Chapter 27: The Threat

Zion.

My phone rang for like a hundred times already and it was all from Ivy. She must have been thinking that I'm in no mood to see her. If only she knew how much I wanted to be with and how much I want us to be together.

But I can't. With me around her won't guarantee her safety. She was just a normal girl who came in town to start a fresh life in college and here I am, being like a barrier to her path. I want what's best for her and if that's being away, so be it.

I was in my room, sitting on my old-fashioned couch with my feet on the coffee table while reading a novel on my hand when Jace came in. He didn't even bother to knock.

"Hey, uncle. Aren't you going to answer that?" He asked, pertaining to Ivy's phone call while walking towards my shelf which made me a bit confused. Jace doesn't read books.

"It's none of your business," I sarcastically said while my eyes were still on the book.

"Woah, rude." He laughed. "Can I borrow this?" He was holding a book tha

I had never witnessed Zion in such a state, and I wished I never had to. What could an ordinary girl like me possibly do to for him in this situation? Nothing. Absolutely nothing.Just as I contemplated taking a step back, a chain on his foot unexpectedly came loose as a result of his aggressive movements.But before he could reach into me, the door opened from my back. Jace hardly pulled me before shutting the door, causing Zion to hit it from the inside.I was catching my breath, also letting a tear fall from my eye. "He's in pain, Jace.

I agreed to that arrangement in order to save him from death and my parents knew neither one of those things that have been happening. I'm not ready to tell them yet. It'll just make them worry again and they'll probably make me go home but leaving Zion wasn't in my plan."This is a lifetime decision, Ivy. You still have days to think about it. Once you marry him, there's no turning back. You will forever be tied to Zion," Aunt Rosie reminded me.She was helping me pack my things in my room since I will be moving to the Kyran Mansion for a while."I know what I signed up for, Auntie. I won't hesitate on this one," I answered her."Okay then. I know you're old enough to make decisions for yourself but always remember that I'm here for you, no matter what," she assured me.I gave her a soft smile before pulling her into a hug.

I was worried of what she might think of me after knowing everything that I've been keeping from her and Dad."Rosie told me," she answered. "It's okay, Ivy. She told me everything and I understand. I wouldn't wanna miss your wedding tomorrow."Confusion filled my head, so she was aware of what was happening in Mirfield all along."Y-You know everything?" I asked for assurance and she didn't seem to be mad at me. "W-What about Dad?""Oh, he's coming tomorrow before the ceremony. His boss is, you know, kind of strict," she explained."I'll leave you two for now," Leona said with a smile before walking but I stopped her."Wait, Leona." She turned to us. "You two know each other?""Your mother was a good friend of mine. That's why it's not just you who reunited with her," she told me before leaving.___To have a private talk with my mom, I asked her to come to my

    Chapter 1: Moving to MirfieldIvy.The cold breeze blew on my face as I walked towards the front door of my aunt's well-built house. Rumors about this town being cursed kept crossing my mind. Back home, mom and dad used to tell me that they once lived here. They couldn't get over how spine-chilling it was for them to live in such a creepy town."Let me help you with your things," aunt Rosie said as she offered me a hand for my luggage. After her, I walked and observed inside the house. The aquarium with a dead fish caught my eye and if it wasn't for my curiosity, I wouldn't have gone to it."Is that fish dead, auntie?" I softly asked while looking at the greenish aquarium in front of me."It's just a toy, Ivy," she told me as she walked upstairs with my bag in her hands.I followed her and as I took the stairs, my hand was sliding through the wood railing of it. The door on the terrace was open, causing the cold air to enter which made me cross my arms to prevent shivering. The quietn

I was still in this other man's hands, making sure that I won't make a foolish move. I could feel him breathing from my back. When we heard the fading footsteps of the couple, he then let go of me.Oh, it's Zion. The man who helped me earlier."Why did you stop me?" I immediately asked him, maintaining a low voice. I already had enough attention on this day."From what? From crashing a romantic moment? Or from helping a girl who doesn't need help?" Zion sarcastically asked, fixing his shirt leather jacket.I scoffed before leaving him. I visited the library before I went home. Before I could enter my room, I heard a scratching sound in the other room. I dropped my bag on the floor before walking toward it. I thought it was locked but it wasn't so I entered and I coughed right away when tons of dirt welcomed me.Oh, this is Abbie's room.

When I sat down, I accidentally spilled my drink on the table so she asked for some table napkins.“Nothing,” I shortly answered. I calmed myself by taking a deep breath.“Thank you, Jace,” Lizzy said when he handed her the napkins she asked for. “Oh, and by the way, this is my friend. She just moved to Mirfield a few weeks ago.”“Hi.” He flashed a genuine smile. “Ivana, right?” he asked, offering a hand to me.“Y-yeah,” I agreed, not asking why he knows my name. It’s not like not everyone talks about me the time I stepped on Mirfield College. “Just Ivy,” I said as I shook his hand."Well, it’s very nice to meet you. Jace, Jace Remington," he politely introduced himself. "Uhm, do you guys wanna go to a party?""Yes, of course!" Lizzy exclaimed as if she was already invited by him."Great.

