Year 1853“Oh, I almost kissed you and gave mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. Thank goodness you're awake,” Xander sighed. His hands cleaned the remnants of dirt stuck to her hair.Thea was still panting heavily.She played in the water and almost drowned in the bath, but what she felt this time was a hundred times more painful. She felt her nose sore and her head hurt. Her chest tightened a little and her stomach constricted. Thea grabbed Xander's shirt and coughed."Can you get me out of here, Xander?" She asked.Xander's eyes widened.A second later he smiled bitterly."If you get out of here, where will you go?""I don't know. Anywhere is fine. As long as it's not here.

She couldn't stop being alert after what happened to her over and over again. Thea also wondered why Ben and the gang had been so quiet these past few days. She always thought they cooked something for her as a surprise attack. And Thea needed to get ready. As the day passes, Thea and Xander became closer than before. Actually, it made her felt happy even though there were only the two of them.  "This," One day, Xander presented her with a pocket knife. Its shape was not too big nor too small.

Year 1853 Sometimes, gray is seen as a sign of an impending storm. But in this moment, the thick gray clouds hung in the sky, marking the start of the autumn season. Miss Yerez looked at Thea and Xander who were already standing in her room before she even told them to come. She narrowed his eyes. "Why are you here so early?" Xander beat Thea and replied, “Miss Yerez, I'm sorry we barged in without permission, something's bad about to happen to Thea last night, that's why I was here since to protect her.”  "You're staying the night here?" Miss Yerez was taken aback. "What happened? Why both of you didn't inform me anything?" "It's late at night and we don't want to disturb your rest, moreover it hasn't happened yet, Miss.

"W..well, then it will be processed like the previous agreement?" The man stood up and called his Butler. "He will sort things out." After leaving his business to the butler, the man walked away.

In fact, she overheard Miss Yerez talking to the other Sisters about the upcoming adoption for Thea. At first, she didn't think anything of it, but when
