Claire gasped as Gami let go of her hand. Her tears flowed again. She felt the pain in her chest from the past. The sins she committed. All the guilt and tiredness. Now, she is free from that life.

But is her soul free from guilt? Did her death pay the guilt for the death of the vampire she loved? I do not think so. Why is her chest still heavy despite of everything?

"Let me tell you how you ended your life," said Gami who started walking.

Claire seemed to lose the ability to think and just followed. She accompanies the soul reaper in walking unlike other souls who are ahead of this soul reaper.

"Of course, I've been following you because I know it's your time. When you got to the place with the high cliff, you just left your car on the highway and approached the cliff. You apologized to Jacob several times before you finally jumped. When you fell down, your head hit a large chunk of rocks. Your skull was cracked. But then, the moment you landed, you didn't know that the vampire was f

    "In exchange for me returning to the world as Claire?""Yes. But while you're still working on our deal, I'll take your memory first. Maybe you'll cheat on me and do your unfinished business before our deal is done. I'll give you your memory back when I get the soul of two illuminati. But there's more!"Gami raised one leg on the center table, then propped his elbow on his knee and then caught his chin facing her. Claire could only see his red lips. And his smile seemed to have a deep meaning."I'll light your life candle, Claire. Forty-five days. You have to make the deal within forty-five days. When your life candle runs out and you haven't done what I'm asking you to do, then the deal is over.""Wait... just wait. What’s life candle?" Claire seemed to want to panic about the condition. What if she can't do that within forty-five days?"Don't you have unfinished business? You have an allotted time to resolve that or else you will become a soul reaper with no memory of your past life

    As soon as Jacob entered the night bar, his eyes caught what he was looking for. It was a party of a group enjoying themselves in the hidden part of that noisy and chaotic bar.Jacob walked closer to the group which if he is not mistaken is a group of those who made a deal with the bad elements in exchange for a huge wish and is called the illuminati in the country. He was staring at a particular woman that he couldn't mistake for anyone else. He could feel the familiar loss of his heart. He could smell its appetizing blood energy. He only felt that with one woman... Claire. The mortal he loved and thought betrayed him. What happened twenty years ago would not have happened if he was not late to save her.Remembering the old days, it made a deep prick inside his heart. And it's as if yesterday is happening now.As he got closer, the woman's form became clearer and Jacob's heart beat faster.She was kind of different now. So wild, so hot, and alluringly sexy.But like before, Claire st

    Claire has to finish the mission within forty-five days. Or else, she would be dead!She will be definitely dead."What happened to you? Why are you like that? Have you traded your soul for a short life in this world? Tell me, what did you do and you're here again? Who did you trade life with? What are the conditions you did? Answer me!"Claire was stunned. “What is this man talking about? Is he going crazy? What does he know about my life? If he speaks it's as if he's known me for a long time." she said to herself. "Please let me go, Mister! I also have things to do. My time is really precious and I don't have time to talk to you!" She struggled furiously.Jacob still hasn't released her. Instead, he grabbed her by the waist to get closer to her body.Claire began to feel feelings she didn't know how to explain. “Who was this man, really?”Claire stared at him for a long time. And she couldn't understand why she seemed to see a mixture of anger and excitement in the boy's fiery blue

    "So, the witch did come back!"Jacob turned to see Zara but he didn't say anything more. He was more focused on his own grin as he watched Claire re-enter the bar with the man. “The nerve of that man to touch her!” he said to himself.What does he care? What and he's squealing? Shouldn't he not care anymore?Jacob is a big fool. Yes him. He is the fool. Because of the weakness of the trust he has for the mortal. He heard from Mia's mind, once she was walking in the darkness of the night with too much guilt. She lost one of his friends because of greed. Mia copied Claire's research about his skin and led the girl to discover his condition. It was preceded by insecurity because it strongly believes that if Claire gives the answer to the mystery of his skin, Claire will become famous. It will be preceded by the girl who will reach the top of the victory. So, she deceived the girl. Preceded before taking a step. Claire knew nothing of what was happening to her at that time. But Mia's poin

    Claire's chest was completely attacked by nervousness. Who is this? Is this also a madman like the handsome man in gothic attire earlier? She seems to be a victim of mistaken identity.Claire struggled again and planned to explain but to her shock, the stranger just grabbed her by the waist, then firmly grabbed her chin. His fingers almost sunk into her cheek with the pressure of his grip. It was as if her bones would break from the tightness of his grip.Why can't he get away? Gami have carried her to the mortal world, why hasn't he been given superpowers yet? So that she can defend herself in dangerous situations like that."Will you come with me or will I take your soul?" his dangerous threat."Wait, who are you? What do you need from me?!" Claire wanted to complain because she was really terrified of the dangerous feeling that the man brought. But she insisted on fighting. She need to fight.The man smiled sarcastically.

