morning,” he said softly.I screamed.“AHHHHHH—!”Before I could even think, I shoved him with both hands.He flew backward off hitting his head on the ground with a loud THUD!There was a pause.Then his voice came from the floor.Calm. Annoyed.“You definitely are trying to kill me.”He sat up, rubbing the back of his head as if nothing had happened.I was breathing so fast I thought I might pass out.“What the hell was that?!” I yelled, pointing at him. “Your eyes! They were RED!”He blinked at me. Slowly.“…My eyes are hazel brown Sol,” he said.I froze.I squinted at him.His eyes were Normal now. Calm. Annoyed.Very much not glowing.Silence.“…what th

ISOLDE POVDEAD!I pushed my chair back so fast it almost fell. My eyes locked on him, wide in shock.He had to be messing with me.Dead? Dead?Alara is in a hospital bed right now, fighting for her life… and he’s telling me she’s dead?“I don’t believe you…” I said, rubbing my hands over my face. My voice shook. “If you’re trying to mess with me, Veylan, it’s not funny.”“I don’t lie, Isolde,” he said calmly. “So you have a lot of explaining to do.”My chest tightened.“When did she die?” I asked, my voice barely steady.“Two years ago.”I stood up immediately, pacing. My mind couldn’t accept it. This didn’t make sense. It couldn’t be real.“That’s not true,” I whispered. “That’s not possible.”He watched me closely. “Tell me, Sol… what did she say when you met this Alara?”“Nothing,” I said quickly. Too quickly.It was a lie.But I couldn’t tell him everything. I still didn’t trust him.“Isolde,” he said again, his voice sharper now. “What did she say?”“Nothing!” I repeated.His ja

ISOLDE POVMy throat went dry.I took a slow step backward without thinking, eyes fixed on the ceiling like it might crack open at any second.“…Hello?” I called out, my voice sounding too small in the big house.Silence answered me.Then…knock.Right above me again. Harder this time.I flinched so badly I almost tripped over my own feet.“Nope,” I whispered immediately. “Nope, nope, nope. This is funny anymore Veylan ”I turned fast and walked straight toward the hallway. My plan was simple… find Cairos, drag him back here, give a earful….”But halfway there, I stopped.Because something felt wrong.The hallway… was darker than before.Like the light had dimmed without anyone touching it.I hesitated.“Cairos?” I called again, louder this time.Still nothing.Of course.I swallowed hard and kept walking, forcing my legs to move even when every instinct screamed at me to run.Then I heard it.A soft sound behind me.Not a knock this time.Footsteps.Slow. Calm.Inside the house.My h
