KHLOEHER steps quickened as she walked away but not like her pacing heart, it was hard to picture and the more she tried to understand the harder it was for her to believe that what she had actually saw was real and not just her mere thoughts.When she got to her room she closed the door behind her and with her back against the cold frames of the door she placed her hands on her beating heart as if to tell it to be still.A cold tear dropped from her eyelids, when it fell on the back of her palms she was surprised at the fact that she was crying when she shouldn't be.Her brief moment of sorrow was distracted by a knock from the door.She knew it couldn't be Melvin at the door as there was no way he could have come after her.Regardlessly Khloe hesitated before opening the door, she wiped the tears from her eyes."Hello?" She said looking at the person at the door surprised, "what are you doing here?"She stared at Christopher, shocked and surprised that he was there to start with.C

MELVINASIDE the snowy weather everything else had been cold and frozen including her heart.It was the third day counting that she had seen Melvin kissing another and had her hope shattered.It wasn't easy but she did it anyway she ignored the very existence of the vampire prince, it was a tough thing to do as he was everywhere around the house but the pain she felt in her heart made it easier for her.Katherine looked around the table and there was no sign of Khloe for the second day. She was used to seeing her hang around since she was her personal maid but recently all she had gotten was flimsy excuses as to why she had refused to be at the table.Claire saw her mother looking and when her mother looked back at her and asked where Khloe was without using words she shrugged and Cast a glance toward where Melvin was as if to say he was to be held accountable for her absence.Katherine had gotten wind of the little encounter that had happened out in the cold snow right at the stabl

KHLOE POV.THE Evening was far from perfect.If there was anything she could use to describe the way she was feeling, it would literally be one of the worst days of her life and she wouldn't be exaggerating about it as she could literally feel her heart almost popping out of her chest with every step she took.Khloe walked through the hallway – It wasn't in its usual bubbling and lively and for a minute she wondered why it was this way and where everyone was.She could hear chattering from each door but all through her stay in the house she had hardly seen the hallway to be that way, that dry and isolated.She would have blamed the weather if it was still snowing but of recent it had stopped to snow and the evenings just like this was once cold had started becoming warmerThe hallway was mostly empty as she walked toward her room, she would be sleeping alone as her roommate had prior told her she would be staying at Edmund's room.She envied what the two had, it felt real the way

MELVIN The candle’s flame danced down the hall as it cast a bleak reminder of their sneaking shadow inthe darkness.The curtains blew in the light after– winter breeze as a lamp hung against the wall cast a soft glow upon their paths.Melvin let the door close slowly behind her as he let her into Claire's room, he looked to either direction of the hallway before closing the door behind them.Claire was standing by her window with her hands to her akimbo while the other held a wine glass half filled with red wine that was most noticably her favorite considering the number of times she had seen her drinking it.She looked from one sibling to another wondering why she had to be dragged into their affair, it was a place she certainly didn't want to be in.She had barely yes when he dragged her through the room to Claire's.Khloe had protested till he left her hands and let her walk voluntarily right in front of him, not once had she stopped to look back from fear of seeing every em

THERE was nothing more exciting coming from the dinning than candle flickering, beating heart and silence.A lot of silence, it was easy to read the mood of the room not because she was there behind the door with Claire shielded away from Emma's view but because the energy was so glaring to see.It was obvious there was a reacher and settler between the two, and it was most definitely clear who was whose.One fact was that the quiet seemed to be eating her deep in a way she couldn't explain, the entire drive of it crawling through her nerves at the thought of what plan B truly was.She had asked the two about it insisting they told her what it was but all they said was she was going to find out if they ever needed it.They had just one plan and that was to find a way to get Emma angry to the extent that she walked out, but clearly this was not the same Emma they knew from year's back who took fashion as a priority as even after ruining her beautiful evening dress there she was still