    "I can’t believe this! I can't believe you!"Jacob didn't understand Zara's angry look when they got back to the house. He was more focused on what he saw and happened earlier. Claire is rescued by a soul reaper and claims to own the woman's soul. Did that mean that a corrupt soul reaper helped Claire earlier? And they probably have a deal. How long is the deal? Claire definitely has a time limit. What kind of deal did she accept with the soul reaper?But why does Claire have to pretend she doesn't remember anything? Wait a minute. It might... it might that she doesn’t remember anything. Claire's memory could be in the soul reaper.What is your plan, Claire? Why did you come back to life?"I don't understand you anymore! I thought we understood each other!" he heard Zara's angry look again."What's happening here?" Tyler seemed to wake up to Zara’s screaming. Tyler slept at their house.

She left the pathway and sat on the bench.Claire was getting a little annoyed. This kind of company is not in her job description but she is always dragged everywhere he goes. She is said to eat wherever he goes. And as a nutritionist, she has an obligation to find out if the food he will eat is right.Claire let it go. Maybe there will be a good result.

    "Where's Kaitlin?"Milla don't want to ask that but it's necessary. She hadn't seen the woman since her family arrived there. She wants to know everything about the house they will live in temporarily."She's in her room. She's not feeling well," Renz answered."Is she sick?""No, she just feels bad."Milla immediately suspected something bad happened. If the woman isn't sick, if she wasn't wounded in a fight or bitten by a wolf and didn't come down to meet them, there must be something wrong."Doesn't she want us here?" Milla asked."Oh, no. She doesn't care about that. We are just having a few personal problems. You don't have to worry about her."Milla did not comment further. She no longer cares if their problems are personal. She continued to walk. Renz followed her. She waits for what he has to say as if it won't come and she drowns in the tension between them."Shall we talk about the plan?" Milla reminded."Oh, that. Yes, of course. I just suddenly remembered when I left you o

    The helicopter still in the air, Milla already knew something bad had happened. A distant view of the smoke coming from the location of the estate. The underground town is under the mansion and the entire subdivision where it resides."Renz, w-what do you think is going on?" Milla asked.He didn't say a word and maneuvered the helicopter down. He immediately slung the bag containing the weapons over his shoulder and ran through the estate. Surrounding the subdivision, are the members of the Armată. Renz immediately asked one of them. They find out that Rollin blew up Rasulo three hours ago. Many were killed, the estate and the houses in the subdivision collapsed. For now, the situation is under control although the lives lost cannot be brought back.Milla's steps are fast to find her daughter. She immediately saw her, along with her grandmother. The girl was holding the Barbie doll and the music box that Renz had given her before."Are you all right, sweetie?"Ryana nodded."When we h

    "You didn't have to come here, Renz!"Milla was irritated again when she saw Renz at the door. She was ready for a bloody fight when she felt the presence of their kind outside the cabin. Laura would never linger outside the house so she thought it was an enemy. Renz was the only one there."You might be late.""You've been walking around outside for a while.""I was checking security."Milla can't accept that Renz will join her on a mission but she can't do anything. She also couldn't give up her job. She will not be content in a quiet place if she knows that she is not doing anything to end the ongoing war. Maybe one day, she will wake up without her daughter. She can't forgive herself when it happens.When the bedroom door opened, she immediately turned to her daughter. She just held the walking doll while staring at Renz. "Go back to your room, Ryana."A few moments passed before she obeyed. She carried her bag. There were her weapons."You gave her such a masculine name. Why coul

    ‘My life was quiet, you came again and all my strategies were ruined again. I really hate you, Renz!’ Milla was restless. Renz is determined to tell the Consilium about her. She just agreed because she was given no other choice. Apart from that, she is also struggling to find out where she lives, if she is safe there because Rollin's men are said to be scattered all over Romania. Rollin wanted his homeland to be the center of his power. Rather than Renz finding out about their son, she preferred to agree with him, comforting him for the time being by agreeing to appear before the Consilium. But she will not allow him to come to her house.As soon as they entered Rasulo, nostalgia filled Milla's heart. It had been a long time since she last went there but it was still as beautiful as before."Do you remember our many dates here?" Ren asked her."Shut up!" she returned irritated."What's wrong with you?""I'm not happy when married men want to reminisce with me," she blurted out.Renz i

