The next day

Lucas in his fitted armored suit, walked down the hall inspecting every nook and cranny of the mansion as his job as the head of guards required. It was a rather boring but necessary task, so there was no other choice than to perform it. After he had finished with his inspection he walked over to one of the large windows and looked outside towards the backyard. He could see a group of guards standing there talking in low voices.

His duty as an armed guard demanded that he stay alert for any suspicious activity, especially after all the threats and disappearances the house was experiencing lately. Now that Aurora is in the house, he has to protect her from any potential kidnappers. It’s quite an honor to be able to guard her against anything or anyone who might hurt her, Ryan has a lot of enemies and they would use Aurora as an advantage. Of course, Lucas would never allow anything to happen to Aurora or anyone else close to him.

Ryan wasn't in the room and she just assumed that he had left earlier."That's good, Ryan is gone"She thought, sighing in reliefShe walked slowly towards her bed but then she heard steps outside of her room and someone calling her name, she frowned and ran to the door, she pushed it open and there were five maids standing in front of her"How many maids are in this house"She thought staring at the ladies in front of her, they were actually beautiful, every single one of them, they were dressed in fancy gown and they seemed nervous, they were avoiding eye contact with Aurora at all costs. They looked guilty but why?"Do you all need something?"She asked "Well my Lady, it's time to go, the wedding is about to start"One of them said with a smile"Yes my lady, Lord Ryan specifically asked us to accompany

    The man moved closer to her, grabbed her by the wrist, and made a clean cut on her palm , she cried out in pain as the knife touched her skin. She dropped to her knees holding her wounded arm, blood dripping onto the white rug below her. She felt lightheaded, her legs began shaking uncontrollably. Ryan just stared as she cries uncontrollable, a part of him doesn't care at all but he also imagine how painful that will be, she obviously felt pain, she isn't as immortal like him. She screamed and clutched her bleeding palm tightly, the man continued until her hands were covered in blood Ryan was standing in the same spot, watching every detail of it without blinking, he wasn't even feeling anything or even showing any sign of being affected When the man stopped cutting her open, she dropped to the ground with a loud thud while her face started turning paler by the second.

    Ryan gently opened his eyes, everything seemed blur at first it took him a few seconds to adjust himself but when he was more fully awake he noticed the white walls surrounding him, they looked very clean, well maintainedThen he realized that he is in room, or at least he thinks he is in room, it is hard to tell because there isn't anything there other than him and the bed, the window and the door, both of which is open"Oh....fuck"He groaned in pain, his head was banging loudly as if there was someone hitting it with a hammer. Ryan placed his hands on his head hoping to ease the headache but nothing worked"Useless..."The pain subsided but Ryan was too weak to stand up even without his hands on his head, so he stayed where he wasIt took him awhile to remember about the arrow, and then about keith, and suddenly he remembered, he remembered the man, the same man who stabbed him, he remembered him standing there with his bow aiming at Ryan then suddenly Ryan remembered something el

He could feel all his energy slowly leaving him, even though the on his shoulder still throbbed painfully, he was tired. The adrenaline rush from earlier had worn off, so now his whole body ached and burnedBut he had been shot before, this wasn't any differentHe sighed deeply, putting the half smoked cigarette between his fingers and dropping it into his shirt pocket. Ryan stared at it for some time until another figure appeared through the doorway "Ryan, are you okay"Lucas ran closer to him with a worried look"Yeah, I'm okay"He answered with a smile"Really? then why did you send one of your guard to me? you said it was an emergency"Lucas arched his eyebrows"Well," Ryan began carefully trying to think of a good explanation "I wanted to talk to you alone"Lucas cocked his head confusedRyan sighed"What is it?

    The next day.......The past two days with Aurora and Keith has been filled with love and romance, at least that's what Aurora thinks, Keith told her things that she never believed in, such as the existence of ghosts, angels, mermaids and even demons, although those seemed quite farfetched at first she had started to believe in them, she even talked about them more than usual, they would always stay for the night before leaving. Keith really took care of Aurora pretty well, he would buy her fancy clothes, give her good foods and sometimes takes her out but only for a short while , and he would always ask if she is comfortable or wants to come with him, which she gladly accepted, she wanted to experience new places and experiences but most importantly; she wanted him to be happy so she was determined to spend time with him. She was starting to have feeling for him but she knew he deserved someone better, she knows she wasn' s his forever girl....In addition to that he would always sh

    Few minutes later...Ryan was already exhausted, bodies filled the room everywhere, blood and guts scattered around the place making it resemble a slaughterhouse.Ryan stood still panting heavily, covered with a thick layer of grime and sweat, and blood covering his body. He wiped it off his face and turned to face a Gabriel who was approaching him and smirked evilly at him."Wow, you actually killed them all? wow!!"He muttered moving closer to Ryan, kicking the dead bodies as he is doing so.Ryan glared at him gripping his sword, his expression showing no emotion, but inside he was boiling with anger and annoyance."Just get Keith, I... don't want to..."What?"Gabriel interrupted "You don't want to what?!! hurt me?"He added with a laugh"That's what you said years ago""Gabriel!! for the last time! release Keith...he has nothing to do with it...release him...or else I won't spare you this time Gabriel"Ryan warned"Oh come on now Ryan!!!

I guess so.."He said hesitantly"Me too..""You too?"Keith asked"Yeah, I think it's strange that we managed to meet up in these conditions.""Yeah...."Keith saidThe two fell silent. "Are you gonna find a way for us to get out of here"She asked Keith nodded slowly, still not convinced, even though he tried really hard not to think about what happened earlier."I'll try...."They were both silent for a while, staring at the floor, until finally Keith asked"Hey......."Hmm?"She hummed in acknowledgement"How are you holding up?""Better...."Ava replied, looking back at him"Can I ask you a question?""Sure!!""What about your family members, don't they know you are away or something?"Keith asked and heard

Aurora hummed and leaned her head back into his shoulder before closing her eyes.She could feel his lips moving across her neck before a small peck made its way onto her bare skin.She giggled when she felt that familiar sensation on her skin"Morning"She responded softly, rubbing her hand against his arm. Ryan sighed and tightened his grip on Aurora for a moment before gently letting her go. He sat upright and looked down at her with a bright smile.He reached out his hands and helped Aurora sit up, then cupped her face and brought her into a warm kiss."How is my baby?"He asked patting her flat tummy gently, Aurora giggled and blushed slightly.
