31: Darkness x Light
It felt like deja vu, the first time she got caught, or taken by mistake. A pair of hands that wear gloves so that she can’t feel their body temperature and a full black cloth that covers their body, it is exactly the same as when she got taken and put into Dustine’s dungeon. Dawn didn’t do anything to get out of the two of them because she concludes that they are Dustine’s pack members or security.
Dawn felt that their speeds increased. After seconds she felt the familiar grass of Dustine’s territory. Even though they are already inside the two men never lose their grip on Dawn and don't take off her blindfold. Not until they are in Magus' office room.
Magus inwardly smirked upon seeing Dawn. He walked in front
32: He KnewAn alarming sound woke up Dustine from deep sleep. He’s not really a heavy sleeper but happenings made him too tired. He got up from the bed and searched for that sound and he saw an alarm clock on the side table. With sleepy eyes he searched for any button to stop it from ringing but he couldn't so he threw it away and Jasper, on the other bed, woke up because of Dustine’s noise.Yesterday, after Dawn arrived and faced Magus, Dustine already left with Jasper and welcomed him at his home. So, basically, he and Jasper are on the same roof at the moment, and they shared a room together but not a bed.“What the hell are you doing? You threw my alarm clock!” Jasper spat and picked up the alarm on the floor.
33: Missing but NotA loud sound of something being smashed can be heard in the four corners of the house because of Dustine.“WHY?!!” he asked with angst then looked at Jasper with bloodshot eyes. “Did you know about this all along?” Jasper was taken aback and chuckled a bit. If earlier he wasn’t in the mood then now, he is trying not to join Dustine with his range of emotions.“Relax, Dustine. Calm down. You’re scaring the kids.” He didn’t answer his question. Instead he said that for he notices that Aurora isJasper tried to get near him but he pushed him away and grabbed his collar. He’s face paled, he admits that Dustine is his best f
34: It’s JamesJasper just left the place when he didn’t see any of them unknowingly Dustine was about to leave the place too, in bat form, just like him. They didn't see each other, Jasper flew to his home, while Dustine I was still thinking of where he could find Dawn. Funny how they don’t even think that Magus locked up Dawn.Well, Dawn is sleeping on the stainless cold floor while holding her in a pained stomach because of her cut. From the session Olivia removed her baby. She got lucky that Magus didn’t know that she had been pregnant because if that’s the case, she knew that her baby would just be killed brutally. That’s why she is thankful that the baby is gone. Looking at her own situation, she wished that Dustine was there to save her.
35: It’s a NoBlaez immediately released her from the chain that attached to her body and scooped her as soon as possible. He passed James but he made sure that he bumped his shoulder. In his frustration, James tripped him but Dawn is in his arms so he can’t risk it. He just followed him as he made way to the infirmary.Maybe Dawn had really bad luck once she stepped on this place. The first time she’s in the dungeon and faint, so Dustine brought her to the infirmary and now she’s at the infirmary again.A nurse, the same nurse who assisted her the first time, came in and checked her vitals.“She looks familiar. I think I saw her,” she whispered as she stared at
36: Twilight and DawnAdjusting her eye from the light that comes from the chandelier hanging on the ceiling, Dawn is finally awake.“I’m thankful that you’re awake,” Elene spoke on the side. When Dawn sees her white clothes, she immediately thinks that she’s Olivia's assistant. “What did you do to yourself? You always lose your consciousness because of fatigue.”“W-What?” she asked, not really getting her point and then she realized something. “Did you cut my stomach again?” She then hugged her belly. It’s like she gets paranoid every time she thinks of what happened to her.Elene processed her question for a moment before get
37: RoyalsDawn is rolling on the bed, it’s now morning but she can’t even sleep. She can’t polish a plan B, if her plan A didn’t go through. A loud knock from the door after a few minutes, she groaned and whined while walking towards the door to open it.“What took you so long?” Kritisha hissed. Dawn was surprised a little when she burst through her door.“What do you want?” she asked in a bored tone. “If you want to talk to me about Dustine then sorry I don’t want to hear all of your rants. You can leave now.” she spat. She thinks that she’ll never come near her if it wasn’t about Dustine.Kritisha raised her brow
38: Meet the MotherAfter trying so many times, Dawn finally gets to walk with those books in her head and she can now get out of her room. Even though she didn’t like it, she did really obey Kritisha. After fixing herself she got out, walking down the grand staircase of the house. It’s late in the afternoon and she hasn't eaten anything yet, so she made her way to the kitchen and luckily she didn't get lost.“Do you need something, Luna?”she cringed as one of the maids called her that. “Don't call me ‘Luna’ , that isn’t my name. Call me Dawn, that's my name.”“But—“Anyways, I want to e
39: Cage Again “Get off me! Why can’t I enter my own house?!” Dustine’s shouts echoed outside of the place. As soon as he found out that Dawn was in their house, he came back but the problem was, the guard wouldn’t allow him to enter. “We are just obeying Magus' command, Alpha.” the guard repeated his reasoning at him. He's been there for hours and they just tired themselves by repeating their questions and answers. “Bullsh*t!” he cursed and kicked the stone in front of him. Just like Dawn, he wanted to talk to him. It happened that their mind link isn’t broken, so he can hear Dawn’s thoughts but as much as he wanted to talk to her in there he can’t take a risk. He didn’t know what Ma
56: EndSound of the rustles because of the dried leaves in the forest can be heard as Blaez and Dustine pass through, a minute past they've reached their destination where he found her mother crying inside his Grandfather's room. There's still the gun that Magus used."Mother…"He slowly walked to reach her place and caressed her back."Y-Your grand...father." she sobs and hugged his arms to cry even more.No matter how many times Magus has been manipulated and ruthless they can't forget the fact that he's they're family, the ruler of their clan and he has a good side that only few knows about.