    "Renz, this is a very important mission."Renz immediately nodded at what Sorin said. The mission was not sanctioned by the entire Council. Only the two Supremes Sorin and Stevan know."You are going there alone and once and for all, will find out if there is indeed a mercenary."Renz nodded again. Even if the two didn't say it, he knew they doubted Laura. Laura always carries information that is said to be from one of her trusted personnel. No one knows who that person of Laura is or if there is such a thing. Although all the information from that "mercenary" helped a lot, they didn't know if it was true. What if Laura herself, is just making up all those stories and her loyalty has also changed? Information can be helpful, but it might just be a pitfall in a larger plan.It seemed impossible but at this time they could not trust anyone. Their allies are turning their backs, loyal allies are doubting their ability. Rollin's time had come.What Renz witnessed that Rollin did in some o

    "Are you all right?"Milla couldn't answer Ryan's question. They were already on the plane and she hadn't slept much. Her eyes were puffy and she was sweating coldly while suppressing body tremors. She knew that her bad feelings weren't just because she was angry. Something inside of her was crippling her. She would have thought that she also had typhoid fever from there but she was not in the last mission where they went to drink water from there."What are you feeling?"That's when Milla's stomach felt a terrible pain. Almost all the passengers looked at her, maybe because of the loudness of her shouting. They were immediately attended to by flight attendants.Milla screamed several times inside the plane. Unfortunately, they were going to Singapore and the trip was short.When the plane landed, an ambulance was waiting and she was taken to the nearest hospital. They tested her. She was hooked on dextrose. The pain does not go away and she is crying because of that."You're pregnant

    It's like Milla is back to being a teenager. She didn't know what to wear. She even bought a new dress at a mall for that day. She and Renz will talk in depth later because they haven't been able to talk clearly in the past because of Kaitlin's appearance.That time, She would make sure everything was clear between them. She hopes that the result of their heart-to-heart talk will be good. She saw no other reason for Renz's words than that they shared the same feelings. It was obvious. Renz himself said that if his feelings for her were simply love for a friend, he wouldn't have done all that. Maybe Renz is only now realizing his feelings. Maybe like all men in the world, he had to experience what the world can offer before understanding that there is only one woman who is different from everyone else and the one, he loves and wants.“That's me!" Milla laughed and spoke. She was so happy that she couldn't hold a single thought in her head.It was only three in the afternoon, when Renz

    "You're awfully quiet."Mill turned to Ryan. They are in a lodge and tomorrow they will drive to another province. Their mission in the Province is over. She just couldn't help but regret because she didn't see Renz. He didn't know when she got here that she was in the province. She is not sure if his cousin said that.According to Renz’s cousin, Renz also at that place but the man chose not to show himself. What exactly is new there? Why is she still sad? Didn't she decide that that phase of her life with him was over?"I'm just missing my family," she just said to Ryan."Are you going to be, okay?"Milla answered with a nod and a smile. She went to her room. She sighed steadily while peering out the window. Renz’s cousin said, he will just watch until they leave. He did not appear to his companions but before they returned to the plains, he appeared to her. He was a kind guy, indeed, and funny, too.‘Renz, you jerk. Why am I missing you so much?’ Milla decided to lie down. They stil

    "She's looking at you. Damn."Renz secretly winced at what his cousin said. They were in a pub and there is a nice woman looking at Renz. It wasn't the first time something like that had happened. "Sorry, cousin.""Hey, don't tell me you're sorry, man. You're adding insult to injury."Renz laughed. He glanced at his cousin female target. She was so beautiful, all right. He likes Latina. She is... What exactly does he want in a woman? But he no longer knows now. He had tried them all. And he vowed to keep on trying. When he promised Ronnie's grandmother he would not take her away, a part of his life stopped and a new and different life began.He made it begin, forced himself for it to begin. He taught himself to play and join the dance that he should have been joining. Why couldn't he be like his cousin who would screw any pretty lady who was interested in him? He planted in his mind what his mother had said."You're at the prime of your life-live well or regret not having lived. Go ou
