ICE'S POV:
"This is the plan, we will go in and leave Kiana and Jensen here at home to watch every camera inside those three warehouses. They are going to hack those CCTV cameras and tell us if an enemy is coming or where we can go during the mission." I explained to them while I was sitting on the single couch in front of them.
I crossed my legs and rested my hands above the couch’s arms side by side and looked at them seriously. Jensen and Kiana were sitting on one couch in front of Jaycel and Xercel while I was sitting alone.
Xercel turned to look at me, "Who will be with me to the first warehouse, Empress?" She asked with a serious expression which made me look at her in return.
I sighed, "Only you is enough.” I replied and stood up before stretching my arms above my head and
ICE'S POV:After making sure that everything was according to my plan, I immediately started the car and left that place because I still needed to rest. While I was still on the road, I immediately turned on the device back so that I would know the things that happened to them.I know that I shouldn’t underestimate them since I train them myself but I can’t help it. I may be cold to others but they became my friends for so many years now and I can’t bear to see them in danger."Empress!” I heard Kiana and Jaycel exclaim together when the device was already on.“Are you okay, Empress? What happened to you?" I heard a series of questions from Jensen and Xercel as well."I'm okay," I responded to them calmly. "How was your mission?" I asked back instead."Mission accomplished, Empress." They answered simultaneously and I could even hear the happiness in their voices which made me smirk while feelin
ICE’S POV:"Hon, are you really leaving?" The man asked worriedly to the person he was talking to, who I think is his girlfriend. I can't see the faces of the two of them.The woman turned to him and kissed him on the lips. She put her hands on the man’s neck and hugged the man while smiling happily. The man circled his hands around the woman's waist unconsciously in return.The woman sniffed the man and sighed contentedly, "Hon, don’t be like this. Don't be too overacting there since I'll be right back after this. I just really need to settle this project so I wanted to go out, if this wasn’t important then you know that I'd better be here with you than being with those people." She answered in a gentle voice.The man looked at the woman
ICE’S POV:When they heard my question, they looked at each other for quite a few minutes as if they were talking with their eyes, so I just smiled a little while looking at these little guys with serious expressions on their cute faces.After a while, they both nodded their heads as if they agreed on one another and turned their attention back to me with a smile. At the surface, it looks like a normal smile but their eyes show some emotions that I can’t distinguish but I didn’t mind it anymore since it wasn’t my business.I guess that’s their answer to my question. So I fixed my bag that was still on my back as well as my clothes and stood up before I bent down to kiss their heads.Then, I fish out my wallet from my pocket and take a calling card from it before looking at them gently."Do you two have phones?" I asked them hesitantly since I don’t know if these guys are already allowed to have o
ICE'S POV:The next morning, I still couldn't forget those two children. It's like I just want to always be in that detention room if they're the only ones I can be with. It sounds so absurd but I really want to be with them. I don’t know why since we are complete strangers to each other but it seems that there is an invisible thread that pulls me towards them.I’m also curious about their parents and about their eyes. I don't know why but something really motivates me to see them. I sighed and stood up from my bed. I glanced at the clock in my room and saw that it was already 4 o’clock in the morning.“So, early,” I muttered to myself and opened the door of the bathroom before walking inside it while closing the door behind me.I looked at the big mirror in front of me and gripped the edge of the sink while looking at my eyes. Those eyes, they are like mine when I get angry. But how can it be? I didn't even
ICE’S POV:I sighed, "Anyways, have you found any information about the Bernards?" I asked them with a serious expression but to my disappointment, they just looked at me with an unbelievable expression on their faces.Jaycel twitched his lips, "Empress, you haven't answered my question yet." Jaycel asked boringly.I looked at her boringly as well and rolled my eyes. "Why do you want to know?" I asked while frowning."That’s because this is your first time making such an effort." Kiana laughed instead of Jaycel answering while the others just nodded their heads while smiling at me.I just roll my eyes again at them. "I will give them to the kids I met yesterday. Now, answer my question." I told them and it was obvious that I was already about to lose my patience.Jaycel shook her head, “No, kids? Where did you meet those kids?” She asked and put her fingers under her chin as if she was thinking of som
ICE’S POV: I looked back at the three people and saw that they were already walking in our directions and sat in their own respective seats as Grayson nodded his head towards the guy beside me. I looked away before he could see that I was looking at them and turned my attention to the door again as Jaycel along with Jensen and Kiana entered together. Behind them is Xercel who is still not in the mood because of what happened earlier. They also sat at their seats quietly as the people surrounding us were also quiet but I can still feel all their gazes as if they are observing our direction. What the hell!? Are they this silent every time or this is just this time? I wanted to roll my eyes since the whole room seems solemn because I don’t want to know the reason. When our professor entered the door, he immediately looked around and I could see the confusion on his face just like me but when his eyes landed on the people beside me, he im
ICE'S POV:My eyebrows furrowed, did I hear it right? Wait, who is crying anyway? My eyes slightly widened because of a realization, am I crying? I immediately touched my cheeks and felt the wetness of them. Shit! I rubbed them and thought about why I am affected by those fragments while ignoring Jaycel's question.“Ice, what’s the problem with you?” Xercel asked in a serious tone.I looked at her and noticed that they were all looking at me worriedly except that the other guys were having these confused and serious expressions on their faces. When I say guys, I am referring to Iciest, Grayson, Tray, and Calvin.I don’t know how but these guys were already part of the canteen squad whenever it was already recess, not just that, sometimes even lunch. Their reason? Obviously, it’s because Iciest wants to share a table with me. So, ironic!I shook my head, "Nothing, just don't ask any more about what happ
ICE’S POV: I sighed and stood up which made them look at me questioningly. I grab my bag and put it on my shoulders before I look at them coldly. "Where are you going?" Iciest suddenly asked so I turned my attention to him and saw that his forehead was already furrowed causing me to feel strange inside me. Before I knew it, my fingers were already on his eyebrows trying to fix them. "I will just go somewhere but I'll be back later anyway," I answered him in a calm voice and immediately withdrew my hands. I blinked and was too stunned to react more since I already realized what I did. I bit my lower lips awkwardly and without saying anything more, I immediately walked out leaving them all dumbfounded. Right after I came out what happened earli