    Chapter 4: The Dream“You saw me in your dream?”Zion didn’t say a thing when I asked. He kept silent and didn’t even bother to look at me. If he saw me in my dream, is that a reason for him to follow me? Or to avoid me?“There you are. I’ve been looking everywhere for you—Oh, you’re with someone. Hi,” Lizzy greeted Zion who was still quiet.“Hey,” he greeted her too with a serious face. “Excuse me,” he said before walking away. We watched him as he walked and I saw the smirk on Lizzy’s face.“I didn’t know you know the word ‘flirting’,” she said to me.“I don’t. I was asking him something and he just ignored me.” I sighed heavily and crossed my arms on my chest.“He’s hot, though,” she said, teasing me. I just rolled my eyes when she said that. “Who is he, anyway?” Lizzy asked me.“His name is Zion. He’s Jace’s uncle,” I answered.“Oh. It’s not surprising. They have good genes.” Lizzy chuckled.___I was still at school, walking downstairs when I saw someone on the balcony. I know it

It was a good thing that mom called me, a way to get off the tension I was feeling."I'm doing great, mom. Mirfield College is a really good school, I can tell. How are you and dad?" I asked, changing the topic to avoid a conversation about how I am in 'Mirfield' itself."Well, we're still having trouble finding a stable job. But don't worry, once we save up, you can come back home and we'll be the ones to handle all your school fees," she told me, loving the idea of me going back to our home."Mom," I sighed. "We've talked about this, right? Aunt Rosie has already given me the opportunity plus, I promised her that I would be staying with her until I graduate college. And also, I wanted to watch over her, now that Abbie is gone. She needs someone right now," I explained to mom."I know. But your dad and

    Chapter 26: "Who's dead?" Ivy. I ran home and lock the door, leaning on it, I was catching my breath, still processing what I've seen. Was it me? Did I do that to him? I went upstairs and did what Zion told me. I always get nervous with these kinds of situations but I trust Zion. I know that everything he says will always be for the both of us but I can't keep myself from worrying. He didn't look so good earlier. I got my phone and dialed Lizzy. "Hello? Lizzy, thank god you picked up. Can you come over?" I asked her. "What? Why? Are you going to complain again about Zion ghosting you?" "It's much more serious than that," I said. "Okay, chill. You sound different, is everything okay?" She worriedly asked. "I'll explain everything later," I told her. "Okay. Give me five minutes," she said before ending the call. I stood up and checked the windows if someone was there. I assumed Zion told me to lock everything because someone might come after me again, probably James whom I'v

I wouldn't want to destroy their precious moment together so I went back to Charlotte's room.I saw a pile of magazines on the coffee table and I decided to read one. By the design of her room, I know she's a fashionista. I also noticed it whenever I see her. She's always wearing designer clothes like how elite people do.I was halfway through reading the entire magazine when I heard her voice. I immediately looked at her and I saw her eyes slowly opening. My face lit up as I stood up and went to her. I made sure I wasn't touching any part of her body that might hurt her more."You're awake," I said, smiling.___Aunt Rosie was watching TV with a bowl of chips on her lap when I got home.

    Chapter 24: Coffee ShopLizzy.I was washing my hands in the sink when I suddenly saw a big spider in the mirror that caused me to scream so loud. I was panting while wiping my hands and rushing my way to the door. I am arachnophobic and that's why I couldn't breathe whenever I see a spider, big or small.I was crying when I opened the door, I almost fainted when I found myself inside Jace's arms. I was trembling in fear as I hold him so I wouldn't fall."Hey, it's okay," he said softly. I braced myself when he went inside to kill the spider, I guess. Then, he went back to me."Is it gone?" My hands were still shaking."Yes, it's gone. Let's go," he said.Jace led me to the rooftop to get some air. He also brought me a cup of tea to make me calmer. He sat in front of me and observed if I was still panting but I wasn't anymore. Thanks to the tea he made for me."How did you know?" I asked, still holding the cup in my hand."About what?" he asked."How did you know it was the spider whi

    Chapter 23: Bedridden Ivy.I woke up while Zion was still sleeping peacefully next to me. I leaned to have a closer look at him. I just realized that his features are so perfect. It was my first time to see his face this close. No wonder why a lot of people are obsessed with him.I carefully got out of bed, making sure not to wake him up. I went downstairs to cook my breakfast when I saw two of their helpers."Good morning, Ma'am," one of them greeted me."Good morning. I'd prefer to be called Ivy," I replied. It makes me uncomfortable whenever they call me that because I'm not someone who was raised with a silver spoon."Apologies if we still haven't cooked. We don't normally cook for the Kyrans because they don't—Oh my, God. Do you know that they're—""Yes. Yes, I know." I chuckled. They didn't want to scare me about Zion's family being vampires.

I didn't answer it until I finished the buttons."Hello? Who's this?" I asked because it was just a number. I comb my hair and looked at myself in the mirror."Hello, Kyran Junior," he greeted. His voice sounded familiar but I couldn't guess who he is. "I think we need to talk since I have one of your sisters."My eyes widened. I used my speed to go to Charlotte's room but she wasn't there. Where the hell did he take her?"What did you do to my sister?" I asked him calmly but with a low voice."Easy," he chuckled. "It's not like your sister will die. You must have forgotten that she's a vampire.""Who are you?" I asked for the second time."Bring James to me at exactly 8:00. If not, she dies," he simply said.Marcus."Are you informed of how your son broke the rules of this town?" I was trying not to sound