55: Hold On"What?!" All of them asked even though they heard it right."Magus is dead." He repeated.Dustine rushed to be in front of him and asked: "Where is he?""H-He's gone."Vampire's turns into ashes after they are killed so there's no chance for them to even get to see him."We found him in his room lifeless and he turned into ashes in no time. We found a gun with silver bullets in it, the gun that Xio used. We come to conclude that he got it after you all had a fight with that villain girl and just planned to kill himself using that… I'm sorry we failed as a security and I, as
54: Magus DeathA loud noise can be heard and it gets louder as the footsteps are nearing."Dustine! Dude!" Jasper shouted as soon as he got a glimpse of Dustine making food in the kitchen."What the hell! Don't shout! Dawn is sleeping!" He scolded.Jasper lowly chuckled and acted to zip his mouth. He place the plastic bag in the countertop and said:"I brought Dawn's favorite apples." He smiled showing his complete set of teeth together with his fangs.Dustine, being serious and rude, ignored his cuteness and continued cutting the meat for Dawn's dinner. It's night time and
53: Pups are Coming"You know. I can't really believe that you're my brother." Then she laughed.They are talking in the front porch area, watching the dark skies full of stars that shine in their eyes together with the crescent moon above."I longed that you were my sister. Remember, when you first saw me in the forest asking for help? And I said I needed to just go to the public library?""I remembered." She answered with a chuckle. Those days were hella a rollercoaster ride, but one of the memorable because all along she thought that he is one of Dustine's guards but not and they helped each other."I purposely wanted to see you until I
52: Welcomed"A-Ahh. Come in." He shyly welcomed them and opened the door widely.Both of them blinked their eyes but ended up releasing a heavy sigh."Why are you here?" It's Dustine who asked.He pressed his lips and ignored the question. "Just come in first.""But are we on the right address? Is Mariano Marcus living here?" Dawn asked while eyeing James curiously.To be honest, the two of them didn't hold grudges against him. They believe what happened in the past is now in the past and no future can change it. No matter how bad the damage is, they forgive them. It's hard to live when you bury something heavy in your chest, it's an everyday burden and forgiveness is the only way for it to lift."Yeah. He lived here."
51: FoundAn orange scenery fueled his hungry eyes as he opened the window and let the clean air pass through his nostrils and skins."Honey!" He called.He can hear footsteps beginning to get aloud as it nears his direction."Tsk. Here's your coffee, Love." She rolled her eyes but giggled after he snaked his arms around his waist and kissed her seductively. When the kiss went deeper she pushed him to break it, he only chuckled."It's early in the morning, Dustine." She informed him, raising a brow.Dustine like a lost puppy pouted. "So what?"
50: Give Up "Dawn…" slowly she opened her eyes and saw the familiar ceiling. A curve finds its own way to mark her lips. She turned to the side to see her mother Polina. After everything that had happened, they finally settled on the truth, they've unfold the underlying truths beneath the lies. "Finally, you're awake. The food is ready." Polina announces. Dawn nodded and said: "I'll fix myself first, mother." "Okay." It's been a year since the incident between them and Xio. Luckily, they won and Xio died.
49: Fire it Jasper turns to the side only to see Xio go crazy because of her laugh. He gasped and his one hand immediately flew on his mouth to cover it. He even took a few steps backward. He couldn't believe it, he knew it's not her. For a chance to see who's the real person in front of them, he squeezed, opened and closed his eyes but nothing changed. It's Xio with James. They both wear white lab coats and to his horror, James is carrying off the two people he really values. "Xio!" He can't help but to shout his name. His brother, Jayco on the side. Nudge and glared at him, it's like begging him not to make any noise because it's not his fight. "Keep Quiet, Jasper!" "How can I, Brother?" &n
48: Meeting Dawn finally finished eating and James came back saying he'll be the one who'll just wash and clean up the kitchen. He insisted so Dawn just sat up in the living room doing nothing. After washing the dishes, James went out and saw her staring blankly at the portrait in the living room. The portrait consists of three young people or three children, two of them are boys and in the middle is a girl clinging her arm around those two boys' shoulders. James interrupted her by saying; "Hey! Do you want to hear the story about those three children?" Dawn smiled. She never had an awesome childhood because of the reasons and she knew that those children in the portrait have a great time spending theirs. Those children are James, Xiao and Xio's husband but dead now, Dawn didn't know
