he asked, "I can't seem to find them anywhere." "What the hell Vincent?" James barked, "learn to knock will you. You almost blinded my little sister with your nudity." "You mean this is the famous sister you're always talking about?" he asked. "Alice come on open your eyes. I'm a total catch," he urged. I carefully opened my eyes and looked at his face and not his full body. He had muddy brown hair which was dripping wet with blue-green eyes. "It's Alexis actually," I responded. "Yeah Alice that's what I said."

I asked not even trying to hide my anger "I'm Annabelle" she answered I squinted at my sons "Finding a girl with my name to sleep with" I shrieked "Um, no, this is their niece, Isobellas daughter" Damon told me standing in front of me protecting me from the other witches, or protecting them from me, I didn't know "She lives?" I gasped and whispered, Damon nodded

"She came in here bleeding to death. They were afraid she'd lose the baby, but it seems she'll be okay." "What? Why? What happened?" Anne turns around and we make eye contact. She starts walking toward me slowly, but before she can reach my side, Lizzie's eyes fly open. "Ryder..." she begins weakly. She tries to raise her arm, but fails. "Ryder...I'm sorry. I didn't mean to...I'm sorry. Please, don't hate me. Please...tell Aria..." Her eyes fall closed again, and I look over at Anne, confused as hell. Anne gestures for me to follow her outside, then tells me, "She's out of danger now."

I peel my eyes away from him and only now notice that a small crowd has gathered around the ends of the aisles to look at what they think might be a prodigal gone wrong. “Okay, okay,” I say flustered. “I’ll help you,” I tell him. I watch as relief physically washes over Eric, his shoulders relax and he hangs his head as though exhausted. “Thank you,” he says. “Don’t make me regret it,” I warn him just incase he forgets that he isn’t the only one capable of grand acts, I was the one who helped Annie disappear after all. Later that evening, Renee and I are debating about what Rom Com to watch. I vote fir 27

As Lucian picked the call, what if first noticed was Anne’s sobbing. “Hey babe, what’s the matter? Why are you crying? Are you okay? Are the girls okay?” Lucian asked worriedly. “The girls are fine. The problem is my mum; I found her in her own blood in her bathroom. Lucian, I'm scared. I don't want my mother to die,” Anne said, crying heavily as her mother’s head rested on her lap. “Nothing will happen to your mum. Tell me where are you now,” Lucian asked.

Just a subtle glance down, as if acknowledging my presence was enough. The priest began to speak. I didn’t hear a word. My pulse pounded too loud in my ears, drowning out the ceremony. I kept stealing glances at Jillian, hoping for something—anything—some sign that I wasn’t the only one falling. And then— The church doors slammed open with a bang. A sharp gasp ran through the crowd. Everyone turned to look. And my blood ran cold. Alyssa. She stood there like a vision in crimson, her long red gown clinging to every curve. Her hair was perfectly styled, lips painted blood red, and those brown eyes sparkled with wicked satisfaction. I didn’t need to guess why she was here.

Her eyes glistened with fear. “If something happens to you…” “It won’t,” he whispered back. “I’m not leaving you again.” Marek suddenly froze mid-step. “Wait.” “What?” Lucian asked. Marek pointed at the security camera feed. “Someone else is outside the penthouse door.” Elara’s breath hitched. “Adrian?” Marek squinted. “No… it’s a woman.” Selene narrowed her eyes. “A woman? The Hales don’t use women in extraction teams.”

What has happened in the minutes that she'd fallen asleep in the office. Cerise hears footsteps resonating from the stairwell and a horde of aurums launch at her. In an instant, she makes a run for it but fails to do so as she's grabbed by the foot and thrown in the air. She raises her hand and drains all the oxygen in the room as quick as she could, but doing so drains her energy too. She sees all the aurums falling to their knees, coughing, strangling their necks in an attempt to grasp any sort of air. The last thing Cerise sees before passing out is Nicholas.
